Chapter 761: The Rampaging Naruto
Seeing Kaguya’s immortal body recover and revive by merely gathering chakra, Naruto grew even more enraged.
He struck again, with greater force, twisting space itself, surpassing the power of Eight Gates Night Guy.
The blow instantly pulverized Kaguya’s entire body into a bloody mist, completely shattered!
Yet, moments later, in just a few dozen seconds—
The surrounding chakra began gathering bit by bit, slowly reforming Kaguya’s form.
This was no longer self-healing but a form of resurrection!
Its speed was far faster, thousands of times quicker than the Tailed Beasts, who needed years or decades to gather and revive.
This was the true power of the Rabbit Goddess, the power of immortality!
Naruto couldn’t believe it.
He attacked again, four Truth-Seeking Balls flying from behind him, transforming into a spiral meat grinder, sweeping through Kaguya.
Instantly, her half-reformed body was obliterated and vanished.
This time, not a drop of blood remained—completely disintegrated!
Nothing material could withstand the annihilating nature of Truth-Seeking Balls...
Yet Naruto still failed.
After some time—perhaps dozens of seconds, perhaps over a minute...
Though slower than before, Kaguya’s immortal body’s unique chakra began gradually gathering, slowly taking shape!
Finally, the founder of chakra rose again!
Chakra is fundamentally energy, obeying the law of energy conservation, merely transforming from one form to another, transferring between individuals.
Even techniques as powerful as Dust Release and Truth-Seeking Balls could only break down and destroy matter, not energy, not chakra.
If ordinary methods could kill Kaguya, the Sage of the Six Paths would’ve done so long ago, instead of continually sealing her.
Sealing creates an artificial closed barrier, trapping chakra inside to prevent escape, gathering, or revival outside.
Of course, aside from Six Paths Chibaku Tensei, ordinary seals couldn’t contain Kaguya.
Seeing Kaguya rise again, the brutal Six Paths Naruto grew undeniably angrier, the darkness in his eyes deepening, nearing the brink of total madness.
With no other choice, Naruto began a frenzied slaughter.
Taijutsu, ninjutsu, dōjutsu, kekkei genkai, Truth-Seeking Balls, and more...
Naruto used every power at his disposal, repeatedly destroying Kaguya, killing her over and over, trying again and again.
He couldn’t accept it!
He couldn’t accept that Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, a mastermind behind Sasuke’s, Hinata’s, and countless others’ deaths, couldn’t be fully killed, remaining immortal and indestructible!
This was an insult to him and to all life!
No matter what, Naruto had to truly kill Kaguya before him, not just seal her!
Simultaneously, watching his mother Kaguya repeatedly killed by Naruto, then gathering and reviving, Black Zetsu, trapped by the Truth-Seeking Ball, finally stopped screaming, crying, and wailing...
Right!
Mother was the founder of chakra, the immortal Rabbit Goddess! What did mere physical wounds mean?
Naruto couldn’t kill her at all!
Aside from sealing techniques, no injury, even if her body was atomized, would only slightly delay her chakra’s gathering and revival.
The lowly ninjas of this ninja world couldn’t kill Mother.
All that effort was futile.
He’d been too worried!
"Hahaha!"
"Uzumaki Naruto, you can’t kill Mother! She’s immortal!"
"You’ll all die eventually, but Mother will live forever."
"Hahaha!"
Black Zetsu shed his earlier humility, laughing maniacally again.
He mocked Naruto’s overexertion, the delusions of these human ninjas.
Though Naruto had gained power surpassing his mother Kaguya, humans remained humans, aging and dying; for this reason alone, Naruto couldn’t defeat Mother!
The last to win, to live into the future, would surely be his immortal mother, Kaguya!
Black Zetsu’s shouts and taunts infuriated Six Paths Naruto further.
With a single thought, he controlled the Truth-Seeking Ball cage holding Black Zetsu, shrinking and crushing it further.
*SZZZZZZ!*
Black Zetsu’s viscous body vaporized and disintegrated under the Truth-Seeking Ball, hissing and emitting white smoke.
In moments, Black Zetsu melted to fist-sized, leaving only his core.
Yet his mouth remained defiant.
"Uzumaki Naruto!"
"Even if you kill me, you can’t kill Mother!"
"You’ll lose everything, you’re only fit to have nothing; Uzumaki Naruto! You’re a loser!"
Black Zetsu’s stubborn mouth kept spewing insults.
He was certain Naruto wouldn’t kill him!
As long as Mother lived, Naruto wouldn’t dare. Otherwise, he wouldn’t just cage him.
So he had to keep insulting, keep humiliating; to make Naruto realize his failure, his weakness; and most importantly, his helplessness!
Sadly, Black Zetsu didn’t see how Naruto finished Isshiki.
Thus, he misjudged the killing-intent-filled Naruto again.
And this was his final misjudgment.
"Oh, then you die first!"
Naruto didn’t even turn, let alone glance at Black Zetsu. He only snorted coldly and insanely, continuing to shrink and annihilate the Truth-Seeking Ball cage.
"Wait—!"
"Nooo—!"
Black Zetsu’s most terrified scream rang out, then abruptly stopped.
Simple reason.
The Truth-Seeking Ball cage had shrunk back to a sphere, instantly obliterating the trapped Black Zetsu.
Not a trace remained.
Didn’t this arrogant Black Zetsu desperately want to die? Six Paths Naruto was happy to oblige.
Unlike his mother, he had no immortal body. Even Kakashi and Minato, without Six Paths power, could kill him, let alone the current Six Paths Naruto?
With this, Parallel World Black Zetsu was truly dead!
◆━⊰✧⊱━◆
In the distance.
Eida and Daemon also witnessed this scene, Black Zetsu’s death, and Kaguya’s repeated deaths and revivals.
"Sister, you weren’t wrong. That Ōtsutsuki Kaguya really can’t be killed!"
"And that pitch-black thing died instantly—why such a huge gap?"
Daemon was shocked, unable to comprehend how someone couldn’t die and could revive repeatedly?
This was too outrageous...
"Black Zetsu was just a pseudo-life created by Kaguya, without even a soul, so killing him wasn’t hard."
"But the Rabbit Goddess is entirely different—she’s truly immortal! An indestructible, unkillable existence."
Eida muttered in response, holding no fondness for the Ōtsutsuki but having to admire Kaguya’s terror.
Her opponent wasn’t a resilient monster like Isshiki but truly unkillable!
"Then what? Let the Hokage keep killing like this? When will it end? It looks endless!"
"I don’t know, I can’t..."
Eida shook her head. What could she do?
Dare she approach and try to stop Six Paths Naruto?
She’d probably be reduced to ash instantly.
Wasn’t this putting her in a tough spot?
"Sister, why don’t we just leave?"
"The feeling from Uzumaki Naruto is getting more dangerous..."
"Even from this distance, I can feel my killing-intent reflection slightly triggered..."
"I’m worried if this continues, he’ll really kill everyone!"
Daemon suggested.
Not because he always wanted to flee, but he genuinely felt the threat.
A real, indiscriminate threat from the brutal Six Paths Naruto...
Clearly, as Kaguya’s slaughter continued, Naruto’s mental state deteriorated, like a player slowly going mad in a game.
"What? Even your Divine Technique is starting to trigger?"
Eida’s expression changed drastically, forcing her to seriously consider Daemon’s suggestion.
She didn’t want to anger the Seventh Hokage, but staying here, just waiting for death...
She certainly didn’t want to be killed pointlessly by an out-of-control Naruto.
That would be too unfair and not worth it.
"Sister! Hurry, or we might not get away!"
"This..."
Eida looked at Six Paths Naruto in the distance, then at her brother beside her; finally, with firm resolve, she decided.
"I’ll try once more. If it fails, we’ll run!"
After speaking, Eida pulled Daemon onto her back, then walked toward Tenshou Sennin not far to the left.
Moments later.
The siblings arrived near Lux.
"Lord, I..."
"You want me to stop Naruto?"
Lux instantly grasped Eida’s intent, cutting off her question.
"Yes! That Kaguya can’t be killed, only sealed. If the Seventh Hokage keeps killing like this, he might go mad first..."
"How are you sure Kaguya can’t be killed?"
"Huh? She can be killed?"
"Of course."
"But I’m worried the Seventh Hokage can’t wait that long. Daemon’s already sensed him releasing indiscriminate killing intent; his Divine Technique is ready to activate. I fear it won’t be long before the Seventh Hokage truly goes mad."
"Oh?"
Lux was slightly surprised.
He initially thought Naruto’s resolve was strong enough to last longer.
He didn’t expect him to be nearing total loss of control?
Even Daemon’s Divine Technique, reflecting killing intent, was slightly triggered, proving Naruto’s condition was dire, seemingly driven mad by killing...
Was Sasuke’s death too triggering? Or did Kaguya’s unkillable nature prevent Naruto from releasing his rage?
Likely a mix of reasons...
"Lord, please stop the Seventh Hokage! It seems only you can. And a totally mad, murderous Hokage isn’t what you want, right?"
Eida still tried hard to persuade.
She wasn’t overly clever, but she could see Lux’s inclinations. He didn’t want a mad Hokage, so he chose to help Naruto.
"You’re right, I don’t want Naruto to go completely mad."
"Don’t worry, I’ll handle it."
Lux gave his answer.
Initially, he intended to let Naruto kill Isshiki and Kaguya, venting his heart’s rage, then help him regain sanity.
But now, if Kaguya remained unkillable, Naruto’s already mad and fragile mind would likely collapse first, turning him into an indiscriminate murderous maniac.
That wasn’t what Lux wanted.
Best to stop Naruto’s rampage and find another way to deal with Kaguya.
However...
Lux himself didn’t want to approach Naruto to advise him; it would likely only spark conflict. Though he’d helped Naruto greatly, their relationship was far from close.
Simply put, Lux knew how ineffective his persuasion would be on the brutal Naruto now.
But if he couldn’t, that didn’t mean others couldn’t!
In the grand Parallel World, was there fear of not finding people Naruto deeply loved and respected?
*SHUA!*
Lux vanished from his spot, leaving Parallel World 7.
◆━⊰✧⊱━◆
Elsewhere, in Parallel World 4.
The Fourth Hokage here, Namikaze Minato, since teaming up with Nagato from Parallel World 5 and Hashirama and Madara from Parallel World 1, defeated Isshiki on the Moon’s battlefield.
Parallel World 4 was nearly united.
Though Minato didn’t forcibly merge other villages and nations, nearly all voluntarily requested to join Konoha.
Especially Iwagakure, the first to actively submit, kneeling with great enthusiasm.
Seeing even the stubborn Third Tsuchikage kneel, other villages could only follow.
What a joke.
Konoha and Minato had fought to the Moon, leading the Ninja Alliance to defeat the Ōtsutsuki clan there.
What could these villages fight against?
Did they really think Minato couldn’t make a Rasengan anymore? Or mistake him for a naive youth kind to enemies?
The Yellow Flash of old could instantly kill fifty ninjas—how many could he kill instantly now?
Of course, Minato’s path differed from Orochimaru’s in Parallel World 3, who unified by force. Minato didn’t annex all nations to build a Fire Empire.
Instead, he adopted a gentler merger approach, preparing to unite all nations and villages into a United Fire Nation.
Balancing all parties’ needs and interests, he aimed to minimize losses, smoothly uniting into a superpower.
Naturally, Minato wouldn’t sacrifice Konoha’s or his family’s interests.
He wasn’t a naive political mascot!
Thus, Minato had been very busy lately.
Daily government affairs, meetings with national leaders and village representatives, endless integration meetings...
He felt as busy as a hundred people.
Fortunately, for the swift Minato, this only added a slight burden, not exhausting him to the point of not returning home.
After all, returning home was a split-second for Minato.
It was late at night.
In the Hokage’s office, Minato, nearly smoking his signing pen from overuse, finally finished the day’s work.
After a hard day, thinking of his ’sweet wife and cute baby’ at home, Minato couldn’t help but smile with spirited satisfaction.
*WHOOSH!*
Minato activated Flying Thunder God, heading home instantly.
"Kushina, and cute little Naruto-chan, Daddy’s back!"
Minato brushed off his fatigue, calling out cheerfully.
But he suddenly noticed, besides Kushina holding baby Naruto in the living room, another familiar figure was there.
"Lord, why are you here? Sorry, I’ve been too busy to host you properly!"
"No worries. I came for you and Kushina."
"Is it something important?"
Minato grew serious.
Seeking him was one thing, but Kushina too—it couldn’t be trivial, right?
Instantly, even Minato, nearly uniting the world and at the peak of Parallel World 4, couldn’t suppress his anxiety.
"No need to worry."
"I just want to ask, are you ready to meet your son, Uzumaki Naruto, from another dimension?"
