The Sage of Six Paths Finally Couldn't Sit Still

"This is..."

"Genjutsu space?"

On her way back to Konoha, this was the second time Hinata had been blocked.

The first time was with Black Zetsu, and this second time...

"There aren't many people in the Shinobi World who can do this... I've heard that the Sage of Six Paths, who once spread the Ninshu, still has chakra drifting in the world, walking in an eternal cycle of reincarnation!"

Standing in the illusory Genjutsu space, Hinata calmly looked around. All around her was a world of white light, seemingly boundless.

In the world of white light, a figure appeared out of thin air.

His face was slightly aged, his hair was pale, and his skin was pale, unlike that of ordinary people. He wore a white robe with six Tomoe patterns printed on both sides of the collar.

"It really is you... the Sage of Six Paths!"

Hinata asked calmly, "So you finally couldn't sit still anymore?"

"You remained very calm..."

The Sage of Sage of Six Paths' voice sounded very kind, just like the Third Hokage. He was like a gentle old man facing his mischievous junior, showing both tolerance and reproach.

"Although I don't know how you learned about these things, your actions will bring enormous disaster to this world."

The Sage of Six Paths said calmly, "Now that you know about your mother's existence, you should know how extreme her ideas are. She is too greedy; she will destroy this world."

Hinata asked curiously, "Are you trying to persuade me to stop?"

"Speaking of which..." Hinata pointed at the Sage of Six Paths with one finger, her face full of accusation, and said, "How long have you been spying on me in the dark? You weren't hiding and watching me when I was taking a bath or sleeping, were you?"

Sage of Six Paths: "..."

"I would never do that."

Since it concerned the old man's innocence, the Sage of Six Paths denied it with absolute certainty.

Two questions!

Hinata held up two fingers and said calmly, "This is no longer your era. The affairs of the younger generation should be handled by them. What is it for an old man from a thousand years ago to suddenly interfere in matters of the future? Is it nostalgia?"

"And... since you know about my affairs, you should also know my thoughts."

"I have the ability to persuade Kaguya to abandon her plan to cultivate White Zetsu."

Do you have any other questions?

The Sage of Six Paths shook his head slightly and sighed, "Although my era has passed, I have always been protecting this world..."

"Don't think you can fool me just because I'm young!"

Before the Sage of Six Paths could finish speaking, Hinata interrupted him, saying, "You're protecting the world?"

"The Shinobi World has been fighting for thousands of years, but you've never stepped in to stop it!"

"So in my opinion, what you are protecting is nothing more than the legacy of the Ninshu, the Ninshu you created. You are not protecting the world at all!"

Hinata had thought about this question more than once: since the Sage of Six Paths' chakra had been drifting in the world all along, why did he turn a blind eye to the thousand-year-old battles in the Shinobi World?

Is it because they are powerless to stop it?

The Sage of Six Paths shook his head slightly and said calmly, "The sorrow of the Ninja World ultimately stems from me, but as you said before, my era has passed."

"In this era, there will eventually be Child of Destiny will change the world."

"But..."

At this point, the Sage of Six Paths looked directly at Hinata, his pale purple Rinnegan radiating a faint air of majesty.

"Your existence has changed the trajectory of fate, and the world has changed as a result. I don't know if your decision is right or wrong... but destroying the Three Great Sage Regions and breaking the seal on the mother will definitely bring disaster to this world."

Hinata rubbed her eyes and snorted, "If the Child of Destiny you speak of were really that powerful, he wouldn't have had his fate altered because of me."

"Sage of Six Paths, are you trying to fool me like a child?"

Hinata chuckled, "Perhaps your purpose in existing is to seal away Kaguya, but in my opinion, the world created by Kaguya is far more peaceful than the world you created."

"The reason why Kaguya made a mistake was because of greed, while the reason why you made a mistake... is because of ignorance!"

"You don't understand human nature at all, yet you hope that chakra can make people understand each other... That's just wishful thinking."

Hinata glanced at the Sage of Six Paths and sneered, "It seems we can't reason with him... But battle is often the best way to distinguish right from wrong, so let's go!"

The Sage of Six Paths shook his head and said, "I am unable to fight right now... I came to see you hoping to persuade you to stop."

Hinata retorted, "Your gaze has always been fixed on the Shinobi World, while my gaze has seen the world beyond the Shinobi World. Perhaps your Dojutsu power is stronger than mine, but my heart is much bigger."

"The eyes are the windows to the soul; the size of one's heart determines the size of the world one can see."

"Since you've been paying attention to me, you should know that the Otsutsuki have arrived in the Shinobi World. They're not as easy to talk to as I am."

The Sage of Six Paths said calmly, "Even without a mother, this world can withstand them."

Hinata tilted her head, a playful look on her face. "What if I wanted to launch a counterattack against the Otsutsuki?"

Sage of Six Paths: "..."

"Sigh! You really have a big heart..."

The Sage of Six Paths sighed helplessly, remained silent for a moment, and then looked at Hinata and continued, "It seems I cannot persuade you. Since my era has passed, let the people of this era stop you!"

After saying that, the Sage of Six Paths slowly disappeared, and the illusion of the white world instantly dissipated. Hinata remained in the same posture as she moved through the forest, heading towards Konoha.

'Clatter!'

Hinata stopped in her tracks.

"I didn't expect even the Sage of Six Paths to appear. It seems he can no longer tolerate me continuing to change the course of this world."

"However, this also shows that... he has already sensed the crisis."

Whether the Sage of Six Paths will directly intervene is still unknown to Hinata, but the Sage of Six Paths clearly has no intention of fighting Hinata now.

"Since the Sage of Six Paths doesn't intend to take action, the only method he can use is Mount Myōboku..."

Hinata immediately thought of Mount Myōboku.

Perhaps the Great Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku will show Jiraiya some so-called prophecies, and Hinata's image in these prophecies will certainly not be righteous.

In this way, the Sage of Six Paths could influence Hinata through Jiraiya and Naruto.

Moreover, since it concerns Hinata, Jiraiya would definitely not hide it from Tsunade.

"Snort!"

She shook her head. If everything went as Hinata predicted, then things would indeed be more troublesome, but Hinata was not afraid.

"I'm not the same person I used to be!"

He touched his eyes.

With the Dojutsu power of the Tenseigan, there is no force in the Shinobi World capable of killing Hinata.

Moreover, there's Urashiki's chakra waiting for Hinata to retrieve it in this vast space.
