"Time to go." He said as he and sasuke appeared, Natsuko jumping back
"Show off." She said, wincing as her arm leaked blood onto the pavement, as she slowed the bleeding in her arm as she tied what remained of the hokage cloak around her arm to staunch the bleeding
"Are you so eager to return to death." Tobirama said, Natsuko glancing back, Her breath remaining the same as she concentrated on her arm. As she stood
"I've ironed out most of the kinks in that jutsu, he just caught me off guard when he hit Gai like that." Natsuko said,
"Let me see your arm you idiot." Sakura said not giving Natsuko a moment to say anything before grabbing her arm, nearly knocking Natsuko off her feet, as she moved the hokage cloak,
"Hey! Woah! Okay, Sakura just dont kill me" Natsuko said as she attempted to regain her footing, Sakura scoffing a moment
"I don't know how, but you stopped the bleeding successfully, I can mend the wound its a deep cut, surprised you didn't loose your arm." Sakura said and Natsuko hummed,
"It's the breathing techniques I use… I think I read about it Total Concetration breathing…" Natsuko said before looking over at the battle. Madara floating near the moon. Before looking back towards Gaara
"Gaara! Lets do it now! The time for the prophecy is here!" She said and Gaara nodded moving sand up from the ground quickly
"Sky-sand defensive wall!" He said as Natsuko gave a shrill whistle, calling a bird to her quickly
"Flare! Give the signal for the Susano's, go now!" She said the bird disappearing in what looked to be a firewall, screeching across the battlefield, before Natsuko moved gold chains from her back mixing with the sand
"Complete barrier." She says the barrier stretching over the shinobi forces with Itachi and his clan using their susano to further block the light
"How much of the battlefield are you guys covering?" Kakashi asked
"About… half? I think, Gaara?" Natsuko asked and Gaara nodded
"About half." He answered sure.
"What prophecy were you talking about?" Tobirama said
"The prophecy toad. Gave us a prophecy shortly after I took the title. 'The ninja world will face the biggest fight yet in a few years. Underneath the red moon, a being of great power will return, who will threaten earth's very existence. You who can never forget information once it is presented, even able to copy jutsu without the Sharingan, with your quick wit will be the main driving force in protecting the shinobi world alongside the one who cared for himself, holding the beast of Shukaku, with red kanji on his forehead, . and you who is known as the most unpredictable idiotic ninja will be the main force in driving this being of great power away, alongside a boy who's with eyes of red and black, a brotherly bond shared between the two of you. One covered in darkness will return to light and with him, 4 who have been sealed in deaths cold embrace, will return once more to the land of living, their help will be vital in the great calamity to come. The one of all black will turn on the one he calls a comrade, and through him, the being of great power will return. Once the being is defeated. Peace will befall the shinobi world for years to come' kinda lengthy but thats part of why I wasnt surprised to hear of your revival. Old man second, 1st hokage, dad" Natsuko said the chakra chains went from her back, circling around the forces they could protect.
"The one of all black will turn on the one he calls comrade… could it mean black zetsu is going to turn on Madara or has it already happened when he turned on Obito?" Minato said aloud, thinking
"Did you figure out who the being was?" Hashirama asked
"Honestly, we thought it mightve been the 10tail, but… well, I doubt itd be that simple" Natsuko said
"Me and my big mouth…" Natsuko said looking at the newly revived Kaguya, who floated near team7 Black zetsu having turned on Madara slicing through him to aid the revival of his mother, the susano, sand, and chains retreating as it was deemed safe outside finally. Natsuko going to step forwards
"Well let's go---*yelp* oof" she started before tripping over her own feet, Gaara sending sand out to catch her, Natsuko falling facefirst onto it
"Thnkyou" she said, Gaara humming in acknowledgement
"Graceful, milady" Itachi said
"I try" she said in response, before standing
"Our chakra is nearly depleted. We'd only be in the way if we head over there." Gaara said
"I hear you, but weve gotta … Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, Kakashi sensei, and Obitos chakra disappeared. Along with the weird woman." Natsuko said
"What do you mean they disappeared?" Lee asked
"Just that. I cant find them anywhere, Dad, Old man 2nd, Neji, can you guys find them?" Natsuko said, Tobirama placed his hand on the ground while Minato placed a finger near his chin, Neji activating his byakugan, the three shaking their heads
"My mother has transported them to a different timespace, Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha are the only ones able to seal my mother away. As the reincarnations of my two sons, Indra and Ashura." Hogoromo said, explaining the reasoning behind the reincarnation.
"So because you chose the younger son instead of the oldest and didnt specify reasonings, it sparked a millenium of reincarnation and hatred between the two, that about right?" Natsuko said, Hagoromo scratching his chin a moment having not expected the bluntness
"I… suppose that is one way to look at it…" he said, the conversation continuing for a few more moments
"If youd told me 3yrs ago that the fate of the world rested on Naruto and Sasuke getting along. I would have laughed" Natsuko said
"Indeed." Neji said sharing the sentiment
"I'm gonna try it" Naruto said to sasuke, as the group floated above magma in a new timespace, Kakashi hanging onto a kunai he stuck in the wall, alongside Sakura and Obito, Naruto sending a clone over to hold them from falling into the magma below, Sasuke rolled his eyes, before scoffing.
"Alright! Here's my… Reverse Sexy Jutsu!!" Naruto yelled as dozens of his clones surrounding Kaguya transformed into numerous naked men, jumping towards her
"YOU IDIOT YOU EXPECT THAT TO WORK?!" Sakura yelled as her nose bled, Kaguya's doing the same a moment later, as she looked around and saw the sexy jutsu, completely distracted she was unable to block Sasuke's next attack, being punched back
"IT WORKED?!" Sakura yelled in surprise before fainting back, Kakashi simply glancing over, an eyebrow raised
"Well, he has always been unpredicitble…" Kakashi said unsurprised by the outcome, before they were all thrown into an icy pit, another time space where snow seemed to cover every surface, a blizzard hellscape.
"You stand no chance against me." Kaguya said sure of her victory as Black zetsu chimed in from her sleeve, he was helping her in the fight, producing weapons and the like for her to fight with, forcing Sasuke and Naruto to remain on the defensive, dodging her attacks but unable to launch any of their own. The boys deflecting hits left and right as they charged forwards, Naruto using multiple shadowclones, though the black orbs seemed to stay with his original body. On the cliffside, Obito had finally started to regain consciousness. Kaguya took note of the orbs, making her way towards Narutos original body while trapping Sasuke in the ice, the boy having to use kamui to get out of the trap. Though, not before Kabuya used black zetsu to stab through Naruto who groaned as Kakashi and Sakura yelled for his safety. Before the shadowclone Kaguya stabbed poofed from existence, the black orbs moving around. Shocking everyone, as Kakashi and Sakura breathed a sigh of relief.
"Natsuko…" Minato said Natsuko looking over,
"There wasn't time to say earlier… not with all the fighting… but, happy birthday" he said and Natsuko grinned
"Thanks dad, ya know" She said,
"It is your birthday? How did I not know that?" Lee asked, Natsuko rubbing the back of her head
"Well it never seemed important, I mean, it's not like we really celebrate or anything" Natsuko said shrugging
"We must celebrate after the war is finished, Do you agree Natsuko?." Lee said shaking Natsuko lightly, as he'd grabbed her shoulders, Minato just sighing on the side,
"Sure, whatever you say just stop shaking me," Natsuko said, Lee releasing her
"Lee! She is still the hokage, you shouldn't shake her.." Neji scolded
"Right… sorry." Lee said,
"Its all good." Natsuko said shaking her head a moment to get her barrings, before shrugging,
"It just didn't seem important" she said looking off into the distance
"I hope he's okay… Sasuke and Sakura too, Kakashi sensei, they're fighting Kaguya Otsutsuki…" Natsuko said
"I'm sure they are" Gaara said
"Alright!!! Let's do it! SASUKEEEE" Naruto yelled as he ran over to where Kaguya was floating in the air, black zetsu in her torn sleeve on the ground, ranting and raving to Kaguya whom he called mother, to finish the fight, end it quickly.
"NARUTOOO" Sasuke yelled, Kaguya going to back away from their outstretched hands as the two reached for her, their clothes wearing more than a few tears from the fighting they just endured,
"Don't forget me, boys! CHAA" Sakura yelled hitting Kaguya's head downwards, stopping her escape backwards, as Sasuke and Naruto's hands touched both of her shoulders,
"This is it! Godseal! Planetary devastation!" Sasuke and Naruto said at the same time, Sasukes left arm and Narutos right being blown off in the rubble, from the force of the chakra. As the rocks from the timespace began to surround Kaguya, sealing her in a mountain of rocks, Naruto removed the pole that was stabbed into black zetsu to prevent his movement, sending him flying into the very same seal that Kaguya was being sealed into. Preventing him from manipulating the Uchiha clan any farther.
"Stop freaking out. I can get us home." Sasuke stated simply, looking at Naruto and Sakura, both of whom were freaking out about how they were supposed to get home, being in a different timespace. Sasuke put his hand out,
"Sasuke?" Sakura asked
"Don't question it, just put your hand in." He said, Naruto and Sakura following suit, with Kakashi placing his hand on top, Sasuke returning everyone to the battleground.
"Ah! Admit it you old fox! Youuu missed Naruto" Natsuko said laughing at Kurama's flustered form as he yelled the exact opposite, crossing his arms, Natsuko floating in front of his face using windstyle
"I did not! Shut up 5th Hokage!" Kurama said pointing a claw at her chest, Natsuko laughing
"Well would you look at that, I didn't think you could get flustered Kurama" Shukaku said, Hagoromo laughing from where he sat in his chair in the middle of the circle the tailed beasts at around
"Kurama!!! Did you miss me, cause I missed you!!" Naruto yelled jumping over the rubble, missing his right arm from sealing Kaguya
"What! Did you two forget that you have part of me sealed inside you still, shut up already! I did not miss you!" Kurama said flustered as he pointed to Naruto
"The look on your face says otherwiseee" Natsuko said before jumping down missing Kuramas clawed paw
"Shut up" he said simply, Natsuko laughing it off,
"Sasuke, let's undo the jutsu." Naruto said
"Right" Sasuke replied, the two performing the rabbit sign in unison, causing the tsukuyomi to unravel, Natsuko standing on the end of the Hokage, next to Minato, looking over at the two who'd undone the tsukuyomi. Hagoromo disappearing a moment later
"They've done it." Gaara said nodding towards the two, Natsuko nodded
"They did. They actually did" She said mostly in disbelief before walking towards the group
"Team 7… looks like…. The prophecy has been fulfilled. Amazing. Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura… Kakashi Sensei how do you manage to always look more beat up then they do?" Natsuko said, Kakashi laughing it off,
"Think I get a pass this time milady" he said and Natsuko laughed
"Seriously though, you sealed Kaguya away, and saved everyone caught in the tsukuyomi…good work" Natsuko said bowing her head a moment
"I couldnt have said it better" Jiraiya said as he came up with Minato
"Na, you dont give yourself enough credit pervy sage. You totally could have but it would probably have been way pervier." Natsuko said
"Wha?! Why you!!" Jiraiya said, Natsuko ducking out of his grasp standing behind Minato.
"Sis, if you had been caught in the tsukuyomi, what would you have seen?" Naruto asked after they returned to the leaf, Minato, Natsuko, and Naruto sharing a small house, near the Hokage quarters. Natsuko looked over humming
"You want to know what my 'perfect world' would be? I don't know… maybe a world where Nagatos parents were never killed which would mean he never went down the path of revenge and hatred… or maybe where Gaara didnt have it as rough as he did, where he wasnt alone. Or maybe one where Kurama was never hurt and consumed by rage and hatred as he was, which of course would mean… well ya know. What about you?" Natsuko asked
"Two words. Unlimited. Ramen." He said Natsuko making a face
"Dad… your sure hes not like…" natsuko started
"Your stuck with him. And your both stuck with me." Minato said
"What about you Dad?" Naruto asked
"I think thats pretty obvious, Naruto." Minato said, before continuing
"A world where I could see you grow up" he concluded
