Chapter 1026: The Ryoujin High Council vs. The Sage of Six Paths, Naruto and Sasuke!
Chapter 1026: The Ryoujin High Council vs. The Sage of Six Paths, Naruto and Sasuke!
The proof was in the pudding.
The Sage of Six Paths, the master manipulator, had an endless bag of tricks to deal with the 'Ninja World's Biggest Sweet Nene'—Hagoromo's mother, Kaguya.
It took less than an hour to find the perfect opportunity.
"Shin-Chibaku Tensei!"
With a clap of his hands, the seals of Yang and Yin Release glowed in his palms, and Kaguya, once again falling into the same trap, was caught off guard without a chance to use the Yomi Cross space-time technique.
A black ball, the size of an egg, flew towards her and vanished.
A thunderous roar filled the air as the ground began to tremble.
An incredibly powerful gravitational force, centered on Kaguya, emerged, pulling countless stones into the air, enveloping her within a floating mass.
If it were just these stones, even a Kage-level powerhouse, let alone a Six Paths-level being, would have ways to deal with it.
The issue was that the effect of Chibaku Tensei was to seal the target, turning them into a black hole, rendering them unable to fight back while also creating an impenetrable sealing shell with gravitational force.
Just like now, no matter how hard Kaguya struggled, her strength was of no use against this rule-like power, and she couldn't break free.
Especially with the space-related abilities of Tengoku no Chushin and Yomi Cross, they were useless against the black hole's gravity.
Chibaku Tensei was specifically developed to seal Kaguya, so it naturally countered spatial abilities.
Before being sealed, she could use these abilities, but once the 'anchor' of Chibaku Tensei landed on her, using spatial powers became impossible.
Powerful and domineering! This was the only way to describe the technique.
Moreover, the Sage of Six Paths was in control, precisely manipulating the area of gravitational effect.
He directly kept himself, Naruto, Sasuke, and the others out of harm's way, while a large area around them fell within the gravitational pull.
As a result, even approaching to attack became impossible.
Anyone who got too close would be sucked in, becoming part of the seal.
Under the terrifying gravity, dozens or even hundreds of tons of stones floated as if weightless, rushing towards the struggling Kaguya.
"Damn you, Hatake!"
"Why does this keep happening!"
"I just wanted to protect this nursery!"
...
Kaguya's voice echoed, growing fainter by the second.
Even the black Zetsu within her sleeves couldn't escape the seal.
There was no way the Sage of Six Paths would let Black Zetsu escape. If he did, all their efforts would be in vain, so he included him in the seal.
Seal!
This was the most suitable method; killing her would be an entirely different matter.
Don't be fooled by the Sage's ease in dealing with his mother; killing her wouldn't be as simple. He might even get killed in the process.
Not only was the Six Paths level incredibly difficult to kill, but the Otsutsuki clan also possessed numerous powerful abilities.
Especially the 'wedge' ability, known to the Sage, made killing Kaguya risky. What if she had planted a 'wedge' before her death? Sealing was the only option.
The sealing process went undisturbed, and Kaguya was smoothly enveloped by countless stones and gravel, forming a floating sphere hundreds of meters in diameter.
The sphere, hundreds of meters wide, hovered a hundred meters above the ground, a truly spectacular sight.
Of course, this time, they didn't create a moon, but the sealing power was even stronger.
Waiting for the blockade of the Pure Land to disappear, this sphere would fly to the moon on its own and embed itself in the moon's core.
It was only due to the blockade of the Pure Land that the sphere couldn't ascend.
It's essential to understand that this sphere was no ordinary object.
Although it appeared to be made of stones, the power of Chibaku Tensei had transformed it into an indestructible fortress.
Unlike the original storyline where Naruto broke free from the Nine-Tails' seal during the Six Paths of Pain's attack on Konoha, breaking free from this seal was nothing but a dream.
Shin-Chibaku Tensei was not just an additional word; it represented a leap in effectiveness.
With the ultimate Yang and Yin Release as its foundation, it was a divine sealing technique.
As the Sage of Six Paths released the seals, he barely had time to catch his breath when he sensed danger. The Sonneityama, floating by his side, intercepted the attack, shattering into pieces.
A faint tearing sound filled the air as several Sonneityama were pierced, and a beam of light grazed the Sage's cheek.
If it could pierce through the Sonneityama, it could only be a long-range technique.
Maikankoushahou! This strike was unleashed by Hyuga Aikotsuki, who had suppressed his presence to get close, and then attacked with all his might.
If it weren't for the Sonneityama blocking the attack and diverting its direction, they might have been able to severely injure the Sage of Six Paths.
While it wouldn't have been a killing blow, even the Sage of Six Paths would have been injured if not killed by a full-power Maikankoushahou.
However, only Hyuga Aikotsuki could have pulled off such a feat.
If it were anyone else, they would have been detected the moment they got within a few hundred meters, making a successful sneak attack impossible.
"Tch!"
As Hyuga Aikotsuki witnessed her full-power attack being deflected, she let out a light hum, and her nine fox tails trembled, charging forward like lightning.
Even with the excessive consumption, she could easily replenish her spirit energy and chakra from her Special Organ's reserve.
An invisible layer of chakra and spirit energy spun rapidly around her body, making it seem as if she was constantly using Watarigate.
Hatake!
There was no way Hyuga Aikotsuki wouldn't activate this defensive ninjutsu.
At the same time, her heart was filled with unparalleled excitement.
After all, her opponent was the Sage of Six Paths!
The opportunity to engage in combat with such a legendary entity was a once-in-a-lifetime chance for anyone.
"Shinoken!"
Before she even reached her target, she took advantage of her momentum and threw a punch.
Naruto shouted as he leaped out, ready to help block Hyuga Aikotsuki's attack.
A Ninjato unsheathed, and a silver moon appeared, shattering into silver moonlight that surged towards the charging Naruto.
Confronted by this attack, Naruto's hair stood on end, and he instinctively dodged while his golden Sage Fox outer garment extended nine chakra tails to shield himself.
Swish, swish!
Amidst the crisp cutting sounds, all nine chakra tails were sliced apart by the silver moonlight.
However, this allowed Naruto to narrowly escape.
Saimu!
The previous attack was Saimu, so the person who executed it was naturally the slender and tightly-clad Izumi, whose body was enveloped in a tight leather outfit.
In her Special Organ state, her Mangekyou Sharingan could further showcase its power.
With her speed multiplied several times, she was naturally the first to arrive.
Even though Naruto possessed the ultimate Yang Release and was at the Six Paths level, he had too many weaknesses. As long as he didn't fall for the mouth technique, dealing with him wouldn't be difficult.
Although Naruto could also use the Sonneityama, Izumi was confident she could defeat him, given her knowledge of its nature and the information she had gathered.
Whoosh!
Several Izumis appeared around Naruto, surrounding him.
This was Izumi's specialty.
Kyozuke no Jutsu! It was also a technique developed by Izumo, but in Izumi's hands, it became even more formidable.
Each phantom could transform into a real body and possessed offensive capabilities, making it a terrifying ninjutsu that combined speed and illusion.
"I've never lost when it comes to having more clones...Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!"
Naruto used this common ninjutsu.
While it was a forbidden technique for others, it was the most useful technique for him.
After all, Naruto could easily handle the chakra consumption and the pressure after dispelling the clones.
Bang!!
In the midst of the white mist, hundreds or even thousands of Narutos appeared on the battlefield, filling the area and surrounding Izumi's phantoms.
Whoosh!
Just then, Uzumaki Mei, with her red and blue wings fully extended, intercepted Sasuke from behind.
As for the other Reiyo Country members, they naturally stayed on the outskirts, ready to assist or provide support whenever needed.
Charging in all at once would not be helping but rather endangering their own.
Moving forward, the Reiyo Country's upper echelon would do their utmost to hold back the Sage of Six Paths, preventing him from escaping or interrupting Tang Ping's ascension.
For this, they were prepared to make any sacrifice, no matter how great.
