Becoming a Ninja from Naruto

Chapter 213 A Way to Meet the Sage of Six Paths
Emiya Shihara was not wrong.

Because the Sage of Six Paths could indeed descend at any time.

After Minato Namikaze took Naruto Uzumaki away, he implanted the Nine-Tails from his own body into Naruto's, frowning as he waited for his child to awaken.

but…

There has been no news for a long time.

When Sasuke Uchiha arrived, he saw Naruto Uzumaki on the verge of death and simply stood beside Minato Namikaze, asking about the outcome.

"Can't you?"

Sasuke Uchiha's expression grew increasingly grim.

"..."

Minato Namikaze slowly lowered his head.

In this world, there is nothing more painful for a father than being unable to save his son, or even watching helplessly as his son dies before his eyes.

but…

Minato Namikaze was truly powerless.

"actually…"

Tobirama Senju appeared beside them, his voice incredibly melodious at that moment: "There is another way to save this child..."

"any solution!"

Minato Namikaze and Sasuke Uchiha turned around at the same time.

"Then we'll cross the line between life and death and beg the Sage of Six Paths for help..."

Tobirama Senju's eyes were fixed on the still unconscious Naruto Uzumaki before him. He spoke softly of the knowledge he had received from Shigenori Emiya: "Whether it's to save this child or to save the world, we can only place our hopes on that legendary god..."

same.

This is also why Tobirama Senju withdrew from the battlefield.

Because Tobirama Senju was more rational than anyone else, he had already realized that the Allied Shinobi Forces could not possibly be a match for Madara Uchiha, especially with the even more powerful Emiya Shigenori behind them…

Emiya Shihara, who was like a god...

Only the legendary Sage of Six Paths can resolve this crisis in the ninja world.

"then…"

"To heal his elder brother's injuries, Emiya Shigenori once devised a method that would cause a person's soul to teeter between life and death..."

"If a soul can appear in that boundary between the mortal world and the underworld, it will be able to meet the legendary god, the Sage of Six Paths..."

"..."

Tobirama Senju recounted the story from back then, revealing the truth that the Sage of Six Paths still existed in the world, and also explaining that his brother had indeed seen the Sage of Six Paths in the past.

"The Sage of Six Paths?"

Uchiha Sasuke frowned.

"We need someone who is fearless in the face of death..."

Tobirama Senju mentioned the conditions required for a soul to linger on the edge of life and death: "At the same time, one must also possess an immense attachment at the moment of death..."

This behavior…

It's tantamount to encouraging someone to commit suicide.

Even the hope seems incredibly slim.

After all, according to Tobirama Senju, the legend of being able to see the Sage of Six Paths was as unfounded and vague as praying to gods and Buddhas whenever one encountered a problem…

This kind of thing...

Often it's just a way to comfort oneself.

However, at this moment, Tobirama Senju seemed to be recounting what people had previously considered a form of spiritual comfort as a top-secret truth buried for many years.

"Then I will go and ask the Sage of Six Paths for help..."

Minato Namikaze closed his fingers.

"Fourth Hokage, you've been dead for a long time..."

Tobirama Senju shook his head, seemingly somewhat helpless: "Based on my deduction, before our Impure World Reincarnation was unleashed last time, your soul had already returned to the Underworld, and you may not have another chance to travel to that boundary land..."

"because…"

“I’ve tried it too.” Tobirama Senju recounted the experiment he conducted during his last Impure World Reincarnation: “But my soul didn’t linger on the edge of life and death; instead, it returned directly to the Underworld…”

At this point, Tobirama Senju's gaze fell on Sasuke Uchiha, the only living person among them.

Only the living…

Perhaps only then will there be hope of seeing the Sage of Six Paths.

"..."

Sasuke Uchiha's lips twitched slightly.

Although for him now, there was little difference between living and dying, being persuaded to commit suicide was still quite unexpected...

Really are…

It was really unexpected.

However, if one could actually meet the Sage of Six Paths and save Naruto's life, it seems quite reasonable to risk the possibility of actually dying...

after all…

During the time of Class 7...

Sasuke Uchiha recalled how, during his mission with Team 7, he was truly willing to give his life to protect Naruto Uzumaki…

This guy…

They would also be willing to risk their lives to protect him.

At that time, he could do this even before he had taken revenge.

What now?
Now that I seem to have avenged myself and learned the truth about my brother killing my parents and clan, it seems like there's no point in living anymore.
"I'll go."

A spark of electricity crackled between Sasuke's fingertips. He glanced down at Naruto, then back at Tobirama: "I hope what you're saying is true..."

"Sasuke!"

Minato Namikaze quickly tried to stop the child!

Minato Namikaze would never hesitate to sacrifice everything to save his son, but he cannot allow his son's friends to sacrifice themselves for the same reason!

"never mind."

Sasuke Uchiha chuckled softly, as if he had seen through something: "If this guy were in this situation, he would definitely do the same thing, given his personality."

Yes, it definitely will.

Sasuke Uchiha knew Naruto Uzumaki, his friend, very well.

Although this sounds absurd, Naruto Uzumaki never cares about his life and always works incredibly hard.

"Don't have that kind of mindset..."

Tobirama Senju's voice turned serious as he earnestly reminded Sasuke Uchiha, "You seem to be facing death with no regrets. This means your soul will enter the underworld after death, unable to linger on the edge of life and death..."

"Before death..."

"One must possess an immense level of conviction."

"Only this kind of obsession can prevent your soul from entering the underworld."

"..."

Sasuke Uchiha's eyes twitched.

no…

This means...

You want him to die in a state of unease, right?
Is what the Second Hokage said really true?

Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but think of the reputation of this Second Hokage.

After all, all the crises facing the ninja world right now were caused by the Second Hokage. If he hadn't created the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and if he hadn't resurrected Emiya Shigenori using Impure World Reincarnation, none of this mess would have happened...

"An obsession...?"

Uchiha Sasuke closed his eyes and recalled the memories in his brain for a while. Suddenly, he exerted force with his palm, and his palm, crackling with electricity, pierced through his own heart in an instant!
"..."

Minato Namikaze quickly supported his body and carefully placed his friend, who was willing to die for his son, on the ground.

just now…

All they can do is wait for the outcome here.
