Chapter 531: Asura and Indra
A piercingly cold winter wind swept across the frozen terrain. Intermittent sparks of invisible, atmospheric lightning seemed to violently leap back and forth tracking the deadlocked gaze locking Teuchi and the Sage of Six Paths into absolute focus—weaving a high-powered, atmospheric aesthetic perfectly capturing the essence of two fated, mortal enemies confronting their terminal destiny.
Ryo observed the intense staredown with a monumental, profound layer of absolute awkwardness, viscerally feeling as though his own presence had been rendered entirely redundant across the scene.
"A hidden danger, you say? Exactly what flavor of hidden danger maps out down this track?"
Teuchi raised his eyebrows in a subtle alignment: "Direct your inquiry straight toward his ears."
The Sage of Six Paths knit his brows into a narrow slit: "Exactly what precise anomaly are your vocal parameters pointing to?"
"Main body, do your internal cognitive loops harbor an intense urge to definitively parse exactly why on earth the Asura chakra parameter and the Indra chakra parameter systematically, relentlessly execute an eternal loop of reincarnation tracking across the mortal generations?" Teuchi articulated the prose with an exceptionally deliberate, measured cadence—emphasizing every single syllable to the absolute letter.
Ryo stood violently startled, his dual eyes weaving a rapid tracking block to audit Naruto and Sasuke's distant coordinates, subsequent to which his absolute focus aggressively locked back onto the Sage of Six Paths: "Are your words implying that a highly specific, underhanded structural failure node is permanently coded right inside those dual chakra repositories?!"
"They are explicitly deployed to operate under the absolute mantle of a strategic proxy medium," the Sage of Six Paths slowly and deliberately unraveled the unvarnished reality. "Provided my Mother ever successfully achieves a terminal resurrection under heaven, my absolute technical layout securely grants my focus the capacity to seamlessly channel and bestow my sovereign strength straight into the vessels housing the active reincarnations of Indra and Asura, empowering their lines to definitively re-seal Mother back into absolute oblivion!"
Teuchi let out a sharp, mocking laugh: "Your matrix genuinely operates as Kaguya's monumentally magnificent, filial son, doesn't it? The Pure Land, Indra, Asura—every single one of these catastrophic assets was meticulously calculated and prepared exclusively to execute an absolute sealing block targeting Kaguya. Engineering a relentless, obsessive campaign of exhaustive strategic planning, completely terrified of a timeline where your biological mother successfully reconstructs her life force."
The Sage of Six Paths subtly closed his dual eyes. A master-tier Sage's Staff appeared to smoothly leap straight out from an alternative spatial dimension, securely locking into his grip as he aggressively slammed its base against the dirt: "My internal parameters naturally harbor absolute zero desire to execute a secondary sealing block against my Mother; yet, evaluating the unvarnished reality of the cosmos, wasn't this entire, catastrophic trajectory entirely manufactured and driven by your very own underhanded execution?!"
"Perhaps," Teuchi shook his head with a smooth, deadpan cadence. "Under that framework, analyzing the operational variables—assuming Kaguya successfully achieves her terminal resurrection precisely across a chronological milestone where the contemporary reincarnations of Asura and Indra have completely failed to cultivate and ripen their absolute combat stats, rendering their matrices structurally incapable of successfully re-sealing Kaguya down the line... exactly what logistical maneuver maps out then?"
"To definitively safeguard the absolute perimeters of the shinobi world from sustaining a total, catastrophic destruction, the structural parameters naturally dictate that my personal presence is mandated to proactively step onto the battlefield to execute a terminal suppression!"
Teuchi let out a light, breezy chuckle: "Relying strictly on your current, heavily depleted strength tier? Do your internal calculations genuinely assume you command the raw capability to match my prowess? Let alone successfully sealing Kaguya's absolute matrix?"
The Sage of Six Paths plunged into a trace of profound, prolonged silence.
Ryo's cognitive processing dynamically surged, piecing the disparate intelligence nodes together into an absolute, airtight loop of profound realization. An astronomically dense, roaring torrent of chakra violently erupted straight out from his physical frame: "The absolute law of the cosmos dictates that strength seamlessly granted to an alternative vessel inherently retains the clearance to be violently clawed back. Old man Six Paths, I desperately pray the unvarnished reality doesn't map precisely to the catastrophic calculation my mind just revolved around?"
The Sage of Six Paths continuously maintained his absolute, deadpan silence.
Teuchi gave a firm nod of validation: "Flawlessly accurate, main body. Provided Kaguya logs a successful terminal resurrection, compounding the detail that Naruto and Sasuke completely fail to independently re-seal her matrix, Hagoromo's cognitive parameters dictate forcefully, aggressively extracting the Indra chakra and the Asura chakra straight out of their biological vessels! A master-tier maneuver deployed single-mindedly to retroactively restore a fraction of his lost strength, subsequently allowing his personal presence to manually launch the combat operations!"
"Negative, a catastrophic operational failure node of that magnitude is structurally almost completely impossible to manifest under the sun," the Sage of Six Paths shook his head to clarify.
Teuchi raised his eyebrows in a sharp, mocking alignment: "Isn't a scenario flawlessly mirroring that exact template successfully unfolding its active parameters right this exact micro-second? Relying strictly on Tenji's baseline combat output flatly leaves your matrix structurally incapable of securing a strategic win over my wing; exactly what operational maneuver does your judgment dictate you execute now?"
The Sage of Six Paths let out a soft, heavy sigh. Tracking straight from the distant horizon, a dual cascade of blinding crimson and brilliant blue luminous torrents violently erupted, launching a maximum-velocity sprint to violently leap straight toward his coordinates. Flawlessly synchronized alongside the energy displacement, Kushina and Itachi's frantic, horrified screams violently rippled across the distance. Ryo's heart parameters instantly plunged into absolute, freezing dread, his physical frame weaving an instantaneous spatial flash to hit a point-blank interception coordinate directly before the advancing energy torrents.
Yet, the absolute fraction of a second the dual luminous matrices collided against his frame, they smoothly and aggressively dispersed into an absolute scattered cloud, seamlessly bypassing his defensive blockade to aggressively surge and integrate straight inside the Sage of Six Paths' internal matrix—an anomalous energy transfer that completely flatly declined to be disrupted by either gravitational pull or repulsive barriers!
The singular Rinnegan anchored inside Tenji's eye socket—historically plundered straight from Madara's baseline—underwent a rapid, vertical evolutionary shift, mutating to cleanly map to a flawless, identical pair of six-tomoe Rinne Sharingan completely mirroring Ryo's aesthetic arrays! Concurrently, Tenji's raw physical constitution experienced a catastrophic, exponential enhancement, while his internal chakra reserves spiked to an astronomical, terrifying volume!
"You absolute bastard!"
Ryo instantly draped his absolute Sage Mode chakra cloak across his vessel, unleashing his dual football-sized Truth-Seeking Balls. Transforming the anomalies into a pair of rapidly spinning Wind-Fire Wheels, he aggressively sliced a highly lethal, terminal trajectory straight toward the Sage of Six Paths.
The Sage of Six Paths maintained an absolute, deadpan calm, horizontally rotating his Sage's Staff to execute a flawless defensive block. Sliding a solid two paces backward across the dirt from the kinetic impact, he successfully deflected the Wind-Fire Wheels clear of his vitals: "Ryo Uzumaki, your execution explicitly proves you genuinely, thoroughly lack the absolute capacity to continuously honor a verbal commitment..."
BOOOM!!!
Teuchi violently materialized point-blank directly behind the Sage's flank, unleashing an aggressive, catastrophic punch that aggressively smashed his physical framework deep into the subterranean dirt: "Naruto and Sasuke fundamentally lack the absolute operational requirement to continuously rely on an underhanded chakra repository that Hagoromo commands the clearance to violently extract at any given fraction of a second to successfully scale into premier powerhouses! Furthermore, assuming Kaguya successfully achieves a terminal resurrection, she will fundamentally never transition to operate under the mantle of an active enemy force! Throughout the duration of this calendar day, the Great Ancestor is structurally mandated to aggressively act on Kaguya's behalf to administer a severe, monumental educational thrashing to properly align an unfilial son of your caliber! Main body, your parameters... Mmm? Holy f*ck!"
Teuchi's facial complexion sustained a sharp, violent shift of absolute terror, instantly weaving a frantic Body Flicker to seek absolute refuge straight inside the Eight Trigrams pocket space. In a single, overlapping micro-second, an astronomical multitude of high-powered, world-ending attacks were violently unleashed by Ryo's hands—Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack, Tailed Beast Bombs, Truth-Seeking Wind-Fire Wheels... The diverse volleys violently scraped against one another, generating a blinding, retina-searing flash of catastrophic light as they carved a dead-straight, terminal trajectory straight toward the Sage of Six Paths!
The absolute micro-second the concentrated barrage touched down against the topsoil, absolute zero acoustic shockwaves were generated. The terrestrial landmass completely and silently evaporated into molecular nothingness beneath the blinding light, violently expanding its radius outward at a terrifying velocity, ultimately halting its absolute destruction mere paces away from the global juniors maintaining the perimeter encirclement.
The absolute fraction of a second the turbulent chaos placated back into relative tranquility, the absolute epicenter of the offensive blast had been cleanly cratered into a massive depression stretching past a solid two hundred meters in sheer depth. The Sage of Six Paths lay perfectly flat against the crater floor, slowly and grueling struggling to pull his torso upright.
Teuchi flashed his frame straight out from the pocket space: "Main body, exactly what exact flavor of absolute madness hijacked your cognitive processing?! Hagoromo... Mmm? Absolute zero structural trauma?! His matrix actually commanded the absolute capacity to completely tank the aggregate kinetic output backing that cataclysmic barrage?!"
Ryo's facial expression was monumentally, thoroughly dark and twisted: "Are your sensory parameters genuinely failing to parse the anomaly?! Trace the metrics back a single micro-second—exactly what secondary asset did the Asura chakra violently tear straight out from Naruto's biological matrix during its extraction loop?!"
"...The Nine-Tails?!" Teuchi murmured in absolute, dazed realization, a look of unvarnished, blazing fury rapidly painting his features: "Hagoromo Otsutsuki! Your independent operational baseline is monumentally, thoroughly more despicable and bankrupt than my highest, absolute estimates!"
The Sage of Six Paths lifted his voice to deliver a resonant, booming broadcast: "Ryo Uzumaki constitutes an entity who fundamentally lacks the structural alignment to honor his verbal commitments; single-mindedly desiring to successfully neutralize your matrix inherently dictates structurally stalling his absolute velocity parameters! My personal focus was strategically cornered into deploying this underhanded, sub-optimal fallback measure! The absolute second your matrix is cleanly neutralized down to the letter, my presence shall comfortably extend any required volume of absolute apology to successfully placate Ryo Uzumaki's fury, and the Nine-Tails will concurrently be flawlessly returned straight to Naruto Uzumaki's possession!"
"Great-Great-Grandpa!" Kushina's frantic, agonizing scream rippled across the distant expanse.
Ryo took a deep, sweeping breath of air: "Teuchi, chart your course straight to their coordinates to securely anchor and sustain Naruto's biological life force parameters. Allocate my forces a strict ten-minute window; my personal presence shall completely and cleanly obliterate this utterly detestable bastard into absolute dust!"
"My... medical ninjutsu proficiency strictly scales to a minor level five. How about I simply deploy an emergency containment seal straight into Naruto's matrix, loosely mirroring the operational template Killer Bee historically endured?"
"Grand Elder!" A brilliant flash of golden light violently erupted, and Minato's physical frame cleanly materialized on location, "The Nine-Tails anchoring Naruto's internal matrix..."
Ryo aggressively ground his jaw parameters together: "My internal databases have already successfully parsed the data. Teuchi, you absolute bastard! Deploying an emergency containment seal explicitly forces Naruto to endure an exceptionally grueling layer of profound physical trauma, doesn't it? Continuously orchestrating unnecessary, chaotic drama—your execution is a flawless, magnificent showcase of a Shadow Clone's inherent, baseline structural mandate to manufacture an absolute uproar! Furthermore, Six Paths, your entity operates as a certified bastard as well! The absolute micro-second I successfully stabilize Naruto's critical condition, the Old Ancestor shall meticulously bind the dual of your vessels together to administer a severe, unified physical thrashing!"
"Minato, let us mobilize!"
The Sage of Six Paths slowly and gracefully levitated his physical framework straight into the high-altitude air blocks: "My personal focus has continuously executed an exhaustive, centuries-long global tracking grid to hunt down the specific anomaly who covertly guided Mother's catastrophic rampage. Let us systematically conclude the absolute entirety of our ancestral grudges and blood feuds across the duration of this specific calendar day!"
Teuchi took a deep, sweeping breath of air: "Do your internal cognitive loops genuinely assume that securing a single, supplementary Nine-Tails grants your matrix the absolute technical clearance to successfully lock down a strategic win over my wing? Emmm, auditing the metrics... it highly probable explicitly translates to a reality where I genuinely lack the capacity to beat you... Holy f*ck, it explicitly appears my hands are structurally mandated to reclaim my ancient, glorious moniker once again! Launch your advance!"
Flanking the alternative sector, Ryo knelt down before Naruto's deeply unconscious, comatose physical frame, smoothly and expertly weaving his hands to unleash his medical ninjutsu arrays. Drawing heavily upon his historical clinical experience stabilizing Killer Bee's parameters, he seamlessly deployed an identical treatment protocol to manage Naruto's failing life force.
"Nagato, execute a rapid return transit block straight back to the Land of Whirlpools to extract a dense repository of high-potency nutritional supplements."
"Well!"
"Minato, chart a maximum-velocity sprint straight to hit the Land of Rain; retrieve Kisame's Samehada and escort the blade straight to these coordinates."
Minato gave a highly resonant, firm nod, cleanly vanishing from his coordinate block.
"Great-Great-Grandpa, exactly what precise catastrophic anomaly struck the field? The specific entity currently engaged in a high-powered combat loop against your alternative self... didn't your absolute forces already successfully execute a terminal capture targeting his vessel?" Kushina inquired frantically.
Ryo smoothly shook his head to clarify: "Kushina, completely dismantle your internal anxiety. Even though his external facial aesthetics remain entirely unchanged, his sovereign soul matrix has already undergone a complete, structural swap. Currently, that specific vessel is explicitly piloted under the mantle of the Sage of Six Paths. The absolute fraction of a second Naruto's critical condition achieves absolute stability, my personal presence shall comprehensively capture his matrix; your hands will be seamlessly granted full clearance to administer any desired volume of physical slaps—exclusively target his face!"
Continuously sustaining the active deployment of his medical ninjutsu, Ryo delivered a comprehensive informational brief detailing the intricate reincarnation loop connecting the Asura and Indra chakra parameters to the gathered juniors.
"The structural failure explicitly maps to my own execution. My internal cognitive loops should have maintained an absolute layer of preventative alert—tracking straight from the specific milestone where Sasuke's dual eyes successfully evolved into the Eternal Mangekyō completely devoid of a logical, structural catalyst! Sasuke, exactly how are your unvarnished metabolic metrics responding?"
Sasuke's facial complexion was similarly monumentally, thoroughly dark and unoptimized: "My matrix has completely lost the technical capacity to toggle the Mangekyō Sharingan parameters into active status..."
Ryo pursed his lips to a subtle degree: "Your parameters should ironically maintain a trace of gratitude that his execution refrained from violently extracting the absolute entirety of your ocular prowess, sparing your vessel from sustaining a total, irreversible loss of vision. My personal presence shall meticulously deploy a pair of massive, sandbag-sized fists to formally articulate my gratitude for that specific mercy!"
