Chapter 542

But he had absolutely no way to deal with Hashirama Senju and the others!!!

Now he could only be casually trampled by Hashirama Senju,

and this was what made Otsutsuki Hagoromo feel the most desolate,

Once he had believed himself to be the strongest person in this world,

so everything he did was also the most correct,

but after being defeated by Hashirama Senju again and again,

the thought was gone forever from Otsutsuki Hagoromo's heart,

on the contrary, he only felt boundless desolation over the things he had done,

and now that Hashirama Senju had surpassed him,

even Madara Uchiha could trample him so casually,

which made the Sage of Six Paths fall into deep self-doubt,

he had lived all these years only to have them go to the dogs,

if Hashirama Senju and the others had a foundation like his,

wouldn't they have long since surpassed everything in the universe?

After so many years of defeating Kaguya Otsutsuki,

what on earth had he been doing in the shinobi world?

310. Madara Uchiha's Crushing Once More!!

As he thought on and on,

the Sage of Six Paths' doubts toward himself grew heavier and heavier!!!

Because right now he had no idea what he ought to become to be the best version of himself!!

The present him had already lost to Hashirama Senju more than once.

Even Madara Uchiha could now fight him to a draw,

or even gain the upper hand!!!

Could it be that he had truly been wrong,

that he had truly been cast aside by the times?!

That was the greatest doubt in the Sage of Six Paths' own heart!!!

If not for all these doubts within him,

the Sage of Six Paths would not have kept questioning himself,

it was precisely this ceaseless doubt in him

that let the Sage of Six Paths understand for himself

that perhaps at this very moment he had already reached his own limit!!

He might truly have been cast aside by this era,

what Hashirama Senju and the others were doing was the right way,

while his own approach all along had never really been correct!!!

As if sensing the ceaseless doubts in Otsutsuki Hagoromo's heart,

Kaguya Otsutsuki now looked upon her son with an utterly complicated expression!!!

Because she knew

no matter what,

she could no longer say anything to Otsutsuki Hagoromo!!!

And Madara Uchiha's gaze toward the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, grew ever more contemptuous,

he had never expected

that the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, having reached this point, would still harbor so many doubts?!?

his own strength had only barely reached this stage,

yet the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, had never been able to read the situation,

he still believed himself to be this world's savior,

and that was what Madara Uchiha despised most!!!

If it had been an earlier era,

and the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, had viewed himself that way,

Madara Uchiha would have thought there was nothing wrong with it,

but the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, of today

had long since been cast aside by this era in terms of strength!!

Yet the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo,

still believed himself to be the most powerful being in this world,

he clung to the outlook of the old era as he looked upon this new one!!!

That was what Madara Uchiha found most contemptible,

and besides, Madara Uchiha felt that having cultivated one's strength to the level of the Sage of Six Paths,

yet on the one hand the Sage of Six Paths did not approve of Hashirama Senju's ideals,

and on the other hand he had no way to uphold his own ideals either,

that was what made Madara Uchiha feel even more contemptuous,

he believed the Sage of Six Paths had never truly upheld his own ideals — he was still wavering!!

This is precisely the one point that makes Madara Uchiha look down on him!!!

"Sage of Six Paths… since you've never once believed there was anything wrong with what you did, then the two of us can try it out right now and see just whose strength is superior?!"

"In the battle I just had with you, I've gained some new insights…"

"This time when the two of us clash, it won't be a draw like before. This time I'll make you understand what true power really is…"

A supremely confident smile surfaced on Madara Uchiha's face,

as if he had already figured out how he should deal with the Sage of Six Paths!!!

And the Sage of Six Paths, upon hearing Madara Uchiha say this,

seemed to understand as well just why Madara Uchiha dared to speak such words to him!!

Upon hearing Madara Uchiha say this,

the Sage of Six Paths' heart gave a sudden 'thud', and a bad premonition arose within him!!

Could it be that Madara Uchiha had truly made further progress in his battle just now???

In such a brief span of combat,

he had gained several new comprehensions of Six Paths-level power??

The Sage of Six Paths felt the situation slipping further and further beyond his control,

and in his eyes, Madara Uchiha was originally nothing more than the reincarnation of his son Indra,

and even though his son Indra's talent was extraordinarily great,

the Sage of Six Paths still believed that the upper limit of Indra's cultivation would not surpass the Six Paths level,

yet Madara Uchiha had long since far exceeded his understanding of Indra,

apart from the fact that Madara Uchiha had once carried the aura of Indra's chakra on him,

the Sage of Six Paths believed Madara Uchiha's talent was even greater than Indra's,

and his demeanor was even more arrogant,

and this was the one point the Sage of Six Paths could not endure!!!

【Jiraiya: Hiss… is this guy Madara Uchiha's talent really that terrifying? He only fought the Sage of Six Paths for a short while, yet he actually made new progress again??】

【Orochimaru: Hehe… worthy of being the legend of the Warring States era. Even compared to the Madara Uchiha of our world, he probably wouldn't be far off. If a new path lies ahead, perhaps Madara Uchiha could likewise improve just as fast as his other self!!!】

【Tsunade: That's right… since that other grandpa's strength rose so quickly, Madara Uchiha naturally rises with the tide. With grandpa blazing a new and more powerful path, Madara Uchiha, just like grandpa, has stepped onto a new level!!】

【Fourth Raikage: Setting aside the fact that the Sage of Six Paths is the progenitor of the ninja world, compared to Madara Uchiha, the Sage of Six Paths' strength isn't actually that great… and his talent no longer seems all that outstanding either!!】

【Ohnoki: None of you have ever come into contact with this guy Madara Uchiha personally. I have dealt with this guy myself, so I understand him very well. This man is simply a being born for battle!!】

【Roshi: Ohnoki… aren't you exaggerating a bit with what you're saying? Even though I consider Madara Uchiha extremely powerful, you don't have to praise him to that extent, do you?】
