Limbo: Border Jail

After the Yata Mirror was dealt with, only a Giant Centipede remained in the arena. This giant summon did not attack Yichen; its mission was to rescue Nagato from the Kunai Rain.

The Giant Centipede was also in bad shape, because Yichen sensed that Nagato was inside its mouth, so Kunai Rain kept chasing and attacking it.

With a bang, the Giant Centipede, covered in wounds, vanished, leaving behind a plume of smoke. Nagato then slowly emerged from the smoke.

As for the Three-Headed Hellhound behind the Earth Style: Earth Flow Fortress, it was sealed by the mud transformed from Kunai Rain after Nagato left.

Those that can't be killed will be sealed away. Yichen has many methods and isn't afraid of these strange things.

At this point, all the giant Summoning Beast that Nagato had summoned disappeared.

Nagato extended a hand towards Yichen: "Banshō Ten'in."

Although they were far apart, Yichen couldn't help but fly quickly towards where Nagato was.

Long-range combat is disadvantageous for Nagato. The Rinnegan grants many abilities, but not all of them directly aid in combat; many are supportive.

With Six Paths of Pain gone, Nagato's fighting methods have become much less diverse.

The advantage of Senjutsu amplifying Ninjutsu greatly reduced the gap between the two sides.

Therefore, Nagato chose close combat. He had previously given the initiative to Yichen, but now he was taking the initiative for the first time to regain it.

As Nagato pulled Yichen towards him, he also rapidly approached Yichen.

"Kunai Rain." Yichen remained calm and instead used the suction force of Nagato's Nagato Banshō Ten'in to unleash Kunai Rain.

Kunai Rain rushed toward Nagato at an incredible speed.

Nagato frowned, not expecting this turn of events, and switched to a different Ninjutsu.

Shinra Tensei.

Shinra Tensei.

The first shout came from Nagato, but the second was shouted from Yichen.

Nagato wanted to use Shinra Tensei to stop Kunai Rain, but Yichen wanted to use Shinra Tensei to speed up Kunai Rain.

With the two gravitational forces clashing, Yichen's Shinra Tensei was far less powerful than Nagato's.

However, Yichen's Kunai Rain was already moving very fast due to Nagato 'Banshō Ten'in, so it was not immediately thrown away, but went through a process of first slowing down and then flying back in the opposite direction.

Originally, this process wouldn't have taken long, but it was prolonged due to the interference of Yichen Shinra Tensei.

This left Nagato unable to simultaneously deal with the Kunai Rain of kunai shooting from behind and above.

Nagato stretched out his other hand and aimed it behind him, unleashing Shinra Tensei once more.

At this point, Nagato no longer had the strength to deal with the Kunai Rain overhead.

Yahiko and Konan exclaimed in unison, "Nagato, be careful!"

The next moment, snap, snap, snap, snap.

The sound of countless splattering mud hitting his body echoed from where Nagato was.

At the last moment, fearing he might hurt Nagato, Kunai turned the Yichen into mud.

The mud didn't hit Nagato, but instead struck about half a meter above his Nagato.

There was clearly nothing there, but Yichen's mud seemed to be blocked by something, unable to pass through.

Kindness?

Yichen's fighting style relies primarily on his mental insight, not his Mind's Eye.

Through his Mind's Eye's eye, he sensed another figure above Nagato's head.

This is... the Rinnegan Dojutsu: Limbo: Border Jail?

Yichen carefully observed his surroundings with his using Mind's Eye; there was only one there.

Is it that Nagato can only summon one, or is he holding back and only using one?

A large amount of mud was thrown onto the Nagato Limbo: Border Jail clone, Yichen immediately controlled the mud, preparing to seal it.

Meanwhile, a large amount of mud continued to surge towards this Limbo: Border Jail clone.

Nagato had now freed up his hands. While controlling his Limbo: Border Jail clone to leave, he unleashed Shinra Tensei into the sky.

All the Kunai near Nagato were briefly deflected.

Ignoring Nagato body, Yichen immediately surrounded the Limbo: Border Jail clone with the Kunai he controlled in the air.

Then, to Nagato's astonishment, they swarmed him and covered him in mud.

The Limbo: Border Jail clone tried to shake off the mud, but to no avail; instead, more and more mud accumulated on its body.

Finally, a seal appeared on the mud, Limbo: Border Jail clone was directly sealed.

"Phew~" Yichen breathed a sigh of relief.

Nagato exclaimed in surprise, "Yichen, you can see this clone of mine?"

Yichen shook his head and said, "I can't see it, but my Sensory Ninjutsu can detect it."

Nagato said, "Your Sensory Ninjutsu is too strong."

Yichen nodded and said, "Of all my Ninjutsu, this is the only one that surpasses the current definition of S-rank Ninjutsu."

At this moment, Yichen was thinking: Thank you Obito Uchiha, thank you Shisui Uchiha, thank you Sokai, thank you Izumi Uchiha.

Thank you Uchiha Clan. Without you, my Mind's Mind's Eye wouldn't have reached this level.

The battle has progressed to a certain point. If it continues any longer, Konan and Yahiko will probably become extremely anxious.

Both Yichen and Nagato tacitly chose to back down.

Konan and Yahiko breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and then the two of them quickly ran towards Yichen and Nagato.

Konan spoke first, "Nagato, Yichen, you two were too reckless, you scared me to death just now."

Yichen rolled his eyes and said, "Nagato and I both knew our limits. I didn't use Dust Release, and Nagato didn't use any offensive techniques from the Rinnegan."

"We can control all these Ninjutsu, what are you worried about?"

Konan glared at Yichen.

Yahiko then pointed to the Limbo: Limbo: Border Jail clone Yichen and asked, "Nagato, what's that?"

Yichen cooperated and released the Sealing Jutsu on the Limbo: Border Jail clone and the Three-Headed Hellhound.

Nagato controlled the Limbo: Border Jail clone to his side, then retrieved it back into his body, saying, "This is also Rinnegan Dōjutsu, capable of summoning a clone with strength roughly equivalent to my original body."

"Currently, I can only summon one. These clones are invisible to ordinary people, but I didn't expect Yichen's Sensory Ninjutsu to be able to detect them."

Yahiko exclaimed, "Yichen, I didn't expect you to be so powerful, actually suppressing Nagato."

Yichen said, "Nagato has been letting me have my way from beginning to end. He has always given me the initiative and let me control the pace."

"Furthermore, I am very familiar with Nagato's abilities, while I have learned many new Ninjutsu over the years that Nagato is unaware of, which is why I had the advantage."

Konan said, "Alright, it's getting late, and you two have both worked up a good pace. Let's go back to the village and rest."

Yichen and the other two nodded.

Upon arriving at his lodgings in Kawanin Village, Yichen found Hayakawa, Senga, and Sasagawa Ayumi chatting about their daytime battle with the Kawanin genin.

Yichen didn't care about such trivial matters, but instead asked, "Where is your Kanako? I haven't seen her."

Sasagawa Ayumi said, "After Kanako- senpai talked about Paper Style Jutsu with Konan- senpai, she locked herself in her room."

Yichen nodded, guessing that Konan had taught Kanako something again, and she needed to digest it properly on her own.

Yichen said, "You three should get some rest. I need to go back to the village now, and I should be back by tomorrow morning."

"Yes," the three replied, without asking what Yichen was doing back in the village.

Yichen returned to Iwagakure using the Light-Weight Rock Technique and summoned the village's leaders that very night.

"I'm sorry to have called everyone over so late at night, but there are some things I want to show you."

As he spoke, Yichen took out the Ninjutsu Scroll he had obtained from Obito Uchiha.

"Obito Uchiha moved to our Land of Earth this time, and this is the rent I extorted from him—I mean, I mean, I received."

"He will receive something every month from now on, until he moves out of the Land of Earth."

"These are all Madara Uchiha's training insights, everyone take a look."

Ikura was closest to Yichen, and he read out the names of these insights one by one, "Fire Release, Water Release, Earth Release, Wind Release, Raikage's, Yang Release, and another Fire Release. And this one? Wood Release?"

Yichen said, "I still need to return to River Ninja Village. To make a long story short Madara Uchiha's Ninjutsu experience extremely rare."

"The Fire Style Jutsu Scroll last time helped me a lot. We need to make use of these things and find ways to improve the overall strength of the village."

"This Joint Chunin Exams organized by Akatsuki Organization is unlikely to be peaceful; we need to prepare early."

Ōnoki said, "You only brought four disciples this time. Now that you're back, don't forget to bring an intelligence ninja with you."

Yichen nodded and said, "Understood."

"Everyone, take turns copying these Ninjutsu experience. I need to study them carefully in the Land of Rivers."

Then the group quickly copied all the scrolls together.

Yichen picked up the original and put it into his Ninja Tool Pouch.

Ōnoki said, "We'll arrange who gets to watch the Ninjutsu experience. Aren't you in a hurry? Is there anything else?"

Yichen said, "That's all. That's all for this matter. I'll leave it to you. I'll be going now."

After processing Madara Uchiha's Ninjutsu experience, Yichen left Iwagakure with two intelligence ninjas from the Anbu.

The next morning, when they Sokai up, they found that Yichen had already returned.

Yichen is studying Madara Uchiha's Ninjutsu experience.

Unlike when he first received it and only glanced at it briefly, this time Yichen examined it very carefully, trying to understand the contents of the notes word by word.

Madara Uchiha was definitely at the Super Kage-level, just like Nagato. Moreover, having fought his way through the chaotic Warring States period, he had a wealth of combat experience.

Based on these insights, Madara Uchiha did not initially possess Five-Attribute, but after awakening the Rinnegan, he was certainly able to use Ninjutsu of all attributes.

Even though Fire Release weren't his specialty, these insights were still insightful and extremely useful to Yichen.

After carefully reviewing these Ninjutsu experience, Yichen felt that there was still a lot of room for improvement in his Five-Attribute Ninjutsu.

"Well, that's perfect. With Nagato as a free trainer, and since there's still almost a month until the Joint Chunin Exams, I can use this time to improve Nagato Five-Attribute Ninjutsu."

From that day on, Yichen pestered Nagato and the other two to practice the Five-Attribute Ninjutsu every Tenten.

Most of the time he sparred with Nagato, and a few times with Yahiko or Konan.

The three of them practiced fighting against the ninjas of River Ninja Village Sokai Tenten.

They are currently fighting against the Chunin River Ninja Village.

Even Chiga, who wasn't known for his fighting prowess, felt no pressure facing the Genin from River Ninja Village.

Fugaku Uchiha's Shinya reached Yichen, in his spare time, was also Sokai according to Fugaku Uchiha's methods.

This method is quite good; the ability to Sokai is finally starting to improve rapidly.

His strength, if not changing every day, at least every few days, he could feel a significant improvement in his abilities.

Kanako, was practicing some Paper Style Jutsu techniques that Konan had taught her.

Yichen couldn't say for sure how much progress his four disciples had made, but Yichen could sense that his own Five-Attribute Ninjutsu had improved significantly.

Now, Yichen can easily force Nagato to use advanced Rinnegan Dojutsu using the Five-Attribute Ninjutsu!
