The image you've linked resembles a network with connections and nodes, which is quite symbolic of the Bitcoin network's structure.
Here's the plain language for the white paper section:
1) Think of Bitcoin like a giant, worldwide ledger where everyone sends updates at once. These updates are transactions from one person to another.
2) Each computer (node) grabs all these transaction updates and puts them into one page of this ledger, called a block.
3) Now comes the hard part: each node tries to seal their page by solving a tough math problem—proof-of-work. It's like closing and locking that page so no one can change it.
4) The first node that solves this puzzle shouts out its success to everyone else. It’s like saying, "I've got it!"
5) But other nodes don’t just take their word for it; they check if every transaction on that page follows Bitcoin rules and has not been spent before accepting it.
6) Once accepted, all other nodes use this newly added block as reference for creating the next page in our growing ledger book.
It’s basically an endless digital puzzle race where each completed puzzle ensures everyone agrees on who owns what in Bitcoin world.
