Nagato stared blankly at Konan as she withdrew her hand.
It was somewhat unbelievable.
"Konan, what are you doing?"
Konan first looked gently at Yahiko, then said, "Yahiko is right. We're the best of friends."
"So let me face the danger with you."
"Konan, the best choice is for you to leave with Yahiko."
Nagato did not agree with Konan staying behind. What came next would be the most dangerous time, and he did not want Konan to take risks.
Konan said firmly, "We've been together for many years and know each other better than anyone. I won't leave you behind and go alone."
"Yahiko is too weak right now."
"I hope you can help take Yahiko away, Shamu."
Nagato's brows drew tightly together.
"No, you have to leave with Yahiko. You two... you two only just reunited after so much difficulty."
Konan's gaze was resolute. "I absolutely will not leave you alone."
The situation fell into a deadlock for a moment.
Shamu sighed.
"Nagato, stop arguing. Konan definitely won't abandon you and leave."
Nagato fell silent for a moment. How could he not know Konan would refuse to leave? But he truly did not want her to be thrown into danger again.
He did not want to go through what had happened back then a second time.
Konan had taken care of Nagato for fifteen years, so she naturally knew what he was thinking.
That was why she refused to yield in the slightest.
"Nagato, together, we can handle most dangers. If you're alone, accidents could easily happen."
Shamu also patted Nagato on the shoulder. "You're going to inject the Hashirama Cell Solution. How can you manage without someone by your side to look after you?"
Nagato's attitude softened.
Shamu made the decision directly.
"Both of you, stop arguing.
