A Great Man's End, a Hero's Entrance! (Sage Naruto Makes an Explosive Entrance, Bearing Everyone's Hopes
[Kirigakure Anbu: "Holy shit!!"]
[Neji Hyuga: "That attack... the power of a god?"]
[Gaara: "That's terrifying..."]
[Boruto Uzumaki: "I finally know why the village was built in a crater..."]
[Sarada Uchiha: "...Why wasn't this scene in the textbooks?"]
[Akimichi Chōchō: "Seriously, that's horrifying..."]
[Shikadai Nara: "What kind of era are we living in...?"]
[Hashirama Senju: "Someone save Konoha!!"]
[Ōnoki: "It can't be saved, it can't be saved. The enemy is too powerful..."]
[Mizukage Mei Terumi: "Naruto was at Mount Myōboku. That information... Danzo must have leaked it, right?"]
[Shimura Danzō: "????"]
The footage continued.
Coughing, Sakura struggled weakly out of the rubble.
Everywhere she looked was a scene of devastation.
Dead and injured villagers lay everywhere.
Children's cries rose and fell.
The wounded howled in pain, and smoke and fire raged all around...
"Wh-what is this...?"
Sakura's pupils contracted sharply, and her face went paper-white.
She was filled with despair.
The enemy's power was beyond anything she could have imagined.
It completely overturned her understanding of ninjas!
Could someone who could do this really still be human?
"Why did it come to this...?"
Tears streamed from Sakura's eyes, and her heart was filled with despair.
"Naruto, hurry back..."
Sakura gripped the ground tightly with both hands and cried out in despair.
"Naruto, please!!"
"Bang!"
A towering column of smoke suddenly rose into the sky above Konoha.
It stood hundreds of meters high!
When the people of Konoha saw it,
a glimmer of hope kindled in their hearts.
Without a doubt,
a hero was about to appear, bringing hope with him...
Meanwhile,
music began to play in the footage.
It was the sound of opera music playing in fits and starts.
Naruto wore a red cloak, with a giant scroll on his back.
The camera kept cutting between shots.
Orange eyeshadow appeared around Naruto's eyes.
He stood atop Gamatatsu's head.
The camera gradually pulled back.
Gamabunta, Gamahiro, and Gamaken—
three giant toads, each a full fifty meters tall, were watching their surroundings warily!
[Hashirama Senju: "Damn, what a cool entrance!!!"]
[Tobirama Senju: "Kid, your name's Naruto, right?"]
[Naruto Uzumaki: "Huh? What is it, Uncle Second...?"]
[Tobirama Senju: "The village doesn't have much top-tier fighting power right now. You know what I mean...?"]
[Hanzo of the Salamander: "Bearing everyone's hopes, I can't afford to lose this match...?"]
[Fourth Kazekage Rasa: "Holy shit, the way you put it sounds so cool!!!"]
[Pain: "Hmph, another one come to die?"]
[Deidara: "The boss is already this strong. How could this Naruto possibly beat him, hmm!"]
[Hidan: "Tch, if you ask me, he's just bluffing!"]
[Sage Fukasaku: "Will he win?"]
[Sage Shima: "He'll definitely win. You have to believe in Naruto!"]
The footage continued.
The camera suddenly cut away.
The footage featured the Naruto theme song.
("The World That Was Transparent". I recommend watching this part of the original video for an even better experience (ᐡっ ̫ •̥⸝⸝ᐡ))
This video was completely different from the previous footage.
In the Pure Land,
Jiraiya sat on a sofa, absorbed in writing a novel.
As he put pen to paper, his eyes were full of smiles.
The camera cut away.
Naruto looked at the novel Jiraiya had written, his gaze gradually growing resolute.
The camera cut again,
returning to Nagato's childhood.
Nagato's childhood was full of tragedy, and the viewers looked on with mixed emotions.
Only when Jiraiya appeared did he see new hope.
But
that hope was as fleeting as a night-blooming flower. It vanished as quickly as it had come!
Afterward,
the Akatsuki was founded, and the Six Paths of Pain slowly descended from high in the sky.
Meanwhile,
the scene in Konoha replayed as it had in the earlier footage, the village beginning to collapse violently.
As the rhythmic melody played, despair settled over everyone...
Suddenly,
a flash of white light appeared.
"Koete!!"
Naruto plunged down from high in the sky, his eyes fixed on Pain in the distance.
The screen instantly went black.
A line of small text appeared in the middle:
"A great man's end, a hero's entrance!"
"I will carry on my master's will!!"
[Fourth Kazekage Rasa: "Damn, those two even have their own music for their fight..."]
[Ōnoki: "Will this video cover me later?"]
[Fourth Raikage A: "I don't know why, but I'm suddenly fired up..."]
[Might Guy: "Hahaha, this is youth, Rock Lee!!!"]
[Rock Lee: "Guy-sensei!!!"]
[Pain: "Hmph, before a god, any unnecessary action is reckless!"]
[Jiraiya: "Will I die at Nagato's hands someday...? Naruto, without a doubt, you're the Child of Prophecy!"]
[Naruto Uzumaki: "Yeah, I'll carry on your will, Master!"]
The footage continued.
Pain plunged down from high in the sky.
The smoke around them had yet to clear...
Naruto looked at everything around him, his eyes full of confusion.
"Where's the enemy?" Gamabunta's eyes burned with anger.
"What's going on? Why didn't you summon us to Konoha?"
Sage Fukasaku looked curiously at Granny Shima.
"This is Konoha!"
As soon as she spoke,
everyone froze.
"You call these ruins Konoha?"
"Take a good look around!"
The smoke gradually cleared.
Naruto stared at Hokage Rock in the distance, his brows tightly furrowed.
Just like that, Konoha had been razed to the ground by the enemy's attack...
Naruto stood frozen, his eyes filled with anger.
That enemy had killed Jiraiya-sensei...
The camera cut away.
Tsunade walked out of the rubble.
Looking at the scene in the distance, she blamed herself.
To protect the people of the village from Pain,
she had used up a great deal of chakra...
Tsunade was very weak now...
Tsunade mustered the last of her strength, intending to confront Pain.
Pain slowly emerged from the smoke, his gaze contemptuous.
Naruto met Pain's gaze,
and their auras began to clash!
"You've saved me the time of looking for you..." Pain said coldly.
In the distance,
the other five Paths of Pain also began to regain consciousness.
Without another word, they decided to return to the main body.
"Summoning Technique!"
The Animal Path formed hand seals in the air.
Soon,
the five Paths of Pain appeared before the Deva Path.
"It seems all six of them are here..."
Sage Fukasaku looked at the scene below, his brows tightly furrowed.
Tsunade rose weakly to her feet and looked at Pain in the distance.
"I am the Fifth Hokage. You've trampled on our predecessors' treasures and dreams, and I will never forgive you!"
"Here and now, as Hokage, I'll settle this with you!"
"It seems you understand pain a little now, but I don't have time for you..."
"The one I'm looking for is..." As Pain spoke,
the Asura Path vanished from where he stood and charged at Tsunade.
And in the very next second...
Bang!!!
Naruto, a Rasengan in his hand,
dropped from the sky and smashed the Asura Path to pieces!
"The one you're looking for... is me, right?" Naruto's eyes burned with anger.
Everyone froze!
Holy shit, he was that strong?
The camera cut away.
Two ghostly figures appeared behind Naruto.
One was the Fourth, Minato Namikaze, and the other was Jiraiya...
"To deal with these guys, there's no need for Konoha's Hokage to lift a finger.
Granny, step aside and take your time drinking tea..."
Naruto glared angrily at Pain in the distance.
[Mizukage Mei Terumi: "He's so fast!!!"]
[Neji Hyuga: "I couldn't react at all... Is Naruto really that strong in the future?"]
[Sasuke Uchiha: "Damn it, even Naruto has gotten this strong..."]
