Synopsis
Using the full power of the Eight-Tailed Beast, Killer Bee was able to decimate Taka. Fearing the deaths of his teammates, Sasuke unleashed his newly acquired Mangekyō Sharingan to suppress the beast's influence and supposedly capture Killer Bee. When the Fourth Raikage, leader of Kumogakure and Killer Bee's brother, learned of this, he decided to convene the five Kages to discuss how to deal with the growing threat that is Akatsuki. As word of the meeting was sent out, Akatsuki attempted to extract the Eight-Tailed Beast from Killer Bee's body, only to discover that the body had been a fake and that Killer Bee was still roaming free. Elsewhere, Naruto finally mastered senjutsu, and began to apply its teachings to some of his old techniques. While he did so, Pain's six bodies arrived in Konoha and attacked the village in search of him. Taken by surprise, Konoha quickly mobilized its forces, with Kakashi even engaging two of Pain's bodies at once.
