Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 337 Kagura's goal has always been Kaguya!

The Sage of Six Paths.

Why did Akihara Kagura mention the ancient people at this time?

Sasuke Uchiha's consciousness was already in its final stages. His brain was gradually unable to think, but he was still angry that he had been killed from behind by Itachi Uchiha!

It's not that...

Has Itachi Uchiha already broken free from the control of the Edo Tensei by relying on Shisui Uchiha's Kotoamatsukami Mangekyou Sharingan?

It's not that...

Did Itachi Uchiha massacre his clan to save his younger brother?

What exactly is going on?

Amidst confusion and bewilderment, Uchiha Sasuke felt his consciousness plummeting until he was completely plunged into the abyss, where he heard a strange dripping sound.

he…

Am I going to die?

tick tock... tick tock...

The crisp sound of dripping water was somewhat pleasant.

Inside a space shaped like a water prison.

When Sasuke Uchiha's consciousness appeared here, he found himself lying in a pool of water, stretching out his palm to feel the temperature of the water.

"Is this... the afterlife?"

"It seems your ethical views on death are quite different from mine. We don't consider this to be death..."

An aged voice interrupted Uchiha Sasuke, earnestly advising, "Don't just casually say you're dead... rookie..."

"Um?"

Upon hearing that there were other people in the space, Uchiha Sasuke instinctively flipped over and jumped up, staring intently at an old man who appeared in front of him!

The old man sat cross-legged, with a circle of jet-black spheres surrounding him, as if supporting his body. He was draped in a long robe.

"Who are you!"

Sasuke Uchiha's eyes were filled with vigilance!

This old man…

Why are you here?

Besides, isn't he already dead?

Sasuke Uchiha still vividly remembered the pain of Itachi stabbing him through the back, and at that time he could clearly feel his life slipping away!

"Who are you…"

Sasuke Uchiha thought of a possibility and remembered Kagura Akihara's whispers before his death. A look of fear suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"The Sage of Six Paths... Hagoromo Otsutsuki?"

to be frank.

This is all thanks to Akihara Kagura for popularizing history.

It was through Akihara Kagura's use of the history of the three great ninja clans that the world gradually learned the Sage of Six Paths' real name and the story of this sage's past.

of course.

There are some conflicts in these stories.

Some believe the Sage of Six Paths was a demon who destroyed the world, while others believe he was a god who created the world. Some think he was a scheming man who would stop at nothing to rule the world, while still others believe he was the creator of the peaceful era of the Ninja Sect a thousand years ago.

Regardless of how the world views the Sage of Six Paths, this deity from a thousand years ago has finally regained his fame in the ninja world, letting the world know about the legend from a thousand years ago.

"They even know my real name..."

The old man slowly turned around, revealing his true face, and slowly opened his eyes, which were known to all as the eyes of an immortal.

Rinnegan.

This old man was none other than the Sage of Six Paths.

The Sage of Six Paths doesn't look like a normal person. He looks like some kind of alien human. He has a pair of small, pointed horns on his head, a crimson mark on his forehead, and Rinnegan eyes. His beard extends long from his chin, and his robe is adorned with six black magatama pendants, making him look quite dignified.

This image…

He is indeed no ordinary person.

"As expected, it's the Sage of Six Paths!"

Sasuke Uchiha was horrified. At that moment, he understood why his brother Itachi Uchiha would stab him in the back!

That's because...

Akihara Kagura guessed that she would meet the Sage of Six Paths!

All of this was a conspiracy by Akihara Kagura. He knew that he would meet the Sage of Six Paths after his death, so he asked him and the Sage of Six Paths to deliver a message before he died!

"None of this was unexpected by that guy..."

Sasuke Uchiha's hands clenched into fists, trembling as he looked at the old man before him, forced to accept the truth: "After I died, I really did see the Sage of Six Paths..."

"Newbie, you're not dead yet..."

The Sage of Six Paths looked at Sasuke Uchiha, frowning slightly, and asked with some surprise, "How do you know you would definitely see me?"

"I have no idea."

Sasuke Uchiha took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "But... Akihara Kagura knew, so he used a scheme to assassinate me, allowing me to see you at this moment... Why am I here to see you after I died? Are you here to guide me to the underworld?"

"No."

"This is a very long story."

The Sage of Six Paths slowly shook his head and began to recount the story of the past: "Because you possess the chakra of Indra, perhaps you do not know this name..."

"No, I know!"

Sasuke Uchiha interrupted the Sage of Six Paths, a look of shock appearing on his face before he slowly calmed down, recalling the various pieces of information circulating in the ninja world during this period.

actually…

Sasuke Uchiha had anticipated this.

According to the Hyuga clan's records, only those who possess the mysterious and powerful chakra passed down through generations within the Uchiha clan can awaken the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan…

Madara Uchiha was one of them…

One of them was the older brother of Akihara Kagura's ancestor...

One of them is that he was able to awaken the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

This…

Is this also the reason why Akihara Kagura believes she can meet the Sage of Six Paths?

Sasuke Uchiha narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice, "Indra is your eldest son, and also the ancestor of the Uchiha clan, right?"

"good."

The Sage of Six Paths nodded slightly and continued, "It seems the ninja world still records history from a thousand years ago. You still remember Indra's name..."

"Asura is your second son..."

Sasuke Uchiha continued, sharing the information he knew, "Ashura's chakra should be circulating within his descendants, the Senju clan, right?"

"You know that too...?"

The Sage of Six Paths slowly nodded and said softly, "That's right. However, Ashura's chakra is not only within the Senju clan, but in this life, his chakra has also appeared in another descendant named Uzumaki..."

"Uzumaki...Naruto!"

Sasuke Uchiha uttered the name the Sage of Six Paths wanted to say, his expression suddenly turning dangerous: "Naruto Uzumaki... why isn't he here?"

"He exists in another dimension of consciousness."

The Sage of Six Paths raised his palm and spoke, "If you wish to see him, I can bridge the two dimensions..."

Another space of consciousness.

Compared to the interaction between Uchiha Sasuke and the Sage of Six Paths…

The interaction between Naruto Uzumaki and the Sage of Six Paths was noticeably more lighthearted and enjoyable.

Naruto tilted his head, looking at the Sage of Six Paths before him: "Hey, Sage of Six Paths, is Kaguya Otsutsuki your youngest daughter or your mother?"

"Um?"

The Sage of Six Paths experienced a momentary blankness in his consciousness.

and many more…

Why is Kaguya his daughter?

Why has the history of the ninja world become so outlandish?

"Kaguya... is my mother."

The Sage of Six Paths clarified his relationship with Kaguya.

Naruto Uzumaki stretched out his palm and gestured back and forth, pointing to the name: "That, that Black Zetsu, that pitch-black thing, is it your Dark Will? That dark thing that wanted to revive the Ten-Tails, it said it was Kaguya's will..."

"It?"

The Sage of Six Paths frowned immediately and said in a deep voice, "Black Zetsu... should be the will left behind by my mother... why would anyone think it's my will?"

"It was mentioned in one of the records..."

Naruto Uzumaki returned to Konoha during Madara Uchiha's first battle with Kagura Akihara, and even read the inscription on a tree bark there: "It says that Black Zetsu is your dark will, that darkness has arisen in your heart, and that you want to rule the world..."

As Naruto said this, he even sized up the Sage of Six Paths: "He doesn't seem like that kind of person at all!"

"Because I wasn't..."

The Sage of Six Paths' forehead twitched, and he retorted in a deep voice, "The historical records of your era seem a bit too outrageous..."

"There's another one..."

Naruto immediately brought up another record of the Hyuga clan, which he had overheard while Hinata was recounting history: "You also have a younger brother, who is an ancestor of the Hyuga clan..."

"Hamura Yao?"

The Sage of Six Paths thought of his younger brother, and nodded with a slight smile: "I do have a younger brother, who inherited our mother's disdainful gaze..."

"Hmm..."

Naruto Uzumaki's face showed a thoughtful expression, seemingly hesitant: "He doesn't seem like a terrifying killer who would kill everyone in the ninja world..."

"Um?"

The Sage of Six Paths' forehead twitched again.

What's going on with this ninja world's historical record?

Why is it that either the relationship between his family members is wrongly recorded, or his actions are wrongly recorded? He clearly wanted to make the world a better place!

Why does this Ashura chakra reincarnation always bring up these unreliable histories? And the Indra chakra reincarnation on the other side isn't much better…

because…

Uchiha Sasuke also mentioned these historical events.

"The historical records of the Hyuga clan state..."

Sasuke Uchiha recounted the historical records of the Hyuga clan: "You and your younger brother, Hamura Otsutsuki, in order to overthrow Kaguya's rule and seize the power to rule this world, colluded with the sages of Mount Myōboku and together sealed Kaguya away..."

"In order to rule the world alone, he defeated his younger brother, Hamura Otsutsuki, and killed all those who knew about the conflict between mother and son and the fratricide at the time..."

"I...have never done that."

A black line appeared on the Sage of Six Paths' forehead. He had good control over his expression and hadn't completely broken down yet, though he felt inwardly that the history of the ninja world had been ruined...

"but…"

As the Sage of Six Paths listened to Sasuke Uchiha recount these historical events, his expression gradually grew solemn: "The outcome is the same, only the process and the initial intentions are different..."

"Many people did die in that war, because my mother and I fought such a massive battle that it devastated the entire world..."

"The reason I joined forces with Hamura to seal my mother is because she used the Divine Tree to seize the natural energy of the ninja world, and because she made humans sacrifice their lives to the Divine Tree..."

"..."

Sasuke Uchiha remained skeptical of the Sage of Six Paths.

Without him.

Because I've been scammed too many times.

Uchiha Sasuke also couldn't believe the Sage of Six Paths' words.

Who knows if the Sage of Six Paths might also be a schemer like Akihara Kagura? In these ancient historical records, the Sage of Six Paths has never been a good person!

"Your gaze is very rude... newcomer..."

The Sage of Six Paths, looking at Sasuke Uchiha with a hint of displeasure, said, "The historical records of your era are a bit too outrageous..."

"It seems..."

"I'm about to tell you the real history..."

The Sage of Six Paths sighed and had no choice but to recount the history of the ninja world from a thousand years ago to Sasuke Uchiha: "About a thousand years ago, a tall divine tree appeared on a planet and became the planet's..."

"I've heard enough of these stories..."

Sasuke Uchiha wasn't interested in these stories and went straight to the point, summarizing, "The result is always the same: Kaguya is sealed away, and you become the de facto ruler of this world..."

"..."

The Sage of Six Paths was speechless, choked by the words.

The deity from a thousand years ago fell silent for a long time before suddenly bursting into laughter: "It seems Indra's chakra remains unchanged!"

In comparison…

Ashura's chakra reincarnations are more obedient and docile.

Because Naruto listened obediently as the Sage of Six Paths recounted the past, the arrival of Kaguya and her actions, the past of the Sage of Six Paths and his brothers sealing Kaguya, and the thousand-year history of his two sons' endless struggle…

Naruto nodded obediently, and when he heard something that left him puzzled, he immediately understood. After all, what the Sage of Six Paths told was the true history, and it was more convincing to Naruto than the tree bark of the Senju clan or the wooden sticks of the Hyuga clan…

after all…

Chakra cannot be faked.

The Sage of Six Paths' remaining chakra doesn't seem to belong to any bad people.

"In short, this is a story from a thousand years ago."

After recounting his own history, the Sage of Six Paths concluded to himself, "The historical records of your era are too outrageous. The outcomes are actually the same, but the stories from a thousand years ago are recorded in such bizarre ways that those involved would feel uncomfortable hearing them..."

"This time, the Ten-Tails' resurrection gives me a bad feeling..."

"Mother has never truly died. She may reappear. She won't let the Ten-Tails' resurrection opportunity slip by. The ninja world will definitely face another crisis because of Mother's resurrection..."

"..."

Naruto Uzumaki nodded solemnly.

In another consciousness dimension, Sasuke Uchiha also listened to the story that the Sage of Six Paths forcibly told him, but Sasuke Uchiha seemed to have become certain of one thing.

"It's not a possibility, it's certain that Kaguya will be resurrected."

Remembering what Akihara Kagura had mentioned, Uchiha Sasuke said in a deep voice, "Because Kaguya's resurrection should also have been within Akihara Kagura's expectations..."

"Oh?"

The Sage of Six Paths looked at Sasuke Uchiha with surprise.

"because…"

"He asked me to ask you a question..."

Sasuke Uchiha looked at the Sage of Six Paths before him and said in a deep voice, "Sage of Six Paths, have you always been this arrogant?"

"What does this mean?"

The Sage of Six Paths was somewhat puzzled. After pondering for a moment, he seemed to understand something: "Does that little fellow think I'm arrogant because I've been watching coldly from the sidelines?"

"it is a pity."

"I just had no other choice."

The Sage of Six Paths looked at his own body and said softly, "Now I only have a remnant of my chakra left, dwelling in the crack between the Pure Land and the mortal world. Even if I wanted to resolve the crisis brought about by my mother's resurrection, the best way would be to entrust my power to you. This is a very dangerous thing for you, because my mother's power is extremely strong, far surpassing that of any human in this world..."

"Is that so?"

Sasuke Uchiha glanced at the Sage of Six Paths and continued in a deep voice, "Perhaps Kagura Akihara can help. Kagura asked you if you need his services to help us resolve Kaguya's troubles, and what you can offer him..."

"Hehehehe..."

The Sage of Six Paths chuckled softly. He slowly shook his head, seemingly somewhat skeptical of Akihara Kagura, yet also nonchalant, and said, "If that powerful little fellow is willing to help, that would be wonderful. Unfortunately, I can't offer him anything. Perhaps when I have the chance to meet him, I can ask him what he needs..."

"Wait, just a moment."

After the Sage of Six Paths finished speaking, he realized that something was not quite right.

The old man seemed to be struggling to process his remaining chakra. He hesitated before speaking, "Based on my observations and monitoring just now, that little guy named Akihara Kagura is the mastermind behind the Ten-Tails' resurrection. He wants to use the Ten-Tails to destroy the world... But he also said he wanted to help deal with his mother who might be resurrected? Then why would he want to resurrect the Ten-Tails?"

This ninja is a bit outrageous!

In order to save the world, Madara Uchiha became the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki, but this led to a potentially greater crisis, forcing him to reveal his remaining chakra and bestow the sealing power upon Indra and Ashura's chakra reincarnations!

this moment…

The Sage of Six Paths was somewhat confused.

Uchiha Sasuke knew Akihara Kagura very well, and a knowing glint flashed in his eyes. Perhaps at this moment he understood something!

"Because of his purpose..."

Sasuke Uchiha spoke in a deep voice, revealing a truth he had pieced together: "It has always been Kaguya."

"These are not contradictory at all."

"Akihara Kagura wants to revive Kaguya..."

"Using Kaguya's power to destroy and create the world..."

"Because Kaguya's power is the strongest, right?"

Uchiha Sasuke recalled the information he had received in the past, and after figuring everything out, he revealed the truth: "But... Akihara Kagura will achieve her own goals... She had already planned everything..."

"Because he guessed we would see you..."

"He must have guessed that Naruto and I are reincarnations of Indra and Ashura's chakra..."

"You just mentioned... that you would grant Naruto and me the power to seal Kaguya..."

"Before we return to the present world..."

Sasuke Uchiha felt a chill run down his spine, realizing he had once again fallen into Kagura Akihara's trap: "Kagura Akihara will definitely revive Kaguya directly, making her do everything for him..."

"And at that time..."

"We must have already returned to the present world..."

Sasuke Uchiha raised his eyes slightly and revealed Kagura Akihara's plan: "We can use the power you gave us to help him seal Kaguya."

"Such a deep and cunning conspiracy?"

The Sage of Six Paths shook his head, sighing with a hint of helplessness, "The ninjas of your era are truly terrifying!"

"I know very well just how cunning he is."

Sasuke Uchiha considered everything, yet realized he had no way to break the deadlock: "Even though I've guessed his scheme, I ultimately have no choice but to do exactly what he predicted..."

"It's always been like this..."

"Even knowing that I was bound to fall into his trap, it was still too late."

Five thousand words!

It's getting late!
