Through the Asura Path, the user is able to form four additional arms and two additional faces, as well as a folded, serrated blade-like sash around their waist. These additional appendages, as well as the user's body as a whole, are augmented with a variety of mechanical weaponry, which they can access at will. The user can [[Flaming Arrow of Amazing Ability|fire their forearms as long-range projectiles]] or [[Flaming Arrow Missiles|pull them off to reveal and fire a cluster of segmented missiles]] at targets. They are also able to protrude a set of flexible blades and drills or mechanical tendrils from their arms and [[Chakra Propulsion|quickly propel themselves forward with a burst of chakra from their feet]]. The user can also [[Asura Attack|release a powerful chakra blast]], which is capable of destroying numerous buildings at once, either by forming a cannon from one of their arms or opening the crown of their head. Nagato's Asura Path's raw physical power was enough to rip Jiraiya's arm off and crush his throat with basic taijutsu, as well as to throw the [[Second Animal Path (character)|Animal Path]] all the way into [[Konohagakure]] from the outskirts of the village. Additionally, the Asura Path was able to survive otherwise fatal damage due to its mechanised insides. All of these abilities befitted the "warring demon" name that the Asura Path held, whilst giving it a considerably higher degree of versatility than the other [[Six Paths of Pain]] had (aside from the [[Yahiko|Deva Path]]). == Influences == In Buddhism, the Asura realm is the plane of semi-divine warring demons which people are reincarnated in due to actions based on jealousy, struggle, combat or rationalisation in a previous life. Following a common depiction of Asura, this ability allows the user to possess six arms and three faces, each of which display a different emotion. Like Deva, Asura are also a race of supernatural beings. They are featured in Hinduism as a type of demon and are known to live a life pursuing power. Both depictions play in the abilities of the Asura Path. == References == <references/> [[es:Camino Asura]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
