unable to ping ipv6 addresses - Network is unreachable

When I try to ping/traceroute/ssh ipv6 addresses, I always get Network is unreachable.

For example, googles ipv6 address is 2a00:1450:4001:806::200e

Ive tried checking some files on my machine.

Code:cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/forwarding
cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/forwardingboth return 1

Code:ip addr show

2: enp0s20u1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether 00:11:11:1f:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.9.100/24 brd 192.168.9.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute enp0s20u1
valid_lft 79147sec preferred_lft 79147sec
inet6 fe80::Masked-For-Privacy/64 scope link noprefixroute
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
Code:nmcli device show enp0s20u1

IP4.ROUTE[2]: dst = 0.0.0.0/0, nh = 192.168.9.1, mt = 100
IP4.DNS[1]: 192.168.9.1
IP6.ADDRESS[1]: fe80::Masked-For-Privacy/64
IP6.GATEWAY: --
IP6.ROUTE[1]: dst = fe80::/64, nh = ::, mt = 1024
IP6.DNS[1]: fe80::Masked-For-Privacy
I feel like my ipv6 isnt routing properly or somthings not enabled.

What should I do?
