I've Already Confronted the Five Kage, and the System Just Arrived!

Chapter 209: Chapter 209



Konan didn't follow Nagato's command.

All along, she had silently followed behind Yahiko and Nagato, treating their ideals as her own. Although she had grown accustomed to following Nagato's orders, no matter what he did, she had always assisted without objection.

But at this moment, she had to go against Nagato's will.

Rustle~~~

A large amount of paper quickly lifted the bed beneath Nagato. Ignoring Nagato's attempts to dissuade her, Konan spread a pair of paper wings behind her, taking flight with the bed and returning at full speed, disregarding any exhaustion.

She vaguely sensed it.

Behind her, not too far away, a suffocatingly overwhelming presence was rapidly approaching.

Gensou, having confirmed Nagato's location, immediately pursued.

This left the battlefield, already ravaged and sunken by more than ten meters compared to its original state, in ruins.

Not far away, on Mount Katsuragi, Hotaru, Utakata, and Tonbei exchanged looks after witnessing the entire process.

Although the battle just now hadn't lasted long, the incredibly shocking battle scene was deeply engraved in their minds.

"Humans... can reach such a level?" Utakata looked at the battlefield, which had transformed into a massive crater in an instant, and the bubbles he liked to blow were now completely forgotten.

Tonbei also stared blankly at the battlefield for a long time.

The power displayed by the man fighting Gensou far exceeded that of any jinchuriki or warriors they had encountered before.

Even combined, they couldn't match it.

Yet this person had been utterly defeated by Gensou.

Tonbei, who had lived for over sixty years, suddenly found the world he knew becoming unfamiliar.

"Has the world always been like this, or was that just an exception?"

He couldn't help but question in his heart.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Hotaru, on the other hand, wasn't thinking so deeply.

Seeing Gensou unleash his overwhelming power, her eyes lit up, and the only thoughts in her mind were: "Gensou-sama is so cool! Gensou-sama is amazing!"

The three of them shared similar thoughts.

Others also noticed the battle.

A squad of ten Mist ninja trackers stood at a small hill not far from the battlefield.

If Pain was the big fish that Gensou had deliberately lured in with bait, then they were the small fry attracted to the scene.

"Thank goodness!!!"

Looking at the battlefield, which was still shrouded in smoke, the elite Mist ninja squad fell into a long silence, feeling a deep sense of relief.

Luckily, they had arrived a little later and hadn't taken the bait, instead watching as the much larger fish got hooked and, after a struggle, died a final death.

"Are those two even human?"

The Mist ninja squad, assigned to chase the jinchuriki of the Six-Tails, were all highly skilled. Yet, even from such a distance, the battle had sent chills down their spines, making them too terrified to take another step forward. Their fear and astonishment were evident.

At that moment, not just one, but several people felt that the two fighters were something more than human, something much stronger than even tailed beasts.

Especially the one who had emerged victorious!

The captain of the tracker squad had some suspicions about the identity of the two, but seeing the demoralized state of his subordinates, he decided not to add fuel to the fire.

"Sir," one of his men eventually asked, "what should we do next?"

The captain glanced at the battlefield ahead, his eyelid twitching as he shook his head. "Change direction and continue tracking. This place... isn't somewhere we should be."

The Mist ninja, not wanting to be caught in the crossfire, wisely decided to retreat. Underground, a White Zetsu who had witnessed the entire battle stood there, dumbfounded, first in disbelief and then in complete shock.

"A disaster has struck!" White Zetsu murmured to itself.

No one could have expected it-Pain, who wielded the Rinnegan and had been undefeated all these years, had fallen here.

And the one who did it was none other than Gensou.

It was clear that Gensou had set a trap for Pain by waiting there.

"Inform Madara-sama of this immediately!"

The fact that Gensou had suddenly attacked the Akatsuki was already a significant event.

But the more pressing issue was that Gensou was now hunting Nagato, and if the Rinnegan changed hands, it would spell disaster.

Realizing this, White Zetsu wasted no time and quickly moved.

But it hadn't gotten far.

Boom!

A huge crack appeared above it.

White Zetsu looked up, and before it could fully understand what was happening, a hand grabbed its head, instantly rendering it unconscious.

"To avoid any unnecessary complications, you'd best stay here," Gensou's shadow clone said, pulling out a sealing scroll and skillfully sealing White Zetsu within it.

Meanwhile, several other shadow clones were performing the same actions elsewhere.

Gensou knew that as the leader of the Akatsuki, and now hunting the jinchuriki of the Six- Tails, Nagato was bound to have White Zetsu spies gathering intelligence around him.

While pursuing Nagato, Gensou had purposely summoned a few shadow clones to take care of the White Zetsu spies to prevent them from calling for reinforcements and causing unnecessary trouble.

As for the Mist ninja, they were completely ignored.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Not long after, the shadow clones returned with their spoils, and Gensou collected the sealing scrolls, dispelled the clones, and absorbed their memories.

Confirming there were no stragglers left, he looked ahead, and his target was already within

sight.

"Loyalty is admirable, but in the end, it's just futile resistance."

Gensou said quietly, clapping his hands together.

"Sage Art: Water Style: Rain Slash!"

Pitter-patter~~~

The once-clear sky was suddenly filled with dark clouds, and a fine rain began to fall over a

vast area.

Ahead, Konan, who found herself within the rain's range, looked up, her face grim as she

realized the rain was man-made.

She raised her hand, and a large amount of paper flew into the air, forming a massive paper umbrella to shield herself and Nagato from the rain.

Normally, paper feared water.

But Konan's paper had been specially treated to be waterproof.

Its only weakness was oil.

After completing this, Konan was about to speed up their escape.

However, she quickly noticed that the paper umbrella above her head was becoming thinner

under the impact of the rain.

It wasn't an issue with the paper's quality, but rather, the chakra infused within it was

steadily weakening.

"There's something wrong with this rain!"

Konan realized something was off.

Nagato also looked up, scanning the area with his Rinnegan.

Understanding immediately, he weakly said, "The rain weakens all jutsu and chakra, except

Water Style. Disperse the paper umbrella."

After speaking, Nagato stretched out his hands, and a transparent barrier from the Sealing

Absorption Seal enveloped him and Konan, quickly absorbing the rain above them.

However, not long after...

Nagato erupted into a violent coughing fit, causing the technique to falter. The barrier

flickered a few times before completely vanishing.

"Cough cough... Sorry, Konan."
