Sensing the fighting spirit emanating from Tōka, Six Paths slowly raised one hand, his wrinkled palm clenching loosely, and a jet-black Truth-Seeking Orb floated into the air beneath him.

The ink-black ink emerged from Six Paths palms, gradually elongating to form a slender black tin staff, with the top of the staff being a crescent shape and a circle respectively.

It represents the moon and the sun, and also the Yin-Yang Power.

"Truth-Seeking Orb? Mine is no less powerful than yours!" Tōka forcibly suppressed the Tomoe surging wildly in his eyes, and pure black Prayer Beads floated around him.

Also formed by the fusion of Yin-Yang and Five Elements power, the prayer Prayer Beads are no less powerful than Truth-Seeking Orb Balls in terms of form transformation, and are a unique ability of the Tenseigan!

Six Paths's face showed an expression of "I knew it," and his Ice Blue Tenseigan forcibly fused with the enormous Sharingan Dojutsu.

Not only does it possess the power of the Tenseigan, but it also has the Sharingan's motion capture, Genjutsu enhancement, and even more powerful new techniques.

"All-Killing Ash Bones, All Worlds Seal!"

The four Shadow Clones, which had already dispersed, stood at four points on the edge of the illusory realm, their hands clasped together, activating all the chakra within their bodies.

Buzz!!

Chakra surged forth like a tidal wave, causing the entire space to tremble.

Gaa gaa gaa...

Suddenly, countless gray Bone Spur burst forth, from beneath our feet, from above our heads, and from all directions!

"Mother's All-Killing Ash Bones?" The Six Paths had seen this move countless times; he knew all of Kaguya's abilities perfectly.

All-Killing Ash Bones.

This technique alters the composition of the skeleton, transforming it into a powerful weapon, projecting sharp bones from the palm. Those struck by these bones gradually disintegrate.

Even with the healing techniques of Yang Release, it's all in vain; even the bodies of the dead resurrected by Impure World Reincarnation Resurrection will decay!

"Fly through time and space and scatter, decay along with the bones!" Tōka whispered, and with a movement of his hands, tens of millions of Bone Spur swept through the air.

A strong wind swept past, like a drizzle, shooting towards the Six Paths in the center from all directions.

From the very beginning, Tōka's offensive was as fierce as a storm.

Six Paths, however, was like a deep pool, its depths unknown. His calm face remained undisturbed as he slowly waved the immortal staff in his hand.

Several black Truth-Seeking Orb suspended beneath him were lifted into the air by the Immortal's Staff, their shapes shifting like ink spreading out.

Then a large black sphere formed, enveloping Six Paths entirely within it.

Click click click!!

Countless Bone Spur landed on the surface of the large sphere that the Truth-Seeking Orb had opened.

"Your reaction wasn't slow." Tōka raised an eyebrow, showing no surprise whatsoever; the Jutsu Formula was blocked was expected.

However, this is just the beginning!

Tōka flicked his fingertips, changing his hand seals, and chakra overflowed from them.

Buzz!

The Ash Bones supporting the black sphere exuded an aura of deathly stillness, icy and almost nonexistent, like an endless Black Hole filled with unknown dangers.

"The two-stage morphological changes of the All-Killing Ash Bones?"

A look of astonishment flashed in the eyes of the Six Paths hidden within the Truth-Seeking Orb. They had never seen anyone use their mother's All-Killing Ash Bones so skillfully.

Changing the form is not difficult, but changing the form of the Kekkei Mōra is already very difficult.

It requires extremely strong control over chakra, and also requires a large amount of chakra to support it.

Moreover, the danger of the second-stage transformation and the All-Killing Ash Bones is self-evident; the subsequent transformation is far from simple...

Six Paths slowly raised his left hand, his index and middle fingers held together in front of him, and a mysterious aura that made one's heart tremble surge out.

It was none other than the Yang Release commonly used by the Six Paths!

"All-Killing Ash Bones, Snowflakes Fall Everywhere!" Tōka shouted in a deep voice, and the sharp Bone Spur that filled the entire space exploded instantly.

The shattered bone fragments flew through the air like snowflakes.

The second stage of the Jutsu Formula, derived from the All Worlds Seal, appears as beautiful snowflakes but is actually fraught with danger, just as an alluring poppy contains deadly poison.

"The Truth-Seeking Orb can't help you!"

The red barrier opened, instantly eroding the illusory realm where the Six Paths resided, and the black world was suddenly shrouded in crimson.

Above and below, mysterious and beautiful red Vortex swirled slowly.

Tōka suddenly stretched out his palm, pointing it at the location of Six Paths.

The Red Realm, the world ruled by Tōka, is one of the abilities of the Eternal Tenseigan.

Although the Crimson Red Realm couldn't last long because the Sharingan's Dojutsu hadn't fully fused, those brief ten-odd seconds were enough for Tōka to do a lot of things.

For example...

"Come out!" Tōka's slender fingers tightened, his thoughts revolving around the laws governing the Red Realm!

The Six Paths figures hidden within the black sphere formed by the changing shapes of the Truth-Seeking Orb paused, followed by a sudden and powerful burst of mysterious energy.

Unlike the power of space, it is the law of the Red Realm.

The large black sphere enveloping the Six Paths suddenly vanished and appeared directly in front of Tōka's palm.

A faint glint of Ice Blue flame One Flash in his eyes, and the large black sphere crumbled and disintegrated like melting ice and snow, breaking down into fist-sized Truth-Seeking Orb.

Having lost the protection of the Truth-Seeking Orb, the Sage of Six Paths was surrounded by countless rice-grain-sized fragments of Ash Bones...

"This time they should be completely gone." Tōka narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp, staring intently at Six Paths.

They did not let their guard down just because the Six Paths were in dire straits.

It's getting closer!

Closer!

Countless bone fragments hurtled towards Six Paths, coming within a finger's width of his cheek!

Right now!

The Six Paths hands that were clenched slowly opened, revealing a mysterious and profound power, the power of Yang Release, like a passage connecting to the Pure Land.

The Pure Land is calling!

One after another, illusory figures gradually emerged around Six Paths, seemingly slowly, but in reality, they solidified very quickly, revealing clear features.

"Dust Release: Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"

Buzz!!

Two beams of white light suddenly appeared, illuminating the crimson world. Two figures, one tall and one short, flew into the sky one after the other, their palms pressing down in mid-air.

The world suddenly fell silent. The Red Realm was engulfed by white light, the blinding radiance making it impossible to open one's eyes.

After a few breaths, the white light dissipated, and a large portion of the space that had been filled with tens of millions of fragments of Ash Bones was cleared out.

A dozen or so figures appeared one after another behind Six Paths.

"Past Kage?" Tōka stared expressionlessly at the two people floating high in the sky. Only those two could use the Kekkei Tōta Dust Release.

The Second Tsuchikage Mu, and the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki!

Such a large lineup?

Tōka's lips curled into a disdainful sneer. He might have some reservations about the Six Paths, but these outdated, utterly dead guys...

"These people..." Tōka's gaze swept lightly over the group of Kage-level, and he chuckled softly, "You think they'll be of any use?"

"Maybe it will work, maybe it won't. How will we know if we don't try?" Six Paths smiled mysteriously, seemingly oblivious to the sarcasm in Tōka's words.

Upon hearing this, Tōka frowned, his heart pounding with apprehension.

Hagoromo and Hamura joined forces to seal Kaguya, their strength beyond question, earning them the title of Sage of Six Paths and founder of Ninshu...

Tōka dared not underestimate Six Paths, but he really couldn't think of any other power that could defeat him.

The Six Paths are dead; what you see before you is merely the chakra left behind by the Six Paths.

As for the group of spirits nearby, Tōka was not afraid at all.

The inky Tomoe darted wildly in Tōka's eyes, causing the Red Realm to become extremely unstable, with space shaking as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

Tōka covered her stinging eyes with her hands, and had no choice but to cancel the Jutsu Formula.

As the Ice Blue in his eyes faded, the swirling Tomoe also disappeared into his dark pupils.

Freed from the constraints of the Red Realm's laws, the immense aura of the Kage-level from previous generations gradually began to emerge.

Even without a body, even if it's just a soul...

A powerful person's every glance and every move exudes a chilling aura.

The most effective way to deal with a soul is through sealing techniques.

Tōka's eyes One Flash slightly, the glint of wisdom vanishing in an instant, his dark eyes returning to their usual calm, while his hands, hidden beneath his robe, formed a series of Hand Seals.

"Everyone, let's make our move." Six Paths Dao was incredibly shrewd; he saw through Tōka's little trick at a glance.

Upon hearing the sound, the numerous Kage-level immediately dispersed, forming a large circle around the Battlefield where Six Paths and Tōka were facing off.

Tōka was facing the Six Paths, yet his perspective allowed him to clearly see everyone's movements.

What exactly are these guys trying to do? Six Paths used the Pure Land Summoning to summon the Past Kage in order to bring back the four members of Team 7 from the Alternate Dimension.

And at this very moment...

"You seem confident? You think you've got me figured out?" Tōka couldn't guess what Six Paths was planning, so she decided to test him with words.

Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei, this is the technique used to seal Otsutsuki Kaguya.

Tōka possesses the Eternal Tenseigan and the Secret Technique Red Realm Self-Determined Laws, although its opening is currently extremely unstable due to the incomplete fusion of his Dojutsu.

However, once a period of time has passed and the Sharingan's Dojutsu has fully merged, the true Eternal Tenseigan becomes stable, and techniques like Chibaku Tensei become like an unlocked cage.

Tōka could easily leave if she wanted to.

Therefore, this move was completely useless against Tōka.

However, seeing Six Paths's calm expression, Tōka's resolve inevitably wavered.

Upon hearing this, Six Paths smiled faintly, seemingly just a normal smile, perhaps because of Tōka's flickering gaze.

Even if I were alive, I might not be able to defeat you.

"Oh? And then?" Tōka raised an eyebrow. Six Paths's smile was very calm, and it was this calmness that he found irritating.

A strange rage burned in his chest, and he wanted to slap Six Paths Dao's hateful old face.

Snap!

Suddenly, the sound of hands clasped together rang out.

Tōka subconsciously turned her head to look...

Snap snap snap...

One by one, everyone clasped their hands together, slowly closed their eyes, and their spirits emitted a crystalline light, as if everyone would disappear in the next moment.

A ball of Pure White light shone in everyone's palms.

Simple and unadorned, not flashy or dazzling.

Feeling completely harmless...

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Tōka frowned and stared at Six Paths, then shouted in a deep voice.

This tranquility and peace made him feel a sense of crisis deep down.

The calm before the storm; the Pure White aura in the palms of these people seemed to be drawing upon some powerful Jutsu Formula!

"Actually, there's nothing special about it. As I said before, even if you were alive, I might not be able to defeat you, let alone just a wisp of chakra."

Six Paths said in a calm tone.

"Furthermore, your Dojutsu seems to possess very special abilities; Yang Release shouldn't be able to seal you."

At this point, Tōka's expression darkened slightly, and he was secretly shocked. As expected of the Sage of Six Paths, his insight was extremely sharp!

In a mere few dozen seconds, he saw through the fact that the Red Realm could not be bound by the Chibaku Tensei.

If that's the case, why...

How can the Six Paths remain so indifferent?

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Tōka snapped impatiently. He should have been calmer in a situation like this, but he just couldn't.

An inexplicable unease, an inexplicable restlessness, an inexplicable anger!

I thought I possessed the Eternal Tenseigan...

"They are all dead, some you know, some you don't, some died a long time ago, some passed away in recent years."

"But they all have one thing in common..."

At this point, Six Paths paused, raising his eyes to look at Tōka.

They look so alike, almost like a carbon copy of their mother. Why didn't he notice it back then?

A hint of annoyance flashed in Six Paths's eyes.

"What do we have in common?" Tōka's gaze sharpened slightly as she looked directly into Six Paths's eyes.

They all come from the Pure Land.

Bite!!

As Six Paths finished speaking, a series of melodious tinkling sounds rang out, and the Pure White halo surrounding everyone's hands slowly floated away into the air.

At the same time, the figures of the Kage-level who had stood around him became even brighter.

To Tōka's astonishment, the shadows transformed into tiny specks of starlight, merging into the Pure White sphere of light.

It was filled with a sense of tranquility and peace.

Just one glance at it can relax both body and mind.

Gentle as water, warm as a breeze.

Drifting with the wind, or falling into the flowing water, swaying away into the distance, everything returns to nature.

Just as Tōka was immersed in this tranquility, Six Paths Dao, who was a few steps away, suddenly approached, his aged voice almost touching her.

"I cannot defeat you, nor can I seal you away, but I can take away your power."

"What do you mean?" Tōka was not afraid of Six Paths's approach at all. When he was on the verge of death, the Six Harmonies Divine Technique would activate on its own.

Unfortunately, Six Paths had no intention of taking Tōka's life, nor did he even plan to attack Tōka.

Six Paths seemingly slowly but actually extremely quickly extended a hand, placing his withered palm on Tōka's shoulder, and an indescribable power surged forth.

In an instant... he suppressed Tōka!!

"What? You can't move?!" Tōka kept glancing sideways at the hand on her shoulder, a look of shock and anger flashing in her eyes.

This binding force...

The Ice Blue flames flickered again. Tōka hated the feeling of being controlled, so he decided to forcefully open the Red Realm and break it with his own laws.

Right now!!

"Pure Land Reversal!" Six Paths's eyes narrowed, and a Pure White halo suddenly lit up in the palm of his hand that was pressing on Tōka's shoulder.

Gentle and warm.

A peaceful atmosphere completely enveloped Tōka.

The Jutsu Formula was fully activated, and a Pure White halo merged into Tōka's eyes...

As if something was about to be taken away, a feeling inexplicably arose in Tōka's heart.

He was unwilling to accept it, but he was powerless to stop it.

Even... he can't move a single finger!

"When they return to the Pure Land, they will take with them the power residing in your eyes." The voice of the Six Paths gradually faded into the distance, and his figure gradually became blurred.

Click!!

With a crisp cracking sound, the illusory realm collapsed.

Tōka's temples bulged with veins, and he knelt down with a thud, feeling a smooth, slightly prickly sensation on his fingertips.

Fine sand?

Waaaaah~~

The wind howled, and the Wind and Sand blowing in my face stung my cheeks.

"The desert of the Land of Wind?" Tōka slowly opened his eyes, his calm black eyes seemingly unchanged.

But only Tōka knew.

These Eternal Tenseigan possess immense Dojutsu, yet they are unable to use any Dojutsu!

"You're ruthless, Six Paths!"
