Naruto: Naruto Hosted by the System

After defeating the three-headed dog, Naruto immediately conjured a purplish-black Rasengan.

"Tailed Beast Ball Rasengan!"

The monstrous amount of chakra was compressed into the size of a Rasengan; if it hit, it could kill both the lizard and Pain.

However, at that moment, a fat man with brown hair and black nails in his face suddenly appeared in front of the lizard and stretched out his hands. The Tailed Beast Ball Rasengan containing terrifying energy was absorbed by him without even an explosion.

What caught Naruto's attention even more was that this person also had the Rinnegan!

Through his senses, Naruto knew that the person in front of him was actually just a puppet, not someone with two pairs of Rinnegan.

"The Rinnegan's ability? And this guy can absorb ninjutsu just like Samehada."

Thinking of this, Naruto suddenly revealed a malicious smile.

"Then you try absorbing this!"

"Sage Art: Pure Natural Energy Rasengan!"

He temporarily switched to the system and, with his extremely precise control, successfully created a Rasengan made entirely of natural energy, which he then threw at his opponent.

Upon seeing this, the fat Pain in the "Hungry Ghost Path" raised his hands again to absorb the ninjutsu, and soon absorbed the entire Rasengan.

"Hmph, just trying to be mysterious..."

However, as soon as the hungry ghosts finished speaking, they became completely still, their bodies gradually developed frog-like features, and in the end, they were petrified!

After regaining control of the body, Naruto immediately grinned and said, "Let's take care of one first."

Upon seeing this, Payne, who had been hiding inside the lizard's mouth, quickly emerged and used a summoning technique.

"Spiritual communication!"

This time, in addition to a strangely shaped bird, four people were summoned!

These four people also had black nails in their faces and possessed the Rinnegan; they were clearly the remaining four puppets.

Upon seeing this, Jiraiya's eyes widened in fury.

"Yahiko! It's you? Where's Nagato?"

Standing in the middle, Pain, with his spiky hair, glanced coldly at Jiraiya but ignored him, focusing instead on fighting Naruto, because he felt immense pressure from Naruto.

The middle-aged, cold-faced Pain of the Hell Path raised his hand, and a strange, purple-faced giant head with the character "王" (king) on ​​its forehead appeared before him. It opened its mouth and swallowed the Hungry Ghost Path, which had been petrified. When it spat it out, the Hungry Ghost Path had returned to its original state.

Naruto raised an eyebrow upon seeing this, intending to take down the Hell Path, which possessed healing abilities, first, but the bald Pain, the Asura Path, took the lead and suddenly pulled out his left arm.

With a whoosh, the hand was found to be bulging with missiles.

whoosh-

Dozens of small missiles were launched at once, their flight paths unpredictable, but their ultimate target was undoubtedly Naruto, just like the Uchiha Throwing Technique.

Then Naruto activated Sage Fox Mode, his entire body turning golden, unleashing a massive amount of Nine-Tails chakra that condensed into a golden fox head, and let out a roar.

Roar! !

The missile was detonated in mid-air, and even if it managed to break through the blockade and reach Naruto, it was completely unable to penetrate the fox head's defenses.

Just then, Pain, whom Jiraiya had just called "Yahiko," raised his hand.

"Universal Guidance!"

Naruto suddenly felt a powerful suction force and was uncontrollably pulled out of the fox's head and dragged over.

Naruto was slightly surprised, but he did not lose his composure. Instead, a large amount of steam emanated from his body.

"Boiling Release: Unparalleled Strength!"

Naruto turned the tables, using the opponent's suction force to further amplify the power of his attack. With the added propulsion of a large amount of steam, his fist slammed towards Pain with the force of a thunderbolt!

Pain sensed extreme danger and had to change his strategy.

"Shinra Tensei!"

Just as Naruto's fist was about to smash into Pain's face, a powerful repulsive force suddenly came, trying to push Naruto away.

However, at this moment, Naruto was being pushed towards Pain by the steam, and the two were locked in a stalemate.

Although Pain's face remained expressionless, he was inwardly utterly shocked.

This person... can actually contend with Shinra Tensei!

Finally, Naruto suddenly increased the amount of Five-Tails chakra he poured in, more steam rose from behind him, and he accelerated sharply, rushing directly in front of Pain.

At the critical moment, the Preta Path Pain stepped forward, pushed the Deva Path Pain aside, and took the punch from Naruto in his place.

The price was that Pain's head was knocked off.

Just as Naruto was about to completely destroy the Preta Path Pain to prevent him from being resurrected by the Hell Path Pain, dozens of whooshing sounds came from the air.

It was another missile from the Asura Path of Pain, but this time it was more than just missiles.

Suddenly, Pain's left fist was also used as a weapon and fired. At the same time, his bald head "had a wild idea" and split into several pieces, from which a powerful laser cannon shot out.

Faced with a barrage of attacks, Naruto had no choice but to retreat while using the Seven-Tails' chakra to cover his body with an incredibly hard exoskeleton, successfully withstanding the Asura Path Pain's attacks.

However, due to this delay, the body and head of the Preta Path Pain were snatched away by the giant bird summoned by the Animal Path Pain, and were quickly sent to the mouth of the purple giant head of the Hell Path Pain, where they were resurrected once again.

After the initial probe, the system collected a lot of information and began to analyze the Six Paths of Pain.

[Pain's six puppets have only demonstrated one ability so far, suggesting they each have a specific role and are responsible for different abilities of the Rinnegan.]

[Known abilities include: healing, gravity, repulsion, summoning, chakra absorption, and missiles; the remaining ability of Pain is currently unknown and requires further investigation.]

The Six Paths of Pain possess such a wide variety of abilities that they cover almost every aspect of life, making them virtually without any weaknesses.

However, Naruto showed no fear on his face; instead, he appeared somewhat excited.

"Very good, very good, it just needs to be stronger, otherwise you can't get much compatibility."

The Six Paths of Pain are indeed very powerful; it's no exaggeration to say that they could even destroy a great nation.

However, this level is still completely under control, because Naruto neither used Six Paths Mode nor switched to a controlled mode or released the Nine-Tails and the system to assist in the battle.

Just then, the long-haired Pain who hadn't made a move yet finally did.

He arrived beside Pain, who promptly raised his hand.

"Universal Guidance!"

Perhaps because he infused more chakra, the suction force was incredibly strong this time, so much so that Naruto didn't have time to use Boil Release like before.

In desperation, Naruto used the Seven-Tails' chakra to create an exoskeleton on his body, intending to use this opportunity to test the abilities of the long-haired Pain.

Suddenly, a surge of soul power erupted from the hands of the long-haired Human Path of Pain, who grabbed at Naruto and actually pierced through his exoskeleton, seizing his soul!

This is the power of the Human Path of Pain; he can actually extract the soul of his enemy.

Seeing that Naruto had fallen victim to the Human Path's attack and the outcome was already decided, Pain coldly said, "Challenging a god is foolish."

However, at that moment, Pain pulled hard several times, but Naruto's soul remained unmoved.

"You call yourself a god?" Naruto asked slowly.

"Then what should I, who have seized the authority of the gods, be called!"

Chapter 113 The True God—Naruto

Seeing that he was unable to extract Naruto's soul from his body, Human Path Pain's expression changed.

He immediately increased his chakra output, and purple light even appeared on his hands.

Logically speaking, even among Kage-level powerhouses, very few have the opportunity to cultivate the strength of their souls. Therefore, whenever Human Path Pain captures a soul, the outcome is basically predetermined.

However, when facing Naruto, his past experience was useless. No matter how much chakra he poured in, he could not shake Naruto's soul in the slightest.

"How is this possible? How could a mere mortal possibly resist divine punishment!" Pain, the Human Path, was furious, desperately trying to extract Naruto's soul.

He even infused the puppet with the maximum amount of chakra it could withstand, and finally! Naruto's soul emerged!

However, he quickly realized something was wrong; Naruto's soul didn't seem to have been extracted by him... rather, it seemed to have walked out on its own?!

Naruto's soul looks similar to him, only more ethereal, more mysterious, and for some reason, Naruto's soul gives people the feeling of a grim reaper!

"Have you made enough of a scene?"

Naruto's soul spoke slowly and deliberately, then suddenly reached into the Human Path of Pain's body and pulled out a soul without any obstruction!

"Not good!" Pain, or rather, the mastermind behind the Pains, sensed something was amiss.

But then he realized that now that Naruto's soul had left his body, his physical body was unattended and must be very vulnerable, which was a good opportunity to deal with him.

"Shinra Tensei!"

Pain suddenly exerted a powerful repulsive force on Naruto's body, trying to push him into the encirclement of the other Pains.

However, Naruto's body remained completely still, like a towering tree with its roots firmly planted in the ground.

Pain looked closely and saw that Naruto's body was covered with extremely condensed chakra, which firmly fixed his feet in place. In addition, Pain reduced the power of his moves in order to pursue speed, which is why he was unable to shake Naruto.

But why can his physical body use chakra on its own?

Just as Pain was wondering, he inadvertently noticed out of the corner of his eye that Naruto's body... had moved.

"Insect bites!"

The exoskeleton, made using the Seven-Tails' chakra, is somewhat similar to a tailed beast's chakra cloak. It has seven tails and can even fly if necessary.

At that moment, the seven tails instantly transformed into weapons, attacking Pain simultaneously.

Its seven tails swung up and down at high speed, making it look like the mouthparts of a giant beetle, ready to tear the enemy in front of it to shreds!

Pain had just used Shinra Tensei and was unable to use it for a short time, making the situation extremely critical.

"Universal Guidance!"

At the critical moment, the manipulators behind Pain went all out and controlled the Deva Path Pain to immediately exert a powerful gravitational pull.

However, the object of the gravity was not Naruto, but Pain, the Human Path, who was standing next to him!

At this moment, the person behind Pain, fearing that his soul would be extracted by Naruto, has released his control over the Human Path Pain.

Considering that the Human Path Pain's "Soul Absorption Technique" was useless against Naruto, they simply used the Human Path Pain as a meat shield to protect the more effective Deva Path Pain.

The seven tails on Naruto's exoskeleton instantly tore the Human Path Pain to pieces, but as a result, the Deva Path Pain only suffered minor scratches.
