Naruto Uzumaki plucked his ears and looked like he didn't take it to heart at all. He even casually carried Truth-Seeking Orb Staff on his shoulders, as if they were not engaging in a life-and-death showdown, but chatting in the sun at the entrance of the village.
He tilted his head, with an expression of pure curiosity on his face, and asked a question loudly and to himself:
"Hey, Mr. Six Paths, by the way..."
Naruto lengthened his tone, and Six-Tomoe Rinnegan blinked:
"What kind of girl do you like?"
This question, asked in the midst of a fierce battle, seemed extremely abrupt and inappropriate, even a little ridiculous.
But Naruto asked the question very naturally, as if he really just wanted to know about this thousand-year-old man's views on mate selection.
Sage of Six Paths was startled by this sudden question, and the Amenonuhoko in his hand paused slightly.
He frowned, not understanding what this Kid was trying to do.
But out of some subconscious reaction, or because Naruto's description of "gentle, kind and caring" really touched a soft Corner in his heart, his thoughts drifted uncontrollably to the distant past...
He thought of his wife who gave him warmth and support during the war years, gave birth to Asura and Indra with him, and accompanied him through the first difficult years of founding Ninshu.
She was a truly gentle, kind, and tenacious woman who valued her family and her husband as everything. She was one of the few harbors in his long life that truly brought peace and happiness.
Although his wife has long passed away in the long river of history, the memories and emotions are still treasured in my heart.
So, in Naruto's slightly expectant eyes, Sage of Six Paths nodded slightly subconsciously, and even unconsciously revealed an extremely thin, but real, nostalgic and gentle smile on his face, and his voice was not as cold as before:
"Hmm... more or less."
He paused, seemed to be considering his words, and finally admitted frankly:
"I do prefer mature and gentle women."
The words coming out of his mouth, coupled with the softening of his eyes for a moment, made people temporarily forget about his all-powerful power and ancient majesty, and only saw an ordinary old man reminiscing about the beautiful past.
However, this rare warmth and honesty has become the best ammunition for launching the next round of "verbal attacks" here at Naruto Uzumaki!
I saw the curiosity on Naruto's face instantly turned into a sudden realization, followed by unabashed criticism and ridicule. He slapped his thigh and said loudly with an "I understand" tone:
"Oh~~~That's it!"
He lengthened the tone of "oh", his eyes became mischievous, he moved closer and lowered his voice, but made sure that Sage of Six Paths could hear every word clearly:
"It's because... I have lacked maternal love since I was a child, so... when I grow up, I especially want to make up for it from other women, right?"
"Whatever is missing, make up for it! I understand, I understand!"
These words were like a Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder, hitting Sage of Six Paths's heart that had just felt a hint of warmth with incomparable precision!
Lack of maternal love?
Make up for it?
What is missing and what is needed to make up for it?
The extremely rare smile on Sage of Six Paths's face as he recalled his wife froze for an instant, then faded away like the tide and disappeared without a trace.
You Kid are dumbfounded!
Instead, it was as green and gloomy as the precursor of a volcanic eruption!
How could he not understand that the golden retriever Brat opposite him had no good intentions from the very beginning when he asked that question.
He wasn't really curious at all, but just dug a hole and waited for him to jump in.
First, he used the description of "gentle and caring" to evoke his memories and recognition of his wife, and then immediately used the most vicious and heart-wrenching words to deliver a precise mental attack.
This was like a severe stomp on his most cherished emotional memory, and he even spat on it!
"You--!!!"
Sage of Six Paths felt a surge of hot blood rushing to the top of his head, and the calm shell created by thousands of years of cultivation was instantly shattered.
He was so angry that he was speechless for a moment, and the hand holding Amenonuhoko was trembling slightly, not out of fear, but out of extreme anger.
"I see you have never been severely beaten!"
Sage of Six Paths squeezed out these words through his teeth, his voice becoming hoarse and deformed due to anger.
He no longer cared about immortality or tactics, there was only one thought in his mind.
Use the most direct and violent method to teach this unabashed Brat a lesson!
Sage of Six Paths's body swayed and disappeared in place as if teleporting. The next moment, he appeared next to Naruto.
He did not use Amenonuhoko, nor did Hand Seals use Sage Art. Instead, he directly kicked Naruto's waist and abdomen with a powerful and heavy sideways kick that entangled Purple Eyes Chakra.
This kick is simple and crude, but it contains the unreserved terrifying power of Sage of Six Paths in his rage!
However, Naruto seemed to have expected it.
Facing this flying kick that was as fast as lightning and as heavy as a mountain, Naruto's eyes flashed with golden light, and surging Blue Eyes steam suddenly burst out from his body!
"Seventh Gate·Gate of Wonder, open!"
Eight Gates Formation turns on instantly.
Powerful vitality and Chakra surge through the body, bringing explosive increases in speed and strength.
"Bang--"
Naruto crossed his arms and blocked Sage of Six Paths's angry blow.
The huge force caused his feet to plow two deep grooves on the ground, and he slid back for more than ten meters before stopping. His arms were sore and numb, but his face showed an even worse smile.
He shook his numb arm and looked at Sage of Six Paths, whose breath was slightly undulating after being blocked by a full-strength kick. He raised his eyebrows, his face full of unabashed teasing and provocation, and deliberately asked in a light tone:
"Yo?"
"Isn't this possible?"
"Old man..."
He paused, his smile as bright as the sun at noon, but he uttered three words that made Sage of Six Paths's blood pressure soar again:
"Are you in a hurry?"
"I#￥%...&*!!!"
Faced with Sage of Six Paths's dirty words, Naruto didn't hesitate to talk back.
"What did Jiligulu say? I'm *your mother!"
Why are you, an old man, of such low quality?"
Sage of Six Paths felt like there were ten thousand Tailed Beast roaring and trampling in his heart.
He looked at Naruto's triumphant face, felt the dull pain on his forehead from the headbutt just now, and then thought of those heart-wrenching remarks...
Buzz--!
Sage of Six Paths's originally celestial and majestic face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, from his forehead to his neck, and there was even faint steam coming out of his head.
His eyes were wide open, and there seemed to be Purple Eyes thunder raging in his pupils. He held Amenonuhoko's knuckles until they turned white, and his whole body exuded an almost substantial terrifying aura that was a mixture of violent Chakra and overwhelming anger!
Red and warm!
Sage of Six Paths, the legendary ancestor who founded Ninshu, pacified troubled times, and lived for thousands of years, was suddenly angered by Naruto Uzumaki using a series of combinations of "language arts"!
"Uzumaki--Naruto--!!!"
A low, gnashing roar that seemed to come from the Nine Nether Hells sounded from the bottom of the sinkhole.
The next moment, Purple Eyes Chakra's light beam, which was even more violent and reckless, seemed to completely evaporate the entire sinkhole, soared into the sky from Sage of Six Paths.
Obviously, what awaits Naruto next will be Sage of Six Paths's full, unreserved, and devastating explosion in a state of rage.
And Naruto, looking at the soaring purple light and Sage of Six Paths's red and warm face, not only was not afraid, but smiled even happier, with excitement burning in his eyes Flames:
"That's right. Fighting should look like fighting. It's so boring to just talk!"
"Come! Have a good fight!"
