“<Summoning Jutsu!>”

Jiraiya bit his thumb and performed the Summoning Jutsu, bringing forth the entire toad family from Mount Myōboku.

Gamabunta, Gamaken, Gamahiro, and Gamabunta’s sons, Gamakichi and Gamatatsu.

Even the little ones were summoned to assist.

Of course, Fukasaku and Shima, the two Sage Toads, were also there.

“Little Jiraiya, why did you summon all of us? I was making dinner for the kids!” Shima asked Jiraiya unhappily.

“Honey, Look at Konoha’s situation. Something serious is happening.” Fukasaku said to Shima.

“Sages, Konoha is facing an unprecedented crisis. I need your help,” Jiraiya said earnestly to Fukasaku and Shima.

“Since Little Jiraiya is in trouble, we won’t just stand by. But let Gamatatsu and Gamakichi go back. They’re too weak for this.” Shima said to Jiraiya.

“Alright. I never intended for them to fight anyway.”

Jiraiya called over Gamatatsu and Gamakichi, telling them to return to Mount Myōboku and keep an eye on Naruto, not letting him run wild.

They absolutely could not let Naruto return to Konoha.

Naruto was currently at Mount Myōboku, learning Sage Mode. Jiraiya had sent him there.

“We understand.” Gamatatsu and Gamakichi immediately left, returning to Mount Myōboku.

Jiraiya’s gaze fell on the Six Paths of Pain. Surrounded, he felt immense pressure.

——

“Hiruzen was killed by his own student. What about you, Jiraiya?” Shin stood on the Hokage Rock, looking down at Jiraiya below.

The plot had changed. Jiraiya might die, or he might not.

Who knew the outcome?

“Tsk, Danzō, that coward, didn’t even show up.”

Shin’s gaze swept the area, but there was no sign of Danzō, not even a single Root member. Danzō always claimed to love Konoha, but where was that love now?

Shin despised his hypocrisy.

A selfish man, yet he insisted on labeling himself a patriot. He was just greedy for the Hokage position.

“The fight has begun.”

Shin’s eyes were fixed on Jiraiya and the Six Paths of Pain. Jiraiya’s combat strength was not weak, especially with the assistance of the two Sage Toads.

In Sage Mode, Jiraiya was practically unmatched among Kage-level shinobi. The boost from Sage Mode was immense.

However, Nagato’s strength was at least Super Kage level; unleashing that level of power was no problem for him.

In a fight, Nagato was undoubtedly stronger. But in terms of combat experience, Jiraiya was far more seasoned.

Nagato had limited battle experience. Jiraiya, on the other hand, had fought countless battles, big and small. Nagato couldn’t compare.

So, Shin was particularly looking forward to their fight.

“Is Nagato getting cocky?” Shin observed closely. He saw Nagato just watching as Jiraiya entered Sage Mode, not even trying to stop him.

After entering Sage Mode, Jiraiya’s strength would increase by more than just a Little. Sage Mode was basically a cheat.

Nagato was a bit arrogant. He felt that even with Jiraiya at full power, it wouldn’t matter. Nagato didn’t care.

There was also a bit of respect for Jiraiya—his final respect. Let him use his full strength and die gloriously.

It was also a nod to their past teacher-student relationship.

Regardless of the reason, in Shin’s view, Nagato’s actions were clearly foolish.

“He doesn’t even have my strength, yet he dares to mess around?” Shin scoffed. Did Nagato think anyone could pull that off? He should know better.

——

“<Sage Art: Needle Jizō!>”

Jiraiya’s hair hardened like needles and shot towards the Six Paths of Pain.

Shin wanted to make a comment about Jiraiya’s potential for baldness, but he knew Jiraiya’s hair would regenerate.

“<Shinra Tensei!>”

This kind of wide-area attack was blocked by Shinra Tensei. All of Jiraiya’s attacks were repelled by the repulsive force.

Jiraiya wasn’t surprised. He had expected this. The Akatsuki’s leader wasn’t easily defeated—especially since he was Jiraiya’s own student.

Speaking of teaching students, Jiraiya’s teaching ability was probably the best in the Shinobi world.

None of Jiraiya’s students were weak.

If Yahiko hadn’t died early, he would have achieved great things. But his personality doomed him.

“<Sage Art: Giant Rasengan!>”

Jiraiya used immense Sage Art chakra to form a Giant Rasengan, dozens of times larger than a normal Rasengan, and slammed it towards the Six Paths of Pain.

“<Blocking Technique Absorption Seal!>”

The Preta Path stepped forward, intending to absorb this powerful Ninjutsu. And it did—But after absorbing it, it unfortunately turned into a stone frog.

Jiraiya’s attack was infused with Sage Art chakra, not ordinary chakra. Without Sage Mode, absorbing Sage Art chakra had this result.

In the initial exchange, the Preta Path was defeated.

Defeating one Preta Path didn’t make Jiraiya happy. He could see who was the strongest.

Actually, The Preta Path’s ability was very strong, but if it encountered Sage Art. There was nothing to be done. Even Six Paths Madara, as a Ten-Tails Jinchūriki, could be injured by Sage Art, let alone Preta Path.

——

After defeating the Preta Path, Jiraiya instantly appeared behind the Naraka Path, kicking it.

In Sage Mode, his strength and speed increased dozens of times. A large hole was kicked into the Naraka Path’s body.

Of course, this wasn’t important. The Naraka Path was just a puppet—it didn’t affect its movements.

“<Sage Art: Great Flame Bullet!>”

Jiraiya didn’t let up.

After kicking the Naraka Path away, he immediately followed up with a Great Flame Bullet, incinerating it completely.

By a stroke of luck, Jiraiya had defeated the Naraka Path.

This was fortunate for Jiraiya.

The Naraka Path’s ability was to summon the King of Hell and repair the other Six Paths of Pain. If it hadn’t been destroyed, real trouble would have awaited Jiraiya.
