In front of Konoha Hospital.

Su Yu watched the girl approaching him.

The person he was looking for was Rin Nohara. Since she was a medical ninja, he figured she would be at Konoha Hospital.

The Mind's Eye of the Kagura detected Rin Nohara's chakra. She didn't keep him waiting long.

Rin noticed the Anbu Ninja and couldn't help feeling curious.

When she reached Su Yu's side,

he spoke.

"Do you want to save Uchiha Obito?"

Rin stopped at his words and looked at Su Yu in confusion.

The next second,

she watched the Three-Tomoe Sharingan spin and fell into a world of illusion.

Several scenes appeared one after another.

Uchiha Obito was pinned beneath a boulder and gave his Sharingan to Kakashi.

Kakashi killed her, and Uchiha Obito's eyes became the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Then, after Uchiha Obito attacked Kushina Uzumaki, he summoned the Nine-Tails. Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki gave their lives to seal it.

The illusion ended.

Rin's eyes were full of shock, along with a trace of pain.

She knew very well that Uchiha Obito loved her. She also had feelings for him, but they weren't as strong as his feelings for her.

"Awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan means suffering a tremendous blow. You matter more to Uchiha Obito than anyone else," Su Yu said calmly.

"Were those scenes from the future?" Rin asked, voicing her confusion.

"That's right. Those scenes are from the future. If you don't stop the future Obito, he'll face the entire Shinobi World alone and eventually die after being deceived by someone else." Su Yu nodded.

"I... I can change Obito's future starting now," Rin said hesitantly.

"Can you really change it? Would anyone believe you?"

Rin opened her mouth, but no words came out.

"If you leave now, Uchiha Obito will definitely train hard to find you. You could also leave him a letter telling him that you hope he'll become Hokage of Konoha." Su Yu spoke slowly.

"Would that really change Obito's future?" Rin stared at Su Yu.

"I don't know either. That's why I want to take you to the future and see what changes. If nothing changes, then you'll have to show yourself and bring him to his senses." Su Yu shook his head.

"What you're saying sounds a little unrealistic, but for some reason, I trust you," Rin said after a moment of silence.

Then she took out the notebook and pen she carried with her and wrote a note.

Su Yu watched as Rin ran back, tucked the note into a bandage, and handed it to the Konoha Ninja at the front desk.

She smiled at the ninja, then turned and left Konoha Hospital.

When she came back to Su Yu, the smile faded from her face.

Su Yu held out his hand.

Rin placed her small hand in his.

The Flying Thunder God Technique activated!

The two of them disappeared.

In the mountains behind Konoha,

Kushina Uzumaki was waiting for Su Yu.

Suddenly, she heard footsteps. She turned around and froze.

The newcomer was Rin Nohara, one of Minato Namikaze's subordinates.

"Rin, why are you—"

"Sorry, I can't tell you," Rin said seriously.

When it came to the future, the fewer people who knew, the better.

That was what Su Yu had told her on the way there.

Kushina looked at Rin, then at Su Yu. She wanted to ask whether Su Yu had tricked Rin, but didn't dare.

Holding Rin's small hand, Su Yu walked up to Kushina and held out his other hand.

Kushina slowly reached out and placed her hand in his.

Su Yu sensed the Flying Thunder God Kunai.

The long-distance Flying Thunder God Technique activated!

The three of them vanished in an instant.

The real world.

Beside the Sealing Jutsu array,

Su Yu picked up the Flying Thunder God Kunai and placed it inside the array.

To reach a parallel world, one had to pass through the Power of the Dragon Vein and touch the Sealing Jutsu array at the bottom with the chains of the Adamantine Sealing Chains to activate it.

While being pulled into the array, one also needed the Tailed Beast Cloak for protection. Almost no one could manage all that.

As for whether anyone from that world could come to the real world? Naturally, that was impossible.

Su Yu reinforced the seal. If anyone tried to move the Chakra Blade, he would sense it and appear there at once.

Without help from ninjas from this world, the Ancient Kingdom of Roran in the parallel world had no way to develop technology.

Without enough Power of the Dragon Vein gathered, no one could reach the Sealing Jutsu array at the bottom. That was another reason Su Yu had taken Kushina Uzumaki with him.

Without Kushina Uzumaki, a member of the Uzumaki Clan, to use the Adamantine Sealing Chains, there would be no risk.

"What is this place?" Kushina asked, looking around in confusion.

"Welcome to the future," Su Yu said.

"Th-the future?" Kushina couldn't quite process it.

"This is the world of Naruto more than ten years from now," Su Yu explained.

"What did you say?!" Kushina's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Don't resist. See your fate for yourself." Su Yu cast an illusion on Kushina.

Kushina saw the Three-Tomoe Sharingan and jumped in fright.

Then she froze.

Minato Namikaze became the Fourth Hokage.

She married Minato, and they had a child.

A mysterious man attacked her and released the Nine-Tails.

Minato gave his life alongside her to protect Konoha.

Then the scene changed, and their child had grown much older.

Because of the Nine-Tails Incident, most people in Konoha hated the boy.

The Third Hokage assigned Anbu to watch him.

The scene ended.

Kushina came out of the illusion, her face full of disbelief.

"If you and Minato get together, this is what will happen. This is your future.

Your child will grow up slowly, surrounded by loneliness and hatred. He'll have no parents by his side and no friends. Even the Third Hokage will care more about watching him than looking after him.

He's the Fourth Hokage's child, yet the Third Hokage won't explain anything. He'll let the villagers hate the boy.

You and the Fourth Hokage will give your lives to protect the village, yet everyone will treat your child like a monster.

That's Konoha. That's who the Third Hokage really is." Su Yu spoke each word deliberately.

"Do you have any proof?" Doubt crept into Kushina's eyes.

"Proof? No problem. I happen to be taking someone from the Uzumaki Clan to Konoha. Do you know why I'm sending her there?" Su Yu asked, watching Kushina.

Kushina's eyes trembled. She guessed the purpose of his plan.

"Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, thinks the current Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is difficult to control, so she wants to train a new Nine-Tails Jinchuriki," Su Yu said calmly.
