In the ninja world engulfed by war, Nagato Uzumaki awakened his samsara eye in blood and tears. The shadow of his parents' tragic death and the struggle to survive in troubled times made him, Yahiko and Konan dependent on each other, and they planted the seeds of "unity in the ninja world" in despair.
Jiraiya's teachings lit up hope, and the three of them founded "Akatsuki", hoping to exchange non-violence for peace. But Hanzo and Danzo's conspiracy tore everything apart - Yahiko died, Nagato lost his legs, and hatred gave birth to the Six Paths of Pain. He used pain as a shackle, trying to force the world to realize peace, but in the duel with Naruto, his pure faith was shaken.
When the natural art of reincarnation exhausted his life, deep in his right eye, the seventh "reincarnation path" suddenly awakened. This word carries the power of all repentance and regret, dragging his consciousness back to the past.
After resurrecting his life, Nagato, armed with the power of the seventh path of retrospection, stared at Yahiko and Konan who were still practicing ninjutsu in the warehouse. This time, he not only wants to protect his best friend, but also wants to tear up the script of fate. The wreckage of Payne's Six Paths is a lesson from the past, and the glimmer of the path of reincarnation leads the way to a new path - he wants to use reincarnation as a pen to redraw true peace on the canvas of troubled times.
This is not simple revenge or redemption, but a soul with too much burden, using the power of the seventh path to reshape the "Ninja World Harmony" in the most paranoid way. (If you are looking for excitement in fighting, I suggest you read the third volume and it will get more exciting!)
