Chapter 315 Holding Hands 1
Chapter 315 Holding Hands 1
Sage Mode will greatly enhance Naruto's abilities, including ninjutsu, genjutsu, taijutsu...
Although Naruto is not known for his strong taijutsu skills, he does have a strong body.
I asked Naruto to spar with me in Sage Mode, and tried my best to familiarize myself with his speed and strength.
With no advantage in ninjutsu and taijutsu, illusion seems to be Naruto's only weakness, but as a Jinchūriki, with the Nine-Tails in his body to remind him, ordinary illusions are ineffective against him.
For a moment, I felt that Naruto didn't have any special skills, because he was very strong in every aspect, almost a "perfect" strong man with no shortcomings. Although he had told me which ninjutsu he would use before, and even let me know the characteristics of those moves, in the face of absolute strength, that information was only better than nothing.
Would it be possible to let Neji's Rinnegan use the chakra-stripping trick on him?
Sasuke said that the Samsara Eye has the ability to absorb other people's chakra... If I can open the Samsara Eye, can I absorb Naruto's chakra? But if I don't have the Sage Mode, can I absorb Naruto's Sage Chakra?
I was thinking about how to defeat Naruto like this.
Is it better to strike before he enters Sage Mode? Or is it safer to master Sage Mode myself...
In such a high-intensity battle, I desperately input chakra into my eyes to see his movements clearly.
After having the Mangekyō Sharingan for many years, I once again felt the feeling of being about to open my eyes -
It would be great if I could master the Rinnegan before returning to Earth.
Sasuke said that the Rinnegan can give birth to new eye techniques, and I am very much looking forward to it.
There was no change in the weather on the moon. I had no idea how long Naruto and I had been fighting. It seemed like his stamina was endless, as if he could fight the enemy intensively for a whole day.
We didn't stop until Gaara came over and called me to eat.
The same seemed to be true for Sasuke and Neji, and they only stopped when Shikamaru went to yell at them to stop.
When Neji came back, I asked him curiously, "Did you gain anything?"
There was something subtly wrong with his expression, "Nothing."
After we had lunch, Sai also came back.
"It has been confirmed that the moon has completely stopped approaching, and the Earth is safe."
Shikamaru breathed a sigh of relief, "Does that mean we can set off back to Earth?"
Sai nodded: "That's right."
Sakura showed joy on her face. It was not comfortable to stay on the dark and desolate moon, and the food we brought was almost used up. But Sasuke and Naruto were silent.
Ningji looked at me and said, "Asaro, is there anything you haven't finished yet?"
I lowered my eyes and thought: I have confirmed that the future of this world is not what I am most satisfied with. I also know how to extract the tailed beast to save the life of the Jinchūriki. I also know how to awaken the Ten-Tails and unseal Kaguya. I have collected information about Naruto and Sasuke, obtained information about the Samsara Eye and the Rinnegan, and learned about Orochimaru and the Sage Mode...
In the end, there was only one thing left - to go to the pool of water on the way back and fully understand the past of this world - including how Uchiha Madara failed, and the truth about Uchiha Obito that Naruto had been hesitant to tell before.
"There's only one thing left. Let's go back." I said, "Our world... is also waiting for us."
After a short rest - mainly to let Sai, who had just arrived, rest for a while, we once again boarded Sai's ink bird and crossed the sea.
I also know what Sasuke did when he arrived - his Susanoo flapped its huge wings and carried him across the sea.
"Very good," Shikamaru said, "In that case, Sasuke will take Toneri to fly with Susanoo, I will be in one group with Sai, Sakura and Asaka will be in one group, and Naruto and Gaara will be in one group."
Gaara raised his eyes and asked, "I don't need to continue with the Sand Release?"
"With our current number of people, Naruto will have to ride the Ink Bird alone in the end. Why don't you go in a group and not waste resources?" Shikamaru said, looking around and looking at Sasuke: "What's wrong? Sasuke, do you have any opinions?"
Sasuke looked at me, then at Sakura: "…No, nothing."
Naruto watched me walk towards Sakura, but he didn't complain about why he wasn't in the same group with me. Maybe he also understood that he should get used to the feeling of parting with me.
I sat behind Sakura, and she smiled and said to me, "If you feel uneasy, you can put your arms around my waist."
"May I?"
"Of course! The big bird flies so high and has to fly so far. If you always use chakra to absorb it, your body will become stiff. It will be more comfortable if you relax occasionally."
"Okay, thank you." I gently pulled the back of her clothes, but when the black bird flapped its wings, I was pushed by inertia and pressed against Sakura's back, letting out a low "wow".
"Eh? What, what happened?" Sakura was a little overwhelmed and said, "Did my body hit you because it was too hard?"
She smiled sheepishly and said, "I once carried a mission subject on my back before, and she told me that my body was too hard and not like a girl's at all."
I tilted my head to look at her profile and shook my head: "No! Sakura's body... is much softer than a boy's! When we leaned against each other, it was so comfortable that I was a little surprised!"
"Yes, is that so? Hehehe, thank you."
Sasuke's Susanoo was flying side by side with us. He was located between Susanoo's eyebrows, and his gaze from afar was subtle and complex.
……
The return journey was extremely smooth and we soon arrived at the island connected to the earth and found the exit at that time, which is now the entrance.
Sheren had been silent the whole time, but suddenly he said, "Chaolu, are you really going to take me to Earth, brand me like a bird in a cage, and make me someone else's slave for life?"
I turned my head and looked at him. After losing the Rinnegan... no, after losing Hanabi's eyes, he kept his eyes closed, looking decadent and haggard.
"I originally thought that if I could return to Konoha, I would wait for the Hyuga family to brand you as a caged bird and then twist your fate... After all, after I left, the caged bird would be in the hands of the Hyuga family, and it would be hard to feel at ease. But now that I think about it, maybe I can't wait until that time." I thought about it, "Okay, then I will twist your fate now-"
I placed my hands on his empty eye sockets and said, "I will twist your fate of freedom and put shackles on you. You must obey all of Shikamaru's orders until one day, he agrees to pardon you."
When I put my hand down, two intact white eyes appeared in his empty eye sockets.
Toneri stared at me in amazement, and Shikamaru was surprised: "Wait, why me?"
"Because I always feel that... Naruto might just forgive him." I glanced at Naruto, and he scratched his hair. "But Toneri made such a big mistake, he must be judged by the whole world... I think if it was Shikamaru, he would definitely be able to distinguish rewards and punishments and find the right balance."
"Aaaah!" Shikamaru looked at Toneri with a headache, "...Then I will be in a big trouble, right?"
Neji said: "This is what it means when someone is more capable, Shikamaru."
"Do you consider this as comfort?!"
He looked like he had a headache, and forced Toneri to jump into the pool helplessly, followed by Sakura and Sai, Sasuke and Gaara.
When Sasuke passed by me, he glanced at me but said nothing and lowered his eyes.
Naruto and Neji stayed by my side in the end. It seemed that neither of them expected the other to exist, and they couldn't help but look at each other.
Neji hesitated, then backed off.
"You guys, don't stay outside too long."
Naruto quickly said, "No way!"
After Neji left, he said, "Shikamaru said that if we want to connect the memories in there, it seems that we have to connect them together..."
Naruto's tone was somewhat expectant, yet somewhat depressed: "I want to go down with you hand in hand."
