Chapter 76 Awakening
Chapter 76 Awakening
Nagato hadn't originally planned to start destroying Konoha so soon.
In the initial plan devised by An, the Akatsuki organization was to completely wipe out the entire Konoha Village's fighting force, and then Nagato would appear and calmly unleash a "Super Shinra Tensei," maximizing the aura of a god.
This way, they can destroy Konoha Village and also deter the other four great nations, making them target the weakest link and launch a coordinated attack on Konoha Village instead of working together to cause trouble for the Akatsuki organization first.
After all, if the Akatsuki organization could easily destroy Konoha, then destroying other ninja villages wouldn't be difficult for them either.
However, plans are not always able to keep up with changes, and one unexpected event after another occurred, causing Nagato to be eliminated prematurely.
If everything had gone smoothly, it would have been fine, but he just happened to run into Might Guy, who had opened all seven gates, and had a head-on clash with Daylight Tiger. Although he didn't die, his invincible aura was completely dispelled.
That won't do!
What Nagato wanted to do was to use absolute power to deter all countries, so that no country would dare to start a war at will, thereby bringing peace to the ninja world.
However, if his deterrent power is insufficient, the result will be the same as the previous situation of the five great nations, which will lead to a series of challenges and endless wars, and will instead fail to bring peace to the ninja world.
Therefore, we can't delay any longer!
Nagato is going to unleash his full power this time, completely destroying Konoha!
His body rose higher and higher, soaring into the clouds and hovering above them, with the bright full moon behind him, leaving only a tiny figure in the eyes of the people on the ground.
But when he spreads his arms, no one can ignore his presence.
The Six Paths of Pain also retreated, using instantaneous teleportation to avoid being affected by the upcoming attacks.
After Akimichi Torifu broke free from the puppet beast's entanglement, he straightened his body, stretched out his hands, and waved them frantically upwards, but he was still a long way from Nagato and couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.
The Third Hokage and the others were completely helpless, and could only watch as a massive amount of chakra gathered around Nagato. It was obvious to anyone that the next attack would be earth-shattering and impossible to resist.
But despite trying every possible means, they couldn't find a way to stop Nagato.
"Help me up." A weak voice suddenly rang out.
When the Third Hokage and the others turned around, they saw Guy struggling to push aside the medical ninja in front of him and climb up from the stretcher.
"Kai, don't move around! Your injuries are serious; you need to rest!"
"No, Third Hokage, now is not the time for me to rest." Kai's body was a little stiff, but the flames in his eyes were still burning fiercely.
"You saw the attack just now. If he had aimed it at the village this time, the entire village would have been completely destroyed."
"Now, only I can stop him!"
"But your body..." The third generation hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.
"No problem!" Kai gave a thumbs-up, grinned, and said with great pride, "Where the leaves dance, the fire will never die!"
"Third Master, now is the time for me to embody the Will of Fire!"
"All these years of diligent self-cultivation and self-discipline have been for this moment!"
"When you're determined to protect what's most important to you, even at the cost of your life!"
"For our home and village, for our comrades who have shared life and death, for my beloved disciple..."
"I have no regrets about my choice!"
"Is that so?" The Third Hokage nodded solemnly. "Kai, I understand your resolve!"
"Then, I'll leave everything to you!"
Led by the third generation, everyone bowed deeply to Kai with utmost respect, expressing their gratitude for his selfless sacrifice.
Kai took a deep breath, tensed his body, and began to gather chakra, once again breaking the limitations on his body.
Accompanied by unimaginable pain, Kai felt as if every cell in his body was screaming wildly, stimulating his nerves and warning him that if this continued, his body would completely collapse.
But thanks to the strong willpower he had cultivated through years of diligent practice, Kai quickly adapted to the immense pain, and with a willingness to die, he forcibly pushed his physical skills to another level.
All I can say is that the ninja world is truly a world of idealism, where powerful mental strength can indeed create miracles!
"Eight Gates Formation, Eighth Gate, Gate of Death, Open!"
"The Eight Gates Formation!"
With Kai's roar, his skin cracked inch by inch, and before the blood could drip, it was evaporated into scarlet steam by the boiling chakra, like burning blood flames enveloping his body and spinning rapidly around him.
His bones cracked under the strain, every muscle twisted and swelled under overload, constantly tearing, healing, and tearing again, helping his body surpass human limits.
The ground collapsed layer by layer under the violent chakra, and the rubble and dust were swept up by the enormous aura of Guy and shot into the sky, churning the clouds.
The numerous Konoha ninjas hurriedly retreated to a distance to avoid being caught in the aftershocks of the attack. They couldn't even look directly at the center of the battlefield; the raging chakra storm's aftershocks alone were enough to tear ordinary ninjas apart.
This strange phenomenon immediately caught Nagato's attention. He lowered his gaze and landed on Kai, causing his pupils to shrink involuntarily.
"You can still stand up?"
"What a chilling realization!"
"Too bad, he's a Konoha ninja!"
After sighing a few times, Nagato accelerated the accumulation of chakra. When this power reached its peak, he forcefully swung his arms downwards.
"From this moment forward, let the world feel pain!"
"Shinra Tensei!"
Nagato's Rinnegan emitted a dazzling purple light, and space seemed to freeze for a moment before it exploded with a roar!
Daylight suddenly descended, as if a sun had suddenly risen in the sky, its blinding white light completely banishing the night and even obscuring the moon's light.
Everyone felt as if something was pressing down on their hearts; their hearts pounded, they couldn't stand steadily, and even breathing became difficult, as if they sensed the arrival of the end of the world.
The entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence; it seemed as if even sound had vanished.
In this moment of panic, a calm voice suddenly rang out, like a sharp sword piercing through the oppressive sky.
"Death Gate. Evening Elephant!"
With a deafening roar, the earth collapsed, and a deep crater suddenly appeared. Kai's crimson figure, like a bolt of blood-red lightning, surged upstream.
His legs were wreathed in crimson chakra flames, and he strode through the air as if it were solid ground, compressing the air into solidity. With a series of sonic booms, he created a constantly exploding spatial passage, cutting the dull space in two, and met Nagato's attack head-on.
"One foot!"
With a shout, Kai kicked hard into the invisible repulsive force field.
