"Then how did you arrive in the shinobi world?"
Naruto's voice was calm, but his gaze was sharp.
Amado did not hesitate.
"We ca by spacecraft. However, after entering this planet's atmosphere, the vessel suffered severe damage."
He pushed up his glasses.
"The ship's technology represents the pinnacle of Sanzu Origin's scientific developnt. Unfortunately, my expertise lies in biological sciences—genetic engineering, cellular enhancent, chakra-based life modification. I am not proficient enough in advanced chanical engineering to fully restore it."
Naruto nodded thoughtfully.
That was reasonable.
Interstellar spacecraft were not sothing a single scientist could simply repair. Such technology required cooperation across multiple scientific disciplines—energy systems, propulsion physics, materials science, spatial navigation arrays.
Even in Naruto's past life, he rembered stories of so-called "genius" researchers who seed to know everything—yet even they could not casually rebuild cutting-edge machinery alone.
After Amado's explanation, Naruto was certain he was still withholding information.
But he did not press.
Everyone carried secrets.
In the end, Amado was allowed to settle in Konoha under a formal agreent.
He would cooperate with the village—providing technological advancents and intelligence regarding the Ōtsutsuki. In exchange, he required two things:
Naruto's protection.
And the opportunity to eliminate as many Ōtsutsuki as possible.
As for Kawaki, Naruto arranged for him to enroll in the Ninja Academy as a transfer student.
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki had already laid an exceptional foundation within Kawaki's body. His physical strength, chakra capacity, and compatibility with Kāma far surpassed ordinary children.
However, in terms of age and education, Kawaki was currently two grades below Boruto.
After receiving personal guidance from Naruto, Boruto's strength among the younger generation had beco nearly unmatched.
Ti passed quietly.
Five days later.
Naruto stood atop the Hokage Monunt, overlooking the village.
"It's ti," he murmured.
"Inheriting the knowledge of reincarnation that Sasuke obtained from the future… I've not only comprehended it fully, but refined it."
His eyes glead faintly.
"My understanding of life and death, yin and yang, and the cycle of souls has reached a new height."
Today, he would establish the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Preparations had been extensive. Sealing arrays were carved across the land. Barrier teams stood ready. Sensory units monitored fluctuations in chakra across dinsions.
Many powerful shinobi had gathered—not to interfere, but to witness a miracle.
Naruto's presence had changed.
The aura of a sovereign clung to him more heavily now. Yet what unsettled even the strongest among them was not his authority—
—but his unfathomable power.
Very few truly understood how strong Naruto had beco.
Orochimaru, with Amado's assistance, had broken through the boundaries of the Power of All Creation—gaining partial mastery over life reconstruction through chakra manipulation.
Taking advantage of this breakthrough, Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama had stepped into the Six Paths realm.
They now stood second only to Naruto and Sasuke.
Hyūga Hinata and Hyūga Neji had both successfully awakened the Tenseigan, their chakra purity and ocular prowess reaching terrifying levels—ranking just below Madara and Hashirama.
Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage, had refined the Flying Thunder God Technique to an entirely new dinsion. By leaving ntal imprints within space itself, he could traverse the void without traditional kunai markers.
Uchiha Shisui had taken a different path entirely.
Through pure kenjutsu, he stepped beyond conventional limits—condensing what could only be described as "sword bones," forging a transcendent body tempered by blade intent.
His combat power rivaled Madara's.
Might Guy continued to advance steadily. With the Eight Gates released, his strength would likely not fall behind Madara.
Rock Lee had reached a similar height.
Through relentless training, Lee condensed a unique martial chakra manifestation—Indomitable Will.
This "Martial Divine Power" forced his body into an overclocked state, unlocking physical limits while using sheer willpower to maintain structural integrity.
Pain remained.
But his will ford a closed loop of enhancent—stimulating his body, stabilizing it, then pushing it further.
The shinobi world had grown stronger as a whole.
Under Naruto's reforms, no shinobi under twelve were permitted to enter active combat units.
Only those who reached jōnin-level strength before that age were exempt.
Child soldiers were no longer acceptable.
The era had changed.
At that very mont—
In the Pure Land.
A figure, ethereal yet dignified, gazed upon Naruto with complicated emotion.
"You have surpassed this old man."
It was the Sage of Six Paths, Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo.
The foundation of the Six Paths of Reincarnation had to be built upon the Pure Land itself. Without its spiritual infrastructure, even Naruto's current strength would struggle to construct a true cycle of souls.
Naruto stood calmly before him.
"Sage," he said respectfully.
Beside Naruto stood Uchiha Sasuke.
Behind them were Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama, Orochimaru, and Amado.
Orochimaru and Amado were present to observe and record. Data regarding soul chanics, chakra reincarnation flow, and dinsional anchoring would be invaluable.
No one else had been permitted to enter.
This was not a spectacle.
It was a turning point in existence itself.
Sasuke's Rinnegan glowed faintly as he looked at Naruto.
"Naruto," he said quietly, "are you ready?"
Naruto closed his eyes briefly.
When he opened them again—
Six tomoe shimred within his pupils.
"I've never been more ready."
The Pure Land was not a realm the living could enter freely.
It was, in essence, a world of death—a dinsion where souls gathered after the end of mortal life.
Naruto stood suspended in the vast, silent expanse. The Pure Land resembled an endless, desolate starry sky. Ethereal chakra drifted like cosmic dust, faint and cold. No wind. No sound. Only stillness.
He slowly exhaled.
"I'm ready."
His voice was steady.
"My future self once told —establishing the Six Paths of Reincarnation and perfecting the laws of this world would bring a blessing from the world itself."
"That blessing is what allowed him to stand shoulder to shoulder with the true elites of the Ōtsutsuki Clan."
Naruto clenched his fist lightly.
"This is the path to narrowing the gap."
"Right now, I stand at the peak of the Six Paths level. But the demigod realm… I've only glimpsed it faintly."
His eyes sharpened.
"When I complete the Six Paths of Reincarnation, most of the power I gain will beco the authority governing reincarnation itself. But even the residual blessing will be enough for to step into the demigod realm."
There was unmistakable anticipation in his voice.
Originally, according to Sasuke's knowledge from the future, the establishnt of reincarnation should have happened nearly a year earlier. However, during initial attempts, powerful beings associated with the Shinigami had been stirred.
Though no catastrophe had occurred, Naruto chose caution.
He would not allow unpredictable variables to interfere with sothing so fundantal.
Now, his strength had reached the true pinnacle of the Six Paths realm.
In the future tiline, his counterpart had only been in the late Six Paths stage when he attempted this—barely touching the threshold of the demigod realm during the process.
But this ti…
He would go further.
"Creating a reincarnation system is equivalent to reshaping the laws of existence itself."
Orochimaru's golden pupils glead.
"To think Naruto-kun has reached such a level…"
Only soone who deeply studied life and death understood the sheer difficulty of constructing reincarnation.
Uchiha Madara stood with his arms crossed, silent as always. His gaze held only intensity.
Senju Hashirama, on the other hand, smiled broadly, pride evident in his expression.
Sasuke's Rinnegan shimred faintly, prepared to stabilize spatial distortions if necessary.
Amado and Orochimaru had already activated complex recording arrays to capture chakra fluctuations and dinsional feedback.
Naruto raised one hand slightly.
"Step back."
The others retreated—though "behind him" ant over a thousand ters away within the Pure Land's vastness.
Naruto spread his arms.
He rose higher into the void.
His eyes closed.
In his mind, countless insights regarding life, death, yin-yang release, and soul transmigration surged like a tidal wave. The knowledge inherited from the Sage of Six Paths, the comprehension from his future self, and his own enlightennt fused together.
An indescribable aura radiated from his body.
Then—
BOOM!!!
The once-silent Pure Land roared.
Thunder echoed across the endless void.
Dark lightning flickered violently around Naruto, splitting the sky like cracks in reality itself.
The dormant souls scattered throughout the Pure Land trembled instinctively.
It felt like the end of the world.
Or perhaps—
The beginning of a new one.
Deep within the farthest reaches of the Pure Land, two colossal figures slowly opened their eyes.
They were Shinigami.
One of them bore a striking resemblance to the Death God whose stomach Orochimaru had once cut open to release the sealed Hokage.
An ancient, bone-deep tremor rippled through their being.
It was not fear.
It was anticipation.
Sothing monuntal was being born.
Their hollow eyes pierced through layers of the Pure Land and fixed upon Naruto.
Upon the living man, who dared to rewrite death itself.
