From the night of genocide, marching towards the strongest.

"Sasuke?"

Upon hearing this, Kakashi seemed to snap out of his daze, but when he looked at Sasuke, he paused again, muttering to himself:

"Your eyes?"

"It was just a coincidence, nothing more."

Sasuke shook his head, showing no intention of discussing the matter further.

"Sasuke!"

At this moment, Sakura, who seemed to have been holding back for a long time, stepped forward, her emerald green eyes filled with an undisguised plea, and said, "Go back to the village, Sasuke. The Fifth Hokage will definitely uphold justice for what happened to you."

To show her respect, Sakura didn't call Tsunade "teacher," but instead addressed her as "Fifth Hokage."

Even if the Fifth Hokage doesn't uphold justice for you, I...

At this point, Sakura paused, then gritted her teeth and said, "I, Sakura Haruno, and my fellow Class 7 members will definitely stand up for justice for you!"

"Come back, Sasuke!"

Indra's Blade, it's been around for a while now.

Sasuke glanced at the katana on the girl's back, then fixed his gaze on her eyes.

The girl met his gaze fearlessly, her eyes filled with frankness and sincerity.

After a moment of silence, Sasuke smiled gently and said, "Thank you, Sakura."

"But that's not why I'm not going back to Konoha."

"What is that!?"

Naruto scratched his head and anxiously pressed for an answer.

Although he couldn't understand what Sakura meant by upholding justice, he could hear the refusal in Sasuke's voice.

Sasuke still didn't want to go back to the village.

"Why won't you go back to the village, Sasuke?"

"I have my own path to walk, Naruto."

To sum it up simply, just as Naruto was about to speak again, Sasuke tossed a glass bottle from his hand.

"This is?"

Naruto took it and stared at the transparent, colorless liquid inside, momentarily stunned.

"Hurry up and get stronger, Naruto. A huge upheaval is about to sweep through the ninja world. Your current strength is good, but it's far from enough to face the enemies to come."

In the original timeline, after Naruto mastered Sage Mode, his strength was considered to be the strongest below Madara and Hashirama.

In this timeline, Naruto is even stronger than he was back then, and he has mastered the Eight Gates Sage Fox Mode, which is even more powerful than the Sage Fox Mode.

Even if Sengoku Madara or Hashirama were to face Naruto now, he wouldn't fare well.

Even against the Samsara Eyes, if he uses his Immortal Staff well, he might still be able to defeat him.

However, this only applies when there is a chance. If Madara Uchiha had used Limbo: Border Jail from the beginning, it would still have been an instant kill.

Therefore, facing the upcoming turmoil, especially the mysterious Otsutsuki who could reappear at any time, Naruto's power is still insufficient, far from sufficient.

"The contents of this box can help you become stronger. You can give it to Sakura. As a medical ninja, Sakura should know how to use it."

The glass bottle Sasuke gave to Naruto contained the Ten-Tails cells from the Divine Tree, which Sasuke had perfectly fused with after gathering the four direct descendants.

Its vitality is even stronger than that of the first generation of cells, and it is relatively mild, unlike the first generation of cells which are highly invasive and dangerous.

Once Naruto injects these cells, it's equivalent to gathering the Ten-Tails' bloodline from the Divine Tree, allowing the bloodline to revert to its ancestral state, and further enhancing his power.

Sasuke will eventually leave this world, so the role of guardian of the ninja world, which should have been shared by Naruto and Sasuke in the original timeline, may fall on Naruto alone in this timeline.

Therefore, Naruto, who alone bears the responsibility of protecting the ninja world, must be stronger than Naruto and Sasuke in the original timeline.

Perhaps due to his intelligence and experience, Naruto didn't do very well in many things.

But with his eternally childlike heart and unwavering spirit, he truly is the best guardian of this world.

It's alright if Naruto might hand over the Ten-Tails cells from the Divine Tree to Konoha for research; Sasuke had already anticipated this. The more research results they produce, the better.

It can be considered as him leaving the world with a bit more depth when facing future crises.

"Well then, let's end our reminiscing here."

After speaking, Sasuke's eyes flashed between his brows, and he released Yomotsu Hirasaka.

"Sasuke, wait!"

"Naruto, just as I said, the ninja world is about to face a great upheaval. You must hurry up and become stronger, because the responsibility of protecting the ninja world in the future will be entrusted to you."

Without turning his head, Sasuke left behind those words and stepped into the spatial portal.

"That bastard, he just left without saying a word, without even explaining what a great upheaval was or what his responsibility to protect the ninja world was."

Sakura sighed softly, stepped forward, and spoke to Naruto, who looked indignant:

"Let me see what Sasuke gave you first, Naruto. Sasuke is right. Judging from today's events, the ninja world is about to face a major upheaval. Not only do you need to become stronger, but we all need to become stronger together."

..........

Inside the central tower of Amegakure Village.

"How many Tailed Beasts have been collected so far?"

Inside the meeting room, Madara Uchiha unceremoniously took the seat of honor. At this moment, he seemed to have completely forgotten what had happened in the giant pit of the Sanctuary, and focused all his attention on the Eye of the Moon plan.

Black Zetsu responded in a deep voice:

"Lord Madara, the organization previously sent two members to Sunagakure to capture the One-Tailed Jinchuriki. Judging from the timing, they have arrived by now. If all goes as expected, we will soon collect a Tailed Beast."

"So, you haven't even collected a single Tailed Beast yet?"

Madara Uchiha frowned.

Black Zetsu explained, “Lord Madara, there is still a month before the Three-Tails is resurrected. Our original plan to collect the Tailed Beasts was to start a month later, but then Sasuke Uchiha attacked the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki. To avoid any unnecessary accidents, we started the plan ahead of schedule. But before the plan was even started, something happened at the Sanctuary Pit.”

"You mean, Sasuke Uchiha attacked the Jinchuriki?"

Upon hearing this, Madara Uchiha frowned even more deeply and muttered, "Why did he attack the Jinchuriki? Could it be that the Six Paths power he possesses now is also related to this?"

Madara Uchiha felt that he had vaguely guessed the truth, or if not, there was a great deal of connection between the two.

"I can't wait any longer. Give me all the information on the Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts. I want to collect the Tailed Beasts myself."

To avoid any unnecessary accidents, Madara Uchiha only thought for a moment before deciding to take action himself.

And it has to be fast, so fast that no one can react.

Especially Uchiha Sasuke!

Even someone as proud and confident as Madara Uchiha had to admit that there was a huge gap between him and Sasuke Uchiha.

If Sasuke Uchiha personally stops him, he will be unable to complete his plan.

"Yes, Madam Madara."

Black Zetsu quickly handed over all the information on the Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts to Madara Uchiha.

"One tail, two tails, four tails..."

Madara Uchiha's eyes quickly scanned the documents, and when his gaze landed on the information about the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, a hint of apprehension flashed in his eyes.

"As for the Nine-Tails, leave it until the last one. After the Three-Tails is resurrected a month later, we will capture them together."

He then addressed Obito Uchiha, who had remained silent since entering the meeting room:

"Obito, you're coming with me to Iwagakure to catch the Five-Tails and the Four-Tails."

Although Obito's power was insignificant in his eyes, his Kamui space-time teleportation was still extremely convenient. Only with Obito's Kamui help was he able to capture all the tailed beasts within a day.

"understood."

Obito Uchiha's eyes narrowed, and he stepped forward, placing his hand on Madara Uchiha's shoulder. The next moment, the two of them vanished from the conference room.

Before disappearing, Madara Uchiha had this thought in his mind.

I must find a way to increase my strength.

My strength is not enough.

That's far from enough...

..........

Just as Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha were capturing the tailed beasts, Sou Otsutsuki also arrived at a mysterious underground palace in the ninja world.

As Otsutsuki looked up the steps, a large gate bearing the Hyuga clan crest came into view through her Byakugan eyes.

After losing the temporary boost of the Great Tenseigan's chakra, her eyes reverted back to the Byakugan form.

…………

There was a problem with my computer, so this is a temporary code from my phone; there might be some awkward phrasing.

As mentioned earlier, Shippuden will be the primary source, with Boruto as a supplement, and Boruto will not be used entirely.

I originally thought the main family that Touya mentioned would develop in that direction, but after the appearance of that Otsutsuki god, it felt like a fantasy novel with a protagonist ascending to immortality, and the main family setting seems to have become a scrapped idea.

The Boruto series does not use any of the plot settings after Isshiki's death, and characters like Edacord, who look very young, do not appear. Amado in this book is just someone who wants to resurrect his daughter.

These were added later and were free of charge.

Chapter 354 The Difference Between Byakugan, The Five Kage Summit!

"Is this the Tenseigan passed down from the Hyuga clan? It looks much bigger than I saw in my previous memories."

"It is even much larger than the Tenseigan used by the Otsutsuki branch family on the moon to destroy the Otsutsuki main family, second only to the golden Tenseigan of Hamura Shrine."

A spatial portal appeared, and Sasuke stepped out and stood next to Otsutsuki.

Looking at the blue cross mark and the caged bird curse mark with two opposite hooks on the altar in front of him.

Surrounded by countless dense lines formed by Yin Release, the purple Reincarnation Eye stone sculptures couldn't help but sigh.

"However, this is normal. After all, it is the result of the convergence of the eye power of all the branch families of the Hyuga clan over the past thousand years. It is a cage that has imprisoned the branch families of the Hyuga clan for thousands of years with blood and tears, and deprived them of their freedom."
