Madara decided to pay a visit to Hidden Rain Village. Konan is already waiting there for him. It's raining in the Hidden Rain village and Konan is reminded of the times when she was a homeless child roaming the fields with her inseparable friends Nagato and Yahiko. On one of these days Yahiko came into a hideout and spotted a giant toad. Seconds later they realized the giant toad was Jiraiya sensei dressed as a toad.
[GoogleAd]Madara materializes in front of Konan. He asks about Nagato's corpse. Madara knows what a powerful thing Rinnegan ocular power is. Nagato had such a gift. Now that he is dead, Madara wants the Rinnegan. Madara asks about why Nagato and Konan betrayed Akatsuki. They did after all approved of Tobi's Tsuki no Me Project. Madara knew of Nagato using Rinne Rebirth Jutsu to revive all dead from last carnage of Hidden Leaf. He considers this an act of betrayal to Akatsuki. Madara knew that Nagato did this because of Naruto.
Story rolls over to the scene where Naruto attempts to answer Nagato by telling him about "Story of Gutsy Ninja" book written by Jiraiya sensei. How Pervy Sage believed in Naruto and his quest to make a better world. Pain does not believe in true peace, but Naruto reiterated that he will never stain Jiraiya's memory by giving up. Nagato recalled those words when Jiraiya taught him too. Nagato knew that he was an inspiration to Jiraiya.
Naruto told Nagato that he was going to be a Hokage one day and he will bring peace to Hidden Rain village. Nagato questioned his resolve by asking him whether he would keep his word no matter what pain he faces. Naruto admitted he couldn't write like his master, that is why his book will have to be about his actions and his life. And no matter what the pain, he will continue walking.
Madara questions Konan's loyalty to Akatsuki, but Konan explains that it was Yahiko who formed Akatsuki and the red clouds on the Akatsuki cloaks symbolize the blood that was shed in the wars. Madara disagrees by saying that he was the one who encouraged Yahiko to form Akatsuki and he was the one who gave Nagato the Rinnegan.
Konan attacks hoping for Madara to materialize in time for her to kill him. Madara sucks her in, but not before realizing that she mixed in Paper Bombs. The explosion was survived by both Konan and Madara.
Konan remembers how Yahiko asked Konan to take a good care of Nagato as he is the real force of Akatsuki, the keystone that will save the nation and the world. Konan told herself that she will always be the pillar that supports two bridges: Yahiko and Nagato. They both pledged their lives to peace and both died for their beliefs, Konan pledged to be the pillar supporting Naruto and his belief in peace. She made a bouquet of paper flowers and handed them to Naruto. The title of next Naruto Shippuden episode 253 this Thursday March 8th is "The Bridge to Peace".
