Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

However, Yu Ming also signed a contract with Shigulin.

However, he never summoned the live slug during the battle. Slug is the species name of the slugs in Wet Bone Forest, while live slug is its name.

Yu Ming looked at the Nine-Tailed Fox and smiled, "It's indeed quite easy to guess. I learned Sage Arts in Ryuchi Cave. Actually, I've also studied the Sage Arts of Shikkotsu Forest, but they're similar to those of Ryuchi Cave, just with some subtle differences in emphasis. The Sage Arts of Shikkotsu Forest are more focused on recovery."

"Moreover, it can enhance physical fitness, making it more suitable for those skilled in physical combat."

I have never been to Mount Myōboku.

Hearing Yu Ming say these words, Nine-Tailed Fox laughed and said, "You actually learned the Sage Techniques of Ryuchi Cave. The Sage Techniques of Ryuchi Cave have a strong suppressive effect on Tailed Beasts because Ryuchi Cave is more inclined towards illusion techniques."

"Moreover, the level of illusion is very high."

Yu Ming nodded. "Indeed, I've used it once. That kind of illusion is much stronger than the Mangekyou Sharingan's illusion. Last time I fought against a powerful member of the Oni clan, the snake beside me could easily create illusions for a peak Kage-level expert, or even one who was about to surpass Kage-level."

"It is indeed quite terrifying. This is without my intervention. If I had intervened, I estimate that even a ninja beyond the Kage level would have hallucinated and would have a hard time getting rid of it."

Nine-Tails looked at Yu Ming with some helplessness, "With your strength, you probably could even induce hallucinations in ninjas above the Kage level without using Sage Mode."

Although Kurama didn't know exactly how strong Yu Ming was, just Yu Ming's perfect-level Sage Mode and ability to unleash True Several Thousand Hands already put him at the level of Hashirama Senju, not to mention that his chakra reserves were several times greater than Hashirama Senju's.

His strength is definitely much greater than that of Hashirama Senju. What's most terrifying is his lightning release technique, which is not ordinary lightning release at all.

Looking back now, Kurama realizes that Yu Ming's Lightning Release definitely belongs to the Kekkei Genkai, because his Lightning Release contains Yang-attribute chakra.

Otherwise, Yu Ming's lightning escapades would never be as controllable as if they were alive.

There might even be Yin-style escape techniques.

If there were Yin Release, then it wouldn't be a Bloodline Limit, but rather a Bloodline Elimination.

Thinking about this, Nine-Tails realized that Yu Ming's strength might already be quite close to that of the Sage of Six Paths.

Because in terms of chakra reserves, Yu Ming's chakra reserves are already quite close to those of the Ten-Tails...

What an incredible amount of chakra! If Yu Ming were to cultivate Yin-Yang Release to its ultimate level, he would reach the Six Paths level.

Nine-Tails stared at Yu Ming in disbelief. "Your current strength is probably quite close to that of the Sage of Six Paths. If you also had the Rinnegan, you would surely have reached the level of the Sage of Six Paths."

Yu Ming laughed and said, "You think too highly of me."

Kurama wasn't overestimating Yu Ming; it was simply the truth. Yu Ming only lacked the Rinnegan. If he had the Rinnegan, his current strength, even if not reaching Kaguya Otsutsuki's level, should at least be at the level of the Sage of Six Paths.

In terms of pure strength, the Sage of Six Paths was not as strong as Kaguya Otsutsuki; it was just that he and Hamura Otsutsuki used Yin Release and Yang Release to seal her away.

Kaguya Otsutsuki's weakness lies in her lack of practical combat experience.

However, it's understandable. With pure power, she's practically invincible and doesn't really need any combat experience.

What Kurama didn't know was that Yu Ming also had the Rinnegan, and his eye power was quite formidable.

It is at least much more powerful than Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan.

However, he had not yet mastered Yin and Yang techniques to their fullest extent, so he had not yet reached the Six Paths level.

However, Yu Ming felt that he was not far from fully mastering Yin Release and Yang Release, because recently he felt that his mastery of Yang Release was close to its limit, while his mastery of Yin Release was still 5.5 away, but not by much.

Nine-Tails looked at Yu Ming and said, "I didn't think too highly of you. Right now, you have more chakra than Hashirama Senju, and even more than several times my original chakra. You also have a strong physique, and you've mastered Wood Release and Sage Mode. You're indeed quite close to the Sage of Six Paths. The Sage of Six Paths' two sons, Indra and Ashura, are no match for you at all."

In fact, Asuras also possess the power of the Six Paths, but that doesn't mean they have reached the level of the Sage of Six Paths. The Sage of Six Paths is the true level of the Six Paths.

Become the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki, or merge with the Ten-Tails.

Yu Ming has not yet fully mastered Yin-Yang Escape, so he has not reached the Six Paths level.

However, if he really wanted to use it, he could enter Six Paths Mode and even use the Truth-Seeking Ball.

Its power is definitely much stronger than Asura's.

Chapter 258 You should cultivate to the level of the Sage of Six Paths first.

However, he has not yet reached the level of the Sage of Six Paths or Kaguya Otsutsuki, who became the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki.

Therefore, Yu Ming has never used it, and of course, no one in the ninja world has allowed him to enter Six Paths Mode.

Let alone getting him into Six Paths Mode, there aren't many ninjas who can even get him into Sage Mode.

When using the Myojinmon, Yu Ming would not have entered Sage Mode if it weren't for the need for Sage Chakra.

Yu Ming looked at the Nine-Tailed Laughing Novel Group 817 and said, "Asura and Indra, are these the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths?"

Nine-Tails said, "Yes, the Sage of Six Paths' two sons, Indra, inherited the Sage of Six Paths' Sage Eyes, and Ashura inherited the Sage of Six Paths' Sage Body. Both of them have power surpassing Kage level, and even possess the power of the Six Paths."

Hearing this, Yu Ming was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Indra inherited the Rinnegan?"

Yu Ming remembered that Indra seemed to have no Rinnegan at all, only the Sharingan.

Nine-Tails glanced at Yu Ming and explained, "No, Indra only awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan until his death."

Yu Ming laughed and said, "Then how can you say that he inherited the Eye of the Immortal?"

Nine-Tails said helplessly, "Could you please stop interrupting me?"

Nine-Tailed Fox really had no way to deal with Yu Ming; it couldn't beat him in a fight, so it could only try to reason with him.

Yu Ming waved his hand and said, "You go ahead."

Kurama continued, "That's because his Sharingan power is already the same as the Sage of Six Paths' Rinnegan power."

Yu Ming was stunned. "Impressive. His Sharingan is already as powerful as the Rinnegan? And it's the Rinnegan of the Sage of Six Paths."

Kurama nodded and said, "Yes, take Susanoo for example. Indra can already activate the complete Susanoo with only three tomoe, and it is a true complete Susanoo, not like Madara Uchiha's. It is much stronger than his Susanoo."

Yu Ming didn't remember this information and was completely stunned. "Is it possible to activate the true Mangekyou Susanoo with three tomoe?"

Nine-Tailed Fox looked at Yu Ming and asked, "Are you still going to listen to me?"

Nine-Tailed Fox needs to clarify its position regarding Yu Ming's doubts.

Seeing that Yu Ming had stopped talking, Nine-Tails continued, "Indra was a genius from a young age. He even invented the concept of ninjutsu. Ashura was not as good as him from a young age, but after growing up, Ashura developed the power of the Sage Body and could use my chakra."

Yu Ming was stunned for a moment. "Wait, Ashura used your chakra? You were sealed inside him before?"

Kurama shook its head. "No, you should be able to see that my power is unmatched by other tailed beasts, and even the amount of chakra is vastly different."

"It's because I possess most of the power of the Ten-Tails, and Ashura can use the power of the Six Paths, so naturally, he can also use my power."

Yu Ming did have an impression that Asura did use a mode similar to Nine-Lama.

Yu Ming nodded. "I see. So Ashura's strength is actually similar to that of the Sage of Six Paths. He has a Sage Body, controls the power of the Six Paths, and can use your power. However, he doesn't have the Rinnegan, which is a bit lacking."

Nine-Tails said, "What Ashura possesses is actually the ultimate Yang Release, but you are right, his strength is still far from that of the Sage of Six Paths."

"However, the Sage of Six Paths giving him the ultimate Yang Release technique was already enough to make him very powerful, even more powerful than the First Hokage. I even think that the First Hokage was his reincarnation."

Yu Ming thought to himself, "You really guessed right, Hashirama Senju is indeed the reincarnation of Ashura's chakra."

Kurama continued, "But even if they weren't, Ashura was the ancestor of the Senju clan, and Indra was the ancestor of the Uchiha clan. These two clans fought for a thousand years because of their two ancestors."

"However, although these two people are also very powerful, they are far from reaching the Six Paths level, while you are already quite close to the Six Paths level, except that you do not have the Rinnegan."

"But your chakra reserves are even greater than Ashura's, your Sage Mode is far more powerful, your physique is comparable to a Sage Body, and I even think it's stronger. You've also mastered the ultimate Wood Release. If you had a pair of Rinnegan, you could reach the level of the Sage of Six Paths."

"pity".

"And your ultimate lightning release is far stronger than Indra's lightning release."

Kurama revealed a lot of information, all of which was highly confidential in the ninja world.

Of course, Yu Ming was aware of most of this information.

Yu Ming knew most of the things about Asura and Indra.

He wasn't very clear about the fact that one could activate the complete Susanoo with only three tomoe.

The fact that three tomoe can activate the complete Susanoo is truly terrifying.

However, Yu Ming remembered that Hashirama Senju's True Several Thousand Hands was indeed stronger than Ashura's True Several Thousand Hands.

Furthermore, it seems that Ashura's chakra was not as much as Hashirama Senju's, because when Ashura used the True Several Thousand Hands, he borrowed the chakra of many ninjas to use it.

Hashirama Senju, however, used it simply by entering Sage Mode.

However, Ashura possesses the Six Paths power that Hashirama Senju lacked, making him stronger than Hashirama in this respect.

Yu Ming smiled and said, "I didn't expect the secrets of the ninja world to be so interesting. The ancestors of the Uchiha and Senju clans were actually two brothers."

"Above the Sage of Six Paths, there is actually Kaguya Otsutsuki. Wait, if that's the case, isn't the so-called ninja world created by the Otsutsuki clan?" 113.

"Isn't the so-called destruction of the world and saving the world all done by the Otsutsuki clan?"

Nine-Tails paused for a moment, then said somewhat speechlessly, "Indeed, it seems so."

"If you put it that way, it seems that many powerful clans in the ninja world with bloodline limits have the bloodline of the Sage of Six Paths."

Then Nine-Tailed Fox looked at Yu Ming.

Yu Ming laughed and said, "Don't even think about it. I don't have the bloodline of the Sage of Six Paths. I have no connection with the Uchiha clan, the Senju clan, or even the Uzumaki clan since my ancestors."

Nine-Tails sensed it for a moment, then said, "I really don't feel anything. So you're an anomaly. You're not a descendant of the Sage of Six Paths, yet you possess such powerful strength."

Yu Ming smiled and said, "Indeed, but if the Akatsuki's goal is really to summon the Ten-Tails, then the ninja world will indeed be in some trouble."

"You were separated from the Ten-Tails. How strong do you think the Ten-Tails is? How does it compare to me?"

Nine-Tails rolled its eyes at Yu Ming. "You should reach the level of the Sage of Six Paths before asking. The Ten-Tails is a monster that can destroy the world. Even the Sage of Six Paths couldn't kill it. Do you think you're a match for it?"

Yu Ming wasn't angry, and laughed, "That's true, but if the Akatsuki really releases the Ten-Tails, who can deal with it?"

Chapter 259 Conditions for Awakening the Rinnegan

Kurama nodded in agreement. "Yeah, if it really happens... wait, do you mean you want Akatsuki to release the Ten-Tails?"

Seeing the Nine-Tails glaring at him, Yu Ming smiled and said, "No, it's just in case. If the Ten-Tails were really released, I'm afraid no one in the ninja world could stop it."

Nine-Tails frowned. "Indeed, that is a problem. When the Sage of Six Paths, Hamura Otsutsuki, sealed the Ten-Tails, he almost failed. If the Ten-Tails were to be formed, no one in the ninja world could stop it."

After thinking for a moment, Nine-Tails looked at Yu Ming and said, "I always felt that you had the potential because your strength is closest to that of the Sage of Six Paths. The only thing you are lacking now is Yin-Yang Release. Moreover, I think your Yang Release has reached its limit. Otherwise, your Wood Release would not be so proficient, and you could also release True Several Thousand Hands."

"Your Yang Release is definitely no worse than Ashura's, but I don't know how good your Yin Release is."

The mastery of Yin Release is actually manifested in eye power, but Yu Ming doesn't seem to have it.

However, even Nine-Tailed Fox didn't know whether Yu Ming had mastered Yin Release.

After all, it really doesn't know what the limit of Yu Ming's strength is.

"I think if there's anyone in the ninja world who can stop the Ten-Tails, that person is definitely you."
