Ninja World Live Stream: My Pet Rabbit is Kaguya?!

All of this was the result of the foolish actions of his dumb disciples.

That's why—

Tobirama Senju had always maintained a very clear stance.

So when he realized that the Sage of Six Paths might be targeting Kitahara Kaede, he immediately had everyone shut up and refused to provide any help to the Sage.

[Filial Son - Black Zetsu]: But… didn't the Sage of Six Paths die? Why is he still showing up…

[Filial Son - Black Zetsu]: Wait a minute!!

Suddenly, Black Zetsu realized a major problem!

Now that Uchiha Madara had sliced the moon open, it meant the seal on Lady Kaguya had also been broken.

Although it turned out that the little bunny beside Kitahara Kaede was actually Lady Kaguya's true body…

Still, with the seal broken and the Sage of Six Paths reappearing—It meant that guy had definitely left behind some kind of contingency.

Then…

He went looking for Senju Hashirama, because he was the previous reincarnation of Asura's chakra.

In that case…

Not good!

That meant—

That Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo, that guy, really hasn't learned a damn thing after a thousand years!

He's still trying to seal away Lady Kaguya again.

The reason he's wary of Kitahara Kaede, or rather doesn't trust him, is because…

He's already realized Lady Kaguya is right beside Kitahara Kaede!

So no matter how you try to sway him—it's useless!

[Beep! Filial Son - Black Zetsu has gone offline]

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Huh? Why did Mr. Zetsu suddenly log off in shock?

[Tobirama Senju]: Who knows.

[Tobirama Senju]: …

[Future Mizukage - Mei Terumi]: But honestly, I was surprised by how the Sage of Six Paths behaved after joining the group chat.

[Future Mizukage - Mei Terumi]: I thought he was here to help empower the younger generation.

[Future Mizukage - Mei Terumi]: But he ended up being labeled an unfilial son by the system.

[Future Mizukage - Mei Terumi]: And then… the small group's livestream was even terminated.

[Tobirama Senju]: I thought the same.

[Tobirama Senju]: After all, this is Konoha's private chat group. Maybe the system detected that the Sage was targeting Kitahara Kaede, so it deliberately shut off the broadcast.

[Cowardly Old Man - Ōnoki]: …

The Second Tsuchikage Mu and Ōnoki both wanted to say: "This isn't Konoha's private group," but…

At times like this, there was no denying Konoha's sheer influence.

And Mei Terumi, the Mizukage, had apparently been charmed into standing on Konoha's side after failing to sway Kitahara Kaede.

It was honestly… a bit ridiculous.

But for Iwagakure to preserve themselves, they had no choice but to keep their heads down.

Unless Konoha collapsed.

But at this point, that hope was more unrealistic than winning the lottery.

[Kakashi Hatake]: So the main focus now is to inform Kaede-kun that the Sage of Six Paths is trying to target him, right?

[Tobirama Senju]: Hmm… I'll go find him now.

[Tobirama Senju]: Wait a second—Kakashi, aren't you still in his office?

[Kakashi Hatake]: Uh… I'll tell him immediately.

[Kakashi Hatake has gone offline]

[Tobirama Senju]: …

[One-Tail - Shukaku]: …

[One-Tail - Shukaku]: …@Stupid Fox

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: Don't get involved.

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: You've got a new master now.

[One-Tail - Shukaku]: …

[One-Tail - Shukaku]: I know… I just didn't expect you to be on Konoha's side.

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: …

[One-Tail - Shukaku]: Back then you were the one who clung most tightly to the Sage of Six Paths.

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: Hah… he abandoned me for a thousand years.

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: And now… this is how we meet again.

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: The Sage of Six Paths owes every Tailed Beast an explanation.

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: …So the Tailed Beasts were originally free spirits expected to live alongside humans?

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: …And then we—me and Madara—caught them all?

[Tobirama Senju]: …Big bro, maybe say a little less about the Tailed Beasts.

[Tobirama Senju]: And don't blame yourself again either. The Tailed Beasts failed to coexist with humans for a whole millennium. It wasn't just you who tried to contain them later.

[Tobirama Senju]: You just walked the same path as others did. There's no need for guilt.

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: But still…

[Tobirama Senju]: Instead of thinking about that, we should be figuring out how to deal with the Sage.

[Tobirama Senju]: Damn it!

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: What's wrong, Tobirama?

[Tobirama Senju]: I just got to the office. Kakashi already told him about the Sage showing up.

[Tobirama Senju]: And then…

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Then what?

[Tobirama Senju]: He told me the Sage's two sons—Indra and Asura—have been reincarnating this whole time.

[Tobirama Senju]: Last cycle, Uchiha Madara inherited Indra's chakra, and big bro—you were the Asura chakra host.

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Yeah, the Sage just told us that.

[Tobirama Senju]: But here's the problem—

[Tobirama Senju]: He also said that the current reincarnations of Indra and Asura are still in Konoha!

[Tobirama Senju]: He used the Rinnegan to observe Naruto and Sasuke—and confirmed it.

Uchiha Sasuke inherited Indra's chakra, and Naruto inherited Asura's chakra!

[Tobirama Achievement - Izuna]: What! Even someone as useless as Sasuke inherited Indra's chakra?!

[Tobirama Senju]: Calm down. Put simply, this is your brother's mess.

[Minato Namikaze]: Then—!

Minato suddenly became alert.

[Minato Namikaze]: Just now… Naruto was assigned by Kaede-kun to leave the village.

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: So does that mean Sasuke and Naruto might encounter the Sage?

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Tobirama, hurry! Don't let Sasuke be deceived!

[Tobirama Achievement - Izuna]: Why only worry about Sasuke being misled? What about Naruto?

[Tobirama Senju]: It's because of Madara's influence. Even if Sasuke's been tamed, the Uchiha naturally lean toward evil…

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Tobirama, don't say that!

[Tobirama Senju]: I'm just joking.

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: You seem oddly relaxed, Second Hokage.

[Tobirama Senju]: Oh?

…

Meanwhile—

On the Moon.

"Hah…"

Uchiha Madara was resting. He was still being fooled into slicing up the moon in search of Ōtsutsuki Hamura's supposed power inheritance.

...

But after cutting up eighty percent of the moon, there was still no sign of Hamura's power.

Could it be… Black Zetsu misread things after all?

Yet—

When he made that first cut, Madara had felt like he hit something.

"…" Madara.

"Madara!"

Suddenly, Black Zetsu called out from the side.

"What?"

"Get back to the ninja world—right now!" Black Zetsu urged.

"????" Madara was confused.

"The ninja world needs you."

"The Sage of Six Paths has returned," said Black Zetsu. "Though dead, he left behind a trump card. Now he's manifested in spiritual form—"

"With the power of the Six Paths."

"If we can't find strength here on the moon…"

"Then why not steal his power instead?" said Black Zetsu.

"…What?"

"So you're saying—" Madara paused. "Take the Sage's power for myself?"

"What, are you afraid of him?" Black Zetsu taunted.

"…" Madara.

In everyone's minds, the Sage of Six Paths was the founding figure of the shinobi world.

So now… they were talking about robbing that founding father of his power.

"Don't forget—he's the one who spread chakra, who passed it down to humans."

"And ever since then, the world's been a mess."

"If that cursed chakra had never been shared…"

"Would the shinobi world have faced so many wars and chaos?" Black Zetsu continued to whisper.

"…" Madara.

"…" Madara.

"…" Black Zetsu.

To be continued…
