Chapter 782: The True Sage (4k, Part 2)
Chapter 782: The True Sage (4k, Part 2)
"Young man who leads the Tailed Beasts, it seems you know me?"
"I have some understanding, yes."
In a vast white space, two men clad in white robes sat facing each other, their legs crossed in a meditative pose.
"Although you claim to know me, to avoid any misunderstandings, let me introduce myself. My name is Hagoromo, and I am known as the Sage of the Six Paths in the Ninja World."
"My name is Mumu, and I am referred to as the Moonlit Immortal in the Ninja World."
"The Moonlit Immortal, it seems you have undertaken a task similar to mine." Hagoromo guessed.
"Indeed, there are some similarities. I established a new ninja sect and united the Ninja World through it, but the methods I used were different from yours," Mumu explained.
Mumu nodded in agreement.
"I'd love to hear the details, but I'm afraid we don't have the time for that," Hagoromo said, glancing downward.
Below them, a water mirror revealed a scene where Uchiha Madara, having absorbed the Ten-Tails, ascended to godhood and became the new Six Paths Madara.
"It's not a simple matter, and it's not something I can explain clearly in a short time," Mumu said, looking around.
Hagoromo could almost confirm that he had reached the legendary "Purgatory."
Of course, he wasn't dead, and it was likely that some aspect of his nature resembled that of Hagoromo, leading to this outcome.
However, Mumu remained calm. He could sense that the restraints here were not strong, and if he chose to, he could unleash his power and leave this place to return to the living world at any time.
The reason he hadn't left immediately was twofold. Firstly, the battlefield was still within controllable limits, and secondly, he wanted to learn something from Hagoromo].
After all, Hagoromo was a thousand-year-old sage, and opportunities to gain from him were rare.
"I have an unwelcome request," Hagoromo said. "I ask you to help this world by resealing my mother, who is about to be resurrected."
Hagoromo explained that he now existed only as a soul and chakra, limiting his ability to intervene in the living world.
Having the assistance of Mumu, a powerful ninja from a parallel world, would be ideal.
Mumu had gained the approval of the nine Tailed Beasts, which was a significant advantage in Hagoromo's eyes.
To Hagoromo, Mumu might be the savior of another world, and his character was trustworthy.
"Great Sage Kaguya, I can help, but you must tell me how you sealed her and the method you used to divide the Ten-Tails," Mumu replied.
"It seems you know more than I imagined, and sharing this information with you is fine. However, I can't guarantee you'll be able to replicate my methods," Hagoromo said after some thought.
Hagoromo could see that Mumu had exceptional abilities, but he still fell short compared to Hagoromo's own skills during his lifetime.
"Please, go ahead," Mumu said.
Most of Mumu's abilities came from the system's rewards, but his sealing techniques were genuinely extraordinary.
Even Tsunade, who had received excellent sealing technique training from a young age, couldn't match Mumu's skills.
Combining the system's rewards with his sealing technique knowledge, Mumu's sealing prowess surpassed that of the Uzumaki clan's historical sealing masters.
Hagoromo proceeded to explain, and Mumu occasionally asked questions.
Hagoromo no longer doubted Mumu's ability to replicate his methods, given the skills he had demonstrated. Even if he couldn't do it now, he would be able to in due time.
As time passed, when Hagoromo paused, the water mirror showed Uchiha Madara's defeat and his absorption of the God Tree.
"The timing is perfect. I must leave now. It's not good for the living to stay here too long. Here is my Yin-Yang power; please give it to Naruto and Sasuke. They are the reincarnations of my children and will help seal Kaguya," Hagoromo said, extending his palm, one hand bearing a black moon and the other a white sun.
"I will, but before I leave, I need to retrieve something nearby," Mumu said.
Mumu realized that this so-called "Purgatory" might be a spiritual space on a Ninja World level.
After all, Mumu, having entered a spiritual space before, noticed some similar qualities between the two.
However, Mumu's temporary naming of this unknown space as a spiritual space was due to its partial similarities. It didn't necessarily mean it was consistent with the spiritual spaces of living ninjas or Tailed Beasts.
This space, allowing Mumu's physical existence, was far from an ordinary spiritual space.
Whether this "spiritual space" was originally present or created by someone remained unknown.
Mumu discovered that this "spiritual space" had distinct layers, each with unique characteristics.
The place Mu Mumu is heading to in the mortal realm is known as the Yellow Spring, a shallow area of this spiritual space.
"You're not familiar with this place yet, so recklessly using powerful abilities might have some negative consequences. Let me help you with that."
The Sage of Six Paths extended his hand, and a blood-red eye appeared in his palm."
Even before meeting Mu Mumu, he had been carefully observing each ninja from parallel worlds.
So, he guessed that Mu Mumu wanted to help Shizui obtain the sealed eye of 'Shizui,' and unlock the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan for him.
As for how Mu Mumu knew about Shizui's eye, it was a simple matter.
Shizui and 'Shizui's' chakra were in sync.
Mu Mumu, being close to his existence, had reached 'Purgatory,' and sensing his disciple's eye was only natural.
"Thanks, goodbye."
Mu Mumu took the Mangekyou Sharingan and Yin-Yang power, thanked the Sage of Six Paths, and stood up to leave.
"This is something I want to say to you too. Thanks, goodbye."
The Sage of Six Paths stood up to see Mu Mumu off.
It was quite remarkable; although they hadn't interacted much, the Sage of Six Paths held Mu Mumu in high regard.
Compared to his two sons, Mu Mumu was more like his heir.
Unfortunately, his chakra was limited. Aside from the Yin-Yang power needed to seal Kaguya, he had no extra chakra to give Mu Mumu.
"With his current power, he doesn't need my chakra anymore."
The Sage of Six Paths sat down, looking at the Water Mirror, where Uchiha Sasuke was laughing maniacally after obtaining his new life, intending to steal the last half of the Nine-Tails to unleash Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Whoosh!
Mu Mumu casually summoned a lightning blade imbued with the power of the Sage of Six Paths, and with a swift slash, he severed the arm Sasuke had extended, then swiftly rushed towards him.
"Six Paths power? Where did this guy come from?"
Seeing the golden light on Mu Mumu's body, Sasuke's eyebrows furrowed.
"Divine Technique: Lightning Fang!"
Sasuke gathered chakra in his throat and spat out a laser beam.
"Shoujinbikan!"
Mu Mumu didn't dodge or evade, instead opening his black eye and calmly glanced at the laser beam.
As Sasuke was caught off guard, the laser beam mysteriously vanished.
Due to Mu Mumu's bizarre display, Sasuke quickly retreated, wanting to create some distance.
"Yellow Spring Evil Slope!"
Mu Mumu gathered his chakra and opened a black portal in front of him, extending his hand towards it.
This was his spatiotemporal ninjutsu, a skill he had mastered after Blood Prison.
At specific times, it had some effect, and then it was suitable for bullying.
Whoosh!
Sasuke looked at his chest in disbelief, as Mu Mumu's hand somehow stretched out from behind him and landed on his chest!
Sasuke's scalp tingled, wondering if the Sage of Six Paths had faked his death. Where did this monster come from?
"It should be the One-Tail and Eight-Tails."
Mu Mumu used his perception to locate the One-Tail and Eight-Tails among the nine tailed beasts, extracting a portion of their tailed beast chakra.
Although he could extract more, Mu Mumu was concerned that extracting too much power might prevent Sasuke from using Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Mu Mumu had questions for Kaguya, queries that only she could answer in the ninja world.
Without paying attention to Sasuke, Mu Mumu swiftly appeared next to Naruto and placed his right hand on Naruto's body, transferring the tailed beast chakra and Yang power into Naruto.
Although being ignored made Sasuke a bit annoyed, he took the opportunity to swiftly ascend into the sky, creating distance from Mu Mumu.
In the original version, it was a 16191 book bar, and there was no mistake!
Mu Mumu's abilities were too bizarre. He had just stunned Sasuke with a few moves, and before he could understand the situation, he was already knocked out.
"You big jerk, are you scared now? This is the all-powerful Mu Mumu Sage!"
Dai Tu proudly declared.
He guessed that the Sage of Six Paths was a fraud, otherwise, how could Uchiha Sasuke, who claimed to be equal to the Sage of Six Paths, be knocked down by Mu Mumu's few moves?
"And he's still so arrogant even without chakra."
Mu Mumu tapped out a burst of energy, striking Dai Tu's brain, and infused a bit of his chakra into Dai Tu and Kakashi.
"Hehe."
Dai Tu scratched his head and laughed, remembering how he had been bullied by Uchiha Sasuke before, but now Mu Mumu was giving it back to him.
(End of Chapter)
To obtain the Rinnegan, one can only be an Indra's chakra reincarnation who receives Ashura's chakra or cells. Indra's Uchiha clan can never evolve the Sharingan into the Rinnegan.
Even if Indra's chakra reincarnation acquires Ashura's chakra, awakening the Rinnegan is still a challenging and lengthy process.
However, the Yin power can shorten this process.
Naruto is also an Ashura's chakra reincarnation, so Sasuke, who has fused with Naruto, doesn't need to transplant Hashirama's cells. He only requires the Yin power to awaken the Rinnegan, just like in the original story.
"What did you do?"
Sasuke felt a surge of immense power entering his body, and immediately, his left eye produced a peculiar sensation.
Without offering much explanation, Mumu approached Itachi and took out the Mangekyo Sharingan.
"Is this 'my' other eye?"
Itachi looked at Mumu with surprise.
According to Uchiha Itachi's intelligence, his other eye should be with Danzo Shimura. Could Mumu have traveled to Konoha?
"Yes, don't move. I'll take care of it."
Mumu quickly replaced Itachi's eye with the new one.
Protected by Mumu's chakra, Itachi didn't feel any discomfort.
Finally, Mumu approached the Six Paths Obito.
The most revered ninja stood before Mumu, but Obito closed his remaining Mangekyo Sharingan, unable to face Mumu directly.
It seemed as if the golden-red light emanating from Mumu's body would melt Obito entirely.
Mumu extended his hand towards Obito and used the Yin-Yang Style to create an eye within Obito's empty socket, simultaneously healing Obito's near-death body.
As for Kurotsuchi, he escaped from Obito's body and burrowed underground the moment Mumu appeared.
Since Mumu needed Kaguya to appear and Kurotsuchi to play his role, he temporarily refrained from killing Kurotsuchi.
"Mumu-san..."
With his new eye, Obito looked at Mumu with deep emotion and unconsciously wanted to call Mumu his teacher, but he stopped himself in time.
Having done such a thing, how could he have the qualifications to become Mumu's disciple?
"If our world also had a 'Mumu-sensei,' it would probably be much better than it is now."
Kakashi watched as Mumu helped Obito with his eye, and he sighed, his expression complex.
Although he hadn't seen the memories like Obito had, he had heard a lot about Mumu from Naruto and parallel world ninjas like Maito Gai and Obito.
A good teacher truly makes a difference.
"So, he is the Mumu-sensei Obito spoke of. Indeed, he is extraordinary. With such power, he has surpassed Sasuke."
Senju Tobirama observed Mumu, witnessing the completion of various incomprehensible tasks with a mere gesture, as if seeing the true Sage of the Six Paths.
"Impressive. Although there's the factor of intelligence, Sasuke had almost no chance against him just now."
Senju Hashirama nodded in agreement.
"Could he be another twin brother of mine?"
Namikaze Minato's expression turned thoughtful.
"It's possible."
Sarutobi Hiruzen scrutinized Mumu as he spoke.
"Big Brother Mumu!"
Naruto, nourished by the Tailed Beast Chakra and Yang Power, quickly revived to full health. Excited, he rushed to Mumu's side.
"Big Brother Mumu, did you save me? I feel a special power within me."
Naruto asked.
"It's thanks to everyone's efforts. That power was given to you by the Sage of the Six Paths. We'll need it in the upcoming battles."
Mumu offered a brief explanation, then looked up at the sky.
Perhaps feeling that Mumu's methods were too bizarre, Uchiha Sasuke abandoned the half-sealed Nine-Tails and the stolen Tailed Beast Chakra, flying directly to the moon's side to attempt the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
"Flying so high, what is Sasuke's plan? Is it the genjutsu called Infinite Tsukuyomi?"
Senju Tobirama, closely monitoring Uchiha Sasuke, was the second person, after Mumu, to notice the anomaly.
"That's right. So, those who don't want to sleep, please don't run around. I'll set up a barrier. Ninjas within the barrier and those resurrected through Impure World Reincarnation won't be affected by Infinite Tsukuyomi."
Mumu explained.
Whoosh! Mumu flung seven Sage Stones, transformed into black rods, towards his surroundings.
"Heavenly Spherical Barrier!"
As Mumu activated his chakra, golden-red chakra surged onto the black rods, forming a golden-red energy shield that enveloped Mumu and those within his barrier.
The next moment, the Blood Moon in the sky emitted a dazzling white light. Everyone in the Shinobi world, except those within Mumu's barrier, fell into a deep sleep, including all animals.
With that, both conditions for Kaguya Otsutsuki's resurrection were fulfilled.
