Capítulo 114: Chapter 114: It's Time to Make New York, and This Country, Feel Fear
However, this time, Kingpin's subtle actions didn't catch the attention of either Kakashi or Pain.
At this moment, Kakashi was fixedly gazing at Pain, who remained focused on the view outside the window.
Seeing this, Kingpin felt the need to make a statement. After all, didn't the leader just agree with what he said, indicating he should continue?
So, he followed the cues from Kakashi and Pain and continued, "As is well known, the U.S...." (This part discusses racial discrimination issues in the U.S., but it's censored, so I'll omit it here.)
"It's supposed to be a civilized society, yet it's filled with the kinds of problems typically associated with primitive tribes."
"Sometimes I can't help but wonder, what's wrong with this country? What's wrong with this world? Why is it like this?"
At this moment, Kingpin appeared like a warrior, as if he were enveloped in a radiant white light.
But what he truly thought was known only to himself.
However, this provided the perfect segue for Pain to intervene.
"Kingpin, I've already found the answer to your question."
"Huh?" Kingpin was taken aback. He had only been speaking casually, yet it seemed like the leader of the Akatsuki organization, Pain, took it seriously?
"It's because they can't understand each other!" Pain's voice slightly intensified.
Upon hearing this, Kingpin breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought that his words might have led the leader to contemplate destroying the world!
Then, Pain continued, "History has made it clear to us that humans, no matter what, will never understand each other. They're foolish creatures."
"Do you know what history means? It grows under the truth, understanding the past, foreseeing the future, that's what history is."
"Events always occur abruptly, and reasons are added later."
"So, how can humans grow and ultimately understand each other?"
"There's only one answer, and that's pain."
Upon hearing Pain's words, Kingpin suddenly felt uneasy. But he couldn't speak up because Pain continued to speak calmly about increasingly serious matters.
"Ignorant and foolish children can only grow up after experiencing pain."
"Racial discrimination arises from the inability to understand each other, and wars between nations stem from the same cause."
"Those who don't know pain won't understand what peace is."
"I have transcended into a god through endless suffering, from a mere mortal to a deity!"
Upon hearing this, Kingpin stood still, his mind racing: Is the leader of the Akatsuki organization suffering from delusions? How else could he say such things? And claiming to be a 'god'?
It was natural for Kingpin to question, after all, he had only speculated about the strength of the Akatsuki leader, never having witnessed it firsthand.
At this moment, if he weren't afraid of being killed, Kingpin would have started to question whether Pain suffered from delusions.
"I aim to put an end to the war in this turbulent world, that is the mission of a god." Pain continued to expound his ideology as if he hadn't noticed Kingpin's expression.
"In the midst of war between nations, how can we quickly stop that war? Simply by having a group of people with justice and peace in their hearts, possessing a weapon capable of annihilating a great nation in an instant. Tens of thousands, millions of people dying in an instant would instill fear in anyone!"
"People, nations, the whole world, would then know pain."
"That fear would generate restraint, and hence, there would be no more war. It can be said that such a world is moving towards stability and peace."
"Pain makes the world grow, just like I did before. To make this world grow, to advance our thinking, we need the guidance of a god. This world is still just a child, and to make it grow, it needs to understand what pain is."
"So, we need the Tailed Beasts, we need to merge the nine Tailed Beasts into the Ten-Tails, capable of bringing about the end of the world, to wield this power and bring true peace to the world!"
"That's why I founded the Akatsuki organization."
Madman! This guy is completely insane!
After hearing everything Pain said, only one word echoed in Kingpin's mind.
If he were just an ordinary madman, he would at most be locked up in a mental hospital. But if that madman possessed power almost unmatched, the world would change because of that madman.
Kingpin had a premonition that such a change was about to happen before him.
"Those who discriminate against races grow to understand the discriminated, and those who wage war feel the pain and understand the true meaning of peace."
"I originally planned to leave New York after capturing the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki," Pain continued. "But now, I feel it's necessary to let New York, let this arrogant country, experience true pain!"
"I believe that at that time, this country might finally rein in its arrogance and truly yearn for peace!"
