Naruto: I, who fooled the ninja world, was hailed as a savior.

Chapter 142 Hueco Mundo! The Lonely Naruto Uzumaki...

Boom! !

I don't know how much time passed; maybe only a few seconds, maybe as long as a century.

In the midst of this terrifying roar, the passing of all life was silent, and the passage of time was also silent.

As the deafening roar subsided and the dust cloud that had obscured much of the sky slowly rose, the scene of the meteorite impact's core gradually came into view.

"..."

Hanzo appeared in the area, staring at the scene before him with his mouth agape.

Are you kidding me? What happened?!

A meteorite was seen deeply embedded in the earth's surface, emitting scorching heat and a pungent odor.

The entire area was deathly silent. Life, buildings, terrain... everything had vanished, leaving only the twisted and swirling rock layers and ashes drifting in the wind.

The very few surviving ninjas who were far enough away from the point of impact collapsed to the ground, their minds blank as they stared blankly at the hellish scene.

They couldn't even feel the relief of surviving the ordeal; all that remained was a deep-seated fear and bewilderment.

"Damn it! 'Kage' and Nagato..."

Hanzo seemed to realize something, his body suddenly shivered, and he cried out and ran over.

Could those two guys be here too?!

However, the moment he rushed toward the meteorite, in the dead silence of the meteorite's center.

laugh!
A dark red beam of light, condensed to its extreme, pierced through the meteorite without warning.

Like a precise cutting laser, it carved a smooth-edged channel through the hard meteorite.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Immediately afterwards, several figures, like ghosts, leaped lightly out of the steaming passage pierced by the Cero, landing steadily on top of the meteorite.

The leader was naturally 'Shadow', who was dressed in a black robe. The hem of his robe fluttered slightly in the scorching air, and the shadow under his hood could not even illuminate the red light emitted by the meteorite.

Beside him, the pale body of 'Uzumaki' looked even more eerie under the red light. Nagato's Rinnegan swept across the battlefield below, which had been completely turned into a mess.

Kakuzu and Miyajo En's faces showed lingering fear of surviving a disaster, but even more so, astonishment and disbelief at the power of the 'vortex' and the people in the sky.

"Is this what you call clearing the field? You knew all along that guy in the sky had this ability?" Kakuzu said in a deep, hoarse voice, "You are a complete madman."

If it weren't for that female-shaped monster using that spell again, forcefully melting a hole in the meteorite, none of them would have survived.

No matter how many hearts he had, he couldn't possibly survive under the terrifying force of the meteorite.

In contrast to Kakuzu's lingering fear, Nagato stood there silently, contemplating everything that had happened.

How was that man in the sky able to use Shinra Tensei?

Also, isn't the Rinnegan's Universal Pull only capable of what it is now?
This is the downside of not having read books.

He never imagined that the gravity of the Rinnegan could be used to pull a meteorite off.

The gravitational pull of the Universal Pull can also create a force similar to the repulsive force of the Shinra Tensei.

"Is this what 'Shadow' wants me to see?"

Nagato raised her head and took a deep look at the figure in front of her.

Or is he reminding me that the ninja world is not so simple, and that even possessing the Rinnegan does not guarantee the fulfillment of one's long-cherished wish?
"Aren't you still alive?"

The 'Shadow' still stood there quietly, its tone smiling, completely ignoring Kakuzu's resentment, looking down at the desolate wasteland below, which had been completely flattened and was devoid of any life.

This battlefield, along with all the struggling lives on it, whether from Konoha or Sunagakure, has now fallen into utter silence, with countless ninjas losing their lives.

At this moment, he could feel that the limited space of the Box of Bliss was already full.

This time we really made a great haul.

"Unfortunately, the space in the Box of Bliss is ultimately limited." 'Shadow' sighed inwardly, "As expected, we still need to wait for Orochimaru to find the 'Space-Time Hole'."

The current Bliss Box is like a palace; no matter how spacious it is, it is still limited and cannot compare to an independent otherworld like Mount Myōboku.

Moreover, what's the deal with a bunch of low-class spirits crowding into his palace?

We still need to find the "Time Hole" as soon as possible and drive those outside the Espada out...

“Vortex,” 'Shadow' suddenly said. “Go back to Hueco Mundo and keep an eye on those guys for me.”

Upon hearing the words "Hollow Night Palace," 'Vortex' paused for a moment, but quickly realized that this was the name of that space. It lowered its head slightly and replied, "Yes, sir."

Having said that, under the watchful eyes of Kakuzu and the other two, it turned around, raised its hands, and once again tore open space, creating a hollow, lifeless black cavity, and stepped into it.

"You didn't... what is that?"

Hanzo's figure appeared on the meteorite. Just as he was about to ask something, he happened to see the black cavity close up, and his pupils shrank involuntarily.

"nothing."

'Shadow' casually brushed it off, lifted her foot and walked forward, where she saw the figure that had fallen onto the meteorite.

The father of Ōtsutsuki Toneri.

At this moment, he had lost half of his body, blood flowing on the scorching surface of the meteorite, his body shrouded in rising blood mist, and his life force had weakened to the extreme.

But he is still alive.

Hearing footsteps approaching from afar and seeing 'Shadow' approaching, his unfocused pupils narrowed slightly.

"cough!"

He opened his mouth as if to say something, but only vomited blood in vain.

"As expected of a pure descendant of Otsutsuki Hamura, his vitality is truly tenacious."

'Shadow' walked closer, looked down at his disheveled state, and laughed: "It's a pity that vitality that is not commensurate with strength is also a waste."

As he spoke, under the astonished and angry gaze of the man's father, he raised his foot and gently stepped on his neck.

"rest assured."

'Shadow' bowed slightly, looked at his hate-filled white eyes, and chuckled softly, "I will extract your soul and make it into a creation just like that woman's."

"When your son returns to the ninja world, you, whose memories have been erased, will kill him."

The father's unfocused pupils contracted, and he spoke with fear and anger, "You... Pfft! Cough!"

Click!

Before he could finish speaking, 'Shadow' gently twisted his neck with his foot, breaking it.

As a soul was forcibly pulled into the Box of Ecstasy, a smile appeared on 'Shadow's' shadowy face. So be it, let it struggle and devour within the Box of Ecstasy, fueled by hatred.

I look forward to the day you meet Otsutsuki Toneri.

With that thought in mind, 'Shadow' put the corpse into the scroll, turned to look at Nagato and the others, and said with a smile, "From now on, this place is yours to handle."

Before Hanzo, Nagato, and the others could respond, his figure vanished from their sight like a pencil ink stain erased by an eraser.

(The following plot is from episode 700 of the original anime and manga, and is not a conspiracy theory.)
Meanwhile, unaware that most of the ninjas on the front lines had been killed, Konoha was peaceful as dawn broke.

"Huh...huh..."

Naruto used both hands and feet to climb the steep slope with difficulty, ignoring the cuts and scratches on his palms from the loose rocks.

Finally, panting, he climbed to the highest point of Shadow Rock and plopped down on the head of the huge, imposing statue of the Fourth Hokage.

The dawn's glow bathed the entire Hidden Leaf Village in a warm golden-red hue, wisps of smoke rose from the chimneys, and a warm glow shone through the windowpanes.

People came and went on the streets, children played and called to each other, and the aroma of food wafted faintly in the cool air.

This is a view that Naruto has seen countless times, a Konoha that seems to be enveloped in happiness.

However, none of this concerned him.

He hugged his bent knees, rested his chin on them, and curled himself into a small ball.

The autumn wind blew across the high cliff, carrying a biting chill that penetrated his thin clothes.

In the distance, a lithe eagle soars up from the forest, cutting through the golden sunset.

Naruto's gaze unconsciously followed it, watching it fly higher and higher, farther and farther away, a smile unconsciously appearing on his face...

But the next moment, another falcon took flight from below the rock face, calling out clearly, and joined it precisely.

They brushed past each other lightly in the rosy glow, flying together towards the distant sky, their posture graceful and free, full of tacit understanding and vitality.

The smile on Naruto's face gradually faded.

At this moment, the aroma of food, carried by the wind, faintly enters the nostrils.

goo...

A sudden groan came from his stomach, as if reminding him that his stomach was empty.

So Naruto pushed himself up, dusted himself off, and walked down the Konoha street.

However, when the small figure appeared on the street, the street, which was originally filled with laughter and joy, seemed to become a little quieter in an instant.

"I heard it's true..."

"That's the kid..."

The children who had been chasing and playing were pulled into the arms of the adults around them, and the women who had been chatting suddenly fell silent and gave Naruto strange looks.

The whispers were filled with malice and indifference.

The gazes from both sides of the street seemed to have erected a cold, invisible wall around him.

Although he didn't understand why, Naruto Uzumaki was already used to these words and gazes, and simply walked with his head down, trying to walk naturally step by step.

He was too young to understand those complex hatreds and fears, but he could clearly and acutely feel the bitterness and loneliness of being rejected by the whole world.

Then, a ball made a thud and came to rest right at his feet.

Naruto instinctively crouched down, reached out and grabbed the ball, then looked up, a bright, sunny smile spreading across his young face.

"Ugh, it's him, isn't it? He's really creepy..."

"Hey, don't hang out with him, who knows what he might do to you."

A piercing, sharp sound entered his ears. The man in front of him held his child's shoulders, his eyes lowered as he looked down at Naruto Uzumaki, his eyes filled with indifference and estrangement.

The cold words pierced his young heart, and the smile on Naruto's face froze instantly.

What did I do wrong?
I just wanted to return it to its owner...

That desire to be a part of it was crushed by that most straightforward statement, and the ball seemed to instantly become scalding hot.

He simply stood up stiffly, the ball in his hand falling to the ground.

Even though he was really hungry, he didn't go back to the bustling street. Instead, he turned around and left as he always had, sensibly staying away from places where people gathered.

My pace quickened, and I gradually went from walking to running.

The small figure stood stiffly, yet it revealed a stubborn and disheveled air as it ran towards the direction where the crowd thinned out.

He brushed past Sasuke Uchiha, who subconsciously turned his head to look and saw Naruto's departing figure, muttering, "Strange guy."

"That's the kid." The voices of adults talking reached my ears. "Have you heard? The Fourth Hokage died because of him..."

Did the Fourth Hokage die because of a child?
What the hell are these guys talking about?
Upon hearing this, young Uchiha Sasuke frowned, but still turned around without paying much attention, intending to leave.

But just then, a commotion behind him caught his attention.

Turning around to look at the sound, I saw a figure standing in front of the child.

It seems that the blond-haired child bumped into him.

Upon seeing the figure's face, Sasuke Uchiha instantly thought of that person's name.

That's a name that's been frequently mentioned by the clansmen lately, and they talk about it with sighs, envy, or anger.

—Hyuga Kumokawa.
