Naruto: The dungeon I developed went viral throughout the entire ninja world.

Chapter 101 Hostile Takeover, The End of Fate

"Profits? It's all about profits! You...do you really understand what you're doing?"

Ashura was no longer composed; instead, he appeared anxious.

In the instant his will wavered violently, he instinctively resorted to his last resort.

It directly mobilized the karmic causes accumulated over thousands of years of continuous reincarnation.

The surrounding space distorted again, and an incredibly clear scene unfolded before Naruto's eyes.

It is the Valley of the End.

Two colossal stone statues, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, stand facing each other as the waterfall washes over them.

Above the statue's head, two figures are engaged in a final, desperate struggle.

One is Naruto himself, and the other is Sasuke.

The Rasengan and Chidori collided fiercely in mid-air, their black lightning and blue cyclones intertwining to create a destructive storm.

The scene shifts, and the two lie in pools of blood, each with a severed arm.

Blood stained the stream below, eventually forming a tragic seal of reconciliation.

"Do you see that, child? This is the end! This is the destiny of Indra and Asura!"

Ashura's words suddenly became excited, as if he were proclaiming a divine decree.

"This is an unbreakable cycle of hatred! No matter how hard you try in this life, or how much power you gain, you will ultimately face the fate of brothers killing each other! Only by accepting my path and using love to resolve this..."

"Destiny? Destiny my foot! I'm sick of hearing that!"

A cold laugh interrupted Ashura's tragic lament.

Naruto stood atop Kurama's head, gazing at the so-called vision of the future, his eyes unwavering, filled only with disdain.

"You keep causing one thing after another, aren't you tired, old man?"

Naruto pointed at the screen as if he were looking at trash.

"I am not you, and Sasuke is not that unlucky guy named Indra."

"We're just two employees who got screwed over by Konoha, and now we're either planning to switch jobs or become our own bosses!"

Naruto continued his verbal assault, seemingly determined to say something truly shocking.

"As for my bond with him? That's a betting agreement we signed with a ruthless capitalist!"

"Our victory or defeat doesn't depend on any bullshit destiny; it only depends on who can rise to the top in this ninja world faster."

"You...you actually compared the bond of souls to a transaction? How could you think like that? How dare you?" Ashura seemed unable to bear this blasphemy.

"Otherwise what?"

"In this world, there is no love without a reason, nor is there hatred without a reason. Even your Ninja Sect, isn't it built on the foundation of power distribution?"

"Now, the negotiations are completely over."

Naruto stopped talking nonsense; his patience had run out.

For such non-performing assets that cannot be communicated with, the best way to deal with them is through forced liquidation.

"Nine-Tails! Make your move quickly! His Dao heart is probably almost completely destroyed. We must strike while he's down and finish him off."

"Hoo! Here it comes."

"Kid! You said it yourself. Don't blame me if you burst."

The Nine-Tails couldn't wait to unleash its full power, and the Adamantine Locket underwent a strange change.

Dozens of chains pierced into the huge golden Buddha statue, like straws, drawing out and devouring it.

Ashura sensed his chakra rapidly draining away, and even more terrifyingly, the very foundation of his existence was about to collapse.

"What kind of power is this?!"

"If I had to put it this way, believing or not believing is greed," Naruto replied coldly.

The Nine-Tails' chakra flowed back along the chains, bringing with it a massive amount of pure golden chakra.

But these chakras also contain Ashura's will of love and forgiveness.

"Hmph, you want to assimilate me? Do you even have the ability?"

Naruto, with a disdainful expression, worked in conjunction with Kurama's malice to create a tight filter within his body.

Ashura's attempt to influence everything proved utterly ineffective when confronted with the Nine-Tails' power of hatred and Naruto's selfishness.

"No...this can't be...without love...power will only bring destruction..."

Ashura attempted a final struggle.

"It's so annoying, like a fly buzzing around incessantly. Shut up!"

Naruto roared inwardly.

"Your love can't save me, nor can it save Konoha! Only power, pure power, can keep me alive!"

The fragments of the will set by the Holy Mother were completely stripped away, leaving only the purest Yang Release life energy.

Subsequently, driven by Naruto's powerful will to prioritize self-interest and survival, these unclaimed energies began to reorganize.

Countless golden points of light overflowed from the Buddha statue, flowing into Naruto's body like rivers flowing into the sea.

The path that Asura had inherited for thousands of years was so vulnerable in this era, in front of this young man.

"This...is not...the Way..."

Asura left behind his last complaint, which transformed into specks of golden light and completely dissipated into the spiritual space.

As Asura's will dissipated, the blood-red sky gradually calmed down.

Naruto slowly opened his eyes and found that he had not returned to reality, but was now standing inside the sealed space.

Nine-Tailed Fox lay comfortably in the golden ocean, its eyes half-closed. Its fur became even shinier, and its size seemed to have increased.

Nine-Tails let out a burp and laughed, "It tastes good, although it's a bit too sweet, but it's definitely very nourishing. Kid, well done!"

Naruto looked at his hands.

He felt that his level of existence had been elevated. It felt amazing, as if he could easily perceive the rhythm of all living things around him if he wanted to.

Behind him, several black spherical phantoms faintly appeared, the prototype of the Seeking the Dao Jade.

Although he did not inherit the Sage of Six Paths' heart, he forcibly unlocked the Sage of Six Paths' power through violent plunder.

"Is this... the power of the Six Paths? It feels very weak, but it's better than nothing."

"No, this is my power. It's an asset I acquired."

The real world, the illusory training ground.

Tsunade and Jiraiya had been waiting to return to the Illusion Mirror Dojo for a while, and were now staring nervously at the closed metal cockpit, barely daring to breathe.

Three hours have passed.

"Why haven't they come out yet? Could something have happened?" Tsunade asked anxiously.

Roy remained seated behind the counter, his expression unchanged throughout.

The system notifications are refreshing rapidly, one after another, but thankfully they're all good news.

[The will of the higher-dimensional spiritual entity Ashura Otsutsuki has been detected and has been erased by the host Naruto. The Destiny Virus has been formatted.]

[Host Naruto has successfully absorbed Ashura's chakra core, and the Uzumaki Sage Body has advanced from an incomplete version to a perfect version!]

[Six Paths Yang Release Power Unlocked (Beginner)!]

[Congratulations, host! For successfully guiding and assisting the Chosen One in breaking the millennium-long cycle of fate, you have obtained the special achievement, Devourer of Fate!]

[Unlocks the unique title: Six Paths Capitalist (When equipped, all transaction profits are increased by 50%, and the ability to persuade or convince characters in the story is greatly enhanced).]

[A dramatic shift in fate's trajectory has been detected... Settling accounts...]

[Fate Points +100000!]

"One hundred thousand points..."

Roy didn't dare show his elation, feeling that it was not just a windfall, but also meant that he was one step closer to his dream.

As long as the mind does not slip, there are more solutions than difficulties.

Even the Sage of Six Paths' son was "eaten" by Naruto. What else is impossible in this ninja world?

Just then, the hatch of the metal cockpit slid open, and all eyes were drawn to it.

Immediately afterwards, Naruto Uzumaki emerged from it, seemingly unchanged.

But Tsunade and Jiraiya were both stunned for a moment. It wasn't that there was no change; their demeanor had completely changed.

If Naruto before he went in was a sharp sword with its edge fully exposed.

Now, he possesses a tranquility that comes from returning to simplicity.

Naruto ignored the shocked looks from Tsunade and Jiraiya.

He walked straight to the counter and looked at Roy, who had a smile on his face.

Naruto's gaze was frighteningly calm, as if he were scrutinizing his investor to confirm whether the deal was truly worthwhile.

"Store Manager."

Naruto spoke, with an air of absolute confidence.

"I have completed the asset restructuring."

Roy's smile grew even brighter.

"Congratulations, Naruto. Now you truly have the qualifications to be a chess player in this cruel world."

Naruto withdrew his hand, feeling the power that belonged to him.

"So, store manager, who's the next acquisition target...?"
