Hashirama Senju also noticed Konan and Kisame's departure, but he didn't pay them any attention.
He was still watching the battle between Madara Uchiha and Pain with great interest.
Black Zetsu's eyes turned wary when he saw Konan leaving. After calmly considering the situation, he naturally realized that the reason for Nagato's change must be related to Konan.
But the root cause should be the Nine Tails Jinchuriki.
Konan, who should have contacted the Nine Tails Jinchuriki in Wave Country, suddenly returned to the Land of Rain, and then Nagato attacked him. It was obvious that Konan had obtained some information in Wave Country.
Looking at it this way, it must have been the same last time in Konoha. The Uchiha and the Nine Tails Jinchuriki had reached a cooperation, so the Nine Tails Jinchuriki revealed Obito's Dojutsu information to the Uchiha.
"Asura's reincarnation... Hagoromo Otsutsuki, is this also your backup plan!?"
Black Zetsu gritted his teeth as he watched Konan leave.
He quickly thought of something else, and his expression became even more solemn.
The Nine Tails Jinchuriki knows the Flying Thunder God Technique!
The battle must be ended as soon as possible!
Black Zetsu looked at Hashirama Senju and found that he still had a look of watching a good show, as if he was about to take out popcorn. He gritted his teeth even more in his heart.
If Hashirama Senju was unwilling to take action, he would have no way to control him. Only the caster could control the Reanimation Jutsu person.
Without the Barrier maintained by Pain, it had already been shattered in the battle between Madara Uchiha and Pain, and Black Zetsu was able to use his own methods again.
He immediately began to sense, searching for Hiruko's location in the ruins, and soon found him. However, Hiruko was obviously already in a coma at this moment.
The Deva Path's Almighty Push just now erupted too suddenly. Hiruko was performing the Reanimation Jutsu and didn't have time to use defensive measures, so he was directly blown away and fainted.
Black Zetsu didn't hesitate at all and immediately swept towards Hiruko's location.
He wanted to control Hiruko first, and then use Hiruko to control Hashirama Senju!
...
Konan spread her snow-white paper wings and flew through the sky above the Land of Rain, but her appearance seemed a little embarrassed due to her excessive eagerness.
However, the residents of the Land of Rain below had already fallen into panic due to the sudden battle. They were even more panicked when they looked at the tall Susanoo in the distance, and they were all hurriedly fleeing away from the battle by instinct.
No one noticed the embarrassed angel in the sky.
But Konan took in everyone's panicked expressions.
In addition to the pain in her heart, she could only feel a burst of powerlessness.
Countless pieces of paper fell from her paper wings, turning into paper cranes to guide the residents below to escape to relatively safe locations.
When Konan arrived next to Nagato, Nagato was clasping his hands together, his eyes sharp, and his expression looked very serious.
"Nagato, let's... let's escape quickly..."
Although it was a bit of a blow to morale, the best option now was to escape. Madara Uchiha was a Reanimation Jutsu body, unable to be killed, and his Chakra was inexhaustible.
On the other hand, Nagato, due to excessive use of the Rinnegan, the Chakra in his body had begun to not keep up with the consumption of the Rinnegan. If this continued, he would probably die due to Chakra exhaustion.
Nagato shook his head and said, "If there is no Pain to hold him back, Madara Uchiha will come over immediately."
"The Reanimation body has unlimited Chakra, we can't escape."
"There's only one way now to deal with them."
Nagato's clasped hands slowly opened, and a small black ball emitting a faint light appeared in the dark room.
Konan's face changed drastically upon seeing this, and she exclaimed in panic, "Nagato, if you use this move in the Land of Rain, those civilians..."
"There are already few residents there, and with the commotion from the battle just now, most of the people have already escaped. It won't cause too many casualties."
"Besides, no matter how many times I injure the Reanimation body, he can recover. Whether it's Taijutsu or Ninjutsu, they've already lost their effect. Only a Sealing Technique can deal with him."
"Since things have come to this, I have no intention of worrying about right and wrong. If we succeed, we will achieve victory at the smallest cost."
The black ball floated up, heading towards the sky above the battle between Madara Uchiha and Pain.
"Planetary Devastation!"
When the black ball reached a suitable position, Nagato roared and clasped his hands together again.
The black ball in the air rapidly expanded, turning into a huge gravity ball, and a terrifying gravitational force erupted.
The ground began to shake violently, and countless houses and buildings in the surrounding area were destroyed, turning into countless gravel that was sucked towards the gravity ball.
Below the gravity ball, Madara Uchiha had already activated the second stage of Susanoo.
The four arms, which were originally just a skeleton, each held a long sword.
He defended against the large summoned beasts summoned by the Animal Path while also defending against the Asura Path's rocket missiles.
At the same time, he suppressed the Deva Path, preventing him from releasing the charged Almighty Push.
In just a short while, the ground was covered with fragments of summoned beasts, which twitched for a while before turning into smoke and disappearing.
In addition to the Fire Release that was like a natural disaster, even the Naraka Path and Human Path, who were providing vision from a distance, avoided it.
This made it impossible for the Naraka Path to find an opportunity to repair the Preta Path.
However, Madara Uchiha's attitude was not very serious. Which adult would get angry with a child? In his opinion, the battle with Pain was like child's play.
"This is?"
After solving the last hellhound summoned by the Animal Path, Madara Uchiha was about to swing down at the Deva Path again.
A gravitational force suddenly acted on him.
No, it wasn't acting on him, but on the entire area.
The ground beneath his feet began to crack and rise, and even Madara Uchiha's huge Susanoo followed suit.
"Planetary Devastation? Not entirely foolish."
Apart from the caster actively dispelling it, the best way to deal with Reanimation Jutsu is with a Sealing Technique.
However, Madara Uchiha still smiled lightly. Facing this strongest Sealing Technique of the Rinnegan, he didn't show any panic.
Madara Uchiha did not resist the gravitational force coming from the air, and his body flew towards the black ball in the air.
"Yo, Madara, this technique seems quite powerful."
Madara Uchiha once again heard Hashirama Senju's voice in his ear.
Because Hashirama Senju was also within the range of Planetary Devastation, and so were Black Zetsu and White Zetsu.
However, Black Zetsu had once again turned into a pool of mud, covering Hiruko.
"Hmph!"
Madara Uchiha merely snorted coldly, glancing at Hashirama Senju with disdain before falling silent.
Seeing that Madara Uchiha was ignoring him, Hashirama Senju wanted to say something more, but he suddenly froze in place, as if some dirty thing had taken control of his body.
After a long while.
"Is it... resolved?"
Konan also looked at the massive rock sphere in the sky that blocked out the sun with a shocked expression. This was truly a miracle.
Nagato's expression was equally puzzled. This all seemed too smooth, as if Madara Uchiha had been sealed willingly.
In fact, it was indeed as he thought.
Rumble!
In the sky, a earth-shattering roar suddenly erupted from within the rock sphere that blocked out the sun without warning.
It was like thunder exploding, instantly resounding throughout the entire Land of Rain.
Countless pieces of gravel fell like raindrops, and a dazzling blue-purple blade of light suddenly flashed across the sky like lightning, splitting the rock sphere open from the inside.
At the same time, several wood dragons with bodies so large that they were unimaginable roared out of the rock sphere. They brandished their claws and fangs, winding and coiling in the air, their sky-covering figures giving people an indescribable sense of oppression.
Nagato widened his eyes in an exaggerated manner, while Konan immediately sent a distress signal to Naruto through her ring.
...
...
I didn't manage my time well during yesterday's exam, and I didn't finish all the questions. After half a year of preparation, I don't know what the result will be. My mentality is a bit unstable, but I will adjust as soon as possible in the next few days.
