#551: Nagato must be stopped!!
Nagato demonstrates his iconic Rinnegan...!!
Nagato has captured Naruto using his chameleon.
Naruto: "This... what on Earth is this technique!?"
Naruto: (Pulling technique...!! Pushing technique...!! Summoning technique...!! Ninjutsu absorbing technique...!!)
Naruto: "It looks like he has the ability to use all of Pain's techniques!! But why don't I know about this one!? Rasengan!!"
The Rasengan gets absorbed.
Naruto: "Dah! I should have known! He used that ninjutsu absorbing technique a little while ago!! I'm such an idiot!! Nagato! Explain all your techniques! Why won't you tell me!?"
Nagato: "..."
Naruto: (Crap, he's being controlled completely...)
Nagato: (Naraka Path!)
The King of Hell rises up out of the ground.
Naruto: (This guy is...? Of course! This is Pain's revival technique!)
Naruto: "What the heck's he using that for!?"
Kabuto: (I can kill him by removing his soul with the Human Path, then I'll use the Naraka Path to squirrel away his soul and body so I can revive him at my own leisure... This way I can make the Jinchuuriki my own without Madara knowing about it... Now, where are those other two...)
Naruto's soul starts to come out... more of it gradually gets pulled out! He's losing power and starting to fall asleep!! (He's trying to hold onto his soul like it's a tug-of-war match)
B's airborne, checks out the chameleon, also checks out the King of Hell.
B brandishes his blade and dives down, about to slash Nagato.
Nagato: (Asura Path!!)
Two arms sprout of Nagato's right side, one catches B's right hand and the other grabs his throat.
B: "Kuh!!"
Naruto: "!?"
Nagato begins to rapidly strangle B.
B: (He's summoned some sort of armor mechanism!)
Naruto: "Ngggh... My strength is fading."
Nagato's right arms become all mechanized.
B: "He's got a bunch of arms that look dandy♪ And a ton of jutsu that are really handy♪"
B: "Naruto, remember your tug-of-war with the Kyuubi!!"
Naruto: "Kuh!"
Nagato's right hand becomes mechanized, he aims it point blank in B's face.
Itachi's Susano'o pries Nagato and Naruto apart.
Nagato: "!"
Susano'o grabs Naruto and B.
Itachi: "Susano'o!!"
Kabuto: "Well, well... It seems there are still some stars I haven't grabbed..."
Nagato: "Chibaku Tensei!"
Naruto: "Whew, I'm alive! Thanks, Itachi!"
B: "What's with all those ninjutsu? That is one ludicrously overpowered mothafucka!"
Naruto: "The Six Paths of Pain... So, yeah, he's got all the powers of the Sage of Six Paths!! And this time he's using them all himself instead of controlling corpses, so his strength and speed are totally unbelievable!!"
Itachi: "Here he comes..."
Nagato throws a black orb into the sky, which begins to attract stones and rocks.
The ground starts to crumble.
Itachi: "That black orb... it seems to have incredible gravitational pull."
B: "What is that, yo!?"
Naruto: "Uwah! Th...this is that technique from before! It's totally awful! If you get caught up in it, it's all over!"
Itachi: "Hey... Naruto."
Naruto: "WhaAaAat!?"
Itachi: "If getting hit by it is really so deadly, how come you're still around?"
B: "Ahahaha, it ain't no thang♪ This is all a game♪"
Naruto: "This is not a joke!! How can you laugh at a time like this!? If you get sucked up, you'll never get back out! The gravitational force is incredible!! It happened to me back when the Kyuubi was going crazy...!"
Itachi: "When you're in a tight spot, you have to be calm and analytical. That black orb we saw Nagato throw earlier is most likely the core of the technique... It can probably be destroyed... if the three of us attack it simultaneously with our most powerful long-range ninjutsu!"
Naruto: "Great, but there's totally no way we'd be able aim for the center in this sort of chaos!"
Itachi: "We could hit it even if we didn't aim. We can use its own overwhelming gravitational force against it... Every technique has a weak point and there's always an opening if you look for it!"
B: "Hachibi, let's roll, OK!?"
Naruto: "Yeah!! Let's do this!!"
Itachi: "Yasaka no Magatama!!" [Eight-Foot Rosary]
Naruto: "Fuuton: Rasenshuriken!!"
B: "Bijuudama!!"
The black orb is destroyed by the explosion.
Nagato is stabbed by Susano'o's sword.
Nagato: "!!"
Nagato: "Sorry about all that... Itachi."
Itachi: "You're back to normal... This is the Totsuka no Tsurugi... you're almost sealed... Are there any last messages you want to leave behind?"
Nagato: "... Naruto... I'm going to go back to master's place, but I probably won't see the rest of your story... I wanted to tell you... You're the final chapter of the trilogy... Jiraiya was part one... it was perfect... but... the sequel, it was pretty much rubbish, thanks to me... even if master wouldn't admit it..."
Nagato's body gradually crumbles away.
Naruto: "..."
Nagato "..."
Nagato smiles.
Nagato: "It can be turned into a three-part series... Everything will be decided in the final chapter! Please, become a masterpiece good enough to redeem my chapter... Naruto!"
Naruto gives a "thumbs up" pose, with the crow perching on his shoulder.
