—Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique!
On the scarred earth, Yama rose as a towering statue, opening its great mouth connecting the yin and yang worlds, spitting out green light rain!
Each ghostly gleam was a departed soul, seeking the place where their bones had fallen in life, returning to their shells with injuries and chakra fully restored!
Even those whose bones had been completely destroyed would have bodies molded from nothing according to their souls!
"This, this kind of thing..." Green light everywhere, the dead rising one after another, shocking the ninjas speechless!
However, this scene was no longer unfamiliar to the Konoha ninjas present!
"This technique... it's Pain Nagato's resurrection technique!!!"
"What's happening? Who used this technique!!"
Nara Shikaku's gaze was penetrating: "It seems Naruto has made his decision, and it's not just ninjas being revived, but White Zetsu too..."
The ninjas were on high alert: "Take out these white guys!!"
The White Zetsu all said: "Don't, don't attack, we're allies!!"
With the statue's connection to the Ten-Tails severed from Kaguya, they were no longer controlled by the statue!
Just when everyone thought things had come to an end, at the tail end of the green light rain, a golden light rain followed, falling toward the 'Impure World Reincarnation' subjects present!
Because Impure World Reincarnation originally bound souls within living sacrifices, that golden light rain wasn't souls, but... a special chakra!
Chakra that could truly revive the Impure World Reincarnation subjects!
Whoosh!
Golden light descending from heaven enveloped Obito.
After a moment's hesitation, his gaze became profound!
—Danmetsu Senti!
The next second, Obito actually used Danmetsu Senti to sever the connection between Samsara of Heavenly Life and himself!
Whoosh!
The golden light dissipated. Obito had given up the chance for revival, choosing to remain in his Impure World Reincarnation body!
Kakashi was shocked: "Obito, you..."
Obito said calmly: "This Impure World Reincarnation body is more useful than a flesh and blood one."
Kakashi was heartbroken: "But..."
Obito glanced sideways, teasing: "Not so many 'buts.' Besides, I'm not like you, needing to survive on those books..."
"Sigh..." Kakashi sighed. He knew Obito had given up revival to prevent more deaths.
Obito said: "This is also part of atonement..."
At this time, Tobirama walked over: "Obito, help me sever the karma of Samsara of Heavenly Life too!"
Obito said seriously: "Are you sure? This is a good chance to get out of being single..."
Tobirama shrugged: "I'm not interested in women. If I revive like this, all the forbidden techniques I researched regarding Impure World Reincarnation would be useless..."
Obito: "Alright, just don't regret it..."
Might Guy also came over: "Please help me too... person I've never met before!"
Obito was speechless: "You should really start remembering people's faces."
Sakura: "Help me too."
Obito was speechless: "You're so young, why is this necessary..."
Sakura: "I have my own considerations. Please."
Minato: "Help me too, please..."
Obito was helpless: "You all... just make sure you've thought it through!"
Thus, except for Obito and a very few Impure World Reincarnation subjects, all other Impure World Reincarnation subjects were revived!
Ashura, reborn, looked toward the end with complex emotions: "Brother..."
Whoosh! The golden light rain finished falling, but Yama's great mouth still hadn't closed!
Gurgle gurgle...!
A mass of blood-colored light condensed in its mouth!
The Rinnegan of the Yama statue actually glanced toward Naruto!
"!" Naruto's body suddenly shook: "What's happening? I, I can't move?"
Whoosh!
That light mass transformed into a blood-colored stream of light, descending above Naruto's head!
Naruto was suddenly alarmed: Hey, could this be karma for my playing with life, death, and space-time!?
But what he feared didn't happen.
Kushina's chakra sealed within, the thoughtform that Naruto had nurtured in his body, separated from Naruto's chakra and merged into that blood-colored mass!
Then, that blood light left Naruto and transformed into Kushina's figure not far away!
Naruto's pupils shook violently: "This..."
Indra's hands maintaining the seal trembled violently. The six tomoe in his eyes had disappeared, and his black hair had turned desolate white.
"This is... specially customized for you, as a reward for defeating me!"
Indra lowered his seal-forming hands. Bang! The Yama statue disappeared in white smoke!
"..." Naruto looked with complex emotions at Indra, whose life was like a candle in the wind. He felt guilt for the first time in a long while, and this guilt would accompany him for a long time to come, spurring him on and making him think about problems more comprehensively and maturely.
At death's door, Ashura came before Indra.
Indra's gaze was unfocused, yet he knew who had come: "Ashura."
After crouching down, Ashura grasped Indra's cold hands with both of his, saying sadly: "Brother, when we were alive, we fought for a lifetime. After death, our chakra continuously reincarnated, extending the fight for a thousand years. It's time to put an end to it..."
"Brother, can you... call me 'little brother' once more, like when we were small?"
Under Ashura's expectant gaze.
"..." Indra slowly raised his hand. He pried open Ashura's fingers gripping his hand, one by one, pushing his hand aside.
"..." Ashura's expression darkened.
Indra said in a thread-like voice: "Ashura, a broken mirror, even when repaired, will still reflect cracks all over. The grudges between us can't be settled with one sentence. There's really no need to force a happy ending..."
"At this point, I can only say you won, your reincarnation won. And as the loser, after cleaning up the aftermath, I should naturally exit the stage. You and your ninshū will go further, but our brotherly bond ended a thousand years ago..."
"Sigh." Ashura sighed and lowered his head.
Indra left his final words: "Uzumaki Naruto, give my Rinnegan to the other reincarnation of Ashura. His Wood Release potential is far from fully developed. These ocular techniques are perfect for him to inherit. I'm leaving. My soul will completely dissipate. You, as the savior, must face... everything!"
Indra closed his eyes forever.
Uzumaki Naruto crouched down, placing his hand on Indra's eyelids, saying solemnly: "I will do as you wish, distant savior, Ōtsutsuki Indra..."
Whoosh!
At this moment... from Indra's horn that had been severed on the battlefield, a white figure rose!
It was none other than the Sage of Six Paths, Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo!
