"Swish!" Chen Fan lowered the Kusanagi Sword slightly. Its sharp edge cut through Yahiko's skin. Nagato's expression did not change, but Konan's face turned ugly. This man was too despicable.
"It's not just you who can summon the Gedo Statue, because the Gedo Statue was never yours to begin with," Chen Fan said calmly.
Nagato frowned slightly. Naturally, he could sense the Gedo Statue's location. That man who called himself Uchiha Madara had taken it away to cultivate Zetsu's body.
That man had always harbored ulterior motives. Though Nagato had long been wary of him, they had merely been using each other for their own purposes. As for someone else being able to summon the Gedo Statue, he did not believe it. Without the Rinnegan, such a thing was simply impossible.
