"Bang--"
Naruto Uzumaki delivered a direct headbutt that left Nagato completely dazed, cycling through his happiest, most carefree memories within his mind.
Huh? What's going on?
Sasuke, currently entangled with two Truth-Seeking Balls, froze. The moment he heard the dull thud, the previously hyper-aggressive Truth-Seeking Balls went completely still, entirely indistinguishable from lifeless objects.

It all sounded quite logical, but in reality, it was completely useless against Neji Hyuga, Gaara, Nagato, Obito, and Sasuke.
Because when it came to comparing tragedies in the first place, Naruto Uzumaki wasn't even guaranteed to win.
Which was
