Tactics for Dealing with Urashiki

Sasuke returned after three days of wandering around. Hinata, curious about Sasuke's purpose, couldn't help but ask, "Sasuke! What did you say to your counterpart in this timeline?"

Sasuke stated directly, "It's about Itachi..."

At this point, Sasuke looked at Hinata and said calmly, "Hinata! I hope you can help with Itachi's matter."

"Oh, no problem!"

Hinata made an 'OK' sign and patted her chest, assuring everyone, "Leave Itachi to me!"

Hinata didn't really want to get involved in Itachi's affairs. After all, it was Itachi's own choice, and what Itachi wanted to do had nothing to do with Hinata.

However, since Sasuke, Hinata had no reason to refuse.

Sasuke nodded slightly and continued, "Besides Itachi's matter, you also need to take care of Sasuke's eyes."

"I awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan because I witnessed Itachi's death and learned the truth about him. If I hadn't had that experience in this timeline, I can't guarantee I could have awakened the Mangekyo!"

After a pause, Sasuke suddenly asked, "Hinata! You should also know something about Indra and Asura, right?"

Hinata nodded and said, "I've heard some of it!"

Sasuke said, "I am the reincarnation of Indra's Chakra, and with this power, the chances of me awakening my Sharingan should be very high... but just to be on the safe side, I'm entrusting this version of myself to you!"

Hinata scratched her head, looking somewhat troubled. "Let Sasuke open his eyes... This kind of thing isn't so easy to control. I need to plan it out carefully."

"Perhaps Black Zetsu has a solution!"

Sasuke nodded, finally feeling a little relieved.

At this point in time, there are still more than two years until the final battle between Sasuke and Itachi.

Although the future has changed, two years is already a very short time for Sasuke in this timeline to grow to the point where he can fight Itachi.

Two years later, Hinata possesses the power to change all of this.

Himawari suddenly asked, "Judging by the time, Urashiki should arrive in this timeline in a few days, right?"

"Kindness!"

Sasuke said in a deep voice, "Hinata! Urashiki's target is you. It's best if we don't involve the people of Konoha in our battle, and don't let them see it..."

"If possible, you'd better find a reason to leave the village and move the battlefield to an uninhabited place."

Hinata's expression was serious as she nodded and said, "I understand!"

Urashiki may not be as powerful as Kaguya, but he is not someone that ordinary ninjas can deal with.

Even Nagato could easily sweep through Konoha, let alone a powerhouse like Urashiki Otsutsuki.

If a major battle were to break out between the two sides in Konoha, no number of ordinary ninjas would be enough to kill them all; on the contrary, Urashiki would be able to seize the opportunity to steal Chakra.

"But... what reason can I give to leave the village?"

Hinata was somewhat troubled.

Although Sasuke's Space-time ninjutsu could silently take Hinata away from Konoha, Hinata's sudden disappearance would definitely arouse suspicion.

Hinata still needs to stay in Konoha.

"Hey! Sasuke! Why don't you use Genjutsu to control Tsunade!"

Sasuke: "..."

Sasuke thought for a moment and said calmly, "Controlling the Hokage would be too troublesome if it were exposed. There are too many sensory ninjas in Konoha, and it would be easy for them to see through the Genjutsu used on the Hokage."

"Hinata! Didn't you film a movie recently?"

Hinata asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Sasuke explained, "Following the original trajectory, you would soon become famous throughout the Shinobi World, a world-class star, and known as the 'Byakugan Princess'."

"At that time, the world's richest people and nobles will be vying to be your favorites..."

"Instead of controlling the Hokage with Genjutsu, why not control a wealthy person to issue you specific tasks!"

Hinata's expression shifted several times before she hesitantly asked, "Then... would a designated S-rank mission be acceptable?"

Sasuke: "..."

"Please wait in the village for one more day, and I will take care of this matter immediately."

Sasuke came and went in a hurry, disappearing without a trace after only a few words.

Hinata had no interest in training and was preoccupied with dealing with Urashiki Otsutsuki.

Given Hinata's current strength, she can only play a minor role at best, barely managing to protect herself under Urashiki's command.

However, Urashiki's target was Hinata, so Hinata had to use herself as bait to lure Urashiki out.

Urashiki can use Space-time ninjutsu; if he doesn't come out himself, outsiders can't find him at all.

Although Sasuke and Himawari were full of confidence and believed they could definitely defeat Urashiki, Hinata, as a weakling who had not yet grown up, expressed little confidence.

Himawari leaned closer, puffing out her chest and assuring everyone, "Mommy, don't worry! I can definitely protect you!"

"If Urashiki ambushes Mom, Uncle Sasuke can use 'Amenotejikara' to switch Mom's and me in place. As long as we're careful of Urashiki's 'Time Freeze' technique, even if he uses Space-time ninjutsu, he definitely won't escape from Uncle Sasuke and me!"

"At that time, I will directly activate 'Li' to initiate Time Travel, take Urashiki with me and leave this time and space, so that my mother from that time and space can deal with him!"

Hinata nodded slightly, then frowned and said, "What I'm worried about is whether Urashiki will seize the Tailed Beasts from other ninja villages to heal his injuries first?"

"Didn't you say that Urashiki was already seriously injured?"

Himawari analyzed for a moment and explained, "Urashiki's injuries should heal quickly, and he doesn't know that I've eaten Kinshiki's Chakra Fruit, so there's a high probability that he'll attack Mom directly."

Hinata probably already knows the answer.

With Sasuke and Himawari protecting them, the journey is not very dangerous.

In that case, Hinata needs to figure out how to get the biggest benefit.

According to Himawari, she wanted to take Urashiki away from this world and let her counterpart from another timeline deal with Urashiki.

Hinata has long coveted the power of the God Tree, and Urashiki must have devoured the God Tree, which is why he possesses the power of the Rinnegan.

However, considering that neither Sasuke nor Himawari could convert Urashiki into Chakra Fruit, Hinata had to suppress her own thoughts for the time being.

Lying on the grass, Hinata stared blankly at the clouds in the sky.

If only I could unlock my Dōjutsu.

Himawari pulled Hinata up, urging her repeatedly, "Alright, Mom, let's get to training!"

That evening, Sasuke rushed back, bringing with him a message.

"Hinata! A wealthy merchant from the Land of Fire will be coming to Konoha tomorrow morning to issue a mission. The mission S-rank- rank, and the task is to escort him to the Land of Tea."

Hinata said somewhat shyly, "Thank you for your hard work, Sasuke!"

Sasuke continued, "After you leave Konoha, Himawari and I will come to meet you... and then we'll find a secluded place to wait for Urashiki to arrive."

"Hinata, let me briefly introduce Urashiki's abilities and battle plan to you. Listen carefully!"
