Chapter 387 The Sage of Six Paths was thoroughly scolded!
From the content currently circulating, it is not difficult to see that these words are not the opinions of one or a few people.
Based on the comments that "those who think it's great" following each post, we can infer that this is a place with a population several times, tens of times, hundreds of times, or even more than that of the Ninja Clan, or even the world they inhabit.
Hagoromo Otsutsuki was curious about why these people, who seemed to know the future and possessed more knowledge, so decisively stated that mutual understanding between people was clearly impossible.
In this timeline where "Indra awakens the Sharingan," the Sage of Six Paths deduced from the text in the comments that those people meant Indra and Ashura would become enemies in the future.
But at least for now, Yu Yi doesn't believe these nonsense claims, since it's an undeniable fact that Indra dotes on his younger brother Ashura.
Meanwhile, in another new mirror wall, Indra, whose timeline ends after the Ninja Clan successor trial, is gradually being drawn in by the barrage of comments.
Despite numerous opinions, some still believe Ashura is more suitable as the successor to the Ninja Sect, while others think their father's choice was correct, or even that he is too cold-hearted and unsuitable to inherit the sect.
Unlike the few supporters in the Ninja Sect, Indra saw a huge number of followers supporting him in these comments: 62349 people thought it was great! 93475 people thought it was great! 89271 people thought it was great!
And not the rabble surrounding Asura!
How dare those people criticize their father, the Sage of Six Paths, so directly!
And that way of speaking, as if standing from the perspective of the gods, and knowing the future!
All of this made it hard for him not to want to know how others viewed the situation outside of his father's absolute authority, the Ninja Clan.
I understand his way of governing the Ninja Sect.
He doesn't understand!
The result of the trial —
Why did Asura, who took longer to defeat, win?
Ironically, the village he helped ended up being destroyed!
Is this really his fault?! It's clearly those people who lack ambition and rely solely on him!
[There's no right or wrong; only the victor has the right to speak. Ashura may not be right, but Indra might not have done better. Both paths, emphasizing the group and focusing on individual ability, have their own hidden dangers and pitfalls.] 10+ people found this very helpful. [Ashura insisted on human compassion and pursued a spirit of dedication where one person inspires everyone, but Indra was more realistic. He believed that rule-breakers would inevitably emerge in the future, and that no amount of kindness could change them. He believed that only absolute ironclad laws could govern the diverse human race.] 10+ people found this very helpful. The Ninja Sect Successor Trial End Timeline—
"Is that so, brother!" Ashura, who had just received the title of heir to the Ninja Clan, looked at these comments and wanted to persuade his brother again, "Why are you so pessimistic, brother? As long as you exchange sincerity for sincerity, I believe—"
"Shut up, Ashura!" Indra angrily flashed his Sharingan at his brother. "Take a good look at what those people are saying about the future of the Ninja Sect you've been supporting! The war has never stopped! A thousand years from now, there will be no way for hearts to connect with each other!"
In the timeline of the Fourth Shinobi World War, watching the Allied Shinobi Forces ninjas arguing like brothers a thousand years ago, one wonders if it's appropriate for her to speak to these ancestors so rashly. But Yamanaka Ino, a girl from the Yamanaka clan, is certainly not convinced!
"Who says there's no way for hearts to connect?! Do you think our mountain tribe doesn't exist?!"
Although it was complicated to explain, Shikamaru still reminded Ino, "The Yamanaka clan and the Nara clan hadn't even appeared in their time."
Choji, while eating the cucumber-flavored potato chips bestowed upon him by the all-knowing gods, reminded them, "Those two are probably the ancestors of the Uchiha and Senju clans, respectively. Suddenly seeing their faces and discovering their brotherly relationship must be the most painful thing for the ninjas of the Warring States period." After all, they had been fighting and killing each other for over a hundred years, and the fact that the two clans were once brothers might be even closer than the relationship between the Senju and Uzumaki clans.
It was only then that everyone remembered to look at the timeline of the Warring States period, especially the two elder clan leaders of the Senju and Uchiha clans who had just been rescued from the Infinite Tsukuyomi by Madara and Hashirama, who had suddenly grown up.
His expression was truly indescribable.
Clearly, seeing Indra, who resembled Madara, protecting Ashura, who resembled Hashirama, created a sense of identification that made both fathers feel inexplicably uncomfortable. To put it simply, it felt like their son had suddenly ceased to be their own.
Especially now that Hashirama and Madara are both around 1.8 meters tall, their power to destroy the world is so great that even when they release their chakra in anger, it can make the seven or eight neighboring ninja clans tremble!
What else could Uchiha Tajima and Senju Butsuma say about this?
Let's finish the tasks we owed earlier, so those two won't keep running to Nanhechuan!
The thought that they might be behaving as intimately as the brothers Indra and Ashura in Nanga River made the two old fathers turn green with rage.
[Indra represents the real world, Ashura represents the ideal world.] 10+ people agree. [Undoubtedly, Ashura's philosophy is more viable in the real world. He strengthens himself by leveraging the power of others, forming alliances, and cultivating relationships.] 10+ people agree. [From the Sage of Six Paths's biased inheritance, the Uchiha clan was basically doomed! With some kind of trial, Indra's inheritance was simply killed off by the plot.] 10+ people agree. [The Sage of Six Paths learned from his mother Kaguya's tragedy that true peace comes from the connection of hearts, not the suppression of power. His choice of Ashura was a complete rejection of the "power supremacy" approach.] 10+ people agree. "Exactly."
In the timeline of Indra's awakening of his eye, Hagoromo Otsutsuki saw his two sons rushing back from outside and sighed, "My mother, your grandmother, was someone who overly believed that one person's power could solve all problems, and ultimately lost her humanity—"
Fearing that his two sons would go astray, the Sage of Six Paths did not tell them anything about the Divine Tree.
The young Indra seemed to be deep in thought; with his wisdom, he already understood the meaning behind the comments.
Beneath his lowered eyelids, his crimson Sharingan surged with hidden emotions. He couldn't imagine that one day he would be fighting Ashura to the death for the position of Ninja Clan's successor. In a daze, he seemed to hear that voice echoing in his ears again: Losing love—this is the only way for you to gain power.
"So—did Father's heart already lean towards me before the trials even began?"
Ashura's childish voice boomed in his ears, pulling Indra's thoughts back to his father and brother.
"Asura, you—"
The young Indra could hardly believe his eyes.
His timid younger brother, however, displayed a clear anger directed at the Sage of Six Paths.
The small but incredibly strong Ashura, possessing the body of a celestial being, retorted with obvious discontent and anger: "If Father rejected my brother from the very beginning—then isn't the so-called fairness of the trial itself a lie?! This is so unfair to my brother!"
"Asura————"
The young Indra wanted to stop his brother from saying anything more.
Their father was busy with the affairs of the Ninja Clan and rarely had the opportunity to accompany his two brothers in person. As a result, even Indra had a sense of distance and the same sense of awe as the other members of the Ninja Clan when facing their father, Otsutsuki Hagoromo.
He feared that if Ashura continued speaking, it would displease their father. With his current strength, there was no way he could protect Ashura from their father's clutches.
Therefore, he wanted to stand in front of Asura and stop him from continuing to stand up for him.
But on this matter, the young Ashura was unusually persistent.
With angry little faces, they solemnly swore to their father, "I will not fight with my brother for things! If Father insists on forcing me to fight with my brother for things, then I will—" Compared to Indra, Ashura's brain was indeed not very sharp, not to mention that they were still children. They wanted to say something threatening, but they did not know how to threaten their father, the leader of the Ninja Sect, the Sage of Six Paths.
However, Ashura's attitude and his concise summary were enough to make Otsutsuki Hagoromo, who was watching the live stream, ponder whether his future self had truly acted unfairly in that trial.

The tailed beasts roared in fury, enraged by the barrage of insults directed at the Sage of Six Paths in the comments. The most agitated of them all was Kurama (the Nine-Tails), which slapped its claws against the orange-red ground, roaring at Naruto's consciousness, "Give me control of your body! Naruto! I'll teach these cowardly creatures a lesson they won't be able to find their way!"
While trying to suppress the boiling Nine-Tails chakra within him, Naruto helplessly advised, "Calm down, Kurama! You can't win an argument with them! They're experts at arguing, coming from the world of online flame wars! You're not good with words, you can't win against them!" Perhaps Naruto didn't understand what the internet was, but the ninjas could probably guess what "online flame wars" meant from the context.
But the enraged Nine-Tails wouldn't listen and insisted on controlling Naruto's body to rush to the barrage wall and engage in a cross-dimensional verbal battle with those "all-knowing gods".
"well----"
Tobirama Senju, who was forced by the comments to give Uchiha a good review, sighed deeply.
To be honest, he was actually quite restrained in his criticism back then.
To be honest, his thoughts were similar to those of the all-knowing gods. Regardless of the fact that Ashura was the ancestor of the Senju clan, as the second son, he should not have compromised on the matter of deposing the eldest son in favor of the youngest.
Izuna's Severe Injury Timeline —
Looking at the other timeline reflected in the mirror, and at the mixed reviews of the Sage of Six Paths, Indra, and Ashura in the sky, Uchiha Izuna snorted in dissatisfaction: "Hmph! If I were that Ashura, and Father insisted that my brother and I undergo some kind of successor trial, I wouldn't agree!"
"Stop looking at it, hurry up and give me the shop layout plan," Tobirama Senju said without looking up. "I've already prepared the residential layout for ordinary people." He raised a finger and pointed to a folder that had been placed on Izuna's desk at some point.
Uchiha Izuna was so angry his head was throbbing!
"You're too cunning! You have 48 hours more than me! How could I possibly catch up with you?!"
Tobirama Senju raised his head and looked at the bloodshot eyes of Izuna Uchiha.
"That's why I said give me the shop's layout plan. Is the general plan done? Leave the details to me."
This made Izuna feel embarrassed. After the main framework was completed, the details were not a key issue; it was essentially Tobirama Senju assisting him.
Although he felt embarrassed about it, he really needed to get a good night's sleep; otherwise, if he wasn't clear-headed, everything he did would be wrong and even more troublesome.
"Okay, alright, thank you so much." Thinking about it, she felt too embarrassed and insisted on adding, "Speaking of which, you should wish we both had 72 hours."
Tobirama Senju didn't reply to him. Instead, he decisively took the shop layout plan that Izuna handed him and began to quickly browse through it, pausing for a while in certain places to consider Izuna's considerations for such a plan.
"We all have 72 hours, that's what fair competition is. Your jump start is a foul—anything you don't understand? Let me make it clear beforehand, I'm doing this entirely according to the village's wishes, without any Uchiha personal bias. Don't try to speculate with your Uchiha conspiracy theories—"
Amidst Uchiha Izuna's incessant chatter, Senju Tobirama finally raised his head, his eyes filled with impatience and a hint of confusion.
"Are you not sleepy, or are you too tired to walk?" After a pause, Tobirama Senju asked, "Do you need me to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to send you back to sleep?"
"Uh—" Feeling defeated, Izuna deliberately shouted, "No need!" Then he slammed the door and left the Hokage Building like a dinosaur crashing into the street.
Madara and Hashirama, standing on the roof of the Hokage Building, were slacking off.
No, it's that they're spying on people through the barrage of comments.
Seeing Izuna storming off towards the Uchiha clan's territory, the two simply smiled and said nothing.
As they watched the comments, perhaps it was the chakra left in the two men by Indra and Ashura that caused the trouble. They desperately wanted to know how the all-knowing gods viewed this battle between brothers!
In the comments section—
[Whether Indra or Ashura wins, if we extend the timeline to a hundred or a thousand years later, the struggle will inevitably return.] 10+ people found this very helpful. [The Sage of Six Paths' idea of achieving lasting peace through unity and missionary work is childish and delusional. He hasn't even grasped the true nature of war before starting his missionary work. He thinks he can influence and motivate others to play along by sealing his power and becoming an ascetic. Reality is far more complex than he imagines.] 10+ people found this very helpful. [Honestly, Kishimoto's thinking is gently sealed by his middle-class upbringing. He doesn't have access to the dirty tricks of politicians, he's never truly gone hungry, and his parents dote on him and his brother! This "comfortable middle-class + harmonious family" setup directly leads to his political thinking remaining stuck in the traditional Shonen Jump formula: hard work! Friendship! Victory!] 10+ people think this is great. [Kishimoto really wants to think, but his brain isn't big enough. In a previous interview, he said that editors had advised him a long time ago not to delve too deeply into the theme of hatred. He didn't listen, and the result was a world of forgiveness—reconciliation with the world, reconciliation with oneself—] 10+ people think this is great. [Oda is the same way. Before he became famous, it was fine, but after he became famous, he started subtly incorporating his own views on world history. I wrote a long post on Zhihu before; you can check it out if you have time. The main plot of One Piece is about sunshine, positivity, ambition, unity, and love; the underlying plot is actually the Japanese view of world history and values, and the hidden plot is the Japanese realism embedded in One Piece.] 10+ people think this is great. [Wait a minute, the one who said Ashura's values are more suited to living in the real world—using the power of others, forming cliques, and cultivating relationships to become stronger?] Then you first need a father like the Sage of Six Paths, otherwise Ashura really doesn't have any unique personal charisma to make everyone follow him wholeheartedly. He just doesn't like studying and only thinks about how to run around and play with others all day long. In the real world, unless you are strong enough or have a strong background, you can only be loyal when you are young. When you grow up, without benefits, who will be loyal to you? 】10+ people think it is very good. A large number of comments fill the sky of the Ninja Sect.
This greatly shocked the Sage of Six Paths, as well as Indra, Ashura, and the disciples of the Ninja Sect!
