Hearing Jiraiya's invitation, Nagato immediately looked at Konan, who was standing quietly not far away.
"Teacher, you've already spoken to Konan, haven't you?"
"Mm!" Jiraiya nodded and said, "Konan said that as long as you join the revolutionary forces, she will join too!"
"Teacher, I didn't expect that you, a Konoha Ninja, would also join the revolution."
In fact, it wasn't just Nagato; even Orochimaru was somewhat shocked.
Shocked that Jiraiya, who deeply believed in the will of fire and the so-called Great Toad Sage's prophecy, would actually join the revolutionary forces.
"Hehehe, people always change. Besides, I've seen the hope for true peace in the red ideology!"
"I will not join your revolutionary forces. As for the reason, I've already told Itachi!"
Seeing Nagato's demeanor, Naruto knew that inviting him like this was pointless! He could only bring out some solid facts!
"Nagato, how much do you really know about the Tailed Beasts?"
Naruto's words immediately drew the attention of the three people present.
Seeing this, Naruto continued to ask, "Do you know the origin of the nine Tailed Beasts? And why did the nine Tailed Beasts appear in the Ninja World?"
Naruto's questions immediately stumped Nagato.
He had never really considered these questions. Like other Ninja, Nagato only viewed the Tailed Beasts as powerful weapons, not as intelligent life forms!
Orochimaru was very interested in the questions Naruto posed. He knew that Naruto was aware of some little-known secrets.
"What do you mean by that?" Nagato asked, frowning.
"Hehehe, you don't even know the true nature of the Tailed Beasts? And you want to collect them to create a super weapon that can deter the entire Ninja World?"
"So you know?" The one asking the question wasn't Nagato, but Orochimaru.
Orochimaru was eager to hear Naruto explain the secrets of the Tailed Beasts! So he ignored Nagato and immediately played along!
Nagato didn't say anything about Orochimaru's line-stealing, but instead stared blankly at Naruto.
"Of course I know!"
Naruto then proceeded to explain the origin of the Tailed Beasts.
"Originally, there were no nine Tailed Beasts in the Ninja World. In fact, there was only one Tailed Beast: the Ten-Tails!"
"The Ten-Tails' power was immense. It could easily flatten mountains and change terrain. With a single move, it could destroy any one of the Five Great Nations."
"To prevent the Ten-Tails from destroying the world, someone intervened at that time: the Six Paths Sage. The Six Paths Sage forcibly sealed the Ten-Tails and became its Jinchuriki."
"But even the Sage had his limits. As his time drew near, to prevent the Ten-Tails from reappearing and destroying the world, he divided the Ten-Tails' Chakra into nine Tailed Beasts!"
"The nine Tailed Beasts that were split are the nine Tailed Beasts of the current Ninja World!"
"As for the Ten-Tails' body..."
At this point, Naruto looked at Nagato and continued, "...it became the summoning beast of those with the Rinnegan, the Gedo Statue!"
Listening to Naruto's narration, the people present were all shocked.
Seeing their expressions, Naruto thought to himself, "If you knew this was only part of the story, you'd probably be even more shocked!"
Naruto did not reveal the story of the Rabbit Goddess, Kaguya Otsutsuki. If he had, they would probably have been even more shocked.
"So... you're saying... my collecting Tailed Beasts to create a super weapon is actually resurrecting the Ten-Tails?"
Nagato finally understood.
"Exactly," Naruto nodded. "The terror of the Ten-Tails is beyond your comprehension! The reason the Six Paths Sage died was also because he couldn't control the Ten-Tails' power."
Here, Naruto was embellishing, because the Six Paths Sage wasn't dead yet!
At least he was living in the Ninja World's Pure Land in another form.
Nagato fell into deep thought upon hearing this.
"So, who gave you the idea of collecting Tailed Beasts? This isn't helping you create peace; this is basically making you the Great Demon King who will destroy the world!"
Naruto's words immediately brought to Nagato's mind the masked Madara, and the Gedo Statue's craving for the Chakra of the nine Tailed Beasts.
Seeing Nagato deep in thought, Naruto knew his spoiler had been very effective.
The reason for the spoiler was that Naruto intended to tell Nagato, "Your method of 'nuclear peace' is completely useless; on the contrary, it will bring destruction!"
Of course, there was also the possibility that Nagato wouldn't believe Naruto's story at all.
But looking at Nagato's current state, Naruto knew he had believed it!
He would probably go find Obito next and question him.
If Obito's answer was wrong, then Nagato would abandon his plan to collect the Tailed Beasts.
Seeing Nagato lost in thought, Jiraiya, who was a bit impatient, said, "Nagato, don't be so stubborn! Come join the revolution! Only revolution is the path to peace!"
Nagato didn't speak upon hearing this, but directly exited the virtual world.
Konan, not far away, also exited the virtual world upon seeing this.
After Nagato left, Orochimaru asked with a smile, "I think... that story isn't complete, is it?"
"You haven't explained how the Ten-Tails appeared!"
Naruto shrugged and said, "Telling too many stories makes me thirsty. I'm taking off!"
With that, Naruto also exited the virtual world, leaving only Orochimaru and Jiraiya, the two buddies, behind.
After exiting the virtual world, Naruto took out his computer and began connecting to the nanobots on Obito's body.
Soon, he saw Obito.
At this moment, Obito was sleeping in an unknown location, snoring away, occasionally sitting up and striking a hugging pose, shouting "Rin" out loud.
Seeing this scene, Naruto immediately recorded this footage of Obito sleeping.
Whenever Obito tried to act tough again, he would release this video and let Obito know what social death felt like...
Of course, Naruto observing Obito wasn't out of any mischievous intent; capturing the video of Obito sleeping was just a coincidence. What he really wanted to know was whether Nagato would immediately question Obito, and how Obito would continue to deceive Nagato!
After more than ten minutes, Nagato still hadn't contacted Obito. Seeing this, Naruto had no choice but to start recording, then went to sleep himself.
On the other side.
Nagato, who had exited the game, looked at Konan beside him and asked, "Konan, do you think what that kid said is true?"
That kid, of course, referred to Naruto.
"Whether it's true or not, wouldn't we know by asking Madara?"
Nagato nodded and said, "He's not in Rain Ninja Village right now. I'll ask him when he returns to Rain Ninja Village."
