Chapter 2: Hamura's back-up plan, the secret of the pure eye

"The prediction of the Great Toad Immortal was actually correct."

These words from the Six Paths Sage were like a faint flame, igniting Naruto's already desperate heart once again.

Naruto stood up again with tears in his eyes, looked at the Sage of Six Paths, and asked calmly, "What do you mean?"

The Six Paths Sage smiled and said, "Aren't you curious about why you met me here?"

Naruto frowned.

Oh, that’s right, didn’t the Six Paths Sage disappear completely after the end of the Ninja World War? How come he met me again?

Could it be!

Hope reappeared in Naruto's eyes and he looked towards the Sage of Six Paths, waiting for the answer he was expecting in his heart.

The Six Paths Sage looked at Naruto and said calmly: "Although Boruto did not defeat the Otsutsuki clan, the prediction of the Great Toad Sage was indeed correct, because Boruto did one thing, that is, sending you to see me!"

Naruto was a little surprised and said: "You mean, I can appear here because Boruto sent me here."

The Six Paths Sage nodded and said, "Yes, you did die in the battle, but your soul was preserved by Boruto with his Pure Eye!"

"Boruto had engraved the Otsutsuki clan's forbidden techniques in his eyes in advance. After he was defeated and became a vessel, he gained a large amount of chakra, and the forbidden techniques in his eyes were able to be activated directly. Through the magic weapon, he brought you to me, but the price was that he sacrificed his own life."

Hearing this, Naruto was moved to tears.

"Boruto, my good son, wuwuwu..."

The Six Paths Sage looked at Naruto, took out an object with his right hand and said, "This is the divine weapon."

Naruto woke up from his sad thoughts and looked at the cracked object in the Six Paths Sage's hand, and said in surprise: "What is this? The Otsutsuki's magic weapon, the plow!"

The Sage of Six Paths nodded and said, "Yes, through this plow, Boruto sacrificed himself and used the forbidden technique of the Otsutsuki to send your soul to meet me. And you, Naruto, now face a choice, a choice that can change the ninja world again!"

Naruto looked at the Sage of Six Paths in shock, and he seemed to understand something.

After a lot of twists and turns, it turns out that what the Great Toad Sage said, that Boruto can change the ninja world, is this how he changes the ninja world!

but!

How did Boruto determine all this?

How could he know that sending my spirit to meet Six Paths would definitely change the ninja world?

Besides, how did he know the forbidden technique of the Otsutsuki clan!

The Six Paths Sage saw the confusion in Naruto's eyes.

He looked at the cracked plow in his hand, sighed and said, "Before I answer your doubts, let me ask you a question, Naruto! After going through all this, do you still think that what I did was right?"

After listening to the Six Paths Sage's question, Naruto was silent for a while, and then he said: "To be honest, now I no longer agree with your approach. The Otsutsuki clan is indeed too powerful. If you want to avoid being destroyed, you must gain the power to fight against them at all costs!"

After hearing what Naruto said, the Six Paths Sage was silent.

Because the last time we met was during the Fourth Ninja World War.

He also asked Naruto, what would you do if Sasuke wanted to unify the ninja world at all costs?

Naruto's answer was to stop Sasuke and believe in universal love and a world where people can understand each other.

Look at now.

The Six Paths Sage sighed and said sadly: "Alas, the things my mother feared back then have now come true. In the end, I was too short-sighted, and in the end, I was wrong."

Naruto did not deny it.

Because he once agreed with the Six Paths Sage's approach, but after witnessing the tragedy of the ninja world, seeing the strength of the Otsutsuki clan, and experiencing the death and separation of his relatives and friends, he can now never go back to the past!

The Naruto who was full of ideals and believed in universal love and a world where people could understand each other is dead.

As if he felt the atmosphere was a bit heavy, the Six Paths Sage smiled again and said, "But it's okay. Fortunately, there is still a chance to make up for it. It seems that the backup plan left by Hamura was correct."

Naruto's eyes wrinkled slightly in confusion.

The Sage of Six Paths looked at Naruto and answered his questions.

"I know you must be confused as to why your son Boruto seemed to know all this in advance and was so sure to send you to see me!"

Naruto nodded and motioned for the Six Paths Sage to continue.

The Six Paths Sage continued, "Back then, I did not agree with what my mother Kaguya did, so I sealed her on the moon. My younger brother Hamura led the tribe to stay on the moon to accompany my mother. During the long period of companionship, Hamura was also investigating the real reason why my mother Kaguya kept looking up at the stars and was always afraid, until my younger brother Hamura awakened the Pure Eye!"

Looking at the shocked Naruto, the Sage of Six Paths narrowed his eyes and said: "You guessed right, it's the kind of awakening Boruto."

The Sage of Six Paths continued to recall, "My younger brother, Hamura, discovered through constant exploration of the Pure Eye that he could sometimes see many fragments of time and space, both in the past and in the future, but it was uncontrollable.

It was not until his younger brother Hamura saw some fragments of time and space that he finally understood why his mother Kaguya had always been looking up at the stars and why she had always been worried. It turned out that the Otsutsuki clan outside the domain really existed, and they were so powerful that it was scary!

So, Hamura came to me immediately and told me about the situation. "

Naruto was extremely shocked. There was actually such a secret. Doesn't that mean that the Six Paths Sage knew about this from the very beginning!

So why?

The Sage of Six Paths looked at Naruto and said, "Are you wondering why I chose to take this path even though I knew everything?"

Naruto nodded.

The Six Paths Sage continued, "Because, at that time, Hamura was not sure that what he saw was true, and he could not see the future, so the Ninja World would definitely be destroyed."

Naruto said "oh" and then looked at the Sage of Six Paths and said, "So, you've chosen to take a gamble?"

The Sage of Six Paths nodded and said, "Yes, I chose to take a gamble, but now it seems that I lost the gamble and was wrong. Fortunately, my brother Hamura suggested that I leave a backup plan, otherwise I would really regret it."

Looking at Naruto who was anxiously waiting for the answer, the Six Paths Sage continued, "Hamura continued to explore the Pure Eye and obtained the relevant memory chakra from his mother Kaguya's chakra. Only then did he know that the Pure Eye has another nickname in the Otsutsuki clan, called the Samsara Eye!"
