Yahiko struggled to get up from Obito's arms.
He ran toward Konan nearby.
"Konan, are you okay?"
"I... I'm fine..."
Konan said she was fine, but her head was actually ringing.
She lay in Yahiko's arms, unable to stand at all.
As for Nagato, who had unleashed that terrifying power just now...
He seemed to have been drained of every ounce of strength.
His legs buckled, and he collapsed helplessly toward the ground.
Fortunately, Obito reached him in time again, catching him with quick hands.
Nagato's eyes were filled with rage.
One look into those fathomless eyes felt like staring into an abyss.
"Daibutsu... Kyūsuke... How dare they! I'll kill them!"
Obito inwardly cursed.
His hand reacted faster than his brain, landing a slap across Nagato's face with a smack.
"Hm?"
Nagato turned his icy gaze on Obito.
He seemed to be considering whether to treat Obito to a Spicy Tensei.
Shimatta!
Obito shuddered under his stare, countless thoughts flashing through his mind.
He heaved sigh after sigh, beating his chest and stamping his feet.
With an expression of heartfelt anguish, he said to Nagato,
"Snap out of it, Nagato!"
"You hate those people so much, and you've fought them for so long. Are you going to become one of them in the end?!"
"No ideal in this world is worth sinking that low!!"
Obito's heartfelt words struck a chord deep within Nagato.
A glimmer of clarity passed through his mind.
Nagato's whole body slackened, and he murmured guiltily,
"I... I failed to control that power again... I even hurt everyone..."
By then...
Konan had recovered somewhat, too.
Her health bar might have been a little short, but her regeneration was fairly quick.
With Yahiko supporting her...
Konan came over to Nagato and gently placed a hand on his shoulder.
