Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 392 Illusion and Reality

Because in the Sage of Six Paths' account, there is no mention of Tachibana Kanagawa, an outsider.

Meanwhile, with Hashirama Senju gone, Madara Uchiha, who was already invincible in the ninja world, easily collected all nine tailed beasts.

No one even knows the real reason he collected the tailed beasts.

Therefore, even during the collection process, he did not encounter particularly fierce resistance.

Then, after Madara Uchiha successfully gathered all nine tailed beasts.

Without the slightest hesitation, he summoned the heretical demon statue.

Then they fused with the nine tailed beasts.

He absorbed the Ten-Tails and became its jinchūriki.

Ultimately, the Infinite Tsukuyomi was activated.

And after the Infinite Tsukuyomi was successfully activated.

Black Zetsu originally intended to launch a sneak attack on Madara Uchiha, using Madara's body to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki and achieve his true goal of saving his mother.

Madara Uchiha, who achieved his goal without experiencing any battle, still retained his full strength and his mind was not overly constrained.

Although he was still distracted by the fulfillment of his long-cherished wish and was successfully ambushed by Black Zetsu, he still had the power to fight back.

Just before Kaguya Otsutsuki was about to be resurrected using his body.

Having achieved his long-cherished wish and having no desires left, Madara Uchiha chose to seal himself and Black Zetsu together.

In the end, Madara and Black Zetsu perished together.

after that.

The Infinite Tsukuyomi, which has already been completed, sustains the lives of everyone in this world by constantly drawing nutrients from the earth through the Divine Tree.

Even if these people might gradually be transformed into White Zetsu.

However, since there is no actual controller, the mind or soul will not be enslaved or turned into a weapon of war.

The chakra generated by these people, in turn, sustains the existence of Infinite Tsukuyomi.

That's it.

All of humanity in this world.

Just as Madara Uchiha had hoped.

They were all caught up in it.

In the eternal illusion of 'beauty'!

And this 'eternity'.

This will continue until all the world's energy is exhausted, and it will eventually go to nothingness along with the world.

Or.

The day when an external force appears and breaks the Infinite Tsukuyomi!

That's where the story ends.

The Sage of Six Paths also stopped his narration.

And Jianchuan Ju fell into a long silence.

After a long pause, Jianchuan Ju finally spoke again, his voice dry.

"So, I am the external force that broke the Infinite Tsukuyomi?"

Although it sounded like she was asking a question, Tachibana Kanagawa's tone was very certain.

In response to Tachibana's question, the Sage of Six Paths simply nodded silently, indicating his confirmation.

It was only at this moment that Tachibana Kanakawa remembered again.

The achievement I unlocked when I traversed the dragon vein.

[Venturing into the Lostbelt!]

"An eternal illusion, ah, what an enviable, yet despairing world."

A bitter smile appeared on Jianchuan Ju's face, then she looked at the Sage of Six Paths with a last glimmer of hope in her eyes.

"Since the entire ninja world is under the Infinite Tsukuyomi, how can you claim that everything I experienced was not a lie?"

Seeing the slightly expectant look in Tachibana Kanagawa's eyes, the Sage of Six Paths did not choose to avoid the question this time, but directly explained the reason.

"After the world fell into an eternal illusion, I have been searching for a way to save it."

"Until one day, by chance, I noticed the Uchiha clan's secret technique, Izanagi."

"This secret technique has the ability to transform factors that are unfavorable to oneself into illusions. Conversely, it can also transform illusions that are favorable to oneself into reality."

"After that, I spent some time successfully modifying this secret technique."

Turn reality into illusion!

Use illusion to cover reality!

At this moment, Tachibana Kanagawa was utterly shocked by the Sage of Six Paths' insane idea.

The other party actually wanted to use the illusion within the "Eternal Tsukuyomi" in which Madara Uchiha was defeated and Black Zetsu was sealed to cover up the reality that actually happened in this timeline!

However, even though "Izanagi" is known as the ultimate eye technique of the Sharingan, it can only rewrite the reality of the user, and its duration is only one minute.

so.

"Is this really possible?"

At this moment, only she and the Sage of Six Paths remained in this world. Tachibana Kenkawa did not hide her shock and asked directly.

Faced with Tachibana's question, the Sage of Six Paths revealed an unprecedentedly resolute expression.

"It's possible!"

After saying this, the Sage of Six Paths clasped his hands together and his figure suddenly rose into the sky.

At this moment, the Sage of Six Paths was surrounded by dazzling light, and endless chakra surged forth.

"Secret Technique * Divine Nest Day"

As that magnificent and resounding sound faded away.

The world that was originally "real" in Tachibana Kenkawa's eyes suddenly became illusory.

The light and shadow flickered and alternated continuously.

It seemed that Tachibana Kanakawa saw again the scene from her memory when she first arrived in this time and space.

In the sky, the crimson moonlight reflected the Rinnegan with its nine tomoe.

On the barren land, a colossal divine tree reaching to the sky stands in the center of the world.

At its very bottom, above the roots of the divine tree, are countless figures wrapped up like mummies.

The surrounding environment exudes a desolate and tragic beauty.

Tachibana Kanakawa discovered this in horror.

In this real world, all the houses are rotten and collapsed.

Even stone artifacts reveal the vicissitudes left by the erosion of time.

How much time has passed in this world of Infinite Tsukuyomi?

It was only at this moment that Tachibana Kenkawa realized that the Sage of Six Paths had said that "some time was spent modifying the secret technique."

It was probably a long and lonely period, far longer than he had imagined.

As the phantom images of the two worlds flickered alternately, the frequency increased.

Tachibana Kanagawa also noticed that in the real world, the bright moon in the sky, which was engraved with the Rinnegan of the Nine-Tomoe, gradually changed into the shape of the Sage of Six Paths' two Rinnegan.

He actually grafted his own eye technique onto the "Infinite Tsukuyomi".

The ultimate illusion, which achieves the overlay of reality, is about to be completed.

Tachibana Kanagawa also asked the Sage of Six Paths in the sky his last question.

"Why me? And how can you be so sure I can defeat Uchiha Madara?!"

Since the Sage of Six Paths grafted his eye technique onto the "Infinite Tsukuyomi," he could also use illusion to cover reality.

Why not choose one from the illusions of people who already exist in this world and twist it directly into reality?

Instead, they have to gamble on themselves, as outsiders.

The Sage of Six Paths, who was in mid-air, looked down at Tachibana Kenkawa after hearing his shout.

"I have no other choice."

After a moment of silence, the Sage of Six Paths continued speaking calmly.

"You possess a truth within you that even the Infinite Tsukuyomi cannot shake!"

After saying this, the Sage of Six Paths did not speak again.

However, Tachibana Kanagawa could see that the other party's originally pale purple Rinnegan was slowly fading and going blind.

Even the red mark symbolizing the Ninja Clan between his eyebrows gradually disappeared.

The constantly flashing world finally froze at this moment.

This is the scene where Tachibana Kanagawa's final battle with Madara Uchiha ends.

I felt the warm, vibrant breeze caressing my cheeks once more.

The Sage of Six Paths, who had existed alone in this world for an unknown period of time, now had two clear tears streaming down his face from his blind eyes.

Then the Sage of Six Paths bowed slightly towards a higher point in the sky, in a direction where there was nothing.

As if relieved, she spoke softly.

"Thanks."

Below, Kenkawa Tachibana also senses the resurgence of time's flow.

He stared at the figure slowly disappearing in the sky, speechless for a long time.

Until the girl's energetic and cheerful voice reached my ears.

"Hey~ what are you looking at, Tachibana?"
