Chapter 162

Looking at the man lying on the ground, Madara Uchiha’s eyes were filled with admiration.

Regardless of anything else, this guy’s willingness to risk his life to fight others was worthy of praise.

"I, Madara Uchiha, declare Itachi the strongest ninja in taijutsu!"

Madara Uchiha praised him without reservation, then stepped over Might Guy and turned his gaze toward Naruto and Sasuke.

Next, it was time to finish these two off!

But who would have thought that Might Guy would grab Madara Uchiha’s right foot.

Although that kick had nearly cost him his life and left his right leg completely immobile.

He would absolutely not let this guy harm the ninjas of the Hidden Leaf Village!

"Guy-sensei...!"

Seeing this, Naruto burst into tears and charged straight toward Madara Uchiha.

The Truth-Seeking Balls behind him shot fiercely toward Madara Uchiha.

Madara Uchiha frowned, preparing to stomp Might Guy to death.

However, the next second, Sasuke appeared beneath his foot!

It was Amenotejikara!

Sasuke had swapped places with Might Guy!

Sasuke blocked Madara Uchiha’s kick with his hands held in front of his chest.

At this moment, Naruto also arrived.

As for the Truth-Seeking Balls, they all flew away during the collision.

But Naruto only had seven Truth-Seeking Balls, while Madara Uchiha had nine!

If Itachi counted the monk's staff, that made ten!

Madara Uchiha ignored Naruto; after all, there were still two Truth-Seeking Balls left to deal with.

He didn't believe the opponent would dare ignore the attack of the Truth-Seeking Balls.

Madara Uchiha turned his gaze directly to Sasuke, swinging his monk's staff down fiercely at him.

"Sasuke!"

Seeing this, Naruto’s eyes turned bloodshot. Guy-sensei was severely injured; was Sasuke going to be severely injured too?

In the shadows, the Sage of Six Paths, who had just finished setting up a seal, frowned upon seeing this.

He hadn't expected that even after giving his power to these two, they were still going to lose?

One had to know that the power he gave them was enough to seal even Kaguya!

He had given them such great power precisely because he was afraid of Kaguya escaping.

This left the Sage of Six Paths feeling speechless, though after thinking about it, perhaps it was normal?

After all, these two ninjas hadn't experienced many wars, their combat experience wasn't rich, so losing seemed normal?

And this guy named Madara Uchiha had combat experience that could be called exceptionally rich.

"There's really no helping Itachi all, but Kaguya must never be released.

Otherwise, if those guys sensed Kaguya's existence, they would surely come to the ninja world, right?

Before I have fully achieved Shinigami-fication, it is absolutely not allowed!"

The Sage of Six Paths muttered to himself, then condensed a pale blue sphere in his palm.

"Go!"

Following that, the Sage of Six Paths tossed the small blue sphere out.

The small blue sphere tore through space and arrived beside Madara Uchiha.

The moment the small blue sphere appeared, Shi Yuan sensed it.

He looked at the top of Madara Uchiha’s head in surprise; everyone else seemed not to see the sphere, but he saw it clearly!

This was a sphere condensed from spiritual energy; it actually felt similar to a Rasengan!

Except, this sphere could fly!

This pure spiritual energy attack made Shi Yuan think of one person.

The Sage of Six Paths!

Why was this guy interfering in the battle?

Did he also want to let Kaguya out?

After all, when Madara Uchiha failed, Black Zetsu would likely emerge to control Madara Uchiha and undo Kaguya’s seal, right?

At this moment, the small blue sphere smashed fiercely into Madara Uchiha’s head.

Instantly, Madara Uchiha felt a wave of dizziness, and his whole body felt terrible.

"Good chance! Naruto!"

Seeing this, Sasuke roared, then extended his right hand, and Naruto extended his left.

The power of Yin and Yang radiated from their palms; at this moment, Shi Yuan finally understood the Sage of Six Paths' scheme!

"Stop!"

Shi Yuan roared and rushed out, wanting to stop Naruto and Sasuke.

However, it was already too late!

Naruto and Sasuke used the power of Yin and Yang to surround Madara Uchiha!

The power of the Tailed Beasts was continuously being split from Madara Uchiha’s body!

However, it wasn't over yet; the Tailed Beasts were only separated, not dead, so Kaguya still had a chance.

Yet, another anomaly occurred!

The Sage of Six Paths had long been prepared; the moment the Tailed Beasts were separated, they were summoned away by the Sage of Six Paths.

If he wanted to drag out the time as much as possible, he had to heartlessly kill these Tailed Beasts.

Seeing this, Shi Yuan’s pupils shrank sharply; if the Tailed Beasts were killed, it would take years for them to resurrect!

And based on the amount of chakra in the Tailed Beasts, the Nine-Tails' resurrection time was destined to be very long!

Perhaps even ten years, who could say.

Shi Yuan didn't want to waste time here; he wanted to study Kaguya’s power and the missing portion of chakra.

Then he would go to the Underworld; if the Tailed Beasts were dispersed, he would have no choice but to go to the Underworld first.

But the Underworld was a ghost-forsaken place; no one knew how time flowed there.

He had only felt like a few days had passed, yet two years had gone by in the ninja world.

Suddenly, Shi Yuan thought of a possibility!

Could it be that from the very beginning, the Sage of Six Paths had noticed him and had been secretly acting against him?

Although he didn't know why he hadn't launched a direct attack, many details were terrifying the more he thought about them.

It was very likely that the barrier he had broken not only prevented surrounding spirit particles from entering but also locked the time in that area of space!

And now the Sage of Six Paths must have sensed that he was about to figure out the method of immortality related to chakra.

So he wanted to delay the time of Kaguya’s emergence, and perhaps he would soon take direct action against him?

Shi Yuan was certain that the Sage of Six Paths was up to no good!

And in reality, that was indeed the case; if he didn't lack the absolute certainty to deal with Shi Yuan right now.

The Sage of Six Paths would never use such methods to stall for time or trip him up in the dark.

If his strength were sufficient, he would probably have killed Shi Yuan directly, right?

"Sage of Six Paths?"

"Sage of Six Paths?!"

When the Sage of Six Paths made his move, Naruto and Sasuke also looked over.

Sasuke felt very pleasantly surprised; the Sage of Six Paths had actually acted to eliminate these Tailed Beasts!

Then the only one left in the ninja world was that guy Shi Yuan!

With the same Rinnegan, he couldn't possibly lose.

As for Naruto?

Once the Tailed Beasts were resurrected, the blow to Naruto’s strength would be very significant.

He remembered the Sage of Six Paths telling him that he belonged to Indra’s power.
