Chapter 26 - Chapter 26: Feel the pain

Bleach World

Sōsuke Aizen sat casually on his throne, a faint trace of disappointment in his voice.

"It seems this Pain's strength isn't as great as I initially believed."

Captain-Commander Yamamoto narrowed his eyes.

"The others may be weak, but the one floating in the sky remains calm. That suggests he still has a trump card."

Ichigo watched the battle carefully and said to Hime after a moment of thought, "That man named Garp is incredibly old, yet he fights like someone in his prime. His stamina doesn't resemble an elderly man at all—it's more like a young warrior with endless energy."

"These people from the Pirate World all seem abnormal," he added. "Even Whitebeard, who was already ancient, never showed signs of exhaustion. They're monsters."

JoJo World

Kakyoin adjusted his glasses, having already analyzed the situation.

"Aside from the one in the sky, the other five Pains can't match Garp in raw power. If they don't attack together, they have almost no chance of winning."

Joseph watched Garp's overwhelming presence and sighed.

"He never trained Hamon, yet he looks even more energetic than Jotaro. If only I hadn't given it up…"

Polnareff's eyes gleamed with excitement.

"If Armament Haki could be wrapped around Silver Chariot's sword, even DIO would fall to a thousand piercing strikes."

DIO smirked as he observed the battle.

"Ho ho… this old man is impressive. Fighting for so long without slowing down. Still, he's just a bit inferior to me, DIO."

Naruto World

Everyone watched as Garp dominated the battlefield, their hearts shaken by his overwhelming power.

Naruto shouted, "This old man is insane! His stamina might even be better than mine!"

Tobirama frowned slightly.

"Only my elder brother could compare to that kind of endurance. The Pirate World truly breeds monsters."

Konan glanced at Nagato, worry creeping into her expression.

Hidan snorted. "This old guy's as tough as you, Kakuzu."

Kakuzu replied coldly, "I have more lives. His stamina, however, is genuinely terrifying."

After knocking one opponent aside, Garp turned his attention to the remaining four Pains. Aside from the Deva Path, none of them posed a significant threat on their own.

Their only hope lay in surrounding him and attacking together.

When they rushed forward, Garp showed no panic—if anything, he looked pleased.

"This saves me the trouble of chasing you," he muttered.

He stood calmly as all four attacked at once. Sharing vision, their coordination was flawless.

Yet Garp smiled faintly, weaving through their attacks as if playing a game. No matter how tightly they closed in, they couldn't land a single blow.

Seeing Garp deliberately act strained, the four Pains assumed he was finally struggling. They pressed closer, aiming for a decisive strike.

The Human Path moved first, stretching out his hand toward Garp's head, intent on devouring his soul.

That moment was exactly what Garp had been waiting for.

He dropped low, shifted direction instantly, and smashed the Human Path apart with a single punch.

Only then did the remaining Pains realize they had been lured into a trap.

Garp's fists surged with terrifying force as he moved to crush the remaining three.

But before he could finish—

"Shinra Tensei!"

A violent repulsive force blasted him away once more.

Garp rolled to his feet and brushed dust from his coat.

"Hmph. You react fast."

After losing the Gedo Path, Nagato had devoted his full attention to Garp. Though Garp's plan was flawless, Nagato caught it just in time.

With only four Pains remaining, eliminating even one became far more difficult.

Garp quickly realized that Shinra Tensei made close combat impossible. If he wanted to win, he would have to wait for Pain to approach him.

Nagato, however, saw through that as well.

Unable to fight up close, he had the Animal Path summon wave after wave of spirit beasts—centipedes, lobsters, grotesque birds—charging relentlessly.

Garp snorted and shattered each summon with brutal punches.

As the battle dragged on, Nagato's weakened body began to fail him. He coughed violently, his mental state deteriorating as he struggled to control the remaining Pains.

The moment the Animal Path faltered, Garp vanished.

In an instant, he appeared before her and ended her with a single punch.

The other two followed just as quickly.

In the blink of an eye, only the Deva Path remained.

Garp crossed his arms and looked up at him with a faint smile.

A chill ran through Nagato.

He couldn't understand it—every attempt to attack or retreat had been anticipated, as if Garp were reading from a script.

The Deva Path spoke slowly. "You resemble Whitebeard. Both of you react to our actions as if you already know them."

From start to finish, Garp had relied solely on his fists. Nagato could tell—this was an unparalleled master of physical combat.

But he also knew that Garp's strength could not be so simple.

Garp chuckled.

"This old man isn't foolish enough to explain himself just because you ask."

His expression hardened.

"But you already know about my Armament Haki. Come—experience its power."

He kicked off the air using Moonwalk, launching himself upward.

"Shinra Tensei!"

Bang!

Garp was slammed back into the ground. Sand and dust erupted outward, forming a small storm.

With only the Deva Path remaining, the pressure on Nagato eased significantly.

Now, he would crush Garp with overwhelming force.

The Deva Path continued rising, arms spread wide.

Garp stared up at him, fists clenched.

"Let's see if the Naruto World's attacks are as strong as I expect."

The Deva Path spoke solemnly.

"Feel pain. Think about pain."

"Accept pain. Understand pain."

"Those who do not know pain cannot understand true peace."

"From this moment on—let the world feel pain!"

"Shinra Tensei!"
