The improved [[Wind Release: Rasenshuriken]] was avoided by three Paths of [[Pain]], but the [[Human Path (character)|Human Path]] was vaporised when it expanded. The [[Second Animal Path (character)|Animal Path]] engaged [[Naruto]] (who was running out of [[senjutsu]] chakra). Through a diversionary tactic devised by [[Shima]], [[Fukasaku]] and [[Gamabunta]], it was incapacitated by Naruto's [[Sage Technique: Spiralling Serial Spheres]] in Gamabunta's mouth, who was launched at the two by Fukasaku. It could not dodge thanks to the Six Paths' block of vision through Shima's [[Sage Art: Wind Release Dust Cloud]]. The [[Yahiko|Deva Path]] then tried to assault Naruto, who barely manages to fend off, which was turned to its disadvantage when Fukasaku [[Reverse Summoning Technique|reversed-summoned]] one of Naruto's [[Shadow Clone Technique|shadow clone]] that was collecting [[Senjutsu#Usage|nature energy]] in [[Mount Myōboku]], restoring Naruto into [[Sage Mode]]. When Naruto attempted to finish the Deva Path with another Rasenshuriken, the [[Preta Path (character)|Preta Path]] immediately jumped to [[Blocking Technique Absorption Seal|absorb it]], having been repaired by the [[Outer Path]]. With this setback, Naruto devised a three-step diversionary tactic to permanently disable the [[Naraka Path (character)|Naraka Path]]. With Deva Path regaining its power, he used [[Shinra Tensei]] to repel Naruto and send Gamabunta, [[Gamaken]] and [[Gamahiro]] flying beyond [[Konohagakure]]'s borders.
