"This chakra..."
Somewhere in the ninja world, Madara Uchiha, who was searching for the ruins of the Land of Ancestors, turned his head and looked in a certain direction, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief. He muttered, "What the hell? That kid's chakra instantly surpassed mine, Toneri Otsutsuki's, and Hashirama's... Where is that place, and what happened?!"
As questions flooded his mind, Madara Uchiha was about to activate his Perfect Susanoo and fly towards Izayoi's location.
But the next second, he stopped that thought.
With Izayoi's current chakra intensity, if he went there in person, there might be a huge battle, and it might even draw out Toneri Otsutsuki.
Madara Uchiha, unsure if the two were allied, wasn't confident he could defeat them both.
Now was not the time for kings to meet.
So, Madara Uchiha gave instructions to the Wood Clone monitoring Black Zetsu, telling the Wood Clone to take Black Zetsu there to investigate.
...
"Such terrifying chakra, this is... Izayoi's chakra!"
In Amegakure, Nagato, who had regained his sight after transplanting new eyes, looked towards the Demon Country and muttered, "Not only is it high-intensity natural energy, but there's also a special kind of energy... What kind of energy is that? It can reach this place from such a distant location, as if it's right nearby!?"
"This kind of chakra is even more astonishing than a Tailed Beast," Konan said with a look of surprise.
If even the combination of Nagato and Konan had such a reaction, there was no need to mention the Akatsuki members.
"Is this the owner of Orthodox Wood Release? Is the God of Shinobi's strength also this terrifying?" Sasori of the Red Sand sighed slightly. "First the moon was cut, then the rise of a Wood Release ninja. I thought this era was decided by Nagato and Toneri Otsutsuki, but I didn't expect it to evolve into this situation!"
"So... so terrifying chakra, I feel like Jashin has descended!"
Even the idiot Hidan was scared by this chakra that seemed to affect the entire world. He couldn't help but seriously doubt Kakuzu, "Kakuzu, did you really fight the First Hokage? To survive the God of Shinobi, are you hiding your strength?"
"I did fight Hashirama Senju, but his chakra was nowhere near this terrifying!" Kakuzu looked solemnly towards the Demon Country and said in a deep voice, "This kind of chakra has surpassed creatures like Tailed Beasts. If I remember correctly, Konoha's Wood Release ninja only graduated from the Ninja Academy two years ago. At that age, he possesses chakra that surpasses Madara Uchiha, Toneri Otsutsuki, and even the leader. What secret is hidden within that kid?"
...
"Hehe... As expected, everyone in the ninja world underestimated you, Izayoi-kun."
In the Land of Rice Fields, Orochimaru muttered with shock and excitement, "To remain calm in the face of Uchiha Obito and the Akatsuki leader, and to have such extraordinary combat power at this age, you truly know the truth of this world and hide unknown secrets!"
"Now that you've finally obtained what you wanted, have you decided to join the stage of those two?"
...
"No... no way?!"
In the Water Country's Hidden Mist Village, Mei Terumi stood on the rooftop of the Mizukage building, her beautiful eyes trembling as she looked towards the Demon Country. Her reaction was even more exaggerated than the Akatsuki members, and her voice trembled as she said, "The Water Country is so far from the ninja continent, why did that chakra reach here? And it's so strong. If it were on the ninja continent, how terrifying would this chakra be?"
"Izayoi, what happened to him?"
Just as exaggerated as Mei Terumi's reaction were the ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village.
At this moment, even without appearing or engaging in an earth-shattering battle with enemies, Izayoi still became the center of the world, the focus of the ninja world.
Similarly far from the ninja continent and shielded by a powerful barrier, Isshiki Otsutsuki also lost his elegant demeanor at this moment. He looked towards the Demon Country and muttered, "Such powerful natural energy, similar in nature to that woman Kaguya's son, but slightly different... This chakra signature is neither that of Madara Uchiha who awakened the Rinnegan, nor that of Toneri Otsutsuki on the moon. Besides those two, are there unknown powerhouses in the ninja world?"
As if thinking of something, Isshiki Otsutsuki's face turned ugly as he muttered to himself, "After a thousand years, such power has appeared again. It seems I have to hide again, how hateful!"
...
"This... this is Hagoromo's power?!"
Black Zetsu, who was merged with Madara Uchiha's Wood Clone, looked towards the Demon Country with the Wood Clone, his heart in turmoil.
If he weren't afraid of being detected by Madara Uchiha, Black Zetsu's expression at this moment would definitely be one of shock and disbelief.
How was this possible?
Didn't Sage of Six Paths Mode require a Sage Body?
Besides Hagoromo, the only person in this world who had the potential to obtain this power was Asura, who inherited the Sage Body.
And for a thousand years, only Asura had briefly obtained this power.
Even Hashirama Senju, who was more outstanding than Asura, couldn't obtain such an ability.
As the one who understood Asura and Indra the most, as long as their reincarnations grew to a certain extent, Black Zetsu's perception would definitely be able to sense Asura and Indra's chakra.
It was precisely with this perception that Black Zetsu was able to accurately find Asura's reincarnation among the Senju clan and the Uzumaki clan.
With Izayoi's strength, if he were Asura's reincarnation, Black Zetsu would have sensed Asura's chakra long ago.
But Black Zetsu was absolutely certain that there was no Asura's chakra within Izayoi.
The same was true for Nagato.
If there were no surprises, Asura's reincarnation should be the current Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
Because there was a thousand-year-long fated battle between Asura and Indra.
Until they reconciled, their chakra would continue to reincarnate.
If Indra's reincarnation died prematurely, Indra's chakra would definitely not reincarnate into the next generation of the Uchiha clan prematurely, but would wait for Asura's reincarnation to die and reincarnate together into new descendants, and vice versa.
Each generation of Asura and Indra's reincarnations would not only be similar in age but also very close, or deeply entangled.
This generation's Asura reincarnation was either Izayoi or Uzumaki Naruto, there would definitely not be a third person.
But now, someone who was not Asura's reincarnation had obtained the power of Sage of Six Paths Mode.
How could Black Zetsu not be terrified?
"Could it be Hashirama's contingency plan, or has his soul interfered with the world of the living?" Black Zetsu analyzed in his mind, feeling even more panicked.
The Rinnegan, the Tenseigan, the Sage of Six Paths Mode... these powers from different dimensions had appeared simultaneously in this era, each choosing a different host. This was even more terrifying than the era of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.
If these three were to engage in a massive battle, this continent might be torn apart.
Just then, a scene that made Black Zetsu's face turn pale with fright appeared.
Madara Uchiha's Wood Clone suddenly unleashed its Perfect Susanoo, soaring into the sky and flying towards the Demon Country.
"Lord Madara, are you going to war with Konoha's Wood Release ninja?" Black Zetsu quickly advised, "We are just a Wood Clone and a will avatar. We are no match for Izayoi. Let's have the White Zetsu clones gather information first."
"It's fine. I'm just going to observe that brat up close," Madara Uchiha said with a faint smile. "Anyway, you are immortal. Even if you die or are sealed, my main body can still create you with Yin-Yang Release. What is there to fear?"
"Heh heh... you're right," Black Zetsu chuckled in agreement, but sneered inwardly.
Arrogant fool. Once you're taken care of, I won't give you a second chance to monitor me.
...
Izayoi didn't know that the moment he entered Sage of Six Paths Mode, he caused a sensation throughout the world.
At this moment, Izayoi was in a profound and mysterious state.
Looking at the violently surging magma underground, about to erupt, Izayoi simply stomped his foot lightly. The power of Yin-Yang Release seeped into the ground, and the volcanic eruption immediately calmed down like a soothed wild lion.
The violently surging magma and the cracks caused by the tremors all returned to their original state.
Yes, even the cracks in the mountain were automatically repaired.
Hinata, who had activated her Byakugan, and Shion, who was weakly leaning in Hinata's arms but not unconscious, didn't notice this.
Only Izayoi, even without activating his Tenseigan, could clearly 'see' such a scene.
If the commotion caused by the fusion of Izayoi's Sage Mode chakra and the Miko's power before entering Sage of Six Paths Mode had shaken the entire world, then after entering Sage of Six Paths Mode, Izayoi now felt no different from an ordinary person.
Just like Shion's Miko power, it couldn't be perceived or seen without activating Sage Mode and ultimate dōjutsu.
Izayoi's compatibility with natural energy had reached its peak, completely merging with nature.
Without reaching this dimension of perception and dōjutsu, one simply couldn't perceive or discover Izayoi's power!
"Is this the Sage of Six Paths Mode?"
Izayoi raised his hands and looked at them, muttering in his heart, "It's completely different from the Tenseigan Chakra Mode. The difference is too great!"
The Tenseigan Chakra Mode currently had only one ability: it made it easier to use the Chakra Rosary.
Without activating this mode, Izayoi could still condense the Chakra Rosary, but it was far less efficient in speed and quantity compared to the Tenseigan Chakra Mode.
In that form, Izayoi was constantly consuming chakra, and the only benefit was the Chakra Rosary.
However, the benefits of the Sage of Six Paths Mode were numerous.
To describe the Sage of Six Paths Mode in three words, it was... a stat monster!
The original work's evaluation of Uzumaki Naruto's Sage of Six Paths Mode was 'a divine realm bestowed by the ancestor of shinobi, touching the power of all things, capable of controlling the myriad phenomena.'
In this state, a person's perception, reaction speed, taijutsu speed, strength, the power of their ninjutsu, and chakra reserves would all receive a dimensional increase.
Super Kage-level Uzumaki Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha were instantly killed by Madara Uchiha with just one Rinnegan, even without him becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.
However, Uzumaki Naruto in Sage of Six Paths Mode, without even stacking Nine-Tails Mode, could kick Truth-Seeking Balls and perceive the existence of Limbo shadows.
But the strongest part of this ability was that it allowed one to experience the flow of all life, reaching a profound understanding of the world's structure. One could communicate with others without violating reason, connect their chakra, allowing the other party to perceive their thoughts and true feelings, and become their companion.
Communicating in the mental space connected by chakra, resolving conflicts and hatred between each other – this was the method the Sage of Six Paths used to create a world of peace.
The result, of course, was failure.
But even if it was a failure, it was the failure of a god's experiment.
The Sage of Six Paths Mode was the power of a god, corresponding to Six Paths level powerhouses.
Why was Izayoi so certain?
Because the moment he entered Sage of Six Paths Mode, a notification sound rang in his mind.
Summoning his personal panel, one of Izayoi's red entries underwent a subtle change.
[Sage Body (Red) (Rainbow)]
This dual-color display wasn't the first time Izayoi had seen it, and he knew why it was displayed this way.
"I have an idea I want to confirm," Izayoi murmured.
Then, greenish-blue chakra surged out, quickly covering Izayoi's body, and he instantly entered Tenseigan Chakra Mode.
A pair of dragon horns also grew from his forehead, leaving Shion completely stunned.
Even more incredible was that Izayoi's Tenseigan also underwent a slight change.
The Tenseigan, which was originally blue and white in the pupil, actually turned golden.
If it were golden yellow, it would simply be a miniature version of the giant Tenseigan.
Izayoi didn't notice the change in his eyes.
After stacking the Tenseigan Chakra Mode on top of the Sage of Six Paths Mode, he fully unleashed the Tenseigan's long-range vision ability. A god's-eye view instantly enveloped the entire Shinobi World, and even the countless islands outside the ninja continent.
Immediately, Izayoi used Chakra Perception, simultaneously stacking the Sage of Six Paths Mode's sensing ability on top of it.
A completely different scene from before appeared.
Previously, Izayoi could only see the quantity and strength of chakra.
But now, Izayoi saw various energy fluctuations.
Life fluctuations, chakra fluctuations, animal fluctuations, and so on...
It was as if the structure of the world had been analyzed by his eyes.
Aside from Black Zetsu, even the White Zetsu clones using the Mayfly Technique were now exposed to Izayoi's eyes.
Izayoi felt no joy at all about cracking the Mayfly Technique.
Like a god looking down on all things, Izayoi's gaze, combined with the Sage of Six Paths Mode's ability to sense the flow of all life, quickly scanned the entire Shinobi World.
Suddenly, Izayoi's gaze stopped on an island.
Izayoi reached out and placed his hand on Hinata, injecting a little chakra into her body to connect with her chakra and form a mental space, where he instructed her on some matters.
Outside, Izayoi used the Flying Thunder God Technique to send both Hinata and Shion back to their home in Konoha.
The next second, Izayoi deactivated the Tenseigan Chakra Mode and closed his Tenseigan, instantly disappearing from the volcanic cave.
When he reappeared, Izayoi was floating above the sea.
Then, he flew rapidly in a certain direction.
Before long, Izayoi arrived above the island he had seen earlier.
He shot down towards a large mountain below. A Truth-Seeking Ball floating beside Izayoi turned into a black beam of light and shot down.
With a crack, a large number of cracks appeared in the space, then turned into chakra and dissipated.
In front of the Truth-Seeking Ball, which could destroy all creation, barriers were insignificant.
The large mountain, which was originally covered by a barrier and looked unremarkable on the outside, suddenly underwent significant changes, showing many signs of scientific modification.
And the black beam of light that penetrated the barrier still didn't stop, quickly hitting the mountain body, and then flashing with dazzling white light.
Izayoi, on the other hand, controlled the other eight Truth-Seeking Balls, quickly liquefying and merging them together to form a huge black sphere, wrapping himself inside.
Boom----
The small sphere bloomed with white light even more dazzling than the sun.
Then, an earth-shattering explosion erupted, and the white light instantly spread and engulfed the entire mountain body.
The white light came and went quickly, leaving no residual power at all, and soon dissipated.
However, what also disappeared was the massive mountain with its hidden depths.
On the island, a surprisingly large basin appeared, but there was no rubble (rubble - rubble/rubble - rubble).
Because all creation had turned into nothingness!
The huge black sphere returned to eight Truth-Seeking Balls floating around him. Izayoi stared at the basin below, as if waiting for something.
However, no beam of light shot up into the sky.
Izayoi murmured, "Was I still too late?"
Being too late meant that Isshiki Otsutsuki had escaped.
Just now, with the Sage of Six Paths Mode stacked on the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, Izayoi used the characteristics of the Sage of Six Paths Mode and the Tenseigan's long-range vision and perception abilities to successfully locate Isshiki Otsutsuki's chakra.
It was a pity that the range of the Truth-Seeking Balls was limited, otherwise Izayoi would have already revealed the power of the Tenseigan and directly used the Heavenly Transfer Technique to teleport the Truth-Seeking Balls here, launching a surprise attack on Isshiki Otsutsuki with an air-dropped explosion that destroyed all creation.
Unexpectedly, even after deactivating the Tenseigan Chakra Mode and using the Sage of Six Paths Mode's ability to blend with nature to fly over, he was still a step late.
It was indeed not simple for a high-ranking Otsutsuki who had survived since the time of Kaguya Otsutsuki and the Sage of Six Paths and was already working on a resurrection plan.
"However, this chakra signature has been marked by me," Izayoi thought to himself. "Unless you keep shrinking yourself with divine techniques, once your chakra recovers to its normal size, you will still be exposed to my eyes."
Immediately, Izayoi was about to instantly disappear.
The next second, a sacred white photon suddenly emanated from his body.
His golden pupils, terrifying chakra, and the eight Truth-Seeking Balls floating around him all disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Losing the floating ability that came with the Sage of Six Paths Mode, Izayoi didn't use the power of flight to stay airborne. Instead, as he fell downwards, he looked down at his hands, muttering in confusion, "It's only been a few minutes, and my chakra has barely been consumed. Why did this power suddenly disappear?"
Landing steadily, Izayoi summoned his personal panel and checked the entry for the Sage Body.
[Sage Body (Red)]
The Sage Body, which was originally two-colored, had returned to its original state.
Staring at the Sage Body, whose font and level were both red, Izayoi was lost in thought.
In the original work, Uzumaki Naruto's Sage of Six Paths Mode was also a temporary ability.
In contrast, Sasuke Uchiha's six-tomoe Rinnegan was a permanent ability.
They were both inheritors of the Sage of Six Paths' power. As Hagoromo Otsutsuki, who chose Asura as the successor to the Shinobi Sect, even if he was biased, he would favor Asura's reincarnation more.
But it was a fact that Uzumaki Naruto lost the Sage of Six Paths Mode.
In the original work, the setting for the Sage of Six Paths Mode was that this technique was not something a ninja could choose and learn; rather, the technique itself chose the ninja.
The conditions required to master this technique were "a firm belief to face any hardship head-on, and the drive to never give up."
However, in Izayoi's eyes, this was nonsense.
Because Hagoromo Otsutsuki permanently possessed this power.
Considering the two-color grade displayed by the Sage Body just now, the system's prompt sound, and the example of Nagato wearing the Tobi armor and his Wood Release also becoming a two-color entry,
Uzumaki Naruto's inability to permanently obtain this power was due to two reasons: First, he didn't have an all-attribute constitution. After the Six Paths power disappeared, he couldn't use the power of Yin-Yang Release and lacked the ultimate seven nature transformations. Second, his Sage Body hadn't been developed to its peak. Asura and Indra had reconciled, their chakra no longer reincarnated and possibly returned to the Pure Land, causing Uzumaki Naruto to completely lose the opportunity to elevate his Sage Body to an extra-dimensional level.
In contrast, Izayoi's talent configuration was no less than Hagoromo Otsutsuki's.
The ultimate seven nature transformations, complete Yin-Yang Release, a Sage Body that could carry natural energy, the power of a Miko that could replace reincarnation and destiny guidance, and the Chakra Rosary that assisted Yin-Yang Release and unified all these into 'two extremes returning to one'... Izayoi had them all!
Therefore, he instantly entered the Sage of Six Paths Mode.
Logically, this mode should have lasted for a long time.
But now, it only lasted for a few minutes before automatically deactivating.
Undoubtedly, something was wrong.
What caused the system's reaction was the Sage Body, and what carried natural energy was also the Sage Body. The answer was undoubtedly the Sage Body.
Izayoi didn't stay put thinking of a solution but instantly teleported away.
Having lost the Sage of Six Paths Mode, he needed to activate his Tenseigan to contend with Isshiki Otsutsuki.
Izayoi, unsure if Isshiki Otsutsuki was still in the same spot, didn't want to be ambushed.
However, Izayoi didn't notice.
After his Sage of Six Paths Mode automatically deactivated, a soul form appeared out of thin air and had been watching him from the sky.
With a pair of horns on his head, unlike his brother's and mother's white hair, he had short coffee-colored hair. He wore a white robe with six black magatama-shaped patterns on his chest, a red whirlpool symbol on his back with nine magatama arranged in a grid below it, and nine black spheres floating around him.
This soul form was none other than Hagoromo Otsutsuki, who founded the Shinobi Sect, was revered as a god by all ninjas, and was also known as the Ancestor of Shinobi and the Sage of Six Paths.
Unlike Hamura Otsutsuki's astonishment and praise for Izayoi as a miracle of the Otsutsuki clan,
Hagoromo Otsutsuki, who silently watched Izayoi, remained expressionless.
There was no surprise or shock in his Rinnegan, no wariness or hostility, only a calmness like still water.
No one knew what this true God of Shinobi was thinking.
If Izayoi could see him, he would be delighted rather than surprised.
He didn't appear earlier but only after the Sage of Six Paths Mode was deactivated, indicating that the Sage of Six Paths' strength and realm could not remain invisible in the face of the Sage of Six Paths Mode.
Losing the mystery of a high-dimensional being was like a BOSS in a game revealing its health bar.
For a player, even if it's a god, as long as its health bar is revealed, it means it can be killed.
If one had a one-hit kill cheat, they could even instantly kill a god!
