The Shepherd Who Shall Not Die Peacefully

Nagato's dark eyes clearly contained a powerful hostility.

"As long as I find Hyuga Hoheto and take away the wooden platform when he came from the moon, I can fly to the moon and find Otsutsuki's clan."

Nagato's low voice sounded in this dark underground cave.

He still did not know the news that Otsutsuki's clan had self-destructed.

What was even more unknown was that the blind Toneri who was killed by Yuuji was actually the only descendant of Otsutsuki.

Nagato placed his hopes on the moon, wanting to find a way to repair Rinnegan or compare to Rinnegan's eyes.

Since they call themselves Senju, Uchiha, Uzumaki, and Hyuga's ancestors, and are the source of the bloodline of Ninja World's powerful race, they must have powerful eyes. They might be able to recover my Rinnegan.

A hint of anticipation appeared on Nagato's face.

He thought of Otsutsuki Isshiki.

The strange guy who had somehow lost his mind and parasitized a bear was ridiculously strong.

Nagato knew very well that although he defeated and killed Isshiki, one of the reasons was because Isshiki was too weak.

Even Hitomi didn't use his technique, but Isshiki's body couldn't take it and died.

"Unfortunately, it would be great if Otsutsuki and Toneri were still alive. It would be a waste to let Madara kill them." Nagato said with a cold face.

Konan said, "Hyuga Hoheto seems to have grasped the eyes that surpass Byakugan. You better be careful when facing that guy. If it really doesn't work, I can also take action."

Nagato shook his head. "No, just stay by my side and protect my body. No matter how strong Hoheto is, he can only kill my six Pain at most. Moreover, he can't win against me."

Konan looked at Nagato in confusion.

Why was Nagato still so confident when he was already in such a situation?

She didn't know how strong Hyuga Hoheto was, but his eyes surpassed Byakugan's. No matter what, he was at Mangekyou Sharingan's level, and that Hoheto was Kage-level.

They didn't know much about Hoheto, and they didn't know what technique he was better at.

The current Nagato couldn't exert Rinnegan's strength. If he only relied on six Pain, could he win against Hoheto?

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

Nagato said in a low voice.

Soon, the new six path pain began to act.

Nagato and Konan also followed from afar, hiding their tracks and leaving Amegakure.

...

All these years, Hyuga Hoheto had been wandering around Ninja World.

"In the blink of an eye, several years have passed."

Hyuga Hoheto walked on the barren land. He wore a black robe around him, looking like a very ordinary pedestrian.

However, if anyone provoked him, they would definitely die a miserable death.

Hyuga Hoheto was the real Kage-level.

All these years, he was like a ghost, shuttling back and forth in Ninja World's countries, but most of the time, he still wandered in the Fire Country.

He had nowhere to go.

The Eye Organization did not accept him. Akatsuki was not interested, and Konohagakure could not go back. As for contacting his own kind, it was even more impossible. Under the control of clansmen, the many branch families might betray him.

"What a boring world. It's so cold that it makes people shiver." Hoheto glanced at the sky.

The sun hung high in the sky.

Most of the time, Hoheto just sat in one place and quietly watched the scenery in front of him. He watched the stars and Dragon change, and the world changed.

To put it more bluntly, he had become a lot more Buddhist.

There was no other way. No one would be able to remain calm after witnessing the earth-shattering great battle.

In his eyes, Otsutsuki, who originally held a giant Tenseigan in his hand and was almost invincible, was fooled by Yuuji and attacked Ninja World in anger, but he died on the spot.

Hoheto basically understood the whole process, and he increasingly did not dare to move.

Even a pure-blooded Otsutsuki who could control a giant Tenseigan would die at Ninja World's hands, let alone him.

"Unfortunately, that giant Tenseigan doesn't belong to me" Hoheto had a complicated expression.

He clearly knew that there were definitely many promising Yuuji clones in his body that were dormant, ready to explode at any moment and kill him here.

Moreover, this terrifying man, Shiranui Yuuji, also had a Rinnegan.

"That Rinnegan of yours is actually Hitomi's, right? For some reason, Hitomi plucked one of his own Rinnegan and gave it to you... What exactly is your relationship?"

A gentle breeze blew, and Hoheto murmured in a low voice.

He was talking to Yuuji's clone in his body, and he knew that Yuuji would definitely hear it.

However, it was clear that Yuuji's clone was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Everything around him was quiet. Hoheto just "talked to himself" while looking at the scenery in front of him.

Hoheto had imagined countless times that Yuuji was already so powerful without using Rinnegan. If he used Rinnegan together, how strong would he be?

And such a strong Yuuji was in contact with Hitomi. What were these two planning?

Or could it be that there was something in this world that was worthy of the two of them working together?

Hoheto could not understand.

Suddenly.

Swish!

A White Zetsu emerged from a tree.

"Eh ---I actually found you in this place." White Zetsu used a strange tone and looked at Hoheto with joy.

"You are Akatsuki's ? No, the real thing should be half black and half white. Why is your entire body completely white?" Hoheto glanced at him and remained indifferent.

"Because I'm just an avatar, and the whole ninja world is looking for your whereabouts. If it depends on the main body, similarly he can't find you." White Zetsu's whole body got out.

"So that's how it is. I understand. To a certain extent, you are also a very troublesome fellow."

Hoheto looked up and down at White Zetsu, but he did not make a move immediately.

The more he looked, the more he thought of the scene where Yuuji grew up from his body.

It seemed that Yuuji was somewhat similar to White Zetsu...?

Heh, it doesn't matter, there is no difference whether it looks like or not.

Hoheto sat there calmly and looked at White Zetsu indifferently. He did not do anything.

There was no questioning purpose, control, or killing.

This kind of calmness made even White Zetsu's clone feel strange.

"Aren't you going to ask me why I came to you?"

"No need, you are just a clone. When the person behind you comes, I will naturally know." Hoheto's Buddha Element was not good.

It made White Zetsu's clone not know what to say.

After a while.

Another White Zetsu came out.

"Another clone?"

"No, this time it's the main body, but I'm in charge of leading the way. The real big shot is behind me."

After a while, the time seemed to be ripe. White Zetsu slapped the ground hard.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Six puffs of smoke rose up into the air.

"Oh? Spirit Communication Technique?" Hoheto looked over and was stunned.

He saw six White Zetsu dressed in black.

But these six White Zetsu were very strange. Left eye Rinnegan, right eye Sharingan.

"Rinnegan, are you Nagato's Pain Rikudou Sennin?" Everyone said that you were killed by Yuuji in the great battle two years ago. It seems to be false, but what happened to your eyes? " Hoheto frowned and finally began to be serious.

Why is there only one eye...

Did someone dig out his eyes? The one controlling Pain, Rikudou Sennin, was no longer Nagato, or was Nagato blind?

Moreover, what about Black-Zetsu?

Hoheto had only heard of the world-shaking war between Nagato and Yuuji, and knew that Nagato had been defeated and killed.

But looking at it now, that might not be the case.

"Looks like you don't know anything."

One of Pain said coldly, "Hyuga Hoheto, join Akatsuki. I have specially reserved a spot for you. With your strength, you can bring peace to this world with me."

"Impossible. I have no interest in Akatsuki. I have no interest in peace." Hoheto shook his head.

With that terrifying man around, how could the other party bring peace?

"Hey, hey, hey. Are you not afraid of death? Apart from those few people, no one dares to directly refuse the leader." White Zetsu shouted from the side.

Hoheto had an indifferent expression.

The expressions of the six Pain remained unchanged, and they said with paralyzed faces, "You have given up an excellent opportunity. You will definitely regret it in the future. Then, give me the tool that you used to travel between Ninja World and the moon. I need it."

"Are you talking about that broken wooden platform?" Hoheto frowned and was extremely surprised.

It was actually for this?

"You want to go to the moon? It really surprised me, but it's even more impossible. This is my thing, I definitely can't give it to you." Hoheto's attitude was very unyielding.

What a joke, there was still a giant Tenseigan on the moon. He had always had thoughts in his eyes.

If Yuuji wanted it, then Hoheto had no choice. Before he had the power to fight against Yuuji, he would not fight for it.

If Yuuji did not want it, he would naturally take it.

Taking another step back, through the giant Tenseigan, he could also see the possibility of piling his semi-finished Eye Cleansing into Tenseigan in one go!!

Tenseigan, according to Toneri, was a supreme eye that could rival Rinnegan!!

This was Hoheto's greatest ambition. Similarly, this was the only way he could find deep in his heart to get rid of Yuuji's control.

Freedom, future, strength, these were all on the moon.

Pain stared coldly at Hoheto. "If you don't agree, then I can only use my martial power to seize it. The moment you die, you will regret rejecting God's proposal."

Hoheto's expression changed slightly, as if he was facing a great enemy.

He was now basically sure that the one talking to him was Nagato himself.

Although there seemed to be a big problem with Nagato, so much so that he had to use Pain to take action, he was actually beyond Kage-level.

It had been a long time since Hoheto had felt this kind of heartbeat acceleration and tension in his nerves.

Six Pain rushed over at the same time, their speed astonishing.

They even stared at Hoheto with their strange eyes.

Hoheto immediately slapped the huge scroll hanging at the back of his waist. With just a slap, the scroll immediately shook, and a large amount of runes gushed out, bringing a large amount of Hitomi's strength to support it.

His pair of Byakugan also immediately underwent a slight transformation. A few threads of blue light that were almost imperceptible appeared in Hitomi's eyes, and a considerable amount of Hitomi's strength was brewing in his eyes.

This was also the first time that Nagato had seen Byakugan advance.

"Using the power of Hitomi sealed in the scroll to forcibly raise the level of the eyes, what a rough method. When the power of Hitomi in your scroll is exhausted, you will forever lose this kind of eyes."

Pain surrounded Hoheto from multiple directions, and instantly launched an attack.

The six puppets shared vision and were controlled by Nagato's thoughts. It was enough to become the nightmare of most ninjas.

But Hoheto was not afraid of this.

Because his eyes had a field of vision of 360 degrees, and he had the ability to see far!

The range that his eyes could see was much wider than what the six Pain could see!

"Eight Trigrams Palm --" 

Hoheto attacked, creating a huge storm with a diameter of more than ten meters. In one breath, he blocked all the attacks of the six Pain.

"You're right. My strength will drop permanently if I lose the supply of Hitomi's strength. But the problem is that you can't delay the battle until that time. Hyuga's clan has accumulated over a thousand years. clansmen has oppressed the branch family for several hundred years. The amount of Hitomi's strength accumulated is terrifying!"

When Caged Bird Curse was developed, this scroll would start to absorb Hitomi's power from the deceased branch family!

How could the huge amount of Hitomi's power reserves that had been accumulated over a long period of time be so easily exhausted?

"I don't need to exhaust your Hitomi power. I just need to directly deal with you."

The six Pain were sent flying, but they were not fatally injured.

The one with the heaviest injuries was still Human Path, who was at the front to test. Dense palm prints were blasted out from the injuries on his body, and the astonishing chakra storm also tore large wounds on the surface of Human Path.

But it was not meaningful.

It was very difficult for White Zetsu to be killed, not to mention that he had been modified by Nagato.

Hell Path summoned Yama's head and swallowed Human Path in one gulp, spitting it out a few seconds later.

The Human Path came out unscathed.

White Zetsu, who had long been hiding in the distance, mocked loudly, "It's useless. Pain six path is an extremely perfect technique. It can't be destroyed so easily! Nagato abandoned Pain six path because the enemy was too strong. Do you also think you are strong?"

Hoheto also looked at it with a shocked face, deep in thought.

"You can see the technique of the Path of Hell?" A Pain asked.

"That's right. Is that the King of Hell from the legends? The King of Hell is responsible for judging the souls of the dead. It is very reasonable for him to repair Pain."

Hoheto suppressed the shock in his heart.

With this pair of semi-finished clean eyes, he could only vaguely see a huge head appear out of thin air.

According to his analysis, if the soul was caught by the Path of Hell and extracted, he would surely be able to see the complete King of Hell.

Pain six path... This was only one of Rinnegan's abilities, but it was already so difficult to deal with.

The Path of the Human World and Path of Hell both had the ability to kill instantly. One could erase the consciousness with a touch, and the other could extract the soul and revive other Pain. It was best to deal with these two ghosts first.

The six Pain launched their attacks again.

After the test ended, the six Pain took out their respective Hitomi techniques and charged towards Hoheto!

Just as Hoheto was being besieged by Pain.

Far away, Yuuji also received the information sent back by his clone.

"Nagato wants to land on the moon? This is meaningless."

Yuuji couldn't help but shake his head.

Otsutsuki's clan had already died, so it was impossible for them to provide help to Nagato.

Even if they didn't die, the first thing the clan would do when they saw Nagato wouldn't be to communicate, but to directly rush up to kill him.

The Gedo Statue that their Otsutsuki clan had guarded for generations was stolen by the owner of Rinnegan. This was the shame of the descendants of Hamura!

It would be strange if they didn't go crazy when they saw Nagato.

"The only valuable thing is the giant Tenseigan, but I have taken a fancy to this eye. I can't give it to Nagato."

Yuuji pondered for a moment.

According to his estimation, Hoheto would not lose against Pain six path, but it would be hard to say if he included Konan, the one who released the explosive talisman.

"Forget it. I can use Hoheto's hand to try that thing."

Yuuji was moved. Takamagahara opened it. He stretched out his hand and pulled out Toneri's soul.
