บท 236: Chapter 236: The Power of the Yasakani Magatama, Full-Body Susanoo
Kakashi was unconscious, and Fugaku, heavily injured, had lost his ability to fight but remained conscious.
Jiraiya, though less injured, could still use his jutsu.
Among the three, Jiraiya was Nagato's mentor, and he understood better than anyone the relationship between Nagato, Konan, and Yahiko.
He knew Konan was staying in Konoha with Uchiha Akira, but he hadn't expected Akira to provoke Nagato to such an extent.
Seeing Nagato go berserk was something Jiraiya completely understood after what Akira had said.
"I didn't expect Uchiha Akira to be so sharp-tongued."
"Those words really hit Nagato's sore spot."
"Nagato's reaction is entirely reasonable!" Jiraiya thought to himself, watching Deva Path's chakra surge as if he wanted to fight Akira to the death.
"Shinra Tensei!" Deva Path shouted, rushing towards Uchiha Akira, and unleashed Shinra Tensei's repulsive force.
Uchiha Akira took a deep breath, entered Sage Mode, and let the repelling force crash against him. But it was as if his feet were rooted in the ground—he didn't budge an inch.
If Shinra Tensei was a terrifying tidal wave, then Akira, standing firmly amidst its force, was a rock in the sea, unmoved despite the crashing waves.
"This guy's power has grown even stronger," Nagato thought, shocked at seeing Akira resist his Shinra Tensei without moving.
How could Akira's chakra grow so much in such a short time?
"Got anything stronger? Bring it all out!" Akira said, withstanding Shinra Tensei, staring at Deva Path.
"Bansho Ten'in!" Seeing that Shinra Tensei was ineffective, Deva Path used Bansho Ten'in's gravitational pull to draw Akira towards him.
But Akira remained rooted in place, completely unaffected by the pull.
Since repulsion had no effect, naturally, attraction wouldn't either.
Unfazed, Pain raised his hand, gathering a massive amount of chakra in his palm, forming a black sphere the size of a fist. He threw it towards Akira.
A terrifying gravitational pull emerged from the black sphere, drawing in everything around it at high speed.
This was Pain's other technique: Chibaku Tensei.
The black sphere quickly drew in everything near it, enveloping Akira in an enormous mass of rock, earth, and branches.
In a matter of moments, a gigantic sphere with a diameter of nearly a kilometer had formed.
Due to Chibaku Tensei's pull, the gathered materials kept collapsing inward, towards the center.
"This power... it's terrifying," Fugaku and Jiraiya thought as they watched the enormous sphere that had imprisoned Akira. This was the power of the Rinnegan's ocular techniques—truly fearsome.
Yet, despite their awe at Chibaku Tensei, Deva Path's face showed no sign of relief.
While Chibaku Tensei was powerful, Nagato was well aware of Akira's monstrous chakra levels. Even while sealed within the massive sphere, Nagato didn't dare let his guard down.
Sure enough, as if to confirm his fears, the massive sphere began to twist and shrink!
Before everyone's astonished eyes, the sphere shrank to reveal a golden figure—Uchiha Akira's Susanoo.
Unlike others, Akira's Susanoo was complete, adorned with armor and golden wings, hovering in mid-air.
It lacked the Totsuka Blade and Yata Mirror of Itachi's Susanoo, Sasuke's bow, or Madara's twin swords.
But it had a magatama-shaped pendant hanging from its neck.
The pendant was radiating a dazzling light, and the enormous sphere formed by Chibaku Tensei was being absorbed into it.
The Susanoo, fully equipped with its own divine weapon, had the Yasakani Magatama—a tool capable of absorbing powerful attacks and reflecting them.
Of course, there was a condition: the opposing chakra must be less than Akira's.
This condition might seem like a limitation, but considering Akira's overwhelming chakra reserves, it was still quite practical.
As the only super Kage-level ninja in the shinobi world, Akira had unmatched chakra levels.
Thus, he needed no other flashy techniques—the effect of the Yasakani Magatama alone was enough to make him nearly invincible.
Because of this, even when facing the sealing power of Chibaku Tensei, Akira felt no fear.
Chibaku Tensei was designed as a method for the weak to overcome the strong, but for Akira, it was ineffective.
If your chakra doesn't surpass his, no sealing jutsu, no matter how powerful, would work against him.
Under Deva Path's stunned gaze, the massive Chibaku Tensei sphere twisted and was absorbed by the Yasakani Magatama.
"How... how is this possible?" Nagato's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched the sphere disappear into the pendant.
A sphere a kilometer in diameter, like a small planet—absorbed just like that?
Akira had no time for Nagato's amazement. After absorbing it, his Susanoo's pendant shone brilliantly once again.
The massive sphere was released, directly above Deva Path.
The sky darkened as Deva Path looked up, seeing the enormous sphere plummeting towards him. He was utterly stunned.
His own Chibaku Tensei had not only been absorbed but was now being used against him!
"Chibaku Tensei… fall!" Akira raised his hand and made a downward motion, his voice low.
"No, wait—wrong move. This technique looks more like Tengai Shinsei." Akira shook his head, correcting himself after speaking.
Yes, this enormous sphere plummeting down resembled Madara's Tengai Shinsei from the original story, used against the Allied Shinobi Forces.
The sheer size and weight of the sphere were enough to bring despair to anyone facing it, extinguishing even the slightest will to resist.
Boom!
A sphere a kilometer in diameter—just imagine its mass.
In his haste, Deva Path couldn't summon another Super Shinra Tensei powerful enough to destroy Konoha.
There was no stopping it. The entire figure of Deva Path was crushed beneath the giant Chibaku Tensei.
"No wonder in mythology, Buddha liked to suppress the Monkey King with the Five Elements Mountain. This overwhelming power to crush the target… it does feel satisfying," Akira thought silently as he watched the sphere descend upon Deva Path.
As for the earthquake caused by the massive impact?
No problem. Susanoo hovered in mid-air, so even a massive quake wouldn't affect Akira.
Fugaku, having regained some strength, escaped far away, while Jiraiya carried the unconscious Kakashi and jumped to safety.
Otherwise, they would end up dying, not at Deva Path's hands, but Akira's—which would have been truly absurd.
"Is it over?" Fugaku murmured as he watched the giant sphere crash into the ground from afar.
As one of the top Kage-level shinobi in the world, Fugaku now realized that he didn't even qualify to interfere in the battle between Akira and Deva Path. Their strength surpassed his by far.
There was simply no comparison between his own Susanoo and Akira's complete form—he was like a child's toy in comparison.
Akira had already broken beyond the limits of a Kage-level shinobi, and with Sage Mode activated, there was no rival.
Nagato, wielding the Rinnegan's power and a massive chakra pool, stood at the peak of Kage-level strength. Even if he hadn't broken through to a Super Kage level, he was close.
In terms of battle strength, Akira's current power level was probably around 120,000.
Nagato, while not quite 100,000, was still over 90,000.
To those whose battle power was between 30,000 to 50,000, the strength gap between them and Akira or Nagato was insurmountable. Their battle was one that lesser shinobi had no right to interfere in.
