Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

Scorpion's tone remained icy, but his rapid, uninterrupted reply betrayed his true feelings.

It could be for parents, or it could be for eternity.

“Very good, compose yourself, Sasori.” Yue turned and walked out. “Time waits for no one. Come with me, we’ll go back to the Second Shinobi World War together.”

The current situation is stabilizing, presenting a good strategic window of opportunity.

Aside from those noisy big names, there weren't many events in the main world that required his attention.

Let's see if we can take advantage of this time to make Scorpion his employee.

Moreover, the parents of a genius like Scorpion must also be quite talented. Bringing them into our service would be a way to fill the talent gap in mechanical engineering in Loulan.

……

The deepest part of Loulan's underground is the core of the dragon vein.

The purple chakra, like an inverted ocean, emitted a deep rumble under the restraint of the seal.

Uchiha Hikaru was already waiting there.

She was wearing a red and white casual outfit with a short sword at her waist. When she saw Yue approaching with Sasori of the Red Sand, she immediately went to greet them.

“He is Scorpion, the ‘chief architect’ of my future arsenal.”

The two cold-blooded people exchanged a glance, and then fell silent.

Yue smiled helplessly, then slowly closed her eyes. In her left eye socket, the Mangekyou Sharingan, which relied on the Ming Seal to provide its power, instantly emitted an eerie red light.

"Are you ready, light?"

"Anytime is fine." The girl's hand rested on the hilt of the knife, her eyes instantly turning incredibly cold.

“Anytime.” Hikaru’s hand rested on the hilt of his sword, his eyes cold and stern.

Scorpion gripped the scroll filled with first-aid medicine tightly, remaining silent. He was quite curious about this dragon vein.

"Let's go then!"

Yue swiftly formed hand seals, and a powerful force of attraction pierced into the turbulent core of the dragon vein below!

"BOOM—!!!"

A purplish-black beam of light shot into the sky, twisting violently in mid-air like an angry dragon.

"Eight meanings combined!"

An invisible chain of causality has forcibly anchored a distant coordinate spanning decades!

"Increase our success rate of traveling to the beginning of the Second Shinobi World War to an absolute 100%!"

Chapter 109 Facing the Scorpion of Parents

"BOOM—!!!"

As the purplish-black spacetime vortex suddenly collapsed, Uchiha Tsuki, Uchiha Hikaru, and Sasori of the Red Sand landed safely under the gravitational control of Ame-no-Naka.

A raging desert wind swept in instantly, carrying coarse sand that lashed against my face with a rustling sound.

"Is this... the border of the Land of Wind?"

"Hold your breath and gather your chakra."

Uchiha Yue grabbed Sasori's shoulder and quickly scanned the area under the blazing sun.

"The landing point of the spacetime jump can only be locked on the physical coordinates of the dragon vein energy. Now, we are in Loulan at the beginning of the Second Shinobi World War."

"World War II..."

"I really traveled through time..."

During that nightmarish period, Sunagakure and Konoha engaged in a brutal, meat grinder-like battle on the border in their struggle for fertile land.

His parents, the most outstanding puppeteers in Sunagakure, were killed on the battlefield by the legendary Sakumo Hatake of Konoha at that time!

"The main battlefield between Sunagakure and Konoha is in the area of ​​the Land of Rivers and Mount Kikyo, which borders the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire. We are at least two days' journey from there..."

"However, being able to witness the power of time and space makes this trip worthwhile."

When Scorpion speaks, his tone reveals little emotion.

The moon interrupted him, and the three tomoe in his left eye instantly connected to form a kaleidoscope pattern of starlight dice.

"If all else fails, we can just time travel again. We have plenty of time anyway."

"Eight meanings combined!"

"Based on the current timeline, the probability of successfully deducing the exact location and remaining time when Sakumo Hatake encountered your parents in battle is 100%!"

"Click".

As the law of causality was forcefully manipulated, a canyon coordinate and a countdown hourglass clearly appeared in his mind.

"Seven hours remain. The location is the border of the Land of Rivers, at the Gorge of Wind."

Moon took out several special kunai and distributed them to Light and Scorpion.

In the blink of an eye, the space shifted, and the three of them quickly disappeared.

Seven hours later.

The border of the land of rivers, the Gorge of the Wind.

The sky was overcast, and a fierce wind swept through the steep canyon, howling like ghosts and wolves.

The bottom of the canyon has been completely leveled by powerful ninjutsu.

Everywhere were rocks shattered by explosive tags and broken puppet parts, and the air was thick with the smell of rust and blood.

In the center of the battlefield, two elite Jonin from Sunagakure, controlling sophisticated mecha puppets, stood back to back, staring intently at the man in front of them who held a short sword that emitted a dazzling white light.

The man had a silver ponytail and a cold yet compassionate gaze.

His Konoha vest was stained red with the blood of his enemies, but the oppressive feeling of despair was like a mountain, making it hard to breathe.

"Konoha's White Fang..."

The scorpion, hiding in the shade of the treetops high in the canyon, stared indifferently at the silver-haired man.

And the Sand Village couple opposite White Fang were the parents he had longed for day and night since childhood!

Although his feelings have faded now, he seemed to feel a slight stirring in his heart when he actually faced his parents.

He silently raised his hands, intending to...

"Don't act impulsively."

Yue lowered her voice and firmly pressed down on Xie's hand, which was about to pull out the scroll.

On the battlefield, Sakumo Hatake made his move.

There was no unnecessary talk, no fancy ninjutsu, only pure taijutsu.

"Shh!"

A white bolt of lightning instantly tore through the dark canyon.

White Fang's swordsmanship is a killing technique that abandons all complicated hand seals and pushes speed and lethality to the absolute extreme.

Even the scorpion parents' near-perfect puppet defense formation was as fragile as paper in the face of this white light.

The puppet's defensive mechanisms were instantly severed, and the short sword, radiating a deadly white light, mercilessly slashed towards the throats of the scorpion parents!

"Now! Shatter, [Mirror Flower, Water Moon]!"

Uchiha Yue let out a low shout in his heart.

An extremely subtle Yin-style spiritual fluctuation, just a second before White Fang's blade pierced through flesh, silently covered the entire canyon like ripples on water!

In Hatake Sakumo's view, his short sword sliced ​​open the throats of two Sunagakure elites without any hindrance, and scalding blood sprayed onto his arm.

He watched expressionlessly as the two men lay in pools of blood, then stepped forward and cleanly removed their Sand Village headbands and mission scrolls as proof of their identities.

"War is just that cruel."

White Fang sighed, sheathed his sword, turned around, and disappeared into the end of the canyon in a few leaps.

However, beneath the veil of illusion, the true scene is—

The instant White Fang swung his sword, Yue used the ultimate gravity of [Heavenly Lord] to precisely shift Sasori's parents half a foot backward!

The blade grazed their necks, leaving a shallow bloodstain, but it did not damage their major arteries!

Immediately afterwards, Yue formed hand seals with lightning speed, and the two corpses he had casually brought on the battlefield were perfectly placed in their original positions by the Disappearance Technique and the displacement of gravity!

The ones with white teeth slitting throats and taking headbands were all those two lifelike fake corpses!

Only after the aura of White Fang had completely faded away did Yue remove the Mirror Flower Water Moon.

"Tick."

Yue picked up the scroll about the dragon vein and waited silently.

He returns immediately whenever the world turns hostile.

After all, back when they saved Minato...

One second, two seconds...

Nothing happened.

Scorpion's parents are, in the end, nothing more than nameless 'background characters', and the corrective force won't pay much attention to them.

Perhaps, in the 'fate' He was examining, these two were merely dispensable.

As long as White Fang "believes" he killed them, as long as the "ending" of this battle conforms to historical records, and as long as Sasori of this world embarks on the lonely path of "creating puppets," the Correction Force is too lazy to check whether the corpses on the ground are real or fake!

Key figures are busy exploiting loopholes, while the fate of ordinary people is not even worth a second glance.

Yue pondered His logic in her mind.

After all, it might be the final boss, so it's best to know about it early on.

As Uchiha Tsuki gazed at the gray sky, pondering what was still worth taking away from this era.

Below the canyon, Sasori of the Red Sand silently manipulated the chakra threads.
