Son Goku's Disciple Naruto

Chapter 194 - 194

"Witness the true power of the Uchiha."

"Susanoo!"

This wasn't a skeletal structure a few meters tall, nor a half-formed skeleton dozens of meters high. It was the Complete Susanoo, towering over a hundred meters.

In this world, the three tomoe in Sasuke's eyes weren't ordinary, he had inheritated good chunk of Indra's chakra leading to evolution of his sharingan.

Itachi's Susanoo was less than an infant before it.

"Farewell, my foolish brother." With that, Sasuke controlled the Complete Susanoo and mercilessly swung its blade toward Itachi and the other Konoha ninja.

One slash. Just one slash. The earth was torn as if split in two. Itachi and the Konoha ninja were obliterated, leaving not even a trace.

At that moment, another man clad in a black cloak appeared on the shoulder of the Complete Susanoo.

As if having expected his arrival, Sasuke spoke softly, "You're late."

"I was delayed acquiring this." The man pulled a blood-stained scroll from his chest, then put it back, simultaneously pushing back the hood on his head.

He had a face identical to the original Naruto's, but he looked more sinister and frenzied. The six whisker marks on his cheeks were thicker, and most importantly, his hair wasn't golden like the original Naruto's, but pure black.

Menma Uzumaki waved his arm, and nine bizarrely shaped animals, each wearing a mask, immediately appeared behind him.

'Nine Masked Beasts', an ancient technique.

"Hurry up, Menma," Sasuke said, a hint of impatience flashing across his face. "I'm tired."

"Understood." Menma's voice was grave. He slowly raised his right hand, and a black sphere instantly formed in his palm.

It was a highly compressed mass of chakra, Menma's proud creation.

"Great Spiraling Ring!"

Menma coldly looked down at Konoha below and gently tossed the 'Great Spiraling Ring' downwards.

As a giant mushroom cloud rose into the sky, the world fell silent.

Konoha was destroyed once again.

--**--**

Again... and again... and yet again... in another timeline, at the Uchiha clan's Naka Shrine.

A man whose face radiated complete confidence opened the door to the secret room beneath the shrine and walked down slowly.

This man was the legendary Madara Uchiha. He looked extremely young, roughly only in his twenties, wearing his iconic crimson armor.

Upon reaching the secret room, he went straight to a stone monument placed in the very center.

This stone monument was a treasure passed down through the Uchiha clan, said to record the ninjutsu used by the Sage of the Six Paths.

As the Sharingan in his eyes transformed, lines of small text appeared before Madara's vision.

The monument required ocular power to decipher, the higher the level of Sharingan, the more content one could read.

The Sharingan in Madara's eyes finally morphed into the pattern of the Mangekyo Sharingan.

Madara carefully read the monument's contents. After reading everything, he slowly closed his eyes, seemingly digesting the information he had obtained.

Then he opened his eyes, a flicker of confusion within them. He muttered, "Infinite Tsukuyomi?"

But this confusion was soon replaced by disdain. "Peace bought with false illusions? I, Madara Uchiha, scorn such methods."

"Moreover, someone has tampered with the Sage's stone tablet."

"Come out, you insignificant worm." Madara stamped his foot forcefully. From the point of impact, a powerful chakra wave shot straight into the depths of the earth.

Immediately, a black shadow shot out, trying to flee.

"Hmph. Such petty tricks, you think you can show off before me?"

Madara simply extended his right hand and made a grasping motion in the air. An suction force emanated from his palm. The black shadow hadn't gotten far before it was violently pulled back.

He gripped the creature's throat with one hand. "You're the one who guided me here all along."

"Even Hashirama is no match for me. Did you think this pathetic fusion of Yin-Yang Release would suffice?"

"Whatever your goal, for attempting to deceive me only path left for you is death."

Madara gave no chance for rebuttal. Dark blue flames rose from his right hand, and Black Zetsu let out agonized screams, his body rapidly shriveling. Madara clenched his fist tightly.

"Disappear!"

Black Zetsu, the will of Kaguya otsutsuki, an entity even Naruto and Sasuke empowered by the Sage of Six Paths could only seal but not kill, was instantly obliterated by Madara with a single move.

Naruto's shadow clone slowly opened his eyes. Instead of the ruins of Roran, a dense forest greeted him.

'Where am I? Did the crossing succeed?' The clone wasn't clear about his current situation. 'First, I need to confirm whether this is the Dragon Ball-verse or the Naruto-verse.'

'If it's Dragon Ball, especially the later arcs, I can just kill myself and return.'

Thinking this, the clone closed his eyes and began sensing his surroundings.

'Tch, my sensing isn't as strong as the original's. Have to use this clumsy method.' Within moments, the clone opened his eyes again as he looked around with uncertainty.

'The energy around is so weak... and I sense chakra. It must still be the Naruto-verse.'

'The numbers are huge, very dense... Is there a ninja war going on nearby?'

'The First War? The Second? The Third? It can't be the Fourth, can it?' The clone headed toward the sources of chakra. He suppressed his presence to the absolute minimum to avoid being detected by sensor ninja, moving forward using only pure physical strength.

Even so, his speed was incredibly fast.

At the same time, deep within the forest, a group of Kirigakure ninja wearing special masks were chasing a young girl.

No, "chasing" wasn't quite right. It was more like cats toying with a mouse, deliberately maintaining a specific distance, consciously herding the girl in a chosen direction.

As rain fell from the sky, Rin Nohara's heart grew heavy.

A single mistake had led to her capture by the Kirigakure ninja. Instead of killing her immediately, they had sealed the Three-Tails inside her. But the seal was incomplete. Not only could he be manipulated at any time, but a cursed seal had also been placed over her heart.

She knew their goal: to force her return to the Konoha ninja ranks. The moment she reached Konoha, the Three-Tails would go on a rampage.

That moment would also be Kirigakure's signal to launch a full assault on the village.

Trapped by the cursed seal, she couldn't even control her own body, let alone end her own life. All she could do was watch helplessly as she drew closer and closer to Konoha.

'God, please... someone, anyone, stop me before I reach Konoha.'

Just as Rin prayed, a familiar figure came into view. 'It's Kakashi!'

Rin thought meeting Kakashi here was fate's doing. Little did she know it was all part of an old man's scheme, a man lurking in the shadows, already halfway into his grave.

Just as she spotted Kakashi, another boy deeply connected to her also stepped into the forest.
