After hearing Konan's words, Nagato fell silent.
The dream they had once pursued together seemed to have slowly strayed off course without them noticing.
And was that so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi really the right answer?!
He recalled what Madara Uchiha had told him, and the idea that the world had to feel pain to understand it.
It was rather extreme...
