Minamikawa Yuu did not have much confidence in his own talent.
Ordinary Sage Mode was one thing; there were many examples of successful cultivation in the past and future, with the only difference being the degree of mastery.
But Six Paths Sage Mode—besides the Six Paths Sage himself, only Uzumaki Naruto had ever learned it.
Even the protagonist, Uzumaki Naruto, didn't learn Six Paths Sage Mode on his own; instead, he mastered it through a method similar to a direct transmission of power from the Six Paths Sage.
Under these circumstances, Minamikawa Yuu naturally couldn't harbor too many extravagant hopes.
Thus, without overthinking it, he went straight to the Great Toad Sage, intending to ask for a pure Sage inheritance.
The Great Toad Sage naturally agreed readily.
His attitude toward Minamikawa Yuu was very respectful; he didn't refuse any of Minamikawa Yuu's requests and agreed to them all directly.
In fact, there was nothing to refuse.
Both Hagoromo and Hamura had already learned the orthodox Sage Mode.
Even if the Great Toad Sage didn't provide it, Chen Ziming could still obtain it through Hagoromo and Hamura.
It was no big deal.
Asking him now was less of a consultation and more of a gesture of respect.
After their conversation ended, Minamikawa Yuu invited the Great Toad Sage to rest and formally entertained him.
The Great Toad Sage was somewhat overwhelmed by this hospitality.
This hospitality seemed ordinary, but its significance was actually extraordinary.
Given Minamikawa Yuu's status, he could represent the entire Land of Ancestors, and even the entire human world.
When Minamikawa Yuu personally received the Great Toad Sage in the name of the King of the Land of Ancestors, it meant that the human world had accepted the lineage of Mount Myōboku.
The significance of this was naturally unusual.
In the past, although the Mount Myōboku lineage was called a sacred land by some, most people still viewed them as mere demons, believing they were no different from other monsters.
But from this day forward, Mount Myōboku's reputation as a sacred land would clearly be solidified.
The Great Toad Sage knew this as well, which was why he was somewhat overwhelmed.
After entertaining the Great Toad Sage, Minamikawa Yuu returned to the palace and sought out Kaguya.
Since her battle with Hagoromo and Hamura that day, she had returned to the palace as agreed.
"Still haven't figured it out?"
Returning to the palace where Kaguya was, Minamikawa Yuu looked at Kaguya standing alone ahead, and his expression couldn't help but soften.
In the secluded garden, Kaguya stood alone, looking like a high and mighty goddess; her appearance was so unique and outstanding that it left a deep impression.
She had been standing there for what seemed like a long time.
It wasn't until she felt Minamikawa Yuu's arrival that she silently turned around, her gaze falling upon him.
Minamikawa Yuu stepped forward, took her into his arms, and then spoke softly: "I'm leaving..."
As the words fell, Kaguya's body in his arms seemed to tremble, and a wordless feeling arose.
Kaguya looked at Minamikawa Yuu, her eyes filled with a heavy sense of reluctance to let go.
For her, this was a feeling that was difficult to describe.
Since she descended to this world from the heavens, she had always been with Minamikawa Yuu, never having been separated for decades.
Now that Minamikawa Yuu was about to leave, her heart suddenly became complicated, and she didn't know what to say.
If it were an ordinary person, they might have reacted differently.
But she was Kaguya, after all; she didn't say much, only gazing quietly at Minamikawa Yuu.
"Can't you stay?"
After a long while, she finally spoke: "I don't want you to leave."
"I'm afraid not."
Minamikawa Yuu smiled. "There are things I still need to do, so I must leave for now."
"Then can you take me with you?"
Kaguya said, "I'll go with you."
Although the palace before her was magnificent and brilliant, if Minamikawa Yuu—the person closest to her—wasn't there, it would be as if it had lost its soul.
As for the Hagoromo Brothers, they had already broken her heart when they took the initiative to attack her earlier.
"I can't take you with me."
Minamikawa Yuu looked into Kaguya's eyes with an apologetic expression. "But I promise you, I will return as soon as possible; it won't be too long."
"Trust me, one day, I will come back for you."
"To you, that day might not be too far off."
To allow his main body to travel through worlds and return to this one, the points required would surely be massive.
Minamikawa Yuu wasn't sure how long it would take to gather them, but as long as he took it slow, he would be able to do it one day.
After all, as the one waiting, Kaguya's lifespan was nearly infinite.
As long as the two were willing to keep moving toward each other, there would eventually be a day when they truly met again.
Kaguya didn't speak, but sorrow showed in her eyes.
Facing Minamikawa Yuu, she didn't say anything more, only nodding silently and falling into silence.
In the days that followed, Minamikawa Yuu completely set aside everything he held and handed over the power of the Land of Ancestors to Hagoromo and Hamura.
Meanwhile, he accompanied Kaguya, traveling to various parts of the world.
Of course, they weren't alone; they also brought two children with them.
Those were Indra and Ashura.
Due to their previous confrontation, the mother-son relationship between the Hagoromo Brothers and Kaguya would still take a long time to mend.
But Indra and Ashura were still young, after all; it wasn't a bad idea to take advantage of their youth to cultivate their bond as grandmother and grandsons.
As it turned out, compared to the current Hagoromo and Hamura, Kaguya had a better impression of the Indra brothers.
Thanks to Minamikawa Yuu's efforts, their time together was fairly pleasant.
However, happy times are always fleeting.
Before they knew it, several months had passed.
When the prompt on the panel before him reached the fifty-year mark, Minamikawa Yuu knew his time was up.
"I'm leaving."
He whispered softly, smiling at Kaguya in front of him.
In the next moment, the world before him seemed to change.
The colors of the world were stripped away inch by inch, turning into black and white.
Minamikawa Yuu's essence was extracted, leaving and vanishing from this body, crossing the boundaries of worlds to return once more to his original body.
When he opened his eyes again, he was no longer in the familiar palace, but in another place.
Dilapidated houses appeared, giving Minamikawa Yuu a feeling that was both familiar and foreign.
This was his home in Konoha.
"I'm back..."
Standing where he was, Minamikawa Yuu sighed softly.
A strange sense of weakness emerged.
After leaving his previous body, he only felt that he was terrifyingly weak at this moment.
It was no wonder.
No matter how poor his previous body had been, it was still an adult's body, and having been nourished by Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's Kaguyas Seal Power, its physical fitness was not weak at all.
Whereas his current main body was merely an ordinary child less than seven years old; being physically weak was only natural.
Of course, that wasn't the most critical thing right now.
"Let's see what I've gained from this trip..."
He sighed in his heart and looked down at what was before him.
