Chapter Summaries

Tang Ping prepared a trap to force the Sage of Six Paths to appear, while Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi, and Sakura returned from Ama-no-Mihashira badly wounded. Kaguya began reclaiming Naruto and Sasuke’s Chakra, leaving Tang Ping’s gamble on whether the Sage would intervene about to be decided.

• Sakura noticed the missing forces from Blazing Sun Country, but Kaguya appeared before she could work out what was happening.
• Kaguya declared that she would reclaim the Chakra she had bestowed on Naruto and Sasuke, and her hair curled toward the two injured boys as Tang Ping waited to see whether the Sage of Six Paths would intervene.

The Sage of Six Paths descended to confront Kaguya, while Tang Ping prepared to ascend to godhood and waited for the right moment to act. Tang Ping then activated a vast Composite Barrier that enveloped the battlefield in his Paradise Plane, cutting off the Sage of Six Paths' escape route as a new, shocking development began.

• Kaguya ignored the barrier, while the Sage of Six Paths stayed focused on fighting her; then an even more shocking event began.

Tang Ping began ascending to godhood by absorbing Faith Energy as the Sage of Six Paths and Kaguya fought, while he relied on Kaguya and his allies to keep the Sage from escaping or disrupting his transformation.

Hinata Cang Yue fought the weakened Sage of Six Paths, using a surprise Light Sword strike to wound him before he adapted and began to press her. She activated Tenseigan Chakra Mode and drew power from the Giant Tenseigan, leaving the Sage to recognize her as a genuine threat while her true trump card remained unrevealed.

• Tenten fired all nine Star Shattering Spears and then all three Chakra Cannons into the blast zone while Naruko watched for spatial escapes.

The Sage of Six Paths, Feather Garment, survived Blazing Sun Country’s attack but was gravely wounded and launched a counterattack against its fighters. As he forced his way toward Tang Ping, Naruko and Hinata Cang Yue put themselves in danger to protect him, leaving Hinata Cang Yue facing a Truth-Seeking Orb spear.

• Blazing Sun Country’s attack reduced Feather Garment to a mangled state, and he vowed to treat its fighters as equal opponents.
• Uchiha Mei ordered the others to kill Feather Garment, but his barrage of black rods pierced Uchiha Mei, Guren, Sasuke, and the others, leaving only Sasuke alive and mobile.

• Hinata Cang Yue refused to dodge because Tang Ping stood behind her, and she raised her nine tails to take the attack.

Tang Ping completed his advancement and saved Hinata Cang Yue from a Truth-Seeking Orb spear, then faced the Sage of Six Paths while Tenten evacuated the wounded and bodies. After accusing Hagoromo of enabling the Shinobi World's wars, Tang Ping prepared to test his new power against him.

• Tang Ping caught the Truth-Seeking Orb spear before it pierced Hinata Cang Yue, then sent her to Tenten and ordered Tenten to evacuate the wounded and bodies.
• Tenten carried Hinata Cang Yue and the others toward the barrier's exit while Tang Ping and Hagoromo Otsutsuki held their positions and recovered.

• Tang Ping ignited a dark gold flame in his palm and prepared to test the power gained from his advancement against Hagoromo.

Tang Ping tested the power of his new Blazing Sun rules by creating a Golden Crow and then attacked Hagoromo Otsutsuki. Their clash began with both determined to kill the other before Tang Ping could grow stronger.

• Tang Ping summoned a dark gold Golden Crow, whose flames exceeded ten thousand degrees but remained under his control.

• Tang Ping cut through a Truth-Seeking Orb, but Hagoromo Otsutsuki shifted aside to evade the strike.

Tang Ping’s Star Shattering Spear left the Sage of Six Paths gravely wounded in a vast crater, while the priestesses maintained the barrier and watched dawn break. Tang Ping recognized the irradiated crater as a powerful cultivation ground and prepared to finish off the Sage of Six Paths from a distance.

• Shion and Yakushi Nonō reacted with shock to the destructive force of Tang Ping’s attack as dawn rose beyond the barrier.
