Fierce Battle, Part Eight

Uzumaki Hane had anticipated that Deva Path Pain would make a move, but he remained calm and continued to grab at the Naraka Path in front of him with undiminished strength.

At this moment, Naraka Path quickly moved one step to the left, Uzumaki Hane could only grab the other's shoulder.

Naraka Path let out a painful groan as several claw marks appeared on his shoulder, the wounds of which had been burned black.

Uzumaki Hane frowned, intending to press his advantage. With a few strides, he was once again in front of Naraka Path. His right hand continued to use "Hell Hound," fiercely grabbing towards Naraka Path's chest.

Suddenly, Uzumaki Hane noticed a loud whooshing sound coming from behind her.

"What?" Uzumaki Hane forcibly steadied himself, then instantly turned around, his right hand blocking in front of him. Bang! Deva Path Pain had appeared behind him at some point, kicking his right hand hard.

Deva Path coldly stared at Uzumaki Hane, then with a wave of his right hand, an iron rod emerged from his wide sleeve and swiftly thrust towards Uzumaki Hane's chest.

It's important to know that Pain's black rods have a significant impact on Chakra, and even though he could transform into an elemental form, Uzumaki Hane dared not be easily pierced. Seeing the iron rod approaching his chest, he leaned back, narrowly avoiding the attack.

Immediately after, Uzumaki Hane kicked upwards with a powerful kick, aiming swiftly at Deva Path's chin. Bang! Pain blocked the kick with his right hand. Then, Uzumaki Hane kicked Pain's hand with his left foot, catching Pain off guard and causing him to stagger several steps.

Uzumaki Hane rolled over and landed ten meters in front of Pain. Without saying a word, he let out a loud shout, and his right hand rapidly expanded to ten times its original size. He then threw a full-force punch at Deva Path Pain.

Deva Path Pain pursed his lips, watching the enormous Rock Fist approach him without paying any attention.

"Damn it," seeing Deva Path's expression, Uzumaki Hane thought to himself. The next instant, a surge of power slammed into him, and with a boom, Uzumaki Hane was blown away, flying ten meters away like a rag doll. The ground where he had been standing instantly sank into a huge crater.

Deva Path Pain's body blurred into afterimages as he continued his charge towards Uzumaki Hane.

Uzumaki Hane's lips curled up, and his hands rapidly expanded to ten times their original size. He then swung them fiercely at Deva Path, and in an instant, countless Lava Shuriken shot out, densely covering the path in front of Deva Path Pain.

Faced with the overwhelming Lava Shuriken, Deva Path Pain did not slow down. He simply stretched out his right hand, and a surge of power instantly shattered all the Lava Shuriken in front of him. Countless Lava Shuriken were launched towards Uzumaki Hane.

Uzumaki Hane ignored everything and charged straight past the incoming Shuriken. At this moment, he was less than a meter away from Deva Path Pain. A sharp look appeared in Uzumaki Hane's eyes, and his "Canine Red Lotus" right hand quickly transformed into a dog-shaped lava, directly slamming into Deva Path Pain's chest.

With a deafening boom, the lava hound shattered into pieces, completely breaking apart at Deva Path Pain's chest and falling to the ground. Immediately afterward, Deva Path's right hand pressed down on Uzumaki Hane, causing sand and stones to fly and the ground to cave in. Uzumaki Hane felt a surge of immense power slam into him; crack, crack, Uzumaki Hane tried to struggle, but he was uncontrollably sent flying backward, landing on the ground and tumbling several times before finally coming to a stop.

Pain flashed and appeared in front of Uzumaki Hane. His right iron rod viciously stabbed into Uzumaki Hane's back.

Uzumaki Hane rolled on the spot, narrowly avoiding the stab. Almost simultaneously, he swung his right hand, his Magma Arm expanding to ten times its original size, and slammed down on Pain.

With a bang, Pain was caught off guard and was sent flying backward like a rag doll, flying more than twenty meters before crashing heavily to the ground.

Uzumaki Hane's lips curled into a smile, ready to press his advantage. Just then, a summoning symbol appeared in front of him. In an instant, a gigantic three-headed dog appeared on the symbol.

With a roar, the three-headed dog barked angrily at Uzumaki Hane, and then its middle head lunged at him.

"Hmph," Uzumaki Hane snorted coldly, leaping up and stomping on the dog's eye as its head slammed into the ground. The intense heat of the lava instantly burned the eye away.

"Roar!" the three-headed dog howled in agony. But Uzumaki Hane had no intention of letting it off so easily. He landed in mid-air on the middle head. Then, a huge lava javelin appeared in his right hand and, before the dog could react, plunged it into its head, completely piercing it to the hilt.

Roar! At that moment, another summoning symbol appeared on the ground in front of the three-headed dog, followed by a giant rhinoceros appearing on the summoning symbol.

The rhinoceros roared to the sky, pointing its huge, hungry rhinoceros Uzumaki Hane, who was standing on the head of the three-headed dog, and charged directly at Uzumaki Hane in the next instant.

Bang! The enormous rhinoceros horn, gleaming with a cold light, pierced through the three-headed dog, its momentum undiminished, continuing its charge towards the Uzumaki Hane.

Uzumaki Hane leaped from the head of the three-headed dog, then landed on the tip of the rhinoceros horn, before leaping onto the rhinoceros's head. The rhinoceros horn, however, did not stop, piercing through the three-headed dog before finally coming to a halt. The three-headed dog, now split in two, twisted and transformed back into two giant dogs.

The rhinoceros had spotted the Uzumaki Hane on its head, its eyes flashing even more fiercely. It began to leap, trying to shake the Uzumaki Hane off its head. But the Uzumaki Hane remained firmly planted on its head. The rhinoceros became even more frantic, shaking its entire body even more violently.

Then, Uzumaki Hane clasped his hands together and Great Eruption a massive Rock Fist, slamming it directly into the rhinoceros. Boom! In an instant, the rhinoceros shattered like tofu. The Rock Fist continued its momentum, blasting a huge crater into the ground.

Immediately afterward, Uzumaki Hane swung the magma on the ground, and two huge streams of magma shot out, grabbing the two giant dogs and pulling them into the lava pit. Rumble! Uzumaki Hane's entire body had turned into magma, and the magma on the ground surged, gradually filling the lava pit. The giant dogs howled incessantly until they finally fell silent.

Having dealt with the two summoning beasts, Uzumaki Hane glanced at the Animal Path Pain not far ahead, a fierce glint in his eyes, and his body vanished from the spot in an instant. The next moment, he reappeared in front of the Animal Path.

The Animal Path had no time to summon a spirit beast. With a wave of his right hand, a black staff appeared and then thrust it fiercely towards Uzumaki Hane.

Uzumaki Hane sidestepped the black staff, then spun around and kicked the Animal Path with his right foot. With a thud, the Animal Path was sent flying. Uzumaki Hane flashed forward and charged ahead.
