Chapter 259 - Chapter 259: Beyond Kage Level

"Is that the planet we live on?"

Hearing their words, Shishou nodded with a smile.

Suddenly, Anko's loud voice came from afar.

"Hey, come look at this huge crater over here!"

Upon hearing this, Pakura quickly drew several ink eagles, carrying everyone into the air and to Anko's location.

"Uh..."

Seeing the crater spanning several kilometers, Mikoto, Rimei, and the others were stunned.

"Shishou, is this where you fought with the Otsutsuki clan?" Pakura asked in shock.

"Yes, these craters are the handiwork of the Otsutsuki."

Shishou looked at the massive craters before him, feeling nostalgic.

If he hadn't found the location of Hamura Shrine and transferred the giant Tenseigan to cut off the Otsutsuki father and son's chakra, even with his current strength, dealing with such massive meteor attacks would have been quite tricky.

In that case, winning would have been much more difficult.

"So impressive..."

Hyuga Natsu stared at the scene in awe.

"Only you, Shishou, could handle such attacks," Mikoto said, looking at Shishou with admiration.

The level of this battle was no less than what they saw in the Valley of Death.

And there were several such craters in their view.

"Are the Otsutsuki clan really that powerful?" Anko asked curiously, looking at the craters on the moon's surface.

Hearing Anko's question, Shishou felt it necessary to explain the capabilities of the Otsutsuki clan and the concept of Six Paths to the women around him.

This would help them be prepared and avoid suffering a significant loss in the future.

With this in mind, Shishou explained to the women around him, "The Otsutsuki clan has Hamura's bloodline, allowing them to obtain Six Paths-level power for a certain period. They are incredibly strong."

"In my view, above the Five Kage level is the super-Kage level."

"And above the super-Kage level, there is an even higher realm."

"I call this level the Six Paths!"

"Six Paths?" Except for Hyuga Rimei, the other women were stunned by Shishou's words.

It was the first time they had heard Shishou mention the Six Paths.

Moreover, they hadn't expected there to be a level above the super-Kage.

Seeing their confusion, Hyuga Rimei explained, "What Shishou means by Six Paths is having power comparable to the Sage of Six Paths."

The Sage of Six Paths...

Does that mean these Otsutsuki are on the same level as the Sage of Six Paths?

If Shishou defeated them, doesn't that mean he's even more powerful than the Sage?

Mikoto, Pakura, and the others were shocked by Rimei's explanation and stared at Shishou in amazement.

"Master Shishou, you defeated the Otsutsuki clan. Does that mean you also have Six Paths-level strength now?" Hyuga Natsu asked, blinking at Shishou.

"I defeated them by using clever tactics," Shishou shook his head, denying Natsu's assumption. "With my current strength, in terms of levels, I'm actually only at the super-Kage level."

Even though Shishou's current strength could wipe out villages or countries single-handedly,

as long as he hadn't awakened the Rinnegan to gain Six Paths power, unable to use or counter Truth-Seeking Balls, he considered himself only super-Kage level.

Because Truth-Seeking Balls, for those without Six Paths power, are a devastating force!

Shishou dared to confront the Otsutsuki clan because he had the Flying Thunder God time-space jutsu.

"Shishou's current strength is only super-Kage level... That's terrifying," Pakura said, looking at Shishou in shock.

If Shishou's strength was considered super-Kage level, Pakura doubted she could ever reach it.

Mikoto nodded in agreement, feeling Shishou's words were daunting.

Although Mikoto believed that with her Mangekyo Sharingan and Hashirama's power, she could handle the Five Kage except for the Third Tsuchikage,

if Shishou's current strength was only super-Kage, then she and the others might only be considered standard Kage or elite Jounin level.

Hyuga Natsu and Anko exchanged a shocked glance.

To them, Shishou's strength seemed godlike, making any thought of resistance futile.

Shishou smiled and said, "Though it may be disheartening, it's the truth."

"Let me show you what Six Paths-level power is truly like."

"Don't resist."

With that, Shishou's Sharingan appeared, casting a genjutsu to recreate his battle with the Otsutsuki.

They needed to understand the terror of Six Paths-level power to better prepare for future attacks from the Otsutsuki clan.

With Shishou's genjutsu, the scenes before Mikoto, Pakura, Rimei, and the others changed, as if they were present during his battle with the Otsutsuki.

This novel experience made them admire Shishou's genjutsu skills.

Then, seeing the Otsutsuki casually shatter the moon's surface with a Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, they were all stunned.

When Shishou's Susanoo was shattered by the Otsutsuki's Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion in a few strikes, Mikoto's breath hitched.

Susanoo was her trump card, yet the Otsutsuki had broken it with two blows.

When the Otsutsuki used Planetary Devastation, the immersive experience left the women speechless. Hyuga Natsu couldn't help but grab Shishou's clothes.

Finally, Shishou recreated the scene where Toneri split the moon with Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, leaving the women in awe.

"This is Six Paths-level power..."

"And Shishou defeated them..."

When the genjutsu ended, Pakura stared at Shishou in a daze.

How strong is this man?

'So Tsunade-sama has also been won over by Shishou...'

Mikoto and Anko recalled the giant slug from the genjutsu, understanding.

Though they lived in Fire Source City, they had heard rumors about the ninja world, but they had never been certain.

Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin, had been an idol for young women in Konoha, including Mikoto and Anko.

Now, their idol had become their sister, leaving them unsure how to feel.

Among the women, only Hyuga Rimei was excited about the potential of awakening the Tenseigan like the Otsutsuki.

According to Shishou, once she awakened the Tenseigan, she would have Six Paths-level power like the Otsutsuki.

Thinking this, Hyuga Rimei looked at Shishou with excitement and nervousness and asked, "Shishou, can I really awaken the Tenseigan?"
