"As expected of me, haha."
A familiar, hearty, yet calm adult male voice with a smile came from the other side of the battlefield.
Everyone looked around and saw that the Seventh Generation Uzumaki Naruto, who had been suppressed by the Great Box Ten made with "Daikala Ten" before and was filled with black rods and could not move, was looking here at the moment.
And the huge Daikokuten on his body disappeared without knowing when.
It turned out to be Young Naruto. After solving Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, I noticed the situation here immediately.
He used the Black Eyes ability he had just acquired to successfully shrink the Daikokuten cube that was pressing on his adult self and then took it away.
Hearing the emotion of his adult self, Young Naruto also showed a smile on his face. He led the other three people to Seventh, stretched out his right hand, and introduced himself:
"Let me meet you, I am Naruto Uzumaki, from Another Timeline, and currently I am Sixth Hokage from Konoha."
Seventh Naruto Looking at Young Naruto, who was much younger than himself but already shouldering the heavy responsibility of Hokage, and so high-spirited, an indescribable and wonderful feeling surged in his heart.
He grinned, showing an infectious smile, raised his right hand, and held it tightly with Young Naruto's hand.
"It's amazing, you became Hokage at such a young age!"
Seventh admired sincerely. The opponent looked about the same age as Boruto, but he was already Hokage.
In my impression, the person in front of me from Another Timeline who became a movie star at about the same age is Gaara.
"I am Naruto Uzumaki, Seventh Hokage in this world. Nice to meet you."
The two of them clasped their palms and were very excited.
"Don't move, the wound is still bleeding."
A low and familiar voice interrupted.
The adult Sasuke Uchiha had already walked to Seventh, and he carefully began to insert the Black Rod that was still inserted into Seventh's body.
These Black Rod go deep into the texture, and every time one is pulled out, a small stream of blood is brought out, but Sasuke's technique is clean and neat, reducing the pain as much as possible.
Seventh grinned and endured, not forgetting to mutter, "Tap, tap, Sasuke..."
"Be patient, if you pull it out slowly, the pain will last longer."
After all the Black Rods on his body were pulled out, Seventh let out a long sigh of relief.
He moved his stiff and sore limbs and jumped twice. Although his face was still a little pale and his breath was a little unstable, the vitality that belonged to Naruto Uzumaki and seemed to never go out returned to his body again.
What everyone is facing now is not the tired Seventh, but Naruto Uzumaki who has used the time of being suppressed to adjust his condition.
It was such a wonderful feeling to see my younger self and be saved by him.
Seventh thought to himself, looking at Young Naruto with a little more emotion.
"Dad!"
At this moment, Boruto could no longer suppress the excitement and fear in his heart. Like a nestling returning to the nest, he swooped into Seventh's generous and warm embrace. He hugged his father's waist tightly with his hands and buried his face in his chest.
Just now, when Isshiki suddenly used "Daikokuten" to create "Daikokuten" and suppressed Seventh, Boruto really thought that his father was dying. The fear that his heart almost stopped beating was completely released at this moment.
"Haha, Boruto, I'm fine, I'm fine."
Seventh felt his son's body trembling slightly, and felt soft in his heart. He gently patted Boruto's back with his broad palm, and soothed his son's emotions in a gentle voice.
After a while, he gently pulled Boruto out of his arms and put it on the ground. Then as usual, he raised his big hand and lovingly rubbed Boruto's blond hair that was exactly the same as his own.
His eyes fell on Boruto's face, and his eyes became serious and deep. "Although your behavior of directly dragging Isshiki into this Alternate Dimension this time is indeed a bit reckless and risky."
He paused, his tone stern, but also hid pride and fear that could not be concealed.
"But I have clearly felt your determination and courage to protect the village and your companions. But next time, let dad do it."
Hearing his father's affirmation, Boruto's nose felt sore and his eyes felt a little hot, but he endured it and did not want to embarrass himself in front of Another Timeline's father and teacher.
He sniffed and retorted in a low voice, "It must be Dad and Mr. Sasuke who are doing this!
If you don't come, I might be able to think of a solution on my own..."
"Boruto."
The smile on Seventh's face slowly faded, and he interrupted Boruto's next words.
He put his hands on Boruto's shoulders and said firmly:
"Boruto, you have to remember."
"I am Seventh Hokage from Konoha.
Guarding the village and protecting every villager is my responsibility, and it is an oath that I must fulfill in the name of 'Hokage'."
"But at the same time, I am also your father.
Protecting you, protecting my son, and not letting you get hurt is a father's instinct, and it is a responsibility I will never shirk."
His eyes are like the deepest ocean, containing all the emotions of Boruto, and conveying a mountain of love and responsibility:
"No father would be willing to watch his son face unpredictable dangers alone.
So no matter how many times you come again, no matter where you encounter danger, Sasuke and I will definitely come. Because..."
Seventh's voice is slightly hoarse, but extremely sincere:
"You are my son."
Boruto stared blankly at his father's face close at hand. What was reflected in those blue eyes that were exactly the same as his own was his own figure and his heavy, unreserved fatherly love.
All the grievances, fears, and bravery turned into hot tears at this moment, and finally burst out of my eyes uncontrollably.
He nodded vigorously, choked with sobs, but could not speak. He just hugged his father tighter.
Naruto Uzumaki also hugged Boruto Uzumaki tightly.
At this moment, they are not the "devices" of Seventh and Momoshiki, but themselves.
Young Naruto and Adult Sasuke watched this scene quietly without speaking.
Compared to Young Naruto, Sasuke, who has become a father, can empathize more. Although he is not good at expressing, he still loves Sarada deeply.
That is his daughter, Sasuke's only living blood relative.
Otohime pulled Young Naruto's clothes and whispered:
"I can feel the wedge of Momoshiki in this Young Naruto. If nothing else happens, his end is already doomed."
Destined to become the instrument of Momoshiki's resurrection.
Young Naruto shook his head.
"I believe Boruto."
Otohime let out a light tut.
"Tsk, I really don't know where you get your confidence."
Young Naruto is very confident.
"Because... he is Boruto Uzumaki, and his legendary story has just begun."
