The Tenseigan started from the Hyuga main family.

Hinata Zechen reached out with his right hand and pulled out a golden light sword tens of feet long from the shattered ball of light. The slender tip of the sword even reached the low-hanging dark clouds above Amegakure.

"No ninja can escape the seal of Planetary Devastation!"

Gazing at the golden light sword that reached straight into the clouds, Pain was astonished that Hyuga Sawatatsu possessed such abilities, but he still believed that no one in the entire ninja world could escape the shroud of Planetary Devastation.

Not far away, an explosion suddenly erupted from the ruins. A gray iron drill, about the size of a normal person and with veins protruding from its surface, smashed through the surface rubble, revealing a dark hole.

A figure shot out from it; it was none other than the Asura Path of Pain's Six Paths.

The thick iron drill transformed back into an arm, and then the entire forearm transformed into a giant cannon amidst the mechanical whirring. As the cannon barrel spun wildly, a large amount of purple chakra began to condense, aiming at the planetary exploding star that was about to take shape high in the sky.

This is a powerful combination technique unleashed by the Six Paths of Pain. Once the enemy is sealed and controlled by the powerful suction of Planetary Devastation, the Asura Path's laser cannon will pierce through the entire Planetary Devastation, completely destroying all enemies.

Ha, Nagato is far too confident!

Hinata Zechen sneered as he swung his golden lightsaber down into the sky.

Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!

A dazzling golden light burst forth from the golden longsword, slashing down towards the Earth Explosion Star, which had already condensed to a size of several meters.

The lightsaber swept across without encountering much resistance, instantly turning the outermost layer of rock into powder.

Immediately, the entire Earth-Exploding Star collapsed, and the scattered golden light waves spread indiscriminately in all directions.

Wherever the golden light waves reached, rocks shattered, buildings collapsed, and the dazzling light blinded everyone.

Several breaths passed before everything returned to calm.

The original location of the tower has been dented several meters deep, forming a huge semi-circular pit. Everything inside has been smoothed out, making the surface incredibly smooth.

The Asura Path, which had just been poised to attack, had collapsed and was no longer able to rise, leaving only the figure of Pain standing alone in the same spot.

"So, do we still want to continue fighting? If we fight with all our might, the entire Rain Village will be completely destroyed."

Hyuga Zetsu, still in Tenseigan chakra mode, floated in mid-air and stared at Pain on the ground.

Whoosh!

The torrential rain extinguished the flames and smoke on the ground, revealing the scene that had been hidden.

More than one-fifth of the Rain Village area has been reduced to ruins in the aftermath of the recent clash.

"It's your Konoha ninjas again, bringing disaster to Amegakure and destroying the peace I've worked so hard to build!"

Pain's eyes were filled with hatred and resentment. He raised his hand several times, but in the end, he fell back down in defeat.

As Hyuga Sawatatsu said, Amegakure is now unable to withstand any further destruction.

Nagato, who had always firmly believed in the power of the Rinnegan, began to waver slightly. The battle he had just witnessed made him realize that Hyuga Sawatatsu's azure eyes, in terms of both power and strength, were absolutely no less powerful than his own Rinnegan.

"If you still want to fight, you can go somewhere else."

Hinata Zetsu could clearly sense the anger and other negative emotions emanating from Pain, so he slowly lowered his levitation height and pointed to the vast lake outside Amegakure, which was as large as the sea.

"Go away. I will avenge this day in Konoha and make you experience the pain I suffered today."

Pain slowly closed his eyes, trying his best to control the anger in his heart.

In Nagato's perception, Jiraiya and Kakashi had already left Amegakure. The leak of information about the Rinnegan and the Akatsuki was inevitable, and continuing the fight was pointless.

Most importantly, based on the last battle, Nagato deduced that Hyuga Sawatatsu had mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique. Even if one wins against an opponent who has mastered space-time ninjutsu, they cannot capture them.

"In that case, goodbye!"

Sensing that Pain had lost all will to fight, Hyuga Zechen smiled, and the green chakra on his body gradually contracted, deactivating the Tenseigan chakra state.

"I'm really curious, how could someone with the Uzumaki clan bloodline possess the Rinnegan?"

Hinata Sawatatsu slowly turned his head, his gaze piercing through layers of obstacles, and after leaving a single sentence for Nagato in the secret room, he vanished into thin air.

What exactly did he mean by that?

Nagato looked puzzled, but quickly put the question out of his mind.

"Konan, immediately mobilize all ninjas to rescue the civilians. The Akatsuki will cover all reconstruction costs for the collapsed buildings."

Konan glanced at Nagato with a worried expression before nodding. She then used pieces of paper to create a clone that shot out and hovered in the sky above Amegakure.

"Lord Angel!"

The appearance of Konan brought great encouragement to the anxious ninjas and civilians of Amegakure.

Since the angel is still alive, it proves that Payne is safe and sound.

For these ravaged ninjas and civilians, they desperately needed something to cling to, even if it was just a fantasy, it would bring them satisfaction.

-----------------

Amidst the wind and rain, Kakashi, carrying Jiraiya, was running at top speed.

On a desolate rocky mountain, two figures stood atop, watching two people rush past below.

"Should we leave them both in the Land of Rain? If the information leaks out, it will become very troublesome."

As the pitcher plant opened, Black Zetsu slowly raised his head, looking at Obito Uchiha wearing a mask beside him, his tone full of mockery.

"Leaving only the two of them alive is meaningless. Hyuga Zechen has already mastered the Fourth Hokage's technique, and I know firsthand just how unbeatable the Flying Thunder God Technique is."

Throughout the entire sequence, Obito's Sharingan beneath his mask remained fixed on Kakashi. Only when the Flying Thunder God Technique was mentioned did Obito's body tremble slightly, and he felt a sudden, inexplicable twitch in his back.

"In that case, we have no choice but to let them go. Hyuga Sawatatsu will be here soon."

A look of "I knew it" flashed across Black Zetsu's face. The pitcher plant closed up again, slowly sinking and disappearing.

"Kakashi..."

Obito muttered something under his breath, and only after Kakashi's figure disappeared from sight did his body gradually get swallowed up by the vortex.

It seemed like someone was spying on us just now?

Kakashi seemed to sense something and suddenly turned around to look into the distance, only to see that the desolate mountain was deserted.

"Let's go, let's teleport back to Konoha."

Just then, a figure flashed beside Kakashi, and Hyuga Zetsu appeared, grabbing Kakashi's shoulder.

As the Flying Thunder God Technique was activated, the three figures simultaneously vanished from the Land of Rain.

Chapter 97 Akatsuki Organization, Assemble

"Jiraiya!"

On the platform outside the Hokage Building, Tsunade saw Jiraiya, who was covered in injuries, and immediately ran over to him.

Could it be that……

Looking at Tsunade's magnificent figure bouncing up and down as she ran, Jiraiya's eyes lit up. He shoved Kakashi aside and then opened his arms wide.

boom!

The next moment, Jiraiya was not greeted by Tsunade's embrace, but by a fist the size of a casserole dish.

Caught off guard, Jiraiya was sent flying by Tsunade's punch, his entire body flying several meters away.

"Jiraiya, you bastard, I thought you weren't coming back."

Jiraiya, who had collapsed in a daze, was immediately grabbed by the collar and lifted up from the ground by Tsunade.

"I'm back now, aren't I?"

Looking at Tsunade's tear-streaked face, Jiraiya felt a deep jolt in his heart, and the pain from the punch he had taken instantly vanished.

"Tsunade, can you put me down first? There are other people around here."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiraiya, looking around, discovered that Hyuga Sawatatsu and Kakashi had already disappeared.

Oh no, I've really lost face...

The moment this thought crossed Jiraiya's mind, he felt his entire body fall into a warm embrace.

It's daytime now, so why am I dreaming?

Jiraiya, who usually looks like a lecherous old man, was now stiff all over, and didn't even know where to put his hands.

"Jiraiya, promise me you won't take any more risks, okay?"

The sound of Tsunade's voice brought Jiraiya, whose face was flushed and who looked as if he were drunk, back to some of his sobriety.

I promise you, I never will.

-----------------

In the incredibly dark stone chamber, there was only a stone lamp, its orange flame burning fiercely, yet it still could not dispel the surrounding darkness.

A figure sat crouching in the darkness, motionless for a long time, like a stone statue.

"Payne, the appointed time has arrived."

Just then, a slender figure entered the cave. The paper flower on her head and her amber eyes were none other than Xiaozhi Baihu Xiaonan.

Pain suddenly opened his eyes, his purple Rinnegan shining brightly in the darkness.

The Illusionary Body Technique!

Illusory figures appeared in various parts of the cave. Members of the Akatsuki organization, who were in different positions in the ninja world, gathered together, making the small cave feel crowded.

"It's been a long time. It's rare to see everyone together."

After glancing around, Kisame Hoshigaki spoke first.

"What's going on this time? My time is very valuable."

Kakuzu's voice was full of impatience. He was hunting down a rogue ninja on the bounty list and felt that the organization's sudden meeting was a waste of his time.

"The organization's intelligence has been obtained by the Konoha ninjas, so we must immediately launch a formal operation targeting the nine tailed beasts, from the One-Tailed to the Nine-Tailed. Although they are formidable opponents, we must capture all the tailed beasts to accomplish the great cause of our Akatsuki organization."

Pain slowly raised his hand, then clenched it into a fist.

"For this, we all need to work together. Each of us has our own thoughts and ambitions, but from this moment on, we will become, in the legends of future generations, figures comparable to the Sage of Six Paths who founded the Ninja Sect, bringing eternal peace to the ninja world."

The Heavenly Dao's gaze swept over each of the phantoms present, its tone filled with resolute determination.

"Everyone, remember this: only success is allowed, failure is not permitted!"

After hearing Pain's declaration, the members present reacted in various ways: some were inexplicably excited, some were indifferent, and some remained expressionless.
