"How's the battle going?"
Pain sat high on the Hokage Rock, looking straight ahead. Five people in the same clothes stood in a line beside him. The strong wind blew, and their black outer robes fluttered in the wind, as if the war - torn Konoha had nothing to do with them.
"Just got the news. Orochimaru's subordinates have also joined the fight. All our small - fry members have been defeated. Some are dead, some are injured, and some have been taken captive."
Zetsu poked half of his body out from the shadows and reported what he had observed to their leader, Pain.
"What should we do now? Should we continue the attack? The guys in Konoha are not weak in the first place. With Orochimaru's interference, we're still at a disadvantage."
White Zetsu looked at the leader, waiting for his next instructions. Pain gently closed his eyes, slowly stood up, and suddenly opened his eyes. A huge amount of chakra escaped like flowing water.
"Useless guys! Only by making Konoha feel pain and the world feel pain can we rebuild our own paradise!"
Deva Path Pain stood in the air, his handsome face cold. He spread his hands out.
Ultra - Shinra Tensei
Just as he was about to use this devastating move to remove the scenery of Konoha from the map, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, and black flames began to burn fiercely on his body.
Looking down, he saw that not only himself but also the other Pains, except for Zetsu who was no longer there, were still burning fiercely.
Deva Path Pain tried to pat out the annoying flames with his hand, but unexpectedly, the flames spread along his arm. In a blink of an eye, he was completely surrounded by the raging fire.
"So, this is the legendary inextinguishable flame, Amaterasu? Since the flame can't be extinguished, let it leave my body! Shinra Tensei"
There was a huge repulsive force around Deva Path Pain, which forced the black flames back. And the Preta Path Pain below absorbed all the Amaterasu flames. Fortunately, the loss was not too great.
"You two, since you're both here, why are you still hiding?"
Pain turned his head and spoke in the direction of a huge rock behind him. Just as he finished speaking, there was the sound of clapping, and two handsome figures walked out from behind the rock.
"Are you Pain, the leader of Akatsuki?"
Naruto Uzumaki looked at the strangely - dressed man in front of him. The Perverted Hermit (a perverted but powerful hermit in the story) had chased after Pain since he heard that Pain had the Rinnegan, and there had been no news from him, which made Naruto very worried.
"Where is the Perverted Hermit?"
Naruto's expression was as fierce as he rarely showed. He sized Pain up and down. According to Granny Tsunade, one of the Perverted Hermit's former apprentices had the Rinnegan.
But could this cold - eyed guy in front of him really be the Perverted Hermit's apprentice?
"So what if you've seen him? So what if you haven't? Naruto Uzumaki, you should know that we're here to catch you. You actually dared to swagger right in front of us. It seems you're quite confident in your own strength."
"Whether I'm confident or not can only be known after a fight! Where is the Perverted Hermit?"
Naruto was almost out of patience. This was the second time he had asked the question.
"Bring him here!"
Hearing the voice, two Pain figures dragged a dying man over from the side. Naruto stared intently and shouted loudly in a panic.
"Perverted Hermit!"
Sasuke followed the gaze and saw that Jiraiya's injuries were extremely serious. Blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, one of his arms was broken, and several black rods were stuck in his body. What was even more serious were several fatal wounds all over his body. His breathing was very weak.
"Nar...Naruto...cough cough..."
A large mouthful of blood gushed out. Jiraiya looked haggard, and only his chapped lips were still slightly moving, calling out Naruto's name.
"Damn it, I'll kill you!"
A terrifying aura suddenly burst forth centered around Naruto, as if the heavens were falling and the earth was splitting. The stones and branches blown up around made the Deva Path of Pain cover his eyes with his hand and carefully observe Naruto.
Sasuke was startled by this gushing Chakra. That bastard Naruto, though he had said he had become a Perfect Jinchūriki, Sasuke didn't expect Naruto to be so powerful when he truly showed his strength!
The yellow Chakra cloak instantly enveloped Naruto's body. He and Sasuke exchanged a look, and Sasuke quickly understood.
Purple lightning crackled all over his body. With a blink of an eye, Sasuke teleported beside Jiraiya. The sharp Chidori in his hand emitted a beautiful arc of blue light, forcing the approaching Pain to defend.
Taking this opportunity, Sasuke helped the gravely - injured Jiraiya up and then vanished from the spot with a turn.
"Oh~ The ninjas of Konoha are really kind - hearted. At such a crucial moment, they still want to save an old man at death's door."
"Shut up! Whether you were the Perverted Hermit's former disciple or not, I'll knock you down today!"
Pain's calm face had made Naruto extremely angry. Six large hands from his six tails emerged behind him. He crouched on all fours, with a Rasengan condensed in each hand.
The two energies, dark red and light blue, intertwined with each other. Just one look at them made one's hair stand on end.
Pain sensed something was wrong and retreated. Unfortunately, it was too late. The six tails attacked different Pain figures respectively. The Pain figures targeted by Naruto had no way to escape the range of his moves.
Veins popped out on the forehead of the Deva Path of Pain due to the excessive force. He barely managed to counter Naruto's Tailed Beast Ball with Shinra Tensei, and for a moment, they were evenly matched.
But the other Pain figures weren't so lucky. Except for the Preta Path, which could temporarily absorb all of his Chakra, the others were all blasted hundreds of meters away by Naruto's attacks. Their fates were unknown.
The Deva Path of Pain was also gradually losing ground. It was obviously not a good idea to confront the tailed beast in terms of the amount of Chakra. While he was distracted in the fight against Naruto, he recalled the powers of the other five paths and used the ability of the Preta Path to absorb Naruto's Tailed Beast Ball.
He thought the battle would return to an equal footing. His body relaxed a bit. Suddenly, he was attacked from both flanks. Two Tailed Beast Balls came from the left and right, pinning him firmly in the middle. He was in extreme pain with his eyes bulging.
"Damn it!"
The body of Pain in the [Deva Path] was in an extremely distorted posture. Under the powerful attacks of the two - tailed beast, his body began to distort. It wouldn't be long before his body was crushed into two pieces.
Nagato, hiding in the distance, would never allow Naruto to do such a thing. The body of Pain in the [Deva Path] was Yahiko's body, which must not be destroyed at any cost.
Nagato operated from behind, exerting all his strength. Pain made [Hand Seal] and placed [Summoning Jutsu]'s summoning array on Naruto's stomach.
After a puff of white smoke, Naruto blurted out, "Damn it! It hurts like hell!"
