Double-transformation: I, Sakura Haruno! Will crush the pirates!

The tall and muscular Preta Path Pain raised his arms, aiming at the ninjutsu in front of him.

"Sealing Technique Absorbing Seal!"

A transparent membrane grows rapidly, and the high-speed rotating water curtain is absorbed by the membrane.

An endless supply of chakra was extracted from the ninjutsu, transforming the turbulent vortex into the purest water.

Seeing the passage open, the other Pains were preparing to rush forward, with the Animal Path even riding a chameleon to ambush Sakura.

"Summoning, devouring ninjutsu, repulsion force, internal weapons... these are truly incredible abilities!"

A deep, somewhat melancholic voice suddenly rang out, causing the attacks of several Payne members to falter.

"Little Jiraiya, you idiot, couldn't you have called for help from a safer place?"

"Don't say that~ Honey, Jiraiya has his reasons too."

Walking towards us from the water's surface against the surging air was a toad that had almost transformed into a human form.

Two toads stood on his shoulders, merging with his body using the immortal technique of dual rebirth.

"Sorry, boss, big sister!"

He spread his knees and jumped with force, creating ripples on the calm water.

The sensory ninjutsu imbued with chakra extended outwards, directly locking onto several Pain figures within the battlefield.

"I'm late, Sakura!"

"And Hama Ken, you can go back now!"

Having entered Sage Mode, Jiraiya appeared unusually serene and peaceful, his chakra seemingly enveloped in a thick layer of oil, making him appear blurry in Sakura's perception.

"Oh, honey, look at that!"

The sage Fukasaku, who had merged into Jiraiya's shoulder, whispered something.

"Hmm, what are you looking at?"

Master Shima turned his head in confusion.

"Over there, over there, the new contractor from the Wet Bone Forest that the master mentioned!"

Upon hearing Fukasaku's words, Shima's eyes widened, and he stared intently at Sakura.

"My two immortals, now is not the time for reminiscing!"

“Let’s go!”

Jiraiya gave a reminder, and his thoughts were transmitted to the minds of the two great sages through his connection with them.

"Oh, let me go first!"

Fukasaku took the lead, unleashing a tongue like a python from his mouth, which swiftly swept towards the chameleon in the distance.

'So fast! '

Before Pain of the Animal Path could even give the chameleon any orders, he was already entangled by Fukasaku's tongue.

The bumps on the tongue wriggled and spewed out acidic mist, instantly revealing the transparent chameleon.

"Water Release·Water Breaking Wave!"

Sakura formed hand seals, gathering a massive amount of chakra in her chest. The water she spewed out collapsed and transformed into sharp blades, shooting out with incredible speed.

It swiftly severed the chameleon, pierced its body, tore apart its rotting flesh, and exploded with a deafening roar.

"Oh, what a decisive child!"

The sage Fukasaku, having retracted his tongue, offered a word of praise.

"Then I'll come too!"

Jiraiya, accompanied by two sages, rushed out from the side, gathering chakra in his hands to form a giant dumpling.

Immortal method·Super large jade spiral pill!

boom!

The chakra, having undergone a transformation, became slender and elongated, like flying needles, spinning within the animal realm's body!

This body, along with the ground, was transformed into a giant crater.

"Kill one first!"

Jiraiya formed hand seals and turned around, but the Animal Path, with a huge hole in its stomach below, suddenly raised its hand, and a black thorn in its palm went straight for Jiraiya's head.

But the immortal's senses detected the attack before he could react, and he used the Tongue Binding Technique, wrapping his body around it and spewing acidic mist.

Master Shima also opened his mouth, unleashing the Magical Toad Singing Technique, which sent a surge of sound waves flying out.

Although the Animal Path was restrained by the ninjutsu of the two sages, the spread of the black thorns did not stop, and in the blink of an eye, it had reached Jiraiya's nose.

"Oh no, Jiraiya!"

"Flying Thunder God - Second Stage!"

The kunai shot out, its chakra connection piercing through space and time, locking onto the cherry blossom mark on the kunai's handle.

In that instant, a stream of light tore through space, and a small, fair hand, spanning hundreds of meters, landed on Jiraiya's back.

"change!"

He broke through space and time a second time, consuming a large amount of chakra to launch the Flying Thunder God Technique repeatedly with his men in a short period of time.

Sakura finally pulled Jiraiya out of this seemingly fatal attack, and her figure flashed as she escaped hundreds of meters away.

“Hoo…Hoo!”

Cold sweat trickled down Sakura's forehead; her adrenaline surged as she tried to save someone, causing her heart to race.

"Jiraiya-sensei, if you're this careless, I'll be in a lot of trouble!"

Sakura took out a Flying Thunder God kunai from her ninja tool bag and slipped it into Jiraiya's hand.

"Ah, sorry."

Jiraiya gave a knowing look and carefully placed the kunai close to his body.

Sakura understood that this was due to a difference in information between the two sides.

Even though she had done her best to convey Pain's information to Jiraiya, the situation was changing rapidly, and there was no time for Sakura to give Jiraiya a detailed lesson. It was inevitable that the information would be distorted in such a short time.

Ahead of the two, the phantom of Yama from the Hell Path dissipated, and the Animal Path, which Jiraiya had just managed to destroy, reappeared intact.

Pain, the Deva Path, led the Asura Path, Animal Path, and Preta Path to surround them again, while the Hell Path and Human Path slowly disappeared, concealing their forms.

"Recovery, offense, intelligence gathering, defense, summoning... this is practically a complete ninja unit..."

Seeing this, Jiraiya clearly felt the difference in strength between himself and the enemy, and his thoughts raced.

"Sakura, is there any other information?"

"That's all. That's all Itachi Uchiha gave us!"

Sakura's expression turned serious, and she shook her head helplessly.

"Then let's retreat first, report the situation to the village, and then investigate slowly!"

Jiraiya formed hand seals, bit his finger, and slammed his hands into the air, summoning the Gense-gama.

A deep blue toad crawled out of the lake, opening its mouth to reveal a passage leading into its stomach.

Jiraiya stepped one foot into the mouth of the toad, turning back to say:

"Yahiko, whatever happened to you, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly!"

"Don't even think about escaping!"

The Asura Path of Pain broke off its own arm, revealing numerous cannon barrels below.

As flesh tore apart and chakra surged, a large amount of flesh grew and transformed into missiles, which roared and streaked towards them with a trail of flames.

Animal Path claps its hands in the void, summoning Hell Crab, and then uses Summoning Amplification to make Hell Crab unleash Water Release: Bubble Wave.

The entire inland lake of Amegakure instantly transformed into a sea of ​​foam, swirling and surging towards them, washing away the Flying Thunder God seals that Sakura had released in various locations.

Pain, the Deva Path, unleashed three black spikes, the repulsive force of which shattered the air in front of him. The black Yin-Yang Release creations, like leeches clinging to a bone, relentlessly pursued him.

Wow, how enthusiastic!

"However, men who are too clingy are not very popular!"

Sakura's figure appeared in the path of all attacks, her Supreme Grade Sword Ace humming softly.

The Conqueror's Haki roared from the void, and black lightning suddenly expanded and erupted!

A faint pinkish arc of light swirled around the Supreme Grade Sword Ace, though it looked like an old, dilapidated light bulb, flickering on and off.

Sakura, inheriting Roger's swordsmanship, once again displays it in this world as she fiercely wields her sword!

"Wild Soul—!"

Clang! ! !

The intense, blazing power contained within the blade erupted forth, transforming into a devastating, raging strike!

With the most direct violence, it tore open the sea of ​​foam, shattered the rockets, and crushed Payne's black thorns.

Unfortunately, no matter how fierce the sword light was, it was difficult to overcome the repulsive force wall on Pain's body that blocked all ninjutsu and taijutsu!

Amidst the relentless turbulence and upheaval of the lake water, the phantom of Yama suddenly broke through the surface.

The giant maw opened, and two figures rushed out. One extended a black spike that pierced Sakura's chest, while the other pressed down on her head from behind.

"It seems your peculiar sensory ninjutsu is unable to detect the barrier of the Maw of Hell!"

Hell Path's cold gaze swept across, and the black thorns in his hand continued to spread.

"Dare to disobey God's will, this is the consequence you deserve, Heart Layer!"

Under the influence of the Rinnegan, the spirit of the Human Path pierced deep into Sakura's soul, attempting to read her memories.

Before my eyes, endless illusions appear, a deathly stillness and coldness emanating from the soul, an endless depravity.

It was like a real hell, tearing at the soul, endlessly eroding reason, threatening to make one sink into it and never be able to return.

Payne's consciousness slowly deepened, and at the very bottom of his soul, he suddenly saw a large golden egg.

[Announcement! Intrusion of alien mental energy detected. Do you wish to rule it out?: yes/no]

"No, buddy, I'll handle this myself!"

A crisp sound rang out in the darkness, and a smiling pink-haired girl was approaching him.

Human Dao was suddenly startled, only to find that he could no longer move.

"Pain... no, perhaps I should call you Nagato!"

Countless emotions churned within the girl's soul, yet her movements did not falter in the slightest, her consciousness grew ever clearer, and her eyes shone ever brighter!

"It's just a pity that we met so early!"

—I am no match for you now, and I admit defeat with immense pleasure.

But this will absolutely not be my defeat!

Within those emerald eyes, a burning will surged silently.

All emotions were swallowed up and burned by this will, converging into a rising force powerful enough to ignite the world.

All that remained was pure and straightforward fighting spirit. With the weapon formed from this will, it pierced through the chakra link and into the heart of the withered man whose body was pierced by multiple black thorns, far beneath Amegakure.

A colossal giant materialized before him, its spear whistling and its axe clanging as it unleashed a spiraling, black and pink attack.

"what!"

All six Paths of Pain were simultaneously impacted by this domineering aura, causing their connections to be interrupted.

The Animal Path and the Asura Path, who had rushed to chase Jiraiya, lost control and fell into the lake, sinking into the depths.

Sakura's chakra, guided by her spacetime perception, located Jiraiya's position. The next second, a flash of spacetime gently lifted the girl's body.

In the instant she was about to disappear, her eyes lowered slightly.

He looked at Payne, who was furious, on the surface of the water.

Sensing the anger and killing intent emanating from the purple Rinnegan, a smile appeared on her blood-stained, delicate face.
