I'm Not Naruto, But I Got a Better Bloodline-Chapter 355: The Descent of the Six Paths, Six Paths Madara

Chapter 355: Chapter 355: The Descent of the Six Paths, Six Paths Madara

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 become even more displeased.

"Ah, I really shouldn’t have come so quickly."

The Sage of Six Paths was full of unspoken bitterness; sometimes 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 same 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 moment, his chakra spread out continuously, and in the blink of an eye it seemed 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 some things he could not really say—given the current situation, it seemed 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 transformed into a streak of light and vanished before his eyes. At that moment, he suddenly remembered something.

"Hey, don’t go out like this—"

But unfortunately, he realized that his words seemed to have come 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 meant one thing: his older brother had not concealed the fact that he was an "Ōtsutsuki"!

...

"Naruto! Sasuke!"

"Big brother."

On that battlefield that seemed 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 seemed 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 firmer 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 game—had dealt with the combined assault of the three Hokage and Uchiha Madara.

Although he seemed 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 extreme despair slowly rose within everyone’s hearts.

"Damn it—are we really going to be destroyed at the hands of someone like this?"

"Is there really no way to win...?"

As this despair spread, the morale of the Allied Shinobi Forces began to suffer a tremendous blow.

"Sasuke, Naruto..."

Even Kakashi’s expression turned ugly at this moment. 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 something he had never imagined!

"Everyone, don’t panic—we haven’t lost yet!"

Just then, Kakashi suddenly shouted loudly. His gaze seemed to grow resolute at this moment.

"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 moment 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 Mei spoke up immediately. Even Deidara looked far more serious at this moment.

"Just thinking about being destroyed by a guy like that makes me extremely 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 some time 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 moment, everyone’s gaze also became firm and resolute, because they had all thought of one thing.

If their homeland 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 some time 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 homeland is gone, what meaning is there in talking about anything else?" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"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 moment, they were all prepared!

"..."

However, when this scene fell into the eyes of Kitagawa Gen in the distance, it immediately left him somewhat dazed.

For a moment, 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 seemed 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 smeared 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 moment, Kaguya also sensed something.

"Hmph—so it really is him, after all!"

"Mhm. Barring any surprises, it’s him."

Kitagawa Gen nodded. After thinking for a moment, 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 me out first?"

Kaguya replied directly. But the moment she recalled how terrifying the one she was currently attached to was, she immediately 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 some reason, felt even more uneasy for a moment.

"Roar—"

Almost at the same time 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 moment, he did not care about any of that. There was only one thought in his mind!

"I must immediately become 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 something 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 came to a halt.

Immediately 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 come?"

The moment the Sage of Six Paths appeared, he sensed it immediately. 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 time 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 moment, Uchiha Madara’s body erupted with powerful chakra.

White Zetsu reacted quickly and exclaimed, "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 moment.

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 formed!

"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 transformed into a staff. He lifted his head, stared at Kitagawa Gen flying high in the sky, and let out a roar.

"This time, 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!"

"..."
