In Alternate Dimension.

With his excellent Chakra sensing, the Second Hokage quickly discovered Rin and Madara fighting in the dimly lit space.

What's astonishing is that Rin, who was only a Chunin when she died, was able to fight Madara to a standstill. Although she was somewhat disheveled, she truly managed to hold off Six Paths Madara for such a long time!

At that moment, Madara turned to Rin and shouted, "Young lady! I acknowledge your power!"

"I, Madara Uchiha, acknowledge you as the strongest Water Release Ninja I have ever seen!!"

"You're way stronger than that annoying Second Hokage of Konoha! (*Ӧ)σ"

Come on, let me see if you still have the strength to dance!

After Ban finished speaking, a Black Rods shot out with a "whoosh!"

Although Rin now has an inexhaustible amount of Chakra, her combat experience is far inferior to that of Madara Uchiha. When she saw the Black Rods flying towards her, she instinctively tried to dodge, but before she could even make a move, she was suddenly struck hard and lost her balance!

And Madara's Black Rods was already right in front of her!

Just as the Black Rods was about to pierce Lin's brain, a Yellow Flash appeared behind her!

Immediately afterwards!

"Whoosh!"

Minato used the Flying Thunder God to teleport Rin to the Second and the others!!

Ban turned around, looking at the extra people in the Alternate Dimension, his voice mocking, "Oh, so many people. (ノ∇︎ )"

"This actually makes me a little excited..."

Naruto's mental space.

"Ban created a problem before he died."

"Being excessively obsessed with power, he took a portion of Hashirama's flesh and blood, gaining Hashirama's physical strength," the Sage of Six Paths continued his narration.

"In other words, Madara fused the power of his younger brother Asura with the power of his Older Brother Indra, ultimately drawing out my Chakra as his father. This is why Madara Uchiha awakened the Rinnegan."

Naruto: "I see..."

The Sage of Six Paths: "Actually, I had long foreseen that such a person would appear among Indra or one of his Reincarnate, so I left a Stone Tablet with words of advice to change his mind, but it seems it had no effect..."

Naruto raised his hand. "I have a question. Grandpa Six Paths, have you been watching the struggle between your two sons for a thousand years?"

The Sage of Six Paths nodded. "Yes, but this cannot be considered inaction. I am a long-dead man; only this small portion of my Chakra remains in the Shinobi World..."

Naruto looked down at his palm. "Chakra is truly an amazing thing, capable of preserving a person's will..."

"The Ninshu defines Chakra as the power that connects individuals, but perhaps this definition is not comprehensive enough..." the Sage of Six Paths said with a smile.

"To get back to the point, I have a general understanding of the situation outside. Madara Uchiha is just like my mother Kaguya back then... After ending the chaos of the world, my mother unified the Shinobi World single-handedly. However, she became arrogant because of her power, and people began to fear it..."

Naruto: "I understand less and less as they talk. (✘Д✘๑)"

"In short, Madara has now obtained the power of the Ten-Tails, and his strength is close to mine back then, and he even shows a tendency to develop the power of my mother, Kaguya..."

"Furthermore, Infinite Tsukuyomi isn't just a simple Genjutsu; it uses the roots of the God Tree to connect everyone, trapping those bound in Genjutsu, making it easier for the caster to enslave and use their power..."

"My mother used this technique back then too."

"If the Infinite Tsukuyomi is activated, all Chakra will merge into one, and a new Chakra Fruit will appear. This absolutely cannot be allowed to happen, or the world will be doomed."

In Alternate Dimension.

Although Six Paths Madara only has one eye, he has become an ally of the Ten-Tails, and his strength is approaching that of the Sage of Six Paths in his prime.

The Second Hokage and his group were able to exchange a couple of blows with Madara at the start of the battle, but they were quickly overwhelmed by him.

To everyone's surprise, the unassuming Lin was actually their main damage dealer!

At this moment, Kakashi, who only had one eye left, was panting heavily. He now understood that even among the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, there could be a huge difference in strength!

For example, Obito and Madara!

Although Obito was strong, he had psychological weaknesses and ultimately could not compare to Madara, who was detached from emotions and desires and whose only goal was 'peace in the Shinobi World '!

The absurd thing is that after fighting Six Paths Madara, Kakashi discovered that Obito and Madara's weakness was actually the same person! (꒪⌓꒪)

Obito's weakness – Rin (referring to his psychology).

The person who can now restrain Ban is Rin (referring to combat strength).

"Young lady, your strength is truly remarkable, but your fighting style is still lacking. Would you mind following my instructions later?" The Second Hokage, whose understanding of Water Release had been refreshed by Rin, unconsciously became more polite in his speech.

Lin was flattered and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Second!"

After that, everyone worked together in a flurry of activity.

Unfortunately, Madara neutralized them all!

Madara laughed wildly, "Don't you know what it means to overcome all techniques with sheer force! (σ≧︎▽︎≦︎)σ."

"What I possess now is absolute power! ୧⍢⃝୨"

The Second suddenly spoke up, "Attack!!"

The Fourth instantly activated Sage Mode, providing Rin with Senjutsu Chakra!

At the same time, Lin shouted, "Sage Art! Water Release! Water Dragon Bite Explosion!!"

"Whoosh--!"

The extremely wide-ranging water waves propelled Madara's body high into the air!!

Immediately afterwards, a massive Water Release appeared!

Countless water droplets converged into the sky, forming a giant azure dragon that rushed towards Ban!

Seeing that Madara Uchiha was under control, the Second began forming hand seals. "Water Release: Water Chaos Waves!"

A jet of high-pressure water shot out, and anticipation shone in the Second's eyes!

This simple combo isn't meant to seriously injure Madara; it's enough to blind him in one of his eyes!

However, just as the water was about to hit Ban's face, everyone's expression changed!

By the time they realized what was happening, they were already on a battlefield outside of Alternate Dimension!

In Naruto's mental space.

The Sage of Six Paths said solemnly, "I hope you can go and stop Madara."

"You're different from previous Asura Reincarnate; you're even a bit more naive than them... but you possess possibilities they lack. For example, you have a group of partners who are willing to trust you, especially that red-haired boy..."

"I now entrust my power to you. The future of the Shinobi World rests on your choices..."

Naruto: "With this power, will I be able to defeat the Shinki? ୧⍢⃝୨"

Sage of Six Paths: "Uncertain, but this power would give you a fighting chance against him..."

Naruto: "Is this all the power the Sage gave me...? (≖╻≖;)"

Sage of Six Paths: "Can't you even speak properly! (눈益눈)"

"Give me your hand! (*Ӧ)σ"

As he spoke, the Sage of Six Paths extended his right hand and struck Naruto's right hand...

In Sasuke's mental space, the Sage of Six Paths extended his left hand and struck Sasuke's left hand...
