[Insert text: Naruto is in Sennin Mode and ready for the final showdown!!!]
Deva!Pain: (Has he already mastered the Kyuubi within him?) // !
Nagato: *cough*! / *cough*!
Konan: ! // Nagato!
Nagato: *pant* // *pant*

Naruto: !

4
Naruto: ! // (Because I transformed into the Kyuubi, my Chakra was disturbed... // My shadow clone's disappeared...) // .........

5
Deva!Pain: (And he is already in Sennin Mode...)
Naruto: !
Katsuyu: Haaaahh...! / I thought I was dead for a moment there...!
Deva!Pain: (He's a tough one... // I intended to confirm the full extent of the Kyuubi's power... // ...but to think that it would even escape Chibaku Tensei...)
Naruto: This is... // ......

6
Naruto: The village is over there... // So that's...
Katsuyu: You did it yourself when you were in Kyuubi form...
Naruto: (Don't tell me I... Hinata... the other villagers...!) // ......... // !

7
Katsuyu: I was worried myself. // But thankfully, your attacks when in Kyuubi form did not cause any significant damage to the villagers of Konoha... / Though we have only luck to thank for that...
Naruto: Thank goodness... // Thank goodness they're okay...
Hinata: (Naruto-kun...)
Neji: Hinata-sama!
Tenten: ......

8
Tenten: Her wounds aren't fatal. / But they need to be healed immediately!
Neji: I'm looking for a medical ninja right now!
Flashback!Gamabunta: (Konoha has been attacked by Akatsuki! I can't move any longer! Just go on ahead!)
Guy: To think it was this bad...
Lee: There's another wounded frog over here!
Deva!Pain: I think it is time we settled this...

9
Flashback!Minato: You have the power to find that answer.
Naruto: ......
Deva!Pain: ...Have you perhaps come to understand pain a little? // Unless you know their pain, you can never truly hope to understand others. // And even once you do, that by no means guarantees that mutual understanding can be reached. // ...This is a fact. // Just as it is a fact that your chasing after Sasuke is a useless endeavour...

10
Naruto: Take me to the place where your real body is hidden! // There's something I want to discuss with you face-to-face.
Deva!Pain: ...... // Oh...? So you have realised that much... // Jiraiya-sensei and you people of Konoha continue to impress me. // However... the time for discussion is over... / Whatever you wish to say at this point, it will change nothing.
Naruto: Just hear me out!
Deva!Pain: ......

11
Deva!Pain: Sennin Mode... It would appear that you can only unleash that irritating Chakra shuriken of yours a maximum of two times. // And when you do, your Sennin Mode is dispelled.
Naruto: So there's nothing for it... but to fight you, huh...
Deva!Pain: If you fire that second shuriken and it misses... then you have lost... / I will show no more weakness... once that attack misses, I will beat you within an inch of your life, and take you away with me.
Naruto: ...Then I guess I have no choice... I'll find your real body myself!
Katsuyu: But how?
Naruto: I have an idea.

Deva!Pain: !

[no text just Naruto being a cunning little bastard]

14
Nagato: !! // (That boy... he used his Sennin Mode to trace the signals to their source...!)

15
Naruto: Found you!!
Deva!Pain: Why, you...!
Naruto; Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!!

16
Deva!Pain: (Here comes the first shot... // Hiding himself in the smoke... the same trick won't work twice...) // Shinra Tensei.
[Bottom text: Next issue, colour pages and the battle's conclusion!! An unexpected turn of events awaits!!]

17
Deva!Pain: (What?! // He used this as a shadow-shuriken, and......!)
Naruto: *pant* // *pant* // (I have five seconds! That should be enough!!)
[Insert text: Go for it! Next week, it's all over!!!]
