The Master of Konoha's Legacy

Even if others believe you, there's no need to tell the truth.

Uchiha Tonan simply explained that his opponent was the masked man from the previous Nine-Tails attack, and that after a fierce battle, the man escaped using space-time ninjutsu.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo at least outwardly believed what Uchiha Tonan said.

"Cuckoo~"

"Cuckoo~"

A majestic sun rose solemnly from behind Fire Shadow Rock.

The thin mist that enveloped the leaves gradually dissipated.

In a room of the welfare home.

Sunlight streamed into the room through a corner of the curtains. The person on the bed turned over, shielding their eyes from the light with their hand, and frowned as they opened their sleepy eyes.

My mind went blank for two seconds, then I yelled, "Run!"

Boruto suddenly sat up in shock, looking around blankly.

Just then, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Uchiha Tonan walked in carrying a plate, then knelt down in front of the low table.

While placing the breakfast on the table, he said with a smile:

"It seems you're recovering well. Go and eat something."

Boruto paused for a moment, then stood up and knelt down opposite Uchiha Tonan. He picked up a piece of pastry and placed it in front of him, looking up at the serene-looking Uchiha Tonan, and said weakly:

"Urashiki, were you and Sasuke defeated?"

Uchiha Tonan smiled slightly, pushed the congee towards Boruto, and said leisurely:

"No, he realized he couldn't defeat me, so he used a space-time ninjutsu to escape."

There's nothing I can do; space-time ninjutsu is my weakness.

Boruto nodded upon hearing this, his eyes slightly downcast, and said:

"I see... It's a pity I wasn't of much help."

After saying that, he put the pastry in his hand into his mouth and chewed it.

Uchiha Tonan smiled gently, reached out and ruffled Boruto's hair, encouraging him:

"It's okay. You'll definitely be better than you are now when he comes next time."

I'll be counting on you then.

Seeing Uchiha Tonan's confidence in him, Boruto's mood improved considerably. He gave Uchiha Tonan a thumbs-up and said excitedly:

"No problem! I'll cultivate properly for a while."

After saying that, Boruto picked up the congee and drank it in big gulps.

However, Uchiha Tonan's goal was not to help Boruto improve his pitifully small amount of strength, but to gain Uchiha Sasuke's approval through Boruto as an intermediary.

But Uchiha Tonan turned his head towards the window and said with a relaxed expression:

"The weather seems quite nice today."

I finished dealing with everything yesterday. How about I take you guys for a tour of Konoha?

You've finally made it to this era, but you haven't really explored much.

A balance between work and rest is the right way.

Upon hearing this, Boruto downed his bowl of congee in one gulp, slammed the bowl down on the table, and exclaimed excitedly, "Yay! I'll go get Mr. Sasuke!"

He immediately got up and ran towards Sasuke's room.

They forgot about cultivation in the blink of an eye.

It really is a piece of rotten wood.

Uchiha Tonan shook his head slightly, got up and followed.

Boruto excitedly ran to Sasuke Uchiha's room, only to find that Sasuke wasn't there.

After wandering around for a while, I finally saw Uchiha Sasuke standing on the rooftop of the Sunset Building, looking at the scenery, when I passed by the orphanage.

He immediately shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Mr. Sasuke, Grandpa Tunan wants to take us to visit Konoha. Please come down quickly."

Sasuke Uchiha lowered his eyes slightly, glanced at Boruto below and Uchiha Tonan who was slowly walking to Boruto's side, and said coldly:

"Sorry, I'm not interested in these things."

Boruto scratched his head awkwardly upon hearing this, then turned to Uchiha Tonan and said, "Grandpa Tonan, Sasuke is just like that. Let's go together."

Uchiha Tonan knew that Uchiha Sasuke was now wary of him, and that he couldn't rush things in terms of getting closer to him, so he immediately nodded and said, "Okay."

The two left the orphanage together, right before Sasuke Uchiha's eyes.

After the two figures disappeared from sight, Uchiha Sasuke frowned and looked up at the sky.

The winter sun is not glaring.

The white doves that used to scatter and fly in the sky in the morning seem to have disappeared.

The sky, devoid of birds, is left with only a faint sense of desolation.

A feeling of being out of place in this world rose from the depths of Uchiha Sasuke's heart.

That's so strange...

Uchiha Sasuke slowly closed his eyes.

My name is Uchiha Sasuke, and I come from the future.

I originally thought this time travel was simply to stop Urashiki Otsutsuki from seizing the Nine-Tails' chakra.

But to my surprise, this was not the world I lived in at all.

There is one more person here, a member of the clan who should not have appeared in history.

I originally thought he was someone who could save the Uchiha clan.

But gradually, I discovered that things were not as simple as they seemed.

Behind all appearances, there seem to be many unknown and terrifying truths lurking.

A clan that did not originally exist in history.

They monitor the entire Hidden Leaf Village at all times and are not at all surprised by the arrival of Boruto and me, two people from the future.

This always gives me a strange, unsettling feeling.

Especially the night before last, I sensed a spatial fluctuation.

If I remember correctly, that was Kakashi-sensei's Kamui.

The location of the spatial fluctuations is in the sky.

You should know that I've gathered a lot of information in the village these past few days.

Kakashi-sensei in this world did not receive Obito's Sharingan.

Moreover, what can Kamui do when it's released above the clouds?

Yesterday during the day, Urashiki arrived.

Actually, I didn't use my full strength at the time. I pretended to faint because I wanted to see what kind of strength that guy actually had.

That guy... is really strong.

Urashiki, who was a tough opponent for both Naruto and me, was completely outmaneuvered by him.

One ring after another, until finally the Pu-style seal was completely sealed.

But when I asked him about it, he said that Pu had run away.

Why did he lie to me? Why did he pretend to be blind...?

During this time, he also showed off his kaleidoscope eyes, with the same effect as Obito's.

Presumably, it was he who used the Divine Power the night before last.

Even Orochimaru didn't know that kind of toxin. Where did he get it from? And he even used Kamui to throw the toxin into the clouds.

Orochimaru!

Uchiha Sasuke seemed to have grasped a key point. He suddenly opened his eyes, glanced around at the surroundings, and after confirming that there was no surveillance, continued to ponder.

When he stood in front of me and Boruto, he reminded me somewhat of Orochimaru from back then.

He probably said Urashiki escaped so that Boruto and I could stay.

Could it be that he wants to obtain something...?

My eyes...

But why didn't he make a move yesterday?

Orochimaru of this era was supposedly killed by that guy.

Is there really anyone who can kill Orochimaru...?

Perhaps we could try to find him; if Orochimaru is still alive, he might know something.

It's too difficult to gather intelligence in Konoha; you can't get any core information at all.

Sasuke Uchiha narrowed his eyes slightly, and then vanished instantly.

When they reappeared, they had arrived at the edge of Konoha Village.

He ran quickly towards the edge of the village.

It wasn't until they reached a dense forest that Sasuke Uchiha stopped, reached into his ninja tool pouch, took out a scroll, and unfolded it on the ground.

Although the times are different, the spacetime coordinates on the psychic contract should be the same.

In other words...

Sasuke Uchiha's eyes narrowed, he bit his finger, formed a hand seal, and slapped the scroll.

Reverse psychic abilities.
