Why Did Naruto Uzumaki Have to Die Like That?

"Nine-Tails? What's going on? Is Naruto really dead?"

For some reason, Minato Namikaze suddenly looked at the Fourth Hokage.

"Minato Namikaze, you're quite perceptive. I've also gained a new understanding of this world. The Naruto Uzumaki you remember accompanied me through many things. Think about it carefully now, can you still recall those times clearly? The world has changed."

Nine-Tails replied lazily that he also had memories of accompanying Naruto Uzumaki to the Ancient Kingdom of Roran to carry out the Dragon Vein mission.

However, that memory is becoming blurred because it is something that will not happen in the future.

This world is already riddled with holes and has been altered in many ways.

The Ōtsutsuki Clan has already wreaked havoc in this world several times, and each time, the timeline of this world has become even more chaotic.

The authority over time is shattered, which is why the timeline of the Hokage world is full of bugs. The Sage of Six Paths created a new great world precisely because he sensed that there was an even more powerful mission behind it.

Now that Uchiha Feng has attained that supreme position, the first thing he did was seal all abilities that allow him to travel through time, whether it was the Dragon Vein, the Ōtsutsuki Clan's special tools, or any other abilities.

This prevented the world from collapsing and ensured that Uchiha Feng's subsequent plans would not encounter major setbacks. To become a higher-ranking Supreme Kai, or even the Zeno, one must control the power of time, which requires constantly hunting down those who steal that power.

This includes the Sage of Six Paths, and all those who once existed on this planet.

"What on earth is going on!" Minato Namikaze clutched his head. He was only a unit of Chakra, and the mental exertion he had just used, along with the Sealing Jutsu he had just performed, had consumed a great deal of energy and was now on the verge of dissipating.

"That memory is gone!"

Minato Namikaze looked even more dejected. The only memory that might prove Naruto Uzumaki was alright had disappeared, and his face turned ashen.

"Ugh~"

Suddenly, the Uzumaki Menma opened its mouth wide and spat out a spirit, followed by another spirit.

Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, who were initially feeling guilty, were drawn to the two spirits, because these two spirits were their own.

The Fusion spirit and body made the previously somewhat ethereal body clear and solid.

"When? Was it the person who summoned me to this world?" Uzumaki Menma rubbed his neck, finally recalling what exactly happened when he stole the Scroll of Seals.

New memories kept being injected into his mind, his final fate.

In the end, their world of Infinite Tsukuyomi will be transferred to the Great World of the Sage of Six Paths because of Naruto Uzumaki and Uchiha Sasuke's Child Seal, and they will become citizens of that world.

At that time, the Sage of Six Paths will obtain a world that no other Ōtsutsuki Clan have ever touched. He will then use that world as his base to launch a counterattack and become the true Ōtsutsuki God.

"Father, Mother, please allow me to call you that. It seems Naruto Uzumaki is not dead yet." Uzumaki Menma smiled bitterly. Now he realized that whether in that world or this world, he was just someone else's puppet.

Now is the time to prove their worth, and he also wants to see his parents.

"What? In my memory, it was clearly swallowed up!" Kushina Uzumaki looked at Uzumaki Menma excitedly. He was always straightforward with his child.

If only there were a real turning point!

"I've never understood what this mark is. I have no way to activate its power. Now it seems that I'm just a vessel, a tool for you to save Naruto Uzumaki. This mark contains Naruto Uzumaki's spirit. I sensed it just now!"

Uzumaki Menma somewhat helpless, but he didn't want to hurt his parents in this world.

He also wanted to see what parents in this world would choose.

He now has a slight understanding of the intentions of the person behind this; it seems they are restricting Naruto Uzumaki's development.

He even had a thought: if Ashura devoured the real Naruto Uzumaki, then Naruto Uzumaki left in the end.

The person behind it all is even protecting Ashura.

This puzzled him even more.

"What?"

Kushina Uzumaki and Minato Namikaze cried out simultaneously, their voices filled with surprise and conflict.

If what Uzumaki Menma said is true, what should they do?

From the moment their souls were Uzumaki Menma, they knew they were caught in a great net, and their son was the bait; they had no other choice.

"Before that, we need to deal with him!"

A look of surprise slipped across Uzumaki Menma's face. He had originally thought that the parents of this world would kill him without hesitation and then save Naruto Uzumaki.

Seeing even a hint of their hesitation was enough!

The three of them looked at Ashura; this was their true enemy.

"My reincarnation didn't die? No wonder the soul I absorbed always felt somewhat fake; someone tampered with it!"

The information exchanged by the group also reached Ashura's ears.

Some of his questions were answered.

"This time, Father's enemy is far more powerful than I imagined." Within his consciousness space, Ashura had a new thought.

This was exactly the result Uchiha Feng wanted. He was very wary of Naruto Uzumaki in the original story, which is why he created this chaotic scene.

He needed to curb Naruto Uzumaki's growth; otherwise, who knows what kind of power such verbal attacks would have.
