Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

Baiyun Qingye clapped his hands, and as thick vines sprouted from the ground, a thousand-armed Buddha, several times taller than Sasuke's Susanoo, appeared out of thin air.

"?"

What is this?

How come I've never seen him before?

Standing atop Susanoo's head, Sasuke stared blankly up at the towering Buddha before him, his mind filled with questions.

All the invincible thoughts that had arisen from the awakening of the Rinnegan were suddenly put aside.

When those fists rained down, Sasuke's face was no longer brimming with the arrogance he had shown before.

Chapter 845: The Most Heartbreaking Episode

"..."

It was just a friendly sparring match, and the purpose was simply to help Sasuke calm down from the restlessness caused by his sudden surge in power.

This is a routine thing that Sasuke does every time his strength increases.

Moreover, Sasuke had only just awakened the Rinnegan and didn't fully understand how to use many of his abilities, so Shirakumo Aoba naturally couldn't use the Susanoo set like he did against Otsutsuki Hagoromo.

Even this giant Buddha statue was only about half the height it was when it fought Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

But for Sasuke's Susanoo, which is less than 200 meters long, this is already an insurmountable height.

Faced with the dense barrage of fists, Sasuke's previously arrogant attitude immediately calmed down, and his eyes became clear.

But since the fight has already begun, there's no reason to pull back your fist.

After the earth shook violently, Sasuke's Susanoo was like a lone boat in a storm, shattered in the raging wind and rain.

Sasuke himself, naturally, lay down in a huge pit with a constipated look on his face.

"Sasuke, are you alright?"

Once everything was over, Naruto naturally rushed over to check on him immediately.

That gloating smile on his face clearly showed that he wasn't being very sincere.

Although the huge weapon that Aoba just used looked terrifying, it certainly wouldn't be used to seriously harm Sasuke.

And as mentioned before, he's been used to it since he was a child.

At first, whenever Sasuke was depressed after being beaten by Aoba, Naruto would try to come and comfort him.

But as the number of times increased, and given that Sasuke's arrogance was truly infuriating, he ended up getting punched.

Naruto's attitude gradually changed from concern to indifference, and finally to schadenfreude.

"Humph!"

Sasuke just snorted and turned his face away, looking like he didn't want to talk to him.

Looking at Sasuke's current state, Hagoromo Otsutsuki couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Just a few hours earlier, he had been lying there, seemingly lifeless, under the attack of Baiyun Qingye.

It really is just like that moment.

After the battle ended, Shirokumo Aoba naturally retrieved the Great Buddha and landed next to Naruto. Together they looked at Sasuke lying on the ground, their expressions filled with amusement.

"Alright, for the next two days, you should follow this Sage of Six Paths and train diligently to get used to the power you have just acquired."

Since their power comes from Hagoromo Otsutsuki, it is most appropriate for them to be taught by each other.

"Ok!"

"Humph!"

Naruto naturally wouldn't refuse, and although Sasuke snorted, he seemed to accept it as well.

"In that case, I have other things to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

After handing the two over to Hagoromo Otsutsuki, Shirokumo Aoba disappeared from the spot.

Only after he left did Sasuke stand up again.

Bai Yunqingye held back just now; he wasn't injured at all.

Having been so arrogant before, and then being beaten so badly, he simply lay on the ground for a while longer.

"Can you help me defeat Shirokumo Aoba?"

Sasuke stared at Hagoromo Otsutsuki and asked the question.

"Ah, this..."

Hagoromo Otsutsuki's expression immediately turned awkward.

He was their temporary teacher, not a wishing well.

Sasuke knew the answer just by looking at his expression, so he simply settled for second best.

"Then can you teach me how to block his attack just now?"

"..."

Hagoromo Otsutsuki's lips twitched involuntarily, but he still managed to adopt the demeanor of an elder.

"Ahem, young people shouldn't be overly ambitious; they should be down-to-earth and take it one step at a time."

"..."

Sasuke squinted involuntarily.

He was now certain that the old man had also lost because of that one move.

Although he was not as strong as Bai Yun Qingye, since Bai Yun Qingye thought this old man could make him stronger, he would listen and see.

ps.

They've taken me to the dark room!!!

Although it was expected, I didn't expect it to happen so close to the end. There are dozens of chapters to revise; it's frustrating.

Chapter 846 is finally out!

While Sasuke and Naruto were getting used to their newly acquired powers with Hagoromo Otsutsuki, Aoba Shirakumo returned to the Hokage Building, where he had always been loyal.

"You're back so early today?"

Shizune was also surprised that Shirokumo Aoba came back after get off work.

Although he said he was going to attend to important matters, saying it concerned the future of the ninja world.

But Jingyin's intuition told her that the future the other person was talking about was probably a little bit frivolous.

"Well, I'll come back once things are settled."

After sitting down in her seat, Baiyun Qingye leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes to rest.

"..."

Seeing his leisurely demeanor, Shizune couldn't help but roll her eyes and then complained.

"If you're just here to sleep, you might as well go home and be more comfortable. You'll have Yukito and Koto to keep you company."

"Sister Shizune, I just fought a fierce battle for the future of the ninja world. Don't you feel any pity for me at all?"

Baiyun Qingye listened to her complaints and replied innocently.

"A major battle?"

Shizune was taken aback again upon hearing this, and then said with a somewhat strange expression.

"The great battle you're referring to, you mean a real, serious battle, right?"

She's not some naive young girl; who knows if this rascal's talk of a big battle is actually serious?

Moreover, are there any beings in the ninja world now capable of challenging Aoba?

"Ah, this..."

When Baiyun Qingye heard Jingyin's question, she opened her mouth, but for a moment she was speechless.

But it's not entirely Jingyin's fault; he is indeed a bit unserious most of the time.

But this time he really did something serious.

Bai Yun Qingye's previously lazy posture instantly changed, and she sat up straight.

"Of course it's serious. I did have a great battle with the Sage of Six Paths."

"The Sage of Six Paths... doesn't seem like him..."

When Shizune heard this title, she didn't react at first.

After all, those were things from a thousand years ago.

Although ninja academy teachers usually cover the history of the ninja world when teaching it, it is ultimately too far removed from the past.

It's hard to immediately associate it with silence.

She was still thinking that this title didn't seem like something a girl would be given.

After thinking about it carefully for a while, she suddenly widened her eyes.

"Wait! You mean the Sage of Six Paths... is it the Sage of Six Paths I know?"

"..."

Seeing that it took her so long to react, and considering Jingyin's original expression, Baiyun Qingye was speechless.

"So when you heard about the Sage of Six Paths, what was the first thing that came to mind?"

Mute: "..."

Is it her fault that she would have such a misunderstanding?
