It's said that during the time of the Sage of Six Paths, the ninja world was very peaceful.
It wasn't like now, with so much conflict and killing, it was because the Sage of Six Paths upheld peace and order.
Maybe God King could become an existence equal to the Sage of Six Paths, or even surpass him. It should be possible, because no matter how strong the Sage was, he was still someone from a very ancient time.
Now is a different era. Moreover, he felt God King might not be any weaker than the legendary Sage.
Maybe even stronger, because God King had fought very few times, and had never even used full strength. Probably because he hadn't met a strong enough opponent. He didn't even need to act much.
Looking at it this way, God King was also unfathomable.

In the following few days, the four people set out toward the Land of Earth. After crossing a forest path, the scenery suddenly changed.
What was once a lush, green forest began to turn into bare and desolate hills. A chill swept in.
Without a doubt, crossing ahead would be the Land of Earth.
Ryosuke was puzzled about what the people here lived on. Maybe, among the Five Great Nations, the Land of Fire's geography was the best.
There were mountains and sea, the terrain was fairly flat, and basically covered in vegetation, not so barren. No wonder every big country wanted to go to war with Konoha. So this was the reason.
The land was too good, it would naturally invite envy.
The other three people also had surprised looks on their faces. They had never been to the Land of Earth either, so this was naturally their first time seeing such scenery.
The Hidden Mist Village had also never gone to war with the Land of Earth. The Mist Village had mostly fought wars with the Leaf Village.
Of course, also with the powers on the surrounding islands.
The group continued along a small path. After walking for several hours, they were lucky to meet a local passerby.
After asking for directions, they quickly found a small town. They found a restaurant and sat down, preparing to rest a bit.
They ordered the Land of Earth's specialty dishes and had a satisfying meal. It was actually quite good.
After eating their fill, Ryosuke looked at Zabuza.
"Zabuza, next it's up to you to search for the two Jinchuriki of Iwagakure. We don't know whether they are outside or inside the village, so we will split up. I will go to Iwagakure. You'll be in charge of the other areas."
"The Jinchuriki of the Five-Tails is a tall man, wears a bamboo hat on his head, a red mask on his face, and a red suit of armor on his body."
"The Jinchuriki of the Four-Tails wears purple clothing and chest armor. His hair is tied in small bundles like a ponytail, and he has a big beard."
"With such distinct appearances, I believe you should be able to find some clues."
This time, collecting the Tailed Beasts would be more difficult because they didn't know the opponents' exact locations, so the search would take longer.
So Zabuza would have to gather information. Ryosuke still had a high opinion of Zabuza's ability to handle things.
Mist Village Jonin were skilled in assassination, and naturally skilled in gathering intelligence.
Zabuza clearly memorized the appearance details of the two Jinchuriki as described by God King. They were two very recognizable people.
One wore red armor and a red mask. The other wore purple clothes and chest armor, with hair tied in small bundles at the back.
"Yes, God King." Before he even finished speaking, his eyes widened.
Because he saw a ninja push open the door and walk in, a tall man wearing a red mask and red armor. Even taller than him.
He couldn't help but say, "God King, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki you mentioned seems to have come to this restaurant."
Ryosuke turned to look, indeed, it was.
Just after arriving in the Land of Earth, he already ran into one of the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, and the guy even came to him on his own.
However, he was not in a hurry to act. After all, this was a restaurant in a small town. He'd wait until the guy left.
The Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, also naturally noticed the four people looking at him. Three people in red clouds on black cloaks, wearing masks.
He immediately thought of that rumor. 'Red clouds on black cloaks, Uchiha Madara. Interesting, they actually came to the Land of Earth.'
Even if Uchiha Madara was strong, he had no thought of fleeing. On the contrary, he was very confident. His taijutsu was incredibly powerful. If the opponent really made a move, he actually wanted to face him.
But after waiting for a while, he noticed the group turned their heads and just sat quietly, making him puzzled, and he didn't act first.
Since they didn't make a move, he naturally didn't want to stir up trouble either. Instead, he ordered food from the boss and ate a satisfying meal.
Of course, while eating, he stayed alert inside. If they suddenly attacked, he would be able to react.
But the opponent still didn't act. Looks like he guessed wrong, they didn't come here to attack him.
Zabuza also stopped paying attention to him. Since God King didn't move, then there was no need for him to move either. Anyway, the guy wasn't going to get away.
Although he himself wasn't capable of handling such a monster, God King could easily take him down.
Soon after, Han finished eating and got ready to leave the town. After leaving Iwagakure, he had been living a wandering life. This place was just a small town he passed through.
Seeing this, Ryosuke also paid for the meal and followed directly. The other three followed as well.
They walked all the way to outside the village, continuing for quite a distance.
Han, walking in front, also stopped in his tracks. In his heart, he understood, these guys really were following him.
"You all really did follow me, suspected people of Uchiha Madara. Are you trying to make a move on me?"
Ryosuke was a little surprised too. "You already knew it was us, yet you didn't flee and calmly ate your meal, interesting."
Han instead burst out laughing. "You actually thought I would run? Looks like you don't know how powerful the Steam Ninja is."
Ryosuke thought about this title of his. He truly hadn't heard of it much. Then it must be a not-so-famous guy.
"Never really heard of it. Must not be much of a ninja."
Upon hearing that, Han furrowed his brows. "You really are extremely arrogant."
