Hagoromo's expression was complex. "That's right, you are indeed the reincarnation of Indra's chakra!"
Although Madara was only the reincarnation of Indra's chakra, in this world, chakra sometimes represented a person's essence better than the soul itself—in fact, at this moment, he was nothing more than wandering chakra lingering in the world after death!
Therefore, Hagoromo did not deny that Madara was the reincarnation of Indra's chakra.
As for the others on the battlefield, they were completely stunned.
Suddenly having another powerful enemy appear out of nowhere was already shocking enough, but now Madara was actually acknowledging someone as his father on the spot?
Wait—had Madara really just called him the Sage of Six Paths?
Hashirama and Tobirama were equally confused. Wasn't Madara's father Tajima Uchiha? Could it be that the Uchiha clan leader had unknowingly been made a cuckold?
Once he got the answer, Madara asked again, "Have you come here to stop me?"
Hagoromo gave a slight nod. "I cannot allow this world to head toward destruction!"
Madara loudly burst into mocking laughter. "During the Warring States Era, you ignored years of endless warfare. During the age of the ninja villages, you ignored three great wars. Now that I'm trying to eliminate war and suffering, suddenly you've decided to interfere!"
Hagoromo accepted the accusation calmly. "I'm not of this era. I'm merely an observer, with no right to interfere in your choices!"
Madara coldly questioned, "Then why have you come forward now?"
Hagoromo turned his gaze toward Isshiki. "Because you've been influenced by a malicious force, making choices that go against your true nature. I must correct this mistake!"
Isshiki gave an innocent look and pointed to himself. "Malicious force—you're not talking about me, are you?"
Hagoromo spoke solemnly, "This world is vast. If Lord Isshiki is willing to abandon certain reckless ideas, it might still be possible to accommodate two Otsutsuki clans."
Isshiki sneered. "You know our clan's nature too. Asking me to give up is like forcing a wolf to eat grass. Besides, his current decision wasn't even my doing. I won't take the blame for this!"
Hagoromo sighed. "If that's the case, then I'll have no choice but to eliminate you!"
Isshiki narrowed his eyes, scanning over Naruto and Sasuke before laughing. "So you've actually distributed your power to these two kids! In your current state, you no longer have the authority to speak such big words in front of me!"
His power had grown, while Hagoromo's had weakened. With this shift, defeating and absorbing Hagoromo was now possible.
Realizing this, Isshiki felt even more relaxed and couldn't resist mocking further, "Focus your strength to defeat me first, and then stop Madara—that's the most logical choice!"
But Hagoromo recalled his previous conversation with Seiki—their true enemy wasn't within the shinobi no sekai, but rather in the distant stars above!
Considering future Otsutsuki visitors who might secretly investigate, and to avoid scaring them away, he needed to create the illusion that he and Isshiki would destroy each other!
Therefore, distributing part of his power had been necessary!
Naturally, this action wasn't without risks. To fool Isshiki, the remaining power he had couldn't significantly surpass Isshiki's.
He couldn't say that out loud, so Hagoromo simply said, "If the world is destroyed, what use would there be in my victory over you?"
"At the very least, before I defeat you, I'll entrust this world's fate into their hands!"
Hearing this, Isshiki laughed, "Haha, then I should thank you instead! Thank you for delivering this entire world intact into my hands!"
Hagoromo remained unmoved, "Since you don't want to destroy this world immediately, then fine, let's fight in outer space!"
Isshiki smiled, "Perfect, I don't want these monkeys watching us either!"
With that, the two blasted upward like rockets, vanishing into the sky.
After they left, Madara calmly turned his gaze toward Naruto and Sasuke, "Unexpectedly, two insignificant worms I overlooked have become the biggest variables in this war!"
Sasuke retorted sharply, "Then you'd better be careful, worms might just turn into dragons if you're not paying attention!"
"I'll crush it before it becomes a dragon!" Madara declared, then created countless black coffins out of thin air, hurling them all toward Sasuke's location.
Sasuke stepped on a hoverboard made from Truth-Seeking Balls, gliding like someone riding a sword, weaving through the swarm of black coffins until he reached Madara's side and immediately launched a Cursed Seal: Chidori Sharp Spear!
Naruto flew after him and launched his own attack simultaneously, "Take this too—Sage Art: Big Ball Rasengan!"
Madara naturally didn't stay put waiting to be hit, but the moment he flew sideways, his vision blurred and he inexplicably returned to his original spot. He was pierced by an attack before another blast sent him flying!
"Space-time abilities?" Madara stabilized himself midair, covering his chest while asking in shock.
Sasuke replied coolly, "Dojutsu—Amenotejikara!"
"The exclusive Dojutsu of the Rinnegan?" Madara inwardly felt astonished yet helpless. If his signature Dojutsu was an advanced version of Clone Jutsu, then Sasuke's was an advanced version of Substitution Jutsu.
What, is that other brat going to pull out an upgraded Transformation Jutsu next?
"So powerful! No wonder you're Sasuke!" Naruto inwardly praised, unwilling to fall behind as he unleashed his own signature Ninjutsu, "Ha! Take my Harem Jutsu!"
Surrounded by a swarm of curvy, naked beauties, Naruko secretly circled behind Madara, preparing to use an Explosive Tag up his backside—one thousand years of death!
However, before she could get close, she was kicked away by Madara.
Naruto transformed back to normal, shocked at Madara, "So strong! This unshakable will surpasses even the Pervert Sage and Master Jiraiya!"
"Just this much?" Madara silently chuckled. Which powerful ninja couldn't withstand such temptation?
Sasuke narrowed his eyes and flew to Naruto's ear, whispering something.
"Huh? Wait, are we seriously doing this?"
"Just try it! After all, you don't care about embarrassment anyway!"
"Fine, Sasuke, get ready to attack!" Naruto resolutely flew upward. "Madara, prepare yourself for my Reverse Harem Jutsu!"
Immediately, dozens of naked Hashiramas surrounded Madara, striking seductive poses before him.
Madara instantly widened his eyes, loudly rebuking, "Disgusting! Filthy! Perverted!"
Even so, his eyes clearly hadn't shifted elsewhere, gazing intently with a critical look!
Witnessing this, Sasuke seized the opportunity, activating Susanoo, wielding a large katana, and swung downward fiercely at Madara!
Struck by this unstoppable blade, Madara was cleaved into the ground, creating a massive fissure across several kilometers on the battlefield!
The Allied Forces, who had initially lamented the decline of morality, were all deeply shocked by this single slash. Had Sasuke become this powerful?
Amenotejikara and the combined attacks might have looked flashy before, but now they paled in comparison. This slash finally made them realize just how much things had changed!
Just then, the deep earth began to tremble violently. A surge of aura burst out—sending chills down everyone's spines!
"What's happening? Did Madara finally snap?"
"No, the aura feels similar but slightly different!"
Hagoromo had already told Sasuke and Naruto everything, so they immediately knew what was happening. Their faces turned pale.
"Did Kaguya take over Madara's body in a fit of rage and humiliation? They hadn't even had the chance to seal Madara with Yin-Yang chakra yet!"
They exchanged a glance. "We're toast. Looks like we've gone and messed with something way bigger than us!"
From sealing Madara to sealing Kaguya—the difficulty just spiked!
