Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

"Why not use my power? You still don't trust me," Kaguya said.

“I can handle this on my own now. You’re not an issue, and you’re not an issue either,” Naruto said.

"Wait until Sasuke is exhausted and his condition declines in all aspects, then use your power to catch him off guard and decide the outcome of the battle in one fell swoop."

Kaguya remained silent.

Of course she knew what it was all about; it was nothing more than that dream from more than half a year ago.

Originally, it was an experiment. If they could use a beautiful dream that Naruto couldn't refuse to trap Naruto's consciousness in a genjutsu, making him unable to extricate himself.

Naturally, this body then belonged to her.

Unfortunately, it failed.

There's something strange about Naruto's body.

Kaguya had already experienced this from the very beginning, but it was something that kept refreshing her understanding time and time again.

When Naruto was conscious, she had no chance; no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move an inch.

When Naruto is asleep, she can move a little and do some things.

However, limited to chakra, she couldn't even budge Naruto's body. It was as if Naruto's body was as heavy as a thousand pounds, and she was a weak woman who couldn't even kill a chicken.

Despite trying everything he could, he couldn't get it moving.

Even if Naruto's consciousness is successfully trapped in a genjutsu, he still won't be able to use this body.

This is truly unbelievable.

Kaguya did not admit to this. Although Naruto had suspicions, without evidence, it couldn't be 100% certain that it was her.

Before Naruto grows up, reaches the complete form of the God Tree, bears the Chakra Fruit, and gains the power to devour it, he must find a way to escape.

Otherwise, being devoured by Naruto would be her only fate.

"Don't rush, being impatient will only make things worse."

Kaguya forced herself to calm down.

Without Black Zetsu as her advisor, she has to rely on herself for everything, so she must be extremely careful.

Through Naruto's perspective, we watch Naruto and Sasuke's fierce battle unfold, both determined to destroy the other's heart, as that is the only way to win.

“Uchiha Sasuke, this guy is no good.” Kaguya ruled out Sasuke.

This guy may seem cold, but he actually values ​​relationships very much. He won't hurt Naruto unless there's an important reason that he absolutely has to do it.

Naruto usually trains alone or spends time with his family, so Kaguya has very few people she can meet.

Kakashi, Tsunade, Jiraiya—none of these people are suitable.

“Currently, there are only two suitable candidates at most: Obito Uchiha and Madara Uchiha.” Kaguya remained silent.

Obito is imprisoned, and we don't know where he is. She can't move around while Naruto is awake. This is a difficult situation.

Chapter 285 Naruto: The Advantage Lies With Me

The fierce battle lasted for more than four months.

Sasuke used every trick in the book without holding back.

Naruto used all his other abilities except for the two ultimate techniques that could kill Six Paths level powerhouses: the Expansion Truth-Seeking Ball and the All-Killing Ash Bones.

Sasuke's chakra reserves are far less than Naruto's, who is the God Tree.

However, Sasuke possesses the Rinnegan, which allows him to absorb Naruto's chakra for his own use, so his endurance is basically on par with Naruto's.

The only drawback is the power of the Rinnegan.

Sasuke's left eye is the Rinnegan with six tomoe.

The pair of Rinnegan he had taken back from Naruto were originally his own; the three-tomoe Rinnegan on the left was modeled after Naruto's previous practice.

It was implanted into the left palm.

The right Rinnegan without the tomoe mark was implanted into the palm of the right hand.

This is the eye power that Sasuke can use.

A single Rinnegan possesses immense ocular power, so powerful that even Obito in the story could only barely control it and dared not even dream of obtaining a second Rinnegan.

Sasuke has three Rinnegan, all of which he awakened himself, allowing him to perfectly unleash the power of the Rinnegan.

In comparison, Naruto is superior.

Although Naruto's Rinnegan and Tenseigan do not have tomoe, he has a nine-tomoe Rinnegan that automatically opened at the center of his forehead after becoming the God Tree.

The amount of eye power reserves and the speed of eye power recovery both suppress Sasuke in every aspect.

In terms of energy expenditure, Sasuke is definitely no match for Naruto, which is why Naruto is not in a hurry at all, does not panic, and always maintains a steady and methodical approach.

As long as he doesn't make any major mistakes and doesn't give Sasuke any openings, he will definitely be the one to win in the end.

That's exactly what happened.

More than four months later.

Naruto floated in mid-air, slightly panting.

On the other side, about a kilometer away, Sasuke was clearly much stronger, his stamina was severely depleted, his chakra was insufficient, and most importantly, his eye power was failing to sustain itself.

He was soaked in sweat and panting heavily.

"It's over, finally." Naruto wasn't careless. Often, the closer you get to victory, the more dangerous it is, as you could be turned around against all odds.

Carelessness leads to failure.

Naruto clasped his hands together and skillfully performed the hand seals.

"Sage Technique, Wood Release, Nine Dragons Cage."

Rumble!

The earth cracked open, and nine wooden dragons covered in thorns and barbs burst forth from the ground, blocking Sasuke from all directions, both his advance and retreat.

Sasuke held his breath and formed hand seals to activate his ninjutsu: "Sage Art: Fire Release, Multiple Fire Dragon Flame Bullets".

The seal was completed, but instead of Sasuke breathing fire, the chakra that erupted and rose from his body spontaneously combusted.

They transformed into several lifelike, vivid, and fiery dragons, heading towards the nine wooden dragons.

After such a long stalemate, in order to suppress the opponent, it is necessary to modify and innovate the techniques one knows.

Based on the existing techniques and templates, we remodel them.

It sounds simple, and it's not difficult to do in practice.

The change is in form, not in nature. Naruto and Sasuke have reached the pinnacle of change in nature.

The Truth-Seeking Jewel is the ultimate technique; there can be no change in properties stronger than the Truth-Seeking Jewel.

The only thing that can be altered or modified is its shape.

Don't underestimate the power of shape changes; the power of a technique largely depends on them.

A good and appropriate change in form can make the technique more effective.

boom!

Bang!

Boom boom boom!

The wooden dragon and the fire dragon collided and became entangled.

The fire dragon was smashed apart by the wood dragon.

The wooden dragon was ignited and burned by the fire dragon.

Just then, Sasuke suddenly noticed that a thin mist was gradually appearing around him, and it quickly became thick and heavy.

To conserve his eye power and reduce unnecessary waste, Sasuke had long ago closed his Rinnegan and Mangekyou Sharingan, only maintaining them at the level of three tomoe.

At this stage, the Sharingan will not cause any loss of pupil power.

The Sharingan's basic function is to see through chakra, which is why Sasuke quickly saw that there was chakra mixed in with the thick fog.

"Are they trying to block my vision so they can launch a sneak attack?" Thinking this, Sasuke became alert and on guard.

Chakra can be absorbed from Naruto as a supplement, but eye power cannot be absorbed from others; it can only be replenished slowly on its own.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Sasuke is now trying to save time and doesn't want to use the Mangekyou Sharingan or Rinnegan easily.

"That ability to blur the lines between reality and illusion can perfectly conceal chakra reactions and life reactions, and they can come from anywhere."

Thinking that the ground was not safe and it was not good to stay in this thick fog any longer, Sasuke soared into the sky and flew out of the fog in the blink of an eye.

"I've been waiting for you right here!" Naruto said with a smile.

He was more than ten times smaller than an ant, and suddenly he went from being illusory to being real, and then grew larger, closing in on Sasuke in one fell swoop.

The man struck Sasuke head-on like a cannonball, causing Sasuke to bend over and cough up blood.

It did not penetrate Sasuke's body.

The heart wasn't blown out.

Naruto's brow twitched slightly.

But at the critical moment, Sasuke conjured a layer of purple Susanoo armor in front of his heart, protecting it.

The example of Shizuku proves that one can open Susanoo with a single eye.

The example of Ban proves that one can open Susanoo even without eyes.

Sasuke is currently not using the Mangekyou Sharingan and is still at the three-tomoe stage, so he can naturally use Susanoo, but he can't use the complete Susanoo.

With a cracking sound, the Susanoo armor shattered, unable to withstand Naruto's all-out attack.

However, this brief buffer was enough for Sasuke to activate the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Swish!

In a flash, Sasuke disappeared.
