Chapter 506: Ino vs. Tendo Pain
"Super Beast Scroll!" Sai formed the "Tiger" seal. The ink bird, spurred by Yin Release chakra, transformed from illusion to reality, spread its wings, and soared into the sky.
The order Sai had received was to fly to Tendo Pain's side. He didn't ask why, nor did he think about the consequences. He was just following orders, a task he was very familiar with.
His mind was clear, without a hint of hesitation. Disregarding the strength difference between them, he drove the ink bird alone toward Tendo Pain in the sky.
What is this nameless ninja trying to do? Tendo Pain glanced at him—just a glance. He didn't use Almighty Push. The sheer pressure of the Rinnegan was almost enough to shatter the ink bird.
Both were manifestations of Yin Release chakra, but the level of the Rinnegan compared to the ink bird was like heaven and earth.
The ink bird's right wing reverted to black ink. Sai lost his footing and fell. His expression was blank, but his reaction was fast. He grabbed the ink bird's neck with one hand and continued to urge it to fly upward.
"You're looking for death!" A tangible shockwave of spiritual pressure once again flashed from Tendo Pain's eyes.
This time, Sai was prepared. He preemptively controlled the ink bird to lower its altitude, narrowly avoiding a direct hit.
He charged twice, and both times he was repelled by Tendo Pain.
Seeing that he was still a dozen meters away from Tendo Pain and couldn't get any closer, he took out Ino's Flying Thunder God kunai from his waist pouch and sent a signal.
The next second, Ino used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport to his side and looked up at the high and mighty Tendo Pain.
You cannot stop me!
I'd like to see you try!
Their gazes met. No words were spoken, but their thoughts were clear to each other.
Ino estimated the distance, used Sai's shoulder as a stepping stone, and leaped high into the air. She threw a kunai at the levitating Tendo Pain and then quickly formed hand seals.
"Shadow Clone Shuriken!"
"This move again?"
Tendo Pain remembered their battle in the underworld and knew that Ino was skilled at using this move to conceal her Flying Thunder God kunai. His Super Almighty Push had accumulated chakra to its limit. Attacking these kunai now would be like using a cannon to shoot a mosquito.
He was extremely, almost pathologically, insistent on unleashing the Super Almighty Push. He didn't want to give up this opportunity to "make the world feel pain." Enduring the sharp pain from his chakra pathways, he formed another one-handed seal. A giant stone panda abruptly appeared in front of him, blocking the rain of shadow clone shuriken.
He didn't care if the kunai were real or fake, if they would collide in mid-air or if she was playing some other trick. He would just block them all.
With a series of clanging sounds, the numerous kunai hit the sturdy stone panda. Most were deflected, while a few fell to the ground along with the stone panda.
In 0.1 seconds, Ino sensed her Flying Thunder God formula. She instantly disappeared and reappeared on the stone panda's shoulder. With a flick of her hand, she caught the Flying Thunder God kunai she had hidden among the shadow clone shuriken.
At this moment, she was less than three meters from Tendo Pain. His ripple-patterned Rinnegan even seemed to reflect her image.
Tendo Pain moved with incredible speed. With a flick of his wrist, he shot out a black rod and at the same time dispelled the stone panda summoning.
He had predicted Ino's next few moves. Unless Ino returned to the ink bird, she had no other Flying Thunder God markers and would no longer pose a threat to him.
Gods could fly in the sky, but ninja could not.
Ino was in mid-air with nothing to push off from. Faced with his black rod, she had no way to dodge. Retreat was her only option.
Ino did not retreat. Sai, who was falling, drew a skylark. The skylark flew to Ino's feet, giving her another foothold.
"Water Release: Water Severing Wave!" In mid-air, she used the Second Hokage's signature technique. A silver line of water shot straight for Tendo Pain's chest.
They were too close. Tendo Pain had no way to dodge. He had no choice but to divert a portion of the repulsive force from his Super Almighty Push to forcibly repel the Water Severing Wave.
Even if it was just a small portion of the repulsive force, after shattering the Water Severing Wave, the remaining force still pushed Ino dozens of meters horizontally through the air.
"It's all over. Your efforts are meaningless."
"It's not over yet!"
Ino didn't have the ability to form Truth-Seeking Orbs, didn't want to reveal her Exploding Clay secret technique, and couldn't fly by stepping on her own feet.
She held three kunai in her left hand and three in her right. Her left hand threw to the right, and her right hand threw to the left. From front, back, left, right, up, and down, she threw kunai at Tendo Pain from a full six directions.
Tendo Pain, who was trying to control the chakra of his Super Almighty Push, was disdainful. Is it just the Flying Thunder God? Don't you have any new tricks?
He formed another black rod. He infused chakra into his eyes, and the entire world seemed to move in slow motion in his Rinnegan. He held the black rod in his right hand, and with a series of parries, strikes, and slashes, he easily deflected the six kunai with superb speed.
He sneered, looking at Ino as if to say, What other tricks do you have?
Ino pointed down.
"What?" Tendo Pain realized something was wrong and quickly looked down.
He saw Choza Akimichi, who had turned into a giant dozens of meters tall. At this moment, the incredibly fat giant used all his strength to throw a figure like a cannonball.
A golden flash streaked past. Tendo Pain's Rinnegan captured the figure. He knew a new enemy had appeared behind him.
Without thinking, he thrust the black rod behind him.
The move missed. The enemy behind him had suddenly disappeared.
In a tenth of a second, the Rinnegan saw the enemy's whereabouts. The enemy had instantly appeared in front of him. He flicked his finger, and the black rod traced a graceful arc, stabbing toward the enemy in front of him. Because of the new enemy's appearance, he had subconsciously paid less attention to Ino, who had appeared behind him as he flicked the black rod.
Swapping positions? Nagato, controlling Tendo Pain, couldn't figure it out. There was clearly no Flying Thunder God marker behind him. How did Ino get there?
The enemy's speed was too fast. The Rinnegan could react, but Nagato, controlling Tendo Pain remotely, could no longer make an effective response.
He subconsciously looked at the black rod he had flicked out and saw that it was being held by a suddenly appearing young blond man.
The young man had blond hair and blue eyes. The ceremonial robe with the words "Fourth Hokage" written on it was so dazzling at this moment.
"Flying Thunder God: Mutual Revolve Technique!" Ino and Minato Namikaze executed an extremely beautiful coordination a thousand meters in the air. The two, holding each other's Flying Thunder God kunai, swapped positions like butterflies fluttering through flowers. Their speed hadn't surpassed the Rinnegan, but it had surpassed Nagato, the controller. At this moment, taking advantage of the fact that he hadn't reacted, they swapped positions again and simultaneously unleashed their killer moves.
"Giant Rasengan!"
"Giant Rasengan!"
