Chapter 51: Know Pain!

Six figures appeared in front of the group. Each of them had orange hair and wore the Akatsuki attire. Naruto and the other Shinobis narrowed their eyes.

"Looks like you're here, Nine-Tails." Said the Deva Pain.

"Who are they, Naruto?" Ichigo asked.

"They are known as the Six Paths of Pain. They each posses the Rinnegan, one of the Three Great Eye Techniques." Ichigo nodded as he stepped forward and said, "I'll be your opponent!" The Deva Pain looked at Ichigo and then back at Naruto.

"I am not interested in you." He said. "We are only here for the Nine-Tails." The Asura Pain rocketed towards Naruto with a blade but was cut down by Ichigo.

"Don't make me repeat myself again." Ichigo said. "I'm your opponent!" The Deva Pain narrowed his eyes at the Substitute Shinagami and said, "Very well then. We shall deal with you and then take the Nine-Tails."

"Everyone! Stand Back!" Ichigo said. Everyone nodded and went back a few.

"Summoning Jutsu!" Said the Animal Pain. A giant Rhino appeared and charged at Ichigo. Ichigo blocked it with his zanpakuto but the force the Rhino was putting was making him skid backwards.

"Damn you!" Ichigo quickly pushed it back with his zanpakuto. "Getsuga Tenshou!" Ichigo sends a wave of spiritual energy at the Rhino and it vanished at the contact.

"Summoning Jutsu!" The Animal Pain made two Summoning Jutsus and a giant Ox and giant Dog appeared running towards Ichigo. Ichigo shunpoed out of the way and reappeared above them. He then slashed the Ox, who disappeared and then slashed the dog but instead of disappearing, it multiplied.

"What?" The dogs attacked Ichigo as he fended himself with his zanpakuto but each time he cuts, the dog grows in numbers.

"Ichigo!" Naruto called out. "You have to finish off the one who summoned them." After hearing that Ichigo then charged at the Animal Pain.

"Getsuga Tenshou!" Ichigo fired the attack at the girl but the Preta Pain appeared in front of her and stuck both his hands out. He then absorbed Ichigo's attack. "What?!"

"Ichigo that guy absorbs Ninjutsu!" Naruto said.

"Now you tell me!" Ichigo said as he blocked off each dog that came at him. Ichigo then shunpoed behind the Preta Pain and tried to slash him but he dodged it. Ichigo kept swinging numerous slashes but each of them are dodged. "How can he predict my movements?"

"Also Ichigo! Each Pain are visually linked together so you have to break the link." Naruto said.

"How much will you forget?!" The Preta Pain was about to punch Ichigo but Ichigo shunpoed and reappeared in a distance. "If they're visually linked then here's something they can't see." Ichigo then pointed his zanpakuto forward. "Bankai!" Ichigo was engulfed with spiritual energy. When it ended he now wears a white undershirt beneath his opened black shihakusho which is held by three X-shaped marks. He wears black gloves with white X marks on the gloves and forearms. Ichigo's zanpakuto becomes curved at the end and has three protrusions along the blunt end near its tip. "Tensa Zangetsu!" Ichigo then shunpoed and quickly cut down the Preta Pain with one swing of his zanpakuto.

"What is that?" Neji asked.

"That is Ichigo's Bankai." Rukia said.

"It's different from the one before." Robin said.

'He has gotten faster to the point we can't see him.' Deva Pain said.

"Getsuga..." Ichigo readied his zanpakuto. "Tenshou!" A huge black wave was sent towards the Pains. Three of the Pains jumped out of the blast's way but the Human Pain could not make it in time and was hit by the spiritual attack. The Human Pain could not survive the attack and disappeared. Ichigo then jumped the air and sent another wave. "Getsuga Tenshou!" This time Ichigo sent it towards the ground and a huge explosion happened as smoke covered the area.

"Summoning Jutsu!" The Animal Pain summoned a giant Drill-beaked bird and got on its back and went towards the sky. Once she was out of the smoke, she looked around and did not see the Shinigami.

"Getsuga Tenshou!" She turned around and saw a black wave heading towards her. It hit the bird and disappeared as she was falling into the smoke. When she stood up see was getting cut. She looked around and couldn't see anything as Ichigo kept slicing her. Ichigo then appeared in front of the Animal Pain as she widens her eyes. Ichigo slashed her diagonally as blood squirted out of her wound. When the smoke cleared, the two Pains see the Animal Pain unconscious on the floor behind Ichigo.

"I am impressed that you were able to defeat four Pains by yourself. But you will not win as you do not know pain." The Deva Pain said.

"Pain? What are you talking about? I get hurt all the time in battles." Ichigo said with an eyebrow raised.

"That is not pain. I shall show you true pain."

Ichigo charged at Pain and said. "Getsuga Tenshou!" Ichigo shot the wave at the Deva Pain but was absorbed by the Preta Pain. "What?! But how?!" He then looked over to the Naraka Pain who had some kind of human face with purple flames around it next to him.

"Oh yeah, that Pain is able to resurrect the dead." Naruto shouted.

"Is there anything else you should tell me?!" Ichigo yelled at Naruto. 'I got to do something about that resurrecting guy and then handle the absorbing guy.' Ichigo then appeared next to the Naraka Pain and swung his zanpakuto but he dodged it. 'Damn! I forgot about that Rinnegan link.' Ichigo then used shunpo and created dozens of images of himself around the three Pains.

"Wow! Ichigo's fast!" Tsuna said. The Pains looked to see if they could find where Ichigo was going to strike. Then the images stopped and Ichigo was no where to be seen.

"Where is he?" Said the Preta Pain.

"Getsuga Tenshou!" The Naraka Pain was hit by a Getsuga Tenshou that came from the air. Ichigo then appeared on top of him as he stabbed the Pain with his zanpakuto, making sure that he was down.

'An attack from the air?' The Deva Pain said. Ichigo then charged towards the Preta Pain and began slashing him but every attack was dodged or blocked. Ichigo then swung his zanpakuto at the Pain horizontally but the Preta pain jumped back a few.

'Now's my chance!' Ichigo kept swinging horizontally and fired a 'Getsuga Tenshou' at the Deva Pain. "I got you now!" The Deva Pain stuck his hands out.

"Almighty Push!" The attack was repelled. Everyone, but the Konoha Shinobis, eyes widened.

"He repelled the attack?!" Nami said.

"Um, I keep forgetting but I promise you this is the last one. He has the power to repel and attract things. You only have five seconds to attack until he does another one.

"Naruto! I'm going to kill you after this!" Ichigo said. "If that's the case then." Ichigo then charged towards the Deva Pain but the Preta Pain got in his way. Ichigo shunpoed as the Pains tried to look for him. The Preta Pain's eyes widened when Ichigo appeared behind him and stabbed the Pain.

"Bastard..." The Preta Pain said as he fell to the ground. Ichigo now stared at the last Pain.

"You're the last one." Ichigo said as he shunpoed behind Pain and tried to slash him but Pain blocked it with a black rod. He tried to stab Ichigo but Ichigo got out of the way and began to attack Pain. Pain kept dodging every slash Ichigo swings at him while Ichigo dodged every stab Pain tries to get him with. "Universal Pull!" Ichigo then felt like he was being pulled and was sent towards Pain. Ichigo cried out as he was stabbed in the shoulder with a rod.

"Ichigo!" Everyone yelled out. Pain then grabbed Ichigo by the neck and slammed him against a tree and stabbed his hands to the tree so he couldn't move.

"You have done well to fight me. But in the end, you could not win." Pain said. He got out a black rod and was about to kill Ichigo until a yellow shield appeared between them, breaking Pain's rod. Ichigo and Pain looked to see Orihime standing in front of the group.

"O-Orihime.." Ichigo said.

"Universal Pull!" Orihime was then pulled towards Pain.

"Orihime! Run!" Ichigo yelled out. Everyone tried to go and reach her but it was too late. Pain stabbed a rod through Orihime and dropped her to the ground with the rod still in her body. Then, Pain got another rod and stabbed her again, making everyone eyes widen with shock and anger. Ichigo looked with widened eyes at Orihime's body as a pool of blood started to form. "ORIHIME!"

"How does it feel to have someone close to you die right in front of your eyes?" Pain said. "Out of love, sacrifice is born, hate is born, and we are able to know pain." Ichigo still continued to look at Orihime's body with shock in his eyes and anger. Black spiritual power starts to engulf Ichigo. Everyone is forced to back up from the pressure. Orihime was getting blown away but Luffy caught her. When the spiritual power died down, everyone was shocked. Ichigo has long straight hair, reaching down to his waist, and a Hollow hole with markings stretching from the hole across his chest and shoulders. He has small furry red tufts, two starting from his collarbone and stretching around his neck and one each on his wrists and ankles, as well as white skin. He has a Hollow mask that has four spike-shaped marks, two of them stopping by the forehead and the other two stretching past the eyes and teeth, going past his chin and joining the marks on his chest. It also has two horns facing forwards. The hollow Ichigo got his zanpakuto and quickly appeared in front of Pain and slashed him across the chest.

To Be Continued...


Next Time: Ichigo's Pain!

I don't know if Ichigo still has his hollow powers but since the hollow inside Ichigo actually turned out to be Ichigo's real Zangetsu then I think Ichigo still has the powers but I'm not sure. But anyway I hope you enjoyed the chapter and please review of what you think of it. Until next time. Bye!
