Chapter 169

Linley was shocked to see the one and only Sage of The Six paths speaking and looking at him through his Rinnegan sizing him up...

At the same time, Linley was looking at Hagoromo, who was a tall and pale-skinned man, who had deep wrinkles and a strong jawline in his elderly age.

He had spiky, shoulder-length, pale brown hair, with a chin-length, braided lock hanging in front of his left ear.

He also sported a goatee, which was short in his younger years and later tapered down to his waist in his old age.

Hagoromo had a pair of horn-like protrusions extending from either side of his forehead and pupilless white eyes.

What stood out though was that he also had a red Rinnegan-like marking in the centre of his forehead.

Hagoromo was wearing a white, full-length kimono with a pattern of six black magatamas around a high collar, beneath which, he wore a necklace which was also made up of six black magatamas.

On the back of his kimono was a larger, black Rinnegan marking with a pattern of nine magatamas arranged in three rows of three beneath it.

How... How are you talking to me??? I thought you could only talk to those birthed by you and their reincarnations... : Linley

Young Man... You are currently lost in the pursuit of power... : Hagoromo

Ever since you have awakened your true Bloodline which i have never seen or heard, i have been paying close attention to you... And not just i but also the guardians of this realm... : Hagoromo

Huh?? : Linley

By guardians i mean the one in the moon and the sage animals on the different realms out there... : Hagoromo

Oh!!! : Linley

And what does someone of your stature wants from me?? : Linley

Young Man, you are searching for power way too greedily... : Hagoromo

If i don't hunt for power, then i won't be able to protect everyone from the likes of you and the Otsutsuki clan in the future... : Linley

But that's where the problem lies... With your appearance, the Branches and Main Clan of the Otsutsukis will realise your threat sooner than expected... : Hagoromo

Ninshu isn't a way to spread discord to others but connect them and realise their potential and feelings... : Hagoromo

Bla, bla, bla... I know that anything new?? : Linley

Ninshu or Ninja Creed, were meant to give people a better understanding of themselves, as well as others, and lead the world into an era of peace. : Hagoromo

Linley was speechless, h thought what the hell old man i already told you i know all this bullshit and he stills tries to lecture me...???

I exemplified my teachings by distributing chakra meant to "connect" people's spiritual energies with one another. : Hagoromo

Hmm?? Spiritual energies?? Like Soul Force or Reiatsu?? : Linley

Soul Force or Reiatsu?? What are those?? : Hagoromo

Oh!! Finally answered back!!! Ermmm?? A special type of chakra i guess... : Linley

I didn't know it had others names... Anyway, my purpose for doing so was to allow people to understand each other without communication and pray for one another's safety. : Hagoromo

However, as i passed the Ninshu to Ashura, Indra was the first to weaponise it into the one called ninjutsu. :

I know, i've met him a few years earlier through his descendants... : Linley

Just as Hagoromo was about to continue he froze, and any words he had at the tip of his tongue he swallowed them back as he paid close attention to what Linley said to him...

You've met him?? : Hagoromo

Un, that was when i was fighting Madara, his current Reincarnation, I also wanted to meet Ashura from within Hashirama but didn't founf the chance to do so... : Linley

You can see them?? After so many reincarnations?? : Hagoromo

What's so surprising old man... You can, so why i can't?? : Linley
