Chapter 274: The Six Paths Sage's Scheme! (Subscribe! Auto-Subscribe!)

The Six Paths Sage thought of someone at once.

Or rather, a frog.

Gamamaru!

The very frog that had first brought him the prophecy and the secrets concerning Kaguya.

At this point in time, Gamamaru had already grown old, and his memory was beginning to break and fade.

This was also the reason the Six Paths Sage pursued immortality.

A being like Gamamaru was, by now, already on the verge of death at any moment.

And the time left to him would not be much either.

Unless he could transform into the Shinigami.

At this critical moment, he naturally did not want to give up the Shinigami transformation.

But he wanted even less for anyone to share his power, to share his territory.

And so, the Six Paths Sage split off a sliver of soul and headed straight for Mount Myoboku.

He wanted Gamamaru of Mount Myoboku to deliver a prophecy, so that two powerful ninja would target Ishihara's organization and find Ishihara.

To have them kill Ishihara's body!

And those two ninja were none other than the still-living Indra and Asura.

Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto!

At this moment, Ishihara, who was constantly experimenting in the Pure Land, knew nothing of these schemes.

He was still trying again and again to figure out how to create the particles he had newly named Reishi.

Ishihara first tried to absorb those mysterious free-floating particles of power, the Reishi, into his own body.

But without exception, not one of the 143 attempts succeeded.

However, this did not make Ishihara give up; he began trying to use other energies to surround the Reishi and fuse it into his body.

First was chakra, and it failed.

Next came natural energy, and the energy of Yin-Yang Release ninjutsu.

Finally, with the help of Yin-Yang Release, he succeeded in sending a small pinch of Reishi into his body.

Originally he had thought he had succeeded, but the moment he let go, those Reishi simply ran straight back out of his body.
