Nagato's increasingly blurred consciousness froze.

Why?

All the Konoha ninjas were equally stunned.

Sage of Six Paths really that weak?

Did Lord Fugaku make a mistake?

But then came overwhelming joy. He had thought the guy was a genius, but it turned out to be a nobody!

After a brief pause, the group moved even faster, and this attack completely crushed the enemy!

Almost seamlessly, the second wave of attacks has arrived.

Instead of using basic attacks, everyone used their skills after being reminded by Fugaku.

Given Nagato's strength, he shouldn't have been defeated so easily.

Nagato, who considers himself a god, relies too much on the power of the Rinnegan.

As I said before, weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival; arrogance is.

If Nagato had been even slightly more careful, he wouldn't have chosen to take that basic attack head-on, something any elite Jonin could easily dodge.

Fortunately, Nagato's cheat codes were not as simple as they seemed.

Born from Madara's body, the world's second pair of Rinnegan has attracted more attention than Nagato had imagined.

It includes Obito, Madara, Black Zetsu, and also Ren, as well as the Sage of Six Paths, who resides in an unknown place and overlooks all living beings in the Shinobi World.

All of the aforementioned individuals wanted to use these Rinnegan to accomplish certain schemes, so the Rinnegan could not be lost.

Obito is still leveling up, Madara is sleeping in the Pure Land, Black Zetsu is powerless, and Ren is giving a speech ten thousand years in the future.

Therefore, Fugaku's words came true; the Sage of Six Paths truly descended!

Unlike the Hidden Sand Village researcher's experience, Nagato was a descendant of the Sage of Six Paths, and the Rinnegan in his eye sockets was inherited from him. At this moment, he had also absorbed the Chakra of the Three-Tails and the Four-Tails.

The Sage of Six Paths barely needed to expend his own power to descend this time.

While there are advantages, the disadvantages are also obvious: the Sage of Six Paths cannot exert his full strength, and his upper limit is the same as Nagato's upper limit.

Nagato lost consciousness, and his body was taken over by the Sage of Six Paths.

The account remained the same, but the player went from a bronze-level newbie to a top-tier player.

Faced with an attack that was almost within arm's reach, a flash of purple light appeared in Nagato's Rinnegan eye sockets.

All attacks were blocked by an invisible force field.

"Nagato, what's wrong with you!"

In Amegakure, Konan's exclamation rang out as Deva Path Pain, who had just been standing in front of her, collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud.

[Shinra Tensei: The Sage of Six Paths Edition!]

All attacks returned via the same route.

The Uchiha Clan ninja who unleashed the Dragon Flame Technique was engulfed by flames, leaving not even ashes.

The Shadow Sewing completely reversed, leaving the Nara Clan ninja riddled with holes.

The Akimichi Clan members who unleashed the Butterfly Bullet Bombardment suffered broken bones throughout their bodies due to the doubled force of Shinra Tensei.

Tongren Hyuga unleashed the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm, was struck in the chest by the returning palm strike, coughing up blood incessantly.

As for how Tong Ren, as a member of the branch family, learned Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm, we can only say that we are grateful for the hard work of Elder Dan. Most of Konoha's secrets are not secrets in front of Root.

The only one who wasn't harmed by the backlash was probably the Aburame Clan tribeswoman who threw out the Insect Sphere. After the Kikaichū was returned, it bit through her body again and burrowed inside.

Despite being hit by Shinra Tensei, not a single Kikaichū survived.

This alone demonstrates the Sage of Six Paths' mastery of micro-management.

Do you think Shinra Tensei can only unleash repulsive force all at once, and that all beings are equal?

The Sage of Six Paths truly demonstrated his unparalleled mastery of the Rinnegan.

The same skill, in Nagato's hands it becomes a mushroom bomb, while in the hands of the Sage of Six Paths it becomes a cluster bomb with precise infrared sensing and satellite guidance.

The situation reversed in an instant, and Konoha suffered casualties within moments.

Fortunately, someone reacted quickly. The Nara Clan ninja, whose body was broken and on the verge of death, shouted with his last strength.

"Lord Fugaku, retreat immediately! Go find Jonin Kakashi! The Sealing Squad, prepare the barrier!"

"Shikama!"

Fugaku's grief-stricken voice rang out, but unfortunately, the Nara Clan ninja quickly tilted his head to the side after speaking, and could no longer hear Fugaku's shouts.

"Do as Shikama says!"

After saying this, Fugaku ran off without hesitation, and the others immediately followed.

However, several ninjas, instead of retreating, advanced and approached Nagato's location.

There were eight ninjas in total, in pairs, each holding a silver-white iron box tightly in their four hands.

Then a square barrier filled with crimson light rose up.

[Four Red Yang Formation!]

The light emanating from it was as dazzling as the Will of Fire.

During that brief moment, the Sage of Six Paths manipulated the Tailed Beast Chakra within Nagato's body, gaining access to its chakra.

Not only did it save Nagato's life when he was on the Nagato of death, but it also allowed him to recover from his injuries rapidly, much like Jinchūriki.

With a flash of purple light in his eyes, the Sage of Six Paths had already seen through the true nature of the barrier.

They originally intended to take the opportunity to kill all the thieves they had missed last time, but Nagato's injuries were too severe.

If Nagato dies, the Sage of Six Paths will have no choice but to leave.

It's not that the Sage of Six Paths couldn't revive Nagato, it's just that it would consume the Sage of Six Paths' own power.

This is not the time period depicted in the original story; the Sage of Six Paths has not yet fully implemented his plan.

Compared to a thousand-year-long scheme, Nagato's life or death, and the existence of the Rinnegan, seem less important.

Nagato's body was recovering rapidly, but his Chakra was also being depleted quickly.

Silently sensing his remaining power, the Sage of Six Paths knew that it was impossible to kill all the thieves.

But before that, kill as many as you can.

With his Rinnegan activated, the Sage of Six Paths focused 99% of the remaining Chakra 'Nagato body into his arm.

[Asura Attack - Sage of Six Paths Edition!]

A deep blue laser beam collided with the crimson barrier.

While the barrier was shaking violently, the eight people maintaining it suffered even more, as their vital energy was almost instantly drained.

How could that be?

These were the thoughts in the minds of the eight people. The barrier had lost its power and could no longer be maintained. While they were still wondering why the Four Red Yang Formation could be so easily broken, their consciousness was plunged into darkness.

Eight pebbles struck their heads precisely, followed by a burst of repulsive force.

Their heads exploded like watermelons, blood and brain matter scattered everywhere, a bloody yet poignant scene, like eight blooming flowers.
