"Summoning Technique."
After a female Pain completed the hand seals, five Pain appeared, each searching for something in a different direction.
"Enemy attack."
Pain faced a fierce counterattack from the Konoha Ninja within the Konoha. However, all of this was to no avail. Nothing could stop Pain's advance, Pain one Konoha ninja after another fell in his path.
"Run!"
"Someone, please save me!"
Accompanied by the screams of an explosion, cries for help echoed throughout Konoha. This was a disaster for Konoha. Pain's enormous summoning beast rampaged through the Konoha, destroying buildings and trampling ninjas.
"Damn it, the Expansion Jutsu."
The older generation of Ino-Shika-Cho stepped forward. Choza Akimichi blocked the giant centipede.
"The Mind Disturbance Jutsu"
Inoichi Yamanaka used Ninjutsu to try and control the centipede's mind, but the centipede's mind remained a blank. Choza Akimichi was pushed back repeatedly by the centipede.
"Choza, all my Ninjutsu is useless against it."
Inoichi Yamanaka shouted loudly.
"Is that so? Then please step back a little."
After finishing speaking, Choza Akimichi grabbed the nail on the centipede's head with both hands.
"Ah."
With a shout, he gathered his strength and flipped the Choza Akimichi over, slamming it heavily onto the ground.
"Boom."
Choza Akimichi pinned the centipede down, rendering it unable to move.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake, and a rhinoceros charged straight at Choza Akimichi.
"Father, be careful. The Expansion Jutsu."
With a roar, Choji Akimichi rammed into the rhinoceros's waist, sending it flying.
"Boom."
After crashing into a house, the rhinoceros stood up, completely unharmed. It kept breathing on Choji Akimichi.
At this moment, the two generations of Ino -Ino-Shika-Cho joined forces to fight off the enemy.
"What's going on?"
Jiraiya, who was recuperating in the hospital, suddenly heard an explosion and villagers screaming for help from the village. The battle-hardened Jiraiya immediately realized that someone had attacked Konoha. Jiraiya go to the Hokage's office immediately to find Tsunade.
After getting dressed and walking out the gate, I found the hospital in chaos, with countless injured ninjas and villagers being rushed in.
Just as Jiraiya stepped out of the hospital, he bumped into Pain. Pain had come to ask if anyone knew Naruto Uzumaki's whereabouts, seeing so many people at the hospital, but he never expected to encounter such a big fish here.
"Nagato, is this the peace you sought? So many innocent people have died because of you."
Jiraiya angrily questioned him. When Nagato wanted to take his life, Jiraiya could take it as a difference in ideals. But now, in Jiraiya's eyes, Nagato was an absolute madman.
"Jiraiya- sensei, this sacrifice is for a better future. As long as Konoha hands over Naruto Uzumaki, I'll turn around and leave."
Pain said to Jiraiya.
What if I say no?
"Then Konoha should cease to exist."
Pain's words were devoid of any emotion, as if he were a high and mighty god, devoid of any compassion for humanity.
"Hahaha, it's all my fault. If I hadn't brought you into this world of ninjas in the first place..."
"Then perhaps you can live an ordinary life."
Jiraiya finished speaking, he looked up at the sky and wept.
"Then you can only get past me by killing me."
Jiraiya said, dragging his heavily injured body.
"Okay, let's continue with what we didn't finish a few days ago."
A Chakra rod appeared in Pain's hand and rushed towards Jiraiya at high speed.
Chakra rod forward, but blocked it with Jiraiya hospital gown. Jiraiya and pulled hard, knocking the Chakra rod from Pain's hand. However, Pain didn't retreat but instead attacked with punches and kicks. The two fought evenly. But Jiraiya gradually fell into a disadvantageous position. In a moment of carelessness, Pain kicked him away. He barely managed to regain his footing, but his wounds reopened, and blood flowed uncontrollably.
"Puff."
Jiraiya coughed up blood. He had been fighting Pain with Pain, and now, after being kicked, he couldn't suppress his injuries.
"Why bother, Jiraiya- sensei?"
Pain said calmly, "Knowing there's no point in making a decision, why make such a foolish one?"
"You wouldn't understand. If Naruto's ninja way is about keeping his word, then my ninja way as his teacher is about protecting him. Unless I die, you won't get any information about Naruto here."
Jiraiya struggled to straighten his body.
"We're the same. You won't get any information about Naruto here. We won't betray our comrades."
At this moment, the ninjas inside the hospital came out. They saw that Jiraiya was unable to withstand Pain's attacks and wanted to come and help.
"Since that's the case, then you can all die."
Pain began to move. These ninjas in the hospital were no match for him.
Ah.
"Don't even think about it."
All that could be heard were the screams of Konoha ninjas.
"You devil!"
The surviving ninjas spoke to Pain. Their comrades, who had just been laughing and chatting, had turned into cold, lifeless corpses in the blink of an eye. This group of ninjas, who had never been on the battlefield, had never witnessed the horrors of life and death.
"Then you should go down and keep them company!"
Just as Pain was about to clear out the minions, Kakashi appeared and blocked the deadly Chakra rod.
"Isn't it incredibly disrespectful to act so arrogantly in someone else's village?"
Kakashi blocked Pain's Chakra rod with a kunai and said.
"You've all left. I'll handle this."
Kakashi gave the order.
"Yes, yes, Hatake Jonin."
The Konoha ninjas retreated in disarray. In an instant, only the heavily injured Jiraiya, Kakashi, and Pain remained on the field.
"Lord Jiraiya, why don't you leave too?"
Looking at Jiraiya's numerous open wounds, Kakashi offered his advice.
"Alright, I'll leave this to you."
Jiraiya agreed. He knew his own situation and that staying there would only cause trouble.
Now it's just the two of us left.
Having said that, Karot launched an attack instantly. The kunai, imbued with Lightning Release Chakra, emitted a piercing crackling sound.
"Sizzle, sizzle."
Stimulated by the lightning team, Kakashi's speed increased once again. Pain remained motionless, waiting for Kakashi's attack. Instead, Pain grabbed Karot's kunai with Pain bare hand.
It's done.
Kakashi's smile vanished in astonishment. The Chakra on the kunai had been absorbed, leaving only the kunai firmly held in Pain's hand.
Pain reached out and grabbed, Kakashi released his kunai and jumped backward.
