Chapter 72
The Destined Savior, Yin-Yang Escape, and Six Forbidden Techniques!
Mo glanced down at the black cover of the ancient book, picked it up but did not open it immediately.
"What is this?"
"It fell off my bookshelf when I was looking for literature. It looked unfamiliar, so I brought it home. But when I opened it, there was nothing inside except a bunch of runes I couldn't understand. One time, I suddenly thought that maybe I could try it with my Sharingan... Anyway, you'll see when you see it. If it were you, you would definitely see more."
As he spoke, he took a sip of water and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
"..."
Mo turned his gaze back expressionlessly. He had roughly understood what was going on halfway through the conversation, so he no longer had much expectation for the so-called "ancient book" in his hand.
"Whoosh—!"
As the pages turned, Mo's eyes instantly turned crimson.
In ancient times, the concept of chakra did not exist, and humanity constantly fought each other. Suddenly one year, a divine tree descended upon the earth and has been worshipped by humankind for generations…
"Whoosh..."
Mo flipped through the pages extremely quickly, and as he had expected, the contents were the inscriptions on the stone tablet that Black Zetsu had altered in order to bewitch Uchiha Madara.
However, on a certain page, the content was different.
[The Goddess of the Rabbit, pitying the suffering of humanity, sought peace and stability. Before her death, she divided her power and wisdom, bestowing her immense chakra and ocular power directly upon her grandson Indra, while her wisdom became Indra's guide...]
"..."
Thus, the Sage of Six Paths' lack of understanding prevented Indra from completing his mission, but he still refused to give up. On his deathbed, he could only inscribe the method to save humanity on a stone tablet...
Uchiha Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression unchanged, but his mind was racing.
Almost instantly, he completely figured out Black Zetsu's scheme.
Clearly, Black Zetsu has completely regarded Mo as Indra, and even placed his hopes for the Eye of the Moon Plan on Mo...
As Mo continued flipping through the book, he discovered that the section on "deception" had ended, and the rest of the book...
Mo's eyes suddenly narrowed, his gaze fixed on the three large characters on the opening page—Yin Yang Escape!
Yin-Yang Release! It's not Yin Release nor Yang Release, but the complete Yin-Yang Release!
One of the highest-level powers in the entire Naruto system!
Nagato and Obito could use Yin-Yang Release to create chakra rods; Madara could use Yin-Yang Release to create an embodiment of his own will; Naruto could use Yin-Yang Release to create new eyes for Kakashi and extend the lives of Might Guy and Obito; and the Sage of Six Paths could even use Yin-Yang Release—the Technique of Creation of All Things—to split the Ten-Tails into nine!
(Reference material, ps: The only effect of Yang power is to activate the Six Paths Earth Explosion Star.)
Uchiha Mo calmed himself down, glanced at the remaining thickness, and continued flipping through the pages. But when there were about fifty pages left, the content changed again.
"..."
"Six Forbidden Techniques..."
Most of the so-called Six Paths Forbidden Techniques rely on the power of the Rinnegan. They not only possess great power but also facilitate the rapid control of the Rinnegan's power.
Techniques like Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life, Earth Explosion Star, and Super: Divine Rasengan are all considered basic Six Paths Forbidden Techniques.
Further up the hierarchy, the Six Paths Ten-Tails Coffin Seal, the Infinite Tsukuyomi, and even the Six Paths Chibaku Tensei, which can only be activated by two people, all fall under the category of forbidden Six Paths techniques.
In the original story, Obito also obtained these abilities from Madara.
Furthermore, unlike Yin-Yang Release, which can be used to a certain extent as long as one's Yin-Yang Release level is strong enough, the Six Paths Forbidden Techniques must rely on the power of the Rinnegan to be successfully activated. This is why the existence of the Rinnegan is so important to Black Zetsu, Madara, and Obito.
To successfully become the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki and activate the Infinite Tsukuyomi, one must possess the Rinnegan!
In addition, mastering the Six Paths Forbidden Techniques is also beneficial for enhancing the Rinnegan's "Outer Path Power," that is, the host's own power.
Mo Weiwei narrowed her eyes, her expression revealing a hint of hesitation.
"Is this to make me believe what's in the ancient books...?"
However, when he turned the page again, the content suddenly turned into incomprehensible gibberish, and he could no longer see any content.
"Is it over? How much content did you get to see?"
Seeing this, Setsuna, who was sitting opposite, suddenly asked a question.
Mo closed the book, his scarlet eyes returning to a clean black, and raised his head to reply:
"About a quarter of them are still invisible."
Setsuna nodded. "As expected of you. I saw that Indra's chakra was already at its full power when it was constantly reincarnated in his descendants, that is, the Uchiha clan..."
As he spoke, he suddenly pointed to the black ancient book on the table.
"Since that's the case, you can keep this book. Although I had foreseen that the fate of the Uchiha would not be so simple, I never expected it to be like this... Oh well, at least it proves that you are indeed that special person."
Mo looked at Sha Na, who had completely believed him, without replying.
Clearly, due to the difference in what she saw, Setsuna still regarded him as a reincarnation of Indra's chakra, similar to Madara.
However, Mo was not going to argue anymore. Originally, he wasn't interested in playing role-playing games with Black Zetsu, but now he had changed his mind.
A smile appeared on his face as he stood up.
"Now I can finally rest easy. From now on, if you have any needs for the clan, just tell me directly. Also, regarding that matter you mentioned before, I think it's about time to start building momentum..."
Mo nodded, and seeing this, he turned around and walked towards the entrance with a sense of relief.
Seeing this, Shisui spoke up to persuade him to stay:
"Elder, are you leaving already?"
"Yes, you haven't seen Mo Ye in a long time, have you? I've returned him to you, Xiao Zhishui."
He chuckled and joked for a moment, then opened the door and left.
"Snapped!"
The door closed again, and Mo turned to look at Zhishui.
"Shisui, it's time to cook."
"Hmph! I don't want to!"
Zhi Shui walked over and sat down opposite Mo, turning her head away as if in a huff.
"An elder brother who breaks his promise doesn't deserve to enjoy the food his younger brother makes!"
"..."
"Heh~"
Uchiha Mo stared at the sulking Shisui and suddenly chuckled, then raised his right hand and rubbed Shisui's head twice.
"I'll take you with me on the next mission."
"real?"
Shisui turned around and asked with some suspicion.
Mo nodded. "Really."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shisui revealed a smile.
"Okay, then I'll trust Nissan one more time."
After saying that, he got up, broke free from Mo's big hand, and ran quickly into the kitchen. Soon after, he brought out a table full of dishes with excellent presentation.
Clearly, even if Mo hadn't made that promise, Shisui had already prepared lunch...
No one spoke at the table as the two brothers quickly finished their lunch.
Just as Zhi Shui was about to get up and clear the table, Mo suddenly called out to him.
"Shisui, did you read the letter and scroll I had the crow give you a while ago?"
"What is this?"
"It fell off my bookshelf when I was looking for literature. It looked unfamiliar, so I brought it home. But when I opened it, there was nothing inside except a bunch of runes I couldn't understand. One time, I suddenly thought that maybe I could try it with my Sharingan... Anyway, you'll see when you see it. If it were you, you would definitely see more."
