Trees Chapter 276 Sage of Six Paths: Let Me See What's Going On Here?

Naruto clutched his head, feeling like he was about to explode.

‘Damn it, I just saved the Shinobi World from the brink of destruction!!’

‘Hidan, don’t you dare mess this up!’

The Terminator invasion was already bad enough, and now if Hidan went ahead and summoned Boruto again...

Naruto genuinely felt like the Shinobi World would be done for.

"Hey, old man, let us go back already!!"

"Otherwise, the Shinobi World is really going to be finished!"

Naruto hugged his head, so anxious that he didn’t even call him ‘Grandpa Six Paths’ this time.

Sasuke's face was solemn. He didn't know how powerful the puppets in the outside world was.

But...

Every time Hidan summoned Boruto, it got more terrifying than the last.

A question mark slowly appeared above the Sage of Six Paths’s head.

‘What’s going on??’

‘Is there an even bigger crisis looming over the Shinobi World??’

The Sage of Six Paths is very confused right now.

Those puppets pouring out of the cracks were already terrifying enough, so if something even worse showed up…

He didn’t even dare imagine what would happen.

Plus, the Yin and Yang power he had just bestowed upon the two wasn’t infinite.

That strength was only enough for the two to perform a Six Paths Chibaku Tensei.

If anything else happened...

The Sage of Six Paths estimated that there was a high probability that these two kids probably wouldn’t be able to handle it.

‘No!’

‘It seems I’ll have to step in myself!’

The Sage of Six Paths thought for a while and his expression became solemn. He looked at the two and spoke slowly, "I'll leave those puppets to you two."

"As for that so-called Jashin..."

"Don't worry about it."

Sasuke nodded without objection.

He had heard tales of the Sage of Six Paths since he was young, and it was said that he was a very powerful being.

Based on his own judgment, this old man is very likely to possess the strength of a half-step Dou Saint. (T/N: A power ranking in BTTH, which is already a very strong rank.)

So he believed it shouldn't be a big problem for him to deal with the Jashin Boruto.

But Naruto didn’t share the same thought.

While he didn't know the current state of the Sage of Six Paths, but judging by appearances, he was probably just some kind of consciousness or soul entity.

And if his deranged son faced the Sage of Six Paths...

He’d absolutely devour this old man without breaking a sweat!

"No!"

"You absolutely can’t go!!"

"You’re no match for that Jashin!"

Naruto hurriedly tried to stop him, and even Kurama in the sealed space spoke up.

"Old man, you have no idea what kind of monster that is!"

"If you go now..."

"You’ll really die!"

When the Sage of Six Paths heard the two questioning his strength, the expression on his face stiffened.

A strange emotion also arose in his heart.

‘I’m the strongest being in the entire Shinobi World!’

‘How could there possibly be something I can’t handle!?’

‘Or was it because it has been a thousand years since the Ninja World came along, so everyone has forgotten how powerful I am?’

It would have been better if Naruto and Kurama didn't say anything, but after they tried to persuade him, Sage of Six Paths became more determined to personally intervene and resolve the crisis.

"There’s no need to worry about me."

After the Sage of Six Paths finished speaking, his figure gradually became transparent.

"Damn it!!"

"Will you just listen to me first, you idiot!!"

Naruto was on the verge of losing it.

‘Why does everyone in the Shinobi World keep cutting me off before I can finish speaking?!’

Sasuke wanted to ask Naruto what was going on, but in the next second, but the next second, everything went dark again.

…

Land of Fire

"Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique!!!"

Nagato clapped his hands together and once again pulled the people of the Land of Fire back from the Pure Land.

And his healthy body instantly withered like a deflated balloon.

Konan next to him had a numb expression and mechanically took out the Totem of Undying and placed it on Nagato.

Then, she took out a hemp rope and swiftly tied Nagato to the statue, wrapping it several times.

She even expertly tied a neat little bow.

Then, she quickly picked up Nagato and flew into the air.

Boom…

The moment they left, a violent explosion erupted right where they had been standing.

The whole process can't be said to be completed in one go, but it can be said to be so smooth that it's heartbreaking.

For some unknown reason, the puppets that originally only attacked the Akatsuki have begun to attack other villages as their numbers grew.

What was even more terrifying was...

The puppets' attacks were growing stronger with each assault.

Konan had long lost count of how many times Nagato had revived everyone.

But thankfully, thanks to what Itachi had brought...

"Oh no!"

"I've run out of scrolls..."

Konan touched her empty pockets and her expression became even uglier.

She quickly pulled out her phone and called Obito.

"Obito!"

"What’s the situation on your end!?"

"Have you gathered all the puppets yet!?"

The moment the call connected, Konan fired off a barrage of questions.

All members of their Akatsuki went through three days and nights of brutal combat, during which everyone was killed several times.

Of course, except for Hidan.

After enduring such a prolonged battle, Nagato and Obito had devised a plan.

They would lure all the puppets to a single location and then transport them into the Kamui Dimension.

After that, Hidan would summon the Jashin to eliminate them all.

Not only would this protect the Shinobi World, but it would also take care of their enemies.

A perfect example of killing two birds with one stone!

There was a lot of noise coming from Obito's end, such as explosions and shouting, which made Konan frown.

"Damn it, Kakashi! If you keep this up, I swear…!!"

"It will be ready soon..."

"Hurry up, Konan... lure the last two puppets over here."

"Obito! I have to finish you off today!"

Damn it, Kakashi! Have you lost your mind?!"

Obito was about to collapse.

He had only reluctantly cooperated with the Akatsuki for the sake of the Eye of the Moon Plan.

In order to successfully eliminate these puppets, he even shared some of his ability’s information with Konan.

At this point, he might as well have handed over his underwear.

But Kakashi...

At first, everyone had been fighting normally, and Kakashi had even used Kamui to escape at critical moments.

But then...

At around 6 o’clock in the morning on the second day, as Obito was fighting alongside the Akatsuki as usual, he used his Mangekyo to slip into the Kamui Dimension like always.

Except...

What were waiting for him were more than twenty puppets!

In the end, he had to use Izanagi and sacrificed a three-tomoe Sharingan just to escape from the Kamui Dimension.

Faced with the sudden stab in the back, Obito was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Saving the world was already frustrating enough.

But with Kakashi relentlessly targeting him, Obito truly had no outlet for his rage.

“Raikiri…”

Just as Obito was cursing, Kakashi's hands crackled with lightning, and his body turned into lightning as he rushed towards Obito.

"Kakashi, have you lost your mind!?"

"Can’t we settle our personal grudge after we deal with this mess?!"

Boom…

The explosion erupted again, and the powerful shockwave forced both men to halt their fight.

They immediately turned and ran away.

"Those puppets don’t even attack me."

"Besides..."

"If I kill you, I can still drag the puppets into Kamui Dimension myself."

As Kakashi said that, he glared at the two puppets beside him with his Mangekyo.

After finishing the job, he said it lightly, "I can't help it. I just have too much Chakra."

Obito: “...”

‘Is there something seriously wrong with Kakashi's brain?!’
