Otsutsuki Naruto

Konoha.

It has been a full hundred years since the establishment of the village by the Shodaime Hokage Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara. It should have been a day worth celebrating.

But now, the entire Konohagakure is empty.

Dilapidated buildings and streets everywhere.

Today's spring day seems to have entered the depression of autumn.

Withered leaves littered the streets.

Dense vines spread from front to back of the village.

In the old Hokage office, the walls have long since been worn out, entangled with vegetation. The Nanadaime Hokage Uzumaki Naruto, who is now over half a century old, is sitting at his desk, quietly, looking at the desolate world outside the window.

A Truth Seeking ball is covering the sky as if expanding infinitely.

At this moment the entire Elemental Nations have perished, as a result of the powerful Otsutsuki Yara swallowing all its energy through his Divine tree.

By now all traces of life have disappeared from this land.

Even the three holy lands weren't spared.

He survived, but that was Kawaki's last desperate struggle to save him.

In other words, it delayed his death by half a minute.

In a few seconds, when this Earth-sized Truth Seeking ball falls, the planet would disappear from the starry sky forever.

This time, there is no other possibility.

Even if he once created countless miracles.

At the age of seventeen, he and Sasuke defeated the almost immortal Kaguya Otsutsuki, and at the age of nineteen, he single-handedly destroyed Otsutsuki Toneri.

At the age of thirty-two, he faced Otsutsuki Momoshiki and Otsutsuki Kinshiki.

After that, neither Otsutsuki Urashiki nor Otsutsuki Isshiki could stop his stride.

But this kind of miracle is limited.

In his first battle with Isshiki, Kurama helped him achieve the Baryon mode and barely defeated Isshiki.

However, this resulted in his best friend's death. Even with the tailed beast's peculiarity, after using the Baryon mode, there was no possibility of resurrection.

He, who lost Kurama, and Sasuke, who lost his Rinnegan, had to retreat to the second line.

At this time, their strength has peaked. Even after working hard after the defeat of Kaguya, without Kurama or the Rinnegan, they only had the strength of Hashirama and Madara during their lifetime.

With that kind of strength, if it was before, they could walk sideways through the whole world, and be invincible for generations.

But in front of the Otsutsuki, especially Yara, the God of Otsutsuki, it is nothing.

Without the Rinnegan, without the power of the Otsutsuki, even the once revered Super Kage is nothing but an ant.

The main force has become his son, Boruto, who inherited the power of Momoshiki through his karma, and Kawaki, who inherited Isshiki's Power.

But even then, their power is barely up to par. An insurmountable moat separated them from the all-mighty Yara.

Boruto and Kawaki gathered all the power they could, but they were still defeated.

In the end, they were fed to Yara's abnormally powerful Divine tree, along with everyone on earth, including the three holy lands, to become nourishment.

And it was Kawaki who barely saved his life.

But only for a few seconds.

Otsutsuki Yara, who just ate the fruit of the Divine tree and thus has absorbed all the planet's energy, has become even stronger. He was half a step through the next level.

And for Yara, who was about to transcend, this world was Meaningless.

There was only destruction left.

The planet-sized Truth Seeking ball is enough to showcase his power.

*Sigh…*

" It's time to see Hinata, Sasuke, Bouto, Kawaki, Father, Mother… "

" Unfortunately, I'm still too weak. "

" If only… "

As he spoke his last words, the gigantic Truth Seeking ball started falling, and his field of view turned black.

Uzumaki Naruto thought of his wife, his friend Sasuke, his father, and his mother…

He also thought of what happened that year.

Back then… If he could get to know him a little better.

Maybe, today's scenery would be different.

The peculiar nature of the world makes it difficult for the power of the Otsutsuki to be born on this small piece of land.

He originally had many opportunities to step into a higher level, but in the end, because of various reasons, he missed them all.

' If I did… '

It would have been different now.

His thoughts came to an end.

Naruto's grizzled thinking fell silent.

The sky started shattering.

Time and Space also started rioting. Its volatility started spreading.

The aura of the Dragon Veins that originally tainted him from his journey to Loulan started boiling.

Then, on his body, a strange turtle shone with blinding light.

It is Karasuki, an Otsutsuki treasure. back then, it broke subsequently to Sasuke's Time travel.

But at this moment, it seemed to come alive.

" Detected User! "

" Uzumaki Naruto! "

" Identity bound successfully! "

" Final Space-Time beacon activated! "

Tremendous Chakra erupted instantly.

And in this Chakra, The Space-Time Continuum fluctuated violently.

The surrounding Space started shattering little by little.

On Naruto's decaying body, an illusory figure emerged and escaped into the Space-Time hole.

A soul from the end of the world gathered into his youth.

It was a forty-year leap.

Forty years ago.

At that time, the young Uzumaki Naruto had already graduated, the mission to Nami no Kuni was completed, and the Chunin exam passed.

That year, the young Naruto fought against Sasuke at the Valley of the End to bring him back.

That year.

So many things happened.

Too many memories.

That year belonged to the story of Uzumaki Naruto.
