Worthy of note, summoning creatures through the Animal Path require no blood sacrifice or hand seals. The Animal Path can also summon people, which requires hand signs, as in the case of Nagato's Paths and [[Konan]]. Tactics wise, the Animal Path's primary role in battle appears to consist on overwhelming multiple opponents with a barrage of summons. In the case of Nagato, having originally channelled the Animal Path through the corpse of a [[First Animal Path (character)|Fūma clan shinobi]] and then the corpse of a [[Second Animal Path|young woman]] in life, the creatures summoned appeared to underwent the same modifications as his [[Paths of Pain]], having [[chakra receiver]]s embedded in their bodies. As they also display the Rinnegan, the creatures serve as extensions of Nagato.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 551, page 6</ref> During the [[Fourth Shinobi World War]], Nagato used his summons for transport before being rejuvenated to move on his own power. ;Summons: * [[Giant Drill-Beaked Bird]] * [[Giant Multi-Headed Dog]] * [[Giant Snake-Tailed Chameleon]] * [[Giant Panda]] * [[Giant Ox]] * [[Giant Rhino]] * [[Giant Crustacean]] * [[Giant Centipede]] * The other [[Six Paths of Pain|Paths of Pain]] * [[Konan]] == Influences == Buddhists believe in a realm of existence of the non-human animals on Earth, an unhappy plane of rebirth which revolves around ignorance, instinct, survival of the fittest, and servitude to humans. == References == <references/> [[es:Camino Animal]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
