The Deva Path Joins the Battle
The Great Fireball slammed into the hellhound instantly.
"What!? There are others too?" Nagato's mood was at its lowest point; he had never imagined that the Shinobi Village would be so powerful.
"Who is it?" The Animal Path and the Human Path jumped back and landed right on the giant eagle, Summoning Beast in the air. The two looked at each other back to back.
"Are the lines of sight connected?" asked a one-eyed man with white hair, wearing Uchiha Clan cloak.
"You are... the old clan chief?" Shisui was also taken aback.
"Yes! The previous head of the Uchiha clan! Uchiha Masamune reports!" Masamune was dressed in armor and a cloak, looking just like a majestic Great General.
Although Masamune only has one Sharingan, his strength is firmly ranked as a Great Ninja by Shiyu.
"Awooo!!" Although the hellhound was burned by the Great Fireball, it was instantly split into two.
"I see. I've heard of you two. One is Uchiha Shisui, and the other is Uchiha Masamune. You were once a powerful and prestigious family in Konoha? Now you've betrayed Konoha and become henchmen of the Shinobi Village?" Human Path Pain suddenly launched into a verbal attack.
"Thugs? You overestimate us. We're just ordinary people who take up hoes to protect our crops, while Shiyu is the one who gave us a dreamlike pastoral life."
Masamune uttered something quite profound, while Pain responded with strong disapproval, "A dreamlike countryside? Ridiculous! The Land of Rice is also a small country. Wars always benefit large countries and harm small ones. If it weren't for Shiyu's absolute power, you wouldn't have that false prosperity you have now."
"You can't feel real pain, you don't know the value of peace? You're willing to sacrifice everything just for a dream?" Pain said.
"That was just a metaphor. What I'm talking about is no longer a dream. Shiyu led us, who were originally destined for destruction, towards prosperity. Whether it's the Shinobi Village or the Konoha, they both exist to protect."
"These are all Shiyu taught us, Nagato Uzumaki. Your eyes are blinded by pain and hatred. Even with the Rinnegan, can't you see the true future?"
"Are you going to continue being so stubborn?" Masamune, directly calling out Nagato's name.
"Impossible, they even forgot my name!"
Nagato was stunned, while Masamune had already drawn his Kageshide and said, "Kagehiro."
"This sword hasn't been drawn in a long time." Masamune drew Kageshide directly, the red blade Kageshide an extremely long shadow in the sunlight.
"Lord Masamune! Let's go together!" Shisui nodded to Masamune.
"Anza!" Masamune sensed something was wrong and unleashed a slash, the fiery sword energy instantly cleaving a distant monster shadow in two.
"Ha! The monster let out a miserable scream. After regaining its invisibility, it immediately turned into white smoke and disappeared from the spot with a bang."
"Chameleon?" Shisui also jumped directly into the air.
"We've been discovered." Pain had originally planned to distract the two and use the chameleon to ambush them, but Masamune discovered him.
"Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Claw Crimson!" Shisui immediately threw out a large number of shuriken combined with Fire Style techniques towards Pain.
"This level of technique won't harm us at all," Pain said dismissively.
"Huh?" Shisui then quickly Hand Seals hand seals and said, "Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Instantly, the Fire Style shuriken transformed into countless blades, which then rushed towards the two of them.
"What!?" Nagato was taken aback.
The Animal Path grabbed the Human Path, decisively abandoned standing on the giant eagle, and immediately jumped off its body.
The hellhounds rushed forward, trying to get the two of them to land on them.
"Hmph! You actually ran away while fighting me? Shadow Iaijutsu!" Masamune drew his Kageshide Hide and slashed at the Masamune with a whoosh, sending it flying.
"Nowhere to land. Summoning Technique!" The Animal Path summoned a giant crab once more.
"Drink!" Shisui continued to control the shuriken and attack the two, but the Human Path and Animal Path immediately used the giant crab as a shield.
"Shokutōgiri Mitsutada!" Masamune had somehow leaped up, his Kageshide transforming into a Nodachi, which he then slammed down heavily on the two Pain.
The Human Path and the Asura Path once again avoided each other.
Although Masamune's attack was somewhat clumsy, the moment it hit the ground, the giant crab was instantly engulfed in flames. Soon, with a "pop!", the giant crab turned into white smoke and disappeared.
"Awooo!" The hellhound was attacked but was not injured; instead, it split off even more heads.
"I'll leave this to the Animal Path. We must find the Six-Tails as soon as possible," Nagato muttered to himself. He then tried to control the Human Path to escape, but of course, he was also blocked.
"It's not that easy." Shisui had already stepped in front of the Human Path and thrown Kunai.
"Summoning Technique!" The Animal Path used the Summoning Technique again, but this time it wasn't Summoning Beast.
Instead, it was the last of the Six Paths of Pain, the Deva Path.
"Another Pain? Great, it seems we've already held off three Pain with just two of us," Masamune said.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of you all soon," Deva Path Pain said calmly.
"The Banshō Ten'in!" Heavenly Dao declared.
Then, Shisui's body flew uncontrollably toward the Heavenly Dao.
"Is this the guy who controls gravity and repulsion?" Shisui looked at the sharp Chakra Rod Pain had already taken out.
"Susanoo!" Although Shisui's body was sucked in, at the same time his eyes turned into Mangekyo, and his entire body instantly burst into green armor.
Shisui immediately thrust the Spiral Sword in his hand towards the Heavenly Path.
"What?!" The Shinobi Village had already shocked Nagato countless times, and this time Shisui once again made Nagato realize the strength of the Shinobi Village's ninjas.
If the Heavenly Dao continued to use the Banshō Ten'in, it would only suffer losses itself. The Heavenly Dao had no choice but to stop the Banshō Ten'in.
However, taking this opportunity, the Human Path has already fled.
"I'll deal with the Animal Path, and you can have the Heavenly Path?" Masamune knew he couldn't stop Pain anytime soon, so he decided to take care of the two in front of him first.
"Alright." Shisui nodded and said, "Only my Mangekyo Susanoo deal with the Rinnegan."
"Whoosh!" Tiandao didn't intend to waste any time and quickly ran towards Shisui.
Shisui, while maintaining his Susanoo form, launched countless green Susanoo shuriken directly at Devado.
"Shinra Tensei!" Tendo raised his hands and immediately deflected all the Susanoo shuriken.
"As expected, it possesses both attraction and repulsion; however, it seems there's a certain time interval between them."
After confirming his Shisui, Shisui Hand Seals and used the Shadow Clone Jutsu.
"Pain! Take this!" Shisui also launched an attack on Pain using his Body Flicker Technique and his kodachi.
