Am I Your Dad? Do You Believe Me?
The sudden sound shattered the deathly silence of the battlefield.
The crowd, who were still reeling from the aftermath of Kaguya's sealing and the end of the war, all looked up at the sky with alarm.
Even the Sage of Six Paths frowned deeply, his gaze fixed like lightning on the twisted and sinking spatial rift deep in the sky.
Bang
Senju Hashirama was blasted away by an unnamed force and embedded directly into the roots of the still-existing God Tree.
The next second--
Uchiha Yoru, stepping through the air.
He was clad in a black robe, his long hair as black as ink, fluttering in the wind high in the sky, as if the night itself were pouring down; he was like a god who tore reality and fantasy apart, slowly looking down over this battlefield filled with the smoke of gunpowder.
He slowly opened his eyes.
Nine star wheels silently rotated in his pupils, like nine black holes swallowing everything. At the center, a silver-blue Celestial God Pattern bloomed, its flowing lines resembling an inverted galaxy, like the origin of all things, mysterious and unpredictable, making one's heart tremble.
--Uchiha Yoru, descends.
He looked down at the group of ninjas, children of the Six Paths, and heroes who had experienced countless battles, a mocking smile slowly curving his lips.
"This kind of action-packed trope of saving the world and defeating the villains..."
He shook his head slightly, his tone indifferent yet tinged with sarcasm:
"I'm so tired of seeing this."
Boom--!
As the words fell, the space shattered like a mirror, and an irresistible gravitational force emanated from his palm, precisely locking onto a corner of the battlefield.
Uchiha Madara of complete collapse, froze for a moment, his soul seemingly nailed between reality and the underworld!
Uchiha Yoru's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said softly:
"You are not reconciled."
At that moment, he saw it--
Deep within Uchiha Madara's seemingly calm eyes, a barely perceptible flame of obsession lingered amidst the ruins, refusing to be extinguished.
"Bewitched, betrayed, and exploited by a lump of black mud, your lifelong obsession ultimately ends in someone else's game—is this the ending you deserve?"
"That's just too... ridiculous."
A "Six Paths Core", interwoven with silver and black, suddenly appeared in his palm Chakra fluctuations within it transcended the rules of the Six Paths, like a duet between the Grim Reaper and the Creator.
"Then—I'll give you a new script."
Thump!!!
A terrifying gravitational burst ripped apart the bond between Ban's soul and body, instantly pulling the remnant soul into Night's palm!
The next moment, the light particles scattered.
In the void, a completely new physical body takes shape through a spiral reconstruction of flesh and bones.
Uchiha Madara truly been resurrected!
The battlefield was deathly silent.
"This is impossible... He bypassed the laws of the Pure Land." The Sage of Six Paths' expression turned extremely grave. "Even I didn't sense any recall authority..."
"Who are you?!" Naruto roared.
"This power doesn't belong to the Ninja World ..." Sasuke's pupils contracted as Susanoo quietly materialized.
Uchiha Yoru merely glanced at the crowd indifferently and said softly:
"I am Uchiha Yoru."
"I came to take over this world."
The moment the words left his mouth, the ground flashed.
Swish!
Sasuke, Susanoo unleashed his Susanoo, soaring into the air like a black-winged war god, his long sword slashing straight at Uchiha Yoru!
"The Uchiha Clan? Impossible!"
"You're Madara's backup plan, aren't you!"
He said coldly, "I don't know where you come from, but you resurrected Uchiha Madara, so you are an enemy!"
But just as his blade was about to touch her—
Uchiha Yoru raised his eyes, giving her just one glance.
Buzz--
Space seemed to stand still.
Sasuke's Susanoo suddenly froze in mid-air, unable to advance even an inch further!
"It's not moving...?!" Sasuke's eyes widened in horror as he realized his Chakra had completely stopped.
Even their thinking is gradually slowing down!
"The space... even the soul is frozen..." The Sage of Six Paths exclaimed in horror.
"He didn't even lift a finger." Kakashi stared incredulously at the sky. "He sealed Sasuke down with just a glance..."
"What a joke..." Naruto gritted his teeth, his whole body tense.
Uchiha Yoru landed slowly, flicked his fingers, causing the space to tremble. Sasuke was gently flung aside like a puppet with its strings cut, landing awkwardly and tumbling.
He narrowed his eyes, his voice icy:
"You have become accustomed to the privileges of being 'chosen ones'."
But fate has more than one line.
He walked slowly toward the Sage of Six Paths, his expression neither sad nor happy.
"And I am—the creator of another destiny."
"Sasuke!" Naruto roared, rushing forward to catch Sasuke who had been thrown out of the air.
The latter was covered in cold sweat, his face was pale, and he couldn't stand up for a moment.
"... Don't go over there," Sasuke said through gritted teeth. "He... is not someone we can afford to mess with..."
Naruto slowly stood up, and nine Chakra tails behind him instantly unfurled. Sage Mode and Kurama Chakra merged perfectly, and amidst the flowing golden light, the Nine-Tails stood on the earth.
"I don't care who you are." Naruto's gaze was intense, his tone firm, his blue eyes reflecting the solitary black shadow high in the sky.
"This world is one we fought so hard to protect!"
No matter how strong or powerful you are, don't think you can make everyone bow down just by saying "I'm going to take over the world!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly leaped up, his fist carrying a violent vortex of Nine-Tails Chakra and Natural Energy, and slammed towards Uchiha Yoru!
This punch is enough to shake mountains and rivers!
--But Uchiha Yoru simply looked at him.
The next moment, a very faint ripple appeared in the void.
Thump!!
Before Naruto's fist even got close, it was as if it had crashed into an invisible curtain of sky, exploding with a "boom." The recoil swept out, sending him flying thousands of meters away, crashing heavily into several giant trees that filled the area, stirring up clouds of dust!
The entire audience was shocked.
"I can't even touch him..." Gaara murmured, his pupils shrinking sharply.
"That kind of Chakra... it's not like something a ninja should possess." Tsunade's voice was icy.
"I thought Kaguya was the end, but I never expected... this is just the beginning," the Fourth Raikage said through gritted teeth.
Amidst the smoke and dust, Naruto slowly rose, his face bearing several abrasions, yet he still clenched his fists and roared through gritted teeth:
"What exactly... do you want to do?!"
Uchiha Yoru looked down at him, his voice indifferent yet exceptionally clear, echoing throughout the entire battlefield:
"It's not what I want to do."
"You guys did a terrible job."
"This Ninja World deserves a new protagonist."
"--Now, it's my turn to write the script."
As these words, which sounded almost like a pronouncement, fell, the world seemed to suddenly sink.
The Sage of Six Paths finally spoke, his voice deep and resonant like an ancient bell:
"You... do not belong to this Ninja World."
"Your power has long transcended reincarnation and the Six Paths."
"Who... are you?"
Uchiha Yoru's eyes flickered, and he smiled indifferently.
"Didn't I already tell you your names?"
"What, do all you villains like to ask this question?"
He suddenly lowered his head, his gaze sweeping over everyone, a sarcastic smile playing on his lips:
"How about this then?"
"If I said—I'm your father, would you believe me?"
