Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

laugh!
A jet-black chakra rod suddenly extended from Pain's palm, while his other hand pointed forward.

The air was suddenly violently drawn in, the ground trembled, dust billowed into the sky, and withered grass, gravel, and mud were all thrown towards Pain by gravity.

A tremendous suction force pulled at Kiyoshi's body.

"The Heavenly Guidance of All Things..."

Kiyoshi's robes fluttered in the wind, and his hair flew wildly, but he stood still, completely motionless.

If you prepare in advance, blocking this move shouldn't be too difficult.

During Pain's attack on the village, Naruto, who had six tails, was able to block Pain's "Shinra Tensei".

"Universal Pull" is a similar eye technique to "Shinra Tensei," both of which utilize attraction and repulsion.

"Ok?"

Pain frowned, feeling as if he were trying to pull a deep iron pillar buried in the ground, but no matter how hard he tried, it was to no avail.

Just as Nagato behind him was trying to increase his chakra output, Kiyoshi made a move.

He did not resist gravity, but instead took a step forward, and his speed suddenly increased, like a black lightning bolt rushing straight ahead!

He quickly approached Pain, following the range of the "Universal Pull".

At the same time, he made a fist in his palm, and a long sword intertwined with lightning and flames appeared.

"He's getting closer thanks to gravity!"

Pain felt a sudden sense of unease and decided to immediately stop using "Universal Pull".

If Kiyoshi gets close, he might get injured before he can even use his chakra rods to stab Kiyoshi.

Unfortunately, before Pain could take any action, Kiyoshi was already in front of him and slashed out with his sword.

Pain quickly took a step back, but he was still unable to escape the range of this slash.

too fast!
Bang!
A blue chakra cannon shot instantly towards Kiyoshi's Lightning Fire Sword, causing the sword to deviate from its range by several centimeters.

Wow...

Pain's face was half-sliced ​​off, revealing the crimson muscles and cold puppet structure beneath.

He looked at Qing Si with fear in his eyes, then retreated hastily and quickly, landing on a tree branch.

"The Asura Path's...head laser cannon."

Kiyoshi turned around and recognized the move.

Half of Pain's head in the Asura Path bloomed like a flower, revealing the dark muzzle inside.

The chakra cannon we just heard was fired from the muzzle inside that cannon.

It is called "Head Laser Cannon".

When this technique was first demonstrated in the original work, it severely injured Utakata, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, with just this one move, demonstrating its immense power.

Kiyoshi learns about the power of this move through the story, and Nagato is also well aware of the power of his own technique.

He couldn't understand how the sudden attack had only slightly deflected Kiyoshi's sword swing.

The chakra laser cannon was aimed at Kiyoshi, but was blocked by the "Sage Cloak".

The remaining shockwaves did not damage Kiyoshi's internal organs.

"The strength of this physical body is probably comparable to that of the Third Raikage."

Nagato observed every detail of Kiyoshi through the shared gaze of the puppets.

He had heard the legend of the Third Raikage's hand-to-hand combat with the Eight-Tails, and he also knew that the Third Raikage had once fought against ten thousand men single-handedly.

But Uchiha Kiyoshi in front of him was clearly no less formidable.

"Psychic art!"

At this moment, Pain, the Animal Path, formed hand seals and slammed them onto the ground.

Bang! Bang! Bang...!
Several plumes of smoke rose in succession, and six enormous spirit beasts suddenly appeared.

Hellhound, Hellcrab, Yatagarasu, Bullfighting Bull, Chameleon, and Panda roared in unison, their imposing presence terrifying!
"Roar!"

The hellhound roared and charged at Kiyoshi first. Its ferocious orange-brown figure closed in on Kiyoshi in just a moment.

puff!

With a swift movement, Qing Si cleaved the Thunderfire Sword in two.

But the next second, the two body parts grew back into complete bodies, turning into two hellhounds!
Kiyoshi nodded slightly, having expected this.

This is because the Animal Path Pain used the B-rank ninjutsu "Amplified Summoning Technique" to enhance the Cerberus, giving it the ability to "multiply upon being attacked".

Unless the Animal Path Pain is dealt with, the number of Hellhounds will continue to increase under the "Amplified Summoning Technique" until Nagato's chakra is exhausted.

But each split only requires a reduction in chakra, and by then, it may have split into hundreds or even thousands of heads.

"Go, White Snake."

Kiyoshi waved his right hand.

The white snake that had been coiled around his sleeve responded to the call, drawing an elegant arc as it leaped into the air, dispelling the "transformation spell".

Her enormous serpentine body descended from the sky, the single horn on her head silently absorbing the churning negative emotions within the arena.

The summoned beasts summoned by Pain of the Animal Path swarmed forward upon seeing the white snake appear.

The white snake opened its blood-red maw and suddenly spat out flames.

The flames scorched the spirit beasts, suppressing their advance.

However, the hellhound also split into more and more pieces under the scorching flames.

Frustrated, the white snake slapped the ground with its tail, its body suddenly shrinking until it gradually transformed into a half-human, half-snake being.

Some black runes swirled around its body, making it look particularly terrifying.

Human Cursed Seal Mode!

The white snake reached out, and its purplish-black chakra transformed into the fangs of a ferocious beast, piercing the body of the Animal Path Pain.

The hellhounds that were splitting apart also stopped splitting at this moment.

Seeing this, the white snake turned back and raised her cold and beautiful face, pursing her purplish-black lips, as if expecting praise from Qing Si.

Kiyoshi nodded slightly and looked in the direction of the rest of the Pain.

"Alright, now that there are battles between summoned beasts, what methods will you use next?"

Kiyoshi did not use the mobility of the "Flying Thunder God Technique" to quickly end the battle, but instead planned to have these Pains use their unique eye techniques.

He is familiarizing himself with the eye techniques of the "Rinnegan" in advance, so that he will also obtain these basic eye techniques after he awakens the "Rinnegan".

Paji.

The King of Hell's tongue, like a hand, grabbed Pain and pulled him into his mouth, then closed his mouth tightly.

When it opened its mouth again, the unharmed Pain emerged from it.

"The puppet was repaired in an instant, that's really impressive."

Qing Si gazed at the King of Hell with great interest.

Judging from its appearance alone, the King of Hell is just a head standing on the earth.

Kiyoshi was very curious: besides repairing flesh and blood, how did the King of Hell repair the intricate puppet structure in an instant?
If this ability were broken down, it would probably yield the most powerful puppet repair technique.

It is the lifelong pursuit of the puppeteers of Sunagakure.

"You don't need to tell me the specifics."

Seeing that Kiyoshi's attention was drawn to the King of Hell, Pain of the Human Path used the "Body Flicker Technique" to rush behind Kiyoshi and attempt to grab him.

"If you get distracted during the battle, the consequences will be dire."

A faint purple chakra emanated from the Human Path Pain's hand, a manifestation of the "Soul Absorption Technique," a dojutsu that his puppet could control.

By simply pressing down on the other person's head or other body parts with your hand, you can instantly extract their soul, and the person whose soul is extracted will die immediately.

It can be described as a fatal blow; if a ninja who does not understand its principle were to be killed by a single flash of light.

Of course, if the target's chakra is too strong, the speed of soul extraction will be greatly slowed down.

However, Nagato conducted experiments using the Human Path of Pain, demonstrating that even Jonin-level chakra could be instantly extracted from his soul.

It shouldn't take too long to use this on Uchiha Kiyoshi now.

A look of excitement appeared on the face of the Human Path Pain; his sneak attack had succeeded!

Furthermore, before extracting Kiyoshi's soul, he was able to use "Heart Layer Dive" to read Kiyoshi's memories, obtaining his various ninjutsu techniques and the process of developing his bloodline limit.

However, things didn't go as smoothly as Pain had imagined, despite his best wishes.

His hand went straight through Kiyoshi's head, but missed.

"Afterimage?"

Pain, the Human Path expert, was taken aback.

"When did you start having the illusion that you're faster than me?"

Kiyoshi's voice rang out from behind Pain of the Human Path.

With a side kick, he shattered the Human Path to pieces on the spot.

If one attempts to repair it using the Hell King, these parts will need to be collected little by little.

"Weird Arm Rocket!"

Pain's fists broke off at his wrists and flew out quickly.

This swift scene appeared extremely slow to Kiyoshi under his Sharingan.

It doesn't look like a rocket flying in the air, but rather like a fish swimming slowly in the water.

Kiyoshi elegantly used his Thunderfire Sword to cleave away the two fists that flew towards him from Asura Pain, while simultaneously making a fist with his left hand.

Black lightning crackled and gathered in his palm, eventually taking the shape of a lightning spear.

Lightning Release: Lightning Spear!

A blinding bolt of lightning struck Pain in an instant, pinning him firmly to the ground.

"Three more to go."

As they spoke, Kiyoshi dealt with the combined attack of Pain's Deva Path and Pain's Hell Path while forcefully cleaving through the summoned Hell King with his Thunderfire Sword.

As the King of Hell dissipated into a wisp of smoke, these puppets lost their means of repair.

Nagato's face was extremely grim; he hadn't expected Kiyoshi to be so difficult to deal with.

Now he only has two puppets left to use: the Deva Path Pain and the Preta Path Pain.

Obito, who had been observing the situation from the sidelines, also looked rather grim.

At this moment, he and Nagato were on the highest, most dangerous peak, and Nagato used the puppet's shared vision to observe the battle.

He used the dynamic vision of the Mangekyou Sharingan.

"You can't even deplete Uchiha Kiyoshi's eye power?"

Obito was somewhat disappointed in Nagato.

He began to think that it was no wonder Madara Uchiha would use Nagato as a pawn for resurrection, rather than someone else.

Indeed, Nagato's greatest responsibility, from beginning to end, was to familiarize himself with the abilities of the "Rinnegan" and, at the right moment, use his own life as the price to revive Uchiha Madara using the "Outer Path: Samsara Reincarnation Technique".

"Uchiha Kiyoshi also possesses the secret technique of 'Wood Release.' Even if we try to wear him down, how long do you know?"

Nagato retorted coldly.

"There was only one Hashirama Senju. Uchiha Kiyoshi's knowledge of Wood Release techniques doesn't mean he possesses the same abilities as Hashirama."

Obito shook his head.

It's not just Kiyoshi in Konoha who knows the "Wood" Release technique. According to the information gathered by White Zetsu, there is another ninja codenamed Ko or Tenzo who also knows it.

His cells were not nearly as powerful as those in the "Hill-shaped cells".

Those who were able to use the "Wood" Release technique were merely lucky experimental subjects.

This is also the source of Obito's confidence.

If Uchiha Kiyoshi had received a transplant of "Hashirama cells" like himself, he wouldn't have had his subordinates fight Kiyoshi today. Instead, he would have quietly accumulated strength and waited for a better opportunity.

"Alright, I'll take action."

Obito said quietly.

Ah Fei had already gone into hiding when the war started.

To outsiders, it appeared as if he had used space-time ninjutsu to teleport to Nagato's location.

"So much the better."

Nagato took a breath and stuffed a few soldier rations into his mouth.

Nagato didn't know how much Uchiha Kiyoshi had expended, but it was certainly considerable for him.

One person has to focus on controlling multiple puppets in battle while also managing chakra transfer; it's incredibly mentally taxing and consumes a lot of chakra. *Hiss*

A spatial ripple led Obito to a deserted mountain forest.

"Will you wear me, Obito?"

Ah Fei came out to help, and Spiral's face began to crack.

Obito nodded, removed his mask, and entered Tobi's body through the opening on his back.

Those blooming white flesh and blood gradually wrapped tightly around the soil.

No matter how many times you enter, you will feel a tightness.

Obito shook hands with Tobi, feeling the boost that Tobi was giving him.

Afei is like an external suit of armor; once he puts it on, it greatly enhances his chakra and regenerative abilities.

Obito adjusted Tobi's mask to make it more secure.

Then he put the mask in his hand into the Kamui dimension.

He himself already possessed a half-body artificial body made of "Hashira cells".

With the addition of an extra layer of "Hashirama cells" on the outside, the android Tobi's physical attributes are improving in all aspects.

It's important to know that the reason he was able to escape from the underground cave where Madara was, despite his weakened state, was because of Tobi's strength.

Now, with Afei's power combined, he will only become stronger.

Moments later, Obito arrived at the battlefield.

The canyon that had just been there was shattered during the fierce battle between Kiyoshi and Pain.

"What exactly is going on with that snake?"

Obito frowned.

Kiyoshi's summoned beasts can even transform into human-like forms and control a special kind of chakra.

That chakra gave Obito an evil feeling, seemingly even more evil than the Uchiha chakra, as if it were a product of a mixture of various negative emotions.

"That's all."

Obito shook his head, focusing his attention on Kiyoshi, waiting to launch a sneak attack at any moment.

At this moment on the battlefield, Kiyoshi spewed out orange liquid from the sky.

Lava Release: Lava Monster Technique!
The Hungry Ghost Path Pain immediately stepped forward, unleashing a semi-transparent shield.

Sealing Technique Absorption Seal!

The solution that Kiyoshi spat out landed on the shield and was quickly absorbed.

laugh.

Kiyoshi pulled a bone from his arm, forming it into a drill-like shape, and threw it at Pain of the Hungry Ghost Path.

The Hungry Ghost Path Pain maintained the "Sealing Technique Absorption Seal," intending to absorb the incoming bone drill as well.

Click!

The next moment, half of his body was torn apart and thrown away by the spinning bone drill.

He can't absorb Kiyoshi's techniques!
"Bones are real, tangible matter."

Qingsi smiled.

The ability of "Shikotsumyaku" is to manipulate bone cells to make various changes, rather than creating bones out of thin air using chakra.

Essentially, it's just about growing bones, then shaping them and throwing them away.

The "Sealing Technique Absorption Seal," which can only absorb ninjutsu, cannot absorb such a substance.

Ultimately, it was because Nagato lacked experience; he spent most of his time in the Land of Rain and never fought against the Kaguya clan.

"Uchiha Kiyoshi, do you perhaps think that with each puppet you destroy, you'll get one step closer to victory?"

Nagato, controlling Pain, made sarcastic remarks.

Big mistake!

He could conveniently avoid using chakra to maintain the extra puppets and concentrate all his chakra on Pain.

He can now use... a more powerful eye technique.

Pain floated in mid-air, spreading his hands and speaking in an arrogant manner:

"Those who have never experienced pain will never understand true peace. From this moment on, truly experience pain, Uchiha Kiyoshi!"

As soon as the words were spoken, an invisible repulsive force rapidly spread out.

Super Shinra Tensei!
A blinding white light enveloped the area in an instant.

boom! ! !
A burst of white light suddenly erupted, and the repulsive force swept across the entire battlefield!
The earth collapsed, and the mountains trembled!
Konan was a little far from the battlefield where Kiyoshi and the others were fighting, and could only feel a gust of wind rushing towards her.

Before she could do anything, the flight came to an abrupt halt.

Xiao Nan looked up and saw a huge black half-giant blocking her way.

Then, the giant developed limbs and stood up from the ground.

His tall figure looked down at everything below.

"The power is pretty good."

Kiyoshi looked at his Susanoo, which had been shattered with a large hole, its ribs cracked, and its meridians and flesh destroyed by the repulsive force.

With his continued infusion of chakra, the form of "Susanoo" gradually returned.

This is the fourth stage of "Susanoo," whose defensive capabilities have been further enhanced.

Furthermore, due to Kiyoshi's control over chakra and the solidity of his chakra, his defensive capabilities far surpass those of a typical Susanoo.

"It almost tore my Susanoo to shreds!"

Qingsi smiled slightly.

He stood in front of Pain and was the first person affected by the repulsive force.

The power of "Super Shinra Tensei" is almost enough to destroy the entire Hidden Leaf Village, blasting everything out of its range.

In the original story, many ninjas survived because Tsunade summoned slugs, which then dispersed to protect the ninjas.

If someone were to take that blow head-on, very few would emerge unscathed.

"what!"

Nagato, far away on the mountain peak, coughed up blood and became much thinner.

"Super Shinra Tensei" is his trump card; using this move will even shorten his lifespan.

But Uchiha Kiyoshi blocked it with just a little chakra?

"You have every reason to be proud that you were able to defeat my current Susanoo."

When Kiyoshi spoke, "Susanoo" had already returned to normal.

The entire process takes no more than three seconds.

"Hmph... Planetary Devastation!"

Nagato squeezed out more chakra, controlled Pain's Deva Path, and after clasping his hands together, a black sphere floated into the sky.

Rumble.

The earth shook violently, trees were uprooted, and pieces of soil and pebbles floated up.

A spherical shape quickly formed in the air and hovered above.

Konan, who was in the distance, also felt the attraction and quickly gathered her chakra in the soles of her feet to stabilize herself.

"A plain cup, a toast!"

Strange patterns appeared in Kiyoshi's left eye.

Suddenly, a vortex appeared in the space, and the electric arcs inside the vortex spun like flowing water.

The mud and rubble kicked up by "Planetary Devastation" were all swept into the vortex.

The circular shape also began to twist within the vortex.

A moment later, "Planetary Devastation" vanished without a trace, and the vortex formed by Kiyoshi's eye technique also gradually disappeared.

The scene was completely silent, and the Akatsuki members were dumbfounded.

Kiyoshi's "Susanoo-no-Zun" has only been shown once, and it remains a very mysterious technique for them.

"Absorbing ninjutsu?"

"Scorpion murmured."

There are actually such terrifying techniques.

He had seen Pain's abilities before, but only within such a small area, and they were nothing like this.

Moreover, it seems that one cannot move while absorbing ninjutsu.

This is a detail that the scorpion secretly observed.

"It seems you don't have any other abilities, Nagato."

Kiyoshi controlled Susanoo to reach out and grasp Pain's body.

With a snap, it was crushed.

Then, he swung the arm of Chuck that extended from behind Susanoo, his left hand nocking a bow and his right hand drawing the string, and a black arrow instantly flew into the distance.

Ten no Kakuya!
call out!
Nagato coughed twice, then quickly pushed the puppet machine under his feet and ran outside.

Rumble!
"Ame no Kakuya" was faster than Nagato could have imagined; he was overtaken after only two steps.

Without time to think, he had no choice but to use the "Sealing Technique Absorption Seal" to absorb some of the chakra.

However, the shockwave and tumbling boulders after the explosion were byproducts of ninjutsu and could not be absorbed.

Nagato was like a kite with a broken string, being tossed about wildly.

"You have learned a new term: [Term: Power of Heretics (Gold)]".

[Entry: The Power of Heretics (Gold)]

[Requirement achieved: Defeat the young Nagato.]

Progress: (Completed)

[Effect: Your physical body will begin to nourish the "heretical power".]

Your Puppetry talent has been increased by 300%.

Your puppetry power has been increased by 300%.

Your speed of developing puppetry has increased by 300%.

Your psychic talent has been increased by 300%.

Your insight has increased by 300%.

【Note: You can continue to advance later. 】

"The power of heretics?"

Kiyoshi glanced at it briefly and found that, apart from some basic bonuses, this extra effect was the most unique.

"Can I create a weapon with the same function as the chakra rods?"

Kiyoshi stroked his chin.

There are two ways to generate chakra black rods: one is to use the "Rinnegan" to create them, and the other is for people with Yin-Yang attributes to use "Yin-Yang Release Techniques" to create them.

Inserting black rods into an opponent's body can seal the pressure points through which the opponent refines chakra and disrupt the opponent's chakra. This method is also effective against tailed beasts.

This is because it contains "heretical power," hence it has various wondrous uses.

Kiyoshi doesn't know how to make chakra rods yet, but he can attach "Outer Path Power" to kunai, shuriken, or his ninja sword to achieve the same effect.

"Kiyoshi, don't harm Nagato's life."

Xiao Nan, who was some distance away, rushed over and said urgently.

She shared a deep bond with Yahiko and Nagato, and they couldn't bear to see any of their trio die.

"Miss Xiao Nan, there's no need to worry about that. Just don't forget my payment."

A slight smile appeared on Kiyoshi's lips.

It's not impossible to spare Nagato's life; in the original story, Nagato would blush when Konan comforted him by holding his hand.

This shows that Nagato wasn't entirely without thoughts in her mind; it was just another melodramatic love triangle.

Yahiko also liked Konan, and coincidentally, Konan also liked Yahiko. For the sake of her good friend, she chose to withdraw voluntarily.

Kiyoshi was very curious about Nagato's reaction when Konan took on his form. (End of Chapter)
