Chapter 290 The Heroic Deeds of Tsuchikage Onoki!
Sasori stared at Onoki for a long time, unwilling to look away. The reason was simple: his Dust Release was excellent, very strong, and very intimidating. He wanted it!
As for how to obtain Dust Escape—
Sasori planned to wait until the leader killed Onoki, then collect Onoki's body and turn Onoki's body into a human puppet far surpassing the Third Kazekage!
A human puppet capable of using Dust Release!
With Konan's order given, Kakuzu and Sasori naturally had no intention of slacking off any longer, and their eyes were fixed on the Iwagakure ninja who were leading the retreating group.
The aftershocks of Onoki and Pain's battle left the ground covered with scorch marks from the disintegration of Dust Release and huge craters from Shinra Tensei. This is why Onoki insisted on having Yotsuchi lead the Iwagakure ninjas to retreat.
As for Deidara, who joined the battle, he overestimated himself.
He could only watch the battle between Onoki and Pain from the sidelines, occasionally throwing out his clay bombs in an attempt to help Onoki, but those clay bombs were usually detonated before they even touched Pain.
During this time, Onoki launched two more Dust Release attacks, but each time Pain accurately deflected them with Shinra Tensei.
His breathing became heavier and heavier, his body became more and more stiff, and his back was even soaked with sweat.
"Old man, where did this guy come from? How can he be so strong?!"
Deidara and Onoki stood back to back, but Deidara still had his uses. At least when that strange gravity struck Onoki, Deidara's clay bombs forced Pain to dodge.
Pain had considered killing Deidara completely, but as long as Pain focused his attention on Deidara, Onoki's threat level continued to rise.
"Just a bunch of lunatics!"
Onoki stared intently at Pain in front of him; he genuinely believed Pain was insane.
While it's possible that some people in Iwagakure might have embezzled money from your Akatsuki organization, does that mean your Akatsuki should just start a war over a minor disagreement?
Onoki was already heartbroken by the losses suffered by Iwagakure!
"But that's about enough!"
"It's time to put an end to this farce!"
Onoki silently recited to himself that during the previous exchange, he had been consciously using the aftershocks of Dust Release to alter the surrounding terrain.
On the surface, the craters and cracks created by the dust escape technique appear to be mere traces of battle, but in reality, they are a massive rock formation!
"Earth Release: Earthquake Core!"
Onoki's body instantly lost buoyancy and crashed to the ground with a thud!
The earth trembled violently, and huge rocks rose from the ground, forming a special cage that perfectly trapped Payne inside!
Pain only noticed something was wrong when Onoki was casting the spell. However, as he looked around with his Rinnegan, he discovered that the position of the rocks rising from the Earthquake Core had been precisely calculated, blocking all his angles of evasion!
The older generation of ninjas really did have some skills.
"But do you think this will keep me in check?"
Payne raised his hand, ready to use Shinra Tensei to deflect all the rocks, but the moment he raised his hand, Onoki moved as well!
"Now!"
With a loud shout from Onoki, Deidara, who was still in a daze in the sky, instantly reacted.
He threw out clay pellets, which not only completely sealed the gaps in the rock formation, but also caused all the excess clay to rush into it, resulting in a violent explosion in the middle!
Onoki himself used the Super Light Heavy Rock Technique to accelerate himself to the limit. In his hand, the Dust Release, which was originally a cube, had now completely turned into a white ray of light!
This is Onoki's trump card. After further refining Dust Release, although Dust Release lost the power of large-scale decomposition, it gained speed and penetrating power that exceeded the limit!
At the center of the rock formation, Pain's Rinnegan was also trembling.
Onoki's long-planned attack, aided by the power of the battlefield, was enough to cause irreversible serious injury to his Heavenly Dao body!
If it were any of the other paths in the Six Paths, Nagato wouldn't necessarily give up, but this body of Pain's Deva Path was once Yahiko's body. How could he allow Onoki to destroy it?
Pain unleashed Shinra Tensei almost instantly, its repulsive force sending all the surrounding rocks flying. The rubble flew like cannonballs. Onoki, as if he had anticipated Pain's move, used the rubble as cover and continued his advance towards Pain's location!
In an instant, the white light in Onoki's hand seemed like the Grim Reaper's scythe, piercing straight for Pain's chest!
"Snapped!"
Just as Onoki's face was about to show a relieved expression, a pale hand appeared out of thin air, gripped Onoki's wrist tightly, and pulled Onoki down rapidly!
Onoki turned his head in disbelief. Dust Release was about to pierce Pain!
He couldn't understand where this guy who suddenly grabbed his hand came from.
But when Onoki saw clearly who was stopping him, the disbelief in his eyes instantly turned into horror.
"How is this possible—"
What stopped Onoki was not anyone else, but the only remaining Asura Path among the Six Paths!
Although the Asura Path's body looked tattered, Onoki noticed the moment he looked at it that its eyes clearly held the same Rinnegan as Pain's!
"There's another person with the same eyes as that guy—"
Further away, Deidara's smile also froze. After being entangled with Onoki and Pain for so long, Deidara had guessed that Pain's power was probably related to his strange eyes.
But now, a second person with the same eyes has appeared?
As Shura Path forcefully pried open Onoki's wrist, Onoki's face instantly turned ashen.
It's unclear whether Onoki is in pain or feeling a sense of despair after the appearance of the Asura Path!
"Deidara, let's go!"
At this moment, Onoki was also decisive. He had no mind to think about anything else and just roared.
The Akatsuki's strength was hidden too deeply, to an unbelievable degree. Onoki didn't think he could survive, but he wanted Deidara to survive. Only if Deidara survived would Iwagakure's bloodline limit not truly be lost!
"Walk!"
Sensing that Deidara's chakra hadn't moved, Onoki decisively severed his own forearm.
As Onoki broke free from the clutches of the Asura Path, he roared once more.
"Old man—"
At this moment, Deidara was truly moved. He wanted to rush up and fight Pain to the death, but Deidara knew very well that he could never be a match for Pain.
"Walk?"
"None of you are leaving, Iwagakure. You will have to pay the price for your actions!"
Standing in the sky, Pain slowly opened his arms, and an even more terrifying chakra was slowly gathering on his body!
