"White Zetsu, find Naruto Uzumaki. Tell him that if he wants to save the One-Tails Jinchuriki, he should come here alone!"
After setting his sights on Naruto, Nagato immediately gave the order to the White Zetsu Clone beside him.
Originally, Nagato had felt that it did not matter who he chose.
But according to Disonas's intelligence, Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze's strength was somewhat beyond expectations.
If he ended up drawing Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze here, there was a real possibility that the man would simply rescue the One-Tails Jinchuriki in the end.
So, just to be safe, although Nagato wanted to meet his Senior Brother, he could only postpone it for now.
He would not allow any accident to ruin his plan!
As for why Minato was his Senior Brother rather than Junior Brother—
First, Jiraiya had taken Minato as a disciple before him. Second, Minato was indeed somewhat older than Nagato, Konan, and Yahiko.
Of course, whether it was Senior Brother or Junior Brother did not really matter.
Nagato called Minato that mostly to tease him.
"Yes, Leader. I'll go find Naruto Uzumaki right away!"
After receiving Nagato's order, White Zetsu immediately responded.
Then, just as he had arrived, the White Zetsu Clone burrowed underground.
Afterward, Nagato turned his gaze back ahead.
There stood a red-haired young man with the character for "love" carved into the left side of his forehead.
This young man was none other than the One-Tails Jinchuriki Gaara, whom Nagato had already found!
Now sixteen or seventeen, Gaara could indeed be called a young man.
In the original story, Gaara should have become the Fifth Kazekage two or three years ago.
However, because of the butterfly effect caused by Soji, Fourth Kazekage Rasa had not died. Thus, Gaara becoming the Fifth Kazekage had become nothing
