Kakashi was furious upon seeing the group of Iwagakure ninjas.

Some of them were the ninjas who ambushed Kakashi, Obito, and Rin Nohara, and it was they who caused Obito's death.

That was also the closest Kakashi came to death on the battlefield of World War III.

If Minato Namikaze had arrived any later, Kakashi and Rin would have followed in the footsteps of Obito and the other ninjas, dying a miserable death on the battlefield between Konoha and Iwagakure in the Land of Grass.

Meanwhile, Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki and leader of the Iwagakure team, was also sizing up the new reinforcements.

There's no need to say much about Ebizo of Sunagakure. During the war, he was one of the representative figures of Sunagakure and belonged to the most famous group of ninjas in the ninja world.

So "Han" bypassed Sunagakure and the others, and spoke sarcastically to the four members of the Uchiha clan.

"Hmph, Konoha sent these few brats to their deaths? It seems Konoha is really finished."

Of the four Uchiha Sō, the oldest, Uchiha Sō, looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years old.

The younger ones, Guy, Kakashi, and Shisui, were only fourteen or fifteen years old.

Therefore, he does appear to be a head shorter than the ninjas from Iwagakure and Sunagakure.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Sho's eyes turned cold, and he coldly retorted.

"You'd better be careful, or you might accidentally die at the hands of these brats."

If it were someone else provoking him, Uchiha Sō would probably not bother with it.

But facing the Jinchūriki of the Iwagakure Tailed Beasts, he was already thinking about how to find a reason to attack them.

Now that the other party has laid bare their reasons, Uchiha Sho is even less likely to "indulge" them.

The man, who had his arms crossed over his chest, suddenly frowned.

"Kid, do you want to die?"

As a Jinchūriki, when has anyone in the ninja world ever dared to speak to me like that?

"If you can do it, you can give it a try!"

Facing a powerful Jinchuriki from Iwagakure, Uchiha Sō was completely unconcerned. Instead, he took a step forward, revealing his murderous intent.

Uchiha Sō knew perfectly well why Iwagakure and the others had provoked them.

Undoubtedly, the impact of the unexpected deaths of the Third Hokage, the Fourth Hokage, and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki continues to reverberate.

The Sand Village, which is slightly weaker, is currently behaving relatively well, while the Mist Village, under the control of Uchiha Sō, is busy with internal strife.

However, the powerful Iwagakure and Kumogakure began to stir with restlessness.

However, the more this was the case, the less the Uchiha clan could back down.

This probing behavior will not stop because of retreat; on the contrary, the more you retreat, the more your opponent's probing will intensify!

Sensing the murderous intent emanating from Uchiha Eboshi, Han narrowed his eyes and slowly touched the hilt of the ninja sword at his waist. He realized that Uchiha Eboshi was not bluffing.

On Uchiha Eiji's side, Kakashi, Shisui, and Guy immediately assumed fighting stances.

Meanwhile, the Iwagakure ninjas on the opposite side also became wary.

Instantly, the atmosphere in the hall became tense.

The priestess on the prayer mat stepped forward at the opportune moment and offered her advice.

"Fellow ninjas, please put aside your prejudices for now. The demons from another realm are approaching this place."

Both sides were well aware that infighting was not a wise choice with the monsters approaching, so they compromised and maintained a temporary, superficial peace.

Ebizo, who had been observing coldly from the sidelines, asked the shrine maiden.

"Your Highness, could you please describe the current situation to us?"

The priestess nodded.

"What we are about to face is a foreign monster called 'Wangliang'. To be honest, it was summoned from another world by a group of cultists from our country called the Yellow Springs Cult."

"The barrier I set up can stop the demons and the terracotta warriors they control, but it cannot stop the cultists of the Yellow Springs Cult."

"Therefore, just before the demon arrives, it will definitely order those heretics of the Yellow Springs Cult to attack this place."

"Once this place is breached by the demons, it will have no more scruples, and the whole world will be turned into hell in its madness."

After hearing the priestess's introduction, everyone except Uchiha Sō had a gloomy expression.

Although they had not yet seen the true form of the alien demon, they had already dealt with the indestructible terracotta warriors.

I've mentally assessed that if these terracotta warrior puppets were allowed to spread throughout the entire ninja world, the situation would likely become unmanageable.

Uchiha Eiji cut straight to the point.

"Your Highness, do you have any way to deal with that monster?"

The priestess glanced thoughtfully at the composed Uchiha Sho, then spoke while gently stroking the little girl resting on her lap.

“I can seal the demon, but the sealing location must be in the Demon-Sealing Mountain of the Swamp Country.”

The fact that otherworldly monsters can be sealed away is obviously good news.

However, the sealing location had to be Mount Fumo, far away in the Swamp Country, which posed a challenge for everyone.

Uchiha Xiang crossed his arms and smiled.

"How do we lure the monsters to the Sealed Demon Mountain in the Swamp Country?"

The priestess smiled gently: "You need not worry about this. To that monster, I am the greatest threat."

"As long as I go to Fengmo Mountain, it will definitely catch up with me."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi immediately took out the map he always carried and spread it out on the ground.

Although the Land of Swamps is adjacent to the Land of Demons, the distance between Mount Fumo and the Shrine Maiden's Palace is still over a hundred kilometers.

Considering that the shrine maiden is not a ninja, and that the route is treacherous with steep mountains and swift rivers, the specific route must be carefully planned.

Ebizo pondered for a moment before speaking.

“Those terracotta warriors outside aren’t really that troublesome. Once we break through their encirclement, they’re too slow to catch up with us.”

As the puppet master of Sunagakure, he knows best how to deal with all kinds of puppets.

Chapter 181, The Difficulty of Breaking Through to the Sixth Path Level

Seeing the performance of the Konoha and Sunagakure ninjas, Han, the leader of the Iwagakure team, naturally did not want to be outdone and offered a reminder.

"The terracotta warriors aren't the real problem; the real problem is that monster and that group of cultists."

The cultists of the Yellow Springs Cult were originally just a group of second-rate ninjas, and their leader, Yellow Springs, was only a regular Jonin.

However, they have now obtained the power of the demons and gained an almost inexhaustible supply of evil chakra.

They can unleash ninjutsu without restraint, even large-scale combination ninjutsu, increasing their threat level dramatically.

Considering that the situation would become uncontrollable if they were chased by these cultists on their way to Fengmo Mountain, Uchiha Xiang said, "Kill Tengteng."

"Instead of being besieged by monsters and the Yellow Springs Cult on the way, we should use the barrier here that can block monsters and terracotta warriors as bait to deal with the Yellow Springs Cult first, and then escort the priestess to the Sealed Demon Mountain in the Swamp Country."

After listening to Uchiha Sō's words, Ebizō gave him a deep look, seemingly lost in thought.

This person's wisdom is comparable to mine; he could never be an unknown figure from Konoha.

It seems these kids from Konoha aren't so simple.

I originally thought that Kakashi Hatake was the leader of Konoha's operation, but now it seems that I was wrong.

"That's what we think too."

Seeing that Konoha and Sunagakure had reached an agreement, the "Han" from Iwagakure hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded as well.

"We have no objections!"

With the consensus reached among Konoha, Sunagakure, and Iwagakure.

The priestess's palace was immediately mobilized in preparation for the impending fierce battle.

Because of the Sharingan and taijutsu's "powerful" abilities, Uchiha Sō, who possesses both insight and defensive attributes, was assigned to the main hall to closely protect the priestess and her daughter.

Unlike the others who were worried, Uchiha Sō awakened the Eternal Eye and became the new God of the Shinobi World. With his strength, as long as he didn't care about the consequences, even the demons wouldn't last long against him.

If it weren't for the Sage of Six Paths and the Otsutsuki clan, Uchiha Sho would have already begun to sweep through the ninja world.

Therefore, he was not worried about the current situation, but instead thought about how he should "persuade" Wangliang to become his divine beast.

After all, this guy's abilities are really quite good.

It's especially suitable for infrastructure construction!

Meanwhile, as Uchiha Sō's exploration of his Eternal Eye deepened, he had a vague feeling.

With his current level of bloodline completion, he can only raise his chakra and Eternal Eye to the peak of the Kage level at most.

To surpass the Six Paths level and awaken the Rinnegan, he still lacks a crucial "key"—the Bloodline Limit.

Or rather, breaking through the bloodline limitations of the Sage of Six Paths and cultivating one's own "Otsutsuki bloodline".

Consider those who broke through to the Six Paths level in the original timeline, and this becomes easier to understand.

Besides the Otsutsuki clan of the Starry Sky, the Sage of Six Paths brothers, who inherited the bloodline of Kaguya, the progenitor of chakra, are among their descendants.

Six Paths Madara was the reincarnation of Indra. He fused with the Wood Release power of the Sage Body of Hashirama, the reincarnation of Ashura, and developed a pair of Rinnegan eyes, then became the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.

He single-handedly took on the entire Allied Shinobi Forces, suppressing Six Paths Naruto and Six Paths Sasuke. If it weren't for Black Zetsu's betrayal, he would have been virtually invincible.

Naruto and Sasuke's new Ashura and Indra reincarnations inherited the Yang and Yin powers of the Sage of Six Paths respectively, thus reaching the Six Paths level.

There's also Obito in Six Paths, who barely managed to reach the Six Paths level with the help of an incomplete Ten-Tails.

And then there's that Otsutsuki Toneri on the moon. According to speculation from netizens in the previous life, he is very likely the reincarnation of the reclusive Otsutsuki Hamura. Otherwise, how could he have broken through the Six Paths level so easily and possess such abnormal strength?

This is completely unreasonable in this world of "the grudges and feuds of the Otsutsuki family".

It's safe to say that breaking through the sixth level is extremely difficult.

Having the bloodline of the Otsutsuki clan is necessary, but this is not a problem for Uchiha Zō.

However, he didn't want to become an "incomplete" Six Paths level like Six Paths Obito!

He wanted to break through the Six Paths level with his own strength, similar to Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hamura Otsutsuki.
