"Guess if I found it?"

The moment Takemi's figure appeared, Pain's body seemed to stiffen.

He truly hadn't expected to already be thoroughly figured out after only his first encounter with this brat.

This brat's analytical ability is actually this great?

"Konan, let's prepare to withdraw."

Nagato made a decisive move. Although he didn't think he couldn't handle it, being immobile was still fatal.

Moreover, Konan was right beside him!

If he were alone, he probably wouldn't care what Takemi was going to do.

But Konan might not be able to deal with him, even if Konan could fly, he couldn't allow any accidents to happen.

Of the three people, only two remained, and Nagato had long sworn to protect Konan with his life.

Konana asked, "What happened that's so troublesome?"

"It is a bit troublesome, but—"

Nagato shook his head, but just as he was about to explain something, his expression suddenly changed drastically.

"Damn it!"

In the battlefield, facing the sky full of kunai and Takemi suddenly appearing behind him, even with his mindset affected, Pain, under Nagato's control, calmly made a countermeasure.

"Shinra Tensei!"

The repulsive force instantly scattered all the kunai, and even Takemi behind him was also sent flying at that instant.

"This…"

However, when he saw Takemi, who was flying backward, suddenly reveal a smile, and then transform into a Shadow Clone the next moment, he immediately felt that something was wrong.

"Now, how many seconds do you have left?"

The voice came from afar. In the blink of an eye, Takemi had already appeared behind Pain, attacking with the Ninja Art he learned from the Fourth Raikage combined with his blade.

"Damn it, he left the Mark underground?"

He recalled how Takemi had been spouting nonsense to him for a long time. So he had done so many things during that time?

He had been tricked by this kid?

"One second!"

A single strike fell. This time, Pain didn't have time to react, and the blade landed directly on his back.

However, he also tried his best to dart outward, using the force of Takemi's strike to accelerate his escape.

"Two seconds."

But just as he flew out, he saw several more kunai shooting towards him, and Takemi had already formed a hand sign with one hand.

"Ninja Art: Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

"Bansho Ten'in!"

Pain immediately raised his hand and pulled, and another giant rock rumbled, rising from the ground to block his path.

But the moment the giant rock had just risen, it was already shattered by a blade. The next moment, Takemi suddenly appeared behind Pain.

"Three seconds."

Bang—

That punch, carrying purple lightning, heavily struck Pain's body, sending him flying like a meteor in an instant.

"This guy…"

The Fourth Raikage gulped. Although the two of them fought their way into the distance, he still pursued them.

He wanted to see what was going on with that brat and also wanted to figure out some messy things.

But as soon as he arrived, he saw Takemi repeatedly pummeling the mysterious organization member.

Especially that constantly flickering figure made his heart waver.

"Minato…"

He still couldn't forget that man who, back then, single-handedly dealt both him and Bee, leaving them disoriented.

He hadn't expected another one to appear now.

But looking at Takemi's short blade and his white hair, he suddenly remembered something.

"Rumor has it that the Second Hokage created the Flying Thunder God Technique, was also skilled in Kenjutsu, and had white hair?"

Without time to think further, Takemi's figure flickered sharply. At the same time, a Shadow Clone appeared beside him.

Chakra spheres appeared simultaneously in the hands of both figures, a sight that immediately made the Fourth Raikage recall something.

"Rasengan? No, the color isn't right?"

The two Rasengans in Takemi's hands were of different colors, one white and one black.

He had no time to think further, the next second, he froze completely.

"Four seconds."

Silently, without any ripple, the moment Takemi's voice sounded, the two Rasengans in his hands had already slammed into Pain's body.

"Damn it!"

Pain looked at Takemi, who had suddenly appeared behind him, and immediately realized something.

But now was not the time to think about it, and he hadn't brought other bodies, so he truly couldn't make any evasive maneuvers for the moment.

In such an extreme situation, he could only unleash a more turbulent Chakra to defend.

In an instant, a blue Chakra erupted from Pain's body, and both of Takemi's Rasengans were pressed down.

Buzz—

Extreme power suddenly erupted wildly. The original darkness was now illuminated as if it were daylight by the light of these two converging forces.

Immediately after, a huge mushroom cloud suddenly rose, and blazing flames ignited everything around.

The earth trembled slightly, and on the ground, countless cracks continuously spread outwards.

"Damn it!"

That huge impact also instantly sent the Fourth Raikage flying. He didn't know how many trees he crashed through before his body finally slammed into a giant rock.

This rock was shattered by his impact!

Fortunately, his body was strong enough that even with his Chakra sealed, he could still protect himself.

However, he looked ahead with an incredibly grim expression. Now, he was certain of one thing.

"This brat definitely left a Flying Thunder God Mark on me, it must be so…"

Recalling his first encounter with this brat, this brat could endure until the very end, only making his move when he thought he was about to win.

This sent a chill down his spine, and he suddenly thought of a certain Hokage his father had once evaluated, and an idea popped into his head.

"This brat, he wouldn't be trying to kill me, would he…"

The Fourth Raikage wasn't afraid of death, but if he were to die, he'd rather die in battle than be ambushed.

Takemi didn't know what the Fourth Raikage was thinking. At this moment, he had already put enough distance between them, and his Byakugan had been continuously observing Pain's situation from afar.

In his eyes, Deva Path lied in a pool of blood, his clothes completely torn, and even half of his body had disappeared.

Those black rods filled with Yin-Yang Release were scattered everywhere.

"Looks like it's over…"

Seeing this, Takemi finally let out a sigh of relief.

Dealing with a single Pain, especially when he had enough intelligence, wasn't that difficult for him. But if it were all six together, the situation would be a bit troublesome.

"Especially Nagato after Edo Tensei, that is truly not just ordinarily terrifying."

Thinking of Nagato, who, even after being 'taken over' by someone else, could still beat Naruto and Killer Bee, Takemi truly yearned for that power.

"But for now, I should find someone first."

As he pondered, he took out a fragment of a black rod, which he had just pulled from Yahiko's nose.
