Chapter 342 - Found You

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Paper Shuriken cut through the high air in an arc, hitting the Earth Dragon's raised head, making a clanging sound.

"Whirr~" Immediately after, Number Four Konan opened her hand, using the brief time difference when the Earth Dragon blocked the view from its back to release countless paper pieces. In the blink of an eye, the overwhelming paper pieces wrapped the Earth Dragon.

"Chirp!"

"Boom!"

A huge explosion sounded in the sky above Rain Hidden Village, a flash of fire appeared, and the shockwave that spread out directly pushed away the nearby dark clouds.

Sunlight sprinkled down, and Number Four Konan's body was constantly formed by paper pieces. She frowned.

The enemy was gone. Before the explosion, the two people disappeared from the Earth Dragon's back.

Such speed.

Have they already infiltrated the village? She quickly descended. Being in the high air easily exposed her target. Once the opponent had a super long-range attack, she would be very passive.

"Whoosh!"

As soon as she landed, Number Four Konan noticed the enemy approaching at an extremely fast speed. Unable to avoid the attack, she activated Paper Dance. Her body had just begun to turn into paper pieces when she was touched, losing control of her whole body, and the technique was forced to stop.

"Thump!" She slammed her head into the ground, instantly smashing a dent in the concrete floor. A large bump swelled up on her forehead. Such a forceful impact—she wasn't made of steel—immediately made her dizzy and unable to even think.

"Sorry," Utakata said politely, reaching out to release bubbles to contain the dizzy Number Four Konan, returning the palm to Lin Ke, and looking at the building not far away.

Deva Path Pain stood high up, coldly overlooking the intruders below.

"Chirp!" The invisible Summoned Beast chameleon suddenly crashed over.

"Thump!"

Utakata was instantly hit against the iron pipe behind him, then crushed into a stream of water that merged into the sewage on the ground.

A Water Clone?

The Chakra very similar to the Six Tails Jinchuriki, the exact same technique, if he didn't know Orochimaru was already dead...

Deva Path Pain thought to himself. Below, the splitting dog that had been summoned was already pouncing on another gawking kid.

Separating a palm to directly defeat Konan was a very dangerous technique.

"It's been a long time since I've had to do it myself."

Lin Ke wasn't in a hurry to let Shadow act. He cracked his wrists, looked at the approaching splitting dog, and smiled.

This feeling of Chakra, it's a technique that the Konoha rare beast is good at.

Deva Path Pain clearly sensed a large amount of Chakra erupting from the small boy's body. The body instantly disappeared from the spot, and the splitting dog, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, was directly grabbed by the scalp with one hand and thrown into the sky.

The huge force sent the splitting dog soaring into the high air in the next second.

The Animal Path's attack wasn't over yet. The giant crab spewed out Foam Wild Wave to block Utakata's return for support. The Summoning Jutsu formula on the wall flashed, and the bull stomped on the wall, causing it to collapse. Before the summoning smoke had dissipated, it crashed over with zero delay.

"Crack~"

Lin Ke held the bull's horns with both hands, but his body was pushed out more than ten meters due to insufficient weight, coming to the side of the wall.

"Crack!" With one punch, the bull's head caved in on the spot.

Having opened up to the fifth gate of the Eight Gates Formation, coupled with his already exceptionally strong body, kneading steel was an easy task. Even the bull Summoned Beast, enhanced by the Animal Path's ability, instantly had its head smashed into its chest, turning into smoke with a bang.

At the same time, the Asura Path, lurking in the shadows, reached out and hugged Lin Ke, and then—

The enemy's head fell off.

"Bang!" After the head fell and rolled once, the body reorganized. Because Lin Ke's head was facing backward, his body also faced the enemy. His feet just happened to be on the ground, and with a forceful push, he punched the Asura Path's head, blasting it apart.

The headless Corpse swayed for a moment before crashing to the ground with a dull metallic thud.

Lin Ke looked up at the Animal Path not far away, raised a forefinger, then made a hand seal and flicked his hand.

"Chi! Chi! Chi!" Several invisible blades flew through the air.

[Sand Ninja Village's Wind Release Secret Technique] Nagato quietly observed.

The Preta Path jumped out of the pipe and stood in front of the Animal Path, opening his hands.

"Pfft!" The next second, he was cut into pieces by the Wind Blade, and the Animal Path behind him, unable to dodge in time, lost an arm.

"My Ninjutsu isn't so easy to absorb." Lin Ke maintained a calm smile.

His Ninjutsu wasn't simulated by Chakra; whether it was Earth Release or Wind Release, it was all the same.

The blades launched by the Wind Blade were genuinely made of wind, so how could they be absorbed?

The Sealing Technique [Sealing Technique Absorption Seal] mastered by the Preta Path was, in essence, an advanced application of Chakra absorption. Conventional Ninjutsu was made of Chakra. Even Wind Release, which used natural wind, required Chakra to maintain and propel it. Once the Chakra was absorbed into the body, of course, all techniques would be useless.

However, his mutated Ninjutsu was simple and crude, not normal Ninjutsu at all. After being consumed once, it directly produced the effect instead of simulating it with Chakra, so there was no question of Chakra being absorbed.

Whether it was Number Four Konan, the Asura Path, or the Preta Path, they were all killed by the element of surprise.

[I need the Naraka Path to awaken the spare body.]

Deva Path Pain landed opposite Utakata. After a few rounds, the Asura Path and Preta Path, used for probing, were eliminated, the Animal Path lost an arm, and the man suspected to be the Six Tails Jinchuriki also eliminated the Summoned Beast crab and bird used for obstruction.

The intruder's strength was much greater than imagined, but...

He would never be a match for God.

Lin Ke calmly raised two fingers, and his body disappeared from the spot.

...

Rain Hidden Village, in the dim Base.

"Huff~"

Nagato, who was closing his eyes and controlling Pain to fight the intruder, breathed a little more rapidly than usual.

[The intruder seems to know the Human Path's ability.]

[No, to be precise, they seem to know all my abilities very well. Is it a traitor?]

[The Animal Path's body has been destroyed, and the spare body still needs—]

He suddenly looked towards the door. His excellent perception allowed him to sense something approaching the room, even...

Already infiltrated.

Due to the main body's distraction, the Human Path, lacking the protection of the Preta Path, was hit by Utakata's bubbles, exploding into nothing but scattered bones. At the same time, Nagato discovered that the troublesome brat had actually disengaged from the battlefield and was rapidly approaching.

Is it a technique used to search for targets? Or a Summoned Beast?

Nagato controlled the Deva Path, made from Yahiko's body, to retreat, then focused most of his energy on his main body.

"Squeak~" Soon, the door was opened.

"Found you, Nagato."

Lin Ke, having deactivated the Eight Gates Formation Technique, stood at the door, the outside light shining in, exposing Nagato's pale skin and sunken cheeks to the corridor's light.

"General," he said cheerfully.
