Chapter 310 They...are doubting us

"I heard I got beaten so badly my upper body was covered in poop?"

Little Nine-Tailed Fox's words instantly silenced the few kids who were chatting.

They all knew what kind of being was sealed inside Naruto, and Sasuke was the one who knew it best.

During the genjutsu used in the graduation assessment, Naruto was able to hold off the Akatsuki members by borrowing the power of the Nine-Tails within him.

That immense chakra, the power to shatter mountains with a single strike—a power that probably terrifies everyone except Brother Yun.

Hehehe!

Little Nine-Tailed Fox shook the bottle: "Don't be so cowardly... So what if you got beaten up and shit yourself? You've already been beaten, can't you even ask?"

At this moment, the Nine-Tails, which had only woken up that afternoon, exploded within Naruto's sealed area.

"That bastard!"

"How dare it say...say such a thing!"

"I'm going to tear it to shreds! Tear it to shreds!"

Naruto looked at the roaring Nine-Tails and scratched his head awkwardly: "Fox Boss... how about we switch people?"

The Nine-Tails stopped roaring and glanced at Naruto: "You should talk to your boyfriend first, otherwise if I go out, that bastard will only become more unscrupulous."

"Huh?"

Naruto said thoughtfully, "So, you're afraid of Hinata, Fox Boss? Don't worry, I already talked to her about it when you passed out this afternoon."

"boom!!"

A crimson claw slammed down in front of Naruto: "Who's afraid of a brat? Naruto, do you want to die?"

Naruto immediately shook his head.

After so many years of getting along, Naruto knows very well that his boss is quite arrogant.

If I keep talking, I might become the one who gets vented on.

……

In reality.

Shikamaru looked at the little Nine-Tails and said, "Lord Nine-Tails, your half-body is actually the same as you..."

Little Nine-Tailed Fox shook her head, slightly tipsy: "How could that be? How could that guy who got beaten to a pulp be like me?"

"Back then, when Boss Yun and I teamed up to fight against Uzumaki Sora! You bunch of brats didn't see it, but our opponent's Wood Dummy Technique was almost as tall as the moon..."

"Hmph! In the end, wasn't it me who smashed him to pieces with one swipe of my claw? If Boss Yun hadn't had a trump card he hadn't used yet, that Whirlpool Kong would have been killed by me!"

"Coo coo coo!"

"belch!"

After downing a bottle of wine, Little Nine-Tailed Fox patted its belly after letting out a burp: "I'm so ashamed that my other half is so weak..."

Just then...

Having just switched consciousness, Naruto, whose six whiskers had grown longer, grabbed at the staggering Nine-Tails with one hand.

The speed was so fast that no one had time to react.

Feigning a slight buzz, Little Nine-Tailed Fox was immediately grabbed by the neck.

"Gah!"

Like lifting a duck, Little Nine-Tailed Fox was lifted up and slammed onto the table.

Then fists rained down like raindrops.

"Bang bang bang..."

"You foul mouth, you bastard!"

"Snapped!"

"Who got beaten to a pulp? You?"

"Clap clap clap!"

"How does it feel, Daihito? If I don't slap you to death today, you won't know who the real one is!"

……

After a series of attacks, the Nine-Tailed Fox was completely stunned.

"boom!"

A massive burst of chakra erupted, and the alcohol was expelled from the body in an instant.

The Nine-Tails broke free from the grip of fate, leaped into the air, and began frantically clawing at Naruto's face.

In an instant, the Nine-Tails' chakra filled the private room, and even the grill was shaken and flew up.

"Smack."

A piece of green vegetable was slapped directly onto Shikamaru's face, and a piece of grilled meat flew into the air and was caught by Choji with his mouth.

Those flying towards Uchiha Kumo were all pushed back by a repulsive force.

The next moment, the six-tomoe Sharingan appeared in Yun's eye sockets.

"Buzz!"

Under the powerful eye force, the little nine-tailed fox's pupils changed in an instant, and its consciousness sank into the illusion.

The next moment, Yun appeared in front of Naruto: "Hinata's eyes are not much weaker than the Rinnegan. It's not shameful to be knocked unconscious by such power."

"Let's go back."

After a casual remark, he tapped Naruto's forehead with two fingers.

The next moment, the Nine-Tails' consciousness retreated directly back to the sealed land.

The commotion subsided, and Shikamaru removed the vegetable leaves from his face: "Two halves of the Nine-Tails, subdued so easily. Brother Yun, just how powerful have you become?"

Yun smiled and sat down again: "I don't know either. But it seems that the evolution of these eyes and the body hasn't reached its end yet."

Izumi sighed, "So, as the twin sister, I'm under a lot of pressure."

Then Izumi looked at Shikamaru and said, "You're quite clever, why don't you help me think of a way to become as strong as my brother?"

Shikamaru waved his hands repeatedly: "This has nothing to do with brains. Brother Yun's special case is simply impossible to replicate."

For a moment, the group resumed their conversation. Only Little Nine-Tailed Fox, trapped in the illusion, could only sit motionless on the table like a mascot.

Sasuke's gaze turned slightly serious.

Haven't we reached the finish line yet?

Such powerful pupil power is worlds apart from the kaleidoscope, yet it still hasn't reached its end.

According to records, Indra inherited the Sage's Eyes from the Sage of Six Paths. Is it possible for me to reach that level?

……

"I knew I heard Naruto's voice, and sure enough, he's here."

The sudden sound interrupted Sasuke's thoughts. The curtain of the private room was lifted, and Karin Uzumaki poked her head in.

Kiba Inuzuka followed closely behind, his gaze also fixed on Naruto: "You guys are here to celebrate your successful graduation too? I thought I'd be a year ahead of you, Naruto, but it seems we're still on the same starting line!"

The last one to enter was Kurenai Yuhi, who bowed slightly to Yun with some embarrassment: "Excuse me, since we are classmates, the children would like to say hello."

Yun smiled and shook her head slightly: "It's nothing. If you don't mind, let's go together. These kids are all in the same class, and they just passed their graduation exams, so they should have a lot to talk about."

Izumi, who was standing nearby, also said, "Sister Kurenai, come along too! And if Uncle Asuma comes later, he can come along as well."

Kurenai nodded and sat down next to Izumi: "You call me 'older sister' and 'Uncle Asuma,' even though he's told you so many times. Actually... Asuma isn't that old..."

Izumi pouted dismissively, "His whole face is covered in a beard, he looks like an old man..."

With the reconnaissance team joining in, the private room became even more lively.

With Kurenai Yuhi joining, Izumi has finally found a friend with whom he can share secrets.

Opposite them, Uchiha Yun frowned slightly, deep in thought.

Its source was the conversation of the little devils around him.

"Sasuke, why didn't you answer me when I called you last night? You disappeared in a flash, even Kiba's Akamaru couldn't find you."

Karin's question left the three members of Class 7 stunned.

last night?

Yesterday afternoon until this morning was Team 7's assessment time, and Sasuke was under Brother Yun's genjutsu at that time.

At this moment, Karin says she saw Sasuke. How is that possible?

"Um... Karin, are you sure you didn't see wrong? Our Class 7 stayed together the whole night, we didn't leave each other."

"How could I be mistaken? It's Sasuke!"

Karin retorted, then scratched her head and said, "Naruto, if that's what you're saying, although the chakra feels exactly the same to me, there are indeed subtle differences now that I think about it."

Sasuke frowned slightly: "So... someone in the village used the Transformation Jutsu to impersonate me last night? I think only Naruto would do something like that, right?"

Naruto, who was standing nearby, immediately retorted, "I watched over you all night last night, so that's not fair!"

Hinata raised her hand and whispered in support, "Naruto and I were together all night last night, I can vouch for that."

???

These words made Karin instantly forget about Sasuke; after all, nothing is more important than gossip.

Therefore, the extra Sasuke was explained using the transformation technique.

The rest of the conversation revolved entirely around Naruto and Hinata.

"When we were little, Aunt Kushina was worried you wouldn't be able to find a wife, so she was thinking of arranging a marriage for us when we were children. Who knew you'd be so precocious!"

"Don't look at me like that, Hinata. Nobody's going to steal Naruto from you. Not just me, if Sasuke were a girl, he and Naruto would probably be betrothed as children."

Awkward Naruto glanced at Sasuke, wanting to change the subject but unsure what to say.

Sasuke simply said, "If I were to become a girl, it would still be Naruto, so Naruko would be perfect."

Naruto looked around, then asked Karin, "Shouldn't there be three people in a class? Why is it just you and Kiba in your class?"

Karin paused for a moment, then frowned and thought back.

There was another teammate... what was his name again?

I thought for a long time but couldn't remember, until a light, airy voice appeared.

"My name is Aburame Shino..."

"I remember now, it's Shino!"

"Shino, what are you doing here? How long have you been here?"

"I didn't even see you come in!"

"As expected of the top performer in stealth training, impressive!"

……

As night fell, the celebrations for the graduation assessments came to an end.

Just as he returned home, an ANBU member appeared in front of Uchiha Yun.

"Lord Yun, the Hokage has something to discuss with you."

Yun waved his hand: "I'll be there in a bit. The Hokage Building, right? Aren't they resting this late? The Hokage Building is definitely not a place for humans to sit."

He casually made a comment, and Izumi turned around and laughed, "It will be quite interesting if you say that when you become the Fifth Boss."

Yun reached out and tapped Quan's forehead: "Go back quickly and tell your mother that I have something to do and need to go out for a while."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun's figure disappeared through the doorway.

……

Hokage Building.

"During Team 7's graduation exam at Training Ground 7, two Sasukes appeared in Konoha."

Minato handed a document to Yun: "After the Anbu discovered it, I had Kushina and Rin Uzumaki make some probing contact, and their senses proved that it was neither a transformation jutsu nor a face-erasing jutsu."

"Kabuto gave an even more surprising answer: the other Sasuke who suddenly appeared also possessed Indra's chakra."

After speaking, Yun did not answer immediately, but opened the document in her hand and began to read it carefully.

The other Sasuke appeared at night, directly in the shopping district.

Furthermore, based on comparisons with the Anbu, his height and build are somewhat smaller than the real Sasuke.

Throughout the night, Sasuke did not go to the Uchiha clan's territory, but instead searched for something on the edge of the village.

Later, after Kushina and Rin got to know that the other party was probably Sasuke who was over eight years old, they took him back and settled him in for the night.

Nothing happened. In fact, because Naruto didn't go back and Minato was working overtime, the other party didn't even know that the Fourth Hokage was still alive.

After reviewing the records in the document, Yun put it back on her desk.

"This situation... should be considered an accident."

Accident?

Minato paused, then asked, "I remember in the graduation exam report, your genjutsu was set to make Sasuke look eight or nine years old. Plus, he disappeared just as dawn broke the next day. This situation can't be explained by an accident."

Yun scratched his head, and then the six-tomoe Sharingan appeared in his eye sockets.

"I still haven't fully grasped the power of those eyes. Itachi's Tsukuyomi and Shisui's Kotoamatsukami, combined with my own eye power, could initially be explained as genjutsu..."

"But later... the people and events in this illusion began to develop on their own, and I couldn't control them."

"All we can do is adjust the flow of time on both sides."

???

Minato was stunned by what he heard.

For a moment, the Hokage's office fell silent.

After a long silence, Minato hesitated before asking, "You mean...two worlds?"

Two worlds? Such a notion is simply unheard of.

In particular, another world, which was originally a world made of illusion, has become real at this time.

How is that possible?

Even the Yin-Yang Release technique of the Sage of Six Paths could not so easily construct another real world.

and many more!

It's not that easy, it's simply impossible!

It creates form from nothingness and gives life to it.

The power of Yin-Yang Release can indeed create new life, but that's a world! Not just one person!

"I don't know yet, but it shouldn't be a world I created. Even these eyes don't have that kind of power."

Yun also fell into thought as she spoke.

The limited Tsukuyomi storyline was only a small part in the original work I remembered, and there was no continuity at all.

The conclusion that there are two worlds is probably not valid, because ultimately, the Otsutsuki clan, the aliens, are the origin of the entire ninja world.

If the Rinnegan with only six tomoe could create a world, then why did Kaguya Otsutsuki go through all the trouble of planting trees?

and many more!

There's a scene in my memory where Obito is standing on the bridge and saying something.

The world that cannot be controlled by the limited Tsukuyomi, the reflection that appears on the river.

Is that world... a shadow of this world?

A world of reflections where there is no self-existence?

Because of Sasuke's presence, even if consciousness enters, the other Sasuke is replaced in the real world.

Since there is no village of my own on the other side, my entry will not replace anyone.

Without its own existence, there would be no Vortex Void.

Because my initial setting was the world of the original work, that world didn't change and developed according to the original work.

Furthermore, Sasuke, who was replaced, also possessed Indra's chakra. So, is Black Zetsu over there also the will of Kaguya Otsutsuki?

If the influence of that world is negligible, Black Zetsu will still appear in the same place as before. So, does that mean there is a medium for sacrifice?

"If it really is two different worlds, won't that cause problems?"

Minato was somewhat worried.

He already had enough of a headache dealing with Uzumaki Sora and Akatsuki, and he didn't want any more enemies to appear during his tenure.

Yun shook her head slightly: "Probably not. Sasuke has already achieved his goal with the Mangekyou Sharingan. He won't need the experience from that world anymore."

Minato breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this: "That's for the best. Over the years, any change has become a major problem, and we've become quite sensitive about it."

"Akatsuki's actions... are getting increasingly aggressive."

As he spoke, Minato handed over a scroll containing information about the Akatsuki's recent activities.

Besides the four who had been appearing for a long time, the Six Paths of Pain also began to move around.

The Akatsuki's operations were primarily killings, targeting ninjas from the Daimyo's residence and ninja villages.

On the other hand, Obito and Orochimaru were constantly targeting the tailed beasts.

The most recent instance was when Utakata, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki who defected from Kirigakure, narrowly escaped while critically injured, causing heavy losses to the Kirigakure that came to his aid.

"That means... now only the One-Tailed Beast from Sunagakure, the Two-Tailed and Eight-Tailed Beasts from Kumogakure, the Three-Tailed Beast that hasn't reunited yet, the Six-Tailed Beast that escaped from Kirigakure, and the Nine-Tailed Beast from Konoha that hasn't been captured yet..."

Yun put the scroll back: "From now on, all the Tailed Beasts that were roaming outside have been captured. So if the other side wants to continue, only our ninja village is left."

Minato nodded: "The five great ninja villages have already established the fastest communication methods. We also have a space-time ninjutsu that allows us to teleport, so there's not much to worry about."

"On the other hand, Akatsuki, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire has made another request..."

At this point, Minato looked at Kumo and said, "They require you to go to the Daimyo's residence to serve as one of the Twelve Guardian Shinobi, as the ultimate force to protect the Daimyo."

???

Yun paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "I don't like dealing with these politicians. Who knows, if I get angry, I might slaughter them before Xiao's Uzumaki Sora kills them."

"call……"

After letting out a breath, Minato smiled wryly: "That's what I told the Daimyo too. Fortunately, the Uchiha's reputation in the past had some effect, and the Daimyo gave up on the idea."

"However... this is not a solution. The problem is not only faced by Konoha, but also by the other ninja villages."

"Furthermore, Konoha has suffered the least losses in recent years, so the issue of the Uzumaki clan's surname has been brought up again."

"They...are suspicious of us."
