*************
The ninja world can be seen as a large continent wrapped by oceans, dotted with islands of various sizes.
Among them, the Fire Country holds the best geographical location, though it was not the largest in area.
The Land of Earth, while mostly barren, was the largest country in terms of sheer size.
But today, this geographical knowledge common among the world residents, was about to be rewritten.
Suddenly, the entire ninja world felt the ground shake violently.
By the sea, those watching saw the already turbulent waters grow even more violent.
"What's happening?"
Struggling to maintain their footing, the Ninjas looked up at the sky in confusion.
After one war after another, the battlefield had shifted again, now reaching the borders where the Lands of Thunder, Fire, and Earth converged.
The coast was nearby, and huge waves hundreds of meters high could be seen surging from the ocean.
The Kages quickly led the alliance away from the coast, but the trembling ground could still be felt beneath their feet.
Hinata's eyes locked on Kaguya.
"Do you know what's going on?"
"A large-scale Planetary Devastation was launched..." Kaguya remarked, sensing the disturbance from the southwest.
As for who was responsible, she wasn't sure.
"Look over there!" Namikaze Minato pointed northwest, where a bright, dazzling light- almost like a new star-shone in the distance.
In the desolate wastelands of the Land of Earth, Colt and the old sage (Naruto and Sasuke) had flown ten thousand meters into the sky, breaking through the clouds.
The air around them churned with waves of chakra as a shockwave rippled through the heavens.
The way the Sage of Six Paths manipulated the powers of yin and yang far surpassed Naruto and Sasuke's capabilities.
His ninjutsu carried the natural order of things.
However, against Colt, who shattered all techniques with sheer force, such powers were meaningless.
If not for Naruto and Sasuke's physical resilience, they would be unrecognizable to their own mothers.
But Colt was beginning to grow frustrated.
If he couldn't handle things fairly, then it was time to flip the table.
His Nine Tomoe Rinnegan glowed menacingly as Colt stretched his hand toward the ground below.
"Six Paths: Planetary Devastation!"
Cracks began to form as a section of land near the coast of the Land of Earth broke away from the mainland.
Colt advanced through the sky, appearing beside Sasuke and Naruto like a ghost.
He pressed both palms against their stomachs simultaneously, and their expressions shifted in shock.
A terrifying force pulled them in, binding them together.
A loud rumble echoed across the battlefield.
The massive chunk of land and a few scattered islands that had just been torn from the continent were drawn toward Naruto and Sasuke, forming around them.
The overwhelming pressure compressed the earth and debris, creating an asteroid ten of kilometers wide, which continued to grow.
"If you won't show yourself, then enjoy a trip to the moon in Kaguya's place!" Colt said, clapping his hands as if he had just completed a trivial task.
As for Naruto and Sasuke inside? The ninja world would remember the sacrifice they made for peace.
'Hehe' Of course he was just joking, that old man was sure to make a move.
Meanwhile, deep within the seal, the Sage of Six Paths frowned.
Based on his communication with Naruto and Sasuke, wasn't Colt supposed to be their ally? Why had he suddenly turned against them, sealing them without hesitation?
He sighed.
The tide had turned, and the strength shared between Naruto and Sasuke was no longer enough to match Colt.
If his own consciousness was sealed, the entire world would descend into chaos.
His Six Tomoe Rinnegan flashed as he considered his next move.
Far away, the nine-tailed beasts sensed the disturbance.
Without warning, their bodies were pulled toward the battlefield at a high speed.
In no time, they arrived at the scene where Colt and the Sage of Six Paths had clashed.
At that moment, Colt stood still, observing the asteroid floating above.
He could feel the powerful chakra of the nine-tailed beasts approaching quickly.
It wasn't long before all nine arrived, their mouths gathering Tailed Beast Bombs.
Colt's expression turned strange.
"Since when could all of them fly?"
"Or maybe the old sage is behind this?"
A deafening roar shook the heavens as nine beams of light struck the Planetary Devastation in
unison, triggering a massive explosion.
The combined power of the nine-tailed beasts shattered the Six Paths-level sealing
technique from both inside and out.
As the debris fell away, Naruto and Sasuke, unconscious, were revealed.
Floating beside them was an old man in white robes, with long white hair and a staff in hand.
His face was serene, and the eye on his forehead gleamed.
"I thought you would hide in their bodies forever," Colt said, showing no surprise at the
appearance of Sage of Six Paths.
To break the seal, the yin and yang powers in Naruto and Sasuke alone weren't enough.
The Sage had to control the nine-tailed beasts himself.
Sitting cross-legged atop his nine Truth-Seeking Balls, the Sage of Six Paths floated Naruto
and Sasuke toward Colt, his Rinnegan glowing slightly.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"It is no simple task for my true form to manifest in the ninja world," the Sage began.
"I had hoped these two would be enough to defeat you and seal my mother, but it seems..."
He trailed off, helplessly.
For centuries, the world had unfolded under his control, and he could predict the
achievements of all its inhabitants.
But Colt had broken the mold repeatedly.
"Enough of the pleasantries," Colt interrupted a playful smile on his face.
"Let's get down to business..."
"If you defeat me, you can seal your mother. If you lose, then you'll just be a quiet observer in
the affairs of the world from now on."
The Sage of Six Paths raised a hand to interrupt him.
"Wait," he said, glancing at the nine-tailed beasts, whose eyes sparkled with excitement.
Kurama even seemed teary-eyed.
Seeing Kurama's genuine look, Colt couldn't help but think.
'He definitely deserves the most chakra.'
