As Naruto's voice faded, the Nine-Tails in the sealed land fell silent.
After a long silence, Kurama nodded: "As the leader, I naturally have to unconditionally trust my subordinates. Naruto... you're a human I acknowledge, don't die!"
……
Shinra Tensei!
Under the third repulsive force, Naruto in Nine-Tails Mode finally got close to Pain.
However, the next moment, Naruto's body seemed to freeze, and all of the Nine-Tails' chakra was drawn back into his body.
A sudden wave of exhaustion washed over me, my whole body ached, and my internal organs were gradually collapsing.
"puff!"
Naruto spat out a mouthful of blood in front of Pain, then slightly raised his hand and met Hinata's gaze.
"I... cough! I said... I would protect you with my life!"
"boom!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto collapsed to the ground.
Hinata, whose neck was being choked, was unable to make a sound, but tears kept streaming from her eyes.
Pain glanced at Naruto, and at that moment, the four Akatsuki members walked over from behind.
"Even a perfect Jinchūriki, with the physique of the Uzumaki clan, still cannot withstand such a massive amount of chakra."
"Your fate was sealed long ago. Kid, your body is on the verge of collapse. Death is inevitable."
As soon as she finished speaking, a powerful burst of ocular power erupted from Hinata's eye sockets.
Suddenly, the entire surrounding landscape began to shake, and the space itself seemed on the verge of collapse.
However, the next moment, the black iron rod pierced Hinata's heart and was casually tossed aside next to Naruto.
“Naruto… Naruto-kun…”
In a weak voice, Hinata's hand finally clasped Naruto's.
……
In reality, at the Seventh Training Ground.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Seeing Yun frown slightly, Itachi quickly asked the question.
This genjutsu test concerns Sasuke's and his own fate, and such a method can only be successful once, so he can't help but worry.
Yun looked at Hinata under the tree stump: "The ultimate power of the Byakugan is indeed very strong. Just now, when Naruto was about to die in the genjutsu space, the power it unleashed almost distorted the genjutsu..."
Itachi looked at Hinata with some surprise. Her face was still covered with tears, indicating that she had just cried quite a bit.
"The ultimate power of the Byakugan... it can actually shake the illusion space constructed by your eye power?"
Yun nodded and replied, "All of Uzumaki Sora's abilities in this illusion were deduced based on Hinata's eyes. But his power... it seems we still underestimated it."
Upon hearing this, Itachi pondered for a moment: "We lack time, we lack the time to let them grow."
As Itachi spoke, his gaze shifted to Sasuke…
The stone tablet beneath the Nanga Shrine in the Uchiha clan's territory, Yun had told him about the contents on the back.
In pursuit of stability, a deity divided Yin and Yang into two opposing poles. These two elements, in their opposition and interaction, give rise to the myriad phenomena of the universe.
This statement implies the limits that Sasuke can reach.
The eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is not the end. As the Uchiha clan, who inherited the Sage's eyes, the Rinnegan, the eyes of the Sage of Six Paths, may need some catalysts.
The eyes of the clouds... are the best example.
"Next, only Sasuke is left, right?"
Yun nodded: "When the space shook for the first time, the scenes they experienced had already separated. After all, although that kid was a bit of a chuunibyou, he was quite similar to you, quick-witted."
"If he finds out now, it won't be fun. After all, if we could just activate the Kaleidoscope right away, there would be no need for the later plot."
As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto and Hinata, who were leaning against the wooden stake, showed signs of waking up.
……
Chapter 295: Opening One's Eyes
Is this what death is?
My chest feels cold, and I'm finding it increasingly difficult to breathe.
A bright light appeared, and Hinata frowned.
Will there still be light in the Pure Land after death?
Being able to die alongside Naruto-kun is already a great blessing.
But the village...
And there's also Father, Neji, and Hanabi is still so young. I hope that in the end, Kumo-nii can defeat those enemies...
and many more!
Hinata suddenly felt the warmth in her palm. Was that Naruto?
In the seventh training ground, Naruto, leaning against a wooden stake like Hinata, had a furrowed brow.
Even with the Fox Boss's power, am I still no match for those people? Or is my body too weak to withstand even the Fox Boss's power?
otherwise……
I'm sure I can protect Hinata!
"If you're awake, open your eyes. This isn't some kind of pristine place; it's just that the midday sun is a bit strong and dazzling."
The sudden sound startled Naruto. Was it Brother Yun's voice?
How can it be?
Even someone with Brother Yun's strength couldn't defeat that group of people?
"boom."
A sudden pain shot through his forehead, and Naruto's brows furrowed even more. How could someone who's already dead still feel pain?
Yun squatted down and looked at Naruto, frowning as he said, "Ichiraku Ramen is having a big promotion today. Buy one bowl and get one free, limited to the first fifty people, first come, first served."
As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto opened his eyes and tried to exert himself, but found that he couldn't muster any strength.
"Help me up, I'm going to eat Uncle Yile out of house and home."
As Naruto spoke, he looked at Yun, his mind momentarily blank, and didn't react: "Yun... Brother Yun? There's Ichiraku Ramen in the Pure Land? Uncle Ichiraku can actually open a branch in the Pure Land?"
At this moment, Hinata, who was standing nearby, also opened her eyes. After looking around, she asked in the same puzzlement, "We...we're not dead?"
Yun stood up and smiled at the two of them: "Congratulations, you passed the test!"
???
Naruto and Hinata exchanged a glance, both somewhat bewildered.
After thinking for a moment, Naruto said to Hinata, "I heard Dad mention something before. Akatsuki's plan is to pull everyone in the world into a genjutsu. So... even those who are already dead will be dragged in here?"
Naruto ignored Yun's dark expression as he spoke, but Hinata hesitated for a moment before saying, "But...we were indeed taking our graduation exams before those people attacked the village. Could it be..."
Yun reached out and tapped Naruto's forehead again: "I think there might still be some problems with your brain. You need to go back to school for further studies. I can take care of the two members of Team 7, but you should repeat the year. I'll tell your mom about this later."
???
In an instant, the scene of Kushina roaring appeared in Naruto's mind.
It's absolutely... chilling.
Naruto shuddered, scratched his head, and laughed, "Just kidding... Brother Yun, you've already used this kind of genjutsu to test us, so it's not too much for me to joke around, is it?"
Yun remained expressionless: "But I really want to send you back to stay for another year. Do you think I'm joking?"
"Brother Yun...I was wrong!!"
TO
……
After a long while, Naruto and Hinata finally recovered somewhat.
On the seventh training field, Naruto looked at Sasuke, who was still unconscious: "So Sasuke's test isn't over yet?"
Naruto then looked at Itachi and said, "If it's just a genjutsu by Brother Yun, Brother Itachi doesn't need to be so nervous, does he?"
Yun handed Naruto a water bottle and a bento box: "Eat something to recover. You're pretty smart if you don't act silly."
At this point, Yun sighed, his six-tomoe Rinnegan eyes still maintaining the output of ocular power.
"This assessment was actually prepared for Sasuke. He and Itachi were under a lot of pressure, and they were also the backbone of the fight against those people in the future."
After a moment's thought, Naruto replied, "Sasuke is indeed getting anxious because he hasn't awakened his Sharingan yet. After all, without using the power of the fox boss, I might not be able to defeat Sasuke..."
Hinata looked at Yun, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "The eyes of Uzumaki Sora in the genjutsu... are they the same in reality?"
Yun nodded: "The so-called ultimate power of the Byakugan, the information about these eyes we obtained entirely from Uzumaki Sora. It was based on this that we finally allowed you to activate these eyes."
"But Uzumaki Sora definitely knows more about it than we do. And the chakra of the Sage of Six Paths' offspring in Naruto and Sasuke must also be there."
"In reality, Uzumaki Sora's power is only stronger than in the genjutsu space. Having obtained the power of Yang Release chakra like the First Hokage, these eyes are no burden to him at all."
Yun paused here, then added, "Furthermore... in these three years, it seems that Uzumaki Sora's deal did not take place in Konoha. We have no idea what new powers he has gained."
As soon as he finished speaking, both Naruto and Hinata had serious expressions.
As the new Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Naruto is well aware of the power of the fox boss within him.
It's just that my body couldn't handle it; otherwise, I might not have lost to those people in the illusion.
But even with this power, it was only half of the Nine-Tails' chakra. Uzumaki Sora, on the other hand, possessed the entire Nine-Tails' chakra.
Hinata, standing beside her, felt the same way. She could sense the power contained in those eyes, much of which she had yet to discover.
She still can't fully grasp even simple repulsive and attractive forces.
