----------------------------
"I am still lacking compared to you, Sensei!" Konan responds in an empathetic tone.
'Sensei is still as powerful as ever. He didn't even break a sweat to shrug off one of my most powerful jutsu. But he is up against a God. Jiraiya Sensei doesn't stand a chance.'
Konan closes her eyes.
'Nagato, I will leave the rest to you.'
Jiraiya turns his attention to the Deva Path.
"Hair Needle Senbon Hell,"
Jiraiya hardens his hair to the extreme and shoots a barrage of razor-thin hairs toward the Six Paths of Pain.
'Damn it! I still need a few more seconds to complete the jutsu.' The expression of Deva Path turns ugly.
Swoosh…
The Giant Panda jumps in front of the Deva Path. Its skin hardens as the giant panda blocks the strike for the Deva Path.
Peng… Peng…
The needle punctures through the hardened skin of the giant panda. They also smash the nearby boulders into dust. The giant panda turns into a porcupine of white hairs.
Poof…
The extensive damage dispels the panda summon.
"I got you!"
Whoosh…
Jiraiya instantly flickers in front of Deva Path with his fists coated with chakra. Jiraiya's fist almost touches Deva Path's face.
"It's done. SHINRA TENSEI!"
Fwoosh…
With the Deva path as a center, a burst of powerful repulsive force acts upon Jiraiya's body.
Shoom…
The powerful repulsive force instantly pushes Jiraiya back.
"Oh no!"
Jiraiya infuses chakra into his legs and stabs them into the ground. The repulsive force continues to push him backward. Jiraiya leaves trails on the ground as he continues to get pushed backward. His back arches backward at an unnatural angle, and he almost tumbles down. josei
"Damn it!"
Jiraiya infuses more chakra into his arms and legs. He kicks the ground and forcefully straightens his body. He extends his hair to shield his body from the flying dust and debris shooting toward him.
BANG…
Jiraiya punches the ground to forcefully withstand the repulsive force from the Shinra Tensei.
After a few seconds, the effect of jutsu ends.
Huff…
Huff…
Jiraiya and Deva Path pants in exhaustion as each of them has been pushed to their limits.
Whoosh…
Whoosh…
Fukasaku and Shima jump on Jiraiya's shoulders.
"Are you alright, Jiraiya-boy?"
"I… I am alright! Just slightly overexerted my chakra." Fukasaku and Shima stare at the condition of the ground in front of them.
The previous jutsu has forcefully created a distance of almost a hundred meters between the Deva Path and Jiraiya. The ground in front of the Deva Path has been uprooted completely, creating a small ravine.
Ptui…
Jiraiya spits out some sand from his mouth.
"That was a close call or else it would have sent me flying out of Konoha's borders."
He slowly stands up and dusts off his clothes.
"That was one hell of a jutsu." Jiraiya cracks his neck and gets ready to engage in battle.
"That's… that's im… impossible!"
Konan stares at Jiraiya with wide eyes.
"How… how could Jiraiya Sensei be so strong?"
Deva Path also warily glances at Jiraiya.
'Jiraiya sensei's combat strength is a notch above the one mentioned in the intel. Shinra Tensei should have exhausted, if not injured, him to some extent. But he is completely fine even after a point-blank Shinra Tensei.'
"Oh! Surprised, aren't you?" Jiraiya makes his standard pose and remarks.
"The future generation has already left an old-timer like me who stopped training a long time ago in the dust," Jiraiya recalls his scuffles and spars against Izuna.
'I got demolished, alright!'
"But as a senior and elder, I ought to maintain a level of strength to garner respect from the next generation. So, I restarted my training a few years ago and even I am astonished at my progress. These old bones of mine can still fight a battle."
Jiraiya extends his hand forward to complete his version of the T-pose.
Crack…
A flash of shock runs past his spine. Sound of bones snapping rings across Jiraiya's body.
"My back… my back… It must be during the time I almost broke my spine."
Sigh…
"You are still as childish as ever!" Fukasaku shakes his head.
Slap…
Shima slaps a nature energy talisman on his back to heal his back.
"Thank you, baa!"
"Don't act so recklessly like last time. You almost remind me of Paa…"
"Huh!" Fukasaku turns to Shima.
"How come I am reckless? I was always a calm and composed toad. Wasn't it my composure that impressed you at our first meeting?" Fukasaku argues with Shima.
"Calm and composed, my ass! You were so wild and brazen back then. You even dared to steal Great Toad Sage's underwear…" Shima responds to him in kind.
Fukasaku and Shima bickers with each other.
"…"
"Umm… Baa… Paa… can we focus our attention on the fight?" Jiraiya speechlessly stares at the two old frogs.
"It's all your fault!"
Smack…
Smack…
Both of them smack Jiraiya's head with their stick. Two bumps appear on Jiraiya's head. Tears flow from Jiraiya's eyes as he speaks meekly.
"But I… I didn't even do anything."
'It was you two who started to bicker with each other.' Jiraiya adds in his mind.
"It was all your teachings that made him this way!" Shima harrumphs at Fukasaku. An angry tick appears on Fukasaku's forehead as he snaps.
"It must be the effect of your poisonous food."
"Huh! My food is poisonous, you say. The food which I prepare with all my love and heart harms your mind, huh! Then from this day onwards, there will be no food for you in mount Myoboku." Shima's eyes turn red from rage.
"Umm… shouldn't we focus our attention on the battle?" Jiraiya weakly reminds them.
"Shut up!" Both of them yell in his ear at the same time.
PENG… PENG… PENG…
Suddenly, the floating orb of energy on top of Pain's head reacts.
Fwoosh…
It immediately expands to the size of a house.
Fukasaku and Shima stop their bickering and focus their attention on the giant floating orb.
Shiing…
Fukasaku activates his Sage eyes and glances at the giant orb of chakra.
"This orb… it's rapidly absorbing the Nature energy from the surroundings."
The color of the orb changes to purple after it expands in volume.
Jiraiya prepares to attack the orb.
"Jiraiya boy, wait! If you attack it now, the nature energy inside it will turn unstable and it will explode with a force strong enough to blow Konoha to smithereens despite Izuna boy's barrier. Let's wait and see."
After absorbing enough nature energy, the orb slowly shrinks into a small palm-sized black orb. The palm-sized black orb seeps into the ground.
Rumble… Rumble…
Soon, the ground beneath them trembles violently. A massive black Tai Chi fuinjutsu formation spanning several tens of kilometers appears beneath Konoha.
Bzzt…. Crackle… crackle…
White lightning flickers across the eight floating planetary bodies. A massive white Tai Chi circle appears in the airspace of Konoha. The eight planetary bodies occupy a node each on the giant Tai-chi formation.
"Mugen Ten Shin: Chibaku Tensei,"
RUMBLE… RUMBLE… RIP… RIP…
The ground around Konoha split apart. The black Tai Chi symbol applies a powerful repulsive force on the surroundings.
"Jiraiya boy, get out of this formation. We don't have any time to waste." Fukasaku urgently urges Jiraiya.
"Got it!"
Jiraiya flickers away from the outer perimeter of Konoha. He reaches a safe distance away from the giant Tai Chi formation and witnesses the scene.
The White Tai Chi formation pulls the surroundings of Konoha towards itself. Massive chunks of earth rip out of the outer perimeter of Konoha and float in mid-air.
"This can't be!" Jiraiya and the toads' eyes widen in disbelief.
RUMBLE… RUMBLE… RIP…
A massive spherical chunk of earth constituting Konoha splits away from the ground and levitates in the air. The powerful protective barrier around Konoha keeps it in the form of a single landmass.
Bzzt… Bzzt… Crackle…
Multiple black and white lightning bolts leap out of the black and white Taichi formations. These lightning bolts strike the sphere containing Konoha and isolate it in a lighting prison.
Rumble…. Rumble…
Multiple beams of chakra shoot out of the eight floating planetary bodies and strike the barrier around Konoha. Some small cracks appear in the barrier.
BANG… BANG….
The rocks, dust, and debris from the planetary bodies separate and surround Konoha.
Bang… bang…
After a few minutes, the planetary bodies dissipate, completely encasing Konoha in the core of a massive heavenly body. The planetary body levitates in the center of the Tai Chi formation.
The rest of the Akatsuki and In-Yōmembers who have escaped from the previous cataclysmic event stare at the giant sphere with a disbelieving expression.
