I see...

Ain't it fine, to go through with the surgery?

Wha!?

Don't say that! I might die from it!

Nagato, what do you think about whenever you head off for the battlefield?

That's it, isn't it?

Anybody who heads out to battle will understand that they might not make it back alive

And there are some who, indeed, never return home

To be unable to ensure your safe return, that's what a battlefield is, no?

Your surgery is similar in that respect, I think.

Well, of course I'm prepared for the possibility of death....
