Having decided on the treatment plan, the group split into two.
Chen Yi took Konan and Nagato to Loulan in the Land of Wind.
Obito Uchiha went to find Orochimaru.
Without Zetsu, Obito Uchiha lacked information about the Ninja World.
But that was all right. After all, Chen Yi was there—Orochimaru's trusted trading partner.
Obito Uchiha watched the group vanish into the distance, then entered the alternate space once again.
High in the sky, Fire Dragon carried Chen Yi.
Konan used Paper Ninjutsu to form a giant bird, carrying herself and Nagato.
They reached Loulan without much effort.
The place was desolate, with no signs of human footsteps for a long time.
Only the remaining ruins still proved to passersby that a civilization had once existed here.
Chen Yi sensed the energy fluctuations along the way and finally arrived beneath a dilapidated high-rise.
There was an exceptionally vast underground space here.
A kunai was embedded in the ground at its center.
Upon closer inspection, several words could be seen engraved at its end: Sword of Ninja Love.
This was the seal left behind by Konoha Village's Fourth Hokage—Minato Namikaze.
Because of the seal, the violent Dragon Vein energy had not been discovered by the people of Sand Village.
"This is the place."
Chen Yi took out several materials and inscribed a Magic Array on the ground.
"Mr. Nagato, stand in this position."
Nagato walked into the small square Chen Yi had drawn.
After the treatment with Blood Sorcery, Nagato was already able to walk on his own.
However, he was still far from his peak condition.
Once everything was ready, Chen Yi formed a few hand seals.
A gap was opened in the seal here, with Nagato standing directly in the middle of it.
