Chapter 95

, Parallel World 1 ends; Parallel World 2: One More Time

Chapter 95: The first parallel world ends; the second parallel world begins: One more time.

I want to go out.

The voice of a half-bodied nine-tailed fox echoed within the mental space:

Judging from Kurama's imprisonment, it's no less dramatic than the scene on the rooftop in Infernal Affairs where the villain says, "Give me a chance, I want to be a good person": "Tell Naruto. See if he'll let you out."

Then, the half-Nine-Tails went to ask Naruto Uzumaki:

Naruto Uzumaki asked, puzzled, "When I looked for you before, you were always ignoring me..."

That's because you're too bad at the game.

Naruto Uzumaki: "? Great. I think I should still..."

Half-Nine-Tails: "But I can make you stronger once. The other me, you agree, right?"

The complete Nine-Tails, having obtained half of its memories: "...

This is a one-time offer.

Upon learning that in the future he was being controlled by a masked brat... and that this person was very likely none other than Uchiha Obito, the one who respected his elders and risked his life to save his comrades... the complete Nine-Tails thought that he might occasionally be... well, you know.

In conjunction with Kushina's one:

At least it wouldn't be confined inside a little devil's body, and wouldn't be split in two by Minato.

In reality, after the three closed their eyes, the water giant outside continued to tumble, as if gathering some final, powerful attack. Blood was spilling from Hozuki Hayato's nose, mouth, and ears. Inside his armor, his bloodshot eyes widened as he stared intently at the Konoha members below: "I wonder what Kushina, Naruto, and this Mr. Lin Fan are like..."

As soon as Minato finished speaking, Lin Fan opened his eyes: "What do you want?"

Future Minato: "...It's nothing. I just wanted to let you know that the mission target has been rescued. Shall we withdraw?"

Lin Fan: "? That won't do."

Lin Fan didn't give Minato a chance to continue speaking. He raised his two fists and said, "You can leave now."

Leave this to us.

Kushina Uzumaki also raised her two fists: "As long as this warship named Makiranmaru exists, Rin will always be in danger..."

"For Rin, to prevent Jinchuriki from suffering..."

Naruto Uzumaki also raised his fist.

The three men stood in a triangle, their six fists clashing together:

The three of them said in unison, "Let's eliminate the source completely!"

With a thunderous boom, terrifying chakra surged forth from the three of them:

Future Minato, witnessing this scene, thought, "...That looks like my wife..."

Minato in the past: "...Lin Fan, your birth..."

Orochimaru: "Enough with the talk, let's get going! This continent is about to collapse without Wood Release chakra."

Upon hearing Orochimaru's words:

Several people present quickly left the scene.

Obito glanced back at the terrifying chakra gathered by the group: "Impressive... Will I be able to do that in the future?"

Future Minato, who was holding Kakashi, heard these words:

Gold, red, and green.

Three different colors of chakra formed a colorful rabbit head on the gradually melting Wood Release continent:

Half-Kushina: "Kushina, extract my chakra!"

It has the complete Nine-Tails' coordination:

Kushina easily extracted the chakra from Naruto's golden form, and even obtained more than Naruto himself: "And then?"

"Then give it to me."

Kushina had no doubts and passed the chakra to Naruto:

After Naruto received half of the Nine-Tails inside his body:

He transformed this portion of golden chakra into a form Naruto could absorb, then mixed in most of the crimson chakra that Naruto couldn't absorb: "Lin Fan! Now use your Wood Release to suppress Naruto! Then I will hand over control to Lin Xiaobai!!"

Lin Fan nodded and unleashed all of his Wood Release chakra.

The scarlet rabbit gradually emerged from the ground:

A giant humanoid rabbit holding a scarlet iron fork stood on it:

Having received the meaning from the half-body Nine-Tailed Fox, Lin Fan opened his eyes: "So that's how it is. So that's what happened... Armored Wooden Armor!"

Wood Release, imbued with suppressed chakra and emotions, appeared around the giant scarlet rabbit:

The iron fork in the scarlet rabbit's hand, now adorned with wood, seemed to transform into a flaming, deep red wooden fork.

Lin Xiaobai on top of the scarlet rabbit's head:

Lin Fan and the other two were inside the scarlet rabbit's belly: "Thank you, big fox."

After Lin Xiaobai finished speaking, he gathered his power on the crimson flames of the wooden fork:

A terrifying energy flickered at the crimson trident:

Hayato Hozuki: "?! Impossible! How could you possibly possess such power?! Wait! You're the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki?!"

Hayato Hozuki, who finally recognized Kushina's identity, stared wide-eyed:

Under Lin Xiaobai's control, the scarlet rabbit unleashed its strongest attack:

The three people and the rabbit split into four scenes: "Sunfire: Wood Release: Calamity God Fire!!!"

"Water Release: Super Water Iron Shield!"

The water giant, on the verge of collapse, was controlled by Hayato Hozuki, who forcefully absorbed all the Kirigakure ninja and his own chakra, creating a massive shield that blocked the water giant's path.

But the deep red wooden fork seemed to ignore it:

Swing it straight out:

Instantaneous penetration:

It pierced through Hozuki Hayato's armor, along with the water giant, him, and the black pipe behind him.

A sizzling sound emanated from the water giant's body:

Hayato Hozuki's dim eyes seemed to see many scenes:

Everything was going so smoothly... but now we've been defeated by a bunch of monsters... Konoha... I hate it...

In his memories, Hozuki Hayato becomes a wooden doll:

Next up is the Water Giant:

Then there was the entire massive warship:

The process took less than a second:

Everything turned into wood.

In the second, the entire wooden dummy and warship were engulfed in a super-fire-level crimson heat:

In the morning sunlight:

The light of this deep red flame was dazzling:

Who says ordinary people haven't tried?

Chakra Ship:

Seeing that thing had completely turned into wood and was now ablaze with deep red flames:

Orochimaru, who wanted to study the "Makiranmaru", fell silent for a moment:

Obito placed Rin on the deck, and the two Minatos were heartbroken to see Rin suffering like this.

The trio standing on the sea looked at the burning "Makiran Maru" before them:

Lin Fan: "Lin Xiaobai, are you alright?"

Lin Xiaobai leaned weakly on Lin Fan's shoulder.

"Lin Fan, I might need to sleep for a while... *snort*..."

Lin Fan nodded and patted Lin Xiaobai's head. After all, controlling such a huge amount of energy in one breath, even if it was only maintained for a few seconds, would be too much for any rabbit to handle: "Great, this is good for damaging the Jinchūriki..."

Naruto's voice suddenly stopped. Lin Fan turned his head and saw that Naruto had also fainted, and Kushina was holding him.

This project, which can be compared to the future Nine-Tails Mode in a few seconds, was most arduous for the central hub (Naruto) and the main controller (Lin Xiaobai).

The three returned to the chakra ship:

Not long after boarding the ship, they heard the news that Nohara Rin was dying: "No! Absolutely not!! Rin can still be saved, right, Kushina-nee, tell me!!"

Obito knelt on the ground and hugged Kushina's legs:

Kushina fell silent for a moment: "Obito, Rin's tailed beast energy was almost completely drained by that Hozuki clan ninja..."

Its vitality was also affected as a result... I'm sorry....

"No way, this can't be... You're lying to me... You're lying to me!!"

Lin Fan settled Lin Xiaobai in a spot, using his Wood Release technique to create a small parasol and a recliner, then walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Orochimaru: "Rin is dying... Wait, no, aren't you alright?"

He suddenly thought of Lin Fan's "medical ninjutsu that caused the change".

Upon hearing Orochimaru's words:

Both water gates simultaneously looked towards Lin Fan:

Kushina and Obito also looked at Lin Fan:

Lin Fan felt as if he had become humanity's last hope.

"Ahem. It's just saving lives. It's nothing. But I have one small request."

"I'll agree to anything you ask... except for Kushina."

Kushina: "? Minato, are you crazy? Lin Fan and I are fine, we just teamed up."

Future Minato: "...I believe you."

Kushina: "

If you trusted me, you shouldn't have hesitated! Damn it! I'm ignoring you!!!

Seeing that Kushina was angry, future Minato knew he would be kneeling on a washboard a lot when he got back. The past Minato patted his future self on the shoulder to comfort him: "Don't worry, I just want to learn Chidori."

Lin Fan smiled.

"Chidori? Don't you not have chakra properties?"

Orochimaru asked doubtfully.

Lin Fan: "? How do you know I don't have chakra properties? That was the old me! The current me has both water and earth properties!!"

Lin Fan: "Mind your own business! Alright, give me Lin, let me teach you how to use Lin to... save her!"

Obito: "?"

I have a feeling that Mr. Lin Fan seems to have mentioned the use of words...

Loquat Ten Treasures: "

Can someone untie me? I'm in the corner, my body is almost completely numb.

Before treating Rin, Lin Fan used his professional medical skills to examine her and found that her condition was even more serious than Kushina had described: "This is almost the same as having the Tailed Beast extracted... If the Tailed Beast were still intact and her body had not completely collapsed, Rin might have died on the spot even if Obito had rescued her... In that case, a level 3 hemostasis technique would not be enough."

[Hemostasis Technique: 20]

Evolution Point: 118

"evolution!"

Evolution Points -20, the evolution data of "Hemostasis" changes: "Hemostasis Evolution +3" → "Hemostasis Evolution +4": "Hemostasis efficiency increased by 1.5 times, and when continuously stopping bleeding for the injured, it will additionally restore a small amount of the injured person's life force."

The original wisp has become a tiny amount:

That should be enough to treat Lin.

Hemostasis!

At noon, the Kirigakure ninja stationed on the border of the Land of Water did not see Hozuki Hayato, so they hurriedly sent the news back to Kirigakure and sent people to investigate.

The "Makiranmaru" didn't even make it to the Land of Bears, so this scene didn't catch the attention of the ninjas and fishermen of the Land of Water.

The chakra ship returned to the Land of Fire.

Lin Fan's medical ninjutsu healed a dying girl, restoring her to full vitality in just four or five hours.

However, Obito said it wasn't safe enough, and he wanted to check Rin's breathing himself. As his face approached, Rin was waking up. Upon seeing Obito's face, she instinctively slapped him.

When Obito returned to shore, his face was covered in a red handprint: "I'm sorry, Obito..."

"It's okay, Lin, it's good that you're all better now."

Seeing the ambiguous atmosphere between the two teenagers, Lin Fan leaned against a tree branch on the beach, his body resting on the trunk, his shoulder for Lin Xiaobai to sleep on, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, his gaze fixed elsewhere: "Naruto, your Rasengan mastery isn't quite there yet. Your third father is busy right now, so I, your second father, will teach you."

"Yes, Father!"

Seeing the loving father-son relationship between Minato and Naruto in the past, Lin Fan yawned, then took out his water bottle and took a couple of sips. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Kushina again: "Kushina, I was really wrong. I shouldn't have been jealous."

"You have no idea what you did wrong! What were you doing when Rin was so badly injured! Where were you?! Are you still the Yellow Flash?!"

..sorry."

Seeing the couple arguing, Lin Fan clicked his tongue, put away the water bottle, and looked towards the back of the boat: "Orochimaru-senpai, are you sure this way of repairing the ship will actually fix it? Won't it explode?"

"Don't worry, you still don't trust me... Wind Release: Body Flicker Technique!"

Orochimaru vanished like a gust of wind, leaving Yamato still puzzled:

When I turned around, I saw that the engine I was repairing was starting to turn red and get hot.

With a loud boom, a small mushroom cloud appeared on the coast.

Young men and women still in ambiguous relationships, quarreling couples, young people watching a play, a sleeping rabbit, a white-haired boy lying like a useless salted fish next to the young people watching a play under the same tree, and a cold young man who has fled far away:

From behind the mushroom cloud emerged a black man named Yamato: "Orochi!!"

Orochimaru stepped forward innocently: "Sorry, Yamato, I studied biology. I'm not good at mechanics."

Lin Fan jumped down from the tree: "Yamato, you still believe Orochimaru? If you can believe everything he says, then you're not a cunning snake."

"So noisy," Lin Xiaobai murmured before falling asleep again. After all, Lin Xiaobai didn't have the resilient body of Naruto.

"See? He even woke up my Lin Xiaobai."

Yamato:

Should I apologize to your rabbit...? Damn it! I'd be a complete idiot if I trusted Orochimaru again!

After resting on the shore for several hours, the group reached the border and returned the boat to the border official.

The person in charge was a very friendly Uchiha ninja.

However, upon seeing the chakra ship that Yamato had surrendered:

The ship was in a terrible state, and its most important engine was damaged from chakra overload and had its core blown up during repairs... The usually friendly Uchiha ninja chose to put away his smile and handed Yamato a ticket:

Yamato: "?"

No way, this was Orochimaru's doing! What are you doing to me?!

The friendly Uchiha ninja said that regardless of who did it, he was fair and whoever repaired the damaged parts would have to pay for it.

However, Minato Namikaze was quite considerate; he took the blame himself. The incident originated from a member of his own team, so how could he let the customer bear the responsibility?

Seeing this, Yamato breathed a huge sigh of relief, while glaring fiercely at Orochimaru, who had almost made him work in another world to pay off his debts:

He's genuinely worried that with such a terrible teacher in the past, his future will be bleak.

After returning the ship, the group began to recount the details of the mission to the seemingly friendly Uchiha ninja:

Hearing about all the events that had transpired at the border, the Uchiha ninja couldn't help but sigh. But sighs aside, the fines still had to be paid. After all, this ship was one of the most expensive modes of transport on the border; repairs would cost at least a million, not to mention that Yamato had completely destroyed its core, resulting in losses in the tens of millions. He couldn't afford to bear that responsibility.

After explaining the mission details, the group rested for a day at the border before beginning their return journey.

Meanwhile, in the Water Country on the other side:

The ninja searched for a long time in the waters near their home but couldn't find the ship, the Makiran Maru, which was worth hundreds of millions.

They couldn't get any information from their own fishermen, so they even went so far as to spend money to ask for information from the Land of Bears:

I got the answer.

Good news: There's news.

Bad news: The ship is gone.

Yagura learned of the whereabouts of the "Makiran Maru" several days later:

Upon hearing that the "Makiran Maru," which Kirigakure had spent a fortune preparing for, might very well turn into a ball of flames, Yagura Karatachi fainted on the spot from anger.

Meanwhile, Madara Uchiha, underground, learned from White Zetsu the general details of the battle for the "Rin" ship: "It seems Tobi is still with Obito... That kid is up to no good."

"That damned Obito! He actually took Tobi away!"

spot:".

I'm talking about Ah Fei.

Black Zetsu:

However, the team, who were overjoyed to be returning, were completely unaware of all of the above:

Upon learning that Lin had returned alive:

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression was very complicated, but there was nothing he could do except take responsibility for compensating Minato for the damaged ship at the border.

Since this wasn't a mission, there will be no reward, but it will be recorded as an A-level mission.

Upon hearing that Hiruzen Sarutobi had added an extra completion record for each member of Minato's team:

All three of them clapped excitedly.

Kushina smiled, thinking to herself that the old man wasn't being stingy this time at least.

Jonin do earn a lot of money, but the housing prices in the core area of Konoha, within the city walls, are ridiculously high. Even someone as carefree as Sasuke, after marrying Sakura in Boruto, has experienced the pressures of life.

Lin Fan, along with Naruto and the Yamato trio, went to the shopping street.

He heard three times that a competitive eating contest was being held here:

Upon arriving at the scene, I discovered it was a special meatball competition to see whose meatballs were more popular, and of course, everyone could eat as many as they wanted: "Never mind, I suddenly don't want to eat anymore."

Are you kidding me? I came here to eat something good for free, not to get high blood sugar for free!

The two of them also didn't understand why Lin Fan suddenly didn't participate:

But soon after they participated in the competition, the two ate so many glutinous rice balls that they were sick of them:

As the sun set, the competition officially ended an hour after it began.

Lin Fan walked over, holding a grilled sausage in his hand:

Having recovered long ago, Lin Xiaobai happily ate a roasted green melon.

Neither Naruto nor Yamato won this match:

Then he looked at the winner of this round: Uchiha Itachi.

Uchiha Itachi was only 4 years old at the time.

This competition isn't about who can eat the most, but about who can distinguish the differences in texture and flavor of glutinous rice balls.

The real intention of the business is to get feedback from diners for improvement.

So Itachi truly lives up to his name; even when eating dumplings, he can accurately capture the opinions of every boss and earns the title of Konoha's Dumpling Emperor.

A few more days passed.

After Lin Fan and Kakashi had recovered sufficiently, Lin Fan learned the hand seals for Chidori from Kakashi:

However, since Lin Fan didn't have any Lightning Release chakra nature, the Chidori that appeared after he formed the hand seals manifested in a normal electromagnetic state:

Kakashi was trying to suppress his laughter when he saw Lin Fan hadn't mastered Chidori, but because he was wearing a mask, most people wouldn't be able to tell.

But Lin Fan could see it.

Are you laughing at me? Kakashi is always cunning, no matter which world he's in.

Check!"

Chidori: 1

Evolution Point: 103

After silently reciting the command, the panel appeared:

Lin Fan glanced at it a few times and then evolved the Thousand Birds without hesitation:

Evolution Point -1, new evolution data appears in inventory: "Chidori - Evolution +1": "Your Chidori will receive a slight increase in efficiency and effectiveness."

After reading the contents, Lin Fan felt that the power of the Chidori he used now was definitely stronger than before, but it was still not enough:

Continue to evolve!

Evolution Point 2: "Chidori - Evolution +2": "Your Chidori will receive a significant boost in efficiency and effectiveness."

"Evolve again!"

Evolution Point 10: "Chidori - Evolution +3": "Your Chidori will be twice as efficient and effective. Your Chidori can freely transform into whatever form you desire. When transforming, please be aware of your current chakra level."

Although it lacks the release capability of the evolved Rasengan, it gains an additional effect of being able to freely change its form: "What's wrong? If you really can't learn it, then forget it. Chidori isn't something you can learn in a day or two."

Kakashi's voice rang out.

"Who says I haven't learned it? Watch closely, this is the real Chidori!... Chidori!"

Lin Fan completed the hand seals, grasping his right hand with his left. A ball of Lightning Release chakra transformed into a visible electromagnetic current that danced in his palm.

Kakashi listlessly glanced at the electromagnetic current:

Then, staring wide-eyed at the electromagnetic current, he exclaimed, "What the hell?! Didn't you lack the Lightning Release chakra attribute?!"

Although one may have the opportunity to master the nature transformation of Lightning Release chakra even without the Lightning Release chakra nature, normal people would never bother to learn it. This is because it would take far longer than for someone without the chakra nature, and its power would be significantly weaker than that of someone born with it: "It's not over yet! 3000 Million Volts Thunder Bird!"

The lightning in Lin Fan's palm flashed rapidly and flew into the air, forming a large bird two or three meters in size.

The large bird was made entirely of electricity, and just from the sight of it spreading its wings and taking flight, Kakashi knew that this move was incredibly powerful!

"Damn it, you..."

He hasn't even learned such a cool move!

Kakashi couldn't help but push his Sharingan up from under his forehead protector... Hmm? That's not right. Am I seeing things?

After using his Sharingan, he noticed that Lin Fan's "3000 Million Volt Thunder Bird" didn't seem to have 3000 million volts... and the voltage and current flow was very chaotic, making it seem less powerful than a normal Chidori...

"Excuse me, Mr. Lin Fan, could you use this to hit that tree?"

Kakashi felt he needed to confirm it; as a Jonin, how could he judge a bird by its appearance?

Knowing the power of this move, Lin Fan put away the Thunder Bird: "I refuse."

Are you kidding me? You really think it's 3000 million volts? I just called it out for fun. Damn, even evolution didn't say it would require that much chakra after the transformation! It seems anything involving multipliers really does rely on numbers.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he just used the Thunder Bird Technique; in reality, the chakra required for this Thunder Bird Technique is almost equivalent to Lin Fan's current Wood Golem Technique.

Seeing Lin Fan refuse:

Kakashi was completely bewildered. Shouldn't a normal person at least try it out even if they know the power isn't enough? What's wrong with this guy?

Having mastered Chidori, Lin Fan decided to train it diligently on his own, so he decisively left Kakashi at the training ground and ran away at lightning speed.

Seeing Lin Fan run away, Kakashi was even more curious about the power of Lin Fan's Thunder Bird:

He runs away, he chases.

"Lin Fan! Let's settle this once and for all! Use Lightning Release!"

"don't want."

"If all else fails, I'll give you a handicap with one hand!"

"?"

When you use Chidori, you only have one hand, right?

Seeing that Lin Fan still refused, Kakashi didn't hesitate and, while chasing after him, formed hand seals and used Chidori:

Chidori!

Blue lightning crackled in Kakashi's palm:

Lin Fan turned around and saw this, and immediately used Thousand Birds as well:

Chidori!

Blue lightning crackled at Lin Fan's right hand:

The two bolts of lightning collided in an instant:

With a deafening boom, the surrounding flowers, grass, and greenery were shattered into tiny fragments by the lightning.

Lin Fan escaped, holding a slightly numb hand:

It's still far from good enough.

"As expected, your Chidori is quite weak!!"

Lin Fan: "...Wood Release: Great Forest Technique!"

Kakashi, who had just jumped up after defeating Lin Fan, was instantly grabbed by the thick, long wooden vine that appeared in Lin Fan's right hand:

Tied up and thrown on the ground:

Lin Fan walked over.

"Yes. My Chidori is weak. But I know Wood Release."

"If you're so capable, let's have a lightning style contest!"

"If you're so capable, let's have a Wood Release contest."

"...I don't know Wood Release."

"Then I recommend that you sign up for Orochimaru's training course. In just 365 days, you can learn Wood Release."

"Do you think I'm stupid? That's called becoming a test subject!"

Kakashi, as a Jonin, had heard about Orochimaru from Minato, not to mention Yamato's arrival, which further confirmed the "evidence" of Orochimaru's crimes.

"What's wrong with being an experimental subject? Just tell me if the experimental subject can become a Wood Release ninja."

That actually makes some sense...

Lin Fan and Kakashi practice Chidori at the training ground:

Meanwhile, the Hidden Mist Village's revenge arrived:

The losses amounted to hundreds of millions, primarily due to the technological achievements aboard the "Makiranmaru." They also lost over a hundred Kirigakure ninja, and one of the remaining three members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Juzo Biwa, was captured by Konoha.

Originally, they were demanding the Three-Tails Jinchuriki:

But now even the Hidden Mist Village is completely breached:

Kirigakure bluntly declared that if Konoha did not return the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, Juzo Biwa, and the ninja swords to Kirigakure, Kirigakure would fight Konoha to the death.

However, Lin Fan's team wasn't entirely sure how these events would ultimately unfold.

Because after Lin Fan learned Chidori, he said he was preparing to go back:

Firstly, they had stayed there for too long. Even Lin Fan himself wasn't sure if he would faint. If he suddenly fainted like Naruto and Yamato, that would be truly hopeless.

Secondly, their staying in Konoha means they'll have to continue working, completing missions, and even fighting for the village. They're not from this world, so if they die or get hurt, it would be a huge loss: "So, protect Rin well, cherish everything. Obito. And Kakashi."

Lin Fan stood at the main gate of Konoha Village, carrying his luggage:

Beside him were Orochimaru and Minato, who had brought many local specialties, as well as Naruto and Yamato: "I will. It's just that my body will probably need some time to recover."

One night, Tobi Uzumaki secretly slipped away from Obito, so Obito has lost Tobi and returned to his weak state, supported by Rin.

Kakashi nodded proudly.

Future Minato and Past Minato embrace each other: "Protect Kushina."

"I will."

Past Orochimaru and future Orochimaru shake hands in perfect unison: "Although I can't change too many things, at least I see change in you... The past is not something that remains unchanged."

"Heh... Things that move, those are the interesting things."

The two exchanged a knowing smile. In the past, Orochimaru's bag contained scrolls of software modification technology, a gift from the future Orochimaru.

In the future, Orochimaru also learned a great deal about what had happened after the past was altered:

Both were satisfied; it was an equal exchange based on mutual honesty, free from any self-interest or backstabbing.

"Son, although I am your third aunt, you must eat well and not be willful. In the other world, even if your first aunt and first uncle are dead, if you have the chance, remember to come and visit your third aunt and third uncle, okay?"

"I know, Third Sister."

Naruto Uzumaki cried out, and Kushina Uzumaki stroked his head:

Yamato looked at his future self, who had been rescued ahead of time, and said, "You've suffered."

Future Yamato: "It's not hard. I never expected things to turn out this way. But don't worry, I will protect Yukimi in place of Tenzo. I will never let Orochimaru kill her."

Future Orochimaru: "?"

Who do you take me for? Someone who kills innocent people at the drop of a hat?

After saying goodbye, Lin Fan used the Chakra Blade and An Lushan to travel through time a second time: "Goodbye, everyone!"

Come again when you have time!

"Naruto, remember the Ramen Style: Uzumaki Naruto Style: Giant Wind Wheel Ball that Third Uncle taught you!"

"Bang! What kind of teaching did you give me?! You scumbag father!!!"

"Obito hopes that you can truly become Hokage in the future."

"I will! Even a younger Minato-sensei!!"

"Have a safe journey, Minato-sensei!"

Countless words suddenly ceased with a loud boom from where Lin Fan and his group were standing:

The spot where Lin Fan stood was taken away along with several meters of soil:

Rin Nohara: "The teachers... they've left..."

Minato patted Nohara Rin's head: "Don't worry, the teachers in this world will continue to protect you."

Obito: "I will definitely become the next Hokage when my teacher returns!"

Kushina: "

Orochimaru:

Kakashi:

Minato gave an awkward laugh: "Is that so... then good luck, Obito..."

Lin Fan and his group entered a space filled with lightning and thunder:

Standing on a patch of muddy ground:

As many different scenes appeared around them, Lin Fan asked, "What do you think the next world we'll arrive in will be like?"

Minato Namikaze suddenly felt even more excited about the next world, regardless of whether it was still the future world or not, because at least he had learned a glimpse of the future from it:

Even if it might not be discovered in the original world.

"Who knows. The ones who benefited the most this time were probably Lin Xiaobai and Naruto."

Lin Fan sat on the muddy ground, looking at the energy extraction technique of Yin-Yang Release that had been mastered by activating Crimson Rabbit Mode... Simply put, Lin Xiaobai could now cultivate chakra, but his chakra lacked an attribute.

However, Kurama said that Lin Xiaobai possesses Yin-Yang Release chakra refining abilities, similar to those of Tailed Beasts, and that he can use Tailed Beast Balls when he has more chakra in the future.

Naruto, having sensed the malice of half the Nine-Tails in advance, only needs to return to retrieve the key left by Minato Namikaze to unlock the prison and successfully transform into the Golden Naruto. After training and adapting with the half-Nine-Tails for a period of time, Kurama Mode is also a possibility.

As for how he knew about the key, it's because Naruto removed the sticker sealing his body and saw his first father. Naruto then said he punched his first father hard, and that he no longer needed his first father, who was heartless and abandoned him to grow up alone, now that he had a second and third father.

Naruto's father felt incredibly conflicted upon hearing this: but he was just a wisp of chakra. In other words, from the moment he appeared, he had seen everything Naruto had gone through and knew how much suffering Naruto had endured. However, this chakra wouldn't be transmitted to the Pure Land, which is why the Fourth Hokage, Minato, didn't know how Naruto was doing after his resurrection.

However, it can be considered that half of the Nine-Tails, wanting to escape, actively gave its chakra to Naruto's father to maintain its presence within its body. Previously, Naruto's father couldn't emerge because it was a chakra sealed within the spiritual space. Once it appeared, the countdown to the release of its physical body would begin. Therefore, Naruto's father's appearance under normal circumstances serves to restore Naruto's seal.

But unexpectedly, Naruto reconciled with Kurama so early, and even encountered two groups of people from the past: "Child of Prophecy... Kurama, do you think Lin Fan will be that Child of Prophecy?"

Inside the cell, upon hearing Naruto's father's voice, the half-formed Nine-Tails, lying prone, said: "Are you kidding me? That kid isn't from our world at all. He's from another world. If such a thing really exists, I think Naruto is the child of prophecy for our world."

The half-body Nine-Tailed Fox suddenly remembered the Sage of Six Paths' prophecy: Old man, isn't your prophecy a bit too long in the past, and the process is far too damn complicated? It almost killed me.

When Naruto was unconscious, even half of the Nine-Tails was resisting the will of the world.

Yamato might die first:

But the Nine-Tails and Naruto Uzumaki weren't much later either:

This is one of the reasons why he was willing to take the initiative to reconcile with Naruto.

Konoha 63th year.

The Konoha Twelve Konoha Youngsters graduated.

The Uchiha clan had long been wiped out, leaving only one orphan named Uchiha Sasuke.

Team 7 received a C-rank escort mission from Tazuna, a drunken middle-aged man from the Land of Waves who had a background in construction:

On the way, they encountered two rogue ninja from Kirigakure:

Sasuke barely managed to cope:

Naruto was scared half to death:

Sakura's performance was satisfactory:

Hidden in the shadows, Kakashi struck with lightning speed, instantly killing two Chunin-level rogue ninja from Kirigakure:

After some provocation, Team 7 continued their mission to the Land of Waves, continuing to serve as Tazuna's bodyguard and fight against the Gato Group.

After learning about the Land of Waves on their journey, the three members of the team were deeply moved:

Having experienced his father's suicide, Obito's gift of his eyes, personally killing Rin, the Nine-Tails' attack, and the Uchiha clan massacre, Kakashi was already disheartened.

He had long known that the world was unfair, so after hearing Tazuna's story, the elite Jonin's expression didn't change much.

Not long after landing, Class 7 encountered their first obstacle in life:

Zabuza Momochi, a Jonin-level rogue ninja from Kirigakure!

The duel between the two Jonin greatly shocked Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura Haruno, and their employer Tazuna.

After a fierce battle between the two, Kakashi was still careless and was kicked into the water by Zabuza.

Zabuza stood behind the drowning Kakashi: "You've fallen for my trap... Water Release: Water Prison Technique!"

Trapped inside the water prison, Kakashi Hatake formed hand seals, searching for a weakness to break through, while shouting to his team of three, "Run! This guy is a Jonin, not someone you Genin can handle!!"

"Run away? Sharingan Kakashi, aren't you underestimating me, Momochi Zabuza...? Water Release: Water Clone!"

A water clone emerged from the river, stepping on Naruto's headband: "Kids like you can't possibly understand the true meaning of being a ninja."

Just as Zabuza continued speaking:

A thunderous roar erupted from between the water clones and Naruto and the others:

Suddenly, a cloud of dust rose from the water vapor, obscuring everything inside.

But the sound can be heard.

"Cough cough cough, damn it, where have I ended up this time? If something's wrong, we'd better run... Wait, how did we end up inside a ninja jutsu? Could this be a battlefield?"

"Brother Lin Fan, don't jinx it! The battlefield is a deadly place!!"

Lin Fan: "What are you yelling about if you've never been in a war!"

Naruto Uzumaki: "...That seems to make sense too."

Orochi said, "Don't worry, the chakra levels in the vicinity are all pretty average. The strongest among the Qiji is only a Jonin."

Minato Namikaze: "It's just that I always felt there was some power in the two chakra streams nearby..."

The sounds continued to emerge:

Even those present who hadn't clearly seen who was inside were now completely bewildered.

Hong Youchengren Ling Shi:

Hong, the prime minister, was in the water dungeon: "Teacher...?"

Upon hearing the word "teacher," Zabuza glanced at Kakashi with slight confusion: "Kakashi's teacher? Then it really is you, Kakashi!"

As the smoke cleared, Minato Namikaze, who was standing on a patch of earth, walked down the steps and saw Kakashi Hatake trapped in the water prison opposite him, along with Zabuza, who was holding Kakashi captive. He waved his hand and said, "Didn't you see they were fighting? Minato, couldn't you have been a little more strict?"

The giant snake said with some helplessness.

"Sorry, sorry, I just saw Rikito. But judging from Kakashi's age, he's probably from the future. Huh, Naruto, what are you doing... Ryoujo Naruto?"

Seeing Naruto Uzumaki stunned, Minato followed his gaze and saw the stunned trio of Team 7 and Tazuna on the other side. He was also stunned.

"So we've returned to this point in time. Thankfully, everything is still in time."

Naruto Uzumaki smiled slightly. For the first time, he was grateful for this time-travel experience. Not only did it allow him to meet his second and third fathers, but it also gave him the opportunity to return to the past and change what he wanted to change.

Lin Xiaobai: "Naruto seems very happy. What's he happy about?"

Lin Fan yawned: "Maybe it's because he's finally able to show off in front of Sasuke, and he's happy about that."

Naruto Uzumaki: "? What?! Cough cough, I didn't!"

I overheard their conversation:

And that big Naruto who looks a lot like Naruto:

Uchiha Sasuke: "Naruto, this Junjin isn't your father, is he?"

Naruto in the past: "??? My father? No way? My father looks several years older than me?"

Sakura Haruno: "You know what, Sasuke-kun was right, this must be Naruto's father, right?"

Dazner: "6"

"Speaking of which, is this the time to talk about this? Shouldn't we be fighting this ninja named Bokuji Zabuza?"
