Naruto: Sasuke Uchiha Returns from Soul Society

.........

In the present world, Hashirama wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Madara beside him. "This won't do. We can't even get close to him."

"Hmph, I know that without you telling me!"

Ban snorted coldly, his eyes blazing with fury.

Had Madara Uchiha ever suffered such humiliation in his entire life? To be toyed with like a child by a junior.

"That's the only option we can use."

Hashirama took a deep breath, his tone resolute, "The technique the Sage of Six Paths bestowed upon us."

Ban's body stiffened slightly.

Six Paths - Earth Explosion Star.

That was the ultimate sealing technique the Sage of Six Paths used to seal Kaguya, and it was also their last trump card for this trip.

However, this technique has a fatal flaw.

"That old man said that this technique can only be activated through direct contact between the forces of Yin and Yang."

Ban gritted his teeth, staring intently at the figure hovering in mid-air in the distance. "But we can't even get close to him, how can we make contact?!"

"There's no other way!" Hashirama shouted. "Even if we can't make contact, we can trap him inside, and even if his power is greatly reduced, there's nothing we can do!"

Madara was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head, his chakra exploding around him.

"Alright, let's go then, Hashirama!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them dispersed to Sasuke's left and right sides respectively.

At that moment, space began to distort, and a phantom image of a god exuding an ancient aura slowly emerged in the void beside the two.

The statue has its hands clasped together, as if performing some ancient ritual.

"Six Paths - Earth Explosion Star!"

They each raised a palm, their Yin and Yang energies echoing each other across a distance of hundreds of meters.

The earth crumbled amidst mournful cries.

The ground within a radius of tens of kilometers shattered instantly, and countless huge rocks shot into the sky.

They spun and converged rapidly in the air, frantically squeezing towards the figure suspended in mid-air.

Sasuke looked at the overwhelming torrent of rocks without a trace of panic in his eyes.

"A futile struggle."

He spoke softly, the black flames behind him slowly rotating, trying to keep the rocks out.

But this time, things seem a little different.

The power of the Sage of Six Paths was wrapped around those rocks.

With the support of this power, Indra's power was unable to completely eliminate it for a time.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Countless boulders crashed heavily against the barrier formed by Indra. Although the barrier did not break, it pushed Sasuke's figure little by little towards the center.

More and more rocks converged, layer upon layer.

In the blink of an eye, a giant stone sphere with a diameter of nearly 100 kilometers was formed!

It floated silently in the sky, blocking out the moonlight and casting a huge shadow, like a second moon.

Uchiha Sasuke was suppressed and sealed within it.

"Huh...huh..."

Hashirama knelt on the ground, and the six rays of light emanating from his body dimmed slightly.

He looked up at the huge black sphere in the sky, his eyes filled with hope.

"Was it successful?"

"..."

Ban also stared intently at the stone sphere, his expression solemn.

"According to the old man Rokudo, once sealed by this technique, even Kaguya cannot escape."

Ban's voice was a little hoarse, as if he was trying to convince himself, "This should... have succeeded, right?"

But he wasn't sure.

After all, this technique was forcibly activated without any contact with Sasuke, so no one knows how much of its sealing power remains.

Ban raised his head and looked up at the sky higher above.

Moreover, that eerie blood moon still hung high in the sky, showing no sign of dissipating.

This shows that Sasuke's power was not eliminated by the seal.

"Did Sasuke lose?"

In the distance, Kabuto Yakushi stared at the stone sphere floating in the sky, his voice filled with disbelief, "That level of sealing technique..."

"Do not."

Yoruichi, standing to the side, shook her head, her tone resolute.

"This technique won't work on him."

As soon as she finished speaking, a violent energy fluctuation spread out from the giant sphere.

"what?!"

Madara and Hashirama simultaneously looked up abruptly, their eyes filled with horror.

Even from such a distance, a powerful gust of "consciousness" still swept through them, making their scalps tingle and their backs feel like they were being pricked by thorns.

Immediately afterwards, the huge stone sphere formed from the "six paths of Yin and Yang power" began to tremble violently.

The next moment, the stone crumbled and shattered into dust, falling like rain.

A series of violent black and white lightning bolts tore the thick rock layers apart.

Immediately afterwards, two extremely dazzling blade lights pierced through the inside of the stone sphere, piercing through heaven and earth!

A jet-black flame, burning with the scent of death.

A pale blue streak, like lightning, was wrapped in raging thunder.

"That's his knife?!" Madara's pupils suddenly contracted.

After piercing the stone sphere, the two blades of light did not dissipate; instead, they continued to extend downwards with even greater speed!

In the blink of an eye, it traversed a distance of a thousand meters and slashed down at Madara and Hashirama on the ground! It was so fast that even the two who possessed the power of the Six Paths didn't have time to react.

Madara and Hashirama froze, looking down in disbelief.

Two enormous blades of light, one black and one blue, pierced through their bodies, pinning them to the ground.

The sky was completely stained black by the overflowing spiritual pressure at that moment.

The remaining constraints on the sphere vanished, and amidst the flying debris, a figure slowly emerged.

The right side of his cheek was covered with a pale, bone-like substance that extended down his right arm, covering the entire arm.

The Rinnegan with tomoe, sunken deep within the bone mask's eye socket, emitted a chilling golden light.

The base color of his left Rinnegan had turned pure black, and his divine robe fluttered in the wind, revealing streaks of silver-white lightning.

This is the form after the dual swords' Bankai, Hollowfication, Sage Mode, and the power of the Six Paths are completely fused together!

Sasuke hovered silently in mid-air, his silver hair flying and his divine robes fluttering.

"A very powerful technique, but it's a pity."

Sasuke stared coldly at Hashirama and Madara, "But you are not the Sage of Six Paths, and I am not Kaguya."

Chapter 256 Kaguya's Revival (Happy New Year, Meow!)

Deep in the Pure Land.

The image reflected in the water mirror froze at the moment Sasuke fell.

The Sage of Six Paths' fingers trembled slightly as he held the staff, exhaling a long breath of turbid air, his face instantly aging considerably.

"Did it... fail again?"

He placed all his hopes on the reincarnations of Indra and Asura, even going so far as to violate his principles by bestowing upon them the power of Yin and Yang.

However, in the end, they were completely defeated by Uchiha Sasuke in an almost overwhelming manner.

The Sage of Six Paths closed his eyes, and the water mirror shattered, turning into specks of light.

"The torrent of fate is beyond my control."

..........

In the present world, at the heart of the battlefield.

Madara Uchiha lay on the ground, staring intently at Sasuke who walked up to him, his eyes twitching wildly.

He was not reconciled.

He received a gift from the Sage of Six Paths, possessing Yin power he had never had before, and even joined forces with Hashirama...

Why did we still lose?!

"Little brat..."

Madara gritted his teeth, trying to mobilize the chakra within his body, but the black blade of light embedded in his body restricted all the power he had gathered.

"Stop struggling."

Sasuke walked between the two, stretched out his left and right hands at the same time, spread his five fingers, and pressed down on Madara and Hashirama's heads respectively.

The two of them shuddered.

"Spirits of the old era, hand over the power that does not belong to you."
