Watching Nagato floating in the sky, the Konoha Ninjas were all a bit bewildered.
In their view, even if the opponent wanted to attack from above, this altitude was somewhat absurd.
Only Jiraiya was full of anxiety, shouting loudly: "Nagato, what are you trying to do?!"
Compared to the others, he clearly knew that Nagato possessed the Rinnegan.
These were the eyes once possessed by the Six Paths Sage!
The power of these eyes was definitely not something ordinary people could understand.
But Nagato seemed not to hear, and terrifying Chakra began to continuously leak from his body.
Jiraiya's expression changed, and he bit his finger, slapping the ground: "Summoning Technique!"
A large number of paper sheets condensed on Konan's back into massive wings like an angel's.
The wings flapped gently, pulling Kakuzu along as they rose high into the sky.
The wind in the air seemed to have been hit with a pause button; a profound silence fell over heaven and earth.
In the next second, a powerful repulsive force centered on Nagato and rapidly spread to the surroundings.
Boom!
Under the influence of this powerful force, the bustling Tanbukai Street turned to ashes in an instant.
The Konoha Ninjas stationed in Tanbukai Street were like willow catkins drifting in the wind, with no way to avoid it.
They were either slammed into hard walls or directly buried by collapsing rubble.
For a time, the entire Tanbukai Street was like a living hell, with wails of agony rising and falling one after another.
"This kind of power..."
Standing on top of Gamabunta's head, Jiraiya looked at the ruins in front of him in disbelief, his heart going cold.
In just an instant, Tanbukai Street was destroyed.
Of the more than three thousand Konoha Ninjas stationed here, looking around, there were only fewer than a hundred people wailing in the ruins.
Gamabunta took a puff of smoke and murmured: "Jiraiya, it seems the enemy we've encountered this time is a bit troublesome."
Jiraiya did not answer, but his eyes were fixed on the gradually descending Nagato.
He scolded in a deep voice: "Nagato, is this the result you wanted?"
"Look at these people you killed in the ruins; every one of them represented a happy and beautiful family!"
"You bring destruction and damage to people, can you still have a clear conscience thinking you are on the side of justice?"
Hearing this, Nagato said coldly: "Everyone's position is different, and the justice in their hearts is also different."
"The so-called justice is nothing more than a cloak donned by the victor."
"Jiraiya-sensei, these eyes of mine can see the essence more clearly than you."
After Nagato finished speaking, seeing Jiraiya's serious face, he advised: "Jiraiya-sensei, you once said that I am the child of prophecy who can lead the transformation of the Ninja World."
"I will bring peace to the Ninja World. Perhaps you don't approve of my methods, but at the very least, you shouldn't stand before me as an enemy."
Although Nagato had stopped fantasizing about being the child of prophecy after learning from Uchiha Yuzuru that his Rinnegan was just Uchiha Madara's scheme.
But Jiraiya had taught him for three years after all, so Nagato did not want to face Jiraiya in a life-and-death struggle.
"The child of prophecy can bring transformation to the Ninja World, and can also bring destruction."
"It is I who did not teach you well, so I will personally rectify my own mistake."
After Jiraiya finished speaking, he clapped his hands together.
Seeing Jiraiya's movement, Nagato clapped his hands: "Summoning Technique!"
A huge Hellhound, Chameleon, Yatagarasu, One-Horned Rhino, Hell Crab, Twin-Horned Bull... six massive summoned beasts instantly rushed toward Jiraiya.
"Bunta, I'm counting on you."
Jiraiya retracted his aura and rushed into the ruins, disappearing.
Gamabunta drew his long sword and fought alone against the six summoned beasts summoned by Nagato.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
...Seven huge summoned beasts fought each other, and the ground trembled continuously.
Nagato did not specifically look for Jiraiya's whereabouts, but only ordered the Hellhound and Chameleon to stall Gamabunta, while the remaining summoned beasts continued to crash through the ruins of Tanbukai Street.
Because of this, the Konoha Ninjas who were lucky enough to survive began to suffer casualties again.
In a moment, the ground was full of mangled remains and shredded flesh.
"This is the power of the Rinnegan... it's truly terrifying."
In mid-air, Kakuzu took a shocked deep breath.
He had originally thought that after mastering the Earth Grudge Fear, he was already one of the top figures in the Ninja World.
Now it seemed that his thoughts were truly quite naive.
This power that could easily destroy a town had already surpassed the legendary Tailed Beasts, right?
Hearing his lament, Konan's cold voice sounded: "The power of the Rinnegan is far more than this; you will understand in the future."
While the two were talking, the rubble in a section of the ruins suddenly exploded, and Jiraiya reappeared.
On his shoulders sat two toads, and his entire face had gained many frog-like characteristics.
Without nonsense, Jiraiya jumped forward directly: "Sage Art: Massive Rasengan!"
The huge Rasengan directly knocked away the Hellhound that was biting Gamabunta.
"Summoning Technique: Food Cart Destroyer Technique!"
Gamahiro, carrying twin swords, fell from the sky and directly pinned the Bull under him.
Immediately after, Jiraiya's white hair rapidly lengthened, directly binding and strangling the Chameleon and the Hell Crab.
Bang!
With a burst of white mist, the three summoned beasts were instantly dealt with.
"Bunta, thank you for your hard work."
"I'll take it from here, Immortal Jiraiya of Mount Myōboku!"
Seeing the scarred Gamabunta, Jiraiya took the initiative to release its Summoning Technique.
"Sage Art: Hair Needle Senbon!"
Jiraiya dropped to all fours, and his white hair shot toward Nagato like senbon at high speed.
Nagato clapped his hands: "Summoning Technique: Stone Panda!"
A panda several meters high appeared and blocked Jiraiya's attack.
Jiraiya's hands didn't stop, and he flickered to the side: "Sage Art: Goemon!"
Jiraiya used oil, Immortal Fukasaku used wind, and Shima Sage used fire... the three combined to create a terrifying sea of fire, surging toward Nagato.
"Shinra Tensei!"
Nagato gave a low shout, and the powerful repulsive force instantly blew away the sea of fire.
"Asura Path: Five-Finger Missiles!"
A series of rockets tracked toward Jiraiya.
"This trick again."
Goemon was already an Sage Art with great destructive power, but it didn't pose any threat to Nagato.
Jiraiya's face darkened, and he thought about how to attack next while dodging the rocket attacks.
Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan, was like a turtle; none of his attacks had any effect.
"Little Jiraiya, use Genjutsu."
"Okay."
Jiraiya nodded in a deep voice, and Immortal Fukasaku and Shima Sage opened their mouths and began to sing loudly.
But Nagato did not give them the chance, instead raising his right arm toward Jiraiya.
"Banshō Tenin!"
Jiraiya only felt his internal Chakra stagnate, and his body involuntarily flew toward Nagato's direction.
Bang!
Under the influence of the gravitational force, Jiraiya's body slammed heavily onto the ground.
In the next second, several pitch-black chakra rods were fiercely stabbed into Jiraiya's body, pinning him firmly to the ground.
