Jokichi still wanted a good night's rest, so naturally he would not do such a foolish thing.
Next was The Inspector.
How should he describe this thing!
It was very powerful, capable of turning an ordinary person into a god-like existence.
But it was also limited to this planet.
If it were not for the fact that using it bound you to the planet, becoming a two-in-one entity, then this would undoubtedly be an artifact.
However.
With the system, Jokichi's upper limit was far beyond a single planet.
There was absolutely no need for him to give up a watermelon for a sesame seed.
"For the system to forge this thing, it seems the Sage of Six Paths really did become an existence like the planet's will!"
Jokichi pinched his chin, unable to help but think deeply.
Despite being a departed soul, he could ignore the rules of life and death.
He could appear freely in the realm of the living, and even use the Pure Land's rules for guiding the dead.
Even if he was not the planet's will, he was at least some sort of administrator.
"Good thing I didn't fight him, otherwise, in my condition, I might have followed in Kaguya's footsteps."
Jokichi once again rejoiced that he had not acted impulsively earlier.
As existences of the same level, if one side could mobilize the planet's natural laws, the advantage would be immense.
At the very least, Jokichi's current items would not be able to match it.
Moreover, he had just reached this level and had trouble even controlling his power.
Putting this thing into the system space.
Jokichi looked at the last item.
Yin-Yang Jade.
If nothing unexpected happened, this item originated from the ultimate sealing jutsu, Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei.
There was no need to test its power; it was basically equivalent to that sealing jutsu.
As for how to use it.
Just stick the jade pendant onto the opponent.
Throwing the item into the system space for safekeeping.
Jokichi went to the window and looked outside.
The waning moon still hung in the center.
"Midnight, huh! Let's go back to sleep!"
Jokichi yawned and went back to bed, falling fast asleep.
This time, he did not dream and slept very soundly.
When he woke up, it was already broad daylight.
Jokichi put the False Mask back on, changing into Yato's appearance.
He then had a meal at the inn before leaving this border town.
He was looking for a hidden place, preparing to train properly for a period of time.
To thoroughly master the power within his body.
As for why he needed to find a hidden place to train.
Is that even a question?
The power within his body was simply too strong.
Just releasing chakra externally would cause massive destruction to the surroundings.
Training in a populated area would not only cause many accidental injuries but also attract a lot of attention.
Although it could not harm Jokichi, it was very troublesome.
He hated trouble and did not want to do unnecessary things.
Therefore, finding a sparsely populated place was fine.
And because of the long-term wars in this world, resulting in a sparse population.
Sparsely populated places were the least lacking thing.
He quickly found a forest near the foot of a mountain in the Land of Sound.
There was a large lake and clearing, high cliffs, and no signs of human habitation for hundreds of miles.
It was very suitable for training.
In the nearby clearing, Jokichi set up his portable house.
After a day, the portable house had returned to its original state.
Thus, Jokichi began his training.
It was primarily to control the chakra within his body.
And incidentally familiarize himself with his newly acquired abilities and ponder their applications.
These things should have been very simple for Jokichi, who had reached the realm of Creation of All Things.
However, his power was simply too immense.
Even reaching the realm of Creation of All Things, it would still take a very long time to master it thoroughly.
Probably two or three months.
Jokichi did not have any objections to this.
He just silently began his new training.
The training process was not particularly strenuous.
Basically around two or three hours a day, and the intensity was not high.
His free time every day was spent either enjoying the luxurious life brought by the portable house and Tool Person.
Or contemplating life.
Invincible power freed him from external pressure.
He could now consider living according to his true desires.
But his true desires.
Or rather, what kind of life did he want?
In order to survive well in this world, and training so hard for so long.
He had long forgotten what the original him truly wanted to pursue.
Enjoying life with invincible power?
Or using this invincible power to do something meaningful?
For a moment, Jokichi was somewhat lost.
However, he did not care too much either.
Before finding his next life goal, he would just continue to grow stronger and enjoy the joy of growth.
Time slowly slipped by, and soon half a month had passed.
In this half month, Jokichi maintained a leisurely life of training, enjoying luxury, and contemplating life.
He originally thought such days would last for a while longer.
He did not expect the arrival of two uninvited guests to shatter this peace.
A man and a woman, both wearing black cloaks with red clouds.
The man had red hair and concentric ripple eyes.
The woman had light blue-purple hair, light orange-yellow eyes, with no strange shapes.
Both had calm and composed expressions, looking to be around 30.
It was none other than Nagato and Konan of the Akatsuki organization.
What surprised Jokichi was that Nagato came in person.
Rather than controlling Yahiko's corpse to create the Deva Path.
Furthermore, his body was not emaciated to the bone like in the anime.
It was ruddy-complexioned, possessing more vitality than an average middle-aged man.
"So, what brings you two to me?"
Jokichi sat on the steps in front of the portable house.
His left elbow resting on his knee, his fist propping up his cheek, a casual smile on his face.
However, the long sword stuck nearby, gleaming coldly, told the two that this seemingly casual guy was not as easy to deal with as imagined.
In fact, it was true.
Towards these two.
If it were in the past, he would have definitely attacked and killed them without hesitation.
Because the two sides were hostile.
Even if he had a lot of fondness for them in his past life, he would not show mercy when actually facing them.
Not to mention Nagato had assassinated him and captured the Three-Tails who had helped him.
But now it was different.
He had reached the top tier of Six Paths level power.
Even though he could not wield it with perfect ease yet, killing the two in front of him would be effortless.
Therefore, he wanted to see what these two wanted from him.
"I want to create a world."
Nagato said calmly.
"Therefore, I need your power. Yato, join my organization."
Hearing this invitation that sounded like both a command and a request.
Jokichi was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
He had not expected the identity he created to avoid trouble to be noticed and invited by the Akatsuki organization.
This dramatic development left Jokichi somewhat dumbfounded.
"What is your organization? And what is its goal? If I join you, what do I get? And what do I lose?"
Jokichi did not refuse immediately.
Not knowing what to do in the future, he wanted to see how this dramatic plot would unfold in the end.
