Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

Spaces that are different from one's own space belong to the category of alternate spaces.

From tiny storage scrolls with an interior space of only about one square meter, to massive scrolls that resemble an infinite universe.

Finding a person in such a vast area is infinitely more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.

To be honest, Naruto didn't have much hope either. After all, Madara didn't have the Ten-Tails and wasn't injured, so his target wasn't as big as Obito's.

They searched for Obito for more than half a year, and finally, by sheer luck, they found him.

Searching for the spots, heaven knows how long it will take.

Naruto passed through the portal opened by Sasuke and returned to the ninja world. Seeing that Sasuke hadn't followed and the portal had closed, Naruto shook his head and said nothing.

Sasuke is unattached and all alone, preferring to wander rather than settle down in one place.

Hoping that Sasuke will win over Sakura and give her a good ending is not going to work.

What should we do? We can't just let Sakura stay like this forever, can we?

Thinking of this, Naruto looked up at the sky.

Dark clouds loomed overhead, obscuring the starry sky. With a casual flick of his wrist, gravity intervened, and the thick clouds dispersed, shifting to the side to reveal a bright crescent moon.

I could sense Hinata, Sakura, and Ino's chakra and life force reactions; they were right there, along with Hidan's life force reaction.

Since several months ago, when he saw Sakura's memories and learned of her feelings with her help, Naruto has been intentionally or unintentionally avoiding her.

Even when they meet, there are always other people present; they never meet alone.

Honestly, if I had known this before getting engaged to Hinata, would I still have gotten engaged to her?

Naruto remained silent.

Hinata is consistent inside and out, gentle, obedient, and compliant, always doing what she wants.

What about Sakura? She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart; her gentleness is hidden beneath her rudeness. Before graduating from the Ninja Academy, I received a lot of care from Sakura.

Both girls are wonderful; to have even one of them fall for you and offer yourself in marriage is already incredibly lucky. Now, it seems both of them...

"Don't let your mind wander." Naruto stopped his thoughts.

It's all that dream's fault; it makes him unable to stop having all sorts of wild thoughts.

"Kaguya, don't try to play tricks on me anymore. If you don't want to be devoured by me someday, don't do anything foolish," Naruto said.

"Before you speak, please look at my current state. Do I look like I could do anything?" Kaguya pretended not to know what Naruto was talking about, feigning innocence and helplessness.

"Whether it's you or not, I'm putting this out there: think twice before you act, for the sake of your own future," Naruto said.

Kaguya sighed softly, looking weary and unwilling to speak.

Seeing this, Naruto said no more and appeared in his home in Konoha Village in a flash.

As always, Dad Minato was not home; he was busy working in the Anbu.

There was only her mother, Kushina, and Hanabi at home.

Naruto's sudden appearance startled the two of them.

Based on her senses, Kushina confirmed that it was Naruto's chakra, and learned from Naruto that it was his true form. She quickly put down the scarf she was halfway through making, stood up from the sofa, and moved closer.

He looked around at Naruto, patting him here and pinching him there.

"You're finally back! You!" The heart that had been pounding in my chest finally relaxed, but then my anger surged.

Considering Hanabi's presence, Kushina took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to become violent, and said calmly, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? Mom will make it for you."

"Uh, then I'll have a bowl of tomato and egg noodles," Naruto said with a dry laugh.

Kushina glared at Naruto and went into the kitchen.

"Brother-in-law, you're back! Are you alright? Are you hurt?" Hanabi stopped her handstand, loosened her hair from its bun, and let her waist-length hair fall naturally.

Hinata was five years old, and now, at eleven, Hanabi, who will soon turn twelve, is growing more and more graceful.

She bears a resemblance to Hinata, with a finely sculpted face and pure white eyes that sparkle with a mischievousness that Hinata lacks.

"Hey, who do you think I am? Of course everything's fine, everything has to be fine, okay?" Naruto patted Hanabi's head as usual and smiled.

"Now I possess an immortal body, it's difficult for me to die even if I want to, let alone others."

"Immortal body..." Hanabi didn't dodge Naruto's hand that was pressing on her head; instead, she subtly moved closer to him.

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old? How could someone be immortal? Everyone dies; that's an immutable law."

"Unless you're not human, but a monster from a novel or storybook."

“Actually, it’s pretty much the same.” Naruto chuckled: “Right now, I’m a monster, and a monster that could destroy the world if I’m not careful.”

Just thinking her brother-in-law was bragging, lying without thinking, and being unrealistic, Huahu pouted and skipped over this unfounded topic. She pointed to her eyes and said with a grin.

"Brother-in-law, look, this is my Byakugan that has already undergone two transformations. If it does one more time, I can upgrade it to the Tenseigan just like my sister!"

Chapter 288 Kaguya: I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense.

Shadow clones and Wood Release clones, after disappearing, will return their memories to the original body intact.

Through this method, Naruto learned what had happened in the ninja world, Konoha, and his home during the months he and Sasuke were locked in battle.

The overall landscape of the ninja world has undergone significant changes.

Previously, Obito controlled a large number of White Zetsu and secretly replaced ninjas from various villages, as well as retainers and servants from various major countries.

After being discovered by Naruto, he decisively chose to self-destruct, causing great harm and panic to all parties involved.

Fortunately, it was discovered early, and although the loss was significant, it did not cause serious damage.

If things continue to develop like this, the losses will be immeasurable when it finally erupts.

Forced by the threats from Obito and White Zetsu, and especially by Madara Uchiha, whose fearsome reputation was ever-present, the five great nations, led by Obito and followed by numerous smaller nations, signed an alliance treaty.

Before eliminating Obito, White Zetsu, and Madara Uchiha, internal strife must not be allowed. All forces must be united and concentrated to deal with Madara Uchiha.

Konoha, who previously went to another dimension with Naruto to search for and eliminate Obito's ninjas.

Except for a very few people who are absolutely trusted, most people's memories have been erased.

All related memories were deleted in order to hide Naruto's strength and the fact that Obito was crippled and captured.

"Should I play the roles of Obito and Madara to indirectly maintain peace in the ninja world?"

In the bathtub, Naruto lay comfortably, soaking in the warm water, his mind unconsciously thinking about the memories he received from the Shadow Clone and Wood Release clones.

He felt it was his duty to do this.

It's nothing more than periodically appearing in various parts of the ninja world as Obito or Madara, causing trouble and making an appearance.

This forced various countries and ninja villages to maintain their alliance due to pressure from a powerful enemy.

As it turns out, when multiple forces that are irreconcilable encounter a common enemy, and that enemy that no one can contend with, they will eventually overcome it.

Naturally, without being taught, they will join forces to fight the enemy.

Theoretically speaking, this method is feasible and not difficult to implement.

The water was getting cold when Naruto came to his senses, got up, refined the Five-Tails' chakra, turned it into steam, and evaporated the water droplets on his body.

Wearing a yukata, she left the bathroom, saying, "Hinata, I'm done washing. You should go wash up too."

Hinata, who was chatting casually with Hanabi, immediately grabbed her pajamas and ran into the bathroom, leaving Hanabi standing there, completely bewildered.

"What's wrong?" Naruto asked curiously.

"Ah, no, it's nothing." Hanabi shook her head.

It must be my imagination. I've always had the best relationship with my older sister since I was little. This inexplicable sense of distance is completely inexplicable.

It must be an illusion.

late at night.

Kaguya mobilized the one-third of her available chakra and quietly activated Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Because the chakra is restricted by Naruto and cannot leave his body, this move can only be used within Naruto's body; therefore, it is only effective against Naruto.

Naruto's physical fatigue had reached a very high level.

Many factors led to Kaguya's successful attempt this time.

Realizing Naruto was asleep, Hinata blinked, smiled slightly, and groped in the dark to pull the blanket over herself and Naruto: "Goodnight."

Kaguya successfully put Naruto to sleep and trapped him in a genjutsu, but despite repeated attempts, she still couldn't control Naruto's body.

"What exactly happened? What's wrong? He clearly has no control over his body, so why?" Kaguya was completely baffled. "I can't control it..."

Unable to control my body and unable to release my chakra, how am I supposed to complete the plan?

Unable to think of a solution no matter what she did, Kaguya sighed inwardly, hoping that some turning point might appear.

Silent all night.

The next day.

Naruto woke up from his sleep, stared at the familiar ceiling, and his brows gradually furrowed.

"I told you not to do anything to me again. It seems you don't take my words to heart. Do you want to die?"

Waited for a while.

"Are you talking to me?" Kaguya asked hesitantly.

"Besides you, who else could it be?" Naruto said expressionlessly. "Who else could make me fall asleep without me even realizing it, and have the same dream as last time?"

"Isn't this because you're too tired?" Kaguya said speechlessly, "I know you're prejudiced against me, but don't throw all sorts of accusations at me."

"Black Zetsu, the Gedo Mazo, chakra, freedom—everything that should have belonged to me has been taken away by you. What more do you want?"

"If you really can't tolerate me, just say so. No matter what I say or do, it's wrong, right? Even if I say nothing or do nothing, it's still wrong."

Naruto didn't respond. He had no evidence that Kaguya was responsible, and malicious perception was ineffective against Kaguya inside his body.

But as he said, who else but Kaguya could do this?

I'm so tired! With Hinata in my arms, who has the mind to sleep?

"The day I blossom and bear fruit, and possess sufficient power, will be the day you are devoured and disappear," Naruto said.
