Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

The old man is wearing a white robe that is embroidered with black tomoe on the back, and there is long beard on his chin.

Both of his eyes are Rinnegan, and there is a red mark on his forehead.

Sage Shakujō stood beside him.

Nine Truth-Seeking Balls are behind him and he is sitting cross-legged in the air.

Naruto looked at the person in front of him with a bit of surprise in his heart.

"This... who are you? Where is this place?"

"Here is your mindscape, where the Kyūbi used to be."

A rather majestic voice came from the old man's mouth.

After hearing this, Naruto looked around the place, 'No wonder I felt this place a little familiar.'

It's just that Kyūbi does not seem to be here.

"What about Kurama?" Naruto asked.

"We'll talk about this later. Let's talk about the things between us first."

Naruto also remembered what he is doing at this time, and finally saw the appearance of the old man in front of him clearly.

"Ah! You have Rinnegan! And Kakashi-sensei and Madara's Truth-Seeking Balls? Are you the Sage of Six Paths that Kakashi-sensei said before? The power giving old man?" Naruto exclaimed.

The Sage of Six Paths' expression changed slightly when he heard this.

'The power giving old man?'

'Why did you call me like that?'

"How did that guy explained about me to you..." Sage of Six Paths was speechless.

"When I think about it, before this, Kakashi-sensei said that in the final battle, my and Sasuke's strength will be needed, but he didn't directly say how to use it. He just said that we will meet an old man who will give it away. Could it be you? Are you the strange-jiji?" Naruto said expectantly.

Sage of Six Paths' face twitched when he heard this.

On the other side, Sasuke also said same things like Naruto.

This conversation makes Sage of Six Paths feels as if he has been shot in the knee.

"Haha, Hatake Kakashi? He's a really humorous guy." Sage of Six Paths forced a smile and said.

"Is Kakashi-sensei humorous? Why didn't I think so?"

Naruto touched his chin, showing a contemplative look, and after a while, he still couldn't figure out where Kakashi's humor was.

Sage of Six Paths then continued: "It seems that Hatake Kakashi already knows why I am here."

"That's right. There is nothing that Kakashi-sensei doesn't know."

Naruto said triumphantly, as if the one being praised is himself.

Sage of Six Paths showed a thoughtful look at this moment.

The first time he noticed Kakashi is when Kakashi was in the Box of Ultimate Bliss.

For the first time, the Sage of Six Paths saw that a person who did not have the Kekkei Genkai of his own actually possessed such a powerful power.

When he handed Kakashi the Yin and Yang Release, the Sage of Six Paths only felt that this person's future was limitless.

It's just that he did not expect that in such a short period of time, Kakashi would be able to condense nine Truth-Seeking Balls, reaching the peak of the Truth-Seeking Balls.

This kind of power is no longer inferior to that of the Jūbi's Jinchūriki.

It's just that if he wanted to deal with Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, it is still not enough.

But for Kakashi to know his existence, he feels that is is somewhat strange.

'It seems that more than a decade ago, it was not an illusion that an outsider intervened in this world. It was really someone entered this world. Is it Hatake Kakashi? Or is it someone else intervening?' Sage of Six Paths secretly thought.

'As things stand, one of those possibilities seems to be the case.'

'Otherwise, it is impossible for anyone to know that I will appear in the consciousness of Naruto and Sasuke in such style.'

'I just hope that the stability of this world will not be destroyed. Judging from the current situation, this person does not seem to be radical. If so, it should be fine. Besides...'

After Sage of Six Paths thought about it, he couldn't help but look at Naruto and Sasuke.

He saw that when the two talking about Kakashi, both of their eyes were full of reverence.

It seems that the reincarnation of his two sons has been convinced by Kakashi.

Not only that, but even the previous reincarnation also respected Kakashi immensely.

Sage of Six Paths sighed and then said: "Although I don't like being called power giving old man, it is not far from the truth. But before that, there are some things that I need to explain to you. Later, I can entrust the matter to you."

After saying that, Sage of Six Paths began to tell Naruto and Sasuke about the stories of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, Indra and Ashura.

He didn't care whether Naruto and Sasuke wanted to hear it or not, as he just started talking on his own.

Adhering to Kakashi's traditional virtue of respecting the elderly and caring for the young, Naruto and Sasuke listened carefully to the old man's nagging.

When the two are listening to the old man's story, the outside world has once again undergone tremendous changes.

The Five Kage saw the changes in the sky and it also made them uneasy.

"What's going on? Isn't the battle over? Why did Madara move again?" Gaara asked in surprise.

Shisui narrowed his eyes and it seems that he could clearly see the form in the sky.

"Half of Madara's body is under Black Zetsu's control. Looking at Madara's appearance, he doesn't want it to happen. It seems that the worst has happened. Black Zetsu has controlled Madara and wants to continue the Infinite Tsukuyomi plan."

"What? Damn it!" Tsunade yelled anxiously. But when she tried to move her body, her tired body no longer had the strength to support her to continue fighting.

Tsunade almost fell but Jiraiya quickly supported her.

"Tsunade, calm down. With your current state, it is useless even if you go there. That level of battle is no longer something we can intervene," Jiraiya said.

"But..."

"Kakashi went up." Shisui whispered.

They then saw that Kakashi seemed to be stopped by invisible enemies, unable to move forward, and even can only passively defend.

Mei looked at Kakashi in the sky worriedly.

But that height has already exceeded her Ninjutsu range, so she can't even provide assistance.

What's more, she now has no extra Chakra to do anything.

"Is the only thing we can do now is to watch from here?" Onoki said quite unwillingly.

But that's what happened.

When the battle has reached such level, these Shinobi in the conventional sense could not provide much help at all.

Itachi showed a thoughtful look, and said in a low voice: "I wonder what happened to Sasuke."

"Kakashi should have a plan. Let's wait and see," Shisui said.

Itachi nodded slightly as that's all he can do right now.

At this moment, a plain white figure slowly appeared in front of everyone.

In the sky.

Kakashi manipulated the Truth-Seeking Balls to collide with the four shadows.

Black Zetsu has already completed absorbing the God Tree.

The huge God Tree disappeared without a trace, and a red eye appeared on Madara's forehead.

It is Nine Tomoe Rinnegan!

"Haha, it finally succeeded. Now, there is only one last step left." Black Zetsu said with a sneer.

Hearing this, Kakashi looked over, and his heart sank when he saw the eye on Madara's forehead.
