Nagato, seeing the complete Susanoo for the first time, was filled with awe. But even then, he still had confidence in himself.
"Okay, you're indeed an Uchiha" he muttered, watching you.
You formed two katana on the two hands of the Susanoo.
Nagato saw the force gathering and understood instantly that a normal Shinra Tensei wouldn't repel it—
So Nagato raised one hand in front of him and used Super Shinra Tensei.
The moment his super almighty push collided with Susanoo's twin blade, Konoha was devastated once again.
But this devastation was completely different from the previous one.
The place where the two attacks met—about 100 meters across—
Was reduced entirely to rubble.
After a few moments of stalemate between the two forces, you were finally pushed back.
Only a few meters, but it still proved Nagato's strength.
You, on the other hand, put away his katana and used the ranged attack of the Susanoo—
Yasaka no Magatama.
Nagato felt the ranged attack of the Susanoo—multiple shuriken-like projectiles flying toward him. He dodged most of them, and the ones he couldn't dodge, he blocked with Shinra Tensei.
But Nagato could feel the burden of the Rinnegan now. His chakra was dropping lower and lower.
He wasn't seeing any way to defeat Akira.
His one of the strongest attack—Super Shinra Tensei, had only managed to neutralize you and the Susanoo's attack.
And then you used your right Mangekyō ability—
Ashihara no Michi, Path of a Thousand Steps.
Five more Akiras suddenly appeared beside him, all of them in Sage Mode.
Nagato felt poor and powerless in front of them.
But Akira said with a smile,
Nagato immediately had a bad feeling.
"Previously it was six of you versus me. Now you can fight six of me versus one of you.
And you can guess whether they all can use Susanoo."
As soon as Akira said this, the other five surrounded Nagato from five sides.
All of them activated their complete Susanoo.
Just like that—six hundred-meter-tall giants stood in Konoha, each one capable of destroying villages with a single blow.
Nagato felt sweat run down his face.
This was the first time he had met someone this powerful.
Although he had been suspicious and unsuspicious of Obito or Madara, that was because Obito's Sharingan ability was strange and Nagato simply couldn't find its weakness.
It wasn't that Obito ever showed overwhelming strength like Akira.
Akira, on the other hand, attacked again.
One Susanoo used twin katana blades.
Another used a spear.
Another used a bow and arrow mixed with Yatagarasu's flame.
Another used a chain-like weapon.
Another fought with just two fists.
All of them attacked simultaneously, and Nagato could feel that the force behind each attack was almost the same.
He knew he couldn't dodge it.
So once again he used Super Shinra Tensei, this time pouring in all his power, risking chakra exhaustion, his life, even burning his life force.
A huge blast erupted in Konoha.
Half the village was destroyed in that single attack.
Everyone was in despair.
Tsunade, seeing gods attacking each other, felt even more despair and anger—
Because she knew that even if she used her entire life as the price,
She wouldn't be able to defeat even one of you.
---
When the smoke and dust finally cleared, you saw Nagato bleeding heavily.
You could sense that his chakra reserve had dropped again, and you knew the next attack would be the end for him.
Just then—right as you prepared to strike again—you sensed a presence.
A disgusting presence.
You turned your gaze toward the outskirts of Konoha.
All six of your forms moved in perfect sync.
There—Danzo, along with a group of Root brutes, was running away from Konoha at full speed.
You could feel the presence of Sharingan in Danzo's arm, and it filled you with even more disgust.
So the six of you raised one hand toward Danzo's direction.
A bow made of Yatagarasu's flame and Susanoo's chakra formed instantly.
You pulled back your other hand as if drawing a real bow.
An arrow of black flame and Susanoo's chakra appeared.
Then you used your left eye ability—
Kūkai no kago : Cage of empty space
Carving a trail of empty space around Danzo.
Space froze.
Time dilated a thousandfold.
You released the arrow.
The attack traveled instantly—less than a second—and a massive explosion erupted.
Moments later, there was no Danzo or Root squad left in that place.
You didn't regret that Danzo died "too easily."
Because inside the frozen space where time was slowed a thousandfold,
One outside second became more than dozen of minutes inside.
And you deliberately used a less-lethal flame—
A more painful flame.
So although Danzo died in three to four seconds from the outside perspective,
Inside he burned for hours, unable to even blink or scream.
Not a single movement was possible.
After Danzo's death, you shifted your gaze back to Nagato—
And were surprised.
Nagato had finally exhausted all of his chakra.
But there was a black sphere in his hand.
You recognized it instantly—Chibaku Tensei ( Planetary Devastation )
Nagato didn't wait for your reaction.
He threw the Chibaku Tensei into the sky immediately.
Seeing the black ball filled with the force of attraction reaching a suitable height in the sky and beginning to pull rocks and rubble toward it, you didn't panic.
You had more than a dozen ways to break out of it.
So you used the most suitable one.
You activated your left Mangekyō ability—
Kukai no Kago —Cage of Empty Space—on the Chibaku Tensei.
And instantly, all the attraction vanished.
Then the six Susanoos unleashed six attacks on the black sphere.
A moment later, a huge explosion followed, and Nagato's Chibaku Tensei was completely destroyed.
You looked toward the Deva Path and found it already destroyed.
But you knew one thing clearly—
To perform Chibaku Tensei from any of the Six Paths bodies, Nagato had to be close to his puppets.
So you canceled Ashihara no Michi—Path of a Thousand Steps—
And even dispelled your own Susanoo.
Then you placed your hand on the ground and used a sensing jutsu.
Instantly, you located Nagato.
And Konan.
They were preparing to leave Konoha right at that moment.
You vanished from your place and appeared in front of both of them.
Nagato didn't react much at your sudden appearance.
Konan, however, instantly became ready to fight to the death.
But you ignored her and spoke to Nagato:
"Well, Nagato… do you want to move out of this chess game?"
Nagato, hearing this, remained calm and replied,
"You do seem to know more than me about all of this. But how can I tell that you aren't also using me as a chess piece?"
You nodded and simply said:
"Well, you don't have to do anything for me. Just use the Rinnegan to revive all the people of Konoha.
Then you'll die, and the Rinnegan will be destroyed.
That would be the perfect revenge from you… to them."
Hearing this, Konan grew anxious.
"Nagato, you can't do that!" she shouted
Nagato ignored her and asked you the question that confused him.
"Earlier you used multiple jutsu, and all of them were massive attacks. If you wanted, you could have killed me using only your Mangekyō abilities. There was no need to use Susanoo… or even six complete Susanoo.
So I'm confused—do you want to destroy them, or do you want to save them?"
You didn't answer for a moment.
You looked up.
And finally said:
"I do want to save Konoha…
but this is not my Konoha."
Nagato heard this and felt as if he understood something.
You didn't understand what he understood.
Nagato simply brought his hands together—
And activated the Rinnegan's life-granting technique:
Outer Path — Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique
As soon as Nagato used the technique, inside Konoha a massive King of Hell puppet materialized and opened its mouth. A vast wave of chakra surged out from within and flowed into the bodies of the dead, gradually reviving them with full health and no injuries.
You didn't pay much attention to the scene.
What you noticed instead was the rapid decrease of Nagato's life force, and the collapse of his chakra—
The same chakra forcefully extracted from his own cells.
Nagato would die in just a few moments.
You said to him quietly,
"Well, Nagato… you can destroy the Rinnegan yourself."
Nagato looked at you, then at the eyes he had carried for so long.
He exhaled and said softly,
"Take care of Konan."
A black chakra rod appeared in his hand, and he stabbed it toward his Rinnegan.
But just as the rod was inches away from piercing the eye, it froze mid-air. Nagato could no longer move it.
Instead of frustration, he smiled faintly.
"Well… I can't do it. You'll have to destroy it yourself."
You nodded.
You had asked him to try only to confirm whether Madara had placed restrictions on Nagato.
Now it was proven.
You picked up a kunai from your pouch and slashed directlytoward the Rinnegan.
There was no resistance—
Even if the Rinnegan tried to resist, Nagato's body had no chakra and no life force left to support it.
Just like that, Nagato's two Rinnegan were destroyed.
You felt no pity at all.
You could awaken your own Rinnegan at any time, and you didn't know how many seals, traps, and hidden bindings Madara or Black Zetsu had placed on these eyes.
Destroying them was their best possible fate.
Nagato felt a sharp sting of pain, but instead of anguish, there was peace in his expression.
Moments later, already withered and exhausted, Nagato breathed his final breath…
and died.
Konan trembled.
Her eyes filled with tears, though none fell.
She simply looked at Nagato with a quiet, broken gentleness.
You spoke softly to her:
"Well… Nagato asked me to take care of you.
But I know you will not follow me.
So I will seal two of my Mangekyō techniques in your eyes.
The next time you meet Obito… you will be able to kill him yourself and take your revenge."
For the first time since Nagato's death, Konan looked directly at you.
You exited Sage Mode.
Konan could now see your Mangekyō clearly—
the red-and-black pattern glowing with power.
You placed your palms in front of her eyes and sealed both abilities:
Kūkai no Kago — Cage of Empty Space
Ashihara no Michi — Path of a Thousand Steps
You explained them carefully:
" left eyes seals space itself and slows time up to a thousand times.
Right eyes calls your future self to fight beside you.
But both are tied to chakra and personal limit—
you can only summon up to five selves, and only for a few seconds."
Then you continued:
"I'll also tell you Obito's abilities.
His Mangekyō is Kamui—it lets him transfer his body into another dimension.
He has a five-minute limit on intangibility.
After five minutes, he must become solid again.
Obito also has Izanagi, which can counter death once.
So you must ambush him using my eyes—and kill him in that moment."
Konan listened silently.
You finished the seals, stepped back, and without another word you turned around and began walking toward Konoha…
Your steps slow, but steady.
