It should be painfully obvious from context alone where "Six Paths" comes from. Its literally a no brainer. How many people in this series get famous for abilties they use? Kisame, Shisui, Hagoromo, Nagato, etc, etc, on and on. Several, like Shisui, Kakashi, and Hagoromo, got nicknames based on their notoriety for using those powers.

The difference is people only knew who Hagoromo was through the legend of the Sage of the Six Paths, so they just called things associated with him "Six Paths". Like I said, even now, Naruto calls Hagoromo "Six Paths super gramps". Its just become part of who Hagoromo is. Kishi, like any other author in existence, expects his audience to have enough brain cells to put A together with B and understand the story.

I don't get why people are so opposed to linking some neurons together and just coming to a reasonable conclusion. That's part of what reading is, after all. /rant
