Land of Waterfalls.
In a hidden forest, a grand mansion was situated.
Inside the bedroom.
Jokichi faced the mirror.
He looked in disbelief at the person inside, the mysterious eyes revealed after breaking through the disguise mask.
Purple, with ripples circling outward layer by layer.
The Rinnegan.
Exactly the same as Sasuke's future Rinnegan.
But Sasuke only had one Rinnegan, while he had two.
Whether it was the Sharingan or the Rinnegan.
Its true power could only be fully unleashed when both eyes were present.
Perhaps it was this exact difference that caused Jokichi's Rinnegan to have nine tomoe, rather than six.
After eating the Remnant Divine Tree Crystal.
He had expected only his vitality, chakra, and Wood Release to have an explosive enhancement.
And that was indeed the case.
His vitality, chakra, and Wood Release power had skyrocketed exponentially.
Although he still could not use the True Several Thousand Hands.
Clapping his hands to create a forest spanning several kilometers was a breeze.
Moreover, with this kind of chakra, he could fully master the powerful Sage Mode brought by the Garb of Heaven and Earth.
However, the surprises did not stop there.
As the saying goes, a strong body leads to more vigorous energy.
The explosive growth of his vitality, chakra, and Wood Release power created a chain reaction.
Keeping his spiritual energy in an active state.
This caused the Rinnegan, which should have taken a while longer to awaken, to awaken right at this moment.
And the chakra in his body surged once again.
After all, chakra is extracted from the fusion of spiritual energy and physical energy.
The awakening of the Rinnegan caused his spiritual energy to increase exponentially.
Now, Jokichi dared to claim that even if the First Hokage was resurrected.
His chakra would not compare to his own.
Only guys on the level of the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki or the Sage of Six Paths could compete with him in chakra.
Furthermore, because both eyes awakened.
The visual prowess of Jokichi's Rinnegan was far stronger than Sasuke's.
Not to mention Amenotejikara, which could forcibly swap places with a target.
He could right now use the spatial abilities that Sasuke only developed later.
Moreover, Sasuke could only open spatial portals at an incredibly slow speed.
Only usable for travel outside of combat.
But Jokichi's spatial ability was different.
He could open spatial portals in an instant.
Using them in combat like Yomotsu Hirasaka or Kamui.
Furthermore, Sasuke using a spatial portal would consume a massive amount of chakra.
But he could use it like a normal visual jutsu.
The most crucial point was that Jokichi's chakra was multiple times that of Sasuke's.
When using it, he did not have to worry about running out of chakra at all.
However.
"It still can't compare to Kaguya Otsutsuki's Rinne Sharingan."
Although it also had nine tomoe.
But Kaguya Otsutsuki's Rinne Sharingan possessed the visual prowess of both the Sharingan and the Rinnegan simultaneously.
Jokichi's, however, only had the visual prowess of the Rinnegan.
The Eternal Mangekyo had been overwritten.
Aside from the inherent visual jutsu of the Rinnegan.
The Rinnegan's observational ability far exceeded that of the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Possessing the Rinnegan, Jokichi seemed to be able to see through the essence of all things in the world.
The composition of an object, the reasons behind events and phenomena.
Although he could not name them due to a lack of knowledge, he could see everything clearly.
This was the realm of the Creation of All Things.
A realm that could only be reached by someone who possessed a complete Rinnegan and had learned Six Paths Senjutsu.
For a person reaching this level, learning would become incredibly simple.
Nagato learned under Jiraiya, and by age 10, he could master all six nature transformations and was proficient in all mainstream ninjutsu.
After Uzumaki Naruto learned Six Paths Senjutsu, he could effortlessly create Rasengan with various nature transformations without needing to learn them.
Uchiha Obito, after achieving Sage transformation and reaching this realm, was self-taught.
He directly used Truth-Seeking Orbs formed by the fusion of multiple natures.
Uchiha Madara was even more capable of unleashing various Kekkei Genkai ninjutsu and senjutsu effortlessly.
Senju Hashirama might have also reached this realm.
Otherwise, there would be no way to explain how he could instantly absorb the natural energy of the entire sky and enter Sage Mode.
Jokichi had now also reached this realm.
As long as he met the foundational requirements for learning, anything would become extremely simple.
For instance, the S-rank forbidden jutsu Spirit Transformation Technique, which he could never learn before.
He could now execute it with ease.
However, for some unknown reason.
He could not casually unleash Kekkei Genkai formed by the fusion of two chakra natures like Madara could.
Perhaps it had to do with bloodlines.
After all, whether it was Nagato, Sasuke, or Naruto, none of them could use Kekkei Genkai nature transformations.
Only Obito and Madara, after becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, could do so.
Which means.
"The Divine Tree, huh."
Jokichi smiled lightly and began to form hand seals.
"Let's give it a try. Summoning: Demonic Statue of the Outer Path."
He pressed his right hand onto the ground.
As the formula runes spread out, a coercive summoning force pierced through space.
Land of Rain.
Central Tower.
Nagato, who was resting, suddenly opened his eyes.
The concentric ripples seemed to come alive, trembling continuously.
"Someone is summoning the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. This is impossible!"
Land of Frost.
Inside the underground base.
Obito looked at the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path sitting on the lotus flower.
It was shaking continuously, as if it was being summoned again.
He could not help but reveal a look of surprise.
"What's going on?"
Obito contacted Nagato via remote transmission.
"Why are you summoning the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path at this time?"
"No, it's not me."
Nagato's voice contained a hint of panic.
"Someone else is summoning it. A second pair of Rinnegan has appeared in this world."
"What!?"
Obito turned pale with fright.
"How could there be a second pair of Rinnegan? Impossi"
Halfway through his sentence, Jokichi's face suddenly surfaced in Obito's mind.
The First Hokage Senju Hashirama's Wood Release, the Uchiha clan's Eternal Mangekyo.
Could it be.
Did the reincarnations of Asura and Indra appear in the same person this time?
Cold sweat dripped down Obito's forehead.
"Nagato, control the statue. Whatever you do, don't let him summon it away."
"I'm already doing that."
Nagato said strenuously.
His face, which had just regained some color thanks to the Three-Tails, instantly turned deathly pale.
He had once again overdrawn his life force.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long.
The other party seemed to have given up directly because the summoning was unsuccessful.
Land of Waterfalls.
The grand mansion in the hidden forest.
Jokichi looked at the empty floor and pondered slightly.
"It seems the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path and Nagato's Rinnegan have already established a contractual relationship. Otherwise, I should have been able to summon it over."
Madara's Rinnegan was also very strong, but Nagato was not the original owner.
So he could not unleash its full power.
If a contractual relationship had not been established, he would not have been able to stop Jokichi's summoning.
However, even if the summoning failed, there was nothing to regret.
This was just a spur-of-the-moment attempt anyway.
The awakening of the Rinnegan had already brought him many surprises.
He did not care about the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path at all.
Anyway, the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path was right there.
Since he could not summon it, he would just go over and snatch it.
As the husk of the Ten-Tails, the items forged from it should also be able to fuse with the Tailed Beast rings, right!
