Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

Chapter 765: Come on, Let's Fight A Battle of Attrition

On the top of the hill, the surging flames and shattering thunder were blown quickly like bubbles under Deva Path Pain’s Shinra Tensei, revealing a bare hilltop.

On hilltop, Nagato sitting in a wheelchair, with Naraka Path, Human Path, Asura Path, and the ‘dead’ Preta Path, all disappeared without a trace.

Only Deva Path Pain floats in the air like a superman, with his orange hair fluttering in the wind under the sunlight, exuding a strong presence!

Kanpū stood at the foot of the hill, looking at the Flying Thunder God Kunai thrown out by Deva Path Pain, sighing regretfully. If his slap had landed solidly just now, Deva Path Pain would be dealt with. And the remaining Pain are just stray little kittens, which can be dealt with in no time!

As for the last Nagato, although he possessed the power of the Six Paths, just look at his current skeletal appearance and thin, emaciated figure!

‘It’s a pity that my slap wasn’t good enough!’

Kanpū secretly thought.

“Gekko Kanpū, it ends here.” Deva Path Pain slowly descended from the mid-air, and his black windbreaker rustled in the mountain wind.

“Really?”

Rumble!

With the thunderous roar, dense and blue thunder covered the entire blade like earthworms!

“Konoha-Style – Thunder Dance!”

Swoosh!

Kanpū leaped with great strength, and the blue sword shadow left a long trail in the air, suddenly appearing in front of the Deva Path Pain.

“Bansho Ten’in!”

Deva Path Pain extended his hand towards Kanpū expressionlessly, and then swiped to the side. Kanpū’s body was instantly pulled by the strong gravity, tumbling along with the gesture.

‘Bansho Ten’in can also be used like this?’

When he landed, Kanpū rolled skillfully to avoid a second impact, but his expression was a little uncomfortable.

Kanpū had always thought that Bansho Ten’in could only be used to attract things to Deva Path Pain himself, but he didn't expect it could be directed elsewhere.

‘Isn’t this cheating?’

Kanpū held the Kusanagi Sword Sword in his right hand and formed hand seal with his left hand: “Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!”

Bang~ Bang~ Bang~ ……

Light smoke exploded, and thirty shadow clones appeared on both sides of Kanpū instantly.

With Kanpū’s current Chakra Reserves, creating hundreds of shadow clones in one go was not a problem. However, facing Deva Path Pain, ordinary shadow clones are useless. Only Sage Mode’s shadow clones is strong enough to pose a threat to Deva Path Pain and force him to continuously use his powerful techniques!

And with Kanpū’s current limit, only 30 Sage Mode’s shadow clones can be created at the same time.

“One by one, go up!” Kanpū waved his hand.

“Do you want to use the crowd tactic to wear down Nagato?”

“What a clever devil.”

“Go on.”

Konoha-Style – Thunder Dance!

One Sage Mode’s shadow clone boldly rushed forward, only to be ruthlessly thrown by Deva Path Pain’s Bansho Ten’in, exploding into smoke on the hillside.

Then, the second Sage Mode’s shadow clone also rushed over.

Thirty Sage Mode’s shadow clones lined up and rushed forward one after another with their big swords.

Deva Path Pain stretches out, stretches out, and stretches out again emotionlessly!

“Shinra Tensei!”

Boom!

“Bansho Ten’in!”

Bang!

“Shinra Tensei!”

Boom!

“Bansho Ten’in!”

Bang!

Kanpū remembered that the cooldown for Deva Path Pain’s Shinra Tensei is at least five seconds. As for Bansho Ten’in, he doesn’t know, but it should be the similar. Therefore, in order to achieve the goal of consumption, the attacks of the thirty Sage Mode’s shadow clones were timed with intervals of 2.5 seconds, fitting perfectly within the five-second cooldown for Deva Path Pain’s Shinra Tensei and Bansho Ten’in.

(0 seconds for Shinra Tensei, 2.5 seconds for Bansho Ten’in, 5 seconds for Shinra Tensei, 7.5 seconds for Bansho Ten’in…)

Kanpū stood behind, watching one after another Sage Mode’s shadow clones rush up to their deaths. It was a case of it hurts him more than it does to his clones. Fortunately, he is a resolute, emotionless Shinobi with great willpower. He calmly controlled his emotions, and every time he saw Deva Path Pain eliminated a Sage Mode’s shadow clones, he summoned another one, so that the number of Sage Mode’s shadow clones can be maintained at thirty.

In midair, Deva Path Pain repeats his actions like a puppet, annihilating a Sage Mode’s shadow clones every 2.5 seconds on average. However, there was no joy in Deva Path Pain’s heart!

Seeing Kanpū’s shameless action, it was clear that he wanted to engage in a battle of attrition. If he didn't make a change, Kanpū would definitely engage him in a three-day and three-night battle!

However, Nagato knows how his main body’s physical fitness is, so he couldn't afford a battle of attrition!

Apart from that, Deva Path Pain also felt the shock of a crack in the wall!

‘Why, why Gekko Kanpū’s attacks happen to coincide with the cooldown of my skills?’

‘Was it a coincidence, or did he have information on this as well?’

‘No outsider should have known about these information!’

‘Jiraiya, who sneak into the base, wouldn’t know, Shisui of the Body Flicker who abducted the White Zetsu’s clone also won’t know, only Konan…’

‘Wait!’

‘Is it Konan?’

‘No, impossible!’

‘Konan will never betray me!’

But ruling out information leakage, only ‘coincidence' remained as an explanation!

At this moment, although Deva Path Pain has no expression on his face, he felt nauseated as if he had eaten feces inside!

Fortunately, he wasn't the only ‘person' fighting.

At this moment, in the bright sky, small black dots descended from the sky one after another black, it is the long-range missile attack of Asura Path!

……

Twenty kilometers away from the hill, in the depths of the dense forest.

Konan floated in mid-air, and the Explosive Tags in her sleeves flows outwards like running water, and then, they folds into paper cranes under the control of her Chakra, and fly in all directions and exploding.

Boom! Boom! Boom……

Under the continuous explosion, the earth trembles and cracks spread like a crazy spider web!

The towering trees on the ground were blown to pieces. The forest fires raging, and the hot blush spread out like ripples in the surging shockwaves produced by the explosion.

Shisui, Tenzo, Itachi, and the other members of the sixth team retreated in an orderly manner while using Wind Release and Water Release to block the flames.

Under the explosive attack of this level, even Tenzo’s Wood Release is powerless!

“What’s going on with this Konan?”

“From the start until now, she has used at least three hundred thousand Explosive Tags!”

“Why does she have so many Explosive Tags?”

“When did the Shinobi World have such a wealthy woman?”

“Vice-captain Shisui, what should we do next?”

Kanpū is not present, so the one with the highest authority here was Shisui. Everyone looked to this backbone for guidance.

Shisui looked around at his teammates, then looked at Itachi, who has worried expression on his face, and finally, looked towards Konan, who was floating in the distance but surrounded by countless paper cranes and the red glow. He knew he had to take action.
