Major Ninja villages like Konoha, besides Ninjutsu and platforms, also had spiritual cores like the "Will of Fire" to unite the Ninjas under them. Regardless of whether this "Will of Fire" was reliable or whether the village leadership could fulfill it, it at least counted as having a spiritual program.
However, these small Ninja villages were themselves products of violence and profit intertwined, and they hadn't even nurtured their own unique spiritual core, so naturally, under the impact of the chakra network space, they showed signs of falling apart.
"This is the best news I've heard recently," Nagato said with a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.
"It's a pity, if the Akatsuki Organization still existed... maybe we could really achieve our wish..."
Konan suddenly lowered her head and said somewhat gloomily.
As a newly established organization that took maintaining peace as its duty, it could be said that the organization was entirely composed of idealists, with almost no interest entanglements.
Under these circumstances, the chakra network space would only be beneficial to them; it wouldn't cause the entire organization to lose cohesion due to the appearance of the Ninjutsu platform. Perhaps the Akatsuki Organization could really usher in a true golden period of development.
Hearing Konan's words, Nagato's expression immediately became gloomy as well. A moment later, he said through gritted teeth: "The Akatsuki Organization still has Yahiko's revenge, and I will avenge it no matter what!"
Although he said that, Nagato actually didn't have much confidence. This time, he didn't summon the Gedo Statue, and he suffered injuries far more severe than in the original work. Even his two legs had been amputated due to the serious injuries from continuous pursuit, so even with the Rinnegan, it couldn't give him much confidence.
"Don't worry, Nagato... what you need to do now is to rest well. Perhaps you can also go to the chakra network space to learn more. I believe that with your ability, you will definitely fully develop the power of the Rinnegan soon!"
Konan also encouraged Nagato. The possessor of the Rinnegan could resist the Infinite Tsukuyomi, but if one wanted to indulge in it, one could naturally enter.
Especially if one drew a Sealing Formula on their body, then anyone, regardless of their level, could enter. At most, in the eyes of some powerful people, the network space might seem a bit distorted.
After Konan discovered the benefits of the chakra network space, Nagato, eager for revenge, didn't care about much else and also carved a seal on his body to connect to the chakra network.
After making contact with the chakra network, Nagato's strength advanced by leaps and bounds. Many people thought Nagato's power all came from the Rinnegan, but in reality, being able to develop the Rinnegan to this extent already demonstrated his talent.
Otherwise, try it with an ordinary member of the Uzumaki Clan? Guaranteed that if they try it, they'll die, directly drained into a husk by the Rinnegan.
Nagato's excellence came from himself, not the Rinnegan. Even without the Rinnegan, as long as he had a good education, he could also become a top-tier Ninja.
Because of this, after Nagato came into contact with the chakra network, his strength had been advancing by leaps and bounds during this period. It was just that in reality, his body was still in a heavily injured state, and he had no way to display his strength, which was why he was somewhat restless now.
Just when Nagato and Konan were still chatting, Nagato's expression suddenly changed, and he looked towards the cave entrance. Konan, who was a step behind, also reacted instantly and looked towards the cave entrance as well.
The entrance to this cave was covered by the origami secret technique laid down by Konan herself, which ordinary Ninjas couldn't discover. Moreover, along the path to the entrance, Konan had also set up many explosive tag traps. Konan was even confident that even if Hanzou came, he couldn't break in silently.
However, this time, Konan was slapped in the face. A Ninja who looked like a phantom easily passed through the camouflage and traps set by Konan and appeared in front of them.
"Who are you?!"
Konan looked like a bristling hedgehog, holding a Kunai in her hand, blocking in front of Nagato. Although her expression was fierce, it couldn't hide her unease.
"Don't worry, I'm not your enemy!"
The Ninja who broke in said carelessly. As he spoke, his whole body turned into a phantom, passed directly through Konan, and arrived in front of Nagato, pressing one hand directly onto his chest.
"Not to mention, if I were really your enemy, you wouldn't be able to resist either!"
Nagato's face was dark. Although he wanted to resist, before that Ninja could put his hand on his chest, many vines had already grown on the wooden bed he was lying on, directly binding his hands and even absorbing the Chakra in his body, making him completely unable to use Rinnegan Ninjutsu.
"Nagato!"
Konan turned her head in surprise, looking at the Ninja who had his hand on Nagato's chest. She gritted her teeth and put down the Kunai in her hand:
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"Not bad, this is how it should be," the Ninja smiled and said, "I have important things to do with Nagato, and I will definitely ensure his safety. You can rest assured."
As he said this, green light flickered on the hand the Ninja pressed on Nagato's chest. A moment later, the wounds on Nagato's body began to recover, and his breathing stabilized.
