The Sage Of Six Paths

"so... What do you think?" The 3rd hokage, well now he was going by Hiruzen Sarutobi, asked while looking at those behind her.

Hashirama, Tobirama, and Minato. These 3 were the former hokage of the hidden leaf, and now have been brought back to life. Hiruzen has caught them up to everything,

"I wish to meet this king..."Hashirmama said softly, he was truly moved by how the future had turned out. Is this not the closest this world can get to peace? Just looking at how people from different parts of the world lived together brought a smile to his face.

This made him want to meet Sora even more, so want if Sora destroyed the era he created. The main reason behind that was for peace, which he failed. If Sora could do what he couldn't, he would be happy to follow.

Everyone also nodded, they didn't get to see Sora, upon coming back to life, they were asleep for some time. They were too powerful, so their bodies needed time to rest.

following Hiruzen, they arrived at a battlefield where stood before a Zabuza, Sasuke, and a few other swordsmen who held swords in their hands. Sora calmly looked at them swinging down a wooden sword at a tree.

Without any charka or too much power, the wooden sword hit the trich tree, leaving behind a mark on the tree. but the wooden sword was damaged, causing Sora to shake his head.

"The way you look at the world would heavily shape your future. To be a swordsman, you need to know what type of sword best suits your character. even then, you need to put the way you use the sword to reflect yourself." Sora said calmly while grabbing a wooden sword and without any force, he swung down, yet the wooden sword phased through the tree.

"There is one way you can look at the world. the world is one long vibrating string if you swing just right, and with the right about of power, then anything can be cut through. all you need to do is listen, feel that rhyme, and cut." Sora said as the tree began to slowly slide down before it fell over. everyone looked at the smooth clean cut, leaving them all shocked

"Everything in this world tells you everything you need to know, of course, they don't outright yell at you on how to cut or whatever. instead, it's like a 6th sense. an instinct, of course, the stronger the sad thing is, the harder it is to feel." Sora said calmly, making Zabuza take a deep breath before a moment

"A true swordsman doesn't need a high-greed sword to cut down mountains, they only need a high-grade sword because it can withstand their full might. take time to sit down, clear your mind, and when you feel it, attack. until then, don't lessons would stop here." Sora said calmly, the lessons Sora was giving them were heaven-shaking.

these were things people in his verse took trillions of years to stumble upon naturally, yet Sora was yet teaching others to do such things. but Sora's words were right if one looks upon the world as if it's a string, then the possibility were endless.

even back on earth, people had a theory that if one hit the table many times, there was an extremely small chance that the atoms in your body might phase through the atoms within the table. although never proven true, cultivators hid such points of view and make it their reality, in doing so would come great power.

comprehending these vibrations is pretty much comprehending the universe, or in other words, comprehending the laws. these laws were like the lesser version of the Dao, laws are what make the world do the thing it does.

Knowledge is power, the more you know about your world, the greater the power you shall have at your fingertip. Of course, just comprehending a law wasn't enough, for a normal human would need to master a law if they wish to transcend their mortal bodies and become something like a god.

For mortals to go through, it's called enlightenment, which allows a mortal to go through huge transformations. of course, this was rare, and those who seek it have a less likely hood of gaining it.

Sora in his past life mastered many laws, by any he meant all of them. he was the best teacher, so much so that he could turn a pig into a powerhouse. it was no joke, one day a teacher from his verse challenged Sora. they had a few days to pick someone to teach, after which they would have to show off the progress

Sora not wanting to go too hard on him found the most common pig, and went on to teach the pig to become a powerhouse in a matter of a few days.

as for why Zabuza and the others were progressing slower than a pig, it was because Sora haven't mastered this world's laws. how could he when most of his attention was on understanding himself,

even if his attention was on mastering this world's laws, it was not so simple. firstly, the more laws you comprehend the harder it is to comprehend other laws, and secondly, with Sora limited to this planet how could he comprehend this world?

If Sora had mastered every law, those he brought back to life would not need to rest. they would be brought back to life at 100%, yet Sora's understanding of life wasn't to such a level.

"You should eat, avoiding wasting energy just because you look down upon this world food isn't health," Mei said as she brought over a tray of food, indeed Sora looked down upon the food of the Naruto world. but with complete control of his body and soul, he only had to eat a meal to last him far longer than anyone else.

"give it to them," Sora said calmly, making Mei pout slightly. She through an unhappy look towards Hashirama and the others, but she still did as Sora asked, and called out maids who quickly brought forth a table and some chairs.

"You are a genius to be able to so easily take my jutsu and improve them," Tobirama said seeing as everyone's attention was down to the food which smelled heaven, grown and evolved by Sora, the plants used were of the best grade

"That was nothing much, a jutsu is just a way of using chakra to mazie its usefulness. I simply needed to see many Jutsu to get a good understanding of this world chakra, so I can master it." Sora said making everyone who heard Sora's words eyebrow raise. What Sora pretty much just said was that he didn't need techniques as he mastered the use of chakra. yet he said it as if it was expected, Sora wasn't even trying to flex. this was small talk to him,

"What do you mean?" Tobirama asked with a raised eyebrow, to which Sora who was still in his teaching mode answered.

"If your mastery of chakra is high enough, then you would not need techniques. you can just will your chakra to do as you wish. of course, your understanding of said thing needs to be there, but once you understand you can pretty much do anything." Sora said calmly while pointing towards a wooden stick, which teleported into his hands.

"the flying thunder god is a good technique and all, but it has its limitations of needing one to mark a target before teleporting to it. understand space and time to a high enough level, and master chakra control and you can just will yourself to teleport somewhere or have something come to you." Sora said calmly shaking Tobirama who created that jutsu

"of course, there would be some stuff harder than others, their understanding would need to reach a greater level. but in the end, your knowledge is all you need. if not then techniques are needed to help." Sora said calmly, while the wooden sword disappeared, along with the memory of it.

Sora frowned slightly at this before he sighed softly. As he grew stronger, the control of his power grew harder. at the end of the day, Sora was in chaos, destruction was something he should be doing. with everything around him being so weak, just using his chakra caused things to disappear.

after all, he was chaos. his chakra would have a hint of chaos, of course, Sora could limit this, but that was like cutting off your arms. Sora understood this well, he even stood that with how weak this world was, he would soon end up destroying planets if his chakra were to leak out in the slightest.

in the cultivation world, everything is refined by Qi. Even in the lower realms, everything is heavier and more double. put a normal human from Earth in a mortal realm, and they would have to be careful as stepping on grass would be like stepping on blades, thats ignoring the gravity which is higher thanks to the Qi in the air and so on.

So, cultivation in the mortal stages of cultivation could destroy planets like the one Sora was on, it would be considered a weak planet back in the cultivation world. Itachi only being at the first stage of cultivation was already as strong as he was, yet he was still weaker than those beginning cultivation in the cultivation realm.

the differences were huge, but this was simply the differences between this verse and his verse. Sora of course was not bothered by this, Itachi and the others were weak, but in due time they would shine. after all, they had a good teacher.

"I wanted to know... why did you bring us back to life?" Hashirama asked after a moment of salience, his senses were sharp and he knew many people were rivaling his power or were stronger than him. so what was the point of bringing them back to life?

"Because I need talents like you. many things have been lost in the rival of time, one of such things is the Senju and Uchiha clan history." Sora said calmly before he explained their connection to the sage of six paths. leaving everyone shocked.

"The sage of Six Paths' mother wasn't of this planet, for you all, you can consider her the origin of chakra as chakra thats spread around this planet came to form her. In a way, the sage of six paths stole it, and give it to the world. but there are others like her with chakra, and others more powerful. the main reason the Sage of six paths and his brother fought her was that she was forming an army, fearing for something." Sora said calmly, leaving everyone quiet

"I plan to bring her back to life and get to the bottom of such information. I'm expecting the worst, so I'm going all out to strengthen this world. I brought world peace, but that doesn't mean those beyond this planet would respect this. a fool would sit back, not seeking more strength to protect the peace." Sora said calmly, leaving the 4 hokage quiet

"Then you have my support," Hashirama said while standing up, and lowering his head to the point it touched the table. Tobirama sighed for a moment before he followed his elder brother, followed by Minato. With everything they saw, how could they reject such a world that have been built? they would instead support it.

"By the way... where is Naruto?" Minato asked the 3rd hokage, whose lips twitched slightly remembering Naruto.

"He chose to stay back in the hidden leaf, he along with many other shinobi have formed their nations, with Naruto taking the lead," Sora said calmly, not bothered much by this subject, but Minato, on the other hand, was shocked

"No need to worry, I let him do as he wishes. so long as his actions don't go against my city, then we have no problem. By the way, Hashirama, Madara would be brought back to life. since he awakened the Rinnegan, he would be blind, so I will leave him in your care." Sora said calmly before walking off, with Mei following after him

"It's the chakra from all the 9 tail beast collected?" Sora asked calmly, to which Mei nodded slightly. Sora nodded before looking at the sky, towards the moon.

"how's things with the moon?" Sora asked calmly, to which Mei took a deep breath before explaining everything.

Why would Sora bother with the moon? well, because people were living there. The Moon was created by Hagoromo and his brother, Hamura, when they sealed their mother, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, with Six Paths — Chibaku Tensei. After the Moon's creation, Hamura took leadership of the Ōtsutsuki clan and settled on the Moon to guard the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path inside, Aka the crust of the 10 tails.

Hagoromo asked Hamura to monitor mankind, a task that was passed to the rest of the Ōtsutsuki when Hamura died. Over time, a civil war broke out between the main and branch families over ideologies, which drove Hamura's clan to near extinction and his message became misguided. if mankind was deemed unworthy, they were to be destroyed.

Centuries later, sometime before the Second Shinobi World War, Madara Uchiha summoned the Demonic Statue from the Moon with his Rinnegan, intent on using it to bring peace to the world. To achieve this goal, Madara came up with the Eye of the Moon Plan, wherein the Ten-Tails would be revived and its jinchūriki would cast the Infinite Tsukuyomi on the Moon, thereby ending all conflicts by trapping the world in a perpetual dream.

There were only two people who lived on the moon at the moment... well, 3 if you add Obito who went to talk with them.

"things are a bit complex, but they seem willing to submit if you are somehow capable of bringing back their ancestor," Mei said calmly, to which Sora nodded slightly. those guys died a few hundred years ago. Sora needed a few weeks for such a task,

"Also, Sasuke has reported that Naruto seems to be getting close to the 9-tail fox, and his strength in return is going. it seems to be related to his visit to Mount Myoboku where he learned Sage Mode... that reminds me, should we not take in the sage beast? their knowledge of natural energy could be useful." Mei said softly,

"What you say isn't a bad idea... the frog in Myoboku can see the future, that frog should be able to see the future better than I could," Sora said softly, before he looked at the sky, and began to read the stars while looking at the strings of fate.

"I see.. the Sage Of Six Paths," Sora said before his eyes glowed, seeing through space and time, Sora's eyes landed on the sage of six paths' soul, which floated within a unique space.

"Why are you breaking your own rules to help Naruto?" Sora asked calmly, the sage of six paths had died long ago. yet his soul remains, overlooking the world he had created, but Sora had to admit, he didn't expect this old man to act. he said he would never step in, and instead look at this world, so why was he breaking that rule to help Naruto

"... you are not a good person." the sage of six paths said these simple words, but it was all Sora needed to hear. the sage of six Paths must have been watching him, Sora was talented and smart, but he had no experience, he was unable to sense someone like the sage of six Paths watching him

But the sage of six paths was right, Sora was not a good person. he was simply using world peace to draw people to his side. if he was a good person, would he have used other vulnerabilities to make it easier for them to follow him? Gaara, Orochimaru, Itachi, and so on.

If Sora was a good person, would he have allowed Orochimaru to attack the hidden leaf? or allowed Gaara to cripple Lee, or push him into trying to kill Sasuke and so on? no, Sora was an arrogant man who saw this world as nothing more than a stepping stone in his path to conquer the world,

The Sage of Six Paths saw how Sora saw everything as if it was in the palm of his hands, using everyone, manipulating them, and not caring much as long as they are loyal. how many people died that day when Orochimaru attacked?

because of Sora making the 3rd hokage, more people died. the sage of six paths knew this as he watched Sora and heard him mumbling something along such lines, to save one person yet to have 50 people die to balance things out, and have no hint of reaction to such people, it made the Sage of six paths frown

it's not like Sora did it because he liked the 3rd hokage, no, he didn't as thanks for being so easy to control. if Sora lived millions of years in his past life, the sage of six paths could understand why Sora views other lives as nothing... but such a person was worse than someone like his mother, or Madara.

at least Kaguya knew the impact of her actions and was doing it for the sake of this world. Sora would let so many people die for what? it was like such innocent people, among them being children was worth nothing to him. To care so little, to just have no ripples in your heart seeing as people cry at the death of their loved one, to have the power to even bring them back, yet see their lives as a background character, not worth your attention... this was cold, and it scared him when he thought of what Sora could have done in his past life.

And he had reason to be scared, Sora was from a cultivation world. standing at the peak of the world, Sora reached the point he reached to have so many lifeforms fear him as a mortal thanks to his ruthlessness.

there was a saying, it's better to suffer in hell than to face and enrage Sora. this was because Sora knew the best way to send a message.

this verse was an easy mode to Sora, why on earth would a grown man go all out in a play around? yet, Sora would have never expected that he would have to send a message to the world so soon on his path, and within such a weak world at that.
