To be honest...
Just the Deva Path Pain alone makes Jiraiya feel a bit unsure.
"In that case..."
Jiraiya's gaze falls once again on the Hell Path Pain and Human Path Pain quietly standing at the rear: "Only two puppet abilities remain unknown..."
Just as Jiraiya is deep in thought, the Preta Path Puppet suddenly dodges aside, and Deva Path Pain raises a hand to unleash a powerful repulsive force towards Jiraiya!
"Almighty Push!"
Jiraiya's body is flung backwards, rolling directly into a rock wall, and he spits out blood instantly!
"The power can't be this weak..."
Jiraiya has personally witnessed the power of the Almighty Push used by Deva Path Pain in a battle against Akihara Kagura. He squints slightly: "Are they worried this hideout will be destroyed by the battle?"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Deva Path Pain, Asura Path Pain, and Preta Path Pain leap into the air simultaneously, launching an attack on Jiraiya!
In Deva Path Pain's hand, a Black Rod appears!
From Asura Path Pain's arm, a blade emerges!
Jiraiya quickly dodges, and the rock wall behind him is instantly destroyed by Asura Path Pain's strike, with debris flying everywhere!
Unconcerned, Asura Path Pain swings the blade on his arm, continuously slashing towards Jiraiya, not caring whether Jiraiya can counter!
"Ninpo: Summoning Jutsu!"
Jiraiya raises his hand to perform the Summoning Jutsu!
An Iron-Arm Toad appears on the spot, stretching out its arms to block an attack from Asura Path!
"Bypass them and head straight to deal with Nagato!"
Seizing this opportunity, Jiraiya rolls and attempts to rush inside the Akatsuki Hideout. This idea is somewhat inhumane, as Jiraiya knows that Nagato is unable to move due to his injuries.
Compared to the Pain Six Paths...
Perhaps the immobile Nagato is easier to handle!
However, Nagato might have seen through Jiraiya's intention, as Deva Path Pain waves the Black Rod to block his path, and the other Pains also block his way!
"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bomb!"
Jiraiya spits out a blaze, attempting to clear a path!
Preta Path Pain stands in front of the Fire Dragon Flame Bomb, raising a hand to directly absorb the ninjutsu Jiraiya unleashed!
"Lion Mane Jutsu!"
Jiraiya's white hair grows wildly, sweeping towards Preta Path Pain, seemingly trying to bind them with this move!
A wide blade emerges from Asura Path Pain's body, acting like scissors, snipping off Jiraiya's extending hair!
"I should have been more prepared..."
To avoid Asura Path's attack, Jiraiya jumps helplessly onto a rock wall, watching as the six Pains in the hideout gradually encircle him, a cold sweat trickling down his forehead.
The trouble is...
He can't summon stronger toads to assist in the battle now.
This hideout might not be able to accommodate the size of Gama Bunta and those giant toads; the most suitable companions for combat would undoubtedly be Sage Fukasaku and Sage Shima, who can also coordinate with him to use Sage Mode...
However...
Sage Fukasaku and Sage Shima are too powerful.
Jiraiya needs some time to summon them.
If possible, Jiraiya truly envies Akihara Kagura's summoning ability at this moment, able to summon all the toads from Mount Myoboku at any time, even the Great Toad Sage...
Regrettably...
That disciple has also become an enemy.
The most troublesome part now is...
This environment isn't suitable either.
The base inside this cave is extremely vast; the six Pains block all paths here, leaving Jiraiya with barely enough time to maneuver tactically.
"Something's not right..."
"I can figure out a way to create an environment suitable for maneuvering!"
Jiraiya pats his forehead, swiftly raising his hand to form Hand Seals again: "Ninpo: Summoning Jutsu! Sorry, Iwayado Giant Toad!"
The entire cave turns crimson in an instant!
This is the internal part of the massive Iwayado Giant Toad from Mount Myoboku. Its size is too vast for a complete summoning; Jiraiya can only summon part of its intestines.
The six Pains present are instantly divided by the intestines of the Iwayado Giant Toad, even losing sight of Jiraiya!
However...
No rush.
Animal Path Pain quickly clasps both hands to form Hand Seals!
The Six Paths of Pain are swiftly summoned together!
Seizing this opportunity, Jiraiya dashes quickly along the intestinal passage of the Iwayado Giant Toad, hoping to find an exit before the Six Paths break through the intestines!
Crash!
Asura Path Pain swings the blade, slashing at the intestinal walls, but it has no effect, only leaving some slime on the blade.
"Almighty Push!"
Deva Path Pain raises his palm!
A surge of repulsive force erupts from around his body, causing the entire intestine to expand rapidly like a balloon but stubbornly retains its elasticity!
"The repulsive force isn't strong enough..."
Deva Path Pain furrows his brow lightly, quietly awaiting the cooling time of Almighty Push.
The other Pains gather together, directly chasing Jiraiya along the intestinal passage since it's a single path!
"Almighty Push!"
