At the moment Yamas Golden Sword chopped through Nagatos neck, Nagatos Rinnegan flashed, and a change happened

Yama who couldnt perceive the sudden change used his Golden Sword to cut through Nagatos body unimpeded.

Slash Puff

The Golden Sword fell, and instantly, and slashed through Nagato and the ground behind him, as a result, another fissure extending up to several hundred meters appeared on the ground.

There was another earthquake, and the smoke and dust soared through the sky!

Although the battlefield was filled with dust, it didnt hinder Yamas vision as he looked at his Golden Sword and the place where he cut Nagato but for some strange reason, rather than being relieved for having killed Nagato, Yamas expression turned into a frown

He could feel it, a moment ago he really cut through Nagatos body, a solid physical body not the Shadow Clone kind of thing but strangely enough, both, Nagatos body, and the blood that was supposed to have been present here are missing!

This just didnt make any sense!

Was I affected by some Genjutsu? muttered Yama with a confused expression but soon denied this possibility because there is no disruption in his Chakra Flow

If I wasnt in a Genjutsu, and I did feel as if I cut through a body, then why is there no dead body of Nagato? And if there is no dead body then who did I cut earlier? Moreover, the fact that there is no dead body here, does that mean Nagato is still alive? thought Yama with a doubtful expression on his face as he tried to analyze what exactly happened in that short instant

Yama had an intuitive feeling that the threat of Nagato still exists No! its better to say that Yama is quite certain of his feeling The threat of Nagato has really not been dealt with!

And being certain of his feeling, Yama vigilantly scanned the battlefield to find Nagatos real position

Not far away, Nagato knelt on the ground, his chest undulating violently as he desperately gasped

His body was shivering, his heart was beating fiercely, all his goosebumps were erected, and cold sweat was overflowing from his sweat pores

Just a moment ago, Nagato was able to feel the breath of death encroaching on him and he knows in his heart that if he was even a microsecond late in doing what he did, he would have definitely died under the slash of Yamas Golden Sword!

There is no otherwise, but or if here It was an absolute case! Had that sword touched him, his neck would have been chopped off and instantly turned into dust!

The reason why Nagato is absolutely certain about the fact even his Sage physique granted to him by the combination of Uzumaki and Hashirama DNA would not be able to withstand that sword for more than an instant is that one of his Shadows that he used to change position with his real body has now turned into dust after being cut by that Golden Sword!

Thats right!

At the moment the blade of Yamas Golden Sword was about to slash through his neck, Nagato used the Body Replacement Technique with one of his Four Shadows and barely avoided death at a hairs breadth.

Although he avoided death by a very small margin, the breath of death is still lingering on his body, and the scene where his Shadow instantly turned into dust at the moment of being slashed by the Golden still makes his heart shiver!

If instead of his Shadow, it was him slashed by the Golden Sword, the result would have been exactly the same he too would have instantly turned into dust!

Damn it! His Jutsu is definitely a combination of more than 3 Chakra Natures otherwise, its completely impossible for it to disintegrate my Shadow! thought Nagato while spitting out the blood stuck in his throat, then stood up slowly.

It has been already mentioned repeatedly that since having transplanted the Hashirama Cells Nagato has mastered new Dojutsu

The new Rinnegan Dojutsu he has awakened is Limbo: Border Jail!.

After awakening Limbo: Border Jail!, Nagato is able to project his shadow into Limbo, an invisible world that coexists with the physical world but is ordinarily impossible to detect or perceive.

With the pair of Rinnegan, Nagato can form up to four shadows. Each shadow has the same abilities as the real Nagato, with the added advantage of being untraceable. The shadows can attack targets, giving the appearance of an inexplicable force knocking them down, or they can defend Nagato, giving the appearance of an invisible wall around him. The shadows are invulnerable to any kind of physical damage and can not be harmed through conventional means. A shadows very formation can be used defensively, taking Nagatos place mid-attack as a sort of Body Replacement Technique. Of course, after a certain amount of time, a shadow will need to return to Nagatos body, and he will likewise need to wait a certain amount of time before he can reform it.

In the face of Yamas sudden attack just now, Nagato abruptly replaced position with one of his Shadows to survive.

Based on all the characteristics and abilities that the Limbo Shadows have, it wouldnt be wrong to say that these four Shadows even surpass Nagatos main body.

Precisely why, from the fact that Yamas sword completely destroyed one of his Limbo shadows, Nagato knows that if that sword were to even touch his main body, then he would definitely die After all, the Limbo Clones are basically himself, other than the added advantage of being untraceable, and if even they couldnt survive Yamas sword, then how can he survive?

The Limbo Clones can be reformed after a certain amount of time, even if they are destroyed, but he, himself can not reform, therefore, Nagato knows that he must be more cautious when dealing with Yama at the same time, he also knows that he must take initiative and decided to use Limbo Clones to attack Yama.

Limbo Clones are his advantage both numerically, as well as strategically Nagato knows that Yama shouldnt be able to see or sense his Limbo Clones, and one cant fight something you cant see or sense Moreover, with his Limbo Clones, Nagato will be able to overwhelm Yama using the numerical advantage!

If one him, cant defeat Yama, then two him will do so, if two cant then three will, and if even the three cant, then four and five will definitely defeat him!

Nagato doesnt believe that Yama can fight against five him at the same time, and still come out as the winner Therefore, although a little scared, Nagato is also absolutely confident that he will be able to defeat Yama!

So, with all these thoughts in his mind, Nagato projected the other three Limbo Clones and made them attack Yama.

Yama didnt know Nagatos complicated thoughts, he was still pondering about how Nagato avoided his slash at such a close distance Just how exactly did he do it?

That slash just a few moments ago, Nagato should not have been able to avoid by any conventional means, and Yama is fairly certain that it wasnt a Shadow Clone that he killed because a mere Shadow clone would never give such a firm touch at the moment of being slashed by something like Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!.

Therefore, Yama is quite confused and unable to deduce what exactly happened Of course, all these thoughts didnt stop Yama from quickly finding the position of Nagato

Just as Yama discovered Nagato hidden within the cover of smoke and dust, he found out that Nagato was looking in his direction or more like, Nagatos gaze was specifically locked on his body which surprised Yama.

He shouldnt be able to see me through the cover of smoke, does that mean he has also learned sensory Jutsu? thought Yama.

It is exactly as Yama thought, although Nagatos Rinnegan doesnt allow him to see through dust and smoke, Uzumaki Clans unique Chakra sensory Jutsu Minds Eye of Kagura still allowed him to find the position of Yama even through the obstruction of smoke and dust.

Anyway, thats not important whats important is that Yama could see Chakra gathering in Nagatos Rinnegan which means Nagato is trying to do something.

What exactly is Nagato trying to do, Yama is not sure and Yama couldnt just make another attack on Nagato without figuring out how exactly Nagato dodged the previous attack after all, that scene was extremely bizarre

So, with this intention, Yama quietly waited for Nagato to make his move

After a few moments of waiting and observing, Yama felt two dim things approaching him one from the left side, and the other from the right side

Huh? What is that? thought Yama with a shocked expression.

Even with his Tenseigan fully activated, Yama couldnt clearly recognize what exactly are the two things approaching him at an extremely fast speed, therefore, he was extremely shocked Is there still some kind of Jutsu that even the Tenseigan cant perceive?

But Yama didnt have enough time to get his answer or make any deduction, as the two things had already approached him and attacked him.

Bang Bang Bang Bang

Accompanied by the muffled sound of fists and feet hitting his body, Yamas figure flew back sharply, and heavily slammed into the ground!

Puff Blood spurted out of his mouth at the moment of collision!

What the hell.? This was the only question in his mind, as it was going numb, and his body was painful. In just a short exchange that took place a few instants ago, he was hit more than several dozen times, and each hit he took was strong enough to smash mountains!

Slammed heavily on the ground, Yama resisted the pain he was feeling and fiercely waved his Golden Sword to force the two things back, then he too took some more distance from Nagato.

Up until this moment, Yama hasnt clearly seen what those two things were!

But one thing that Yama has understood through pain is the fact the raw power of those two things is high enough to smash mountains into rubble which is completely inconsistent with their small size moreover, the two things are fast enough to somewhat keep up with Yamas speed, and also managed to hurt him!

You must know that when using the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, Yamas speed and strength are improved by several dimensions and, because of the coating of Tenseigan Chakra, normal attacks cant even get past the defence of the Chakra Cloak, much less hurt him and yet, those two things could hurt him!

This fact implies just how much raw strength those two things have, and this fact also made Yama raise the threat level of Nagato higher

Of course, Yama wasnt the only one shocked Nagato on the other side was even more surprised than Yama, and thought, He can perceive my Limbo Clones? Just how? Limbo Clones should only be perceivable through the Rinnegan that can see through space! Does that mean he really has the Rinnegan?

Because the Limbo Clones do not exist in the physical world, they can not be perceived by conventional means

Although Yama was able to coincidently destroy his first Limbo Clone, Nagato didnt think that Yama can perceive his Limbo Clone but not it seems that that might not the case, and he more and more felt that Yama might also possess the Rinnegan!

To see the Limbo World, one needs the Rinnegan, and to sense the existence of the Limbo World, one must have sensory skills at the level of Six-Path Sennin Mode

Of course, Yama has neither, neither does he have the Rinnegan, nor has he mastered the Six Path Sennin Mode, but the insight of his Tenseigan is no inferior to the Rinnegan Although Tenseigan cant see through space unlike the Rinnegan, it can still see Chakra.

The Limbo Clones, although existing in the Limbo world, they are still Chakra and Yamas Tenseigan is allowing him to see that Chakra, albeit barely, and unclearly because the Limbo Clones are present in a different dimension!

This is also the reason why Yama called Nagatos Limbo Clones, those two things rather than those two people.

But Nagato doesnt know this fact he felt that Yama is able to see his Limbo Clones which made him completely shocked.

Nagato clearly understands that besides all their special abilities, the main reason why Limbo Clones are extremely powerful is because of other peoples inability to perceive them

Obviously, you cant defend or attack something you can neither see nor sense

But if someone can perceive them, the threat of the Limbo Clones will obviously be reduced! Although the Limbo Clones will still give him a numerical advantage against Yama, it wont be like before when just looking at Yama was more than enough to kill him!

Moreover, for those standing at the pinnacle of the Shinobi World, such as Yama who can turn anything they attack into dust, the numerical advantage wont be much advantageous!

Thinking of all these conclusions, Nagato more and more felt that his initial absurd idea might just be true Yama might just indeed be his so-called Natural Enemy!
