"Shinichi!!!"

The techniques of the Heavenly Dao are peculiar and bizarre. When they are activated, there are no signs or omens whatsoever, not even the formation of hand seals.

Jiraiya watched as Shinichi Hyuga was about to have his heart pierced by the opponent, and he let out a low cry of anxiety.

Just as the black rod was about to pierce Shinichi's chest, his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and then Shinichi's figure returned to Jiraiya's side.

For some unknown reason, Shinichi, who had jumped out of the alternate dimension, seemed to have completely lost his momentum and landed steadily on the sea surface, calmly looking at the five Pains not far away.

"Ok?"

Jiraiya sensed that something was wrong with Shinichi, glanced at Shinichi who had suddenly appeared beside him, and murmured softly.

"This guy... uses shadow clones?"

Jiraiya thought to himself, not having time to think further, when he saw Shinichi Hyuga suddenly charging towards the enemy in front of him, looking like a brainless brute.

"Humph!"

However, what Jiraiya noticed was not noticed by Tendo and the others. He was wondering how the other party had left when he saw Shinichi Hyuga rushing towards him.

With a disdainful snort, Tendo reached out again, aiming at Shinichi Hyuga:

"Shinra Tenzheng!"

"Shinra Tenzheng!"

Facing Shinichi Hyuga charging mindlessly toward him, Tendo had no intention of holding back. As Shinichi Hyuga reached him, Tendo raised his hand and used Shinra Tensei.

A powerful repulsive force struck Hyuga Shinichi instantly. However, the moment the force hit him, a smile suddenly appeared on Hyuga Shinichi's face. As his body was sent flying by Shinra Tensei, he quickly pulled out a kunai from his pocket and shot it towards Devado with all his might.

As he fired the kunai, Shinichi Hyuga's figure instantly transformed into a cloud of white mist and vanished into thin air.

"Um!?"

Shinichi Hyuga's shadow clone suddenly disappeared, a scene that surprised Tendo. Tendo was also quite surprised by Shinichi's counterattack when Shinra Tensei attacked him.

The opponent's response was calm and fluid. Despite it being their first time facing his Shinra Tensei attack, their expression showed no surprise, as if they had known he would use Shinra Tensei all along...

Nagato has a fairly clear understanding of himself, and over the years, as a mercenary for a major power, his Akatsuki has participated in many wars, large and small. Nagato knows that his techniques are somewhat special and are extremely rare in this world.

When ordinary people face their own technique, they can't even react like Shinichi Hyuga did, let alone fight back. They might not even realize what kind of technique they were attacked by before they die.

Shinichi Hyuga's counterattack... was so outstanding among all the opponents Nagato had encountered that it made Nagato extremely wary of Shinichi Hyuga as an enemy.

Despite his vigilance, Tiandao calmly sidestepped the kunai shot at him.

Although Shinichi's counterattack was sudden, there were five people with Rinnegan watching the battlefield, so his attack couldn't escape their sight. While the lightning release kunai was fast, Pain's movement speed was equally impressive, making it easy to dodge such an attack.

"Zi-"

The Lightning Release kunai swept past Tendo's side, but just as the kunai dodged Tendo and arrived behind him, Shinichi Hyuga suddenly appeared from the void, grabbed the kunai in mid-air, and slashed directly at the back of Tendo's neck.

Flying Thunder God!

Second paragraph!

A glint flashed in Hyuga Shin's eyes; this time, he was determined to kill.

Orochimaru, that scoundrel, had already slipped away from the Six Paths of Pain, and now he might be hiding somewhere, secretly watching their battle with Pain.

Although Jiraiya successfully defeated the Animal Path, in a two-against-five situation, Shinichi and Jiraiya were still at a disadvantage.

Although Shinichi and his group were outnumbered, they had a significant advantage in intelligence compared to Pain.

Pain may have some understanding of Jiraiya, but it certainly wouldn't be much. Jiraiya only taught Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan for a little over two years, less than three years. During that time, Jiraiya mostly laid the foundation for the three of them.

These people definitely don't have a deep understanding of Jiraiya's techniques.

As for Shinichi Hyuga, he was a blank slate in Pain's eyes; Shinichi was a complete stranger to him.

Conversely, Pain was completely transparent to Shinichi Hyuga. Shinichi knew all the techniques Pain possessed, which was the key to Shinichi's ability to kill Pain.

Shinra Tensei...

To the average person, Shinra Tensei is almost invincible, but in reality, it is far from being truly "invincible."

After casting Shinra Tensei, the caster needs nearly five seconds to prepare before being able to cast a new Shinra Tensei.

This five-second "interval" is the biggest weakness of the Shinra Tensei technique.

For ordinary ninjas, even knowing the weakness of the Shinra Tensei technique doesn't guarantee they'll have the ability to seize that opening. However, for Shinichi Hyuga, who has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, let alone five seconds, even a one-second opening is an opportunity he can seize.

Shinichi Hyuga devised this tactic based on the weaknesses of Shinra Tensei.

In fact, Shinichi Hyuga's plan had already begun when he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to evade the Heavenly Path's Universal Pull. The one who returned to Jiraiya's side using the Flying Thunder God Technique was not Shinichi Hyuga's true body, but his shadow clone.

As Shinichi's main body used the Flying Thunder God Technique to escape from the Universal Tensei and reach a pre-marked open space several miles away, the powerful inertia caused Shinichi to roll forward several meters before he could barely stop.

It was precisely because Shinichi's shadow clone appeared next to Jiraiya that he launched a direct attack on Pain.

Shinichi Hyuga's goal was to entice the opponent to use Shinra Tensei.

As the shadow clone was attacked and disappeared from its original spot, the shadow clone's memories were also transmitted back to Shinichi's mind. He knew that now was the best time to assassinate the Heavenly Dao!

Shinichi Hyuga's sudden appearance behind Pain was clearly unexpected. Although Pain's Rinnegan had all his vision connected, and the other four Paths saw Shinichi Hyuga attack Pain, Shinichi's appearance was too sudden and his attack was too fast. It was too late for the others to come to Pain's rescue.

The Pain Path, having just used Shinra Tensei, was still "on cooldown," and this brief opening was precisely seized upon by Shinichi Hyuga. At this moment, even if the Pain Path wanted to dodge, it was already too late.

Turning around hastily, Tendo saw Shinichi Hyuga's handsome face reflected in his pupils. As the kunai blade was about to fall on his neck, Tendo's eyes were filled with sharpness and killing intent.

Since it was a puppet, there was no way it could show any fear in its eyes.

"clang!!!"

Just as Pain was about to be beheaded by Shinichi Hyuga, a spatial vortex suddenly appeared in the void beside Pain. Obito Uchiha, wearing an orange spiral mask and holding a fan, suddenly appeared beside Pain and blocked Shinichi Hyuga's fatal blow.

Only those who are also users of space-time ninjutsu can deal with a user of space-time ninjutsu!

Obito Uchiha had already arrived at the battlefield. His original intention was to see who dared to invade the Land of Rain. He did not expect that the enemy would be a ninja from Konoha. What he did not expect was that Pain would be caught off guard and about to be beheaded.

Although Pain's body was merely a puppet and a corpse, which the Naraka Path could easily repair, the battle had only just begun, and Obito did not want Pain to reveal too much of his abilities in front of the Konoha ninja.

Once his abilities are fully understood, he, the leader of Akatsuki, will lose his mystique.

This sense of mystery was important to Pain and to Obito Uchiha; it was a form of camouflage, and this "veil of mystery" could not be easily removed.

The moment this veil of mystery disappears, the oppressive feeling these people exert on others will greatly decrease, and the moment their abilities are thoroughly studied, their defeat will not be far off.

Although Obito Uchiha had awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, he still dared not underestimate Konoha. Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to act under Madara Uchiha's name, nor would he have needed to wear a mask and hide his true face.

Even when facing this kid who used the same space-time ninjutsu as the Fourth Hokage, Obito remained fully focused and showed no sign of letting his guard down.

As a ninja, Obito knew very well that if he underestimated his opponent because of his young age, he would probably pay an unbearable price!

"Humph!"

With a soft hum, Obito used his arms to deflect Shinichi Hyuga with his fan.

With Obito blocking him, Pain was given a chance to catch his breath. The five-second gap in Shinra Tensei was easily filled. Realizing that the opportunity was lost, Shinichi didn't dare to linger in Pain's encirclement. The moment Obito blocked him, he quickly used Flying Thunder God Technique to return to Jiraiya's side.

Upon noticing Shinichi's appearance, Jiraiya glanced at him sideways, then turned back to stare at Obito Uchiha, who was slowly emerging from the alternate dimension, and said with some regret, "A very good tactic, but it's a pity it didn't succeed."

"That masked man... is he the one who attacked Konoha back then?"

Jiraiya didn't know much about Obito Uchiha, and Minato didn't publicize it. The investigation into Obito was always conducted in secret.

After all... on the surface, Obito Uchiha was a Konoha hero who died in the battle of Kannabi Bridge. Before capturing Obito, Minato did not want his disciple to become a Konoha traitor hated by everyone.

Therefore, even Jiraiya, who was Minato's teacher, did not know much about Obito Uchiha's identity.

"Yeah, that guy is Uchiha..."

Shinichi Hyuga nodded, but before he could finish speaking, Obito Uchiha in the distance suddenly formed hand seals and released Fire Release. The flames he released, along with the spatial vortex created by Kamui, immediately turned the flames that were attacking Shinichi and the others into a fire tornado.

Fire Release: Storm Dance!

A vortex of flames obscured the gloomy sky and hurtled towards Jiraiya and Shinichi Hyuga, giving Shinichi no chance to finish his sentence.

Like Payne's puppet body...

Madara Uchiha's name was the protective shield that Obito Uchiha used to maintain his mystery. How could he allow himself to be exposed in front of Nagato?

The reason he could so easily order Nagato and Kisame around was largely due to the fact that he carried the name "Uchiha Madara".

"Water Release: Water Wall Formation!"

Jiraiya responded swiftly to the Uchiha clan's water-style attacks. Although water-style ninjutsu wasn't the most compatible with his chakra nature, his water-style techniques were still incredibly effective on the sea.

The massive water wall that Jiraiya created surrounded him and Shinichi, protecting them firmly within it.

In the distance, Tendo and the others quietly watched everything before them, their gazes drifting between the distant water wall and Obito.

Hmm... Even Nagato rarely saw Obito Uchiha use ninjutsu to attack enemies.

To be able to unleash a fire jutsu of such intensity as a raging storm... truly worthy of the Uchiha's reputation!

In the ninja world, the Uchiha clan has always been known for its Sharingan and Fire Release ninjutsu.

"laugh--"

In the instant the water and fire merged, a large amount of scorching water vapor instantly rose up, and a white mist spread out on the sea surface. In this drizzly weather, the mist lingered for a long time.
