From the night of genocide, marching towards the strongest.

Straight to that supreme bloodline net!

"The planning and accumulation of the past five years since my transmigration has allowed me to possess the strength of Madara Hashirama within a year. Whether I can ascend to the Bloodline Limit depends on my next two years!"

Thinking of this, Sasuke sneered inwardly. He knew that his actions over the years had made the Sage of Six Paths wary, and the creation of the Ten-Tails had even prompted the Sage of Six Paths to personally intervene and warn him.

Although his guilt towards his eldest son prevented the Sage of Six Paths from actually attacking Sasuke.

But Sasuke knew that it was practically impossible to get the Sage of Six Paths to give him another power-up.

But so what?

Sasuke's current strength comes from his own years of hard work and planning, and has never been a gift from anyone.

I, Uchiha Sasuke, have gotten to where I am today entirely on my own!

I, Uchiha Sasuke, didn't use any cheat codes!!

After giving a cold snort to himself, Sasuke turned and left the room used to improve Kiga, heading towards the room where the small Ten-Tails was kept.

Since the Ten-Tails is a living creature, it cannot be placed in a storage scroll, so Sasuke could only place it in a secret room in the base.

At the same time, he filled the room with various isolation and protective barriers, and the Little Ten-Tails was his "weapon," and he also had Sasuke's specially made Flying Thunder God Short Sword by his side.

In this way, even if the enemy has space-time techniques and can infiltrate this room, Sasuke can sense it immediately and teleport to the side of the Ten-Tails using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Ok?

As soon as Sasuke entered the room where the Ten-Tails was kept, and was about to head towards it, a white glow in a corner of the dark room caught his attention.

Sasuke frowned, stepped forward to take a look, and discovered that it was a crystal stone as clear and blue as a glass diamond, its brilliance shimmering like water.

Besides its beautiful appearance, Sasuke could also sense that the stone contained a very strong amount of water-style chakra. The quality and quantity of its chakra were in no way inferior to Sasuke's own divine weapon, and its rating was seven stars!

"........."

The Sage of Six Paths actually gave me a treasure?

Sasuke was absolutely certain that the Water Cobalt containing Water Release Chakra must have been brought here by the Sage of Six Paths.

Only the Sage of Six Paths could sneak into this room without him noticing.

Only the Sage of Six Paths, who was secretly observing him, knew that he was collecting the five elemental artifacts in order to awaken his Rinnegan.

Only the Sage of Six Paths knew that he had found artifacts of four different attributes, but lacked one of the water attribute.

However, what the Sage of Six Paths didn't know was that Sasuke was a man of great pride and would never accept charity.

Besides, who knows if this ancient coin is really that kind?

Who knows if he left any hidden tricks inside?

Just like the hidden trick he left inside the demonic statue!

Do I need to rely on your kindness, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, for something I can obtain through my own efforts?

Others might beg for a power-up from the Sage of Six Paths, but I, Uchiha Sasuke, don't care for it at all.

Ah!

After a cold laugh to himself, Sasuke formed the Sage's Seal in his palm. He wanted to see just how many hidden tricks the Sage of Six Paths had left behind.

Huh?

Data without the "instrument"?

No, no, it's not that simple. Let me check it again.

Ok?

There really isn't one!

Don't be fooled. The Sage of Six Paths wouldn't be so kind. Even if there's no "artifact" inside, there must be some other hidden tricks that are hard to detect!

Sasuke's gaze sharpened, and he continued his examination. However, no matter how he examined it, he could only helplessly discover that the crystal contained only pure, clear, and abundant water-attribute chakra.

"........"

Seeing this, Sasuke fell into a deep silence, silently putting the crystal into his pocket. After a long while, he finally uttered two words:

"It's so fragrant!"

...........

The plot hole about the water-escape artifact from the Kingdom of Lieduo was originally set up, but it's been abandoned now. The pace will be sped up, and we'll try to finish it within two months.

Chapter 306 Sage Mode and Eight Gates Formation

Mt. Miaomu.

Hahahahahahahahaha!

A loud, arrogant laugh echoed throughout the entire mountain range.

Naruto stood on a hill, one hand on his hip and the other holding the Sage's Staff, laughing wildly.

At this moment, his appearance changed slightly. His once clear blue eyes became vertical golden pupils, and bright red eyeshadow appeared around them. The incredibly active and abundant natural energy of Mount Myōboku flowed into his body continuously.

"I, Naruto Uzumaki, am truly a genius among geniuses, one in a million! I will surely surpass all the Hokage in the future. Sage Mode is nothing, I learned it with ease! Hahahaha!"

"Naruto is still prone to getting carried away."

In the distance, Jiraiya, arms crossed, saw this scene with a mixture of helplessness and relief. He shook his head, his expression turning serious, and spoke to the sage Shima beside him:

"Is that the Sage's Staff in Naruto's hand? How did he get it?"

Yesterday, Naruto, who was supposed to have finished his training and go to eat and rest, suddenly rushed up to him in a panic, pointing at the staff in his hand and saying that something was fishy about it.

Jiraiya was left speechless, both amused and exasperated. After taking the staff and examining it, he was startled by its contents.

The Yin-Yang Release chakra contained within was unlike anything Jiraiya had ever seen before, both in quality and quantity. Even his disciple Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan, could not match its chakra quality.

Although Jiraiya had never seen what the Sage's Staff looked like, he figured that only the Sage's Staff of the Six Paths in legends could possess such pure and powerful Yin-Yang Release.

"It must be the Sage's Staff of the Sage of Six Paths!"

Shima Sage nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said, "The reason why Naruto was able to obtain the Sage's Staff must have been arranged by the Great Toad Sage."

"The Great Toad Sage?" Jiraiya asked, puzzled.

“Hmm!” Shima explained, “The Great Toad Sage and the Sage of Rokudo are old friends who have known each other for many years. Moreover, I once heard the Great Toad Sage say that the Sage of Rokudo has a deep connection with our Mount Myōboku. Before he entered the Buddhist order and became a monk, the Sage of Rokudo practiced sage arts on Mount Myōboku. So this sage's staff should have been entrusted to the Great Toad Sage by the Sage of Rokudo for safekeeping.”

At this point, the Sage Shima smiled meaningfully: "So, Jiraiya, you've found the child of prophecy you've been looking for—Naruto! It's because he is the child prophesied by the Great Toad Sage that the Great Toad Sage gave him the Sage Staff, and that's why the Sage Staff recognizes Naruto as its master!"

Is Naruto the child of prophecy?

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya's eyes flickered, and he was shaken.

The two previous chosen prophets had both died young, so he felt that Naruto might be the only one among the legendary prophets.

However, Jiraiya had only thought it was possible before, and he was not absolutely certain.

But now Naruto has actually obtained the Sage's Staff of the Six Paths, which is a divine artifact symbolizing the inheritance of the Ninja Sect!

The artifacts possess a spirit and choose their own masters!

Jiraiya recalled how the Sage's Staff had practically begged Naruto for help, and while he found it amusing, it further solidified his belief that Naruto was the child of prophecy.

Not to mention Jiraiya's shock, another guy was even more overwhelmed.

"This is the Sage's Staff of the Six Paths Elder!?"

Inside Naruto's body, Kurama, with a shocked expression, sensed the familiar energy emanating from the Sage Staff in Naruto's hand and murmured in disbelief:

"So this arrogant brat is the reincarnation of Asura in this generation?"

Kurama was no stranger to the reincarnations of Ashura and Indra, and it had even guessed that Naruto was the reincarnation of Ashura in this generation.

After all, the reincarnations of Asuras and Indra throughout history have all been exceptionally gifted, and they have a love-hate relationship with each other.

Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha, both in terms of their displayed talents and their relationship, are extremely consistent with the identity of Ashura Indra reincarnation.

Although Kurama had already guessed Naruto's identity as Ashura, he did not take the initiative to talk to him.

What's a bit strange about the Nine-Tailed Fox is that, for thousands of years, it has always been the reincarnations of Asura who have defeated the reincarnations of Indra.

This time, however, things were reversed. Naruto was constantly getting beaten and never won.

Of course, Kurama also knew that it couldn't be blamed on Naruto for being disappointing. Naruto's talent was among the best of all the Ashuras in history. It was just that this generation's Indra was too monstrous.

Naruto was so monstrous that even the Six Paths Elder couldn't resist secretly intervening and handing over the Sage's Staff to him.

and many more!

Thinking of this, Kurama's eyes narrowed: "This brat is not just the reincarnation of Ashura, he is the prophesied child that the old man of the Six Paths mentioned!"

A blue-eyed boy who calls out the name of the nine-headed beast with a playful laugh.

This is the image of the prophesied child left to them by the Sage of Six Paths before he disappeared. He said that one day a blue-eyed boy would appear who would be recognized by all the tailed beasts and know the names of all the tailed beasts. That boy would change the world.

Kurama suddenly realized that Naruto's personality and the color of his eyes were exactly the same as the boy predicted by the Sage of Six Paths!

Moreover, he also gained the approval of the Immortal's Staff.

"........"

After a while, the shock on Nine-Tails' face disappeared, and it returned to its indifferent state.

So what if he's the reincarnation of an Asura?

So what if he is the child of prophecy?

Old man, your prediction may not be accurate.

Nine-Tails thought to himself with mixed feelings.

The Sage of Six Paths once told them that the Ninja Sect was founded to maintain peace, tranquility, and order, and to create a world where people understand each other.

However, neither the Sage of Six Paths nor Ashura, who inherited the Ninja Sect, could accomplish it.

His disciples and followers had long forgotten the sect's principles and were using the power passed down by the Sage of Six Paths to fight each other endlessly.

What kind of mutual understanding is there?

What kind of humans and tailed beasts can coexist peacefully?
