Chapter 266 Six Paths (Subscription Request)
Compared to Minato and Kushina, who only rely on residual chakra to move, Naruto is seriously injured, but his situation is much better than the two.
However, he is a very calm person and has long recognized the gap in strength, so he actually has no idea of resisting.
Because the level of strength is indeed as Uchiha Madara said, the gap between them is too big, far from being made up by experience and opportunity, so he lets the other party extract the tailed beast in his body.
But now, after hearing the conversation between his parents, Naruto stood up inexplicably driven by a force.
"I am ready to die when I set foot on this road."
Slowly walking to the front of his mother, he turned his back to Kushina and also held the huge chain, "Although... I am a person pushed by fate, I have more or less psychological expectations for what I should face."
"So you don't have to suffer because of me after death because of guilt or other feelings."
Compared with the weakened consciousness, Naruto's strong power obviously weakened the pulling force of the Ten Tails.
Staring blankly at the familiar yet strange young man walking by, Kuxingna's savage tone gradually weakened, "Naruto... Naruto."
She called out the name that she used to say often but now dared not to face, and her face was as wrinkled as the bark of a tree.
More than a decade later, the baby in the swaddling clothes has grown into a handsome man like his father, but as a mother, she did not participate in this process at all.
Minato, who was firmly sealed in the back, had a gloomier expression and did not dare to speak at all.
Compared to Kuxingna, who was in the seal and could hardly see the outside world, he occasionally had the opportunity to see the outside world from Naruto's body.
But this was not a good thing. From the moment the village concealed Naruto's identity and Naruto was isolated by the whole village, Minato, the father, had the idea of escaping for the first time in his life.
Although he finally forced himself to retreat and silently accompanied Naruto through the first half of his life, he also felt guilty and dared not face his son, nor did he dare to mention his son's experience to his wife.
It was hard for him to imagine what kind of mood his son was in at this moment, saying such a thing.
Naruto's loneliness, pain and despair for so many years were all caused by himself!
And the reason was simply because when he was born, he naturally wanted Naruto to become a hero and inherit his position, and even naturally thought that he could master the power of the tailed beast!
As a father...what right can he take for granted to plan for his child's future? He is useless and has no ability to guarantee the safety and growth of his child!
The self-blame in his heart made Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki not know how to speak, just like Naruto didn't know how to face them, they also didn't know how to face Naruto.
"Why are you frowning? Shouldn't we be happy when we are reunited?"
Instead of the two people's silence, Naruto turned his back to them and spoke slowly, "Although it is very vague, the memory of when I was just born has gradually become clearer as my abilities grow, and gradually there are pictures and feelings."
"The memory of that day and that moment is like a knife engraved in my mind, and I will never forget it."
"The embrace of my father and mother... is very warm!"
Resisting the thought of turning back, Naruto held the chain tightly with his palm very firmly, "Or did you not expect me to react like this? Maybe I should cry and shout, why did you leave me alone?"
After a pause, he smiled, "I'm sorry, in the world where you sleep, your son has grown up quietly, and he is no longer the child who only cried in your arms when he was a child."
"Rather than being protected by you two, now I hope that we... our family, work together!"
The hoarseness of the voice gradually became firm, but the hardest and most untouchable part of the heart gradually softened.
Although... he had endured a lot of pain,
but after hearing the conversation between his father and mother and recalling the scene when he was just born, his deeply hidden heaviness gradually let go.
"I'm sorry...Naruto, I'm not a qualified mother."
The familiar warmth came from behind again, and Naruto clearly felt the feeling of reassurance rising from behind, which was far more than the powerful strength.
A pair of white and thin hands pressed tightly on the back of his hand, holding the chain of the Ten Tails with him.
"I should be wrong, I am an arrogant father."
At the same time, another pair of large and warm palms stretched out from behind, resting on the back of their mother and son's hands, also holding the chain tightly.
Minato no longer blindly strengthened the seal, nor did he escape from his heart, "But no matter what happens, I love you, Naruto."
"Me too."
Such a familiar scene made Kushinai very painful, but in front of her son, she had to pretend to be calm.
At this moment, the three of them were just like they were more than a decade ago when the couple was about to die and embraced Naruto and injected their chakra into him at the last moment of their lives. The Nine-Tails in the iron cage behind them was watching this scene and felt inexplicably sad. It was this scene that started his prison life.
I really didn't expect that more than ten years later, their chakra would encounter the same thing again, and the only difference was that the child in the swaddling clothes had grown up.
"Then... come on!"
In Uchiha Madara's eyes, Uzumaki Naruto, who had already lost consciousness, stood up suddenly, holding the chain that penetrated his body tightly with both hands.
Thick blood gushed out from his back and from the wound, but he was completely unaware.
And the chakra restricted by the black stick also flowed again without knowing when, and its chakra turned into a golden coat on the surface of the body.
Hmm?
Uchiha Madara was a little surprised to feel the strong resistance from the chain pulled by the Ten-Tails. The Nine-Tails kid below seemed to have some different emotions in his eyes compared to the previous calmness, as if...
"Persistence and courage?"
He spoke calmly, although he didn't know what happened, but the ending was already doomed.
"I can only regret that you met me a few years earlier. If I had given you a few more years, it might have been really troublesome."
The next moment, the pupil power of Uchiha Madara's reincarnation eyes once again poured into the body of the Ten-Tails.
As if it was injected with an stimulant drug, the Ten-Tails roared wantonly, pulling Naruto's chain with increasing force.
Compared to the increasingly powerful power of the Ten-Tails, the chakra that was rekindled in Naruto slowly dimmed.
After all, the gap was too big, even if the heart of resistance was rekindled.
The chain in his hand was pulled out little by little, but this time, Naruto's face did not have the forced calmness, but a smile from the heart.
At least... at this moment he could feel very warm,
Although the chakra of his father and mother had long dissipated, he still felt a warmth he had never had before, which directly swept away the only trace of fear he had when facing life and death.
At this moment, Naruto realized that he was not completely indifferent to life and death. If he really prepared for the psychological expectation of facing death, he would not be so persistent in pursuing power.
Because only by constantly pursuing power can one feel at ease.
But perhaps...
He has now found something more reassuring than power, and this should be the second thing that makes him happy from the bottom of his heart since he was born.
With a relieved smile on his face, Naruto could feel the cage that sealed the Nine-Tails in his body being crushed by the sealing power on the chain. At the same time, he could also feel his vitality being pulled out with the Nine-Tails and gradually leaving his body.
Is his life worth it? At the last moment.
Thinking of this, he was about to fall asleep beautifully and put a full stop to his life.
"Just give up like this? I thought you would hold on for a while longer."
Unfortunately, Uchiha Madara didn't seem to want him to fall asleep like this, and spoke to wake him up.
Then, Naruto actually felt something like clay covering him, and the rich vitality wrapped his body.
This sticky touch made him open his eyes unconsciously, and then he met Uchiha Madara's eyes.
"You..." Although it was very strange, Naruto could still feel that Uchiha Madara seemed to be healing himself at this time, trying to make up for the vitality lost by the Nine-Tails. "I promised someone to spare your life." Uchiha Madara said condescendingly, "Killing you or not is just a trivial matter to me, so I'll spare your life." The moment the voice fell, more White Zetsu rushed to Naruto. But the vitality that was extracted after the tailed beast left the body was far from being so easy to solve. "Is it... Ryosuke?" Naruto hesitated for a moment and asked. Only he could make an agreement with Uchiha Madara, right? But when he spoke, he could feel a familiar and strange power flowing from these White Zetsu into his body. Unlike vitality, this power was extremely friendly to him, as if he had once possessed and controlled it, and it merged with the Sage Chakra in his body with ease, repairing the loopholes left after the tailed beast was extracted at an unimaginable speed! But Uchiha Madara did not answer Naruto's question. After confirming that the kid below was stable, he slowly fell from the Ten-Tails.
While the two of them were talking, the Ten-Tails that had swallowed the Nine-Tails had changed.
The huge branches that looked like arms continued to spread in all directions, and the facial features that were originally the head had completely disappeared!
Amid the rumbling sound, the Ten-Tails' body continued to grow,
and its appearance gradually turned into a tree-like appearance, with more characteristics of a tree than before.
"This moment... is finally here!"
Uchiha Madara could not hide the excitement in his tone,
and behind him, Black Zetsu was the same.
The plan that had been planned for thousands of years finally ushered in the final moment!
"Come on! Ten-Tails!"
Laughing loudly, Uchiha Madara floated in front of the Ten-Tails that had entered the perfect state with his upper body naked.
As his voice fell, the Ten-Tails turned into mist like gas and quickly poured into his body.
"Power... Power!"
Uchiha Madara clenched his fists, and the already extremely large amount of chakra became even more terrifying after the integration of the Ten-Tails.
Endless, almost infinite!
At this moment, even the natural energy floating in the air, like the sea, did not make Uchiha Madara feel the same fear as before, but instead, he felt indescribable joy!
Eyes...
With his eyes tightly closed, an eyeball suddenly appeared in Uchiha Madara's mind.
In the scarlet eyes of Samsara, nine black magatama appeared quietly in a very regular posture, and with the appearance of this eyeball, he felt everything about the planet under his feet, including its rotation trajectory, and it was also clearly reflected in his mind.
Six Paths...
The realm that he had never felt before made Uchiha Madara understand his own weakness while feeling this power.
It was just a gap in realm, but at this moment, he could definitely crush his previous self easily!
His long hair gradually turned white, and his skin all over his body also turned pale. The rich power of the Six Paths surged out of his body and turned into a scepter and black quest jades floating around his body. Uchiha Madara even felt that something like horns had grown on his head!
"Such a familiar change."
Looking at his skin color and stroking his white hair, Uchiha Madara felt that his life had evolved, and it seemed that he was no longer a human being.
And at the same time, the characteristics after the change reminded him of...
Turning his head suddenly, he looked in one direction.
Hinata Ryosuke!
The breath that he had never felt before was clearly felt by Uchiha Madara at this moment.
Sure enough, he also reached the realm of the Six Paths! And without the help of the tailed beasts!
How did he do it? !
Only when he reached this realm could Uchiha Madara feel the mystery and complexity of the Six Paths, but at the same time, it was hard to believe how a junior like Hinata Ryosuke could reach this level.
The Ten Tails was in his body, so he definitely didn't use the tailed beasts!
So...did he use external forces like himself, or did he transform himself to reach this level?
But if he relied on his own strength to transform, which way did he go?
The doubts in his heart became more and more complicated, and Uchiha Madara's heart, which was swollen because of his own strength, suddenly dissipated.
Behind him, Black Zetsu smiled coldly, as if he understood the fear in Uchiha Madara's heart through his expression and the direction he perceived.
The mystery of Hyuga Ryosuke, but even he who inherited Kaguya Otsutsuki didn't understand.
But thinking of this, Black Zetsu hurriedly urged, "Mada, it takes time for the growth of the sacred tree."
"Why don't we summon the sacred tree first, and then consider fighting with Hyuga Ryosuke?"
"At that time, whether we win or lose, we will have the opportunity to start the plan."
For his reminder, Uchiha Madara was stunned for a moment, and then nodded calmly, "Not a bad idea."
As he spoke, as he knocked on the scepter in his hand, an ancient tree rose from the ground!
"What...what is that?"
"What does Uchiha Madara want to do?!"
"Quickly!"
The war seemed to stop at this moment.
Everyone was looking at the giant tree extending into the sky, and at the same time, they also noticed Uchiha Madara floating next to the giant tree.
They did not try to get close, and Uchiha Madara's Wood Style clones did not attack either, because he was not a murderer.
Everyone looked at this scene dimly, including the restrained Senju Hashirama.
They could feel that Uchiha Madara, who had an absolute advantage, had once again reached a higher level, and the aura he exuded made everyone afraid to get close.
At this moment, the ninja coalition seemed to have lost any chance of victory.
