After arriving at the hospital, Didaze placed Karen on the bed and then went outside to find Ōnoki.
"Old man, how is Nanako?"
Didaze knew about Karen's condition; it was simply a fainting spell caused by excessive mental stress followed by sudden relaxation, and it wasn't anything serious.
" Nanako is fine, she just overused her Chakra, she'll be fine in a few days."
"Ōnoki said."
"You're quite good at keeping secrets, aren't you? I only found out now that Nanako already knows the Adamantine Sealing Chains! You kept it from an old man like me!"
Ōnoki said with a smile.
He is very happy now because he has seen the potential of the new Iwagakure.
Iwagakure has Kitsuchi, Didaze, Nanako, Gari, and so on.
Ōnoki felt that even if he died, he would have done something worthwhile for his master.
"Old man, wait a minute, the Tailed Beast inside me is acting up. I'm going to the mental space."
Didaze suddenly spoke to Ōnoki, then sat down on the stool and entered the mental space.
Ōnoki stood guard over Didaze.
Mental Space
The Six-Tails is trying to interfere with Didaze using its Chakra, preventing Didaze from using Ninjutsu normally.
" Six-Tails, sit down and let's chat."
Didaze looked at the Six-Tails, which was constantly infiltrating its Chakra through the seal, and spoke to it.
The Six-Tails completely ignored Didaze, focusing solely on releasing Chakra in an attempt to disrupt Didaze.
" Saiken, sit down and have a good talk."
Seeing that the Six-Tails was ignoring him, Didaze called out the other's name directly.
How do you know my name?!
The voice of the Six-Tails came through; it was a mature, older woman's voice.
"Oh? So you're female?"
Didaze was somewhat surprised.
He had assumed the Six-Tails was male, but it turned out to be female, and with such a beautiful voice.
"You haven't answered my question yet: how do you know my name!"
Six-Tails asked impatiently.
"This all started with a dream I had a long time ago..."
Didaze struck a pose as if reminiscing.
"When I was a child, I had a dream. I dreamt of an old man holding a scepter, and his eyes were wavy."
" The Sage of Six Paths!"
The Saiken's eyes narrowed; she already knew who Didaze was referring to.
"The old man holding the scepter told me that the world would be destroyed by someone named Otsutsuki Kaguya, Otsutsuki Kaguya would bring about the end of the world. He hoped that I could gather all the forces that the Shinobi World could muster before the end of the world came to fight against Otsutsuki Kaguya."
"And there will be even more terrifying extraterrestrial beings afterward. If we continue to be scattered like this, we will be completely wiped out when we are invaded."
Didaze continued.
The Six-Tails seemed to have believed Didaze's words and sat on the ground without saying a word.
"And he also told me that the Nine Tailed Beasts were separated from a creature called the Ten-Tails!"
Didaze glanced at the Six-Tails and continued speaking.
"You actually know about the Ten-Tails..."
Six-Tails raised its head and looked at Didaze, trying to glean something from Didaze's eyes.
But all he could see was unwavering resolve.
However, this kind of determination is different from that kind of determination. Didaze's determination comes from his determination to fool the Six-Tails.
However, the Six-Tails interpreted it as Didaze's determination to fight against Otsutsuki Kaguya.
"I believe what you say. The Sage of Six Paths told us these things before, but I've almost forgotten them because it's been so long."
The Six-Tails spoke slowly.
Knowing only about the Ten-Tails could be considered a fluke, but knowing about Otsutsuki Kaguya is definitely not a fluke.
Although the extraterrestrial visitor, the Six-Tails, is unknown, based on what Didaze said earlier, this extraterrestrial visitor is probably not someone to be trifled with.
The Sage of Six Paths probably didn't tell them because he didn't want them to worry.
The Six-Tails has come to believe Didaze.
"You actually opened the door like that?"
Didaze sensed that the Six-Tails trusted him and immediately opened the sealing gate.
"Of course, after all, we'll be fighting together against Otsutsuki Kaguya and the extraterrestrials!"
Didaze said with a smile.
He wasn't lying.
Aside from borrowing the name of the Sage of Six Paths, which of his other statements isn't true?
"I'll need to rely on you a lot more in the future."
Didaze extended his fist and touched the Six-Tails.
The Six-Tails sensed Didaze's current state of mind.
Didaze's words are all true: the Ten-Tails, Otsutsuki Kaguya, the extraterrestrial visitors—these are all real.
And Didaze did indeed see the Sage of Six Paths.
The mutual perception of each other's inner feelings is a very abstract concept, like a multiple-choice question that gives you a yes or no option.
However, you can't directly perceive the visuals.
The Nine-Tails could see the scene mainly because it had seen it with its own eyes; it wasn't Nine-Tails it saw because of the fist bump.
He simply understood how Naruto felt at that time.
Furthermore, the Six-Tails had no prior interaction with Didaze; a fist bump was merely enough for the Six-Tails to sense whether Didaze's words were true.
Didaze clearly did not deceive the Six-Tails, so the Six-Tails sensed that everything Didaze said was true.
As for seeing the Sage of Six Paths, does seeing him on TV mean you've actually seen him?
Of course, the main reason is that this is the first time the Six-Tails has ever punched someone, and it doesn't understand anything.
If Didaze had encountered the Six-Tails Six-Tails once before, he wouldn't have been so easily fooled.
After this fist bump, the Six-Tails completely trusted Didaze, even believing that Didaze was the one chosen by the Sage of Six Paths to save the Tailed Beast.
" Saiken, would you like to go out and play?"
Didaze looked up at the Saiken and spoke.
"Want to go out and have some fun?"
The Six-Tails was somewhat puzzled; if she left Didaze's body, Didaze would die instantly.
"I'll teach you..."
Didaze approached the Six-Tails Six-Tails placed his hand on its body.
After a long time
"Success!"
The Six-Tails was surprised to find that it could allow its consciousness to enter this smaller version of the Six-Tails, and that it could leave without causing Didaze's death.
"You can really play with Katsuyu like this."
Didaze nodded in satisfaction.
The Six-Tails is actually a giant Katsuyu. Katsuyu Sage can split into smaller versions of itself, there's no reason why the Six-Tails can't.
"I'll take you out of the mental space."
Didaze touched the small Six-Tails creature on his shoulder.
"Hmm... it feels like touching a bar of soap that's been soaked in water."
Six-Tails nodded obediently.
Didaze left the psycho-space with the miniature Six-Tails.
"This..."
Ōnoki's pupils dilated instantly as he stared at the miniature Six-Tails that wouldn't appear on Didaze's shoulder!
"Old man, I've made peace with Six-Tails."
Didaze said it casually.
