"As expected, there's no way to reason with him. Since that's the case, we have no choice but to force you to go and save your older brother."
Tobirama formed hand seals, attempting to forcibly control Madara Uchiha.
"Don't be silly!"
"Tobirama, even if you are the creator of the Edo Tensei, you cannot control me."
Madara Uchiha's eyes widened, and the Rinnegan appeared.
Even though it was just a fake Rinnegan created by the Edo Tensei, it still made Tobirama Senju feel an incredibly terrifying sense of oppression.
While Tobirama was stunned, Madara Uchiha quickly formed hand seals.
"Edo Tensei — Kai!"
After severing his connection with Tobirama, Madara burst through the door: "Hashirama, I will go to save him, but I have other matters to attend to before that."
"Since that Naruto Uzumaki is about to unleash the Infinite Tsukuyomi, you should try to resist him!"
"Even if it only weakens his power by a portion, it will still count as a contribution you have made."
Madara Uchiha and Obito shared the same idea.
The Infinite Tsukuyomi can only be performed by the user; it's a very complex skill that others cannot master.
By the time Tobirama Senju came to his senses and tried to stop Madara, he had already vanished.
Did I overestimate myself?
Tobirama Senju deeply resented his own powerlessness. As the creator of the Edo Tensei technique, he was unable to control the people he had reincarnated.
...
On the other side.
Sasuke Uchiha was supposed to wait with Tobirama Senju for Madara Uchiha's resurrection.
However, Jiraiya brought back a new prophecy, which he stated directly concerned the life and death of the ninja world.
Therefore, Sasuke Uchiha first discussed the new prophecy with Jiraiya.
"You mean I have to die once to save the world?"
Sasuke Uchiha raised his head slightly and looked at Jiraiya.
He was no stranger to death; in his future memories, he had died once before, and then he encountered the legendary progenitor of ninjas, the Sage of Six Paths.
"good."
"The Ōgama Sennin said that a white light is about to envelop the world, and the Child of Prophecy has completely succumbed to darkness."
"Only a boy who awakens his blood-red eyes, who faces death and is reborn, can usher in hope and save the world."
Jiraiya also told Sasuke Uchiha about the Ōgama Sennin's prophecy.
Perhaps sensing that the world was about to perish, the Ōgama Sennin unusually revealed the complete prophecy.
He didn't just say half of what he was saying before falling asleep.
"The Sage of Six Paths".
At that moment, the image of the progenitor of ninjas appeared in Sasuke Uchiha's mind.
"Let's get started!"
After a moment of silence, Sasuke Uchiha nodded to Jiraiya.
This is the last hope; only by obtaining the power of the Six Paths can he fight against Naruto.
Only by defeating him head-on can we bring him back to the right path.
Are you really sure?
"What if the prophecy is wrong..."
Seeing Sasuke Uchiha's resolute expression, Jiraiya hesitated instead.
If the prediction is wrong, they will lose a significant amount of combat power for nothing.
"I believe in that old toad's prophecy, and besides, only I can save Naruto, right?"
Sasuke Uchiha had no idea whether his death would bring forth the Sage of Six Paths.
But if this could make Naruto turn back, he was willing to give it a try.
"You're still thinking about saving him even now?"
"It's truly a stroke of good luck for the Uchiha clan to have someone like you."
As Jiraiya spoke, his kunai pierced Sasuke's heart.
Pfft!
The pain emanating from his chest caused Sasuke Uchiha's vision to gradually blur.
"Sage of Six Paths, you absolutely must come out!"
These were Sasuke Uchiha's last thoughts before he completely lost consciousness.
Tick-tock!
When everything went black and consciousness became blurred, the sound of dripping water could be heard in the mind's space.
Immediately, Uchiha Sasuke lifted his heavy eyelids and vaguely saw an old man with his back to him, sitting cross-legged and floating in the air.
The appearance of the Sage of Six Paths requires several conditions to be met.
First, the chakra of all the tailed beasts is fused into one body.
Secondly, there is the chakra of Indra and Asura.
Finally, the old man who delivers the pendant needs the guidance of reincarnation and fate to appear.
Of course, this is only under normal circumstances, but what we are seeing now is clearly an abnormal situation.
Therefore, the conditions for this to occur can be handled flexibly.
If Sasuke Uchiha is eliminated, the Sage of Six Paths can manifest using Indra's chakra.
"Sage of Six Paths, I've finally seen you again!"
Before the Sage of Six Paths could turn around for him, Sasuke Uchiha spoke first.
Sage of Six Paths: "..."
This doesn't seem right!
Why did he react this way when he saw me?
"Give me your power! I need to stop Naruto from going down the wrong path."
Because he had experienced this once before from his future self's memories, Sasuke Uchiha showed him no mercy.
Sage of Six Paths: "..."
no!
Although I do want to give you power, this is still not right!
What are you still standing there for?
"I don't have time to listen to your nonsense about sealing your mother."
"Is it the left hand or the right hand this time? Or both hands at once?"
"Naruto has already become like that, you probably won't give him any more power, right?"
"Then concentrate all your power on me!"
As he spoke, Uchiha Sasuke walked directly in front of the Sage of Six Paths and stretched out his two hands.
Sage of Six Paths: "..."
Is it a bit too unrefined of me to entrust my power to you so easily?
I am the progenitor of ninjas, the Sage of Six Paths!
Why do I seem to have become a tool for you, someone who only provides you with strength?
"Young man, I see in you the chakra of my child, Indra."
Finally, the Sage of Six Paths spoke.
He thought for a moment and felt that he couldn't just give away his power so easily.
We must say something to instill in Indra's reincarnation a sense of awe towards us.
"Sage of Six Paths, do you know what's happening in the outside world?"
"The ninja world is already in grave danger, and the Infinite Tsukuyomi is about to be activated again."
"Your old, immortal mother is about to be resurrected, and you still have the mind to spout this useless nonsense to me?"
"Every second you waste now increases the danger to the outside world."
"Now, immediately, give me your power. Only I can stop Naruto."
"Also, tell me how to kill Black Zetsu completely. I must kill him completely!"
Uchiha Sasuke showed absolutely no intention of communicating with the Sage of Six Paths.
His goal was simple: power!
He needs immense power, enough to stop Naruto!
"I am the embodiment of peace and order, the founder of the Ninja Clan, Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, also known as the Sage of Six Paths!"
The Sage of Six Paths ignored the anxious Sasuke and began to introduce himself.
