Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

Chapter 1015: Feeling Happy With a Little Mischief

"Bansho Ten'in!"

Deva Path Pain gathered a black glow in his palm, and the terrifying gravitational pull instantly acted on Yondaime Raikage, yanking him forcefully towards Deva Path Pain.

Yondaime Raikage was initially startled, then quickly overjoyed.

As he rapidly approached Deva Path Pain, Yondaime Raikage seized the moment to go all out, "Lightning Release: Lariat!!"

Deva Path Pain Deva Path Pain coldly snorted and flicked his wrist, causing the gravitational pull to shift left, causing Yondaime Raikage to crash headfirst to the side.

'Bastard!'

Yondaime Raikage hastily retracted his attack, adjusting his posture mid-air. Just as he turned halfway, Deva Path Pain appeared behind him, delivering a barrage of relentless punches.

Plak plak plak!

Plak plak plak!

Boom!

With a final kick, Yondaime Raikage was sent crashing into the mountainside. Deva Path Pain gave him no chance to recover, instantly flickering to the mountainside and continuing his relentless barrage, striking Yondaime Raikage's face, neck, and body…

Meanwhile.

The five other Pain, along with Hyōketsu, Kisame, Kakuzu, and Hidan, who had fallen to the ground, were surrounded by numerous Kumogakure's Shinobi.

Without wasting time, the Kumogakure's Shinobi formed a circle and immediately launched their attack.

"Cloud Style: Flame Slash!"

"Cloud Style: Flame Slash!"

"Nintaijutsu: Wind Fist!"

The numerous Kumogakure's Shinobi, wielding various Cloud Style Kenjutsu and Nintaijutsu, surged forward.

"Fire Release: Intelligent Hard Work!"

"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"

"Wind Release: Pressure Damage!"

"Water Release: Water Wall!"

Kakuzu quickly controlled his four masks to release Ninjutsu in all directions to buy time, and urged Kisame, "Hey, have you found Hachibi yet?"

Although he is very strong, it is also impossible for him to handle thousands of Kumogakure's Shinobi at once!

"Found it, on the peak of that mountain!" Kisame pulled out Samehada and pointed to a high peak in the northeast.

"Amplification Summoning Technique!" Animal Path immediately formed hand seals and summoned out the Hellhound that can increase infinitely.

Asura Path also activated its missile barrage, causing intense explosions at the base of each peak. Flames and rubble erupted, forcing the Kumogakure's Shinobi to retreat from the peaks.

Human Path, Preta Path, and Naraka Path, along with Kisame, Hyōketsu, Hidan, and Kakuzu, then charged towards the northeastern peak.

…

"Has it begun?"

Outside Kumogakure, Uchiha Ōmadara, who has transformed his appearance, stood at the top of the tree, watching the rising flames from Kumogakure.

"Next is the time to witness a miracle!" Ōmadara excitedly took out a wooden Poke Ball and threw it forward, "It's you, Pikachu!"

Bang!

As he threw the Poke Ball, Ōmadara also dissolved himself.

The wooden Poke Ball spun in the air for over ten seconds before a black-robed figure suddenly appeared next to it and grabbed it.

Kanpū looked towards the poke ball in his hand with a dark expression, and saw his Flying Thunder God Technique's imprint impressively engraved on it.

'That damned Ōmadara!'

'Do you think it's funny to mess around like this?'

'Did you not graduate from kindergarten?'

Kanpū squeezed with force, and the wooden Poke Ball immediately destroyed into pieces and scattered on the ground.

He glanced at the flames in Kumogakure, but did not rush in to join the chaos. Instead, he created shadow clones and sent them around Kumogakure to sense Nagato's presence.

Kumogakure was built on a towering peak, with chains connecting the surrounding mountain tops, forming a rough estimate of at least a dozen peaks. These peaks were all part of Kumogakure's territory, constantly guarded by Kumogakure's Shinobi, making it unlikely for Nagato to appear on them.

So, the targets of Kanpū's shadow clones were these peaks outside the main ones, making the search range very large!

Fortunately, Kanpū's shadow clones were not to be underestimated.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh…

One by one, green 'flames' began to emanate from Kanpū's shadow clones. Transforming into little green men, the shadow clones turned into green streaks of light, shooting off into the sky.

Kanpū then joyfully entered Kumogakure to watch the show.

…

"Roar!!"

On the mountainside, after being pinned down and beaten by the Deva Path Pain for a full five minutes, Yondaime Raikage's rage meter finally maxed out and exploded! With a roar, the blue lightning on his body surged dramatically, instantly boosting Yondaime Raikage's speed, strength, attack, and defense.

Boom!

Lightning flashed, and Yondaime Raikage punched the completely unprepared Deva Path Pain into the sky.

"Lightning Release: Elbow!!"

Yondaime Raikage roared, leaping into the air, and shattered the Deva Path Pain's heart with a lightning-charged elbow!

"The leader of Akatsuki is nothing special." Yondaime Raikage grinned ferociously.

'Even though you hit me a hundred times, I only need one hit to take you down!'

But then, Yondaime Raikage noticed something was wrong.

'This guy's aura... it hadn't diminished at all!'

'What's going on?'

'Didn't I just shatter his heart?!'

As he thought about it, Yondaime Raikage's hands kept moving. His lightning fists, elbows, and kicks continuously assaulted the Deva Path Pain, pounding him like a sandbag into an unrecognizable state.

But even so…

"Shinra Tensei!"

Bang!!

A violent repulsive force emanated from the Deva Path Pain's mangled right palm, instantly sending Yondaime Raikage flying a thousand meters away.

However, before the Deva Path Pain could catch his breath, he saw a flash of blue lightning as Yondaime Raikage once again shot towards him with teleportation-like speed from a thousand meters away!

"Bansho Ten'in!" Having experienced Yondaime Raikage's speed, Deva Path Pain didn't dare to be careless. He quickly extended his hand and threw Yondaime Raikage down the mountainside.

Then, he floated up, drifting towards the Raikage's Office.

The only one in Kumogakure who could stop the Akatsuki was Yondaime Raikage. Deva Path Pain only needed to keep him occupied, and Hachibi would inevitably fall into Akatsuki's hands!

"Pain, get down here!!" Yondaime Raikage roared, lightning crackling as he once again shot into the sky.

Deva Path Pain floated left and right, looking as if he was barely holding on and Yondaime Raikage just needed a bit more effort to catch him.

On the other side.

At the base of the mountain where Konoha Hachiro stood, the five paths of Pain, along with Hyōketsu and the others, had already arrived. Behind them lay a field of corpses, with rivers of blood flowing. At least, five hundred Kumogakure's Shinobi had died!

But even so, the fearless Kumogakure's Shinobi continued to charge forward relentlessly.

"Such a nuisance." Animal Path said coldly with a snort.

Controlling the Six Paths of Pain, especially while the Deva Path Pain was fighting Yondaime Raikage, was a tremendous drain on Nagato's mental will, Chakra, and even life force. If the Kumogakure's Shinobi maintained this relentless assault, they might actually wear Nagato down.

"Hyōketsu, Kakuzu, Hidan, stay here with the other Pains to hold off the Kumogakure's Shinobi." Animal Path immediately ordered. Then, it summoned the chameleon and leaped into its mouth.

The chameleon swiftly darted towards the peak, and after a few steps, its figure disappeared completely in everyone's sight.
