"Lion's Mane Barrage!"
Facing the summoned crab of the Animal Path Pain, Jiraiya struck first.
His white hair instantly entangled the crab's body.
With a 'pfft,' the crab was gone.
Jiraiya then controlled his white hair to fly out from the white smoke, directly at the Animal Path Pain.
The Animal Path Pain frowned and dodged.
Boom!
The stiff, long hair shattered the wall behind the Animal Path Pain.
"Gama Ken, buy me some time!"
Jiraiya clasped his hands together and leaped onto Gama Ken's head.
At this moment, three hell hounds rushed over, growling.
"Leave it to me!"
Gama Ken, shield in his left hand and trident in his right, moved with agile steps to meet them.
"Die!"
As he neared the hell hounds, Gama Ken fiercely struck the neck of one with his trident.
The scene stretched out instantly.
The hell hound howled and exploded into fragments.
Gama Ken, carrying Jiraiya, leaped out of the explosion.
Water pipes along the way collapsed, tearing through the entire building.
The man and the toad leaped onto a higher rooftop. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Jiraiya clearly saw the chameleon's back: "I actually found an opening behind him!"
Startled, the chameleon quickly turned invisible and changed direction to escape.
Gama Ken, trident in hand, smashed down fiercely.
The chameleon let out a pained cry, pinned to the ground by Gama Ken and dragged out a hundred meters.
The Animal Path Pain clasped his hands together: "There's much more than that, Teacher Jiraiya!"
The Crow hawk appeared, circling in the sky.
Its sharp beak aimed at Gama Ken and it dive-bombed.
Gama Ken suddenly turned, quickly bringing his shield to his chest.
*Bang!*
The immense force sent Gama Ken flying.
"Gama Ken!"
Jiraiya cried out as he fell from the air.
The Crow hawk turned its target to Jiraiya and attacked again.
Seeing this, Jiraiya turned and fled.
"His hands have been clasped together the whole time, is he preparing for some jutsu?"
Konan stared at Jiraiya, her expression grave.
"So what..."
As the Crow hawk pursued Jiraiya, it also released golden eggs that could explode.
Jiraiya would be caught in the blast if he wasn't careful.
Following the dark water pipes, Jiraiya pushed his speed to the limit.
At the end of the pipes, the Crow hawk suddenly blocked Jiraiya's path.
Jiraiya chuckled, "Your work ends here!"
He immediately unleashed a torrent of flames.
The Crow hawk was instantly incinerated by the intense heat.
At this very moment, the rhinoceros summoned by the Animal Path Pain struck Jiraiya from behind, charging towards the opposite wall.
*Boom!*
The wall was instantly blasted open.
Konan and the Animal Path Pain stared intently at the spot.
*Boom!*
A loud explosion echoed from within the hole.
The rhinoceros, struck by some unknown force, was sent flying backward, unconscious.
Explosions roared from the opening, and thick smoke billowed out.
In the darkness, six pairs of eyes flickered in and out of sight.
"It seems he was truly driven to this..."
The light from the hole illuminated Jiraiya's silhouette.
On his left and right shoulders stood two toads wearing trench coats.
The Animal Path Pain was stunned, surprised by the significant changes in Jiraiya's appearance.
"This must be the jutsu he was preparing earlier," Konan said.
"The battle has begun..."
Jiraiya's power erupted, and the ground instantly buckled and sank.
Fukasaku the toad flicked out his long tongue, trapping the nearby chameleon.
Shima the toad unleashed a torrent of water jutsu, immediately slicing the chameleon in half.
Blood stained the surrounding waterways.
The Animal Path Pain clasped his hands together: "Summoning Jutsu!"
White smoke rose, and the Human Path Pain and the Preta Path Pain emerged.
Jiraiya exhaled a heavy breath, his expression grim.
Instantly, the Human Path Pain charged forward.
*Bang!*
With just a sweep of Jiraiya's leg,
The Human Path Pain was sent tumbling a thousand meters, crashing into the wall.
"Let's end this quickly!"
"Sage Art: Fire Style: Fire Dragon Bullet!"
Jiraiya, cooperating with the two sages, unleashed a massive amount of oil.
The two sages simultaneously released Fire and Wind Style jutsu.
In an instant, they ignited the entire area below the building.
The Preta Path Pain, with swift reflexes, charged in front of them.
He raised his hands, and absorbed Jiraiya and the two sages' combined attack.
"Huh?"
"If that's the case then!"
A wooden clog suddenly fell from the sky.
"Super Tailed Beast Rasengan!"
The fierce wind, hidden within the pipes, was unleashed at this moment.
A massive Rasengan appeared above the Preta Path Pain.
The Preta Path Pain, enduring the intense winds, spread his arms.
The Rasengan was instantly absorbed.
Jiraiya frowned and quickly retreated, putting distance between himself and the three Pains.
"This is not good."
"Little Jiraiya, let's start with the weakest one!"
The two sages simultaneously threw smoke bombs.
Jiraiya seized the opportunity, appearing behind the Human Path Pain.
Unexpectedly, the Human Path Pain, caught off guard, instantly blocked Jiraiya's attack.
Before Jiraiya could even be surprised, the Preta Path Pain came charging from behind.
"Sage Art: Needle Jizo!"
Jiraiya flipped over and climbed onto the wall.
His hardened hair attacked the three Pains like a raging storm.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
The Animal Path Pain quickly summoned a panda to block.
"Among the three opponents, there's no one who can attack proactively. Let's target the one who uses Summoning Jutsu first!"
Jiraiya locked his target onto the Animal Path Pain.
Seeing this, the Animal Path Pain clasped his hands together again, preparing to summon.
"You won't!"
Jiraiya moved with extreme speed, kicking as he closed in.
The Animal Path Pain rolled continuously to the end of the pipe.
"Little Jiraiya, use that move!"
Jiraiya nodded slightly.
The two sages on his shoulders opened their mouths wide.
"Illusion: Toad Mouth Trap!"
The extremely magical sound effects were more potent within the pipes.
All three Pains found their bodies uncontrollably immobilized.
Before they could react,
The environment around them had changed.
The three were bound within a transparent glass container filled with water.
Four toads holding swords pointed their right hands simultaneously at the three inside the glass.
Drip...
Drip...
The sound of dripping water echoed throughout the building.
Konan stood still, watching the scene without intervening.
The bodies of the three Pains were impaled by massive swords attached to chains.
Jiraiya sighed deeply: "It's finally over, let's leave here first."
"We can rest well afterwards."
Suddenly, Jiraiya stopped, as if remembering something.
In a puddle of water before him, the Deva Path Pain's figure dashed towards him.
Jiraiya broke into a smile: "I felt something was missing."
"So it was you!"
The moment the Deva Path Pain approached Jiraiya, Jiraiya turned back sharply.
The Deva Path Pain was taken aback.
Jiraiya's fist slammed hard into the Deva Path Pain's face.
The Deva Path Pain's body flew out like a kicked soccer ball, unimpeded.
Jiraiya laughed and shook his wrist: "I almost forgot, we met before in Tankobon Street."
"When I first saw these three, I thought they looked familiar. The black iron rods stuck in them are just like yours."
