Upon hearing Naruto's words, Akira felt a slight stir within him.
Even with Sage Mode active, he couldn't sense the source of the chakra, yet Naruto was able to feel it clearly?
So, does that an Naruto's sensory perception is inherently stronger than his own?
With a resigned shake of his head, Akira thought, "What can you do? Naruto is the protagonist after all. He's got that main character glow-what can be done about that?" He shouted, "Wait for !" to Naruto. Regardless of the situation, since Naruto really had that sensory ability, Akira now had a plan.
Originally, with his Sage Mode active, Akira couldn't sense anything and thought perhaps the Ryuchi Cave's Sage Mode wasn't as perceptive as Mount Myoboku's.
But now, he realized-it mostly ca down to the individual!
After calling out to Naruto, Akira turned towards the Six Paths of Pain, lifting his hand and quietly murmuring, "Sword, co!"
Forming a seal with one hand, he clapped in the air, summoning dark summoning symbols.
And then, the Kusanagi Sword appeared in Akira's hand!
Summoning jutsu doesn't only summon living beings; in fact, even inanimate objects can be summoned, such as the Rashomon gates!
Grasping the Kusanagi Sword, Akira slashed towards Deva Path Pain.
At the sa ti, the other Paths of Pain surrounded him.
Fully aware of Akira's strength, they definitely couldn't let him face Deva Path alone.
However, wielding the Kusanagi Sword, Akira-who was already beyond Kage-level- displayed overwhelming power!
Even when faced with the combined attack of the Six Paths, Akira only felt a slight bit of pressure.
It was like a Kage-level shinobi being surrounded by several Jonin.
Though it applied so pressure, the thought of being defeated by a few Jonin working together? That was simply impossible!
In this manner, after exchanging several rounds of attacks, Deva Path Pain raised his hand, a black rod appearing, thrusting it towards Akira.
But Akira swung his Kusanagi Sword.
With chakra infused into it, the sharpness of the Kusanagi Sword instantly sliced through the black rod!
"Naruto!" After cutting the rod, Akira grabbed the severed half and threw it towards Naruto. Naruto moved swiftly, quickly raising his hand to catch the flying black rod.
The function of the black rod was clear-it acted like a distant receiver for Nagato's chakra, similar to a satellite dish!
Naruto's sensory perception had already sowhat detected the source of Nagato's chakra.
Now, holding the black rod, Naruto felt as if he had his own antenna, sensing Nagato's chakra even more clearly!
"Found it!" With the black rod in hand, Naruto focused for a mont and then imdiately locked onto Nagato's location, dashing in that direction!
"Speaking of which, this situation differs quite a lot from the original story. I wonder if Naruto's Talk no Jutsu ability can still co into play?"
Watching Naruto rush off, Akira silently pondered to himself.
Regardless of whether it was effective or not, letting Naruto's Bansho Ten'in try it out wasn't a bad idea, right?
Without worrying too much about Naruto's side of things, Akira refocused on the Six Paths of Pain.
The Kusanagi Sword glead with energy, weaving through the Six Paths of Pain as Akira effortlessly maneuvered among them.
On the other side, holding the black rod, Naruto could clearly pinpoint the source of Nagato's chakra and moved swiftly towards it.
anwhile, the Six Paths of Pain combined their efforts to try and defeat Akira.
But did they have any hope? Akira didn't even need to transform into his dragon form, nor did he need to activate Eight Gates or Sage Mode to amplify his power.
Akira, relying solely on his own sixteen or seventeen hundred thousand units of chakra, was more than capable of holding his own against the Six Paths.
Glancing around at the battle, everyone else had Kage-level power, and while their strengths varied, winning or losing decisively in a short ti was unlikely.
So, it was more of an intense stalemate than anything else!
Of course, the ongoing battle between Itachi and Sasuke was an exception.
Facing Sasuke, Itachi was obviously holding back, so the brothers appeared evenly matched.
"Not bad. At least Sasuke's using his Mangekyou now, so Itachi only needs to hold back slightly."
"In the original, Itachi's Mangekyou was defeated by Sasuke's three-tomoe Sharingan, which really drew a lot of criticism!"
"But what's up with Obito today? It's like he's taken sothing, going berserk on poor Kakashi."
"Did Kakashi do sothing to tick him off?"
After glancing at the battle between Sasuke and Itachi, Akira's gaze shifted to the duel between Kakashi and Obito, muttering to himself.
"You're fighting us, yet you have the leisure to watch others? You're not taking us seriously at
all!"
As Akira gracefully evaded the attacks of the Six Paths, while still paying attention to other fights, the Animal Path spoke, obviously irritated!
The mont the words were spoken, Animal Path ford seals with both hands and
unleashed a summoning jutsu.
Several massive hellhounds lunged towards Akira.
Akira casually slashed with his sword, cutting the first dog in half.
But despite being split in two, the hellhound didn't die. Instead, it multiplied, forming two
new dogs that lunged towards Akira!
Akira swung the Kusanagi Sword again.
The two attacking hellhounds were cut down once more!
Yet, as they hit the ground, the severed hellhounds turned into four!
"Sigh, such a troubleso ability. The more you kill, the more there are!" Akira had already been aware of the hellhounds' ability from the original series, but seeing the sheer number of hellhounds grow after each defeat still caused him to sigh in frustration.
Then, with a flash of his left Mangekyou Sharingan, Akira locked his gaze onto the four
advancing hellhounds.
In an instant, pitch-black flas ignited, engulfing the hellhounds and causing them to let out pained, howling screams.
"Amaterasu flas?!" Animal Path let out a resigned sigh upon seeing the black flas
consu the hellhounds.
Amaterasu was Itachi's ocular jutsu!
So, had Akira sohow copied Itachi's ocular power?
All that could be said was that Mangekyou abilities were always strange, and Akira's ocular power was the strangest of all.
His ocular jutsu could beco any other ocular jutsu-even secret arts or Kekkei Genkai!
It was truly hard to believe. How could such a cheat-level ocular jutsu even exist?
Though the hellhounds' ability allowed them to counter physical attacks-splitting and multiplying after being struck-Amaterasu's power effectively countered this.
The black flas of Amaterasu would continue to burn until their target was reduced to ash.
Thus, no matter how much they multiplied, there was no escape.
With overwhelming power, even without special transformations, Akira's chakra alone-his sixteen or seventeen hundred thousand units-was enough to dominate the Six Paths.
anwhile, other Kage-level fights continued elsewhere, each equally intense.
Overall, Akira's side seed to have the upper hand...
While the battle raged on, Naruto, holding the black rod, ran swiftly and soon arrived at the
cave where Nagato was hiding.
Naruto entered the cave.
"So, you're the real Pain?" Naruto asked, looking at Nagato, who was covered in black rods
and appeared severely weakened.
In Naruto's mind, the true leader of the Akatsuki-Pain's real body-should be a formidable,
evil final boss.
But here was Nagato, appearing on the brink of collapse.
This was very different from the villainous boss Naruto had imagined!
"That's right. So today... is this the end for Akatsuki?" Nagato sighed as he looked at Naruto,
who had indeed found his hiding place.
The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was here, which ant Nagato's defeat was inevitable. After all, there was no way he could simultaneously control the Six Paths while fighting Akira
and face Naruto here with his real body.
Since he couldn't do it, today marked his defeat.
As the face of Akatsuki, his loss ant the organization's defeat.
"Why?!"
At that mont, Naruto had no intention of making a move but instead stared seriously at
Nagato, asking, "Why did you have to attack the Akatsuki?!"
"For peace... true peace," Nagato said, looking at Naruto.
"Peace? But your actions... they make think of the exact opposite!" Naruto responded,
clearly not buying Nagato's reasoning.
