Minato touched his hair, realizing that Shinjō was referring to Minato Namikaze of this world.
Despite possessing the Flying Thunder God, he was always a step too late, causing the deaths of his disciples and his wife.
He didn't argue, but silently vowed never to let his Kushina suffer the same fate as Kushina Uzumaki of the world.
Shinjō punched the oncoming three-headed giant dog, sending it flying. The three-headed dog crashed onto the sea, its middle head having been punched into a huge crater by the power of the Xingchen. It shook its other heads, and two summoning Ninja Dog actually split off.
Could it really split up? Shinjō vaguely remembered this plot point.
"It's time Jiraiya, the White-Haired Toad Sage Mount Myōboku, to perform!" Jiraiya bit his finger and slapped it on the water's surface, summoning a large red Toad that appeared at his feet.
The big red toad has a somewhat honest face. It holds a steel fork with particles in one hand and a large yellow bowl as a shield in the other.
Its eyes looked upwards, Jiraiya, "I'm rather useless, but I'll try my best."
Jiraiya clasped his hands together and said to the crowd, "I'm going to use Sage Mode. Please help me buy some time."
Shinjō also clasped his hands together in prayer.
Sage Art: Storm Release: Heavenly Net!
He could now perform this Ninjutsu without Hand Seals. As the purple-white smoke dissipated from his hand, countless sensations entered Shinjō's mind.
He turned to Minato and said, "Take them out of the battlefield!"
Jiraiya quickly shook his head. "How could I, the Toad Sage Jiraiya, desert?"
Tsunade punched the large bird that was flying towards her, then turned to Minato and said, "Take Sakura, Naruto, and those Kirigakure ninjas out of here."
Naruto shouted urgently, "I don't want to run away! I want to stay and fight!"
Tsunade glared at him and said, "Their target is the Tailed Beast, and you're one of them. Don't stay and cause trouble."
Naruto gritted his teeth and said, enunciating each word clearly, "I will never be a deserter!"
Minato flung out several Kunai, appeared beside Sakura, placed his hand on Sakura's shoulder, and the two instantly disappeared into the sea.
The next instant, Minato appeared beside Chōjūrō, placing his hand on Chojuro's shoulder and leading him away from the battlefield.
Qing felt a hand grab his arm, and he quickly said, "Wait, I need to stay."
He pointed to his eyes. "I can help find the original body."
Mei Terumi had just melted a summoning beast using Lava Release. She turned to Ao and asked, "Did you find its true form?"
Qing looked embarrassed. "I haven't found it yet, it's not on that ship."
Sasuke extended two fingers, and a blue Chakra sword extended from them, which he swung down at the blue-haired woman in front of him.
Konan flapped her wings to block the Chakra sword, Chakra sliced off Konan left wing as easily as cutting tofu.
Half of her wing landed, turning into countless pieces of paper that fluttered up and then gathered again on Konan's wing.
Sasuke opened his Mangekyō Sharingan, rushed forward, and swung his Chakra sword.
Konan dared not take the blow head-on and sidestepped the longsword.
With a loud "whoosh," the Chakra sword pierced the steel deck of the large ship, leaving a long gash.
Countless sheets of paper transformed into Shuriken, raining down on Sasuke. Sasuke leaped repeatedly, his hands Hand Seals.
Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation Arrow!
A massive sea of fire rose from the deck, and a figure flapped her wings and soared into the sky, only to be met by a blue Chakra sword.
Konan dodged to the side, and when she looked up, she saw a pair of red six-pointed star Mangekyō. A wave of dizziness washed over her, and Konan lowered her head.
A series of crackling thunderclaps rang out, and Kakashi's right hand, crackling with lightning, plunged into Konan's chest.
Was it successful?
Sasuke landed, looking at the blue-clad woman before him, somewhat dazed. He, with his Mangekyō, had just been nearly killed by her Explosive Tag.
Suddenly, sheets of white paper began to peel away from the woman's skin, multiplying until they transformed into paper butterflies that began to flutter about.
The paper butterflies regrouped and transformed back into a blue-haired woman.
What kind of Ninjutsu is this?
Kakashi said to the little Katsuyu on his shoulder, "Please tell Lady Tsunade that Pain's true form was not found in the cabin."
The little Katsuyu on Tsunade's shoulder said to Tsunade, " Lady Tsunade, Kakashi and Sasuke haven't found Pain's true form."
"No?" Shinjō asked, somewhat puzzled. He knew Nagato must be nearby; it was impossible for him to be too far away from controlling these Six Paths puppets. He looked at the blue veins on the face of the blue puppet beside him, which was definitely beyond the observation range of the Byakugan in front of him.
Shinjō shouted at Minato, " Minato, take Ao out of the battlefield and bring Hinata here!"
Minato touched his hair, somewhat embarrassed, and said, " Shinjō, I've run out of Senjutsu Chakra."
Shinjō formed a hand Hand Seals with one hand and Flying Thunder God to reach Minato's side. He placed his hand on Minato's shoulder and continuously channeled Senjutsu Chakra into Minato's body.
Minato Namikaze snorted coldly, his face contorting for a moment before he revealed a gentle smile.
Aside from the Chakra of Tailed Beast, ordinary people's Chakra cannot be used interchangeably. Moreover, this is Senjutsu Chakra refined by Shinjō, so it will naturally harm others.
However, he couldn't worry about those details now. With Tsunade around, even the most serious injuries could be saved.
A sea breeze blew by, and a few strands of golden hair fell onto Minato's forehead.
Minato grabbed his head, revealing even more hair between his fingers.
"It's alright, it'll grow back in a few days," Shinjō comforted her.
Seeing the worry on Minato's face, Shinjō continued, "You are a hero on the battlefield; Kushina will like you even more."
"Hmm!" Minato nodded, a bright smile spreading across his face, and then Hand Seals and disappeared into the sea.
Pain hasn't really made a move yet; his summoned beasts and missiles seem to be just playing a game with everyone.
Is this a divine way of thinking?
Shinjō didn't know how to evaluate this arrogant mentality.
However, since he claims to be a god, ordinary people cannot possibly understand his thoughts.
"Haha, Toad Sage, Jiraiya is here!" Gamaken carried Jiraiya he ran over from a distance, with two old frogs perched on his shoulders. They were the two Toad Sage, Fukasaku and Shima, whom Shinjō had seen in the Konoha office earlier.
Jiraiya's face developed a strange sage-like appearance; his nose became larger, and tiny bumps densely covered the area around it.
The purple-haired Sage Shima said to the Sage Fukasaku beside her, "Old man, that's the legendary Rinnegan! What terrifying eyes!"
Sage Fukasaku nodded. "But don't be afraid, old woman, we have three immortals here, and Shinjō is here too."
Sage Shima, looked at the Shinjō radiating white light on the other side and nodded. "With the three of us sages here, there's nothing to be too afraid of."
Jiraiya looked at the crowd and counted them, then said with dissatisfaction, " Sage Fukasaku, Sage Shima, there are clearly four sages on the field!"
Sage Fukasaku sighed, " Jiraiya, it's time you learned to transform into Sage Mode on your own."
Pain stepped forward and looked at Jiraiya: " Jiraiya-sensei, have you finally used Sage Mode?"
Jiraiya gave an awkward laugh, "I'm so sorry!"
Pain slowly rose into the air, looking down at the crowd below:
"Only gods are the strongest! There will be no more immortals!"
