Chapter 340: Overwhelming Strength

Black Zetsu: "..."

Facing Itsuki's gaze, he wanted to retort.

Too bad!

He couldn't do it!

He was really a little afraid of this guy!

Just now, he wanted to help, but after being glanced at by Itsuki, he immediately quieted down.

He had a feeling that he would be killed instantly by the other party.

Moreover!

This was his mother's special space-time, and here, his Kamui power was also disturbed, not as flexible as the outside world.

Here, if he was really beaten to death, he deserved it!

"Humph!"

Seeing that Black Zetsu was being honest, Itsuki snorted softly.

If he dared to talk nonsense, he would really kill him.

Kaguya wouldn't turn against him for this.

To put it bluntly, this was just a chakra product of Kaguya.

This woman, Kaguya, even dared to kill her own son, let alone a chakra son.

Killing him was no pressure at all!

"You want to fight me again?"

Kaguya frowned.

She had already surrendered, but the other party healed her and asked for another fight?

Hehe, was he so confident in himself?

Or was it that the other party didn't like her at all?

"Okay!"

After Kaguya finished this sentence, her whole body tensed up.

According to her understanding of Itsuki, the moment the word "Okay" fell, the other party should launch an attack.

But who knew.

Itsuki still looked at her with a smile, not preparing to attack at all.

"Ready?"

Itsuki asked softly.

Kaguya was startled, and then, a surge of anger rose in her heart.

The other party was making her fully prepared before launching an attack.

How much did he look down on her?

However!

Kaguya didn't dare to be careless.

"Of course!"

"Bang!"

As Kaguya's words fell, she attacked first.

Two All-Killing Ash Bones stabbed towards Itsuki.

"Swish!"

Itsuki easily dodged.

He was not like Naruto.

After transforming into a sage, his whole body almost merged into nature. In the state of comprehending nature, it was too easy to avoid these attacks.

The reason why Naruto fought so hard was because his sage level was too low.

He was different!

He was very strong!

He approached Kaguya rapidly, so fast that it seemed like teleportation.

This time, Kaguya was also prepared and increased the gravity in this space again, trying to affect Itsuki.

It was useless!

Itsuki summoned a Susanoo arm and slapped Kaguya fiercely.

Kaguya raised her hand, and a force called shattering shattered Susanoo's arm.

Any force or person approaching her would be completely shattered under this force.

But!

Itsuki had summoned another arm again.

"Byakugan!"

In Kaguya's eyes, the Byakugan released its power.

She opened her palm towards Itsuki.

Countless fine needles shot out.

She wanted to acupuncture Itsuki.

Itsuki directly ignored it and slapped it down fiercely. At the same time, he used Flying Thunder God.

"Poof!"

The sound of a knife piercing flesh.

Kaguya was hit again.

She was pierced through the body by Itsuki's Kusanagi sword.

She could block the opponent's Susanoo, but she couldn't block the opponent's knife.

"You..."

Kaguya looked at Itsuki in astonishment: "Did you leave a mark on me?"

"As long as there is contact, I will definitely leave a mark. This is inevitable, isn't it?"

Itsuki smiled slightly.

After fighting for so long, if he didn't leave something in the opponent's body, could he still be called a man?

Kaguya gritted her teeth and attacked again.

"Bang!"

A huge arm slapped Kaguya directly to the ground.

This time, after entering the sage mode, Itsuki clearly realized that he didn't need too many strange moves.

Speed and strength!

These two points alone were enough!

Especially in sage mode, everything else was superfluous.

"The battle is over!"

Itsuki sighed and said, "Kaguya, you are very strong, and you have many attack moves. As the ancestor of chakra, you have all the moves of all ancient races now, but when facing me, you are still a bit worse."

"Because, I am stronger than you!"

Kaguya looked a little dazed.

She still had a lot to say, but unfortunately, none of them could be used.

Just like Itsuki said, the other party was stronger.

She had so many moves, but she couldn't use them. What was the point?

The other party just turned into a sage, constantly using Flying Thunder God, and occasionally adding some Susanoo. These three simple moves had completely defeated her.

"Admit defeat?"

Itsuki looked at Kaguya with a smile.

Kaguya stared at Itsuki, nodded slightly, and said, "Of course, I have already lost to you, so naturally I won't be shameless and say no!"

A smile finally appeared on Itsuki's face.

Wasn't this good?!

If the Rabbit Goddess died in his hands like this, it would be meaningless.

Keeping her could do a lot of things.

In every sense!

Kaguya didn't know Itsuki's many thoughts, and she even breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now when Itsuki asked her, she clearly sensed a trace of cold killing intent from Itsuki.

He really wanted to kill her just now!

She had a premonition that Itsuki's patience had run out.

If she said the word "no" again, only death would greet her.

Therefore, Kaguya very directly chose to follow her heart.

I don't want to die!

If I didn't care about life and death, why did I do so many things back then?

In the end, she was sealed by her own son.

"That's right!"

Itsuki smiled.

Subduing Kaguya would make many things easier.

As for the enemy...

It was as if without Kaguya, he and those people from the Ōtsutsuki clan could get along amicably.

Through the original work, Itsuki knew a lot of things, but he didn't bother to deal with them, including the Ōtsutsuki who were hiding in the ninja world.

Why?

Because he wanted to ignore them!

He wanted to accumulate enough power before confronting them head-on, and then wipe them out in one fell swoop.

Just like the Sage of Six Paths!

Back then, Itsuki didn't have enough power, so he simply chose to ignore the Sage of Six Paths, as if he didn't exist. He could observe him however he wanted.

After he accumulated enough power, now the Sage of Six Paths was no longer in his eyes.

Taking Kaguya with him, Itsuki came to the four people who were fighting.

Senju Hashirama was fighting fiercely with Naruto and Sasuke against the Sage of Six Paths.

It had to be said that the Sage of Six Paths was really strong.

Even though he was only in a soul state, he forcibly suppressed the three of Senju Hashirama.

At this moment, the three of them could only focus on defense.

The Truth-Seeking Balls were almost played to perfection in the hands of the Sage of Six Paths.

When Itsuki arrived with Kaguya, the four immediately separated and stopped entangled, just looking at Itsuki and the two vigilantly. "Okay, stop fighting, everyone lower your temper, it's time to talk!"

Itsuki said with a smile: "Kaguya has already talked to me, she decided to give up the Infinite Tsukuyomi plan."

"You guys?"

The Sage of Six Paths' eyes sharpened and he said coldly: "Uchiha Itsuki, have you joined forces with Mother?"

His heart sank to the bottom.

The worst situation had appeared.

Mother had joined forces with Uchiha Itsuki!

What should he do?

"Hehe, Hagoromo, don't be so nervous!"

Itsuki waved his hand and said, "My agreement with you is still valid, as long as you don't break it first."

"What do you mean?"

The Sage of Six Paths frowned.

"It's very simple!"

Itsuki said with a smile, "My agreement with Kaguya doesn't affect my agreement with you. Don't you think the three of us together would be the most powerful combination in the ninja world?"

The Sage of Six Paths' expression shifted, and he looked at Kaguya in surprise.

Kaguya remained expressionless and didn't say a word.

She felt very helpless.

The Rabbit Goddess used to be the strongest person in the ninja world.

But now she was third!

Her rebellious son Hagoromo and that bastard Uchiha Itsuki were both stronger than her.

She had completely lost her voice.

Whatever they said, she had to listen!

How frustrating!

However, everything was for survival!

"From today onwards, Kaguya will live in Konoha and live a peaceful life that belongs to her. Everything outside has nothing to do with her, and the Infinite Tsukuyomi will not appear."

Itsuki said seriously, "Hagoromo, as per our agreement, let the ninja world outside of Konoha develop on its own, how about that?"

"This way, I fulfill my agreement with Kaguya and also fulfill my agreement with you."

The Sage of Six Paths frowned deeply.

Although Itsuki's words were somewhat different from their original agreement, they still satisfied him.

No!

It should be said that it was even better now than it was then!

With his mother as such a powerful force, they could fight against the Otsutsuki clan in the future.

As for the soul warriors...

As long as Uchiha Itsuki didn't interfere, he naturally had ways to make the ninja world fight.

War was like a camel that was about to be crushed, only lacking the last straw.

But!

Would it be that simple?

Uchiha Itsuki clearly had the absolute upper hand, so why would he back down in front of him?

He could clearly get rid of him!

"Hehe, Hagoromo, don't overthink it!"

Itsuki looked at the Sage of Six Paths with a smile and said in a deep voice, "Only by joining forces can the three of us better fight against the Otsutsuki clan. Otherwise, even if you get rid of me and Kaguya, are you sure you have enough confidence?"

How could that be!

The Sage of Six Paths immediately denied Itsuki's words in his heart.

Even if he had countless soul warriors, he still had no confidence against the Otsutsuki clan.

His mother was so strong, yet she feared the Otsutsuki clan.

This alone was enough to show how terrifying those Otsutsuki were.

"You, are you sure?"

"Hahaha!"

Facing the Sage of Six Paths' hesitation, Itsuki couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "Hagoromo, tell me, if I join forces with your mother now, can we beat the shit out of you?"

The Sage of Six Paths shook his head and said, "I'm naturally not your opponent..."

"Just answer me, can we beat the shit out of you?"

The Sage of Six Paths' face darkened.

Why did he have to dwell on the issue of shit?

Couldn't he be more subtle?

Wasn't it enough for him to admit defeat?

The Sage of Six Paths took a deep breath and said, "Uchiha Itsuki, do you think we can join forces?"

"Of course!"

Itsuki nodded without hesitation and said, "The conflict between you and me wasn't that big to begin with. If Kaguya doesn't dwell on the White Zetsu, the conflict between you and her will also disappear, but..."

He looked at Hashirama Senju and the two little ones.

"The three of them don't want war to happen again!"

"So?"

The Sage of Six Paths sneered.

"So, I want to give them a chance!"

Itsuki pointed at Hashirama Senju and the other two and said, "Hashirama Senju and I will return to Konoha. Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto, you two go and fulfill your dreams and see if peace will come with your efforts."

"This..."

Sasuke and Naruto were stunned.

What was going on?

They were still fighting to the death just now, so why were they being asked to fulfill their dreams in the blink of an eye?

Big Brother Itsuki, you're too fickle.

The Sage of Six Paths pondered, "Uchiha Itsuki, you mean..."

Itsuki chuckled and said, "They all lack a good beating. Constant confrontation isn't a good way to deal with things. It's better to let go and let them experience it themselves."

Heroes are made in times of trouble!

Many things, if there were no villains, the protagonists might not be protagonists.

The same was true for the Naruto world!

Itsuki believed that if there were a few key villains missing in the original story, or if the villains were more ruthless, perhaps the ending would have been different.

Just like now.

Itsuki was taking Kaguya and the Sage of Six Paths away, and he wanted to see if Naruto could still become the savior!

Would Sasuke still become a 'wanted criminal'?

"Okay!"

The Sage of Six Paths immediately nodded in agreement.

He had also experienced ups and downs.

From the time he gave his two sons their missions, he had already understood human nature.

It was a very simple question about a well.

Indra used his own power to allow the villagers to easily have water. They didn't know how to cherish it, and instead fought over it.

Ashura led the villagers and used their own power to obtain precious water sources, so the villagers cherished that water.

But!

That was only temporary.

How long could they persist?

A year?

Two years?

Ten years?

There was a saying: It's hard to please everyone!

This also showed from the side that people's personalities were diverse, and they would always have conflicts over small things.

In history, weren't many major events caused by small things!

Therefore, the Sage of Six Paths had never dared to believe in an era where people understood each other.

Unless it was in the Infinite Tsukuyomi!

Before the Fourth Great Ninja War, the Uchiha and Senju had also worked together.

What about when peace came?

Even if he could do it, what about his children?

What about his next generation?

Someone once said, I've worked so hard, can't my descendants enjoy a few days?

See!

The Tipping point of the problem came just like that.

"Then it's settled!"

After thinking it through, the Sage of Six Paths readily agreed.

Let these naive little brats have a good look at reality!

Thus!

A negotiation that pleased everyone was completed!

Kaguya went to Konoha.

Konoha belonged to Uchiha Itsuki, and he could do whatever he wanted with it.

Hashirama Senju was preparing to return to the Pure Land!

The Sage of Six Paths was the same.

As for the world outside of Konoha, neither the Sage of Six Paths nor Itsuki would interfere. Naruto and Sasuke would change it, with a time limit of twenty years.

Twenty years later, Naruto and Sasuke would return to Konoha and no longer interfere with anything outside.

After everyone made the agreement, even the Sage of Six Paths couldn't help but sigh: Everyone's happy!

Indeed.

In the Sage of Six Paths' prediction, the best outcome was that he would summon the army of the Pure Land and defeat Uchiha Itsuki and the others with a victory. Then, he would return to the Pure Land and start collecting souls again.

Now?

Everything was resolved!
