Naruto: Five Lives, Five Times the Excitement

Chapter 91 Nagato's New Ninjutsu

In the Land of Rain, in Maple Leaf Valley, the village continues to expand.

Throughout the ninja world, in addition to Kirigakure, Kumogakure, Konoha, and Sunagakure, various conflicts also occurred in other smaller ninja villages.

The turmoil in the ninja world quickly spread to the Land of Rain.

Many unfamiliar ninjas infiltrated the Land of Rain, carrying various motives, and wreaked havoc on various settlements.

During this period, the Rain Ninja traveled everywhere, driving away and eliminating these ninjas, and doing their best to stabilize the country's stability, which put a great strain on their manpower.

Faced with this situation, Hanzo handed over part of the defense line to the Akatsuki organization, allowing them to contribute manpower and resources.

Ooka Shin was implicated and also needed to patrol the border regularly, which reduced his training time, so he was in a bad mood.

On this day, Ooka Shin finished his patrol mission and returned home to find Nagato waiting for him.

"Nagato, judging from the smile on your face, you must have made a new discovery with the Rinnegan."

Nagato nodded and said with a smile, "That's right. Some time ago, information about two ninjutsu appeared in my mind. After continuous training, I finally mastered them, so I'm here to share them with you."

Ooka Shin was very curious: "Oh, let's go to the training ground. I want to see what kind of ninjutsu it is. Masao, keep a close watch on the house."

The two arrived at the training ground outside the village, where Nagato began to explain ninjutsu.

"These two ninjutsu are called Universal Pull, which can generate attraction to draw targets to your side. The other is called Shinra Tensei, which can generate repulsive power to resist various attacks."

Upon hearing Nagato's words, Ooka Shin's eyes lit up, and he even mentally gave himself a voiceover.

"Ding dong, your new cheat has been sent, please check."

So those are the two ninjutsu techniques. Not bad, very useful.

In such a short time, he has already mastered two Rinnegan ninjutsu. At this rate, it won't be long before Nagato obtains the full power of the Rinnegan.

Well, in this way, the day when Nagato surpasses Hanzo in strength should come much sooner than in the anime, and all my efforts to help him will not have been in vain.

"Quickly, let me see their power."

Seeing Ooka Shin's excited expression, Nagato smiled and threw a kunai, then extended his right hand towards the flying kunai.

"Universal Guidance!"

An unseen gravitational force appeared, and the flying kunai was sent flying backwards towards Nagato.

"The Universal Pull can change the strength of gravity according to the amount of chakra consumed, so as to deal with different situations."

At this moment, the kunai was already in front of Nagato, who flicked it with his right index finger.

"Shinra Tensei!"

An invisible repulsive force was generated centered on Nagato, blasting away dust, fallen leaves, and kunai.

"Like Universal Pull, the power of Shinra Tensei varies depending on the amount of chakra consumed. Moreover, this ninjutsu has some drawbacks, such as it cannot be used continuously and it will also bounce you away if you encounter an object that you cannot deflect."

Nagato explained things in great detail, almost step by step, trying to teach Ooka Shin.

Ooka Shin listened to Nagato's words and asked a question.

"Nagato, how do you know you can be bounced back? Where did you test Shinra Tensei?"

Nagato felt embarrassed when he heard the question. Instead of answering Ooka Shin's question, he continued to explain the feeling of using the two ninjutsu and how chakra flowed.

Yesterday, in order to test Shinra Tensei, Nagato fired a shot at the cliffs on both sides of the canyon, and then Nagato fell into the river face down.

Thinking of that scene, Nagato unconsciously touched his face, as if his face was hurting again.

Ooka Shin listened attentively to Nagato's words, memorizing them, and prepared to tell the others that evening.

After Nagato finished speaking, Ooka Shin finally spoke.

"After all that talk, I want to experience it for myself. Come on, Nagato!"

Ooka Shin stood in front of Nagato, eager to experience the feeling of flying around.

Nagato thought for a moment and figured that as long as he controlled his power, he shouldn't hurt Ooka Shin, so he nodded in agreement, reached out his right hand towards Ooka Shin, and activated his ninjutsu.

"Universal Guidance!"

"Shinra Tensei!"

Although Ooka Shin was mentally prepared, he was still caught off guard when the invisible gravitational force suddenly appeared.

At this moment, Ooka Shin realized the helplessness he felt when he first encountered that kunai. Not only could he not see gravity, but he also had no idea how to defend against it.

Even if all your muscles are tense and you're on high alert, it's useless, because once your feet leave the ground, there's nothing to use for leverage, and you can't exert any strength.

Flying in the air, Ooka Shin summarized: Facing the All-Encompassing Pull, unless one nails oneself to the ground and becomes one with the earth, it is difficult to resist.

Having just finished summarizing the Myriad Manifestations of Heavenly Guidance, he suddenly felt a violent repulsive force that sent him flying.

"Damn! Shinra Tensei is way more violent than Banshou Ten'in!"

If Universal Pull is like a hand grabbing you, then Shinra Tensei is like an iron wall, constantly crashing into you.

Even though Nagato controlled his strength, Ooka Shin felt a lot of pain in his body, and even his internal organs trembled.

After retreating several meters, Ooka Shin landed on his knees, rubbing his aching chest and stomach.

Nagato walked over and asked with concern, "Shin, how are you feeling? Do you need treatment?"

Ooka Shin stood up, shook his head, and said, "It's alright. Only by experiencing it firsthand can you understand the value of this ninjutsu. Nagato, you're getting better and better."

Nagato breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ooka Shin was alright, and then said, "Shin, why don't you practice these two ninjutsu? You might need them in the future."

Upon hearing Nagato's words, Ooka Shin paused for a moment, looking at the gentle yet seemingly meaningful smile on Nagato's face, and tentatively asked, "Nagato, what do you mean by this?"

Did Nagato discover something?

It's hard to say. After all, the Rinnegan is very magical, and maybe it has some abilities that weren't shown in the anime.

Nagato paused for two seconds before replying, "It's nothing. I just feel that your training method is very special. You needed the Rinnegan in the past, and you will probably need it in the future as well."

Nothing? What were you thinking about during those two seconds of silence?

It's all those four alt accounts' fault. Whenever there's a problem, they want me to use the Rinnegan to cheat. The Nagato family members are just kind and honest people, not idiots. Of course they'll be suspicious.

What should we do? Should we make up a lie?

No, I haven't told a lie since I met them. I've genuinely helped them from beginning to end, and that's how I gradually gained their trust.

One lie leads to countless more to cover it up, and it will eventually be discovered.

Moreover, given the characters Yahiko and the others are portrayed in the anime, the truth is more likely to resonate with them.

A virtuous person can be deceived by reason.

Therefore, Ooka Shin chose to tell the truth.

"Nagato, there are many things I cannot tell you right now."

Things like your future, the connection between the five of us, our desire to become beings like the Otsutsuki, and so on.

"I do need the Rinnegan to improve my strength, but I will never covet your Rinnegan."

It's true, after all, it's Madara's Rinnegan, who knows if there are any hidden dangers. Even if there aren't, we don't want someone else's Rinnegan, we'd rather have our own.

At this point, Ooka Nobu took a deep breath and his expression relaxed.

"I truly like you, I genuinely want to help you, and I hope for a peaceful world. If you find that I have hurt you, you can kill me at any time."

I certainly like partners of justice like you.

Once we stand at the pinnacle of the ninja world, we can easily unify it, and then the ninja world will be at peace.

Our goals are not conflicting; on the contrary, they can complement each other, so of course we won't harm you.

Besides, even if I die, as long as one of the other four grows stronger, I will have a chance to be resurrected.

Well, maybe after you die, your soul will meet many famous people.
