Chapter 180 - Hagoromo's Purpose

Mito hadn't forgotten that Indra and Asura were the sons of the Sage of Six Paths, so who could possibly scheme against the sons of the Sage?

Mito thought of the legendary Sage of Six Paths.

But what was the purpose of him doing this, even going so far as to scheme against his own descendants?

Mito felt that the Sage of Six Paths seemed to have laid out many things.

The continuous reincarnation of Indra and Asura Chakra, the division of Ten-Tails into nine tailed beasts, and even the orchestration of the Senju clan and Uchiha clan's millennium-long feud, and even the wars of the entire Sengoku era.

If that were truly the case, then what exactly was the Sage of Six Paths scheming?

As Mito thought of this, she looked at Kazuki with renewed surprise and uncertainty. Don't misunderstand, it wasn't that Mito suspected Kazuki, but rather that she was worried about him.

She could now almost certainly conclude that Kazuki was, in all likelihood, the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths' Chakra. Otherwise, Kazuki couldn't possibly be so powerful, having even awakened the Sage of Six Paths' sage eyes.

Mito had some worries in her heart. What if all of this was the Sage of Six Paths' scheme?

For example, the Sage of Six Paths could take over Kazuki's body and make a comeback. All of this was something Mito had to face with caution.

Initially, she was unwilling to speculate about the Sage of Six Paths in such a way, after all, he was her ancestor.

But as she learned more, coupled with Kazuki's words, she increasingly felt that there was an unseen hand pushing things in the Ninja World.

What exactly was the Sage of Six Paths scheming?

However, very quickly, she sighed helplessly. If it were a strong person like Madara, she actually had a way to deal with him.

She hadn't not prepared a trump card for Madara, and in fact, she had always been waiting for Madara to come knocking, so that she could drag Madara to his death with her, letting this hidden danger of the Ninja World die together with her, or even completely resolve Madara.

What Hashirama failed to achieve back then, she would complete. But if Madara didn't actively come knocking, she couldn't do anything.

And as for her confronting the Sage of Six Paths, even Mito didn't have much confidence. Could she really contend with the Sage of Six Paths?

She wanted to help Kazuki, but she didn't have many ways.

Kazuki didn't know that his action of merely wanting to mention the existence of a mastermind, especially the issue of Black Zetsu, to Mito had caused her to suspect the Sage of Six Paths.

However, upon careful thought, the Sage of Six Paths indeed didn't seem entirely innocent. He hadn't handled the relationship between his two sons well.

Moreover, the reincarnation of Asura Chakra could occasionally get a power up, coincidentally suppressing the reincarnation of Indra Chakra. If there wasn't the Sage of Six Paths showing favoritism and cheating during this period, Kazuki would never believe it.

Clearly, Hagoromo was scheming something.

The planet's energy is limited. If energy is absorbed through Ten-Tails, no matter how special the Ninja World's planet is, there will eventually be a day when it runs dry.

But Hagoromo passed on the Chakra seeds to the world, allowing ordinary people the possibility of fiddling with Chakra, and those souls then went to the Pure Land.

If Hagoromo's goal was those souls possessing Chakra, then he probably regarded the entire Ninja World as a ranch.

The more fiercely the Ninja World fought, the happier Hagoromo would probably be, as it would help him more.

Of course, Kazuki didn't yet know his true objective and could only guard against him. However, with Enmasatsu, he wasn't afraid of Hagoromo, who had no physical body.

If Hagoromo's intentions were good, if he hoped to temper the strength of ninjas through war to combat the Ōtsutsuki, then it would be a bit unfair to resent Hagoromo.

After all, a peaceful environment genuinely makes it difficult for strong people to emerge.

Constantly disturbing the Ninja World through the reincarnations of Asura and Indra Chakra, thereby tempering the entire Ninja World, it doesn't seem impossible.

Just as Kazuki was about to say something, an Anbu rushed over and said, "Kazuki, Hokage-sama is calling you to the Hokage Building for a meeting."

"I understand, I'll be right there." Kazuki sighed faintly.

It seemed Hiruzen already knew what had happened on the Land of Water battlefield. After this, he might have to make a trip to the Land of Water battlefield.

He wondered if Homura and Fugaku had survived. He was somewhat looking forward to it.

Some guys who only know how to whine and complain, it's time to sweep them into the trash can.

"Grandma Mito, Hokage-sama is calling me, so I'll take my leave first."

Kazuki looked at Mito, who seemed to want to say something but hesitated, and after a long while, he continued, "Please take good care of yourself."

"Mm! Go! Konoha's matters are important. If Hiruzen calls you over, something important must have happened." Mito waved her hand.

She was a bit curious about what had happened. Before coming to see her, Kazuki had met Hiruzen, so why would he ask for Kazuki again?

Logically speaking, he should at least give Kazuki a few days to rest.

...

"Hiruzen, how could this happen?" Koharu's eyes held a hint of shock.

The intelligence just transmitted by the ninja hawk was simply too alarming.

"Could this be Kirigakure's retaliation against us?"

"It's not retaliation. Kazuki already warned me earlier that the Third Mizukage and Six-Tails were not in the village, they were on the battlefield at the front."

"We should be glad Kazuki destroyed Kirigakure, otherwise the situation would be even worse. Even if Kirigakure wants to attack us now, they will be powerless."

Hiruzen said decisively, "Moreover, this matter can only be unrelated to Kazuki, he seized the opportunity to destroy Kirigakure as much as possible."

"It seems you've already made your decision." Koharu looked at Hiruzen meaningfully, but she didn't voice any words of denial.

Still, the same old saying. If it were any other Uchiha, Koharu would absolutely object, but Kazuki was, after all, Kagami's son, and Tsunade's student, and he was acknowledged by Mito. No one was more legitimate than Kazuki.
