Chapter 76: The Arrivals From Another Dimension 1

After a few debates from the council, Itachi was put in a jail cell momentarily until they've decided what to do with him.

Some Shinobi Clan were wary of Itachi, especially the Hyuga Clan. They know that if Sasuke and Itachi were to resurrect their clan, the Hyuga Clan would lose the position of the strongest clan in the village, even though they aren't really the strongest.

Sasuke tried to join in as the head of the Uchiha Clan but he was denied because a clan with only a single person in it, is not a clan. He wanted to protect his brother but without a Hokage, the council has the rights to make decisions for the village.

But, for Hikaru, this was an opportunity to expose Danzo for who he really is, by framing him of the Uchiha Massacre.

Two days later, Hikaru called a meeting for all the members of the council, including Danzo and the Elders. He has made his preparations and decided to do this on his own.

All 10 of them sat at the round table, including Hikaru, who was sitting on where the Hokage was supposed to be. Sasuke and Azumi were standing behind Hikaru.

He put his foot on top of the table, as if he was on his house. His attitude annoyed the Elders and Danzo, along with Hiashi but they couldn't do anything, since Hikaru can kill all of them with a snap of his fingers. It was even a miracle that Danzo is still alive right now. If Hikaru wanted it, Danzo would've been dead by now.

But for him, this is just a game. Hikaru cares not for politics, he just wants to humiliate Danzo before his ultimate demise.

"Now, " Hikaru started, "I want to talk about the crimes of Uchiha Itachi. As you all know, it was said that Itachi massacred his entire clan to 'prove' himself."

"That's right, so what's there to talk about?" Said Danzo.

Hikaru looks at Danzo and said, "You see, what if all of that was just a hoax made to frame Itachi? Someone who is extremely thirsty for power that he made a scheme to massacre an entire clan for his own self benefits?"

"Are you saying that someone in the council decided to massacre a clan just for his own profits, Hikaru-san? On what basis are you talking about?" Hiashi asked, narrowing his eyes at Hikaru.

Danzo already had an uneasy feeling about this meeting, but now that Hikaru said that, he can now see that he had fallen right into Hikaru's palm. If he decides to excuse himself right now, at this moment, everybody's suspicion would turn to him. He needs perfect timing to leave this meeting!

Hikaru just laid his back on the chair and said, "Why, of course, our friend Danzo here. He was the one who massacred the entire Uchiha Clan with his army of puppets, am I right, Danzo?" An evil glint passed in his eyes.

Danzo kept his cool and said calmly, "What evidence do you have that I killed off the Uchiha Clan?"

Sasuke gritted his teeth, knowing the truth far too well. He was about to make a move but Hikaru just raised his hand to stop him. He calmed himself down, acting rashly right now would not benefit them right now.

Suddenly, everyone saw Hikaru smiling widely as he said, "Hiashi, turn on your Byakugan and look at Danzo. Look at his right eye, specifically."

Hiashi didn't know why Hikaru said that to him but he did as he was told. And soon, he saw something in the right eye socket of Danzo. A Sharingan!

Hiashi turned off his byakugan and asked, "Why do you have a Sharingan in your right eye socket, Danzo-san? And I have seen that eye before, if I remembered correctly, that eye is from Uchiha Shisui!"

Everyone turned their eyes on Danzo, their suspicions has already fallen on him.

Seeing that there was no escape, Danzo then yelled, "Root!" And 10 Jounin Level Root members came out of the shadow, and just as they were about to assassinate everyone, the root members found their heads rolling on the ground. And Danzo couldn't move, he was restrained by Hikaru's mana rope.

In that short moment, he killed every root member in the room. He could've done that earlier but he wanted Danzo to humiliate himself.

Hikaru was still there, sitting on his chair with his right root on the table.

Everyone was shocked at the sudden turn of events but they all calmed down, since they also need to assess the situation first.

"Hiroaki-san, what's the meaning of this!?" Homura yelled.

"As you can see, Elder Homura, Danzo turned out to be a criminal that needs to be brought to justice. And Sasuke, cut his right arm. You'll see something really disturbing." Hikaru said to Sasuke and he obliged.

Sasuke walks towards Danzo, slowly and threateningly. He then pulled out his sword, which was the Kusanagi, given to him by the Third Hokage after he became a chunin. It was said that Hiruzen investigated the destroyed base of Orochimaru after he was killed by Hikaru, and found this sword in there.

Danzo sneered at Sasuke and said, "You're just like every other Uchiha, scums!"

After hearing that, Sasuke cut Danzo's right arm completely, along with the bandages.

After that, he brought the arm to Hikaru.

"Thank you for that." Hikaru then proceeded to unwrap the bandages off the arm, and lo and behold, 10 sharingans were implanted in his arm.

And with that, Hikaru stood up from his seat and said as if he was announcing a freak show, "Feast your eyes upon this! He had made connections with Orochimaru a long time ago just to make this bizarre arm of his!"

"I could've never thought…!" Hiashi said in shock.

"I've expected as much." Shikaru muttered.

"What kind of monster…!" Tsume said, shocked at the fact that Danzo really massacred the entire Uchiha Clan for this.

"I should've known!" Inoichi yelled in anger.

"What abomination!" Choza said in disgust.

Shibi just kept quiet but he was glaring at Danzo with hatred.

*Clap* *Clap* Clap*

Hikaru was clapping because his plan turned out great, now he can freely choose when to publicly execute Danzo. But this is not going to be any regular execution, he will be destroying Danzo's soul itself! That's a fate worse than death!

"Now that everybody knows what really happened, at least I think you've all guessed what happened, we will now decide when we will execute Danzo. And release Itachi for the crimes he didn't commit!" Hikaru said.

Shikaku then sighed and said, "Seeing that there was enough evidence against Danzo-san over here, there's no choice other than to execute him. If Orochimaru was alive, we could've kept him as prisoner to interrogate him about the whereabouts of that snake but Orochimaru is already dead, courtesy of Hikaru-san over here. The time and date of his execution will be tomorrow, and I'll have to inform the Feudal Lord about this. Troublesome, sigh."

"That's fine then, oh, and yeah, contact every Major Village to make a Five Kage Summit. A war is on the horizon, turns out, Kabuto didn't really die when I beheaded him. He can use a piece of himself to regenerate over time, at least that's what Nagato told me. Since he had mastered the forbidden jutsu, Edo Tensei, he can resurrect various powerful shinobis to do his bidding, like the Shodaime." Hikaru said.

"What!? The Edo Tensei Jutsu has been mastered by someone outside of our village?!" Shikaku reacted almost instantly.

"Just do what I told you, everybody will just take care of the rest. I've had my fun, now it's time for me to leave." Hikaru said lazily, it's no fun now that Danzo is already done for. But he has another reason for leaving, that is visiting his old friend's grave.

"W-Wait!"

Hikaru then vanished.

"Tch, troublesome. Do all of you really have to put all of this on me?" Shikaku complained, since he's basically acting as a Hokage right now.

(Half an Hour Later)

"I'm really sorry, old man. I had to do what I had to do, Danzo was getting more bold as the time went by. I know he's your friend and all but he's not who he used to be, you should've known that when you were alive. In fact, you once told me that he tried assassinating you while you went out in the Forest of Death. I hope you can understand, if you can hear me that is."

Hikaru talked to himself as he laid his back against the gravestone of Hiruzen. He had a bottle of alcohol with him, drinking while he talked to himself.

He was grieving this way, everyday since he learned of Hiruzen's death. He can resurrect him in perfect health but there's one question in his mind, "Would he like to live again in this horrible world?"

Hiruzen had seen countless things in this world while he lived. Whether they may be bad or good, the point is, he has had enough of everything. He'd just like to rest from now on, a peaceful yet endless slumber.

Now that he thought about it, this is the first time he had lost someone. Someone precious to him, an old friend.

"I think I can understand now why immortality is a curse. I hate… this feeling. I feel so empty, sad, angery, and helpless. I have danced with death countless times yet I've never felt this before."

"Is this the pain of losing someone?"

" I thought that I could just revive everyone who had died, just messing with death all the time. But I guess, this is the reality of things."

"I wonder, what are the feelings of the ones before me? Anger? Sadness? Bitterness? Guilt? Despair? Or just, everything?"

Partly, he wanted to get back at Danzo for doing all those things behind Hiruzen's back.

In the end, no matter how much you want someone to live, they will just choose death. Because death can relieve you of everything, once you have experienced all there is.

But, will Hikaru ever have the ability to die? Or, will he forever live in this timeless land?

Only time will tell.

But his destiny, his fate, is still hidden deep within the sea of mystery.

There is so much untold of his story, and this is all just the beginning.

So, are you ready?

(Somewhere outside of Konoha)

Two figures silently walked in the forest. One was short and the other was tall.

The short one had spiky blonde hair, two whisker marks on each side of his face, a headband with the Konoha's symbol in it, and bright blue eyes. He wore a black tracksuit with a fire symbol on the left breast, a symbol that resembled a bolt in the back along the sides of his pants. He kept his tracksuit unzipped and inside of his tracksuit was a white t-shirt with a bolt tied to a string around his neck.

"I told you to hide your headband, we can't let it be seen by the people in this dimension." The older one said to the younger one.

"Fiiiiine." The blonde haired kid took off his headband and put it inside his pocket.

"There, you happy now?"

Bonk!

The older one lightly chopped the blonde haired kid's head with his hand and said, "That's now how you talk to your teacher!"

"Ow!" The blonde haired kid rubbed his head due to the pain.

The older one is a handsome man with his dark hair covering the left side of his face completely. He dons a black cloak over his body, and inside, was a long sleeve shirt with purple lining over it and long black pants and leather shoes. He also has a katana on the left side of his waist, the blade was covered by a sheath.

"Hai, hai, Sasuke-sensei!" The blonde haired kid yelled.

"Shut up, Boruto. Others might hear you, and from what I've seen, it seems like this dimension's Konoha had been attacked by someone." Surprisingly, it was the older version of Sasuke.

"Curse that Urashiki, if only he hadn't done that, we could've gone back home!" Boruto muttered complaints under his breath.

That's right, in a last ditch effort, Urashiki managed to send them to another dimension at the expense of his life. Now, the two of them are left to figure out how to travel back to their home dimension, or Naruto will be left to fend off the enemies coming for him on his own.

'Just wait there Naruto, I promise I'll be bringing your son alive!' Sasuke said inside his head.
