"This is the end, Sensei!"
"True: Banshō Tenin."
A gigantic meteor spanning several hundred meters in width appears in the sky.
"This is… this is the power of a God!"
Shima and Jiraiya stare at the giant meteor in utter shock.
Gulp…
Jiraiya gulps his saliva.
"He got me! I am out of chakra and unable to run out of its radius."
"Jiraiya-boy! I had prepared precautionary measures for such an emergency!" Fukasaku takes out a teleportation seal. He infuses his remaining chakra into the seal to activate it.
"I won't let you escape!"The Deva Path stretches its right hand in Jiraiya's direction.
Swoosh… swoosh…
He shoots multiple black rods from his palm. The black rod pierces through Jiraiya's legs and arms and pins him on the ground.
Bleurgh…
Jiraiya spews out a mouthful of blood.
"JIRAIYA BOY!"
Granny Shima grabs a black receiver and attempts to pull it out.
"Wait Baa! Don't touch them. It will drain your chakra." Fukasaku's warning falls on deaf ears. The chakra of the teleportation scroll around Jiraiya disperses due to the chakra-draining ability of the black receiver rods.
"I won't leave this place without Jiraiya-boy!" Shima attempts to pull the black receiver out of Jiraiya's body.
Pew…
Another black receiver pierces through Fukasaku's cloak, pinning him to the ground.
A few kilometers away from Konoha,
"I never expected Jiraiya Sensei will force me to such an extent." Nagato stares in the direction of Konoha. Several black receiver rods from the Gedo Statue pierces his back.
"With the fall of other paths, I can focus all my chakra on the Deva Path. This further enhances the abilities of Deva Path."
"Nagato, don't push yourself further. Anymore… and I am afraid you will lose your remaining vitality to this cursed statue and… and…" Konan bites her lips as she stares at the sickly expression of Nagato.
Nagato's emaciated figure is barely holding against the mechanical walker. Half of Nagato's red hairs have turned white and the muscle mass in his body has almost dried up.
Huff… Huff…
Nagato closes his eyes and focuses his attention on the Deva Path.
---------------------
The gigantic meteor closes on top of Fukasaku and Shima.
"Sigh… I didn't even write my will." Jiraiya sighs and closes his eyes. Numerous images of his life flash through his mind as he recalls his memories.
'In the end, I didn't even manage to get the attention of the woman I loved.' Tsunade's image flashes in his mind.
'Perhaps it was a one-sided infatuation on my part. Tsunade only saw me as a friend.'
"Konoha's Toad Sannin, marry me!"
Another voice echoes in his mind. The image of a woman with green eyes and light-brown chin-length hair appears in his mind. The woman has a slender and curvaceous figure.
'No… there was another woman. She was as infatuated with me as I was with Tsunade. No… perhaps her love was even greater than my obsession with Tsunade.'
Jiraiya recalls the conversation he had with that Kunoichi from the Nadeshiko village.
'I was a fool back then and rejected her. But she didn't give up.' Jiraiya recalls the stack of love letters biting the dust in his storage.
"I am somehow able to survive this, then I will pay her a visit." Jiraiya closes his eyes as he slowly loses consciousness due to chakra exhaustion.
"Tailed Beast Rasenshuriken,"
Screech…
A whirling noise passes above Jiraiya's head and collides with the giant meteor.
BOOM…
A massive explosion occurs at the point of impact. A humongous spherical hurricane expands rapidly from the point of impact. The powerful wind blades of the hurricane slice through the giant meteor and grind it to dust. The strong wind blows away the remains of the meteor to a faraway distance.
Rumble… Rumble…
Shockwaves travel through the ground as the explosion of the jutsu blows away the outer layers of the large planetoid figure. A giant hole appears in the White Tai-Chi formation suspended in the sky.
Snap… snap… snap…
Multiple lightning chains holding the planetoid figure snap and dissipate. The giant planetoid lowers in altitude and approaches the ground. It suspends a few ten meters above the ground and stabilizes.
Swoosh…
A figure appears beside Jiraiya and the two toad sages.
"I made it on time!"
Multiple chakra arms pull away the black receiver from Jiraiya and Fukasaku's bodies. The figure holds the three battered people and disappears.
Rumble… Rumble…
Shortly after, shockwaves and explosions blow away the previous position of Jiraiya and the toad sages.
"Things aren't looking good!"
The Deva Path stretches his palm and erects a powerful gravity barrier to repel the shockwaves.
BOOM…
Another explosion occurs within the previous explosion and the Deva Path is sent flying by a powerful force.
BANG…
Deva Path's body blows through multiple hills before embedding into a mountain.
Bzzt… Bzzt…
A thin transparent barrier flickers around the Deva path.
Peng… peng…
The magatama beads on the necklace around Deva Path explode. The transparent barrier dissipates with the shattering of the necklace.
"Such a powerful jutsu!"
The Deva Path drags himself out of the mountain. He floats in mid-air while glancing in the direction of Konoha.
"Looks like someone else besides Izuna Uchiha is capable of such a destructive jutsu. I had to sacrifice this protective amulet to preserve this body." The Deva Path pulls away the remains of the magatama necklace from his neck.
--------------------
Back at the outer perimeter of Konoha,
"Paa… baa… is pervy sage alright?" Naruto holds an unconscious Jiraiya in his arms. He uses the mystic palm technique to heal the flesh wounds on Jiraiya's body.
"He is in a comatose state. Jiraiya-boy pushed his limits by using the second form of Senjutsu without proper mastery. He has exhausted all his chakra and the heavy burden on his body made him lose his consciousness." Fukasaku explains Jiraiya's condition to Naruto.
Naruto heals their wounds and passes Jiraiya to them.
"Take care of the pervy sage. I will deal with this guy!"
Naruto bumps his fist.
Shoom…
An orange cloak shrouds his body as Naruto enters into the Nine Tail chakra cloak mode. Orange pigmentation appears around his eyes as the sclera in his eyes turns into a plus sign.
"This is going to be a tough opponent. I can feel it, Dattebyo!"
"Naruto boy… beware of these black chakra rods. They can drain your chakra and Sage Mode."
"I will!" Naruto nods his head and turns his attention to the horizon. He notices a flying figure slowly approaching Konoha.
Hmm…
The Deva Path narrows its eyes.
"Such a large amount of chakra and overwhelming at that."
It activates its chakra vision to inspect Naruto. The Deva Path notices the Kurama sealed inside Naruto.
ROAR…
Kurama roars at the Deva Path and expels it from Naruto's Mindspace.
"No wonder! He is the jinchuruki of the Nine-tails."
Naruto flickers towards the Deva Path and aims a punch at his head.
Bang…
Naruto's punch is repelled by the gravity barrier around the Deva Path. The Deva Path raises its hand.
"Shinra Tensei,"
It infuses a large amount of chakra and creates a powerful wave of repulsive force. Naruto's second punch stays locked in the air just a few inches away from Deva Path's face.
Tch…
Naruto clicks his tongue and focuses his chakra on his legs and arms.
BANG…
He forcefully withstands the repulsive chakra force and punches the Deva Path in the face. The repulsive force and the impact of the punch create a backlash on the Deva Path and send him flying across the terrain.
Haah…
While in mid-air, the Deva Path uses gravity to withstand the backlash and decelerates.
Swoosh…
Naruto reappears in front of the Deva Path with a Rasengan in his palm.
"Eat this!"
He slams the Rasengan in the Deva Path's gut.
BANG…
Deva path flies across a mountain range and embeds into a hill.
Hmm…
The Deva Path stands up and casually brushes the dust from his cloak.
"You are truly strong Naruto Uzumaki. From all the jinchuruki I have fought so far, you are the only one who had controlled its chakra to such an extent. However…"
The Deva Path raises his palm.
Rumble… rumble…
The mountain range trembles violently. Multiple massive chunks of earth float in the air behind the Deva Path.
Swish…
The Deva Path points his hand toward Naruto.
Swoosh… swoosh… BANG… BANG…
The massive boulders bombard Naruto's position. A cluster of dust and debris rises as the Deva Path lifts the entire mountain range and collapses it on top of Naruto.
"Banshō Tenin,"
The Deva Path closes his fist and crumbles the entire mountain range into a crumbled ball with Naruto trapped within it.
"This isn't enough to take me down, Dattebyo!"
Shoom…
A beam of orange chakra shoots out of the crumbled rocks. The surface of the rocks turns red as Naruto blasts a hole through the containment.
"This is just the starting!"
The Deva Path raises his palm. Multiple massive chunks of earth float out of the ground and surround Naruto.
