How About You Become the Sage of Six Paths?

Another piece of good news is that Kaguya Otsutsuki has agreed to accept the Hyuga Clan's offerings and will remain in the Hyuga Clan.

This is the best.

He used the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly return to his home. The living room was empty; at this hour, his wife and children were naturally asleep.

Uchiha Shingen went upstairs first to check on the children.

They were all sleeping soundly.

After he closed the children's room door, he found Pakura already standing at the door.

"The school didn't say anything, did they?" he asked softly. "They didn't wake you all up, did they?"

"No, it wasn't a big deal. Sakurako is asleep. I was very careful." Pakura was still wearing her pajamas. As a senior Jonin, whenever she was home, she could immediately tell if Uchiha Shingen was late.

"However, the First Hokage and the Second Hokage went to the shrine today. Clan Chief Fugaku and the elders talked with them for a long time, but we don't know exactly what they talked about yet."

"What else could it be..." Uchiha Shingen was, of course, somewhat aware of the thoughts of his two older brothers from his previous life.

As the founders of the Will of Fire, the Senju Clan brothers always acted from the perspective of the village.

Indeed, given Namikaze Minato's insistence on retiring, having him run for Hokage would be the most suitable outcome at present.

The problem is, that's based on the premise that everything is normal.

Given that Uchiha Madara is already active, and the fact that a large Gokuki has suddenly appeared, this is hardly a normal situation.

In this situation, it's best for Namikaze Minato to continue taking on the responsibility.

"You're not saying what they're saying, that you really don't want to do office work and that's why you're not running for Hokage, are you?" Pakura laughed.

Having shared a bed with her husband for many years, she felt she understood him fairly well.

He just says he's afraid of trouble, but he's actually been trying his best to solve problems.

Otherwise, where would such high popularity come from?

Everyone's eyes are discerning.

"Of course not, that's no excuse." Uchiha Shingen put his arm around Pakura and walked towards the room. "There's a lot of trouble right now. It could easily turn into another Ninja World War. Only if Minato continues as Hokage will Leaf Village be safe."

Can you tell me?

"Of course, but there's no rush. I'll explain at the clan meeting. I've been talking until my mouth is dry at Hyuga's place all Hyuga Clan. I have to go to Matatabi and get some sleep."

Pakura nodded upon hearing this and didn't ask any further questions.

She trusted Uchiha Shingen completely, but seeing her husband's exhausted appearance, she felt sorry for him.

"You still need to remember that so many people support you; don't carry the burden alone."

"Don't worry, I won't hesitate to help when I need it."

After sending Pakura back to her bedroom, Uchiha Shingen activated the Flying Thunder God once again.

This time, he appeared at the edge of the southern part of the clan's territory.

This area was originally full of old houses, but the Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura, kindly helped to demolish them all.

After the reconstruction, the Uchiha Clan simply converted the place into Matatabi's residence and children's playground.

The landscaping is excellent.

Uchiha Shingen walked across the green belt and soon saw the Matatabi of people, who were curled up in a small mound.

It was easy to find, because the light emanating from Matatabi illuminated the surrounding area in a deep blue, like a large searchlight, completely out of place in the surrounding darkness.

It had been a long time since Uchiha Shingen had spent time alone with Matatabi.

As soon as he approached, Matatabi opened his eyes and raised his head.

He's been an Uchiha Clan for quite some time now, Matatabi's still just a big cat who can't get into a deep sleep.

"Matatabi, it's been a long time." Uchiha Shingen walked over to it and patted it.

"Shingen, I sensed some really scary Chakra today," Matatabi said sullenly, looking at Uchiha Shingen with his big eyes.

This might sound a bit far-fetched, but in Matatabi experience, Uchiha Shingen still carried that terrifying aura.

"That's right, but don't worry, I won't let her attack you," Uchiha Shingen reassured him.

If we were to pinpoint the real conflict between Kaguya Otsutsuki and Uchiha Shingen, it would probably be this very issue.

Kaguya Otsutsuki will definitely take back her Chakra.

The real issue isn't hanging from the tree, but the Tailed Beasts.

Given Matatabi's current relationship with the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Shingen cannot stand idly by and watch anyone take action against Matatabi.

Kaguya Otsutsuki was aware of this as well, and perhaps not wanting to bring this conflict to the forefront at this time, she did not take action against Matatabi.

However, this only addresses the symptoms, not the root cause; it merely postpones the outbreak of the conflict without resolving it.

In the original timeline, the solution was for Naruto and Sasuke, as bearers of the Six Paths Technique, to team up with Hagoromo Otsutsuki and deliver a powerful Six Paths Chibaku Tensei: Chibaku Tensei to Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"Okay, I believe you, Shingen." Matatabi felt much better.

Whether it can be done or not is another matter, Uchiha Shingen's attitude makes it very comfortable.

Honestly, it was almost scared away during the day—if it weren't for the Uchiha Clan children crawling on its body.

"Matatabi, can you contact the Sage of Six Paths?" Uchiha Shingen asked.

"Of course not. We haven't seen him since he died, before we met you."

"Hmm..." Uchiha Shingen ignored the grammatical errors in Matatabi's words and began to recall the details of his two encounters with Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

Our first meeting was completely haphazard.

The second time, several Tailed Beasts were present at the same time.

Perhaps it was because half of the Tailed Beasts had gathered that Hagoromo Otsutsuki noticed them.

"Let's Matatabi again, Again," he said.

As for whether Tailed Beasts need to sleep, Uchiha Shingen believed it wasn't a physiological need, but rather a form of enjoyment in life.

Humans need to sleep to rest their organs and eliminate fatigue.

But Tailed Beasts never get tired.

Therefore, there shouldn't be any issue with being grumpy when waking up.

"Same as last time? I understand." Matatabi also felt that it had been a long time since he had chatted with the other Tailed Beasts, so he had no objection to it.

Uchiha Shingen jumped onto Matatabi's head and sat down cross-legged.

The next moment, the Cursed Seal activated, and the human and cat became one.

Yes, don't get me wrong, it's about the emotional aspect.

His spirit successfully entered the Cursed Seal Space, Matatabi arrived simultaneously.

"This scenery doesn't look very pleasant now," Uchiha Shingen, looking around.

Having grown accustomed to Kaguya Otsutsuki decorations, Uchiha Shingen found his own side's cost-cutting measures rather distasteful.

So, recalling everything from Kaguya Otsutsuki's spiritual world, he changed the scenery here.

Golden fields and towering Divine Tree appeared, along with a vast blue sky.

The Matatabi seemed quite pleased with the changes around it, running around happily.

Then, Uchiha Shingen began to establish connections using the Tailed Beast Chakra he had acquired.

The second to arrive was the Eight-Tails Gyuki.

"Uchiha Shingen!" The Gyuki snorted angrily as soon as it saw Uchiha Shingen. "It's you again! You must be eyeing our Chakra again, you despicable scoundrel!"

"Gyuki, do you want to disappear?" Uchiha Shingen had long given up on rebuilding relations with Gyuki. "To be honest, if it weren't for Matatabi, I wouldn't care whether others wanted to turn you back into the Ten-Tails."

Upon hearing the name "Ten-Tails," the usually boastful Gyuki immediately shut up.

Actually, after so much time, its anger towards Uchiha Shingen had long since dissipated.

It was just indignant—they were all Tailed Beasts, so why did Taruko Matatabi such a comfortable life?

The roughnecks of Kumogakure know nothing about Tailed Beasts.

However, once the Gyuki had shut up, he noticed that the scenery around him was completely different from when he last came.

Especially the towering giant tree in the distance gave it a very familiar feeling.

But Gyuki was certain he had never encountered such a tree before.

While it was thinking, Kurama and Chomei appeared one after the other.

And the first thing the Kurama said was...

"Matatabi, how about we switch?"

There's nothing I can do; lately, Namikaze Minato always seems to be going home on time.

They exercise Tenten night, but the Tailed Beasts and Jinchūriki share a mechanism.

Jinchūriki is beaten, the Tailed Beasts will also experience the taste of being beaten.

Even if Jinchūriki does something else, they still have all the same feelings.

Although Tailed Beasts have no gender, Kurama doesn't want to experience that feeling all the time.

If absolutely necessary, it should be the one that outputs!

"No way." Matatabi shaking your head. "Absolutely not."

It never wants to experience the feeling of being sealed inside Jinchūriki's body again.

"Tsk..." Kurama very annoyed, but there was nothing it could do. It turned to look at Uchiha Shingen, "Uchiha Clan, what do you want with us?"

The quietest one was Chomei; it had fallen in love with this sky and was flying back and forth.

The four Tailed Beasts, whether quiet or noisy, instinctively distanced themselves from the Divine Tree, even though it was merely a false spiritual creation.

They instinctively resist that thing.

"It's nothing else, it's just that I want to meet the Sage of Six Paths. Isn't that how we met last time?" Uchiha Shingen looked at Kurama.

There's a joke that the Nine-Tails' Chakra is more than the other eight combined. While it's just a joke, the Nine-Tails does indeed hold a rather special position among the Tailed Beasts.

In the original timeline, even after losing his Sage of Six Paths, Naruto Uzumaki was still able to firmly hold the top spot in the Ninja World solely through his Nine-Tails Chakra Mode.

"Huh?" Kurama thought this was Tailed Beasts, "How could that old man just barge out like that because we're all together? Do you think we're some kind of weirdo..."

Kurama's eyes suddenly widened.

Behind Uchiha Shingen, a long-bearded old man suddenly appeared, floating in mid-air. That familiar yo-yo shape and imposing horns... who else could it be but the Sage of Six Paths?

Chapter 41 How about you become one of the Sage of Six Paths?

Uchiha Shingen saw Kurama's reaction.

So he turned around naturally.

"Long time no see, Sage of Six Paths."

The four Tailed Beasts also gathered around, equally filled with curiosity.

That's strange, why is that?

Why could Uchiha Shingen see the old man whenever he wanted?

Known to later generations as the Sage of Six Paths, Hagoromo Otsutsuki was one of only two Ōtsutsuki Clan born in the Hokage world, and his inner thoughts were quite complex at this time.

Although he no longer cares about his image, but...

He just felt... well, you know.

The main problem is that it's not serious at all.

Is this guy planning to call himself along every time he goes out to buy groceries from now on?

Please! He's very busy too, okay?

Hagoromo Otsutsuki: "... It seems we can't say that between us."

"It's been several months, which is quite a long time," said Uchiha Shingen. "Besides, I have so many questions for a mythical figure like you."
