#434: Naruto VS Deva Path
[Insert text: Ten years on the legs! Ten years on the left arm! The training to operate the head goes on and on!! // Working together with his clones, Naruto forms the Rasen Shuriken!!]

3
[Insert text: Unstoppable vigour! Only two Pain to go!!]
Fukasaku: Excellent!
Gamabunta: Good going, kid!!

4
Deva!Pain: (So right at the beginning... // ...he had already hidden in the smoke and leapt into the air...)

5
Deva!Pain: (This is a close battle...)

6
Deva!Pain: Shinra Tensei.

7
Fukasaku: Are you all right?!
Naruto: Yeah...

8
Naruto: Dammit! What the heck's with this jutsu?!
Katsuyu: It would appear that the central Pain has regained his power. // It seems likely that the destruction of the village was the work of that same Pain's technique. // Perhaps the larger the scale upon which he uses it... / ...the longer the interval becomes before he can use it once more.
Naruto: So that's why he wasn't using that repelling jutsu until just a moment ago...? // ......What do we do now...? / He can repel both ninjutsu and taijutsu...

9
Katsuyu: According to information from Chouji-kun... // ...the basic interval between that Pain's techniques is around five seconds. / It would seem the only option is to make a decisive attack during that gap.
Naruto: Just five seconds, huh...
Fukasaku: I suppose we'll just have to catch him in a genjutsu. // Just like last time!
Naruto: But how? / I can't use genjutsu, you know that!
Fukasaku: We'll do it ourselves!
Deva!Pain: Shinra Tensei.

10
Gamabunta: Guaahh!!
Gamaken: Ngohh!!
Gamahiro: Ngh!
Gamabunta: Nguohh!!
Naruto: Boss Gama!!
Gamahiro: Ughhh!

11
[no text just ouch]

12
Shinobi: What the? // What on Earth is going on?
Katsuyu: Naruto-kun is fighting with Pain this very instant.
Shinobi: Naruto?!
Chouji: He's fighting?! / On his own?!
Katsuyu: Indeed... and we are not to interfere.
Kiba: I guess we've just got to trust him... now it's come to this...
Akamaru: Ruff!

13
RandomHyuuga: No doubt about it! / That's Naruto-kun all right!
Hinata: (......All on his own...)
RandomHyuuga: You mustn't, Hinata-sama!
Hinata: But...! Naruto-kun is fighting for the village...!
RandomHyuuga: If you tried to interfere in a battle like that, you would only end up being a burden to Naruto-kun... // You would only cause him more trouble!
Hinata: (Naruto-kun...)

14
Naruto: Dammit... he took out the Boss and everything...!
Fukasaku: I'll begin the genjutsu right away. // However, this genjutsu requires large quantities of Senjutsu chakra. / In other words, I'll need a little time before I can activate it.
Naruto: I'll aim for that five-second interval! // You use that genjutsu as soon as you have the chakra!!
Fukasaku: Don't forget, Naruto, you only have one clone left moulding Senjutsu chakra for you. // Once that's gone, you won't be able to stay still and mould any more Senjutsu chakra in mid-battle. / And your Sennin Mode won't last more than another five minutes.
Shima: Your idea for using clones in reserve to mould the Senjutsu chakra he needs was a good one, that's for sure... / ...but why on Earth didn't you prepare more of them?!
Fukasaku: We're talking about looking right and left at the same time. // He may have divided up the responsibility, but moulding Senjutsu chakra is still a difficult task. / ...Two clones was the most he could manage.

15
Naruto: What's more, I can only manage three clones to help me out in battle over here... // If I make too many of them, it'll mess up the one who's back there moulding Senjutsu chakra for me.
Shima: I see... // Either way, it looks like drawing this out could be dangerous...

16
Deva!Pain: You are certainly powerful... I have never known anyone to defeat Pain to this extent before.
Naruto: ?
Deva!Pain: However... // Banshou Ten'in.
Naruto: !

17
Deva!Pain: I think this is quite enough.
Fukasaku: (I'm sorry, Naruto-chan! Just hold on a little longer!)
Hinata: (Naruto-kun!)

18
Deva!Pain: Worry not... I do not mean to kill you. // You are, after all, a precious Jinchuuriki.
Naruto: Heh... / This barely even hurts at all! // Don't underestimate the power of Sennin Mode! Next it's your turn to... // ?!
Deva!Pain: Indeed... / ...that "mode" is a little troublesome.

19
Naruto: (What the? My power's draining away... // Of course... this guy...! // Is he absorbing the Senjutsu chakra from my body?!)
Pain: Kyuubi acquisition accomplished.
