The experiences of the sealed space unfolded one by one before Ren as his eye power was revealed.

His memory was fragmented, like transitions in a movie, but Ren still managed to catch the most crucial information.

Asura's Chakra is becoming stronger and stronger in Naruto.

Especially the final action of opening his eyes; Ren didn't know what would happen when he opened his eyes, but it was clearly not a good thing.

This applies to both Naruto and Konoha.

Ren has a strong sense of self-control; his serious expression instantly switched to a confident, faint smile.

"Shisui, there were some minor troubles during this mission, but my eye power wasn't high enough at the time, so I could only try my best to bring back the information. Don't worry, it's nothing serious, I can handle it!"

Ren spoke with an air of certainty and unquestionable conviction, saying things he himself didn't believe, before speaking to Shisui.

"You've worked so hard this time, expending so much of your eye power. Shisui, are your eyes alright? Tell the truth!"

When faced with Ren's question, Shisui thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth.

"He's in okay condition, but his eyesight has deteriorated quite a bit, and things are a bit blurry."

Ren was speechless after hearing this. This is what they call being in good condition? Does it mean that as long as you're not blind and can still use Susanoo, you're in good condition?

"Let's go to the Experimental Building later and find Dou. He'll fix your eye problem."

"No problem!"

Shisui readily agreed, but then added...

"There's one more thing. Kushina Uzumaki wants to know what you discovered, Ren. Tell me, is it really a small problem?"

Then, Shisui told Ren everything about how he sealed Kushina.

After Shisui finished speaking, Ren revealed a very sincere expression.

"I understand. I'll handle it then. As for Shisui, it's really just a minor problem that can be solved anytime."

Shisui nodded upon hearing this.

"Then I'll leave it to you. I'll be going now."

"Okay, remember to go to the Experimental Building."

As Shisui left the office, Ren's smile vanished.

Ren was hesitant to draw any conclusions about Naruto's condition, so Ren arrived at the training ground ahead of schedule.

When Ren wasn't around, Sasuke Uchiha and Natsuri trained on their own.

At this moment, both of them stopped cultivating because a small golden statue was showing off in front of them.

After mocking Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto also expressed his own feelings to Natsuri, saying that "boss" was just a term he used when he was young and didn't know any better, and now Naruto didn't want to be a subordinate anymore.

If Natsuri agrees, Naruto promises he will protect Natsuri from now on.

Faced with Naruto's boasting, Sasuke Uchiha scoffed and called him an idiot, then thought to himself that he must quickly awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan and repay him tenfold.

Natsuri took action directly, not because Naruto didn't want to be his subordinate anymore. Knowing that Naruto's strength had greatly improved, she no longer cared about the joke from back then.

After several years of getting along, Natsuri had long regarded Naruto as an important partner. The reason Natsuri took action was that Naruto had become corrupted by Sasuke Uchiha and was no longer as cute as he used to be.

The fist, imbued with Chakra, struck Naruto squarely in the stomach.

"Stop being normal, Naruto!"

"Ah!"

Naruto let out a scream, followed by disbelief. Naruto already knew how strong the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode's defense was along the way.

But why does it still hurt so much when Boss Natsuri's fist hits me?

"I understand, Natsuri."

Naruto dispersed the Nine-Tails Chakra and returned to his original form.

Ren, observing from the sidelines, activated his Mangekyo Sharingan and witnessed everything.

Sasuke Uchiha remained the same; although Indra's Chakra was constantly intertwined with his Chakra, it remained just a single mass of Chakra.

On Naruto, Ren finally saw the exceptionally clear spirit behind him.

So, was this something that was sabotaged?

Indra and Asura have been fighting each other for a thousand years, Asura has almost never won, except for the previous one Hashirama Senju.

If it were a natural resurrection, it would be impossible for the Asuras to have resurrected while the Indras remained completely unresponsive.

As for who did it, there's no need to guess; it was definitely the Sage of Six Paths.

Ren had long been wary of the Sage of Six Paths and Otsutsuki Kaguya, but at this moment, the threat posed by the Sage of Six Paths to Ren increased dramatically.

Reflecting on the various abnormalities within himself, Ren realized that if he could interfere with Naruto, then interfering with himself wouldn't be a problem either.

The impact has always been very minor, but it is a very real phenomenon.

Especially considering that even Ren's memories were blurred in Naruto's sealed space, the intensity of the attack has clearly increased.

Ren pondered the reason, he naturally thought of Turtle Island.

If it were because of the Nine-Tails, it's impossible for him to be affected as well.

The peculiar space on Turtle Island was most likely left behind by the Sage of Six Paths.

Thinking of the Kinkaku and Ginkaku of Hidden Cloud Village, and all those piles of Six Paths Ninja Tools, it's clear that the Sage of Six Paths stayed in the Land of Lightning for quite some time.

After all, as Uchiha Clan who inherited the Sage's Eyes, all they had to pass down were a stone tablet and Gunbai.
