How did Naruto deal with Satori in the original work?
Satori instinctively dodges all attacks from anyone harboring fear or the intent to kill it.
Neither Killer Bee's Tailed Beast transformation nor Kakashi Hatake's Lightning Blade could hit Satori.
But Ryūzetsu was able to hit Satori using the Demon Lantern technique.
The premise for Satori's perfect evasion is fear of it or holding the intent to attack or harm it.
However, Ryūzetsu treated Satori as Muku, her former childhood friend; she had no fear of Satori, nor did she intend to kill or harm it.
She held the thought of persuading it and convincing the other party to return.
Naruto referenced Ryūzetsu's attack method, not treating Satori as an enemy, but as Muku who was trapped in darkness, to be able to attack Satori.
Therefore, if Ryou wanted to hit Satori, he couldn't attack with the intent to harm it; he had to treat it as a friend or partner.
Ryou then looked at Satori, hoping to find a trace of a the catgirl in Satori's body.
But unfortunately, there was none; there was no beauty in Satori's body at all.
Headless and eyeless, its whole body covered in black feathers, it was as thin as skin and bones; from a distance, it looked like a layer of black fur covering bones.
Ryou couldn't find a trace of beauty in Satori; it was like a black-feathered demon rushing out from hell.
With a flap of its wings, Satori released a Feather Attack at Ryou.
Suddenly, hundreds and thousands of feathers flew rapidly toward Ryou.
Ryou shouted: "Candy, iron sand!"
"Yes!"
Candy quickly formed hand signs and took out the iron sand previously sealed in the scroll.
Shukaku wasn't idle either, its palms forming hand signs to cooperate with Ryou in performing Magnet Release.
Under Ryou's control, clumps of black iron sand were summoned from the scroll, subsequently forming a black iron sand wall.
"Magnet Release: Great Sand Wall!"
Ryou used iron sand to create an iron sand wall to block the Feather Attack Satori unleashed.
Under the resistance of the iron sand wall, all of Satori's feathers were blocked.
Then Ryou formed hand signs, using the Magnet Release chakra created by Shukaku to launch an attack on Satori.
"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Drizzle!"
The massive amount of iron sand Candy took out formed countless fine needles under Ryou's control, flying toward Satori at extreme speed.
Ryou didn't just obtain the Magnet Release cultivation method from Sasori; he even obtained the Magnet Release techniques of the Third Kazekage and Fourth Kazekage.
Possessing the Magnet Release chakra created by Shukaku, combined with hand signs, he could perform the Third Kazekage's signature Magnet Release.
Ryou's chakra was at the Tailed Beast level; with the support of such massive chakra, the Iron Sand Fine Needles attacking Satori numbered in the hundreds of thousands or even millions.
Grand and majestic, they directly filled the sky.
Ryou laughed loudly: "Satori, aren't you good at reading minds? I want to see how you dodge such a large-scale move!"
"Ridiculous..."
A trace of disdain appeared at the corner of Satori's mouth; it then vibrated its wings slightly and suddenly spiraled sideways, the Iron Sand Fine Needles whistling past its wing membranes.
In the next instant, Satori suddenly turned and climbed, forcefully spiraling out an ethereal arc within the airtight rain of needles.
Its movements were extremely agile, sometimes skimming the ground like a swallow through the sky, sometimes stopping abruptly, hovering for a moment in mid-air before charging out diagonally.
The iron sand woven into a web of death failed to hit it in the slightest.
Every change in direction Satori made was without warning or hesitation, as if it had already seen through all trajectories.
Such flight was no longer like movements a biological creature could make; it was instinct, an instinct just like eating or drinking.
No one in the Shinobi World could perform such flight stunts, not even Six Paths Madara.
"How dare you act tough in front of me, how bold!"
"Magnet Release: Senbonzakura!"
Ryou was furious; he then waved his hands, and the Iron Sand Fine Needles transformed into a dense flock of birds under Ryou's control, closing in on Satori's direction.
The Iron Sand Fine Needles from all directions blocked all of Satori's movements; now Ryou would see how Satori escapes?
This time, Satori didn't show off its superb flying skills; its two wings rose and rotated at ultra-high speed, knocking away all of Ryou's Iron Sand Fine Needles.
After breaking through Ryou's iron sand attack, Satori turned into a black shadow, launching a high-speed assault toward Ryou's location.
The tomoe in Ryou's Sharingan rotated rapidly, and a chakra giant wearing Karasu Tengu Armor appeared on Ryou's body.
"Wood Release: Susanoo!"
It wasn't over yet; with the support of Ryou's Wood Release chakra, the lower half of the Susanoo was supported by Wood Release, forming a hundred-meter-tall Rattan-armored Samurai.
Ryou's Susanoo drew the Gunbai from its back and fanned hard toward Satori, releasing a Wind Pressure Cannon.
Satori immediately sensed Ryou's Wind Release attack and performed an ultra-agile sideways flight, making a wide turn to dodge Ryou's Wind Pressure Cannon.
Satori hovered in the air, looking at Ryou inside the chakra giant below, its sunken eye sockets furrowing slightly.
Although it could clearly read Ryou's attack intentions, its own attacks could not break through Ryou's Absolute Defense.
Moreover, the opponent's chakra seemed to be exceeding the limit.
Does a human have this much chakra?
"Satori, look at me, look at me, align your gaze with mine!"
Ryou concentrated most of his chakra into his Sharingan, preparing to perform Genjutsu to make Satori fall into a deep sleep.
But when Ryou tried to make eye contact with Satori, he found that the opponent had no eyes; without eyes, Satori couldn't make eye contact with the Sharingan.
Ryou's Sharingan Genjutsu couldn't control it either.
Then he could only transmit Genjutsu via chakra threads, using contact to manipulate its spirit.
Ryou unleashed strings of chakra threads.
Satori sensed Ryou's attack intention and flapped its wings, agilely dodging Ryou's Genjutsu-type chakra threads.
Ryou frowned slightly: "It seems I must find a way to restrain my hostility toward it!"
"Candy, you take control of the Susanoo. Shukaku, use Magnet Release to block Satori's movements."
"I need to calm my heart and eliminate my hostility toward Satori!"
Ryou sat cross-legged inside the Susanoo, trying to steady his heart; if he thought of nothing, Satori wouldn't be able to read his thoughts.
This was the method Gamabunta told Naruto for dealing with Satori.
Black and White Zetsu appeared on a wall of Hozuki Castle, activating the Mayfly Technique, and the head from the pitcher plant part poked out.
White Zetsu sighed with some hardship: "Finally arrived at Hozuki Castle. Why is the location of this Hozuki Castle so tricky, actually chosen on a lonely island in the middle of the sea?"
"The Mayfly Technique is not easy to use for traveling across the open sea!"
