Chapter 294 The Beginning of the Great Unification

The laboratory has too many projects and too much work. Even though Konoha is now the strongest ninja village in the ninja world.

But the top leaders of Konoha all knew who Konoha's enemies were. So no one dared to relax. The entire Konoha was in a state of high involution.

And in this calm but tense atmosphere, news came from Konoha Hospital that Nagato had woken up.

After Nagato's Samsara Eye was taken away and he knew he was not the so-called child of destiny, he was seriously injured and depressed, and fell into a coma.

For nearly a year, Konan has been traveling back and forth between the Rain Country and the Fire Country, maintaining stability in the Rain Country while hoping that Nagato will wake up.

The relationship between Konan and Nagato is actually a bit complicated. Because Konan and Yahiko were a couple back then. And Yahiko is the person Nagato respects the most.

After Yahiko's death, the relationship between the two of them became somewhat awkward. It is absolutely impossible to say that they have no feelings for each other. However, both of them have many concerns in their hearts. In addition, Nagato believes that he is the son of destiny and is ready to change the ninja world. Therefore, they have always been getting along with each other as companions.

But when Nagato lost his identity as the child of destiny, Xiaonan felt that something he had suppressed could no longer be restrained.

For countless days and nights, she stood by Nagato's window, hoping that she would wake up.

Konoha also used various means. Nagato's body was actually fine. The main reason why he couldn't wake up was that he didn't want to wake up.

He couldn't face his fate of being just a pawn, couldn't face his feelings for Xiaonan, and couldn't face the expectations of the people of the Rain Country.

However, Konoha's technology was stronger. With the development of the laboratory, Xiao Nan was soon able to use some special ninja tools to enter Nagato's consciousness and face Nagato directly.

After countless persuasions, or some other circumstances, Nagato finally seemed to have accepted reality and chose to wake up.

After Qingye received the news, he rushed over immediately.

In fact, Nagato, who has lost the Rinnegan, is now nothing to Konoha in terms of combat power.

To Aoba, Nagato's most important value is that he is a member of the Uzumaki clan.

In Aoba's opinion, the value of the Uzumaki clan is even higher than that of the Senju clan. The physique, chakra volume, and even bloodline limit of this clan are the best in the entire ninja world.

Originally, Qingye was worried that this boy might be upset. But after seeing the way he and Xiaonan were acting, Qingye knew that he didn't need to worry about anything.

After lying down for nearly a day, Nagato's body not only did not deteriorate at all, but under the treatment of Konoha's various technical means, he fully recovered and even better than before.

After some testing, Aoba discovered that Nagato's chakra amount, without the Chakra Coat, was close to his own with the Chakra Coat.

With such talent, it’s no wonder that Uchiha Madara chose him back then.

Nagato was a little embarrassed after waking up, because in theory he was still a wanted man in Konoha.

But Aoba naturally doesn't care about these things now. Nagato lost his Samsara Eye, and his combat power was greatly reduced. But his foundation is strong enough, and if he is trained well, he will at least be at the level of the Third Hokage. This combat power is still quite impressive.

Meanwhile, in the Land of Rain, Xiao Nan had followed Konoha's example and dealt with the Daimyo in the country. The Rain Village had taken over the entire country.

The next step is to merge directly into Konoha.

This was also a signal. Konoha's unification operation would officially begin from now on.

Aoba didn't want to wait any longer. He didn't know what Uchiha Obito and Senju Hashirama were planning. He didn't know what the Six Paths Sage wanted to do.

But he could feel that the other party didn't like what he was doing.

Since the enemy doesn't like it, of course we have to do it as soon as possible.
