Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

"The Sage of Six Paths from that world attacked you?"

"Humph!"

Madara Uchiha slammed his fist into the metal wall, creating a deep dent.

His face was so gloomy it could drip water.

"I'm an idiot... or rather, I am that version of myself from that world."

Although he was cursing, Madara's clenched fist was trembling slightly.

Despite his pride, he felt a profound sense of powerlessness when facing those two Seeking Truth Jade.

That's a difference in dimensions!

Ordinary chakra, or even a complete Susanoo, is like a fragile toy in the face of Yin-Yang Release at the Six Paths level!

"Brother Yue, your decision is correct."

Hashirama Senju wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh of relief.

Uchiha Tsuki sat in the chair, letting Hikaru wipe the blood from the corner of his eyes with a wet towel.

"Are Super Shadow-level beings still mere ants before Six Paths-level beings?"

The moon coldly reviewed the brief exchange that had just taken place in her heart.

He originally thought that with the chakra provided by the [Ming Seal - Parallel Network], plus his many methods, even if he couldn't defeat a Six Paths level opponent, he could still hold his own for a while.

But he was wrong.

When that overwhelming chakra descended, he truly felt what it meant to be "powerful"—more effective than any other method.

"Not enough... This level of strength is far from sufficient."

Yue slowly stood up and scanned the entire laboratory.

His gaze swept from Orochimaru, Sasori, Madara, and Hashirama before finally settling on the Sage of Six Paths in mid-air.

"Gentlemen."

The sound of the moon broke the silence.

"As you just saw, Madara in that world was merely a vessel for the resurrection of the Otsutsuki. What we will face in the future is an Otsutsuki god who is stronger and purer than him!"

"The conventional ninjutsu system, even when mastered to the level of Hashirama and Madara, has reached a dead end!"

Yue strode to the central holographic projection table and slammed her hands on the table.

"The plan must be accelerated at all costs!"

"Orochimaru, Sasori! Regarding the fusion of Hashirama's cells and the [Fourth Calamity] prototype, I require you to complete mass production within one year!"

"And..." Yue raised her head:

"The deduction of the [Stellar-level Immortal Mode] should be initiated immediately!"

"Stellar-level... Sage Mode?" Hashirama and the Sage of Six Paths were both stunned.

"That's right!"

Uchiha Yue brought up a vast holographic star map of the solar system, pointing his finger directly at the star that radiated endless light and heat.

"The earth's natural energy is ultimately limited. If we want to cross the sixth level barrier, we must abandon our dependence on this planet's ley lines!"

Yue explained to everyone the difference in magnitude between the Sun and the Earth.

"Then how can we utilize the sun's energy?" Hashirama asked.

"You'd have to ask him, wouldn't you say, the Sage of Six Paths?"

"Ask...this old man?"

Feathered Robe's mechanical body stiffened slightly.

His purple Rinnegan swept across the holographic star map, looking at the burning sun, and then following the gravitational orbit, he saw the moon, which was quietly rotating around the ninja world planet.

Suddenly, it was as if a bolt of lightning had cleaved open the memories that the Six Immortals had sealed away for a thousand years!

"Borrowing the sun's energy...without relying on the earth's veins..."

"You...you don't mean to use the Tenseigan left on the moon by the Hamura lineage?!"

"As expected of the progenitor of the ninja world, he understands things immediately."

Uchiha Yue snapped his fingers, and the holographic star map zoomed in instantly, freezing on the desolate moon.

"Back then, in order to monitor the Gedo Mazo, Hamura Otsutsuki led his clan to migrate to the moon. The ultimate eye technique they developed, the Tenseigan, not only has the ability to manipulate gravity, but its deep power mechanism is essentially a 'super antenna' that can perfectly receive, transform, and refract cosmic energy!"

Yue turned her head, her eyes burning with fervor like a raging fire:

"We don't rely on bloodlines or tailed beasts! As long as we open a passage to the moon, deconstruct the core protocol of the Tenseigan, and insert our Sage Mode 'antennae' directly into the sun's nuclear fusion reactor!"

"Stealing the power of stars! This is our way to fight the Otsutsuki clan."

Chapter 201 Tsunade is Jealous of Tsunade

The extremely brain-teasing meeting has finally come to an end.

Yue waved her hand, indicating that everyone could go to the living area to rest for a while.

Kato Dan, who had just been fitted with a mechanical body, was also allowed to leave the hibernation pod and arrive at a high-end casual restaurant in the Loulan underground city.

However, at this moment, the atmosphere at a round table in the corner of the restaurant was very strange.

Kato Dan, dressed in simple casual clothes, sat stiffly in the chair.

Even though it was just a mechanical shell, cold sweat was constantly seeping from his forehead.

Because... he was right in the center of a "battlefield"!

To the left of the broken wall sits the "young Tsunade" who was rescued from that broken world.

She clung tightly to her broken arm, staring defiantly at the person opposite her.

On the opposite side of the broken line, the "mature Tsunade" of the main timeline was sitting there silently, holding a cup of sake.

She didn't speak, nor did she make any affectionate gestures to assert her dominance like she had in her younger days.

She simply stared silently and intently at Kato Dan's face.

Tsunade, from the main timeline, knew very well that the living man before her belonged to her younger self in terms of soul and causality.

Her own heart had already stopped breathing in her arms on a rainy night more than a decade ago.

Knowing she was in the wrong, and because of her pride, she lacked the confidence to fight for it.

She just wanted to take this miracle that transcends time and space and see that face that had appeared in her dreams countless times a few more times.

But this affectionate gaze enraged the young Tsunade.

"Hey! Haven't you stared enough?"

The young Tsunade finally lost her temper and leaned forward, blocking the view of the main timeline's Tsunade:

"I know you are my future self, but you are definitely my lover! Can you please stop staring at him like that?"

For the young Tsunade, the woman in front of her was "herself," which meant that the other woman had the same mindset as her, and... a more impressive figure than her!

This gave her an unprecedented sense of crisis.

Tsunade's hand trembled slightly in the main timeline, her eyelids lowered, and she did not utter a word of rebuttal, but silently drank the strong liquor in her glass in one gulp.

"Tsunade, don't do this..." Kato Dan was caught between the two lovers, feeling awkward and at a loss.

He tried to comfort the young Tsunade, but also felt a pang of sympathy for his savior.

"Hehehe... Little girl, you've misplaced your hostility."

Just then, a hoarse voice came from the bar next to us.

Orochimaru, holding a glass of red wine, walked over with elegant steps, his golden vertical pupils filled with a hint of emotion as he looked at the young Tsunade.

"She won't fight you for it; she's just looking at a dream that she's lost for over a decade."

Orochimaru put away his usual sharp tongue and said in a low voice, "In her timeline... the man beside you died in front of her. Even though she used all her medical ninjutsu, she couldn't save his life."

"Because of Dan's death, she developed severe hemophobia. She would tremble at the sight of blood and eventually left Konoha in despair, wandering the ninja world like a walking corpse, numbing herself with alcohol and gambling..."

Orochimaru licked his lips: "The only thing she looks at you with now is deep envy. She envies you for having another chance."

As Orochimaru finished speaking, the young Tsunade stared blankly at the woman opposite her.

She saw the marks of time on that more mature face than her own, and she saw the suffocating sadness in that person.

in case……

If it weren't for Uchiha Yue's rescue across time, would she have also experienced the hopeless future Orochimaru spoke of?

The young Tsunade's grip on her severed arm loosened slightly.

She lowered her head, unable to utter another word to drive him away.

As the protagonist who triggered this chaotic scene, Kato Dan was somewhat at a loss.

Being too stubborn and getting stuck in both directions will only lead to trouble; leaning to either side will only make things worse.

"Hahahahahaha!"

Just when the atmosphere was at its most awkward, a burst of jarring laughter suddenly erupted from the next table.

"Oh my! This is so interesting! It's really so interesting!"

Hashirama Senju was holding a skewer of grilled dumplings, laughing so hard he almost cried.

"Look at Xiao Gang! He's jealous of himself! The two of them are glaring at each other over a man. This is such youthful energy! It makes this old man feel ten years younger, hahaha!"

Sitting opposite Hashirama, Madara Uchiha's hand, holding a teacup, had bulging veins on the back. He coldly snorted:

"Hmph, that's utterly stupid."

Madara's pupils revealed disdain: "Being preoccupied with such trivial romantic feelings, emotions will only become a ninja's weakness, making them weak and helpless! The Senju clan has become so fragile because they are addicted to these superfluous emotions."

Upon hearing Madara's outrageous remarks, Hashirama stopped laughing.

He turned his head and looked Uchiha Madara up and down, a look of pity suddenly appearing in his eyes:
