Chapter 289: Chapter 289: Talk no Jutsu Activates
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 mean 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 me!" 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 came down to the individual!
After calling out to Naruto, Akira turned towards the Six Paths of Pain, lifting his hand and quietly murmuring, "Sword, come!"
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 same time, 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 some 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 somewhat 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 moment and then immediately 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 come 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 gleamed 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.
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 become 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 flames 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.
Meanwhile, other Kage-level fights continued elsewhere, each equally intense.
Overall, Akira's side seemed 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 meant 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 meant the organization's defeat.
"Why?!"
At that moment, 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 me think of the exact opposite!" Naruto responded,
clearly not buying Nagato's reasoning.
