No, it's not about immortality, but the ability to be constantly reborn. It's just impossible to kill him!
Upon learning of this, the Sage of the Six Paths was completely stunned. Is this a man?
Are you sure this Uchiha Yue is a human? Are you sure that it really exists and is not a figment of your imagination?
How could such a monster even exist!
And how could he become like this just because of a pair of Mangekyo Sharingans?
Why didn't he know that Mangekye Sharingan possessed such power? If he is so powerful, then what is the Divine Tree?
After all, he dismembered the Divine Tree precisely because he considered it too dangerous. And now it turns out that compared to the Tree, the real threat is the Mangekye Sharingan?
The Sage of the Six Paths couldn't believe it.
However, his gaze turned to that darkness, to that area that had already engulfed the Land of Fire and the neighboring countries, continuing to expand infinitely.…
He tried to channel his perception into the Area of Dead Silence in order to understand what this Uchiha Yue was like, but his sensory abilities could not penetrate inside.
It was still tolerable at the border, but when trying to penetrate deeper into that abyss, where even the light disappeared, his power was immediately absorbed. At that moment, he realized that Uchiha Yue was a creature who had no place in this world. This walking natural disaster was much more terrible than his mother had been in her time.
Even if his mother had established her tyranny back then, she would only have turned the people of the Shinobi world into White Zetsu. But there would still be living people, and flowers with herbs, and animals — all this would continue to exist.
But what about Uchiha Yue?
Damn it, he's going to destroy the whole world!
No, he had to stop Uchiha Yue.
The Sage of the Six Paths immediately took action. The first thing he did was go in search of the Divine Tree and found that it had disappeared.
Where did that huge Divine Tree that he left on the moon go?
But it wasn't just the Tree that was missing. The sage wanted to transfer his power to the reincarnations of his sons, but found out that Indra's chakra had disappeared. The soul was still in the Pure Lands, but the chakra was not. Moreover, the remaining reincarnation also embarked on a dark path.
How could the Shinobi world have come to this while he was sleeping? The great building is about to collapse, the world is on the verge of destruction, and he doesn't seem to have the strength to save it anymore.
His chakra was completely unable to penetrate the Area of Dead Silence, except that… While the Sage of the Six Paths was hesitating whether he should break his own principles, recreate the flesh and return to life, he came across a prophecy about a Child from the prophecy…
"Don't, don't kill me!"
"Help!"
"I don't want to die!"
"You damn ninjas, to hell with saving the world!
"Why didn't that gentleman kill you all!"
— Ah-ah-ah-ah!
Desperate screams, angry curses, hatred— all this was mixed with screams of horror and despair. The scarlet blood, spreading out, formed a crimson river. The hot steam rising from it exuded a thick, nauseating stench.
The countless corpses piled up formed a giant mountain of flesh and blood.
Five million!
Five million people from different countries were brutally murdered, and their souls were extracted and sealed by a huge formation inscribed on the ground.
— Was it worth it? What we did…
"Ha... we... what the hell are we doing?"…
One of the ninjas looked at the swirling bloody river, inhaled the sickening stench, and saw a terrifying mountain of corpses. It was as if countless moans were still echoing in his ears. Unable to restrain himself, he put his hand over his mouth, fell to his knees, and vomited.
No war in history has ever known such a monstrous tragedy. Five million people, not pigs. Even the massacre of five million pigs would make anyone with a conscience shudder, let alone kill their own kind.
— It was worth it, everything was worth it. If anyone is to blame, it's Konoha. Blame Uchiha Yue. If we didn't have to confront him, if we didn't have to kill this monster, would we have done this?!
"It's all... it's Uchiha Yue's fault, it's not our fault."…
— That's right, they would have died anyway. And now they have contributed to the murder of Uchiha Yue, as they should have. It's for the sake of the world, and for their sake too!
— We were not mistaken, we were definitely not mistaken!
— All for the sake of saving the world…
Pale as a sheet, these ninjas stared at the bloody hell in front of them. Even for them, who were used to killing, this sight was unbearable. Later, some of them, unable to withstand the pressure, committed suicide.
It wasn't just a massacre. It was all for the souls.
After studying the case of Sarutobi Hiruzen, they developed a special soul fusion technique. By fusing together a huge number of souls and subjecting them to special treatment, they eventually created weapons capable of destroying souls.
In the eyes of Ootsutsuki Isshiki, all these sacrifices were justified. He didn't care about the life and death of lower beings, all that mattered to him was whether his plan would succeed.
That's right, Ootsutsuki Isshiki hasn't given up on the idea of killing Uchiha Yue. That pair of Mangekyo Sharingans that can grant evolution and elevation… He still wanted them badly. And he believed that he had found a way to kill Uchiha Yue.
A weapon capable of completely destroying a soul was absolutely necessary to him. After learning about Jigen's idea, the aristocracy that ruled the countries reacted especially sharply when they realized that it would take a huge number of people to create powerful weapons.
In the past, they would never have agreed to this. Although they were inhuman, they hadn't gone mad yet.
But now everything has changed. A few people? They're going to die soon anyway, because the world is on the verge of destruction. Take it if you want. The main thing is that the aristocrats should not be affected. And the rabble… Well, if they die, they'll die.
If only they could kill Uchiha Yue and save the world. And the commoners... until every last one of them dies out, they'll grow like weeds again.
Five million?
Isn't that a bit much? How about ten? Twenty will do, too. There are hundreds of millions of people in the Shinobi world.
Even Ootsutsuki Isshiki felt that these aristocrats were still geeks.
