Sasuke drew his bow and nocked an arrow, which flew out with burning black flames!
In an instant, their attacks collided with Itachi Uchiha's!
Boom! !
The series of explosions covered the entire land.
A violent tremor swept outwards.
But the two Susanoo remained majestic and unmoving, like mountains.
The flames subsided, and the dust settled.
Both of them were revealed to be unharmed.
"Sasuke, if you are struck by the Totsuka Blade, you will be forever trapped in the world of genjutsu."
"It's not too late to surrender now."
Itachi Uchiha looked at Sasuke calmly, as if he were generously offering him a way out.
"Humph……"
"Even the strongest weapon needs to hit its target, Itachi. You can't be that naive, can you?"
Seeing Sasuke's confident expression, Itachi didn't say anything more and simply raised the Totsuka Blade.
Respond with action
However, at that moment, suddenly, a sound like countless people praying rang out.
O~Li~Give~Big~~~~Pineapple~
Immediately, a god-like figure slowly descended from the sky.
Pain, the Heavenly Path!
Coming!
Chapter 117 Divine Descent—God A Went Up—God Falls
Buzz...boom!
An astonishing force suddenly pressed down from the sky; the suffocating pressure caused even Sasuke and Itachi's powerful Susanoo to tremble.
"Why is this guy here?" Itachi frowned slightly; he didn't like this unexpected turn of events.
What if this person hurts Sasuke? Itachi always felt that this self-proclaimed god-like leader was unfathomable.
"Uchiha Sasuke..."
Pain, the Deva Path, hung high above the clouds, his cold gaze piercing down like arrows.
"To trespass upon God's territory should, in principle, be certain death."
"But given that you brought the Nine-Tails with you, I can let you leave safely if you are willing to hand it over."
Nagato, who was manipulating everything behind the scenes, was secretly delighted. He hadn't expected Uchiha Sasuke to appear with the Nine-Tails, the most difficult creature to capture.
Their original plan was to quickly gather the other tailed beasts, leaving the strongest and most difficult to deal with, the Nine-Tails, for last. But now, it seems there's a chance to obtain this strongest power ahead of schedule.
In comparison, the deaths of Hidan and Kakuzu seem insignificant.
Therefore, for the sake of Kurama (the Nine-Tails), he could generously spare Sasuke.
but……
Once the Nine-Tails is taken, whether Sasuke survives or not is no longer his concern.
"Ha ha……"
Upon hearing this, Sasuke's lips curled into an indifferent smile.
"Want the Nine-Tails? Fine, come and get it yourself. You can't expect me to offer it up willingly."
Sasuke feigned nonchalance, as if he truly intended to hand over the Nine-Tails.
As he spoke, he actually dispelled Susanoo, revealing his true form to his enemy.
"They're quite sensible."
Pain cast an approving glance, then slowly descended and landed smoothly.
He wasn't worried about Sasuke playing tricks, because he was a "god" and had his own confidence.
Seeing that Pain had truly descended, Sasuke felt both amused and helpless; he seemed surprised that his opponent had fallen for his trick so easily.
"Did they really fool you into coming here?"
“If you had stayed at that high place, I might not have been able to do anything about you, but now…”
Before he could finish speaking, Sasuke suddenly launched an attack!
With a wave of his hand, thousands of bolts of lightning exploded, transforming into countless lightning needles that shot straight at Pain.
In an instant, the Lightning Release: Thousand Needles were almost upon him, yet Pain merely raised his eyelids slightly.
An invisible force instantly spread
hum...
The lightning rods seemed to be frozen solid, completely immobilized before Pain, unable to advance any further.
"Still want to put up a futile resistance? I thought you were a sensible person," Pain said, sounding somewhat disappointed.
Ultimately, the solution still has to be found through force.
"Then, your attack will be returned to its rightful owner."
With a gentle wave of his hand, Pain's lightning needles were instantly deflected.
Sasuke stood firm, a phantom image of a fox head appearing around him, transforming into an indestructible shield that blocked all the lightning rods.
ding ding ding...
"The time has come!"
Beneath the fox's head, Sasuke wore a triumphant smile.
After "Shinra Tensei" is cast, there will be a short five-second cooldown period.
The other party would never guess that they would have this information, right?
Whoosh!
Sasuke vanished from his spot in an instant!
When he reappeared, he was already standing in front of Pain.
"what?!"
Pain's pupils constricted; this speed was too fast!
puff!
Sasuke delivered a powerful punch, striking Pain's face squarely!
At that moment, Pain's face twisted like a piece of rubber that could be kneaded at will; the scene was incredibly shocking.
"Ah!"
Pain let out a piercing scream as he was sent flying like a kite with a broken string; his divine majesty vanished in that instant.
At the same time...
"Pfft!"
Deep within Amegakure, Nagato suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.
His chakra was connected to Pain's Deva Path, so Sasuke's attack also affected him.
"How is this speed even possible..."
Nagato's face showed shock, even though his Rinnegan could detect the enemy's movements.
But it was all in vain. The Deva Path Pain he controlled couldn't keep up with Sasuke's speed at all, and could only watch helplessly as the opponent's fist fell.
Everything seemed so futile.
"It seems we must send out the other five paths; the Heavenly Path alone is simply not enough to contend with Uchiha Sasuke."
Nagato's face darkened, and he slowly closed his eyes.
His chakra output surged, and his face contorted in pain.
Meanwhile, in a secluded corner, five figures slowly opened their eyes...
The scene cuts back to the battlefield.
"Hey, stop lying on the ground. That punch didn't completely knock you out."
Sasuke, seeing that Pain hadn't moved for a while, couldn't help but tease him.
Upon hearing this, Pain's Deva Path, who had been trying to stall for time until the other five Pains arrived, could no longer maintain his facade and had no choice but to slink away and get up.
