Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-353

Chikushodo Pain crouched down, staring at Jiraiya with indifferent cold eyes, and slowly said, “Jiraiya-sensei, you shouldn’t be here.”

Kakashi and Guy both stunned, immediately turned towards Jiraiya with an incredulous expression.

Obviously, the term ‘Sensei’ used by Pain to refer to Jiraiya was the last thing they expected. Never did either of them could have thought that the mysterious leader of the Akatsuki Organization would actually turn out to be Jiraiya-sama’s disciple.

Jiraiya was still a bit confused and questioned with an uncertain tone, “You really are… Nagato?”

After three years of teaching the three kids, Jiraiya obviously remembers their appearance… but with the way, the other party referred to him, and those eyes only reminded him of Nagato.

And obviously, the other party referred to him by the suffix ‘-Sensei’, therefore, he had to be one of those three children.

“So, I guess you are the one who became Pain, Nagato? Strayed from the path of goodness, what happened to you?” – can’t help but ask in confusion. What could be the reason that prompted such a change within Nagato?

However, Chikushodo Pain only said, “You don’t need to know… after all, you are an outsider!”

Jiraiya’s face sank, “You really have changed… Nagato!”

He looked up at the Kunoichi hovering high above in the sky, observing the entire battlefield with an indifferent expression, did not even look at him or passed a greeting… Jiraiya’s heart suddenly felt sad. ‘Did everything I taught the three of them for three years mean nothing to them? If the one with the ponytail is Nagato, then who are the other two? And why do they also have the Rinnegan?’

Kakashi on the side could feel that Jiraiya’s situation was not alright, and he asked in a worry, “Jiraiya-sama, are you alright? And about what Pain spoke…?”

Jiraiya sighed, and explained, “It was during the last years of the second great shinobi war. After the Sannin’s battle with Hanzo of the Salamander, we were approached by three orphan children for food, and seeing that we were shinobi, one of the three kids asked us to teach them Ninjutsu, they wanted to protect themselves… and I did… I stayed in the Land of Rain for three years and taught the three of them… apparently, I never expected that they would stray from the path of goodness.”

Guy asked, “So um, did all three of them have the Rinnegan?”

Jiraiya shook his head and said with a solemn expression, “That’s what I don’t understand, only one of them had the Rinnegan…” – After a pause, Jiraiya turned towards Chikushodo Pain and questioned, “Nagato, what happened to Yahiko?”

Chikushodo Pain spoke with a bit of melancholy, “Oh yes, there was such a fellow once, wasn’t there? But he died a long time ago.”

Jiraiya was shocked, “Nagato… what happened to you? The old you would never…”

Chikushodo Pain said lightly, “Nothing happened… nothing except for the war, too many people died in this land, all that pain forced me to grow up.”

“What does that mean…?” – Jiraiya questioned.

“That even innocent foolish children will grow up in the face of pain… until their thoughts and beliefs are the same as adults…”

“But abandoning once love for his friends and fellow man… is that really what it means to become adults?”

“Oh sensei… you are still merely a man, however I? Mired an endless pain, have matured, and become much more than a man.”

“What are you saying?”

“Yes, I’ve grown from a man… to a God. And since I am a God, all my words and thoughts have become absolute. Poor sensei… you are still only a human, it’s not your fault if you don’t understand what I am saying.”

“Have you really become that twisted?”

“Things that I couldn’t see when I was a human are clear to me now that I am a god, and being a God, I realize that there are things I can do which a mortal man cannot even dream of. Or to put it more simply, I have evolved beyond man.”

“Just what exactly are you planning to do?”

“At last, I am going to put an end to this senseless war-littled world, this will be my sacred deed.”

“All right, that’s enough, all you are doing is spreading chaos and more war with the Akatsuki.”

“It matters not if you, a human does not understand the words of a God… Your opinion is not taken into account, you are going to die anyway, Jiraiya-Sensei.”

…

…

…

…

“To me, you are like a single-celled organism, who hasn’t evolved at all.”

“Hahahaha… ‘Kuchiyose no Jutsu!’ Imagine a kid treating me like a kid! Well, I have news for you kid… I am not human anymore either! These tears of blood, overflowing with rage! I went from Sannin to Sennin! The monstrous toad of Mount Myoboku! I am Jiraiya-sama… aa… argh…”

“You haven’t matured at all Sensei… You are just as clumsy as ever!”

…

…

Even Kakashi and Guy did not know what to make up of this conversation…

Poof… Poof… Poof…

At this time Chikushodo Pain pressed his hands together, and three different white smoke explosions… when the smoke cleared, it revealed three different summon beasts, a giant snake Tailed Gecko, a giant bull, and finally a giant lion.

Seeing that the battle seems inevitable Jiraiya said to Kakashi and Guy, “Why don’t you two deal with all those Kuchiyose and buy me some time?”

Kakashi and Guy looked at each other and nodded.

“Why does he have so many of these Kuchiyose in the first place?” – Kakashi can’t help but mutter as both he and Guy ran towards them.

Jiraiya then continued “While I will teach this foolish disciple of mine some lessons that he has forgotten in the intoxication of power, Gamaken-san, against this foe there would be no fooling around… I am going to use Honored Sennin Mode.”

“What…?! You don’t mean?” – The toad Gamaken on top of whom Jiraiya was standing said.

“Yes indeed, I am summoning the two great toad sages! However, it’s going to take some time to summon the two of them, and I cannot release my hands during that time. I’m counting on you, buy me some time until then!” – Jiraiya said, as his hands were clasped together in order.

“All right, clumsy as I am, I shall try!” – Gamaken nodded. Compared to Gamabunta, Gamaken is more suited for defense, which is necessary for now as Jiraiya has to defend against many attacks for a little while.

Around the same time, Chikushodo Pain also hid inside the gecko, while the Shurado Pain and Gakido Pain were also ready for the upcoming battle.

At this time, the giant bird that was flying high in the sky suddenly scooped down towards the group.

Gamaken blocked the bird with his Shield.

Ding…

However, it seems that the momentum of the giant bird was too for Gamaken, not only did the floor beneath him collapse, even Gamaken was knocked to the ground.

Rumble… Rumble…

While Gamaken was down, the giant centipedes suddenly burrowed out of the ground and bit on the legs of Gamaken.

Gamaken couldn’t take care of all those injuries, he immediately turned over and inserted the Susamata on the head of the centipede to the ground… trapping it in place, making it difficult for the centipedes to move.

On the other side, Guy’s fighting spirit was over the notch, he was very eager to let his youth shine and this was clearly visible from the simultaneous powerful kicks he was raining on the bodies of the giant multiheaded dogs.

While Kakashi was dealing with the crab that can spit out soap water and the other centipedes.

The confrontation between Kuchiyose and Kuchiyose, and Kuchiyose and Shinobi was causing too much damage, the ground was shaking, walls collapsing, rocks flying everywhere.

Anyone below the strength of Jonin was not even suitable to be part of such destructive battles.

When Kakashi was about to finish off the crab with his Raikiri, he suddenly stopped, and in less than a second, he turned around to stab the enemy that suddenly appeared behind him.

Chirrrppp…

As soon as he turned, Kakashi clearly saw that this person was one of those three Akatsuki Members each with a pair of the Rinnegan who stood atop the tower just a while ago.

And so close to the other party, Kakashi’s attack was guaranteed to hit.

‘At such a close distance, he shouldn’t be able to escape!’ – With this confidence, Kakashi proceeded.

But just as Kakashi’s Raikiri was about to pierce through the opponent’s heart, suddenly the high concentration Raiton chakra on his right hand disappeared completely… it seemed as if it was absorbed by something… and Kakashi’s right hand that had lost its momentum was held by the opponent.

‘My Chakra… it vanished… or was it absorbed?’

Guy immediately noticed Kakashi’s predicament, his instinct kicked in and he instantly appeared next to Gakido Pain, to send him flying with a ‘Konoha Goriki Senpu!’.

But Guy’s ‘Konoha Goriki Senpu!’ was easily blocked by the opponent with his other hand.

The opponent is obviously none other than Gakido Pain, he wanted to kill these two hindrances before Killing Jiraiya.

Kakashi saw that both he, and Guy were held, and instantly tried to again bring out more lightning chakra to take advantage of this situation and pierce through the opponent’s heart, but apart from a few sparks, nothing more appeared, as all his chakra was being emptied out.

And this time, Kakashi saw it very clearly… he reached a clear conclusion, ‘The previous one specializes in Kuchiyose, while this one absorbs chakra… question is, can he use the same Jutsu that he has absorbed like Hiruko to cast the same ninjutsu?’

Gakido Pain stared at Hatake Kakashi and Might Guy with an indifferent expression then muttered to himself, “Hmm, Hatake Kakashi, and Might Guy… Hyuga Kuroto is not here… I suppose”

Before either of the two could react, to the enemy’s words, they were sent flying.

Heavily colliding with the walls, that almost broke the wall, Guy and Kakashi got up and stared at Gakido Pain.

Guy questioned, “You okay Kakashi…?”

Kakashi nodded, and said, “This one can absorb Chakra of any attack in an instant… Ninjutsu is probably ineffective against him.”

“Is that so? In that case, it’s time for the Blue Beast of Konoha to act!” – Guy said then instantly shouted, “Hachimon Tonkou: Keimon: Open!” and immediately a vapor of blue chakra burst out of Guy’s body… like an upwelling vortex with such intensity that even the rain that fell upon them was scattered.

“Konoha-aaa… where… where did he go?” – Just as Guy was about to attack the enemy, Gakido Pain suddenly took a step backward and disappeared into thin air.

Guy’s entire mood suddenly collapsed… he just opened ‘Hachimon Tonkou’, and the enemy had already disappeared.

Kakashi said, “Be careful, he has hidden inside the mouth of that strange Gekko.”

Although Gakido Pain’s speed was incredibly fast, it did not escape the insight of Kakashi’s Sharingan, in just a moment he discovered that Gakido Pain has hidden inside the mouth of Gekko.

Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh…

Just when Kakashi was telling Guy the location of the Gekko, suddenly missiles started coming towards them.

Guy looked up, and he knew that there is no way to counter so many of them at once… he instantly turned around, and ran out of the range of explosion while carrying Kakashi whose Chakra was absorbed by Gakido Pain.

But unexpectedly, the missiles all have a homing ability, and they continued to chase after Guy and Kakashi.

On the other side, Jiraiya was also having constant trouble as he had to face one Kuchiyose after another… but he persisted, and finally the two great toad sage, Fukasaku, and Shima appeared on Jiraiya’s shoulder.

Looking at Chikushodo Pain and the ripple pattern in his eyes, Shima spoke, “So that’s the Rinnegan, huh? It certainly does look like the one mentioned in the legends, doesn’t it?”

“What nasty eyes! I can’t believe that he is the ‘Child of Prophecy’!” – Fukasaku spoke incredulously.

Jiraiya said with a bit of hesitation, “I still want to persuade him… he can still turn for a better leaf.”

Toad Shima seemed displeased, “Is that even possible?”

Toad Fukasaku nodded, “Jiraiya-boy, that child has the Rinnegan, the fabled eyes of Rikudo Sennin, if we are any bit careless then it would mean certain death!”

It was at this very moment when Killer Bee finally got rid of all the entanglement and appeared next to Jiraiya, after a look at Jiraiya, Bee turned towards the direction they were all looking at, then asked, “So he is the leader of Akatsuki, got to do defeat him quickly, oh yeah!”

Jiraiya nodded, and questioned, “Where are Konoha and Suna units? I was informed that all units are rushing here, what happened to them? What are only Kumo assault units here?

Killer Bee replied, “Oh, Akatsuki has deployed a lot, forces of powerful men outside Amegakure, even Brother stayed behind to fight, Konoha and Suna are in similarity, only I was able to infiltrate… now I must act on the intended, yeh!”

After giving an answer to Jiraiya’s question, Bee then looked at Chikushodo Pain, and questioned, “Where are Yugito and Samui?”

Because Nii Yugito and Samui have been captured by Akatsuki Organization, Kumo’s current priority is to recover Nibi at all costs… as such Bee has to first confirm where Yugito is.

However, Chikushodo Pain did not reply to Killer Bee, but muttered to himself, “Hachibi’s Jinchuriki is finally here…”

Among the nine Bijuu, Hachibi’s strength is second only to Kyuubi. Akatsuki Organization has specifically deployed its members on several fronts in such a manner that Hachibi will be the only one to manage to some inside Amegakure aside from the four of team-11. As for bringing in team-11, well it is obvious to have a chat with Hyuga Kuroto and extract his memories to understand how did he obtain the location of Akatsuki’s base.

And well, Jiraiya was already present in the village.

Tap… tap… tap… tap… tap… tap…… tap…… tap…

Slowly and steadily the sound of someone walking over metal pipes came.

“Now that Hachibi is here… it’s time to put an end to this farce…” Then the indifferent words reached everyone’s ears… “Capturing Hachibi will be the second step to world peace…” – as Soon as those words were finished another shinobi with the Akatsuki Cloak and orange hair, and the same ripple pattern eye walked out and stood next to Shurado Pain.

This one is none other than Tendo Pain.

Jiraiya’s eyes narrowed in shock, “Y-Yahiko?!”

‘Oh yes, there was such a fellow once, wasn’t there? But he died a long time ago.’ These words of Nagato were repeated in Jiraiya’s mind, ‘Wasn’t he supposed to have died?’

Killer Bee was stunned, “What-w-w-what is going on? How come another Pair of Rinnegan is coming on, bakayaro, konoyaro?”

Jiraiya shook his head with a solemn expression, “No this is already the fourth pair!”

While Jiraiya and others were talking, Tendo Pain clasped his hands together, and instantly, a black dot appeared between his hands. The black soon expanded and was released into the air by Tendo Pain.

The black Ball soon flew higher and higher and its power started to take effect.

“Chibaku Tensei!” – Tendo Pain’s cold words reached everyone’s ears.

Whether it was Jiraiya, or Fukasaku and Shima on Jiraiya’s shoulders, or Killer bee, each of them felt an extreme threat from that.

It didn’t take long for their fear to be fulfilled as the ground beneath that ball dot started to crack and started to rise above, it was as if something was pulling it up in spite of the acting gravity.

Toad Shima who started to rise in the air despite the resistance she put can’t help but panic, “What’s going here Pa?”

Toad Fukasaku was not much different from Shima, and he spoke, “It should be some kind of ability of the Rinnegan.”

Killer Bee felt the crisis and Hachibi sealed inside Bee too felt it, he immediately said, “Bee… break free of the effects of that… otherwise we are done for!”

Jiraiya also found that his body was not under his control, “Damn!”

Under the high gravitational pull of Chibaku Tensei, everything was pulled towards it. Even the nearby tall buildings were no different for that matter.

Gradually its size grew and even the likes of Jiraiya in Sennin Mode and Killer were unable to resist being buried into the rubble and sealed inside it.

With the main troubles solved, Tendo Pain’s body slowly hovered above and spoke indifferently, “Now stay there as you are while I get rid of everyone that has no use…”
