I am the new Hokage of Konoha.

He wasn't worried that the collapse of the moon would release Kaguya Otsutsuki.

The true seal that imprisoned the latter was the seal jointly cast by the Hagoromo and Hamura brothers, not the lunar rock layers that served only as a cover.

Even if the moon were split in two, the seal wouldn't be broken, and Kaguya Otsutsuki still wouldn't be able to escape.

However, if the moon were to be destroyed and turn into meteorites hurtling towards the ninja world, although the Cloud Court could intercept them, it would still be a troublesome situation.

In addition, for thousands of years, people have been accustomed to seeing a moon hanging overhead and have given the moon various connotations.

Let's avoid changing things if we can avoid it.

In a good mood, Yun Ting not only gathered his power but also used his newly acquired Six Paths Power to reinforce the moon.

After completing all this, he glanced at the nine Seeking Truth Orbs that were constantly floating around him.

Although the strength of a Six Paths level figure is not directly related to the number of Truth-Seeking Balls, Yun Ting, who possesses nine Truth-Seeking Balls, is essentially equipped with nine deadly weapons, making him even stronger.

Furthermore, based on his own understanding of chakra and the knowledge inherited from the giant Tenseigan, he has entered the Six Paths Mode and now possesses the same bloodline limit as Kaguya Otsutsuki and Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

He has mastered abilities such as Yomotsu Hirasaka, Yakushin Kujuku, and Kyo-satsu Ash Bones, which are all bloodline limits.

Only Infinite Tsukuyomi, and Amaterasu Minaka, whose abilities require consuming a Chakra Fruit and awakening the Rinne Sharingan, are absent.

With this combination, and having the foundation of Six Paths-level combat power even before reaching the Six Paths level, even Yun Ting himself would find it difficult to judge how powerful he would be if he unleashed his full strength, or where he would rank among the many powerful members of the Otsutsuki clan.

However, there is a ready-made opponent here.

In an instant, Yun Ting's Rinnegan, which was still purple but even more profound and now exuded a sense of nobility, turned and looked toward the core of the moon.

That is the place where Kaguya Otsutsuki was sealed.

The seal created by the Hagoromo and Hamura brothers was aimed at Kaguya Otsutsuki herself, preventing her from escaping the sealed space even with her ability to travel between different dimensions, such as Yomotsu Hirasaka.

However, if Yun Ting wanted to, he could use his own Yomotsu Hirasaka to enter the sealed space where Kaguya was located and come out at any time.

This can be illustrated by the fact that in the future, Otsuki Urashiki used Yomotsu Hirasaka to enter the resealed Kaguya lava space, and then used Yomotsu Hirasaka to leave.

Having identified his target, Yun Ting was eager to set off and fight Kaguya to test his current strength.

Suddenly, a chakra fluctuation of the same level as his own, also at the Six Paths level, appeared before him.

"This is......"

Yun Ting's eyes flashed, and he instantly thought of someone, blurting out:

"The Sage of Six Paths!"

"It is indeed me," an aged voice rang out.

Like a phantom, the Sage of Six Paths, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, appeared before Yun Ting.

Yun Ting looked at this legendary figure with a hint of surprise.

Without a doubt, the other party was already dead.

Although Hagoromo Hamura is the son of Kaguya Otsutsuki, he is not a pure-blooded member of the Otsutsuki clan and therefore cannot enjoy the clan's unique lifespan of several thousand years.

No matter how powerful they are, they will eventually die of old age.

Unlike Hamura, Hagoromo, the Sage of Six Paths and founder of Ninjutsu, continued to let his chakra carry his will after his death, floating in the world and protecting the ninja world for countless years.

Even if one cannot actively participate in everything in the world, one can still act as an old man who imparts knowledge and skills.

Before reaching the Six Paths level, Yun Ting couldn't fully grasp the power behind Hagoromo Otsutsuki's actions.

Now, standing at a higher vantage point, and understanding more deeply, he couldn't help but marvel at how powerful Hagoromo Otsutsuki was, still able to transmit Six Paths-level combat power even a thousand years after his death.

It's not clear that Ashura and Indra's chakra reincarnations can only bring powerful talents to the reincarnated individuals, but cannot directly infuse them with Six Paths-level combat power like Hagoromo Otsutsuki did.

Furthermore, the two of them only influence the fate of their reincarnated incarnations; they cannot awaken whenever they want like Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

So he truly deserves to be called the Sage of Six Paths.

In Yun Ting's view, neither his younger brother Hamura nor his sealed mother Kaguya had progressed as far as Hagoromo Otsutsuki in terms of the essence of power and the path of chakra.

I am not as good as him now.

Perhaps, he will only be able to catch up when he swallows several more Otsutsuki in the future.

Chapter 355 The Arrival of the Six Paths Immortal

"I never imagined that a thousand years later, a figure at the Six Paths level would be born on this planet again."

With a head of coffee-colored hair, two horns on his forehead, and wearing a white robe with black magatama patterns, Otsutsuki Hagoromo suddenly appeared in front of Yun Ting, his face showing surprise and admiration.

Although somewhat surprised, Yun Ting said, "With our predecessors as role models, I, as a junior, naturally must strive to catch up."

"In that case, I, as a senior, am truly ashamed," said Hagoromo Otsutsuki, shaking his head with a sigh.

He was acutely aware of the difficulty of reaching the Six Paths level.

Although he made his own efforts back then, it cannot be denied that as a direct descendant of Kaguya Otsutsuki, the Otsutsuki blood flowing in his veins provided him with a lot of help when breaking through to the Six Paths level.

The young man before him was a descendant of Ashura, which Hagoromo Otsutsuki naturally knew.

However, after a thousand years, the bloodline has been diluted too much, yet the other party was able to break through to the Six Paths level at such a young age.

His talent amazed him.

This is one of the reasons why I, who have not appeared for thousands of years, have appeared at this moment.

'It's a pity you don't know, Ancestor, that I'm just as overpowered as you.' Yun Ting smiled inwardly as he looked at Hagoromo Otsutsuki's expression.

After a brief conversation, Yun Ting inquired about the important matter:

"What brings the Sage of Six Paths to appear so suddenly?"

Although he called out "Ancestor" in his heart, a thousand years had passed. Although he felt it was necessary to respect him, Yun Ting could not truly feel much affection for this ancestor from dozens of generations ago whom he had never met before.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki was naturally aware of this as well.

Without taking advantage of his seniority, he always treated him as an equal before turning back to Yun Ting and saying, "My appearance here is not only to meet new like-minded people, but also to plead with you, Yun Ting."

"Plead for mercy?" Yun Ting asked in surprise.

"Yes. I plead for my mother." As Hagoromo Otsutsuki said this, he glanced in the direction where the giant Tenseigan had been and sighed slightly.

He has lingered in the ninja world in chakra form for a thousand years, and his will has remained dormant unless a catastrophe occurs that could destroy the entire world.

Therefore, he was previously unaware of Yun Ting's past, as well as the eye technique that could absorb the power of the Rinnegan from its source.

But the moon is where one's mother is sealed away.

He, who had been paying close attention here, finally had his will awaken when he discovered that Yun Ting had absorbed the Reincarnation Eye. Then he saw the power of the eye technique Samsara, which even he had to take a deep look at.

From a level of perspective, the enormous Tenseigan, already a Six Paths Treasure, had no power to resist. All its power was transformed into nourishment and completely absorbed by Yun Ting.

With the knowledge and insight that Hagoromo Otsutsuki possessed, he could naturally deduce what the results would be if this technique were used on a person.

It's hard to imagine that there's a type of eye technique within the Rinnegan that specifically targets other Rinnegan, or more precisely, the Otsutsuki clan.

Although her mother, who ate the Chakra Fruit, possessed immortality, she had previously been forced to seal her away.

However, if Yun Ting were to defeat his mother and use the Reincarnation Eye Technique, it is highly likely that even if his mother possessed an immortal body, she would become nourishment under the Eye Technique and, after being completely absorbed, would truly face death.

She is, after all, her own mother.

Although he was a filial son, no matter what, he still couldn't bear to watch his mother truly die. When he noticed that Yun Ting was clearly focused on the seal inside the core of the moon, he chose to reveal himself, hoping that Yun Ting would spare his mother.

"I haven't even started yet..." Upon hearing the explanation, Yun Ting was both amused and exasperated.

Kaguya Otsutsuki was, after all, a powerful being of the Six Paths. Before he even started fighting, Hagoromo Otsutsuki jumped out to persuade him.

Is this a sign of confidence in one's own abilities?

Or perhaps he loved his mother, whom he had sealed away for a thousand years, too deeply?

Yun Ting expressed his incomprehension regarding this first family drama in the ninja world.

However, he still nodded and said, "Sage of Six Paths, please rest assured. My purpose in going to see the progenitor of chakra this time is simply to test my strength after advancing to the Six Paths level."

Yun Ting never intended to devour Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Although there is no real affection, the other person is still one's ancestor from which one originated.

There's always a strange feeling about actually swallowing it.

In addition, there was Hagoromo Otsutsuki, whose true strength was unknown, watching from the side.

Even though he had reached the Six Paths level, Yun Ting did not want to truly face the combined forces of this mother and son.

Since there are so many Otsutsuki clan members to devour in this universe, why bother focusing on just one person?

As mentioned earlier, Yun Ting really wants to find a formidable opponent to test himself.

Previously, only Kaguya Otsutsuki caught his eye here, so naturally he wanted to go find her.

But now...

Yun Ting's eyes lit up, and he looked at Otsutsuki Hagoromo with a burning fighting spirit in his eyes, saying, "Actually, it's not necessary to seek out that ancestor of chakra. The Sage of Six Paths has been famous in the ninja world for a thousand years. Why don't I come and learn a thing or two from you, Sage of Six Paths?"

Seeing that the battle had suddenly turned to him, Hagoromo Otsutsuki's lips twitched subtly, and he laughed skillfully, brushing it off, saying, "I am already a dead man. Being able to appear in the world briefly in chakra form is already my limit, and I can't exert any strength. How could I be a match for you, Yun Ting? If it's just a contest, Yun Ting, you should go find my mother."

Knowing that Yun Ting had no intention of killing his mother, Otsutsuki Hagoromo decisively shifted the blame eastward and extricated himself.

Yun Ting chuckled to himself at this.

He refused to believe the old man in front of him that he had no strength at all.

How weak could someone be to easily transfer power to Naruto and Sasuke, granting them the power of the Six Paths?

Instead of personally confronting Kaguya, he sent Naruto and Sasuke, who had inherited his power, to risk their lives as the vanguard.

This kind of cunning behavior is exactly the same as the current practice of immediately withdrawing upon hearing that one's mother is alright, without taking any action oneself.

Yun Ting shook his head.

Since Hagoromo Otsutsuki remained unwilling to fight, he couldn't force him.

After bidding farewell to the other party, Yun Ting cast the Yellow Springs Risaka spell and was about to step into the dark portal to continue his plan.

Suddenly, Otsutsuki Hagoromo said, "Yun Ting, when I return, I have a gift for you."

Will this put my mind at ease?

Yun Ting's first thought was that Otsutsuki Hagoromo was trying to ensure his mother's safety in this way.
