Since the Sage of Six Paths had decided to take action, he naturally would not delay any longer.
What was more, Kitagawa Gen could already be considered to have issued a “final ultimatum.” If things continued like this, who knew whether Kitagawa Gen would beco even more displeased.
“Ah, I really shouldn’t have co so quickly.”
The Sage of Six Paths was full of unspoken bitterness; sotis he even thought it might have been better not to have seen all of this at all.
At the very least, he would not have personally witnessed himself being misunderstood by the entire ninja world.
“Why are people’s hearts so restless?”
The Sage of Six Paths could not help but let out a sigh, yet even in his own heart he could not help but wonder whether he had thought this way back then.
Otherwise, it would not have led Kitagawa Gen to think in this direction now.
Even Senju Tobirama had made the sa conjecture, and had even led the entire ninja world to believe it.
“Big brother, let’s handle the important matters first.”
Hamura, standing to the side, could not help but give a reminder, with a trace of suppressed laughter still at the corner of his mouth.
“Right now, the ninja world needs a pillar. Aside from Gen, you are the best choice. And Gen’s identity has not yet been revealed, so…”
“As for what he will do, let’s wait and see how things develop.”
The Sage of Six Paths shook his head. At that mont, his chakra spread out continuously, and in the blink of an eye it seed as if it was about to cover the entire ninja world.
“However, from the current situation, it seems that he intends to completely eliminate those three Ōtsutsuki. In that case, no matter what he does, we will cooperate with him fully.”
“Mm.”
Hamura nodded. There were so things he could not really say—given the current situation, it seed that whatever Kitagawa Gen wanted to do, they would not be able to stop him anyway.
And just as he was thinking this, the elder brother beside him suddenly transford into a streak of light and vanished before his eyes. At that mont, he suddenly rembered sothing.
“Hey, don’t go out like this—”
But unfortunately, he realized that his words seed to have co too late. He had already left.
“Damn it—if he goes out like this, I’m afraid the misunderstanding will only get worse.”
Hamura felt a headache coming on. With his older brother looking like this, he really was not much different from Kitagawa Gen’s true form.
And that only ant one thing: his older brother had not concealed the fact that he was an “Ōtsutsuki”!
...
“Naruto! Sasuke!”
“Big brother.”
On that battlefield that seed like hell itself, Namikaze Minato and Senju Tobirama dragged their half-bodies as they arrived at the place where the three had fallen.
Looking at the three who were barely clinging to life, their eyes were bloodshot, while pain and anger continuously gathered in their hearts.
Their peripheral vision could not help but lift toward the human figure floating in the sky; that fury and hatred were beyond words.
And aside from those emotions, there also seed to be a faint trace of despair—as if, even after giving everything, they still could not win.
But that emotion also quickly dissipated, turning instead into an even firr conviction to defeat a powerful enemy!
“Naruto… Sasuke…”
“First Hokage-sama.”
Not only them—far away, the Allied Shinobi Forces had naturally seen everything clearly as well.
That ultimate power—like a ga—had dealt with the combined assault of the three Hokage and Uchiha Madara.
Although he seed to have gotten a little more serious, the result was that in the blink of an eye he had beaten Naruto, Sasuke, and the First Hokage together into a near-death state.
“Can we really defeat an enemy like this?”
Similar rhetorical questions kept echoing in the hearts of the Allied Shinobi Forces, and that extre despair slowly rose within everyone’s hearts.
“Damn it—are we really going to be destroyed at the hands of soone like this?”
“Is there really no way to win…?”
As this despair spread, the morale of the Allied Shinobi Forces began to suffer a trendous blow.
“Sasuke, Naruto…”
Even Kakashi’s expression turned ugly at this mont. Guy, Jiraiya, and Tsunade were even more silent.
And Orochimaru’s forehead was already beaded with cold sweat—this kind of terrifying power was truly sothing he had never imagined!
“Everyone, don’t panic—we haven’t lost yet!”
Just then, Kakashi suddenly shouted loudly. His gaze seed to grow resolute at this mont.
“Gen is still here. As long as he successfully deals with those guys, there will definitely still be a turning point. Are we really going to give up like this?”
“That’s right—we still have Gen!”
Jiraiya also clenched his fists at this mont and shouted loudly.
“Pull yourselves together and do what you can. As long as we hold out until Gen finishes dealing with the enemy, that will be enough!”
“That’s right—we absolutely cannot give up!”
Terumī i spoke up imdiately. Even Deidara looked far more serious at this mont.
“Just thinking about being destroyed by a guy like that makes extrely annoyed. I’d rather do as Gen said and use him to prove my art—yeah!”
“I absolutely will not retreat.”
Gaara was also flying in the air, and his gaze was filled with resolve.
“Even if it costs my life, I am willing to buy so ti for Gen. The ninja world will absolutely not compromise!”
As one Kage after another, along with powerful jōnin, spoke up, the morale of the Allied Shinobi Forces was gradually stabilized.
And at this mont, everyone’s gaze also beca firm and resolute, because they had all thought of one thing.
If their holand could not be defended, then they would inevitably die. Since suffering that kind of end was unavoidable, they might as well fight these Ōtsutsuki to the end!
Even if it was only to buy so ti for the Fifth Hokage, Kitagawa Gen—even if they did not know whether this Fifth Hokage would have a solution afterward—they were willing to do so regardless.
“If the holand is gone, what aning is there in talking about anything else?”
“Damn it—let’s fight them to the end!”
Courage truly is the anthem of humanity.
Especially since these people were all ninja—in this mont, they were all prepared!
“…”
However, when this scene fell into the eyes of Kitagawa Gen in the distance, it imdiately left him sowhat dazed.
For a mont, he could not even tell who the real villain was.
“Hm?”
But just as he was thinking, a streak of multicolored radiance suddenly covered the entire battlefield.
That surging chakra seed to condense into wave after wave of tides, and without anyone noticing, it had already enveloped everyone.
Moreover, this chakra gave Kitagawa Gen a strangely familiar feeling.
“The Sage of Six Paths, huh.”
Kitagawa Gen finally nodded. He really had been worried that the old man might throw in the towel and quit.
Fortunately, the old man’s moral standards were still quite high. Even after being sared like this, he would still properly do what he was supposed to do.
If it were Kitagawa Gen himself, he probably really would not have been able to hold it together.
“Hagoromo’s chakra?”
At this mont, Kaguya also sensed sothing.
“Hmph—so it really is him, after all!”
“Mhm. Barring any surprises, it’s him.”
Kitagawa Gen nodded. After thinking for a mont, he continued speaking.
“And, barring any surprises, his younger brother is here as well. Your family is about to be reunited.”
“If you’re talking about a reunion, shouldn’t you let out first?”
Kaguya replied directly. But the mont she recalled how terrifying the one she was currently attached to was, she imdiately changed the subject.
“Also, the Ten-Tails is almost ready. Aren’t you going to pay attention to that?”
“The Ten-Tails?”
Kitagawa Gen turned his head and swept his gaze over, then laughed.
“Yes. I’ve been waiting for it to be ready all along. That way I can release you, and I can also cultivate my Divine Tree—killing several birds with one stone, isn’t it?”
“…”
Hearing Kitagawa Gen say on his own initiative that he would release her, Kaguya, for so reason, felt even more uneasy for a mont.
"Roar—"
Almost at the sa ti as their exchange, Uchiha Madara completed his hand seals.
At that instant, the Ten-Tails, which had already been wailing, suddenly erupted with a soul-shaking roar!
“Quiet down, beast!”
Uchiha Madara showed no courtesy at all. He could feel the Ten-Tails’ resistance, and likewise its struggle.
But at this mont, he did not care about any of that. There was only one thought in his mind!
“I must imdiately beco the Ten-Tails’ jinchūriki. I must obtain the Sage of Six Paths’ power. I must avenge Hashirama!”
As for how the others were doing, he did not care in the slightest. But Hashirama dying like this right before his eyes was sothing he absolutely could not accept!
“Even if there will still be another clash afterward, even though we finally joined forces, even though we finally put aside our mutual grudges—why did it have to turn out like this?”
Uchiha Madara roared in his heart, and the Ten-Tails also struggled madly.
Those ten massive tails lashed about wildly, and in an instant sand and stones flew everywhere.
But Uchiha Madara did not care at all. His hand pressed down firmly on the Ten-Tails, and his Rinnegan locked onto it.
Amid the flying rubble and billowing dust, the Ten-Tails suddenly ca to a halt.
Imdiately after, its body began to collapse inward, and its form slowly started to writhe along Uchiha Madara’s arm.
“Uchiha Madara succeeded.”
Black Zetsu murmured. Yet as he pondered, he could not help but raise his head and look toward the distance.
“It's Hagoromo’s chakra—has that bastard co?”
The mont the Sage of Six Paths appeared, he sensed it imdiately. But with the Sage of Six Paths here, he felt even more worried.
“That bastard Hagoromo is going to make Mother the vanguard to resist the Ōtsutsuki!”
Black Zetsu clenched his teeth. At this point, he could not afford to think too much.
Thinking too much was useless anyway. It was better to keep the Ten-Tails under control and be ready to make a move at any ti to control Uchiha Madara.
As long as these two things were still under his control, he could definitely prevent Mother from being summoned!
“I absolutely won’t let you succeed. I absolutely can’t let Mother be released—you're an insidious, cold-blooded bastard.”
Black Zetsu muttered, and at that very mont, Uchiha Madara’s body erupted with powerful chakra.
White Zetsu reacted quickly and exclaid, “S-so strong—what intense chakra!”
The Ten-Tails was still struggling, but Uchiha Madara remained unmoved as he continuously absorbed the Ten-Tails.
And as he absorbed it like this, the Ten-Tails’ struggle grew weaker and weaker.
Slowly, amid the billowing dust, there was no trace of the Ten-Tails left!
Boom—
With a rumbling burst of chakra, the dust was shaken and scattered at this mont.
A figure appeared—dressed in white, with a bony armor plate on his forehead like a forehead protector, and with six dark magatama marks at the collar!
“Ah!”
Uchiha Madara let out a roar, and the chakra on his body continued to thunder.
And behind him, black Truth-Seeking Orbs appeared one after another, until a full nine had ford!
“So this is Ōtsutsuki-level power…”
Uchiha Madara felt the power within his body. He raised his hand and summoned a Truth-Seeking Orb to fly over.
In the next instant, the Truth-Seeking Orb transford into a staff. He lifted his head, stared at Kitagawa Gen flying high in the sky, and let out a roar.
“This ti, I will definitely deal with you. I will definitely…”
“Avenge Hashirama!”
Along with his roar, the entire earth trembled—and in the distance, another roar suddenly appeared!
“Another Ōtsutsuki?!”
“…”
“Damn it—get ready to fight!”
“…”
