Believing in Satoru

Satoru's words echoed like thunder in the Amekage's office.

Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan were shocked and speechless. They exchanged glances, filled with concern.

Nagato's voice trembled: "So... Is the Gedo Mazo really a creature on the moon?"

Satoru nodded. "Yes, I believe so. Moreover, the power of the Gedo Mazo is immense. Once it truly arrives in this world, I fear it will bring unknown consequences."

Yahiko stood up from his position. "So, what should we do now?"

Satoru pondered for a moment, then said, "First, we need to know more about the Gedo Mazo. Nagato, can you recall more details about the Kuchiyose no Jutsu?"

Nagato closed his eyes and tried to remember those vague memories.

After a few moments, he opened his eyes, his voice slightly weak. "When I regained consciousness, I felt some memories surface in my mind, and it seemed like there was a voice in my head that prompted me to use the Kuchiyose no Jutsu."

"It answered my call."

"Call?" Satoru furrowed his brow. "What do you mean?"

Nagato tried to calm himself. "Yes, a call. Rather than using the Kuchiyose no Jutsu to summon the Gedo Mazo, it's better to say that I felt it summoning me."

A cold light appeared in Satoru's eyes. "In that case, we must not let it succeed. Nagato, you must reject its call and not allow it to come into this world through you."

Nagato nodded. "I understand, and I will do my best to reject its summons."

"And." Satoru suddenly changed the subject, "Why does the consciousness of that person choose to reside in your eyes?"

"This has never happened before, but when that person awakened, you were called by the Gedo Mazo. Nagato, your Rinnegan..."

"How did it awaken?"

Nagato was stunned by this question, then remembered. "It's been so long... When my parents were killed by Konoha ninja..."

At this point, a flash of light passed through his eyes.

As he became lost in his own thoughts, a pair of warm hands were placed on his shoulders. Nagato turned and saw Yahiko standing beside him, with a comforting smile on his face.

"Nagato." Yahiko said gently, "Haven't we always tried to change this troubled world? We dream of creating a world where children in the future no longer suffer."

He gently patted Nagato's shoulder and continued, "So, don't let hatred blind you. Remember, our goal is peace."

Listening to his words, Nagato's hatred gradually melted away.

"Thank you, Yahiko." He spoke slowly, "When I lost my parents, it seemed like I opened the door to a new world. Maybe the sorrow at that time awakened my Rinnegan. I used these eyes to end the lives of those two Konoha ninja."

"At that moment, I realized that my eyes held tremendous power. I was still young, yet I could defeat elite Konoha ninja. Who else could possess such power?" Nagato spoke with complexity.

"Since then, I chose to cover my eyes with my hair, not wanting others to know and burden me."

"Until I met Jiraiya-sensei." Nagato raised his head, gratitude and admiration shining in his eyes, "He made me rediscover my eyes and helped me understand the meaning and value of the Rinnegan. He showed me the right way to use these eyes, to protect others and create a better world."

"However, I didn't expect..." His voice trembled, "Over time, I gradually became confused with the power of the Rinnegan, and even for you, Satoru..."

His voice grew quieter, ashamed of his previous actions.

Satoru waved his hand gently and interjected, "It's not your fault, Nagato. The hidden consciousness deep within the Rinnegan subtly altered your personality and made you do what you did. You don't need to feel guilty for the choices you made."

"Although the hidden consciousness has been completely eliminated, but... About why he is in your Rinnegan, and who he is, we still don't know."

"But thankfully, those troubling dreams no longer disturb you. Now, our first priority is to uncover the true identity of that man."

Satoru's voice made Nagato feel a warm flow in his heart.

Thus, the image of the large blue humanoid armor suddenly appeared in Satoru's mind.

He thought about it carefully, but found no relevant parts in his memory.

Perhaps the ninjutsu used by that person would be the key to uncovering his identity.

"Nagato, if you feel unable to resist the call of the Gedo Mazo, you must inform me in time."

Many Fuinjutsu recorded in the Seal Scrolls came to Satoru's mind, and a confident smile appeared on his lips. "When that person appears again, I will deal with him properly."

"Don't be stingy with the power of the Rinnegan, and don't worry about that person. Because you have the Rinnegan, I believe you will be the one to change the world."

Satoru's words made Nagato feel a warm current flowing in his heart.

"Satoru..."

This time, Konan walked up from the side and gently patted Nagato's back. "Nagato, don't be too touched. Satoru is here! We are a team, Nagato, you have to trust us!"

"Trust in Satoru."

Nagato nodded, unsure if the hidden consciousness in his mind had disappeared. He felt a heavy burden lifted from his heart, and he felt more relaxed and peaceful than ever before.

"Thank you all..."
