"Thank you all so much for your help this time!" The Sage of Six Paths thanked everyone with great formality.
Though, at that moment, the only ones nearby who remained conscious were Uchiha Shunichi and his two companions, the tailed beasts, and the First Kage whose souls the Sage of Six Paths had summoned from the Pure Land.
"Old man, it's time to release the Infinite Tsukuyomi," Uchiha Shunichi said to the Sage of Six Paths, looking up at their surroundings.
Uchiha Shunichi had obtained an enormous amount of chakra from Kaguya. Rather than merging directly into his body, that chakra would take some time to absorb.
More importantly, after fighting for so long, Uchiha Shunichi really wanted to rest for a while...
"Yes, this battle is over. It's time to let..." the Sage of Six Paths began.
"Wait, Grandpa Sage..." Naruto suddenly interrupted, then ran straight over to the Fourth Hokage.
Although he had already met Minato Namikaze, Naruto was still reluctant to part with him this time.
After they spent a long time saying their goodbyes, Minato Namikaze's soul departed for the Pure Land along with the other Kage summoned by the Sage of Six Paths.
"Now, Sasuke, who possesses the Rinnegan, and Naruto, who possesses all nine tailed beasts, need only form hand seals together to release the Infinite Tsukuyomi," the Sage of Six Paths said. After saying goodbye to the tailed beasts, he too returned to the Pure Land.
Uchiha Shunichi watched quietly without saying anything more. Although he was very curious about the Pure Land, he had no desire to die or visit that so-called Pure Land.
If the day ever came when his lifespan was nearing its end, he would rather enter the turbulent flow of time than go to that so-called Pure Land.
