Chapter 320: Is Uzumaki Naruto Actually This Underhanded?
Would Nagato be soft-hearted?
The answer is no.
Because in the cruel world Nagato has experienced and witnessed, soft-heartedness is a luxury and a fatal weakness.
He had witnessed with his own eyes how his homeland, that small nation squeezed in the cracks between the great powers and ravaged by the flames of war, was wantonly trampled, contested, and destroyed by the Ninja armies of the three great nations of Fire, Wind, and Earth.
For their own interests, for so-called "strategic locations," and to consume each other’s military strength, those great nations did not hesitate to bring the flames of war to the Land of Rain, dragging innocent civilians into the meat grinder known as war.
Houses were destroyed by Ninjutsu, farmland was scorched by fire, loved ones died from stray arrows and explosions, and children cried in the ruins until they were silent...
Did those great nation Ninjas, those high and mighty Kages, ever have a shred of soft-heartedness?
Had they ever stopped their killing pace because of the cries of civilians?
No.
Not even once!
They would only coldly calculate casualty figures, weigh interests and losses, and then impose more suffering on the weak.
The battle between them was set on the soil of small nations; their people are human, but are the people of small nations not human?
The rules established by the great nations and the peace they dominate come at the cost of the blood and tears of small nations.
In Nagato’s view, Hidden Stone Village, as one of the Five Great Nations that once participated in the invasion and caused countless tragedies, is only experiencing the certain retribution of Karma and Reincarnation today.
When the Hidden Stone Village Ninja pierced Kunai into the chests of Amegakure villagers back then, did they ever think there would be a day like today?
When Onoki ordered his troops to step into the territory of other nations, did he ever have a shred of mercy?
Pain needs to be felt.
Pain needs to be passed on.
Only by letting these great nations, who proclaim themselves as "righteous" and enjoy the dividends of peace, personally experience the taste of their homes being destroyed, their loved ones being scattered, and trembling helplessly before absolute power, can they truly understand "Pain" and truly contemplate the meaning of peace.
Watching the chaos in the distance, Nagato’s heart remained unmoved.
Nine golden tails slowly spread out.
Naruto also opened his eyes.
While blocking the Laser Cannon just now, he had used Kagura Minds Eye to find Nagato, who was controlling the Six Paths of Pain from a cavern somewhere outside the village.
Now, Nagato’s task was complete.
Once the impression of fighting to protect Hidden Stone Village is established in the villagers’ hearts, subsequent actions will be much easier.
The massive Wood Golems that were originally in the heat of battle with the Six Paths of Pain’s summoned beasts suddenly changed their attack method.
They no longer engaged in brute-force wrestling with the summoned beasts, but instead relied on the flexibility and growth characteristics of Wood Release, as countless thick and tough wooden vines and tentacles suddenly sprouted from their arms, torsos, and even the ground beneath them!
These wooden tentacles, like giant pythons with lives of their own, flexibly coiled around, bound, and restricted the joints, mouthparts, and attack organs of the summoned beasts like the Multi-Headed Dog, Giant Crustacean, and Giant Ram.
The summoned beasts struggled frantically, biting, scratching, and firing Chakra attacks, but under the fine control of the Wood Clones, the damaged parts of the Wood Release creations regenerated rapidly, even absorbing their Chakra and converting it into nutrients for themselves, firmly imprisoning the six powerful summoned beasts in place.
"Magnet Release: Sand Waterfall Imperial Funeral!"
Naruto’s low voice rang out without the slightest hesitation.
He had already made a decision in his heart.
Delaying was useless; since he had already locked onto Nagato’s Main Body and the battlefield situation had developed as expected, he would sweep away these Puppets with thunderous momentum.
Following his will, the gold dust that had previously been scattered across the battlefield due to the fighting suddenly gathered and surged frantically from the ground, the air, and the ruins, as if summoned by an invisible king.
The friction of the golden sand grains emitted a roar like a tsunami, and in an instant, it formed a golden sea of sand that blotted out the sun, sweeping over and drowning the scattered Six Paths of Pain from all directions with the force of a mountain-toppling wave!
This was not a pure Chakra attack, but a physical inundation of real matter driven by Chakra.
gold dust itself possesses terrifying weight and fluidity; once caught in it, one would be like falling into a quicksand Hell, instantly destroyed by endless pressure and friction.
The Preta Path Pain immediately spread its arms, and the pale blue barrier of the Blocking Technique Absorption Seal expanded instantly, attempting to absorb the Chakra contained within the gold dust. However, it was just as Naruto had expected.
"Sizzle..."
The edge of the barrier came into contact with the gold dust, indeed absorbing some of the Chakra driving it, causing the flow speed of the gold dust in that area to slow down slightly.
But the gold dust itself is real matter!
gold dust that has lost its Chakra drive is still gold dust.
In just a moment, more gold dust slammed into the barrier of the Blocking Technique Absorption Seal like a true tsunami wave!
The barrier fluctuated violently under the physical impact and continuous heavy pressure, emitting an overburdened groan.
The ability to absorb Chakra was greatly diminished against this type of physical projectile attack based on physical mass.
The figure of the Preta Path was quickly swallowed by the golden waves of sand.
"Scatter!"
Nagato simultaneously controlled the Six Paths of Pain to respond.
The six Pains, each with different abilities, immediately displayed their own divine abilities, trying to evade or resist this terrifying sea of sand.
The Heavenly Dao flew directly into the air.
The Human Path and Animal Path tried to escape with high-speed movement, but the coverage of the sand sea was too wide and the flow speed too fast.
The Asura Path fired missiles to blow open a path in the sand sea, but the path was filled in an instant.
The Naraka Path tried to hide behind the King of Hell, but the King of Hell was also struggling in the waves of sand.
The power of the Sand Waterfall Imperial Funeral was truly too immense; although the Six Paths of Pain resisted with all their might, their figures appeared teetering under the impact of the gold dust, their formation completely broken as they fought individually.
However, this seemingly devastating attack did not appear to annihilate all the Pains in one fell swoop. After the momentum of the sand waves reached its peak, the power began to naturally decay and disperse due to the wide range and scattered control precision. Although the Pains were in a sorry state, they seemed able to hold on.
But at the most critical moment, when the power of the sand waves had reached its peak and was about to subside, and the Pains’ attention was firmly captured by this might of heaven and earth.
"Flying Thunder God!"
A clear, low shout seemed to ring out from every corner of the battlefield simultaneously!
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Six golden flashes ignited and extinguished instantly in six completely different directions at almost the same moment.
The speed was so fast that even the Rinnegan’s visual sharing could barely capture the trajectory, only seeing six brief golden afterimages.
This was Naruto’s true killing move: the Flying Thunder God Sequential Slashes using the Sand Waterfall Imperial Funeral as a feint and cover!
gold dust could form Flying Thunder God Marks, allowing him to teleport to the corresponding positions instantly using the Flying Thunder God technique.
As the strongest person in terms of theoretical Yang Release in the world today besides Hashirama, is Uzumaki Naruto actually this underhanded?
So, do the Senju and Uzumaki represent the ultimate "Yang"? Is Uzumaki Naruto actually this underhanded? He’s so "Yang" he’s become a sun!
