The Tragic Sage of Six Paths

Having just awakened from his slumber, the Sage of Six Paths was completely bewildered. Why did the reincarnations of his two children turn on him the moment they heard his name? Could it be that with the passage of time, his reputation as the Sage of Six Paths had fallen to the point where everyone in the Shinobi World hated him?

"Wait! Why are you all..."

At first, the Sage of Six Paths didn't take the sudden attack of the two men seriously. Although he only had his soul power left, it was still not something that Naruto and Sasuke and Sasuke, who hadn't yet reached the Six Paths level, could harm. However, when Naruto's Rasengan and Sasuke's Chidori pierced through his body, the sudden burst of latent power gradually eroded his soul.

"This is... power from another world... So, Mother wasn't lying after all..."

Seeing the old man who claimed to be the Sage of Six Paths annihilated in a single blow, Naruto was almost speechless, muttering to himself, "He's dead? Was this guy really the Six Paths Great Demon King? And what was that power that just surged within us...?"

"The Six Paths Demon King, who has destroyed one era after another, is not so easy to deal with. What appeared just now and pulled us into the consciousness space should only be a fragment of his soul consciousness. But that's fine too. The hatred of my Uchiha Clan will eventually be ended by my own hands!" Sasuke with a cold face, his figure gradually dissipating as he withdrew from the collapsing consciousness space.

Roy, who was still tormenting Momoshiki, paused, a slight smile playing on his lips, "The last troublemaker has been eliminated. Now, it should be time for the real show to begin."

Sure enough, the next moment a vast and powerful aura rose from the distance. Momoshiki, who had once again struggled to get up from the ruins, looked into the distance with surprise and delight. "This is... the aura of the God Tree? As long as I can obtain this power, I will definitely be able to turn the tide and wash away today's shame!"

Momoshiki gritted his teeth and withstood Roy's attack, dragging his battered body away into the distance. In an instant, his eyes widened as he realized that the aura was approaching their battlefield at an extremely fast speed.

"This is truly a stroke of luck! It seems I am destined to become the ruler of this world!" Momoshiki flew over with great joy, but his joy quickly froze on his face, because the dazzling stream of light actually grazed past his body and eventually fell into the body of Uchiha Madara, whom he had almost forgotten.

"My power? My power!" Momoshiki Otsutsuki Uchiha Madara as if he were insane, attempting to strip the power of the God Tree from Uchiha Madara's body. "You despicable thief, you descendant of sinners, give me back my power!"

"Your power?" Uchiha Madara, who was feeling the earth-shattering changes within his body, glanced at Momoshiki with disdain and slammed him into the ground as easily as swatting a fly. "Trash, remember this, this is my power!"

"Madara, what is this...?" Hashirama couldn't believe it. Momoshiki Otsutsuki, who could easily defeat them with just one transformation, was actually defeated by Madara in his second transformation due to some inexplicable change in Madara. It could even be said that he was completely defeated in every way.

"Hashirama, do you see that? What Dream God Sect Pope, what Otsutsuki Descendant? They are nothing in front of me now! I will soon become the savior of this world and bring true happiness and peace to everyone!" Madara roared excitedly.

"What? You haven't given up on your unrealistic ideas yet?" Hashirama clenched his fists, trying his best to dissuade him.

"What does 'unrealistic' mean? Only things that are impossible to achieve are unrealistic, but for me, who has become a savior..."

Look back, and dig!

"No, Madara, you are not a savior, and this is far from over!" A dark figure appeared behind Uchiha Madara, with an arm emerging from Uchiha Madara's chest.

Uchiha Madara lowered his head, looking at the black arm emerging from his chest. He finally snapped out of his madness and asked incredulously, "Black Zetsu, what are you saying? I was the one who created you... You are my will!"

"No, you're wrong about that too!" A wicked smile appeared on Black Zetsu's eerie face. "My will is... Princess Kaguya!"

"What exactly happened? Uchiha Madara first obtained unparalleled power, and then he was killed by that Black Zetsu?" So many things happened in that instant that everyone felt their brains couldn't keep up.

"Madara!" Hashirama roared and charged forward, but it was as if he had crashed into an invisible barrier and was violently thrown back.

"It's no use. I've been planning this for over a thousand years. You should just wait patiently for the arrival of my mother, the true master of this world— Kaguya Otsutsuki!"

"What did he say, Kaguya Otsutsuki?"

"It's the mother of the Six Paths Great Demon King that Lord Roy mentioned! Wait, could this disgusting black shadow be the Six Paths Great Demon King?"

"Although we don't know what happened, the situation seems quite dire. We must lend Lord Roy the power of dreams as soon as possible!"

The earth cracked and collapsed, rivers flowed backward and surged backward, the sky darkened and shattered, and the Chakra that had been scattered throughout the world was converging in a certain direction.

The bodies of the group were uncontrollably propelled into the air, their Chakra power constantly receding from them, seemingly drawing away their life force and souls along with them.

Uchiha Madara's body continued to expand. Already possessing a large amount of Chakra, Uchiha Madara seemed to be on the verge of exploding. The human body simply could not contain the power of almost an entire world.

"Not good, your dreams are not strong enough to restrain your own power. I will Dream-Enter realm first!" Roy said with a "solemn" expression.

"Lord Roy, what are you going to do?" Naruto shouted.

"There's no time to worry about that now. I've heard the world's cries and wails, and we absolutely cannot let it continue like this!" Before anyone could argue, Roy waved his hand and sent the entire Shinobi Alliance into the Dream Domain.

The tranquil and peaceful Dream Domain space was suddenly filled with a large crowd.

"Damn it, what are we supposed to do? Are we really just supposed to watch Lord Roy sacrifice himself for us?!" Naruto said unwillingly.

"Of course not, even ordinary people have their own value."

Hearing a familiar voice beside him, Naruto's eyes widened as he asked, "Orochimaru, what are you doing here?"

"Is this strange? The leader would not have simply moved you into the space. In fact, people from all over the world have gathered here."

"Wow! Lord Roy indeed incredibly powerful! He was able to pull everyone into the Dream Dimension in an instant!" Ino exclaimed, her eyes sparkling.

"Enough of that, Orochimaru, tell us quickly, what can we do to help Lord Roy?" Tsunade asked solemnly.

"It's very simple. Chakra is the source of Kaguya Otsutsuki's power. As long as you can refine Chakra into a higher level of dream, you can continuously reduce Kaguya Otsutsuki's power and fill it into the leader's body."

Everyone was a little confused, but Naruto was the first to understand. "You mean, like practicing Sage Mode, you add Natural Energy when refining Chakra?"

"That's right, but here we're converting Natural Energy into Dream Energy. Most of you have probably already come into contact with 'Dream Technique,' and in this Dream Domain where Dream Energy is extremely abundant, it's not difficult to refine dream Chakra."

"I understand. Although we don't have Lord Roy's strength, we will still protect this world in our own way!"
