From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 258 Indra and Asura

At this moment, the woman next to them, who had been tortured beyond recognition, let out a painful groan.

Shisui, who was in a fit of rage, was instantly doused with cold water, his mind cleared immediately, and he turned to look in that direction as if he had found salvation.

Of the hundreds of members of the Uchiha clan, only a handful remained after being killed. Every single member of the clan is extremely important to him now, and he must protect them no matter what.

Without further delay, Zhi Shui rushed over and crouched down to examine the woman anxiously.

Although he wasn't a professional medical ninja, he only glanced at the medical ninja and his mood immediately became heavy: "Hang in there a little longer, I'll go find a medical ninja right away, you have to hold on!"

The chances of surviving such severe injuries are extremely slim.

Unless, of course, the legendary "Sannin" Tsunade is there, but the problem is that she has been missing for a long time, and it's too late now.

Shisui had no intention of abandoning her, as she was the only remaining member of the Uchiha clan. He bent down and embraced the woman with both arms, just as he was about to go find a medical ninja, the woman, who had been tortured to the point of barely breathing, suddenly unleashed astonishing strength, gripped his wrist tightly, and kept repeating a sentence in a muffled voice.

"Help me, please."

"Please... help me."

The woman pleaded desperately with him, forcing her bloodshot eyes open.

"Okay, tell me, how can I help you?" Zhi Shui looked at the woman nervously, somewhat at a loss.

Having received his promise, the woman seemed to summon her last bit of strength. Trembling, she raised her head and looked at her swollen belly: "My child, I can't hold on any longer. Please, take the baby out and raise him/her. Please, I beg you."

what? !

Shisui was shocked by this request, his brain even froze for half a second, and he stared blankly at the woman's high, protruding belly.

"Please."

The woman's blood-stained fingers gripped Shisui's wrist like iron clamps, and she looked at him with longing and pleading eyes.

She was dying, but the baby in her womb still had a chance to live.

At this moment, as a mother, the strength she unleashed was not for survival, but to get Shisui to save her child!

Shisui's lips turned blue, his pupils trembled slightly, and he was caught in a mental struggle.

He knew that this was the best option at the moment.

Given the woman's injuries, even if she managed to reach Konoha Hospital, her chances of survival would be extremely slim.

However, the thought of personally cutting a live infant out of a mother's womb was something that even someone as accustomed to killing as Shisui felt somewhat apprehensive about.

Please, I beg you.

The woman's pleas grew weaker, clearly indicating her waning strength, and blood continued to spurt from her mouth: "Save the child. Cut him out."

After enduring an almost agonizing internal struggle, Shisui gritted his teeth, his eyes reddening, and nodded heavily: "Fine, I'll save you, you... just bear with it!"

He pulled out his kunai, looked at the woman's swollen belly, and hesitated once again, his heart heavier than ever before.

I thought that ninjas, who were used to bloodshed and constantly walked on the edge of death, and had seen so many corpses, would never hesitate once they made up their minds.

But at this moment, Shisui's hand trembled, as if he couldn't hold the kunai. The woman looked at him tenderly, then raised her blood-stained hand and gently placed it on Shisui's hand: "It's okay, don't be afraid. I'm not in pain."

It was a woman's comforting words that gave Shisui courage.

He took a deep breath, gripped the kunai tightly, and then carefully, as if performing a delicate surgery, peeled off the eggshell without damaging the membrane.

The sharp kunai ripped open the woman's abdomen, cutting through layers of bright red muscle, and blood gushed out.

Soon, after the abdomen was cut open, Shisui saw the 'baby' inside, surrounded by amniotic fluid, curled up in a small ball, with bright red, wrinkled skin, and an umbilical cord connecting the abdomen.

The umbilical cord was severed, completely separating the baby from the mother. This 'surgery,' which had tormented Shisui's heart and caused him immense suffering, finally came to an end.

Throughout the entire process, the woman did not utter a single scream and remained silent, seemingly afraid of disturbing him.

"Look, this is your child, very healthy." Zhi Shui's eyes reddened, moved by the woman's will. He carefully held the baby and placed it in front of the woman, wanting her to see the child he had given his life for: "It's a girl, give her a name."

"Sasuke."

Love ignited in the woman's eyes, intense and fervent, like a bright light illuminating the darkness: "I hope she can have good luck and live on strongly."

Sasuke, whose name means 'helping others' or 'helping oneself', is a name that symbolizes good luck and success for the child.

But at this moment, her mother's hope was that her child would have good luck and help her to live on strongly.

"Sasuke, Sasuke, Sasuke."

Shisui softly murmured the name, looked at the mother, and said in a deep voice, "Please rest assured, I will definitely raise Sasuke to adulthood."

"Thank you, thank you."

After receiving his promise, the woman finally closed her tired eyes, satisfied.

So much happened that night.

The invasion of Obito, an S-rank rogue ninja, directly led to the tailed beasts going out of control, the death of Jinchuriki Kushina Uzumaki, and the critical injury and near death of the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya joined forces to defeat Obito and reseal the Tailed Beasts inside Naruto Uzumaki, a newborn child of the Uzumaki clan.

On the other hand, Mr. A of the Aurora Society took advantage of the situation and indirectly caused the destruction of the Uchiha clan. Uchiha Mikoto's whereabouts are unknown, while the culprit, Uchiha Itachi, was classified as an S-rank rogue ninja, becoming the only extremely dangerous rogue ninja in the history of the ninja world who was only 5 years old.

Konoha Hospital.

Newborn Sasuke and Naruto were coincidentally placed in the same intensive care unit.

One is the only remaining bloodline of the Uzumaki clan, with the Nine-Tailed Fox sealed within him, the hero who saved Konoha, and the son of the Yellow Flash, Minato Namikaze; the other is the only remaining bloodline of the renowned Uchiha clan, who awakened his Sharingan at birth and is a natural Awakener after Itachi.

It is foreseeable that in the near future, they will display amazing talent, which may shock the ninja world.

But no one noticed that there was another 'person' in the intensive care unit for the two infants.

The old man had short horns on his forehead, three eyes, a long white beard, and wore a robe like a monk's robe. He held a black staff in his hand and was none other than the legendary Sage of Six Paths.

He gazed at the two babies in the cradle, his eyes filled with kindness and gentleness, and said softly, "Indra and Asura, may this life truly be as Mr. Adam said, and may you resolve your thousand-year-old grudges in this way."
