Only two people present looked unperturbed: Tobirama, who had already guessed the truth, and Kikyo, who had complete faith in her dad.
Tsunade suddenly remembered the warning Jiraiya had once given her, and her heart sank.
Mei Terumi reacted first and asked, "Where are the two of them now? Why can't we sense them?"
"The Primordial Ball Space. It's a space that belongs exclusively to my mother." Hagoromo turned his gaze toward Naruto and Sasuke and said gravely, "Now, I've given my power to you. As long as you work together, you can seal her away, then undo the Infinite Tsukuyomi and put the entire ninja world back on track."
Naruto agreed at once. "All right, but how do we get into that space or whatever?"
Hagoromo was just about to speak when a cold voice rang out.
"You've been dead for so many years. Stop thinking about coming back to save the world. Sage of Six Paths, do you think this ninja world you created is perfect? Is that why you've decided to let this system continue forever?"
The sudden voice drew everyone's gaze.
"Kazekage?" Ōnoki said gravely. "After the Five Kage fought Madara, you disappeared without explanation. What do you mean by showing up now and saying that?"
Something had already occurred to Minato. He sighed and stepped forward. "Sasori, is all this part of Anyo's plan too?"
Sasori nodded. "Yes. Actually, this is the most complicated, most troublesome approach. My way would have been much simpler. Minato, you should know that changing the ninja system has never been as simple as just talking about it."
Minato asked, "How confident is Anyo?"
"Completely."
"Wait." Naruto was confused and interrupted, "What are you talking about? Dad, what exactly is this plan, and why do you know about it too?"
