Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

The centipede's body, which was tens of meters long and made of hard metal, was torn apart by the absolute force of gravity, like a fragile paper toy, with a huge hole ten meters in diameter being carved out of thin air in the middle.

Naruto and Minato were stunned by what they saw, but their combat skills quickly brought them back to their senses. The most important thing now was to defeat Centipede; everything else could wait.

"Well done!" Naruto shouted excitedly.

However, Minato's expression remained grave: "It's useless. As long as the dragon vein connection remains intact, he can..."

As expected, the centipede let out a painful roar, but the wound shone with a bright purple light, and tens of thousands of chakra lines intertwined wildly once again, and the huge hole was restored to its original state in just one second.

"Hahahaha! I told you! I am immortal! As long as the dragon vein exists, the probability of you killing me is zero!!"

The centipede laughed arrogantly, its massive body crushing down on the moon like Mount Tai, attempting to use its size advantage to smash him into a pulp.

"Minato, Naruto, I know you two have another trick up your sleeve. I need your cooperation!"

Of course, Yue could directly and without restraint expend her pupil power to release a large-scale gravitational sphere, once and for all, completely shattering the centipede.

However, in this spacetime that is being closely watched by the "world's corrective force," it would be extremely foolish to overdraw one's right eye's power to fight against a minor character destined to be eliminated.

Chapter 9 Tai Chi Rasengan

"Although I'd love to arrest you right now, it seems I have no choice but to cooperate for now!"

Minato Namikaze, as expected of the future Hokage, made the most calm judgment in an instant.

He could sense that Uchiha Tsuki, in front of him, seemed to have somehow discovered the monster's weakness.

"Alright! Uncle! Watch us!"

Although Naruto was full of questions, the Nine-Tails' chakra within him was surging wildly with his heightened emotions.

"The probability is zero?"

As the enormous centipede body crashed down, blotting out the sky, Uchiha Yue's left eye emitted a deep red light.

"In this world, there is no absolute zero. There will always be a screw in your shell, and the probability of it falling out is relatively high..."

Yue slowly raised her left hand, her slender fingers gently tapping in the air.

"despair."

A crisp snap of the fingers, amidst the chaos of the battlefield, sounded like the knocking of death.

The kaleidoscope pattern in the left eye spun wildly like a roulette wheel.

"Eight meanings combined!"

In that instant, the invisible threads of causality were forcibly tugged.

"Crack... crackle crackle!!!"

The once imposing centipede suddenly froze in mid-air.

A piercing, cracking sound, like metal gears jamming and breaking apart, emanated from the deepest part of its body.

"Wha...what's going on?! My circuit...why is it overloaded?! This is impossible!" Centipede let out a terrified howl.

Immediately afterward, to the astonishment of Minato and Naruto, the dragon vein alloy armor that the centipede was said to be able to ignore all ninjutsu actually broke apart due to a chain reaction caused by a tiny loose screw inside. At that moment, a fragment was precisely ejected and fell off, directly revealing the energy core inside that was pulsating with purple light and looked like a heart!

This is the terrifying aspect of the "Eightfold Principle"—it can adjust the probability of an event occurring. As long as it's not an impossible event, theoretically it can turn a "probability of 0" into a "certainty of occurrence," and it can also adjust a "certainty of occurrence" to a "probability of 0."

The only cost is the amount of eye power consumed.

Of course, this also depends on the difficulty of the event and the probability of change.

For example, the eye power required to increase the probability of Uchiha Yue becoming a Six Paths level powerhouse by 0.1% is far more than the eye power required to increase the probability of "making the silly elite Jonin Naruto take a step forward" to 100%, and even far exceeds the current upper limit of Yue's Mangekyou Sharingan eye power.

"Now! Naruto, make your move!" Minato shouted.

"Ooooooooo!!!"

Naruto extended his left hand, and a Rasengan suddenly appeared.

This can't end here, even if the enemy's armor is damaged.

Minato looked at Naruto and smiled slightly.

Although he had some suspicions, Minato was still quite pleased with the kid's behavior during this period.

He quickly moved forward, positioned to Naruto's left, and then extended his right hand, placing it below Naruto's left hand.

"When chakras of similar nature come close together, they resonate. When their chakras merge, the strongest Rasengan is created, which is called the Tai Chi Rasengan!"

A giant Rasengan, radiating dazzling light and surrounded by ripples resembling a Tai Chi symbol, took shape in the hands of the two.

That wasn't the fluctuation of ordinary ninjutsu, but the strongest resonance generated by the bond between father and son that transcended time and space.

Uchiha Yue was not idle.

He knew that even if the centipede was severely injured, as long as the dragon vein remained connected, it would still launch a desperate counterattack.

"I'll see you off, Lord of the Heavenly Court."

Yue's right eye widened slightly, and a precise repulsive force erupted from his palm. It was not meant to destroy, but rather to transform into a powerful thrust that directly acted on the backs of Minato and Naruto.

This push caused the father and son to break the sound barrier in an instant.

The two of them transformed into a golden meteor, hurtling into the shattered armor!

Without any hindrance, at this moment of short circuit, Naruto and his son advanced unstoppably until they reached the very core.

"Do not--!!!"

The desperate screams of the centipede were drowned out by the enormous explosion.

The violent energy contained in the Tai Chi Spiral Ball erupted completely inside the core of the dragon vein, and the originally stable purple light began to collapse and disintegrate.

Meanwhile, Sara, guided by her shadow clone Yue, finally infused the bloodline of the Loulan royal family into the sealing platform on the control panel.

"Sever it!!!" Sara shouted, plunging the short sword into the core.

"Boom!"

The dragon vein energy beneath Loulan began to flow wildly backward, and the massive metal shell of the Centipede was pulverized by the aftershocks of the Tai Chi Spiral Ball the instant it lost its energy support.

As the smoke cleared, the intense purple light gradually subsided.

Sara successfully sealed the dragon vein, and the rampaging spatial distortion began to generate a powerful pulling force.

"Captain Yamato!!" Naruto looked at Yamato, whose body was beginning to turn transparent in the distance, and then looked at his own hands, which were also beginning to glow.

Minato stood not far from Tsuki, looking at this "traitorous ninja" with a complicated expression.

In that battle just now, Uchiha Yue not only displayed terrifying Mangekyou Sharingan, but also a deep and cunning mind that manipulates probability and human nature.

“Uchiha Tsuki...you clearly have this power, why did you betray the village?” Minato asked in a deep voice.

The moon stood quietly on the ruins, its kaleidoscope now reduced to a regular three-tomoe.

He looked at the water gate, his tone completely flat: "I have no reason to explain."

Minato opened his mouth as if to say something, but the powerful spacetime traction forced him to close his eyes.

"In order not to change the course of history, we must erase the memory of this period."

Upon hearing this, Naruto suddenly realized something and shouted at Minato, "Wait! I still have so many questions for you! Who are you?!"

“Minato Namikaze, your father.” Uchiha Tsuki spoke softly, instantly silencing the shouting Naruto.

"That's really true..." Minato smiled helplessly.

"I'm so proud of you, Naruto! You've become an excellent ninja!"

After saying that, Minato quickly began to form hand seals.

Time was of the essence; the dragon vein's light had begun to flicker intensely. He had to quickly seal the memories of everyone here to prevent the spacetime collapse caused by the "grandfather paradox."

This is itself part of the "corrective force".

"Uchiha Tsuki, although I don't know what position we'll be on after we regain our senses, I still advise you to go back to Konoha. There's still room for everything," Minato said in a deep voice while forming hand seals.

However, Uchiha Yue, standing atop the ruins, gently shook his head.

"The world will never change because of an individual's will, and neither will you, Minato Namikaze."

Before he finished speaking, Yue suddenly swung his hand, and several shuriken instantly turned into a rain of black smoke, shooting towards Minato from all sorts of tricky directions!

"Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!"

Chapter 10 Interference with Fate

"Uncle, what are you doing?!"

Naruto was still deeply moved by the sudden discovery that Minato was his father and the Fourth Hokage.

Seeing Uchiha Yue launch an attack without warning, his azure eyes instantly filled with rage.

"Uchiha Tsukuyomi! Don't you understand the immense disaster your actions will bring?!"

Minato's face also darkened at this moment.

In order to protect Naruto and the dissipating space-time portal, he had to forcibly interrupt the memory-erasing sealing technique. He swung his kunai into a golden light screen, deflecting all the incoming shuriken.

"Jingle bells—!"

Amidst the flying sparks, the memory-sealing technique completely failed.

"Disaster? Minato, you overestimate yourself and underestimate this world."

The reason he broke Minato's seal was not to kill him, but to conduct an experiment.

As a transmigrator, he was constantly suffocated by the invisible world-correcting force.

Changing White Fang's fate will backfire, changing Obito's fate will backfire, and changing Might Guy's fate will backfire.

So... what if he forcibly tears a hole in the movie's timeline, causing a logical conflict between the movie and the main timeline?

If Naruto Uzumaki returned to the future with the memories of "I've met my dad" and "I know who the Fourth Hokage is"; if Minato Namikaze lived with the memory of "My son's name is Naruto"...

What will happen to the world's corrective force if these two parallel memory lines intersect?

Should we unleash divine punishment to obliterate him outright, or forcibly distort reality to fix this plot hole?

He didn't know, but he dared to gamble.
