Naruto: Sasuke Reborn – No Clan Massacre! No Injustice！

Naruto's kunai pierced the tree trunk, creating a cavity in the tree made of paper. The two of them stepped in steadily, and sure enough, Nagato was inside.

Nagato, gaunt with prominent bones, was sitting in a huge apparatus. Dozens of black rods were stuck in his back. He looked so frail that it seemed he could pass away at any moment.

A blue-haired woman stood beside him, warily eyeing Sasuke and Naruto with an aggressive gaze constantly sweeping over them.

"You're Nagato," Naruto said, a bit shocked to see that the mastermind behind all this was in such a state.

"Humph, so what if I am? Naruto Uzumaki, if you think you can beat me like this, You're being way too naive!"

Saying that, Nagato clasped his hands together to launch another attack, but was interrupted by Naruto's crisp voice.

"Wait a minute. I'm not here to fight you. Perverted Hermit just sent me a message, hoping I could have a chat with you. Even if we're going to have a life-and-death battle later, as Perverted Hermit's disciples, can't we have a talk now?"

Naruto looked at Nagato sincerely. To be honest, Nagato didn't seem like an extremely evil person to him. Why did he attack Konoha, which had never wronged him?

It was all so strange. And creating an ideal world with the tailed beasts? An ideal world? Can you really make it happen just like this?

If it could be done, then why didn't the Six Paths Sage, who had powers dozens of times stronger than theirs back then, do it?

...

"Alright, tell me what you want to talk about first."

"Why did you attack Perverted Hermit? He was the master who saved you from misery and taught you ninjutsu, yet you almost killed him!"

Nagato lowered his head and fell silent, recalling the time when Perverted Hermit taught them skills. That could be said to be one of the few happy times in his life.

"There's no special reason. I want to build a new world, and right now, Perverted Hermit is an obstacle to me, so I have to kill him!"

Nagato looked at Naruto seriously, but Naruto's fists tightened involuntarily. He could feel that Nagato wasn't lying, but such an answer only made him angrier.

This bastard in front of him, did he even know what he was saying and doing?

"Okay, the second question. Why are you capturing the tailed beasts? According to the information we've got, you need a huge amount of chakra to create a new world. But can you really make it happen just like this?"

"Yes!"

Nagato's answer was firm, without the slightest hesitation, which only puzzled Naruto more. A ninja of Nagato's level should know that such a thing could never be achieved through ninjutsu. Who on earth had told him this wrong information?

"You answered quite straightforwardly. Then let me ask you, how are you going to fulfill this wish?"

"Nagato!"

"" Nagato was about to speak when he was interrupted. Konan frowned discontentedly and looked at Nagato. She always respected Nagato's wishes, but the matter Naruto asked about was too confidential. That Madara Uchiha behind the scenes would definitely not agree to them telling the truth.

If Nagato told the truth, the next one to get into trouble might very well be Nagato himself.

"Things have come to this, and we can't keep it a secret anymore. No matter in what form, we've lost this war, Konan."

Konan couldn't persuade Nagato and could only turn her head away in a huff.

"Many years ago, a man who claimed to be Madara Uchiha approached me. At that time, Yahiko had just died. As a friend, I was completely disheartened. Just then, he told me that he could create a world without pain. In this world, Yahiko would also be alive, and all of us would be happy and together."

"We experienced the Third Great Ninja World War since childhood, and life has always been extremely difficult. It wasn't until we met Jiraiya that he was willing to teach us skills. Only then did life gradually get better. But after all, Jiraiya couldn't teach us forever. He left, and Yahiko died. Those who were left behind only had a heart full of grief and didn't know how to vent it..."

Nagato looked up, closed his eyes gently, and recalled the past. His whole body was shrouded in a thick layer of sadness.

"So when Madara Uchiha found me, I almost didn't hesitate and agreed to him.

Now that I think about it, although this might be a trap, people always need something to look forward to when they're alive. Even if it's a trap, I'm willing to give it a try."

"Nagato..."

Naruto understood how Nagato felt. It was like a beam of light suddenly shining down after being abandoned by the whole world. This special beam of light was something he desperately wanted to hold onto.

"What's the method? I believe you wouldn't believe that man who claimed to be an Uchiha without a specific method to create a world!"

Nagato sighed. Naruto's eyes were very similar to Yahiko's. Looking into Naruto's eyes, Nagato felt as if he was talking to the deceased Yahiko and wanted to pour out all the secrets he had suppressed in his heart.

"Collect the Chakra of the One - Tailed to the Nine - Tailed Fox, and use the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path to absorb the Chakra of the tailed beasts to realize the Moon's Eye Plan."

"The Moon's Eye Plan?"

"Project a Genjutsu called Infinite Tsukuyomi onto the moon so that everyone on the entire Earth will live in the genjutsu and create a peaceful world without war!"

"It's hard not to be shocked." After all, what Nagato said was highly similar to the secrets that Sasuke had discovered in the ninja world. This meant that the rival was really up to such a scheme behind the scenes.

"Nagato, do you think living in a world of genjutsu is truly living? Your friend has already died. Even if he is resurrected in the genjutsu, he isn't truly resurrected. The peace in the genjutsu is definitely not real peace!"

"I don't care about that! As long as there's the slightest hope, I'll never give up. Even if it's in the genjutsu, I want them to be alive!"

"So you think the life of your teacher, the Perverted Hermit, doesn't matter to you. Because no matter what you do, you can resurrect him within the world of Genjutsu, and you can still enjoy this false world within the Genjutsu without a shred of guilt!"

"What? You wanna lecture me?"

"No! All I wanna do now is punch you in the face!"

Naruto's eyes suddenly became sharp. Right after he finished speaking, he moved like lightning. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Nagato and threw a powerful punch at his gaunt face. Naruto's action stunned everyone.

"Nagato!"

Seeing Nagato being punched, Konan let out a cry of surprise. Then, her eyes full of menace, her body began to peel off layer by layer like paper, and sharp paper shards flew at Naruto at high speed.
