Pain stood before Kirigakure, contemplating his strategy.

He would prefer to keep the Akatsuki's existence under wraps for now.

A powerful organization, if it drew too much attention, could become a target for the other Hidden Villages.

Although the Villages weren't exactly allies, they would unite against a common threat—just like in the original story, where they joined forces against Obito and the White Zetsu army during the Fourth Shinobi World War.

However, after some thought, Pain realized the Akatsuki couldn't stay hidden any longer. Assassinating a Kage was a high-profile act; there was no way to keep it quiet.

"We attack directly."

Pain said. Subtlety was out the window. Pain summoned the other five Paths; the Six Paths of Pain were assembled.

Orochimaru's eyes widened.

Six Rinnegan? Had he seen correctly? Was the Rinnegan he craved so desperately suddenly commonplace?

Since Orochimaru joined Akatsuki, he had only seen Deva Path—so he was so shocked when he saw the other five pairs of Rinnegan now.

"Shin?"

Orochimaru turned to Shin, hoping for an explanation.

Although younger, Shin seemed to possess a wealth of knowledge. Orochimaru didn't believe the Rinnegan was suddenly common; there had to be a reason for this.

"Ask Pain. Though I doubt he'll tell you,"

Shin glanced at Orochimaru and said.

Not getting an answer from Shin, Orochimaru wisely decided against questioning Pain.

The Animal Path infiltrated Kirigakure first, and then used the Summoning Technique to summon all the other Pains inside.

"The Leader's inside. Let's go. Orochimaru, show me what you're capable of," Sasori said coldly.

"You'll see." Orochimaru gave a chilling smile.

They despised each other. Orochimaru would love to turn Sasori into a re

Yagura wasn't one of them.

Orochimaru, Sasori, and Kakuzu arrived. Orochimaru, seeing the Deva Path easily suppressing Yagura, felt a flicker of greed, then quickly suppressed it.

"Hold back the other Kiri ninja," Pain ordered.

He could level the entire village with a [Super Almighty Push], but that would consume Nagato's life force.

Besides, annihilating Kirigakure wasn't his objective.

He just needed to kill Yagura. Sasori released his puppets. This kind of large-scale battle suited him perfectly.

Orochimaru summoned a swarm of snakes, even more numerous than Sasori's puppets.

Kakuzu wasn't idle either, He unleashed his [Earth Grudge Fear].
