Chapter 406 Otsutsuki Hamura is captured
The Sage of Six Paths hovered in mid-air, a fleeting, almost imperceptible weariness flashing across his eyes.
"Damn it, these two are so difficult to deal with together. If this continues, my Sage Chakra won't last much longer."
He controls a giant Susanoo that is over two thousand meters tall. The amount of chakra consumed by a Susanoo of this size is terrifying.
By now, the Sage of Six Paths had consumed most of the natural energy he had secretly absorbed and accumulated at Mount Myōboku, and his chakra reserves were also being depleted at an alarming rate.
"We must end this battle as soon as possible, otherwise..." A terrible thought flashed through his mind, making his heart tighten.
On the battlefield below, Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju were launching a fierce attack together. The ground beneath their feet had already been crushed, forming a crater tens of meters in diameter.
"Hashirama, to the left! His Susanoo's light is fading; it's time to unleash its power!"
Madara Uchiha's voice carried a hint of excitement as he manipulated the left arm of the Armored Thousand-Armed Asura, his giant fist slamming towards the left side of the Sage of Six Paths with a whistling sound.
The two controlled the Mighty Armor - Thousand Hands Asura with perfect coordination. Every swing carried a world-destroying power, causing subtle distortions in the space where it passed, carving deep trenches into the ground, and causing the mountains on both sides to break apart and fly into the air.
Hashirama Senju replied in a deep voice, "Understood, Madara! I will find an opportunity to use the wooden dragon to restrain his movements!"
After he finished speaking, several thick wooden dragons emerged from the ground, their bodies wrapped in dense Sage Chakra, and began to coil around the limbs of the giant Susanoo.
Faced with the combined attack of two legendary ninjas, a fierce glint flashed in the Sage of Six Paths' eyes: "You think you can shake my Susanoo?" he shouted coldly.
He then manipulated the giant Susanoo, raising only one giant hand to firmly block the giant fist of the Thousand-Armed Shura.
The moment their fists and palms collided, a terrifying shockwave spread outwards. Centered on the point of impact, the ground instantly collapsed, forming a deep crater hundreds of meters in diameter and tens of meters deep. Debris flew like cannonballs, crashing into the surrounding rocks with a dull thud.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Sage of Six Paths unleashed his power, and Susanoo's giant hand pushed forward, forcing the Mighty Armored Thousand-Armed Asura back half a step.
At the same time, he gathered chakra in his other hand, transforming it into a pale golden giant sword hundreds of meters long. With a sharp whooshing sound, it swept out and forcefully cut the entangling wooden dragon in half. The wooden dragon let out a mournful cry and then disintegrated into wood chips.
The greatsword, still brimming with momentum, slammed into the armor of the Mighty Thousand-Handed Asura, knocking him back several steps. The giant blade dragged a long trench in the ground, sparks flying everywhere, and the rocks were scorched red from the friction.
The combat experience and foundation accumulated over a thousand years were on full display at this moment.
The Sage of Six Paths' every move was precise and ruthless, anticipating every attack from Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, firmly blocking their combined assault.
He still maintained a composed demeanor as if he were in control of the situation, but only he knew how strained that composure was.
The Sage of Six Paths glanced at Kaguya Otsutsuki, who stood indifferently in the sky, and inwardly cried out, "If this stalemate continues, it will be extremely dangerous. We should think about our escape route!"
Knowing that he had no chance of winning and that continuing to fight would only lead to him being captured alive after the two exhausted his chakra, he immediately had the idea of escaping.
To avoid arousing their suspicion, he deliberately intensified his attack, unleashing the giant fist of Susanoo once more, forcing Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju to defend with all their might.
"If we can delay for just a little longer, we can use space-time ninjutsu to escape this battlefield."
He kept a close eye on their movements, searching for the perfect moment to unleash his ninjutsu.
Just as the Sage of Six Paths was about to unleash his space-time ninjutsu, Kaguya Otsutsuki, who had been standing indifferently in the sky, finally made a move.
The Sharingan with nine tomoe on her forehead was activated, radiating a suffocatingly powerful aura.
The next second, three strange spatial rifts appeared out of thin air, appearing at the feet of the Sage of Six Paths, Madara Uchiha, and Hashirama Senju respectively.
"Yomi Hirazan"
"Oh no! It's Mother who made the move!" The Sage of Six Paths was the first to react, his expression changing drastically.
Before the three could react, a powerful spatial suction force surged out from the rift, pulling them tightly like an invisible giant hand.
Soon, the three were instantly swallowed up by the spatial rift, which then closed.
All that remained was a devastated ground, with collapsed craters, broken ancient trees, and ripped mountains—everywhere testifying to the earth-shattering battle that had just taken place.
The three were transferred to a special space.
Here, everything was in chaos. There was no sky or earth, no sun, moon, or stars. All around was endless darkness and nothingness. The air was filled with oppressive energy fluctuations, making it hard to breathe, as if even one's soul was about to be swallowed up by this oppressive feeling.
The Sage of Six Paths had just regained his footing when he couldn't help coughing, a trickle of blood escaping from the corner of his mouth: "Mother..."
Madara Uchiha cautiously looked around and said in a deep voice, "Where is this? The spatial fluctuations are strange, and our chakra seems to be suppressed."
Hashirama Senju nodded, his expression grave: "That's right, the energy field here is very special. I'm afraid we can't leave using space-time ninjutsu."
This space is subject to multiple restrictions, like an airtight prison.
Without the permission of the Uchiha Triumphs and Kaguya Otsutsuki, those trapped within cannot use summoning techniques or any space-time teleportation ninjutsu. Even if they die, their souls will be imprisoned here forever, unable to reincarnate and never be freed.
The Sage of Six Paths felt a chill in his heart. He tried to mobilize his chakra to activate a ninjutsu, but found that the chakra flow within his body was abnormally slow, as if he were stuck in a quagmire.
"Damn it! This is a cage prepared specifically for me!"
Meanwhile, on another battlefield at Mount Myoboku, the battle was also entering a fierce stage.
The scene here was equally horrific. The ground was slashed with deep grooves by the sword light, rocks crumbled into powder, and most of the surrounding mountains were sheared off, revealing jagged rock faces.
Hamura Ōtsutsuki brandished his longsword, unleashing a series of sharp sword lights. Each strike carried the domineering power of the Tenseigan. Wherever the sword light passed, the air was torn apart, and the ground was carved with trenches hundreds of feet deep.
"You two dare to stop me?" Otsutsuki Hamura's eyes were full of disdain. With a flick of his longsword, he blocked Hinata Hyuga's Gentle Fist attack.
Hinata Hyuga activated her Tenseigan: "Your chakra, while powerful, is not invincible!"
She nimbly dodged the sword flashes while simultaneously using her gentle fists to precisely attack Otsutsuki Hamura's chakra points, attempting to disrupt his chakra flow.
Each attack carried a subtle fluctuation of chakra, causing Hamura Otsutsuki to pause slightly.
Black Zetsu, relying on his unpredictable movements and ability to teleport, continuously launched surprise attacks from the sides.
"Hamura Otsutsuki, your opponent is us!"
His chilling voice rang out as he thrust the chakra blade in his hand toward Hamura Otsutsuki's back.
Even so, Otsutsuki Hamura still held the upper hand thanks to his profound foundation. He dodged Uchiha Kakuzo's attack by sidestepping, and with a backhand swing of his longsword, he forced both of them to retreat. Just as he was about to launch a fatal blow, and his longsword gathered a dazzling light, he suddenly caught a glimpse of his elder brother, the Sage of Six Paths, vanishing into thin air.
Hamura Ōtsutsuki's pupils suddenly contracted, a surge of intense unease and anxiety welling up within him: "Brother!"
"Black Zetsu, he's distracted!" Hinata Hyuga was overjoyed and seized the opportunity to launch an attack, her Gentle Fist striking Hamura Otsutsuki's shoulder hard.
Hamura Otsutsuki winced in pain but paid no heed. He instinctively tried to track the Sage of Six Paths' aura, but no matter how he tried, he couldn't detect the slightest fluctuation.
"Where did my brother go? Could it be...?"
A terrifying thought surfaced in his mind, chilling him to the bone. His attacks slowed, and he was slashed on the arm by Uchiha Kakuzoku's chakra blade, blood gushing out instantly.
Seeing this, Uchiha Mitsunori, who had been silently observing the battle, no longer hesitated and thought to himself, "Now is the time!"
He activated spatial teleportation, his figure transforming into a golden streak of light, instantly appearing behind Otsutsuki Hamura. His movements were so fast that even the air was filled with golden afterimages.
Hinata Hyuga and Kazetsu Uchiha, seeing this, quickly retreated, making room for the Uchiha Mitsuru to attack.
Uchiha Mitsuhō rapidly formed hand seals, his fingers flashing like lightning, creating afterimages that intertwined into a golden light curtain in front of him.
"Hamura Otsutsuki, your farce must end! Six Paths, Sixty-Four Hexagrams Seal!"
Golden sealing runes surged from his palm, quickly wrapping around Otsutsuki Hamura's limbs and torso.
Wherever the rune passed, Hamura Otsutsuki's chakra was instantly sealed, the light of his Tenseigan dimmed, and the wound on his arm stopped bleeding.
Hamura Otsutsuki was startled and tried to mobilize his chakra to break free, but found that the chakra in his body was frozen and could not flow at all.
Deprived of chakra support, Hamura Otsutsuki went limp, and the longsword in his hand clattered to the ground with a crisp sound that was particularly jarring in the silent battlefield. He could no longer maintain his fighting stance.
"No! Impossible! You dare seal me away? My brother will never let you get away with this!"
Uchiha Mitsunaga lifted him up expressionlessly, as if he were an ant, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever: "Even the Sage of Six Paths can't protect himself, you should worry about yourself."
Subsequently, the Uchiha Sanfeng reopened the spatial passage. The passage was pitch black inside, exuding a chilling aura, and connected to the special prison on the ancestral star.
The moment the passage closed, the angry roars and resentful curses gradually dissipated into the air.
The area around the battlefield was a scene of devastation, with broken trees, collapsed ground, and scattered rocks all bearing witness to the fierce battle that had just taken place.
After dealing with Hamura Otsutsuki, the three peaks of the Uchiha clan turned to look at Minato Namikaze and Naruto on the mountaintop, as well as the three sages from the three holy lands high in the distance.
The rocks on the mountaintop were also cracked by the aftershocks of the battle, and loose rocks kept rolling down the hillside.
He raised his hand and waved it, and several golden chakra threads gently wrapped around them. There was no sense of restraint; instead, they carried a gentle power.
"Gentlemen, join me in witnessing this final battle."
