Chapter 207: Chapter 207Hearing Gensou mention "your real body," Deva Path Pain's pupils constricted slightly. Without further words, his body moved, and the other five paths immediately followed, reigniting the battle.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
Asura Path was not idle, clapping its hands together, summoning a large number of beasts to charge at Gensou.
"Boring."
Gensou remarked indifferently, clapping his hands together:
"Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!"
A sea of flames, more than ten times larger than what a normal jonin could produce, swept towards both the summoned beasts and the Six Paths of Pain.
Before the beasts could react, Preta Path rushed forward, raising its hands toward the firestorm.
"Fūjutsu Kyūin!" (Sealing Technique: Absorption Seal)
A transparent barrier enveloped Preta Path.
As the flames engulfed it:
Sizzle sizzle sizzle...
The barrier greedily absorbed the firestorm at an incredible speed.
A few wisps of smoke rose.
Soon, Gensou's Great Fire Annihilation was completely gone.
"I almost forgot, the Rinnegan can absorb ninjutsu."
Gensou glanced at Preta Path.
It was similar to his Meiton (Dark Release).
However, Fūjutsu Kyuin could absorb not only ninjutsu but also senjutsu (Sage Techniques).
Now, he could understand how his past enemies must have felt when they faced him.
"No wonder you're so confident. Do you think the Rinnegan can restrain me?"
In the shinobi world, Gensou's strength was widely known, especially his mastery over an array of powerful ninjutsu and Kekkei Genkai.
From this perspective, Gensou was seen as a ninjutsu-type shinobi.
But in the face of the Rinnegan, none of that would work.
While Pain considered himself a "god," he was no fool.
Facing someone like Gensou, who stood alongside legends like Uchiha Madara, he had no intention of retreating; he had his own reasons for confidence.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
At that moment, Preta Path retreated, and Asura Path opened its wrist, launching a barrage of small missiles toward Gensou.
Ignoring the incoming missiles, Gensou focused on the large bull charging ahead. With a flip of his palm, under the stunned gazes of the Six Paths of Pain, a black rod emerged from his right palm. Just as the bull neared, Gensou sidestepped, swinging his right hand.
Boom!
The enormous bull, narrowly missing Gensou, suddenly collapsed as the black rod embedded deeply in its forehead. In an instant, it disappeared with a loud "pop."
The rest of the summoned beasts met the same fate. Even the multi-headed Hellhound, known for its splitting ability, couldn't escape. Once Gensou's black rod disrupted its chakra flow, it collapsed into a lifeless heap.
Seeing their summoning forces and Asura Path's missiles unable to harm Gensou in the slightest, Deva Path Pain stretched out his left hand, aiming at Gensou.
"Banshō Ten'in!" (Universal Pull)
With a "whoosh," Gensou's entire body was pulled toward Deva Path Pain.
Before they could collide, Preta Path and Human Path moved in from either side.
Preta Path extended its arms, attempting to hold Gensou from behind and drain his chakra, rendering him powerless. At the same time, Human Path reached out to press his palm against Gensou's forehead, ready to use Shinra Shindanshin (Mind Body Disturbance Technique) to read his memories.
Gensou watched calmly as Preta Path approached, allowing it to get behind him and begin absorbing his chakra.
Just as Human Path's hand was about to make contact...
At that instant, Gensou's gaze sharpened, and blue markings appeared around his eyes.
Behind him, the moment Preta Path began absorbing senjutsu chakra, its entire body froze. Then, in the next moment, its body exploded from the inside out, scattering into thousands of fragments.
While Fūjutsu Kyūin could absorb senjutsu chakra, directly absorbing too much into the body caused a violent imbalance between normal and senjutsu chakra, resulting in an uncontrollable natural energy explosion.
Seeing this, Human Path instinctively tried to retreat, but Gensou's hand moved with lightning speed.
Before Human Path could react, its head exploded like a watermelon smashing into the
ground.
Without a ripple of emotion in his eyes, Gensou turned his gaze toward Deva Path Pain.
Even though they were far apart, Nagato, controlling Pain from a distance, suddenly felt a suffocating pressure.
He immediately ceased Banshō Ten'in and switched to Shinra Tensei! (Almighty Push)
Boom!
A massive shockwave, like a mushroom cloud, once again swept out in all directions. This time, Gensou was pushed back far less, and he even had time to form hand seals. "Sage Art: Storm Release-Light Fang!"
At the moment Shinra Tensei dissipated, four beams of senjutsu-infused light shot out at incredible speed. Even with the Rinnegan's omnipresent vision through creatures like the chameleon, Pain couldn't react in time.
In an instant, the blue beams flew straight toward Deva Path, Asura Path, Animal Path, and
Naraka Path.
Nagato was clearly more careful with Deva Path.
Just as the beams reached him, Deva Path narrowly evaded, the blue light tearing through his
sleeve.
As for Asura Path, Animal Path, and Naraka Path, which had just summoned the King of Hell to revive the remnants of Human and Preta Paths, they weren't so lucky. Gensou's mastery of ninjutsu far surpassed the norm, and with the added power of senjutsu chakra, the speed and strength of his Storm Release: Light Fang were beyond comprehension.
The three paths only saw a flash of blue light.
In the blink of an eye, their headless bodies collapsed to the ground.
But it wasn't over. The remaining three beams, including the one Deva Path had barely dodged, suddenly curved, once again heading toward Deva Path.
"Shinra Tensei!"
Deva Path Pain didn't dare take chances. With Shinra Tensei just barely off cooldown, he unleashed it again, successfully deflecting the four beams, causing them to disintegrate
under the repulsive force.
Seeing this, Deva Path didn't even have time to breathe.
In front of him, Gensou, surrounded by clouds of dust, charged forward with unstoppable
momentum.
Realistically, with Gensou's strength, even without senjutsu, he could have defeated the Six Paths of Pain. It would just take a bit more time.
But since he would need Sage Mode to locate Nagato later using senjutsu sensing, he figured
it would be quicker to end things now.
In less than thirty seconds, five of the Six Paths of Pain had already fallen.
Gensou now fixed his gaze on the last one, Deva Path, his intent clear.
"Banshō Ten'in!"
With Shinra Tensei still cooling down, Deva Path used Banshō Ten'in to hurl a large boulder
toward Gensou.
Without even slowing, Gensou shattered the boulder with a single punch and, with a swift
step, appeared in front of Deva Path.
The latter tried to raise a hand to defend himself, but he was too slow.
Gensou's fist slammed into his chest.
Deva Path's torso collapsed backward, while his legs and head snapped forward, forming a V- seaʀᴄh thё Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
shape.
Immediately afterward, a deafening sonic boom resounded.
Deva Path was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing into the distance with a resounding
explosion.
