----------------------------
"Old man, how do you know about all these abilities?" Jiraiya asks Fukasaku while incinerating a paper chakram from Konan.
"Yes, Paa… I never knew you have so much knowledge about the Rinnegan." Shima also questions him while smashing the head of the hellhound with staff.
All this time, the toads and Jiraiya have been communicating using a secret mind transmission technique of Mount Myoboku.
"I found some records in the Temple of Toad Sage. Believe it or not, but the old Toad was the teacher of Sage of Six Paths."
"What?" Jiraiya and Shima are shocked to hear it.
"Sage of Six Paths is real!"
"Of course, if his eyes are real, then he should be real, too." Fukasaku stares at Jiraiya with disappointment.
"So, it was that old geezer who told you," Shima asks Fukasaku.
Mm…
"I was not certain of our chances of victory against the legendary Rinnegan, so I asked the old geezer for help. But he actually knew about the Rinnegan's abilities." Fukasaku lies to the group with a straight face.
"From this point onward, I will instruct you with appropriate countermeasures during the battle. You have to remember that all these Rinnegan wielders, including the summons, share their vision. So sneak attacks won't work on them and they don't have any blind spots." Fukasaku claps his hands and jumps on top of Jiraiya's shoulder.
"Alright!" Jiraiya and the rest nod in understanding.
"Baa… you can't kill that hellhound. Not just the hellhound, all of these Rinnegan summons are immortal. We can't kill anyone of these but once they die, they won't respawn for a certain amount of time. Now, for the weakness of each summon, the giant drill-beaked summon is quite agile and can fly at an incredible speed while laying explosive eggs. It's vulnerable to Fire Release and blunt physical attacks at its neck.
Ken boy! Lure it at a sufficient lower height and strike it with your Sasumata to snap its neck with a single attack."
"Despite my weakness, I will give it my best to knock down that bird!"
Ken inhales a large amount of air from the surroundings.
"Water Release: Gunshot,"
He spews out a giant orb of water towards the flying drill-beaked bird.
Bang…
The water orb brushes past the wings of the birds. Some of the feathers of the bird scatter down to the ground.
Rii…
The angry bird turns its attention to Gamaken and shoots towards him like an arrow with its drill beak pointed forward.
BAM…
Gamaken blocks the attack with his Sakazuki shield.
BAM…
"Exploding Sasumata Attack,"
He attacks the bird with a flurry of Sasumata attacks. The bird swiftly glides through the attacks and takes off to the sky. Some holes open on its belly and it drops massive egg-like pods toward Gamaken.
BOOM… BOOM… BOOM…
The eggs-like pods explode on top of Gamaken.
"Ken boy will handle that bird." Fukasaku turns his attention to the Giant Panda and the Giant Ox.
"The Giant Panda can harden its skin, so blunt attacks aren't effective against it, whereas the giant ox possesses enormous strength. A direct contest of strength isn't advisable against it. Gamahiro boy… wear it down with your agility. Its weakness lies around its belly. The lower spot around its neck is also quite soft. You should be able to slice it apart with continuous attacks from your dual blades."
"I will keep that in mind." Gamahiro unsheathes the giant dual blades from his shoulders and leaps towards the rampaging giant ox charging towards them.
Whoosh…
He jumps on top of the Giant ox's back and slashes its back with his dual katanas.
Ding…
Sound of metal hitting metal rings in his ears. Vibrations travel through the dual blades and Gamahiro's hands.
"Its hide is so thick. I have to attack its weak spot."
Mooo…
The giant ox moos loudly and attempt to jump around to drop Gamahiro from its back. Gamahiro grabs the horns of the giant bull and directs it away from the village.
"I will be back in a while!" He shouts while leading the giant ox away from the battlefield.
"Bunta Boy! Hold that Giant Rhino for us. Similar to the giant ox, don't contest with it in strength while it's charging. Its thick skin is impervious to blunt and piercing attacks. You should be able to slice apart its legs with your blade. Also, the broken wings are its weak spots. Once you rip them apart, its strength and defense will lower considerably."
Gamabunta, who has been kiting the charge of the Giant Rhino all this time, notices a pair of broken grey wings on its beak.
"Got it!" He leaps in the air and smashes his giant body on top of the Giant Rhino.
BANG…
A crater appears beneath Gamabunta's body as the giant Rhino smashes into the ground.
Rumble… Rumble…
The ground trembles violently under the giant Rhino's rage. It swings its massive horn and launches Gamabunta high up in the air.
Whoosh…
Gamabunta unsheathes his giant Dosu blade and swings it downward in mid-air.
"Bunta boy should be fine on his own. Afterall, he is the strongest of three brothers."
Fukasaku turns his attention to Shima, who is struggling against the multiple heads of the hellhound. The hellhound has already multiplied seven times.
"Baa… don't waste your chakra and energy on it. Ninjutsu and any sort of physical attack don't have any effect on it. You must seal it using a Fuinjutsu technique or cast a powerful genjutsu on it to restrict it."
"Hmph… I will seal this big dog with my Toad Sealing Technique." Shima smashes the head of the hellhound, who is almost close to biting her.
"Jiraiya-boy, I will deal with this giant centipede and the giant crab. Both of them are vulnerable to blunt attacks despite their hard shells. The skin beneath their shell is quite soft."
Fukasaku leaps from Jiraiya's shoulder. He holds his wooden staff in his hand and smashes on top of the giant centipede's head.
"Frog Kata"
BANG…
Cracks appear on the shell of the giant's centipede at the point of impact. The other shell shatters into countless fragments and crumbles apart.
Squeak… Chii…
The giant centipede flails around in agony and spits out a toxic liquid at Fukasaku.
Swoosh…
Fukasaku jumps in the air and avoids the toxic spit.
Whoosh… whoosh…
Multiple bubbles fly toward him at an incredible speed.
BOOM…
The giant crab's bubbles explode around Fukasaku, enveloping him in the mist.
"Attacks of such scales aren't enough to take down that geezer. He is tougher than he appears."
Jiraiya focuses his attention on the Deva path. The Deva Path is being protected by the rest of the Paths.
'During this battle, I have analyzed the jutsu; they are casting. Yahiko is the core of this jutsu. If I interrupt him, the jutsu will fail without any consequences.'
"Nagato, Sensei is about to get serious. I don't think I can hold him back any longer. Also, the summons of the animal path is battling against the toads of Mount Myoboku." Konan launches a barrage of razor-sharp paper at Jiraiya.
"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique,"
Jiraiya spews out a massive breath of fire toward the barrage of papers. The flames cover a large span of the area and incinerate the barrage of papers to ashes.
"My preparation is almost complete. Currently, I can't deploy the other paths since most of the chakra and attention are focused on the Deva Path. Buy me a few more seconds!"
The Naraka path communicates with Konan through telepathy.
"Thirty more seconds… thirty more seconds is all I can last Jiraiya Sensei without much preparation."
Konan claps her palms. The Archangel wings around her body morph into a massive paper spear composed of paper bombs. She infuses all of her remaining chakra into the giant spear.
"Heavenly Spear of Judgement,"
Whoosh…
The giant spear shoots toward Jiraiya at an incredible speed.
"Shit! I can't take this attack head-on."
Jiraiya makes some quick hand signs and slams his palm on the ground.
"Summoning: Penta Rashomon,"
"Needle Jizō,"
Jiraiya summons five layered Rashomon gates to block Konan's all-out desperate attempt.
BOOM…
A massive explosion spreads throughout the battlefield as the spear explodes on top of the gates. The First Rashomon takes the attack head-on and almost instantly disperses. The second gate lowers the power of the attack and crumbles apart. The third gate reduces the air pressure generated by the attack and vanishes. The fourth gate negates the heat produced by the explosion of multiple paper bombs. The fifth gate blocks the shockwaves generated by the aftermath of the jutsu and disappears.
Even after so many defenses, a few swathes of flames manage to escape and scorch Jiraiya's body. The armor of hairs around his body blocks the flames, but the hairs get burned to a crisp.
The aftereffects of the jutsu die down to reveal a giant crater at the previous position of the Five Rashomon gates.
"Hot… hot… HOT!"
Jiraiya extinguishes the few licks of flames still clinging to his clothes.
Guffaw…
Konan falls to the ground. Her origami body turns normal after expending all her chakra.
"I have to appreciate your talent. Not only have your techniques improved, but you have turned into one hell of a woman as well, Konan."
"I am still lacking compared to you Sensei!" Konan responds in an empathetic tone.
