Minato asked curiously. He had been a Kage-level Ninja for a year or two now.
Although he was still very, very far from Six Paths level, he felt he still had a chance.
Torifu smiled at his question. "The changes are numerous! The first is the issue of lifespan. After ascending to Six Paths level, my lifespan has greatly increased. I should be able to atleast live to be over a hundred years old."
This point wasn't particularly useful to Torifu. Just two Life Fruits could already let him live for nearly a century longer, making the lifespan increase from ascending to Six Paths level appear insignificant.
Minato was also aware of the Life Fruits, so he wasn't particularly surprised by the lifespan increase.
"And what else? What else! That can't be the only change, can it?"
Torifu shook his head. "How could that be? I'm not finished yet."
Then, Torifu vanished under their gaze, reappearing back at the dinner table in the next instant.
Their eyes had barely locked onto him before Torifu was already lying back in the rocking chair, humming a tune leisurely.
Minato didn't even blink, staring intently, but he couldn't figure out what had just happened.
"B-Big Brother, this is even stronger than the Flying Thunder God!"
Torifu instantly moved in front of Minato. "That was just a small-distance demonstration. In fact, I can travel directly to Amegakure and return, all in a single instant."
Everyone took a sharp breath upon hearing this. With their current strength, it would take at least one full day to travel to Amegakure and return.
Yet, after ascending to Six Paths level, it only took an instant!
"So strong! Is there more?"
Minato grew more and more excited. Not only him, but Yahiko, Konan, and even Naori were extremely excited.
Although Yahiko and Konan hadn't reached Kage level yet, they were close, and naturally yearned for a higher state.
As for Naori, after Akihara was born, she had fallen behind in her training due to managing the household and caring for Akihara.
She hadn't yet reached the peak of Kage level.
However, now that Akihara was older, Naori had more time to train.
She might still be able to strive for it in the future!
"Try attacking me."
Torifu said confidently to Minato.
Minato didn't hesitate. His Big Brother had already ascended to Six Paths level, and he didn't believe his Ninjutsu could inflict any substantial damage on him.
A Rasengan instantly formed in Minato's hand, and he fiercely pushed it toward Torifu's chest!
But halfway through the push, Minato found he couldn't move it further.
He looked up and saw that Torifu was being protected by an unknown black material.
Unwilling to give up, Minato increased his Chakra output, but it still didn't budge.
In the end, he had no choice but to stop.
Torifu saw this and removed the protection of the Truth-Seeking Balls.
"This is the most important component of the Six Paths level, the Truth-Seeking Balls. They are formed by the fusion of Chakra and can be freely extended and transformed into any shape. They can even carry you step by step up into the sky."
As Torifu spoke, he demonstrated the various patterns and shapes of the Truth-Seeking Balls for everyone.
"But they actually have a very serious drawback, which is that they are vulnerable to Sage Jutsu and Taijutsu. There's no way for them to effectively block these two things."
Minato was excited and wanted to try it out, but Torifu refused.
"I was referring to the ordinary form. Each of my Truth-Seeking Balls contains the equivalent Chakra of three or four Kage combined."
"If your Chakra isn't sufficient, then even if you use something that counters the Truth-Seeking Balls, it will be useless."
Having cold water poured on his enthusiasm, Minato immediately wilted. "Well, okay. I feel a bit defeated now."
Torifu then returned to the dinner table and sat down. "That's essentially it. After ascending to Six Paths level, I feel the whole person is much lighter. The restraints from the world have also lessened, allowing for true freedom."
Or perhaps this was due to Torifu's increased strength and confidence.
Currently, the Shinobi world held no significant dangers for Torifu.
After all, the Ōtsutsuki Clan wouldn't arrive in the Shinobi world for several decades.
By that time, Torifu would have likely cultivated numerous Six Paths level Ninja.
Furthermore, having been at Six Paths level for seven years, Torifu could feel his strength steadily increasing, not stopping.
This meant that there was still room for improvement at the Six Paths level. Could there be an even higher state?
Torifu wasn't sure. Thinking about these things now seemed pointless. It would take at least twenty or thirty years to reach the peak of Six Paths level, so thinking too much about it now wouldn't help.
"That's wonderful. I never imagined that the Six Paths level would be so spectacular. So, Big Brother, can you call yourself the Sage of Six Paths now?"
Torifu hadn't thought of that. Moreover, the Sage of Six Paths was a title given to Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo by later generations.
Torifu was too lazy to think about it and decided to simply keep things as they were.
Besides, he had no intention of making his ascension public, so what was the use of a title?
Was his family going to call him by a title every day? No way, the thought alone was embarrassing.
"It's meaningless. Let's not waste time on such things."
Torifu then pulled the conversation back on track. They were supposed to be discussing entering the alternate world.
The sudden return to the main topic left everyone's minds slightly adjusting.
Thinking back to the alternate world, they felt as if they had missed a section of memory.
What alternate world? What Six Paths? What were all these things?
A seemingly ordinary day had been filled with so many fantastical events.
"Well, okay, Big Brother, I agree to let Minato go with you. Please, you must protect him."
Kushina was finally able to relax a little now. With a Six Paths level person protecting him, what was there to fear?
And Minato wasn't just for show; his strength was top-notch.
At least in Konoha, he might not be number one, but he could definitely rank in the top ten.
His strength had long surpassed that of some older Clan Heads, and no Ninja in his generation could surpass him.
Only the talents or veteran powerhouses like Sakumo, Dan, Nawaki, and Hashirama were still stronger than Minato.
However, they either had their own positions or had already retired.
Therefore, the position of Hokage could only fall to Minato. This was undeniable, and the entire Konoha fully endorsed it.
In response to Kushina's trust, Torifu nodded and smiled. "Don't worry. I raised this child myself, and I'll take good care of him. When we return, he'll probably be a father."
