NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 264: The Purpose Of Sage Of Six Paths
Sage of Six Paths seemed to see Mizuki's concerns and said: "I will teach you how to enter and exit this barrier."
Mizuki said: "Thank you!"
After learning how to enter and exit the barrier from Six Paths, Mizuki gave it a try and successfully came outside the barrier.
Mizuki separated out a few more Shadow Clone and said: "You guys set out immediately and find the toads that escaped. No one will be left alive."
It's a disaster if you keep it.
Now that you have taken action, let's kill them cleanly to avoid stumbling upon them later.
"As for the toads that have escaped to the so-called shelter, let's leave them alone for now. After all, I don't know how to enter the shelter."
"They're just hiding. If they come out to cause trouble, it won't be too late to clear them out."
The Shadow Clone used the Flying Thunder God Technique and left to hunt down the escaped toad.
Mount Myōboku has been destroyed, and Mizuki is planning to leave.
Just then, Sage of Six Paths stopped him.
"Mizuki, there is something I want to discuss with you!"
Mizuki asked: "What's the matter?"
Sage of Six Paths: "It's about the Fourth Ninja War."
Mizuki's expression remained unchanged and he said nothing.
Sage of Six Paths continued: "I have been observing you and found that you know many things, whether it is the past or the future, you know it."
"So you must know about the future Fourth Ninja War."
Mizuki: "So, what do you want to express?"
What does this mean, you praise me for how much I know?
Or do you think I know too much, are you angry and want to silence me?
Seeing that Mizuki didn't answer, Sage of Six Paths didn't care, and just said to himself: "There are some things I want to explain."
"The Fourth Ninja War was originally planned by Gamamaru and I to train top masters."
Mizuki chuckled in his heart.
To train top players?
It's obviously to train your two sons!
Looking at the Fourth Ninja War, it is actually the rise of Naruto and Sasuke.
Everyone else has become a stepping stone, only the two of them are getting stronger as they fight!
Sage of Six Paths continued: "The threat of the Ōtsutsuki has never gone away. Although the Ōtsutsuki have never come again in these thousands of years, I know that they will come sooner or later."
"I am dead and only my soul body is left. The three immortals of the three Summoning Holy Lands are also old. None of us have much fighting power. The great ninja world cannot produce a single Six Paths level fighting power."
"If this continues, the ninja world will be destroyed once Ōtsutsuki comes."
Mizuki nodded slightly, it was true.
If the Fourth Ninja World War hadn't given Naruto Sasuke a qualitative leap in strength, the following Ōtsutsuki Uashiki, Momoshiki, Golden Style, Ipshiki, etc. would definitely turn the Ninja World upside down, and no one could stop it.
If Nazusu hadn't had a battle at the Valley of the End after the fourth battle, cutting off one hand each and losing the yin and yang power given by Six Paths, he would definitely be stronger.
"Actually, I planned the Fourth Ninja War to find a suitable candidate to inherit the power before me."
"The original candidates were Naruto and Sasuke, but looking at it now, Naruto no longer needs my power, and Sasuke has also returned to the Pure Land."
Mizuki said: "In other words, there is no need for the Fourth Ninja War."
"No!" Sage of Six Paths shook his head and said: "It would be good to have two more masters in the ninja world. It would be a waste to keep the power I had during my lifetime."
Mizuki has no idea whether the Fourth Ninja War will begin.
It doesn't matter to him whether to fight or not.
But looking at the meaning of Sage of Six Paths, it seems that it is determined to start four battles, which makes Mizuki feel that the purpose of Six Paths is not simply to cultivate masters.
What else is his purpose?
In order to gain two more masters, he did not hesitate to secretly start the Fourth Ninja War.
Shouldn't the mastermind behind this be Black Zetsu? How do you feel, Sage of Six Paths is darker than Black Zetsu?
"Whatever, it doesn't matter to me anyway, and I'm too lazy to participate."
"It's just that most of the tailed beasts are in my hands, so it's impossible for me to take them out."
Without Ten Tails, the Fourth Ninja War would not be fought, Six Paths Madara would not appear, and Kaguya would not be resurrected.
Sage of Six Paths smiled and said, "Your words are enough."
Then he asked: "The original candidates were Naruto and Sasuke, but Naruto no longer needs my power and Sasuke is dead. Do you have any ideas about the two candidates?"
Mizuki: "Don't ask me, I have no idea."
The power of Sage of Six Paths is indeed not weak, but its own methods are not bad either.
My own disciples don't need this kind of power to improve themselves.
After returning, pass on all the Heavenly Resentment Yu and the Nine Gate Dunjia. Then all the disciples will be able to reach the Six Paths level, and there is no need for the power of the Sage of Six Paths.
Mizuki left, and Sage of Six Paths breathed a sigh of relief.
"My strength is still improving too slowly. I need more souls to provide me with strength, especially the souls of young ninjas."
"The Great Ninja War is my only choice."
"Hey, when I gave up my physical body and chose to exist in the form of a soul, control the pure land, and absorb the power of the soul to improve my strength, I thought it was a shortcut."
"I didn't expect that I would go astray from now on."
"The souls of countless dead people have become the source of my cultivation. My strength has indeed increased rapidly, but who would have thought that maintaining the stability of the Pure Land would consume so much."
"After the absorbed power was consumed to maintain the Pure Land, there was not much left. It has not broken through to the next level for thousands of years."
Sage of Six Paths couldn't help but sigh.
He looked at Mount Myōboku below, his face turned ugly, and said: "Old friend, this is all thanks to you, alas!"
That's right, the method of controlling the Pure Land and cultivating with the help of the souls of the dead was accidentally revealed to him by Gamamaru.
He believed it to be true, and after a simple attempt, he decisively passed the ninja sect on to An Xiulian, and then chose to die.
The result was that he was tricked by Toadmaru.
But it's useless to know. He is just a soul body, and his realm is not enough. He is still unable to influence the material world with the power of his soul. Even if he wants to settle accounts with Gamamaru, he can't do it.
I can only keep this account in mind!
Even on the surface, he pretended to be at peace with Gamamaru, for fear that Gamamaru would do something strange again and completely cut off his future.
"In addition, my mother has been sealed for so long. Without the nourishment of Chakra, her soul power has weakened to the extreme. With the help of this ninja war, let my mother come out and breathe."
"Although I sealed my mother, I would be uneasy if my mother really died in the seal."
"After mother is resurrected and her soul is nourished by the body and chakra, and regains sufficient vitality, then seal it."
"This way my mother won't die and I won't become an unfilial son."
Mizuki would be speechless if he heard this.
If you are really filial, you might as well just kill Kaguya.
He was dead for a hundred times, so he was clean, but he was sealed.
Nine Tails was sealed, and at least Naruto was still able to communicate.
Kaguya really has no one to communicate with.
It was like being locked in a dark room, without light or sound, lonely and cold, even worse than death.
Therefore, what Sage of Six Paths said about launching the Fourth Ninja War because he wanted to use his own power during his lifetime to cultivate two masters was nothing more than an excuse.
The real purpose is just for himself.
"Since Mizuki doesn't care, then things will be easier!"
"In terms of selection, if Naruto and Mizuki get too close, let's forget it first. Sasuke... Hey, why is Sasuke dead again?"
Sage of Six Paths's eyes widened, and he felt a lot of shame in his heart.
Good guy, didn't you just resurrect him?
It had only been a few days and he had only practiced a little bit. Why was he in the Pure Land again?
"It can't be reused, it can't be reused!" Sage of Six Paths wanted to give up.
Although he is his own son, this is too much mud to hold up the wall.
If you choose him, your plans will be affected. If everything comes to nothing in the end, you won't have anywhere to cry.
"What should we do? Naruto and Sasuke can't choose, so who should we choose to carry out the plan?"
Kaguya must be sealed, so Sage of Six Paths must have two spokesmen, inherit his power, and then work together to seal Kaguya.
As for asking Mizuki to help, Sage of Six Paths didn't dare.
He was afraid that Mizuki would be too harsh and beat his mother to death, and then he would really become an unfilial son.
"Who should I choose?"
"Forget it about ordinary people, not everyone can inherit my power."
He thought about it and finally thought of two people.
"Just Uzumaki Nagato and Uchiha Itachi. One is from the Uzumaki clan and the other is from the Uchiha clan. They are also descendants of my blood. It is better to give power to them than to outsiders."
"And their qualifications are no worse than Naruto and Sasuke, enough to inherit my power."
"Well, that's the decision!"
