I am the new Hokage of Konoha.

Just as Pain's ninja shoe left a long mark on the head of the Gedo Mazo, a black rod suddenly emerged from his free hand and thrust straight at Yun Ting, who was rushing towards him.

Ta-da!

The battle continues.

Although Pain's physical skills were equally formidable, he was still no match for Yun Ting, whose physical abilities surpassed his own and who was like a perpetual motion machine.

Especially when Yun Ting's Wood Release also started to help.

Just now, a vine suddenly and rapidly extended from his arm, tightly wrapping around one of Payne's hands.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Pain unleashed the power of his Rinnegan.

Shinra Tensei!

Kacha kacha~

The vines instantly destroyed, and Yun Ting was sent flying backward with a "bang".

Then, the wooden man and the wooden dragon were pushed back slightly by this enormous force.

However, at that moment, two wooden clones instantly extended from Yun Ting's left and right shoulders as he flew backward in mid-air. As they were also pushed away, the two clones immediately pressed down on Yun Ting's main body with their hands and threw him upward with all their might.

Shinra Tensei repels everything around it from its own center, creating an area of ​​influence roughly in the shape of a semicircle.

Compared to horizontal distance, the range of vertical distance is undoubtedly shorter.

Two sounds of wood breaking rang out: "Bang!" "Bang!"

Having already calculated the distance, Yun Ting, who was now high in the sky outside the range of Shinra Tensei, flipped his hands, and a large number of Flying Thunder God Kunai shot towards Pain's vicinity like lightning.

"How could this be..." Payne Tong Kong suddenly shrank back, but it was too late to retreat.

when!

As one of the kunai deliberately collided with other kunai, it turned and flew behind Pain. In an instant, Yun Ting's figure appeared next to it.

Snapped!

Without any delay, Yun Ting pressed down hard on Payne's shoulder with his left hand.

Just as he clenched his right fist and threw a powerful punch at Payne, thus attracting Payne's attention.

The palm of Yun Ting's left hand, which had been placed on Pain's shoulder, rapidly produced one black tadpole-shaped spell pattern after another, which silently entered Pain's body.

Rumble~

Despite Payne's best efforts to defend himself, he was still thrown backward in a sorry state by Yun Ting's punch.

Seeing Yun Ting relentlessly pursuing him, and knowing he was nearing his limit, he forced his hands together in prayer.

"This is the only way..."

"Cough cough cough..."

Meanwhile, inside the paper-disguised tree, with tubes inserted into her back, the extremely weak Nagato coughed heavily and forcefully slapped her skinny, bony hands in front of her.

"Do you really have to use that move? Nagato, your body can't keep going like this," Konan said, her face full of worry.

She knew exactly what Nagato was going to do next.

However, although that technique was incredibly powerful, it consumed a large amount of Nagato's chakra and, most importantly, his lifespan.

This is undoubtedly an even heavier burden for the person whose physical condition is already extremely poor.

Nagato shook his head, as a terrifying amount of chakra was being depleted from his body, and he quickly said, "The Fourth Hokage was the strongest enemy I've ever seen. For our ideals, the god named 'Pain' cannot be defeated! Therefore, Super..."

Shinra...

On the battlefield, Pain, whose chakra fluctuations were more intense than ever before, also spoke at the same time.

Just as that terrifying technique, with a range of over ten kilometers and enough to wipe out an entire ninja village, was about to be unleashed.

Yun Ting, who was extremely close by, suddenly performed a single hand seal.

Instantly, Pain stopped speaking, and the technique he was about to unleash also paused.

In an instant, one black curse mark after another spread across his entire body.

The art of self-inflicted curses.

One of the sealing techniques collected by Konoha, the cursed seals covering the enemy's body can seal the enemy's movements.

Just now, when Yun Ting Flying Thunder God arrived behind Pain, he deliberately used this technique while holding down the opponent's left hand.

Although Pain's abilities allow him to remove the sealing technique from his body in the next second.

But all he needed was that one fleeting moment of opportunity.

Because at that moment he had already rushed in front of Payne, who was caught off guard.

"You can't use this technique."

Peng!

A dull thud rang out from where the two collided.

next moment.

Payne, who was now able to move, lowered his head, his eyes filled with disbelief.

This was because a long, powerful hand had already pierced through his left chest.

"God"...and thus fell.

Chapter 200: The Standoff Between Obito and Konan

Beep...beep...beep......

Although he was a corpse, his physical body could still function under the power of the Rinnegan. He was named Pain, but was actually Yahiko's dead body, and blood was dripping down from his chest.

Pain, or rather Nagato, had something else to say.

However, after the latter spoke, the former was too exhausted to say anything more.

When...when...when......

With a clever move, Yun Ting pierced Pain's hand and quickly knocked out the black rods stuck in the latter's body.

Payne instantly lost all his breath and collapsed to the ground with a thud after Yun Ting withdrew his arm.

At the same time, the chakra dragon that Pain had previously unleashed immediately dissipated, and the Gedo Mazo, amidst its unwilling roar, transformed back into a massive plume of white smoke.

"Next, we will go find your original body."

Yun Ting glanced down at the corpse on the ground, then picked up a broken black stick from the side.

After the destruction of the Six Paths of Pain, Nagato, who was unable to move and whose life could be taken by a small kunai, was simply an easy target for Yun Ting.

As for Konan, who was always by his side, although her strength was no less than that of the Five Kage, she could only buy him some time.

Next, Yun Ting aimed the tip of the black rod at his own arm and stabbed it.

Instantly, in Sage Mode, he clearly sensed the flow of black rod chakra and searched for its source, and soon his eyes lit up.

He pulled out the black stick, wiped away the bloodstains, tossed it aside, and looked eastward.

His target was hidden inside a large tree more than ten kilometers away.

"It's time to put an end to all this."

Yun Ting moved swiftly in a flash.

......

Meanwhile, inside the paper-thin tree, more than ten kilometers away.

The moment Pain collapsed, Nagato's face flushed an ominous red, and amidst a series of violent coughs, he involuntarily spat out a large amount of blood.

"Nagato!"

Konan rushed over and supported Nagato's body.

"Payne has lost!"

Since mastering the Rinnegan, Nagato, who called himself a "god," experienced utter defeat for the first time, and said in an extremely complicated tone.

The operation of the Akatsuki organization and the unfolding of the Ten-Tails Plan ultimately depended on his strength, which surpassed that of everyone else in the organization.

He thought that with the Rinnegan, he should be the strongest person in the ninja world.

But unexpectedly, there was an even higher mountain ahead.

With that person around, his plans, his ideals, and the path he has adhered to all these years are unlikely to be realized.

"Cough cough cough..."

Thinking of this, Nagato, suddenly feeling utterly disheartened, couldn't help but cough violently again.

"As long as we're still here, there's always a chance," Xiao Nan quickly reassured her.

She has always been a listener and implementer of Yahiko's ideals and actions, and has never had her own opinions. All she wants to do is follow him without regret, even if it means getting her hands stained with blood.

This is just her nature.

As long as she can continue walking with the person who has been with her for many years, that person's ideals are her ideals.

As Nagato's only remaining family member, Konan is undoubtedly the one who least wants to see anything happen to him.

Therefore, before the latter could say anything, knowing that she was no match for Senju Kumo-tei and could defeat Pain, she reached out and sent out a large number of paper pieces that immediately enveloped Nagato's body. Then she was about to quickly retreat with him.

However, at that moment, the swirling, distorted space suddenly began to ripple within the tree.

"Who?"

Just as Xiao Nan was about to turn around after noticing something was wrong behind her, a familiar voice rang out from inside the tree.

"it's me."

Obito Uchiha, who had been transferred from the Kamui dimension to the real world, spoke with Zetsu in tow.

How did you find this place?

Upon seeing an acquaintance, Xiao Nan showed no joy; instead, she asked coldly with a wary expression.

Nagato and she had always believed that they should be wary of this mysterious man who called himself "Uchiha Madara," Nagato's guide.
