Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Chapter 1073: Mastering the New Six Paths of Pain

Somewhere in the Land of Demons

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The soul-stirring roar continued to echo in the valleys of the Land of Demon and accompanied by the bursts of heart-wrenching roars the ground far away from the mouth of the valley will sway and feel the tremors!

While playing with his triple-bladed scythe, Hidan curiously asked Kakuzu, “Hey, what’s that bastard leader doing? It’s been so noisy for a while that I couldn’t even sleep.”

Kakuzu replied in a cold tone, “Don’t talk nonsense, just stay quiet and continue to keep a watch.”

Hidan snorted, “Why would anyone come to such a place? Even birds don’t shit here!”

Kakuzu turned his attention to the valley in the distance where roars and screams of beasts continued to echo, and said with a thoughtful expression on his face, “It’s easy to guess what Nagato is doing. He is trying to gain complete control over the five-tailed beasts now that all of them have become Paths of Pain.”

Hidan wasn’t surprised, and asked, “What do you think, will he be able to control the five-tailed beasts? After all, their power is quite something… it’s always a hassle to keep them in check so that they don’t go out of control.”

“With Nagato’s Rinnegan, there shouldn’t be any problem, he should be able to suppress the five-tailed beasts,” said Kakuzu, it’s just that he wasn’t so confident, after all, five-tailed beasts are a bit too much in his opinion. Being stronger than them is another thing, he is absolutely certain that Nagato is multiple times stronger than the five-tailed beasts but keeping them under control is another matter, after all, the tailed beasts will continue to attack Nagato mentally in order to get back their freedom.

And looking in the direction from where continuous sounds of explosions are coming, Kakuzu added, “I guess he won’t stop unless he gains complete control.”

Hidan licked his lips, feeling excited, “Once he gains complete control, will we be making a big move? I can’t help but look forward to it… Haah, it’s been a while since I last delivered sacrifices to Jashin-sama!”

Kakuzu shrugged not giving any reply, he wasn’t sure what is Nagato and Madara’s plan, but he also had a feeling that the next thing would be a big action.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a dazzling white light flashed in the sky above the valley, and this light was followed by a series of explosions that shook the ground, cracks appeared in the ground, and dust rose in every direction.

Kakuzu and Hidan quickly used their arms to protect their faces from the rising dust.

Once the dust settled, both of them noticed that a distant mountain had collapsed, and a mushroom-shaped cloud was rising from the collapsed mountain.

Both Kakuzu and Hidan instantly guessed the cause of such an explosion, ‘Tailed-Beast Bomb!’

Other than the tailed-beast bomb, they couldn’t think of anything that could cause such devastating damage. Only those bombs that are the result of the aggregation of tailed-beast chakra can level up mountains and change terrain of the ground.

Looking at the distant mushroom-shaped cloud, Kakuzu mumbled, “Maybe Nagato has made some progress…”

He hadn’t even finished his words, when the second explosion sounded, boom!

Hidan was takenaback, “Another one?”

The second explosion was followed by the third, the fourth, and the fifth!

As the smoke gradually settled, both Hidan and Kakuzu were surprised to find that the valley had completely changed into somewhat of a flat terrain with boulders of various sizes raining from the sky.

Hidan was shocked, “Damn it, it’s too much.”

Kakuzu shrugged, “There is nothing to be surprised about at this point.”

Hidan was speechless, “Well, yeah… But I am curious, will Nagato manage to defeat Yama this time?”

Kakuzu did not have the answer to Hidan’s question. A part of him prays that Nagato manages to defeat Yama so that the Akatsuki Organization can finally step out from the shadows of Amatsukami, but another part of him hopes that Nagato fails… the reason for wanting Nagato to fail is that Kakuzu has started to develop extreme fear of the path Nagato has been walking on… it might lead to the destruction of entire Shinobi World. Kakuzu personally doesn’t care about the Shinobi World, however, the destruction of the Shinobi World would mean that he would no longer have the opportunity to earn money, and that is something Kakuzu can’t accept.

Kakuzu knows that his strength is no longer enough to be able to affect the battlefield between the likes of Nagato & Yama, so he can only hope that Nagato loses, and sighed, ‘What have I gotten myself involved into.’

Compared to the outer region, the center of the explosion is still covered in dust and smoke, and standing at the center of this dust and smoke are six figures, each of them wearing a conspicuous black cloak of Akatsuki with red cloud prints. Each of these six figures has similar lavender eyes with a ripple pattern that matches the indifferent expressions on their faces.

Without a doubt, these six figures are the latest batch of Nagato’s Six Paths of Pain.

Except for the Tendō Path which remains the same, the other five have been replaced by the five Jinchuriki of tailed beasts.

The Jinchuriki of the Two-Tails–Yugito Nii of Kumogakure–has been turned into the Human Path, the Jinchuriki of the Four-Tails–Rōshi of Iwagakure–has been turned into the Naraka Path, the Jinchuriki of the Five-Tails–Han of Iwagakure–has been turned into the Animal Path, the Jinchuriki of the Six-Tails–Utakata of Kirigakure–has been turned into the Preta Path, and finally, the Jinchuriki of the Eight-Tails–Killer Bee of Kumogakure–has been turned into the Asura Path.

Unlike Tendō Pain, the remaining five paths are not corpses.

Upon a closer look at their faces, it can be noticed that they still have ruddy complexions, and their chests are still rising and falling as they breathe, clearly signifying that they are still alive, it’s just that they are no longer capable of forming their own thoughts and have become living breathing puppets.

In a sense, these five individuals have already experienced pseudo-deaths, despite being alive, they are not alive. Perhaps this is a fate far worse than death, but Nagato does not seem to care about the fate that has befallen the five Jinchuriki as he landed in front of the new Six Paths of Pain and quietly looked at them.

At this time, Konan flew down from the sky and after landing next to Nagato, she asked, “How did it go?”

Without looking at Konan, Nagato answered, “There is still some problem with Six-tails and Eight-Tails.”

“Is it because of the puppet technique Sasori used?” asked Konan.

Nagato shook his head, “No, Sasori has done a good job…” and explained, “It’s just that, the strength of Six-Tails and Eight-Tails is beyond what Sasori can suppress with his Puppet Technique… Moreover, the Jinchuriki of Eight-Tails has a complete understanding of Eight-Tails, so he is posing extremely strong resistance…”

Understanding Nagato’s words, Konan asked worriedly, “Can it be dealt with?”

“It’s just a small problem, I just need some time to take full control of Six-Tails and Eight-Tails,” said Nagato with a certain tone. He believes that the Rinnegan has the power to suppress the tailed beasts, and with his Rinnegan, he will be able to suppress these tailed beasts without any problem in due time.

In a sense, Nagato is indeed correct, Rinnegan allows the user to control Tailed-Beasts. Even in canon, after acquiring his tomoe-Rinnegan, Sasuke was able to put all the nine-tailed beasts into his control with just a single glance and use them as his Chakra battery.

Although the pair of Rinnegan in Nagato’s eye sockets is not as strong as Sasuke’s Rinnegan, it is still more than enough to control all the tailed beasts, it’s just that he hasn’t tried to do so before, so he is having a little difficulty, but Nagato is confident that if he were to give it some time, he will be able to master it and gain full control over all five tailed beasts.
