The dark spiritual world.
Water droplets fell, creating large ripples.
Uzumaki Naruto slowly rose from the water, touching his chest in shock, incredulously lifting his head to speak, "Am I... not dead?"
"What do you think death is?"
An old man holding a staff, floating above the Truth-Seeking Ball, spoke slowly, mumbling and muttering, "In my world, the ethical views on death seem sowhat different from yours. Don’t easily consider yourself dead, try to be a bit more positive, newbie..."
"You are..."
"That’s a question, but it’s been too long. I don’t know if the na you know matches the one I was given..."
After speaking, the old man slowly turned around, revealing his true face: "I am the embodint of peace and order, nad Hogoromo!"
"..."
Uzumaki Naruto fell silent.
Just as the old man was about to speak again, Uzumaki Naruto suddenly realized sothing and said in a low voice, "Wait, before Uehara killed , he said I’d et soone... Are you... the Six Paths Sage?"
After speaking, Naruto’s gaze stayed firmly on the old man before him, his forehead gradually showing tension, "Rinnegan... the legendary Sage Eye... It does indeed seem to be the Six Paths Sage?"
"It’s wonderful that you know my na."
The Six Paths Sage slowly nodded, his Rinnegan gradually focusing, "That Uehara guessed you’d et ... I didn’t expect that in this era, there’d be a ninja as powerful as us."
"That guy, huh..."
Uzumaki Naruto slowly nodded, recalling every encounter with Uehara Naraku, he said in a serious tone, "Truly extraordinary!"
"A truly enigmatic person!"
The Six Paths Sage tapped the water surface with his staff, revealing the image of a squinting, smiling figure, Uehara Naraku.
The Six Paths Sage frowned, muttering, "This little fellow, with just his power, has cultivated enough to match and even find my traces... Truly unimaginable."
The Six Paths Sage murmured to himself, "Why does Uehara Naraku want to et ? To inquire about the Ten-tailed and Infinite Tsukuyomi? Or does he wish to challenge a stronger opponent? It shouldn’t be..."
This is indeed a perplexing issue.
The Six Paths Sage thought about it, attributing Uehara Naraku’s desire to et him to seeking the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
After all, it seems that Uehara Naraku is looking to deliberately fall into the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
"Ah, what?"
Uzumaki Naruto scratched the back of his head and furrowed his brow, "Anyway, Uehara has always been strong. We thought we could catch up, but it seems we’re only growing further apart..."
"Indeed."
The Six Paths Sage calmly spoke to Uzumaki Naruto, "But Uehara Naraku is too arrogant. No matter how strong he gets, he cannot defeat another person in this Ninja World..."
After finishing, the Six Paths Sage looked at the silent Uzumaki Naruto, slowly tapping the water surface with his staff, and the reflection of a woman appeared.
"My mother, Otsutsuki Kaguya."
The Six Paths Sage looked at Uzumaki Naruto, beginning the tale, "My mother, Otsutsuki Kaguya, ca to this planet from a distant place..."
This story is rather strange.
A woman from afar who, intending to quell wars, consud the Chakra Fruit, gaining imnse power, yet subsequently sought to rule the Ninja World, ultimately sealed away by her sons.
"My mother possessed mighty Chakra and an immortal body; Uehara Naraku absolutely cannot defeat her. She transcends everything in this world; even I could only seal her..."
Upon finishing, the Six Paths Sage looked at Uzumaki Naruto and spoke in a serious tone, "No matter how strong Uehara Naraku becos, he cannot surpass my mother’s power... because the ancestor of all Chakra in this world is my mother."
"Huh?"
Uzumaki Naruto couldn’t help scratching his head, looking up at the Six Paths Sage and asking, "If Uehara Naraku can’t win, then this world..."
"It depends on you all..."
The Six Paths Sage’s face revealed a hint of concern, even a hint of gravity in his eyes, "If my mother can absorb the Chakra from Uehara Naraku, she might grow even stronger."
"Honestly..."
Uzumaki Naruto slowly shook his head, speaking in a serious tone, "Even as I try my best, I can’t keep up with Uehara Naraku. If even he can’t defeat the Chakra Ancestor, I’ll fight to the death, but..."
"Don’t worry."
The Six Paths Sage slowly tapped the water’s surface with his staff again, revealing a smiling man, who spoke calmly, "You have my son Asura’s Chakra in you; it seems Uehara Naraku has discovered this too..."
"..."
Uzumaki Naruto fell into silence.
In another part of the spiritual world.
Another facet of the Six Paths Sage had just finished conversing with Uchiha Sasuke, recounting the story of Otsutsuki Kaguya and Indra.
This Six Paths Sage’s clone looked at Uchiha Sasuke in front of him and fell into contemplation, because Uchiha Sasuke seed to have long sensed Indra’s chakra within him.
Uchiha Sasuke didn’t care about any of it.
Uchiha Sasuke nonchalantly glanced at the Six Paths Sage, his eyes growing colder: "You just said so much, just to tell that my power cos from so Indra’s chakra, right?"
Uchiha Sasuke disdainfully curled his lips and said: "Uehara Naraku doesn’t have any chakra reincarnation in his body, right? It seems this chakra is clearly hindering from becoming stronger!"
"..."
The Six Paths Sage shook his head, and calmly said: "That’s because the true power within you has never been brought forth."
"Oh?"
Uchiha Sasuke’s eyes narrowed slightly as he asked: "If my power inside is brought forth, can I defeat Uehara Naraku?"
"Power is not the main condition for defeating enemies."
The Six Paths Sage slowly extended his palm, calmly saying: "Only unyielding will and understanding of others’ love..."
"..."
Uchiha Sasuke was slightly speechless.
Is this Six Paths Sage speaking seriously?
If power cannot defeat him, can love transform him?
That bastard Uehara Naraku has done all sorts of evil and absolute good deeds. Uchiha Sasuke really wants this Six Paths Sage to go out and see if he can transform that Uehara Naraku!
The Six Paths Sage flipped his palm, looking at Sasuke who wouldn’t relent towards Uehara Naraku, couldn’t help but say: "Moreover, Uehara Naraku is not the enemy you need to deal with. He won’t be much use in this final battle..."
"..."
Uchiha Sasuke couldn’t help but raise his head and look at the Six Paths Sage, suddenly curling his lips: "Six Paths Sage, can you be sure Uehara Naraku will definitely fall into Infinite Tsukuyomi?"
The Six Paths Sage slowly nodded, then said solemnly: "Only those with Rinnegan can avoid the light of Infinite Tsukuyomi. Uehara Naraku doesn’t have any of my bloodline or inheritance in his body. No matter how strong his power is, he might not escape Infinite Tsukuyomi..."
After saying this, the Six Paths Sage suddenly looked at Uchiha Sasuke and said seriously: "Perhaps you can consider saving him when Infinite Tsukuyomi cos, so that when Mother descends into this world, you’ll have an additional powerful combat force..."
"Haha..."
Uchiha Sasuke’s lips revealed a mocking smile, he said softly: "If I save him, after defeating Otsutsuki Kaguya, what if that guy Uehara Naraku deceives us again? He has quite a few precedents!"
Six Paths Sage: "..."
This question was really never considered.
But that shouldn’t be too likely, right? After going through the world’s crisis of destruction together, would we still turn on each other?
This Indra chakra reincarnate still lacks love in his heart...
The Six Paths Sage slowly raised his head, looking at Uchiha Sasuke, calmly said: "Then what do you want to do?"
Uchiha Sasuke was silent for a while, then suddenly lifted his head: "First tell us how to deal with Otsutsuki Kaguya!"
"...Alright."
The Six Paths Sage looked at Uchiha Sasuke, slowly nodded, and said calmly: "Extend your usual hand, this ti I won’t ignore the eldest son’s power, I will also entrust my power to Indra’s reincarnate."
"...Mm."
Uchiha Sasuke extended his left hand.
The next mont, the Six Paths Sage placed his palm on his hand, a massive godly statue lood behind him!
A crescent mark appeared on Uchiha Sasuke’s palm.
That was the Yin Power Seal bestowed to him by the Six Paths Sage.
In another spiritual space.
Uzumaki Naruto also slowly extended his right hand, receiving the Yang Power Seal and Six Paths Sage Art from the Six Paths Sage.
"Although I believe my power is enough to change everything..."
Uzumaki Naruto couldn’t help but furrow his brow, looking at the white sun symbol in his palm, then glanced at the Six Paths Sage: "But I feel like that guy Uehara Naraku still seems stronger than !"
"Heh..."
The Six Paths Sage chuckled lightly, saying in a often-repeated manner: "Sotis to resolve disputes between people, mutual understanding is all that’s needed..."
"..."
Uzumaki Naruto listened in silence for a while.
After a mont, Uzumaki Naruto slowly nodded.
"Mm, makes sense!"
After speaking, Uzumaki Naruto’s brows furrowed again: "But how Uehara thinks, I really can’t understand!"
