Looking up at the sky, Uya suddenly took a step forward, stepping directly into the void.
Buzz!!
A ripple instantly spread through the void. Uya had now reached the point where he could distort space, so air, water, or the ground made no difference to Uya.
His Body Flicker Technique: Soru, has also completely transformed into the Super Body Flicker Technique and Geppo.
Whether moving in the air or on the ground, it no longer affected Uya's speed. So, as Uya landed, he transformed into a blur of afterimages and soared into the sky.
With a series of steps, in an instant, Uya arrived in the sky, above the clouds, overlooking the entire earth. The Konoha Ninja had now pushed the battlefield to the edge of the Land of Fire, and the Kirigakure ninja had basically all been defeated and fled back to the Land of Rain.
The Konoha Ninja had no intention of crossing the sea to pursue them; they simply guarded the border and maintained a stalemate with the Kirigakure Ninja. The Kirigakure Ninja dared not take the initiative to attack again, especially since the Three-Tails Jinchūriki was still in Konoha's hands.
However, since the other Three Great Shinobi Villages had not yet surrendered or made peace, Kirigakure was naturally unwilling to be the first to do so, so they continued their stalemate with Konoha.
Although Uya remained on the battlefield, he ignored the stalemate and did not attack Kirigakure again. After the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of the Mist were wiped out, there was no one left for Uya to deal with.
Having broken through to the Sixth Stage, Uya really wanted to find Madara Uchiha and then beat him to a pulp, killing him completely. He didn't care if Madara could be resurrected or not; even if he could be resurrected, he would still kill him first, and then kill him again if he was resurrected. In short, as long as Madara Uchiha dared to show his face, he would kill him with one punch.
However, Uya didn't know where Madara Uchiha was hiding. Although his Shockwave Sensing range was already quite wide, it was still very small compared to the entire Shinobi World.
After searching the battlefield near Kirigakure without finding Madara Uchiha, Uya stepped through the sky and left the battlefield.
No matter where Madara Uchiha is, Uya isn't worried now. He'll eventually come out; he can't hide forever.
Furthermore, in the original story, Madara Uchiha did many things during the Third Shinobi World War. Even if he wasn't on this battlefield, he must have been observing the Third Shinobi World War somewhere.
After the Sunagakure's One-Tail Beast was suppressed by Uya, its offensive faltered considerably. Although the Fourth Kazekage personally took to the field, he could only manage a draw with Hatake Sakumo, and the battle lines had been pushed back to the border of the Land of Fire.
Now, only Iwagakure and Kumogakure remain in the heart of the Land of Fire.
"Over at Iwagakure, Orochimaru is leading the Konoha forces. By now, Orochimaru should have made further progress in his research on the Living Corpse Reincarnation and souls."
Uya stood in the clouds, gazing downwards, and pondered for a moment.
While Uya wasn't interested in the Living Corpse Reincarnation, he still desperately needed research into the Uya.
Uya's body has now reached a state of perfection, and even if he wanted to improve it further, it would be difficult to improve it by much.
It's like a bottle, and cultivation is like filling the bottle with water. From the First Gate to the Sixth Gate, Uya has been filling it with water, and now the bottle is completely full, and even sealed shut.
Once the bottle is full, it's impossible to add more water, so cultivation in the pure sense has become meaningless for Uya.
Uya needs to do now is figure out a way to break this bottle!
Only by breaking this bottle can we break the so-called perfection. Perfection is both an ultimate goal and a barrier; only by breaking it can we transcend it further.
Uya didn't know how to open the Seventh Gate because her body was already difficult to improve, so she couldn't open the Seventh Gate by focusing on her physical body. That left only two aspects: Chakra and soul.
Chakra? Uya felt that if he collected the Tailed Beast, created the Ten-Tails, and became its Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, he could undoubtedly break through the bottleneck and reach the Seventh Gate.
However, the Rinnegan is a problem, and Ten-Tails Jinchuriki is not a good thing. Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki was the Ten-Tails itself, so becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki was like turning herself into a time bomb.
If Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki's consciousness cannot be suppressed, she could be resurrected at any time by using the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki. This is what happened to Madara Uchiha Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki the original work. He seemed to be ambushed by Black Zetsu, but in reality, Black Zetsu triggered Princess Kaguya's will and seized control of her body.
The path to breakthrough through Chakra is difficult, so only the path of the soul remains.
Uya had previously comprehended the heart of a strong person. After his spiritual transformation, his soul became twice as powerful, and he seemed to have a faint feeling that his soul could reach a certain level.
Although it was just a feeling, Uya knew that if his soul could truly advance further, it might be the opportunity to open the Seventh Gate.
The previous soul transformation was an accidental event, and had nothing to do with the Sage Body or the opening of the Sixth Gate of the True Eight Gates Released Formation.
The soul transformation first brought Uya close to an unknown realm of the soul, and at the same time, it made the Mental Shock on Uya even stronger.
Under the current Mental Shock, even an Elite Jonin Uya not be able to withstand Yu Ye and would directly lose consciousness. Even Quasi-Kage would probably have a hard time resisting him.
Only those battle-hardened, near-perfect, and peak -Kage Level powerhouses could somewhat resist Uya's Mental Shock.
To put it bluntly, Uya has countless ways to destroy a major ninja village right now.
Just like Madara Uchiha in the original work, both the Tengai Shinsei and the Complete Body Susanoo are capable of destroying the world and easily annihilating a major ninja village.
When strength reaches a certain level, the tactic of overwhelming numbers becomes completely ineffective. Anyone below the Kage Level is an ant, and even at the Kage Level, they are still just slightly larger ants.
"In that case, let's go see how much Orochimaru has researched during this time."
After gathering his thoughts, Uya looked up at the horizon and stepped directly in the air, his figure flashing as he disappeared into the sky.
With the Sage Body and the Sixth Gate of the True Eight Gates Released Formation, Uya's stamina reached a terrifying level, almost inexhaustible, as did his Chakra.
It wasn't that the quantity was so large, but rather that the recovery speed was terrifying. Even when using the Body Flicker Technique: Geppo, Uya didn't feel tired.
Uya didn't summon the Seven-Tails because she wanted to experience what it felt like to run in the sky. (To be continued.)
