Naruto

The seventh Hokage, Uzumaki Naruto, finally opened his eyes.

"You're awake." A familiar voice came to Naruto's ears. He turned his head and saw a blond boy sitting next to him, looking at him with concern. The other person's six paths spread from his facial features to his cheeks.

The whiskers and whiskers are exactly the same as when Naruto was young. The only visible difference is the dark green vest on his body that represents the jounin level.

"Who are you?" Naruto supported the edge of the bed with both hands, trying to stand up, but the sudden severe pain in his upper arm prevented him from succeeding.

"Cixian's black stick caused considerable damage to the Nine Lamas in your body, and your body's self-healing ability will be temporarily reduced as a result." The young man walked to Naruto's bedside and took his right hand, "But

Now that you have regained consciousness, I can now help you speed up your recovery."

A golden flame ignited from the young man's palm and penetrated into Naruto's skin. A warm current flowed throughout his body, and his wounds healed rapidly under the influence of this power.

"Why are you..." Naruto asked in a daze, looking at the cross-shaped pupils in the young man's eyes, feeling the senjutsu chakra pouring into his body.

"My story is quite tortuous. If you are willing, you can let me tell you slowly while undergoing treatment."

Fifteen minutes later, Naruto put on his daily orange coat, sat beside the hospital bed, and sighed softly: "So that's it."

"I'm just a wandering soul, but I took over your body, took your name, and stole the life that should have been yours." The young man raised his head and looked directly at the pair who seemed to only appear in the mirror.

With his blue eyes, he said softly, "I'm sorry."

From the young man's red eye circles and absent-minded gaze, Naruto could see the pain that the latter had suppressed for many years. He stretched out his bandaged prosthetic limb and hugged the young man into his arms, with a look of relief on his face.

Smile: "I don't blame you."

The boy's body only stiffened for a moment, then relaxed quickly, resting his head on Naruto's not-so-generous shoulder, and murmured: "Thank you."

At this time, Naruto suddenly felt a wave of chakra coming from the front. He looked up and saw a white-haired ANBU wearing a mask appearing out of thin air behind the young man, smiling and waving to him.

"K...Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto's eyes widened in disbelief, "When did you join ANBU again?"

"He came here with me. He is only twenty-nine years old this year, and he is younger than you are now." The boy patted Naruto on the back, broke away from his arms, and asked the white-haired ninja

: "Kakashi-sensei, have you finished the work with Shikamaru?"

"Well, I added the function of detecting spatial disturbances to Konoha's original barrier, and Shikamaru agreed to lift the ban on Kawaki and allow him to move freely in the village." Kakashi whispered, "But

Given that we still know nothing about the wedge's role, he worries that today's troubles will be repeated in some unpredictable way in the future."

"Indeed..." The young man lowered his head and said dullly, "That mark is deeply imprinted on Boruto and Kawaki's flesh. Any form of interference may threaten the host's life, so I won't

Dare to study it carefully."

"Okay, let's think about the headache later. Let's say goodbye first, Naruto." Kakashi waved to the Seventh Hokage, holding the boy's hand and walking out.

"Hey! Don't drag me, Kakashi-sensei! I still have something to say to him!"

"Hiroto Hinata and Himawari are still waiting to meet their husbands and fathers. Do you want to interfere with other people's family reunions, idiot?"

"It seems to make sense, haha...then...then go and meet your family first. We'll meet at Hokage Rock at nine o'clock tonight!" The young man chuckled and waved hard at the seventh generation Hokage.

He waved his hand and disappeared in front of his eyes along with Kakashi.

"Family reunion?" Naruto walked to the window and looked at the bustling city that stretched to the end of his sight. However, his mind repeatedly replayed the tragic scene of devastation and death and injury after Pain's Six Paths invaded Konoha.

After nightfall, in the Konoha Village under the gaze of the bright moon, Naruto arrived at the Hokage Rock on time. Behind the portrait of Senju Hashirama, he saw the boy who shared the same name as himself.

"I didn't expect that just over ten years later, the night scene in the village would become so beautiful." The young man admired sincerely as he looked at the brightly lit city below.

"Yes." The elder Hokage walked up to the young man and looked down at the entire Konoha Village side by side with him. His face showed the joyful expression of a father who saw his children growing up. "This is what we hope for."

Long-lasting peace.”

"Peace without the support of strong force is like morning fog. A slightly stronger wind can blow it away." The young man added calmly.

"Yes, you are right." The smile on Naruto's face gradually faded, and there was a hint of helplessness in his deep voice, "I can't even protect my own son now, so where can I find the strength?"

How about protecting the peace of the ninja world?"

The young man looked at the tired look on Naruto's face, gently pressed his shoulders, and said comfortingly: "I will help you fulfill your wish."

Naruto smiled bitterly, and was about to say something, but suddenly his expression froze, his eyes fixed on the business district of Konoha Village, and his whole body tensed up.

"Don't be nervous. In order to ensure that the next words are not eavesdropped, I cut the time flow around us from the main time sequence, so you will feel as if the time in the entire world has stopped." The young man's gentle words made

The Seventh Hokage relaxed and said, "I heard Sasuke talk about your ability to manipulate time before, but I didn't expect that you could do it to such a terrifying extent."

"Oh, these abilities are not as powerful as you think in terms of combat. If you had even the slightest resistance to me just now, this ability would not take effect. There has never been a truly incomprehensible ninjutsu." The boy shook slightly.

Shaking his head, he brought the topic to the main point, "What I'm going to say next, you must keep every word strictly confidential. No one can tell it except Sasuke."

"I understand." Naruto nodded solemnly. The young man raised his right hand and pointed at the bright moon hanging high in the sky: "Otsutsuki Toneri, who once had a conflict with you because of Hinata and was later beaten awake by you,

In order to protect Boruto, who had not yet grown up, he fought with Fu Shi, and he was sealed in the Ryugu Castle on the moon by the latter using the secret technique unique to the Otsutsuki clan."

Toneri Otsutsuki is a descendant of Hamura Otsutsuki, the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths who reshaped the world. After the two brothers successfully defeated Kaguya, the Sage of Six Paths took on the task of reshaping the world, and Hamura volunteered to come to the moon and guard it for generations.

Kaguya's body was sealed in the moon, a heretic demon. Unfortunately, his will was misinterpreted by his descendants, who believed that the world created by the Sage of Six Paths was a failure and should be completely destroyed. As the last descendant of Hamura, Toneri was in the fourth

Two years after the Second Ninja World War, he launched an attack on the earth, took away the Byakugan of Hinata's sister Hinata Hanabi, and fused it into the Tsansei Eye, and wanted to kidnap Hinata and marry her. Naruto finally relied on his own training to

He entered the sage mode and inherited the strong physique of the Uzumaki clan's bloodline. He traveled through the cryogenic vacuum of space and flew to the moon. He worked with Hinata to defeat Toneri, convinced him to understand the true meaning of his ancestors, returned Hanabi's eyes, and retired.

Lived on the moon.

"Isn't Kamashi easily defeated by you and Sasuke? How could he be so strong?" Naruto asked doubtfully.

"That's because he despised a mortal child like me, so he was killed by me in a sneak attack. Besides, Toneri doesn't have the Tenseigan now, so he can't defeat Fusuke who can freely switch between the Rinnegan and the Byakugan. What's so strange about that?

of?"

"What do I want

How can we rescue him?" Naruto was silent for a while and asked bluntly.

"If it's a normal seal, I think it should be fine with so many ninjas in Konoha brainstorming. But if it involves time and space..." The boy took out a scroll from his ninja tool bag and handed it to Naruto, "

The ninjutsu recorded on it will erase all abnormalities in the time flow within a square radius of 500 meters. If it is a space-type seal, Sasuke will use the power of the samsara eye to exchange positions with Toneri, and then activate the space portal.

That's enough. You should take the time to fly to the moon as soon as possible to rescue Toneri. He should know more about the Otsutsuki clan than we do. You'd better not make any noise about this matter, and you'd better choose someone who is less conspicuous when you fly.

time point.”

"Even if Toneri cannot provide any valuable information, I must rescue him." Naruto put away the scroll and said firmly, "Thank you."

"Another matter involves the geographical location of Konoha Village. When the Shodaime chose the location of Konoha Village, he did not make a random decision, but had deep considerations." At this point, something suddenly appeared in the boy's body.

He caught the golden flame, formed seals with his hands, put the palm of his right hand close to the ground, and shouted softly, "Immortal method? Earth escape? Earthquake core!"

The soil beneath the two people's feet began to sink rapidly under the influence of magic, and it continued to fall for dozens of kilometers before stopping. In the large and empty cave, natural energy that was so rich that it was almost liquefied spread in the humid air around the two people.

among.

"I feel the breath of Six Paths Senjutsu." Naruto asked doubtfully, "Could it be..."

"This is the main dragon vein node used by the Six Paths Sage to reshape the world." The young man pointed to the tall fungus in front of him that glowed with a faint blue light and was shaped like a giant umbrella, and said softly, "And this is the seal added by the First Generation using Wood Release.

This is to prevent the dragon veins from endangering Konoha when abnormalities occur."

Naruto carefully observed the thick mycelium of the fungus and was amazed. The boy ignored the former's fussy reaction, but took out three special kunai prepared in advance and handed it to him: "The Otsutsuki clan is in Chakra 1

We can't match the talents on the Internet, but we can use local resources to improve our own strength. If you want, you can leave one Flying Thunder God Kunai here and the other on the surface, and use the remaining Kunai to

Wu, freely travels back and forth between the underground and the surface, using the energy of the dragon's veins to strengthen his body and mind, and develop new ninjutsu."

Naruto took the three kunai, inserted one of them into the ground without hesitation, and put the other two into his sleeves, and solemnly said to the boy: "Thank you."

Five minutes later, the two returned to the ground, and the time around them returned to normal flow. Just when the boy was about to say goodbye to Naruto, he suddenly heard the other party ask: "I heard from Boruto that the turtle still needs to be recharged."

Several days, where are you going to stay these days?"

"Ah, Shikamaru arranged accommodation for the three of us in a hotel. As for Kakashi-sensei, after the Sixth Generation returned to the village this afternoon, he invited him to stay at his home."

"Well, then, if you don't mind the crowd, how about staying at my house these days?" The thirty-two-year-old Hokage looked at each other expectantly like a child.

"This..." The boy hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "If Hinata and the others don't dislike it."

Naruto hooked the boy's back and said with a smile: "Hey, Hinata is a hospitable hostess. The food she cooks is delicious, I guarantee you will like it!"

The young man gave a look of disdain: "So you never cook at home? Do you want the eldest daughter of the Hyuga family to do housework for you every day?"

Naruto looked flustered and coughed a few times: "Ahem... I did a lot of housework before I became Hokage."

"Hey, you sloppy guy, I don't believe it..."

Naruto shouted angrily: "It's true! If you don't believe it, ask Boruto yourself!"

"Ha ha……"
