I founded the "Bragging Cult" in Naruto.

"Ding~ Special Talent [Immortal Body +100%], Pick it up?"

Tatsuma, engrossed in the experiment and technical explanation, suddenly stopped, glanced at the clock on the wall, and said, "Another dawn, and the battle over there seems to be over."

Tobirama Senju looked at Tatsuma, whose condition seemed to have changed again, and asked, "The aftereffects have appeared again?"

Tatsuma did not answer, and Tobirama, who knew that Tatsuma's current state would not affect his true form, did not press further, but simply said, "Your perception is indeed stronger than mine."

Tobirama, unaware that the battle was over, glanced at Tatsuma with appreciation and said, "Then let's hurry back to the battlefield."

The Divine Tree imprisoned Might Guy, but it also became his breeding ground, ensuring his injuries wouldn't worsen. If Might Guy were to wait until the two beings released Infinite Tsukuyomi and the Divine Tree's Advent, without healing and control, he would likely be in serious trouble.

"That's what I was thinking too, but... I'll go check on those two children. Second Master, I'll leave it to you to go to the battlefield first and bring Might Guy back as soon as possible."

Don't worry.

Tobirama nodded and vanished instantly. Tatsuma glanced at the clone with normal vital signs and also used the Flying Thunder God Technique to leave.

The Valley of the End, a place whose topography had been altered decades ago, has now undergone a dramatic transformation. Not only has the terrain changed, but even the climate seems to be subtly chaotic.

Exhausted, Naruto's already heavy body suddenly felt even heavier, and the first rays of dawn he was about to greet were blocked. With a bruised and swollen face, he looked up and exclaimed in surprise:

"Uncle Tatsuma!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, it seemed that he touched on the wounds on his face and body. He instantly started to grimace and looked at Tatsuma pitifully, hoping that Tatsuma would treat him.

After all, Tatsuma's medical ninjutsu was the most advanced he had ever seen, but Tatsuma shook his head helplessly and said, "I don't have that much chakra and life force to heal you right now."

After saying that, his gaze swept over Naruto's intact hands and landed on Sasuke, who was lying on the ground and struggling to get up. Although he was in a sorry state, there was no intact skin left on his body.

But with all four limbs intact and no problems, Tatsuma nodded. It seemed that his favoritism towards Naruto had finally paid off, as the two didn't even fight to the very end, and Sasuke was decisively defeated.

Sasuke looked utterly dejected and said, "I'm sorry, Fourth Hokage, I didn't."

My expectations for you are not for today, but for the future.

Tatsuma crouched down and patted Sasuke on the shoulder. Sasuke was deeply moved, but the sharp pain in his shoulder made his expression contort and twist. Tears and snot streamed down his face, and it was hard to tell whether they were from being moved or from the pain.

"Don't move anymore, or you'll get hurt again. I'll send you back to the battlefield first. Sakura is over there and can heal you. Or you can end the Infinite Tsukuyomi and let my teacher and Karin heal you."

Tatsuma first took Sasuke back to the battlefield, and then turned back. After all, he had left the Flying Thunder God seal on Naruto, and if he took Naruto away first, he would not be able to return in a short time.

On the battlefield, those who were still conscious gathered around when they saw Tatsuma bring the two back, treating them while asking about the results.

Sasuke closed his eyes resignedly and said, "I lost."

But he soon opened his eyes again, because he did not feel the embarrassment he had imagined; he seemed much more at ease.

He turned his head and looked at Naruto, who was grinning from ear to ear because he had admitted defeat. His cheeks suddenly flushed, and he said, "Loser, I only lost to you once. I'll win back."

"I'm waiting! But next time, we can't use the same stakes; it has to be between the two of us."

Naruto tried to suppress his smile, but it couldn't help but betray the smugness of someone who had achieved something great. Sasuke snorted, raised his hand to form the Rat Hand Seal, and said impatiently:

"Last-place finisher, what are you waiting for?!"

"What? Oh! Right!"

Naruto also reacted and formed the hand seals. The two looked at each other and mobilized their chakra once again.

"Infinite Tsukuyomi! Released!"

The power of the Rinnegan and the power of the Tailed Beasts transformed into waves that rippled outwards from the two of them. The surrounding divine trees withered rapidly, and the allied ninja forces that had been bound fell off one by one.

Although they regained their senses, they were still bewildered as they looked around until they saw that Tatsuma and the others were standing, while Uchiha Madara was lying lifeless on the ground. Only then did they realize what was happening and cheered.

Some laughed, some cried, but all were relieved that the war was over.

This Ninja World War lasted for a very short time, but its ferocity far exceeded that of any previous war. Even veterans like Onoki, who had weathered many storms, were cheering and jumping for joy.

"Click~"

"My back hurts!!!"

Tatsuma walked to Kakashi's side. He was in a similar state to Hashirama Senju. Hashirama was guarding Madara Uchiha's body, while he was guarding Obito's body.

Tatsuma reached out and opened his hand, revealing his two Sharingan eyes to Kakashi. Kakashi stared at him with his single eye open. Tatsuma said:

"Kakashi with the Sharingan shouldn't end today."

"Understood, Fourth Hokage."

Kakashi took the Sharingan, then reached out and touched Obito's scarred face, saying, "Sorry, Obito, I'll have to go look for you and Rin later."

Amid cheers, the Sage of Six Paths, carrying the spirits of the past Kage, arrived beside Tatsuma. The Sage of Six Paths spoke:

"Sakamoto Tatsuma, thank you for everything you've done for this ninja world. Perhaps you've received your due reward, but thank you nonetheless."

Tatsuma nodded, accepting the Sage of Six Paths' thanks, as well as the underlying apology. The Sage of Six Paths looked at Hashirama and the others, and said:

"Everything that does not belong to this world of the living should also return to the Pure Land."

Tatsuma didn't immediately respond to the Sage of Six Paths' request. Instead, he looked into the distance and after a while said, "There's no rush. Shouldn't we at least have a cup of tea before asking for help?"

The Sage of Six Paths smiled and nodded, saying, "You still have time for a cup of tea, but given your health, can you hold on?"

"Yes, there's still time to have a cup of tea."

Tatsuma smiled, and the Sage of Six Paths said, "Then I won't bother you any longer. Goodbye."

"Goodbye?"

"Hmm, I now find you quite interesting. You are welcome to visit this ninja world anytime as a friend."

After speaking, the Sage of Six Paths' figure gradually faded, and the previous shadows summoned from the Pure Land also disappeared. Looking at the crowd in the distance, Tatsuma stretched and felt a sense of relief.

But soon, Shikaku appeared out of nowhere and said, "Tatsuma, since you're not leaving anytime soon, you'll be in charge of the follow-up work. Lady Tsunade has already publicly announced her retirement."

Tatsuma's expression stiffened, but he quickly realized something and his gaze fell on Kakashi, who was burying Obito beside him. Kakashi suddenly shuddered, turned his head, looked at Tatsuma's malicious eyes, and said:

"Fourth Hokage, what do you want to do?"

"Kakashi, do you want to be Hokage?" (End of Chapter)
