Naruto: If Sasuke Awakens Entry System

Chapter 53: Chapter 53: The Rinnegan, A Clash of Titans



Five miles outside the Hidden Rain Village.

Tick-tock—

A light drizzle began to fall.

Suigetsu opened the conference room door: "Even though I like water, I can't stand the weather here..."

Jūgo reminded him, "Suigetsu, stay alert. Remember, we're here to protect Sasuke."

Suigetsu shrugged, "Yeah, yeah..."

Sasuke commanded, "Jūgo, Suigetsu, follow me!"

With that, he stepped into the conference room.

The room was dimly lit and cold.

Sasuke looked up at the three members of the Akatsuki organization—Pain (Tendō), Konan, and his old acquaintance, Kakuzu.

Pain greeted him, "Welcome to the Land of Rain, Uchiha Sasuke."

Sasuke replied coldly, "Enough with the pleasantries. Let's get to the point."

Those eyes were special, likely the Rinnegan that Sasori had mentioned.

"System, display the entry!" Sasuke thought.

Strangely, the system didn't respond at all.

Sasuke narrowed his eyes. What was happening? Could there be an issue with the system? No, Kakuzu and Konan's entries were normal...

Pain maintained a blank expression, "Very well, I'll be direct."

He paused, "Uchiha Sasuke, for the sake of world peace, please hand over the tailed beasts you possess. In return, the Akatsuki will compensate you accordingly."

Sasuke sneered, "World peace, by using tailed beasts as weapons?"

Pain's eyes flickered, "Yes, the world is foolish. Only through experiencing pain can people understand the value of peace."

Suigetsu was shocked, "So, you plan to use the tailed beasts to start a war?"

Konan clarified, "No, the tailed beasts can destroy a small country with a single blow. We intend to use this power to deter the nations of the ninja world, so they dare not start wars easily."

Sasuke retorted coldly, "That's just a fairy tale. Your ideals and methods are utterly foolish!"

Pain insisted, "Uchiha Sasuke, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. Just hand over the tailed beasts."

Sasuke ignored him and asked, "Where is Uchiha Itachi? Is he still hiding like a coward?"

Pain replied, "Uchiha Itachi shares our ideals. We won't let our comrades make unnecessary sacrifices."

Sasuke narrowed his eyes. It was the first time he couldn't find an entry. Was the Rinnegan so powerful that even the system was helpless?

Pain pressed on, "Uchiha Sasuke, I'll ask you one last time, will you hand over the tailed beasts or not?"

Boom!

Pain unleashed his ocular power.

For a moment, the room seemed frozen, making it impossible to move.

Suigetsu and Jūgo looked tense; the ocular power was almost on par with Sasuke's...

Swish!

A six-pointed star pattern appeared in Sasuke's eyes, activating the Mangekyō Sharingan!

In a trance, the space seemed to crack.

Jūgo and Suigetsu regained their freedom.

Sasuke's scarlet Mangekyō glared at Pain, "What about the Rinnegan? My Mangekyō will not lose to you!"

Boom!

The immense ocular powers of the Rinnegan and the Mangekyō clashed.

It was a scene of pupil power like a vast sea of stars, as powerful as the Milky Way descending from the heavens.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

The air swirled, overturning tables and chairs.

Sasuke and Pain engaged in an invisible battle of ocular power.

Bang, bang, bang!

The walls cracked, and the windows shattered.

Everyone was stunned.

Kakuzu was shocked. What a terrifying aura! In terms of presence alone, the leader and Uchiha Sasuke were almost on par with Senju Hashirama!

Konan's eyes widened. What, Uchiha Sasuke has such ocular power?

Suigetsu and Jūgo broke out in cold sweat. The Rinnegan's pressure was indeed not something ordinary people could withstand!

Suddenly, Pain clasped his hands together and shouted, "Hah!"

His ocular power surged, occupying three-quarters of the room in an instant.

Konan's face lit up with joy. As expected, Nagato was superior!

Kakuzu was shocked. What? The leader actually went all out against Uchiha Sasuke?

Suigetsu and the others clenched their fists, worry etched on their faces.

Sasuke remained calm.

Buzz!

A lightning rune appeared on his forehead, activating the Immortal Seal!

The Mangekyō glowed red, and his ocular power doubled, reclaiming a quarter of the space in the blink of an eye!

Konan exclaimed, "What, impossible!"

Kakuzu gasped. What terrifying ocular power. Could it be that even the leader wasn't a match for Uchiha Sasuke?

Pain slightly bent his knees, his face grim, "Defeat!"

Instantly, the balance of victory tilted towards Pain again.

Sasuke was shocked. The Rinnegan was indeed formidable. However, it was only the Rinnegan, not the Sage of Six Paths himself!

"Sage Mode, activate!"

As soon as he spoke, two dragon horns emerged from his forehead, and Sasuke's power surged again.

He looked directly at Pain, "I said my Mangekyō will not lose to anyone, even if the opponent has the Rinnegan!"

Huh!

The ocular power surged like a comet, shattering Pain's defense network in one fell swoop.

Bang!

The conference room exploded, leaving ruins everywhere.

Tick-tock—

Raindrops fell on everyone.

But Konan didn't feel the cold at all, as her heart was deeply shocked!

Kakuzu's eyes were filled with fear. To cause such destruction with ocular power alone, it's no exaggeration to say that Uchiha Sasuke's power is unpredictable.

Pain had a blank expression. It was the first time he was suppressed in terms of ocular power. Uchiha Sasuke was truly unfathomable!

With the Mangekyō and Sage Mode, the opponent was the strongest of the strong!

Sasuke frowned slightly. Although he had a slight advantage in ocular power, he knew very little about the Rinnegan. On the other hand, the opponent might have learned about the Mangekyō through Itachi...

In this case, caution was necessary once the battle began. Otherwise, it was not impossible to lose due to carelessness.

Suddenly, a bird flew over.

Jūgo's face darkened slightly, "Sasuke, the Cloud Ninja attacked the Ryūnosuke Society, Guren was defeated, and Karin was injured..."

Sasuke's fury cooled his desire to continue fighting with Pain.

At the same time, Pain frowned. Someone had infiltrated the Hidden Rain Village. Wait, the intruder was... Master Jiraiya?

He thought for a moment. Although Sasuke was very strong, his only concern was Itachi, and his threat level was far less than Jiraiya...

The next second, Pain said, "Uchiha Sasuke, let's stop here today. Let's give each other one last chance, okay?"

Sasuke narrowed his eyes, "I don't need it!"

He would never compromise on his revenge against Itachi!

All obstacles would be burned to ashes by the fire of vengeance!

Pain's face darkened slightly.

Sasuke declared solemnly, "I am here to formally declare war on Akatsuki on behalf of the Ryūnosuke Society!"

Konan and Kakuzu were shocked. This guy is too domineering, isn't he?

Jūgo and Suigetsu exchanged glances and then stood silently behind Sasuke.

Pain frowned. Not good. If this continued, Akatsuki's plan to achieve world peace would be greatly hindered!

Konan looked grim.

Kakuzu's expression flickered. To be honest, he just joined Akatsuki to make money, not to sacrifice his life.

A big war was about to start.

Caw—

Suddenly, a crow flew over and transformed into Itachi's appearance: "Sasuke, stop it..."
