The Sage of Six Paths—his temperament was eccentric.
He said so himself.
He once entrusted most of his power to Asura, just to suppress Indra and prevent him from destroying the Ninzong order.
Yet Ninzong still collapsed in the end.
The exact reason for its collapse remains unclear.
But Senju Yukika could deduce a few things.
When Asura died, those in power no longer wanted to stay in the Ninzong temple with young followers, so they took some people and left.
It was like the fall of a dynasty.
The memories of the Sage of Six Paths and Asura doomed the shinobi to a future of turmoil.
Was chakra meant to be a medium for mutual understanding?
Sorry.
It was just pure power.
A faint blue soul gradually took human form and locked eyes with Senju Yukika.
His foolish brother was dead.
Indra could feel that clearly.
Before the Sage of Six Paths died, Indra had told him that even after death, his soul would reincarnate and continue fighting Asura. It was more like a curse placed upon Senju Yukika.
Second-to-last among the reincarnations, arrogant and warlike—a god of eternal conflict.
That was the official evaluation.
His life seemed like a script.
Born exceptional, believing himself the child of destiny, only to be harshly corrected by the Sage.
In the end, he was defeated by the combined strength of Asura and others.
But from a practical standpoint, Asura's so-called "power of the people" was a fallacy.
Essentially, they just gave their chakra to one person.
That power originally belonged to them—what was the point?
From Earth's perspective, the Sage seemed to have done the right thing.
He dealt with the chaos caused by Kaguya, but the casualties in that battle may have surpassed those from the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Worse still, he dispersed chakra and gave power to humanity—creating an even more potent effect than the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Ninzong, the Warring States Era, the First and Second Great Ninja Wars.
If not for Senju Yukika, the Third Great Ninja War would have been even bloodier.
All humanity gained from power was suffering.
"I hope you can make it right."
As Asura's death faded, Indra's obsession also dissipated, and his soul vanished.
A small cluster of Indra's chakra entered Senju Yukika's body.
In that instant, Yukika's blood boiled.
Just having the Senju and Asura's bloodline wasn't enough—it wasn't complete.
Even reaching the level of the Sage of Six Paths wasn't perfect.
The peak of the shinobi world's bloodline might not even be Kaguya Otsutsuki.
But when Indra and Asura's blood fused, Yukika felt a surge of power concentrating in his eyes.
Remember, Madara had only bitten off a piece of Hashirama's flesh and transplanted it to gain Wood Release and the Rinnegan.
Now, Yukika had full Asura chakra, and though he had just a small portion of Indra's, it was enough to awaken his eyes—no need to seek the Sharingan step by step.
This was purer than the Uchiha clan's blood.
With a sharp flash in his eyes, Yukika's gaze changed.
Mysterious ripple patterns emerged clearly—his vision jumped from 1K to 4K.
Visually, that was only one of many changes.
The Rinnegan's abilities began to surface in his mind.
He extended his hand toward a boulder—chakra slowly flowed.
"Universal Pull."
A powerful gravitational force activated, and the boulder flew directly into Yukika's hand.
The Rinnegan wasn't meant for killing.
In terms of raw attack power, Yukika felt it wasn't as strong as his King Cero.
Even the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, capable of slicing the moon, was stronger.
But the Rinnegan triumphed with versatility.
Deva Path, Six Paths, gravity and repulsion.
Even in the original story, Nagato never fully tapped into the Rinnegan's potential.
Madara's Limbo: Border Jail was just one aspect of it.
As always...
In the ninja world, bloodlines reigned supreme.
Their power originated from Kaguya, but within the broader Otsutsuki clan, there were countless powerful techniques.
These eyes had incredible potential.
Now, Yukika's bloodline was near the level of the Sage of Six Paths.
"This power isn't that hard to control."
He clenched his fist and rose into the air.
Madara had been revived.
And what he did next would plunge the world into chaos.
The Fourth Great Ninja War, originally in the future, might start early.
This was the chain reaction from Yukika's transmigration.
Someone like Madara would surely respond when threatened—seeking to re-establish dominance.
The shinobi world was about to erupt.
Yukika had two choices:
First, follow Madara's rhythm—become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, then use himself as a medium to cast Infinite Tsukuyomi and revive Kaguya.
Second, tear apart the moon directly and release Kaguya's true body, extracting the truth about the Otsutsuki clan and finding a way to reach their alien dimension.
But no matter the choice, the first step was to stabilize the chaos in the shinobi world.
Madara's premature actions had inadvertently helped Yukika—only when the other villages saw how narrow-minded they'd been could they realize that civil strife was pointless.
The true enemy was singular:
The Otsutsuki Clan.
