*************
The atmosphere in the air became tense.
Everyone's eyes widened as they stared at Colt in shock.
"Can he actually live forever?" they wondered.
Colt maintained a shy smile.
"My bloodline limit is a bit special. The energy constantly replenishes my vitality."
"Not only can I live forever, but those around me can also do so."
"Really?" Tsunade was overjoyed.
"I was wondering why my cell activity increased after you treated me."
She didn't need to maintain her illusion to appear young after he had treated her.
"At first, I thought it was the result of the [Wood Style], but I didn't expect your bloodline limit to be this powerful!"
The Sage of Six Paths was silent.
He hadn't anticipated that Colt had such a trump card.
The eyes of the others began to gleam with desire.
Immortality.
A small white snake writhing in Colt's ninja pouch twitched even more intensely.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Orochimaru, concealed within the snake, never imagined the immortality he sought after for so long had already been realized by Colt.
"If only I had this ability, there would have been no need to concern myself with the Uchiha," he thought.
Shin and Mieko were also dumbfounded.
"Is our son really this powerful?"
"Even if you can live forever and keep Mother in check, her existence is still dangerous," Sasuke said, looking at Kaguya with a stern expression.
"She comes from a terrifying race that brought chakra to our world..." he continued.
The Sage of Six Paths followed up, explaining the secrets of the Ōtsutsuki clan.
Kaguya's presence was like a beacon, drawing the attention of the other Ōtsutsuki members.
Only by sealing her and minimizing her trace could they protect the ninja world.
When the Sage of Six Paths finished speaking, silence reigned.
The revelation of the Ōtsutsuki clan, a race originating at the Six Paths level, shocked
everyone.
Even Kaguya's eyes darkened, and she felt a wave of panic.
Thinking of the other Ōtsutsuki clan members, hiding and biding their time, Kaguya suddenly wanted to retreat to the moon.
Colt gently set her down on the ground, stepped forward, and faced Sasuke.
He spoke slowly but with certainty:
"As long as I'm here, the world is safe."
"Anyone who would dare to invade the ninja world will be dealt with swiftly."
The Sage of Six Paths sighed.
"Well, if I can't convince you with words, I'll have to test this strength you're so confident in."
In the next moment, an Amaterasu [Chidori] appeared in Sasuke's hand, while the [Truth- Seeking Balls] behind Naruto transformed into a staff that he held.
"Colt, since you claim you can protect this world, prove it to me."
Colt drew his sword, Kaminari, and quietly entered the Sage Mode, his face emotionless.
"I don't need to prove anything, but if you want a fight, I'll give you what you want." In an instant, Colt appeared before Naruto and slashed downward.
Naruto raised his staff to block the strike, while Sasuke aimed his [Chidori] at Colt's waist.
Colt shifted slightly, blocked with his elbow, grabbed Sasuke's arm, and threw him back with a resounding clap.
The figures of the three disappeared from sight, leaving only the sound of clashing weapons and booming impacts.
Only Kaguya could keep up with their movements.
Hinata, looking worried, stepped forward despite her fear.
"Kaguya-sama, will Colt be okay?"
Kaguya glanced at her and then looked toward the sky.
"I don't know. Hagoromo has grown much stronger, but Colt is also very powerful."
Though Kaguya was the ancestor of chakra, time has passed, and the Sage of Six Paths has become far stronger than when she was first sealed. She wasn't sure if she could beat him herself...
The onlookers below were in a daze.
They couldn't keep up with the battle-they could only hear the clashes, unable to tell who
was winning.
In the sky above, Colt swung his thunderous blade at Sasuke, while Naruto counterattacked with a spiraling [Truth-Seeking Ball].
The battle moved past a mere testing of each other's abilities.
The power of the Six Paths level was fully unleashed before the world for the first time.
The sky churned violently, clouds disbanding and reforming with every impact.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Mountains collapsed, and waterfalls reversed their flow.
"Crack!"
Lightning tore through the sky, and a Kirin emerged, roaring to the heavens.
Colt raised his hand, summoning lightning to temporarily paralyze Naruto, then used [Shinra
Tensei] to send Sasuke flying.
His expression turned grim.
The Sage of Six Paths was manipulating Sasuke and Naruto using his power of the Six Paths.
Colt was now fighting them, but in reality, he hadn't landed any significant blows on the Sage
himself.
"Tsk," It was frustrating.
The battlefield extended far beyond the Land of Lightning.
Each movement was felt across the nations-the Land of Fire, the Land of Earth, and even the
distant Land of Water.
The ground trembled, reshaped by every clash.
From [Water Style] creating rivers to [Fire Style] leveling mountains, the very world seemed
to be at war.
Even those who had just awoken from the [Infinite Tsukuyomi] scrambled for cover, terrified
of the devastation outside.
Bang!
Colt kicked Naruto, sending him crashing through two mountains.
He could swear he could hear Kushina yelling 'Colt, don't hit so hard'.
The Sage of Six Paths controlled Naruto, pulling him back to Sasuke.
Together, they formed a black spiraling shuriken crackling with lightning and hurled it at
Colt.
The strength of Colt surprised the Sage of Six Paths.
Even though he had defeated Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, the Sage hadn't expected Colt to match him
like this.
"After all, I'm borrowing others' bodies," the Sage thought to himself, frustrated.
Colt's wings of light flickered, a trace of annoyance in his eyes.
He had been holding back, afraid of seriously injuring Sasuke or Naruto.
But now, his patience was wearing thin.
"If you won't show yourself, I'll force you out."
Colt raised his right hand, clenching the air.
"[Six Paths: Planetary Devastation!]"
