"Here it is..."
One- Sasuke landed atop a stone pillar, and was momentarily stunned by the unfamiliar surroundings.
Then something occurred to him, "Boruto!"
Just as he was about to move, a voice appeared behind the one- Sasuke, "Who is it, sir?"
The languid voice startled the one-armed Sasuke; it was... Kakashi's voice.
Immediately, dozens of figures appeared around them, firmly locking onto the one-armed Sasuke.
"Konoha... why is it so different?"
"Who are you?!"
Boruto's voice came from beside him, and the one- Sasuke turned his head to look, only to be stunned for a moment.
Boruto was seen being grabbed by a figure, and the appearance of that person caused Sasuke's pupils to shrink sharply.
"Nissan..."
"Judging from your appearance, you seem quite familiar with Konoha." Kakashi's figure closed in again, the short sword in his hand already pressed against the neck of the one-armed Sasuke.
"Hey! Kakashi!"
Boruto noticed Kakashi behind the one-armed Sasuke and exclaimed in surprise.
Just as Uchiha Itachi figuring out how to take this blond-haired kid away, two footsteps sounded behind him.
"Lord Hokage!"
Uchiha Itachi bowed slightly to Hagoromo.
"Yes, Itachi, let go."
Hagoromo chuckled lightly, gesturing for Itachi to release Boruto, and then crouched down to examine him closely.
The Child of the Prophecy of the next phase.
However, the world is clearly very different now. Why are Boruto and Sasuke, especially Sasuke, still only one-armed?
Even though Sasuke is now at the Six Paths level, not just anyone can cut off his arm.
Unless--
Parallel worlds, huh?
Hagoromo looked at Sasuke, raised his hand, and grabbed the one- Sasuke.
Upon seeing this, even Boruto clearly realized that this seemingly gentle young man was not simple in strength.
One-Armed Sasuke was the most shocked. Amenotejikara? No, it was a technique even more powerful than Amenotejikara.
"Alright, Kakashi, take the men back." Hagoromo said, gripping Sasuke's shoulder and Boruto.
"Yes, Fifth." Kakashi put away his lazy expression and said seriously.
"Itachi, go and tell Sasuke and Naruto to come here." Hagoromo glanced at Itachi and said, then disappeared with the one-armed Sasuke and Boruto.
"Wow--"
A panicked shout rang out in the Hokage's Office; Boruto was currently fidgeting frantically.
Then he realized something was wrong.
He opened his eyes and saw the young man who had brought him there looking at him calmly.
"Tell me, Boruto Uzumaki and Madara Uchiha Sasuke." Hagoromo looked at the two people in front of him. Before Naruto arrived, he needed to find out why they were here.
One- Sasuke's pupils contracted sharply again as he stared in disbelief at the figure before him in Hagoromo.
"Don't deny it, I know more than you do, and since we're already here, we'd better behave ourselves."
Hagoromo's gaze fell on Sasuke, his Chakra... clearly showing the loss of Chakra Six Paths Power.
She was like a bright light bulb in his presence, shining brightly.
One- Sasuke shuddered. How long had it been since he and Naruto ended the Fourth Shinobi World War? Apart from the Ōtsutsuki Clan, very few people had ever given him such a sense of pressure.
Moreover... he's even stronger than Urashiki Otsutsuki.
"Hey, uncle, are you the Fifth?" Boruto, looking at Hagoromo with a surprised expression.
He had just glanced at the desk, where a sign hung prominently that read "Fifth Hokage."
But isn't the Fifth Tsunade?
"Boruto!"
One-Armed Sasuke was truly angry this time and couldn't help but rebuke him.
The era Boruto lived in was too peaceful, which is why Boruto is like this. I won't blame him, but as a ninja, he doesn't even have the most basic vigilance, and that won't do.
Boruto was taken aback, then obediently lowered his head. This was the first time Sasuke had reprimanded him so sternly.
Hagoromo looked at Boruto, saying that everyone said Boruto wasn't even half as Naruto.
However... Boruto, who lived in a peaceful era, behaves in a way that is most consistent with the behavior of a twelve-year-old child in the next era.
Then came the mutation.
To be honest, the story and future of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations are actually more terrifying.
The enemies they faced were no longer classified as Chunin, Jonin, or Kage Level.
Kara, Momoshiki, Urashiki, Isshiki.
If Naruto embodied the Hokage, then Boruto embodies the true meaning of a ninja.
"Don't worry, at least you two won't be in any danger. On the contrary, what I'm more concerned about is..." Hagoromo looked at the two calmly, "How exactly did you come to this world?"
"Boruto Uzumaki, and Sasuke Uchiha."
The office fell silent instantly upon hearing this.
One-Armed Sasuke remained silent for a long while before speaking, "Before this, although I went a bit too far, I want to ask... who are you?"
"The Fifth Hokage, who ended the Fourth Shinobi World War, and defeated Otsutsuki Kaguya and Ōtsutsuki Isshiki."
Hagoromo chuckled softly and spoke slowly and deliberately.
One- Sasuke was wondering if there was something wrong with his ears. The first part was fine, but was the second part incorrect?
Otsutsuki Kaguya, is she someone who can be defeated?
And then there's Ōtsutsuki Isshiki —who is this guy?
"Master, did you call us?"
Naruto's voice rang out from outside the door, and the door was pushed open.
Naruto and Sasuke were taken aback when they entered, because there were two unfamiliar people standing there.
So strong--
The moment Naruto and Sasuke entered, the one-armed Sasuke was already shocked once again.
He's incredibly strong, so strong that even the one- Sasuke himself feels he has no chance of defeating him.
Moreover, his age should be about the same as when he and Naruto sealed Kaguya.
"Who is this kid? He looks familiar."
Naruto approached Boruto, looked at Boruto with suspicion, and spoke.
Sasuke's gaze, however, was fixed on the one- Sasuke.
The guy in front of him gave him the impression of being from the Uchiha Clan, but he had no idea that there was such a person in his Uchiha Clan.
This is the confidence of a clan leader.
"Who are you?" Sasuke asked, his expression displeased.
Could it be another Uchiha Clan Obito, like Obito, who left during the war?
A massive amount of dark purple Chakra locked onto the one-armed Sasuke and Boruto, as if Sasuke would immediately attack if anything went wrong.
Glug--
Boruto's throat bobbed. The feeling he got from Sasuke was that the slightest movement would kill him instantly, making him even more terrifying than Hagoromo.
At least, in his mind, Hagoromo was just an ordinary uncle.
