Chapter 34 - The Future Sasuke and Boruto?

The next morning—

After fully assimilating the power he had gained the night before, Nagi rose early to train, adjusting himself to his enhanced strength.

Once breakfast was finished, he headed to the Ninja Academy with Naruto.

Although Naruto and the others had already been assigned to their teams, the Third Hokage decided—out of caution—to keep them at the Academy a while longer, waiting to see what the mysterious sky screen would reveal next.

As soon as the two entered the classroom, they noticed all their classmates staring straight at them.

Naruto was about to say something—

When the sky screen suddenly lit up again.

[Little V: Good morning, everyone of the Shinobi World! Little V can't wait to see your reactions! Without further ado—let's begin!]

The white screen glowed.

A parallel world began to play.

After the Konoha Crush ended, Jiraiya took Naruto on a journey to find Tsunade.

Then—

Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki battled Kakashi and the others.

The clash between brothers.

Sasuke was completely overwhelmed.

The Legendary Sannin showdown.

The Land of Snow incident.

Sasuke's defection.

Naruto Uzumaki: "What?! Sasuke, you defected?! I won't allow it! Even if I have to break your legs—"

Sasuke Uchiha: "Shut up. That's another world's me.

And you, Itachi Uchiha! You dare step into Konoha again?! I'll never forgive you!"

Itachi Uchiha: "My foolish little brother… you are still so weak. Hate me. Detest me."

Sasuke Uchiha: "AAAH! I'll kill you!"

Mikoto Uchiha: "Sasuke… Itachi…"

FugaKū Uchiha: "…Sigh."

Onoki: "Leaving the Uchiha brothers aside… Tsunade becoming the Fifth Hokage? That's reasonable."

Jiraiya: "Hahaha! See, Tsunade? You're the Fifth Hokage!"

Tsunade: "Hmph. That's another world's me—not this one."

Orochimaru: "Heh heh… Careful you don't get proven wrong."

Tsunade: "We'll see."

Though she spoke dismissively, seeing that other-world Naruto fight desperately for his promise stirred something in her heart.

Perhaps… becoming Hokage wouldn't be such a bad thing.

Onoki narrowed his eyes.

"Akatsuki…"

He had noticed that Itachi and Kisame were members of that organization.

A (Fourth Raikage): "What?! Their target is the Tailed Beasts?! Then Killer B and Yugito are targets too?! Damn you, Akatsuki—come at us if you dare!"

Deidara: "Hmph, we—"

Sasori: "Shut up, Deidara."

Sasuke's defection.

Naruto and Sasuke's first battle at the Valley of the End.

Several scattered events followed—

Until suddenly—

A beam of white light tore across the sky.

Then—

An adult man wearing a black cloak, with black bangs covering his left eye—bearing a striking resemblance to Sasuke—

And a blond boy with spiky "pineapple-like" hair, dressed in black and resembling Naruto—

Fell from the sky and landed on the ground.

Mikoto Uchiha: "Hm? Why does that man look so much like Sasuke?"

FugaKū Uchiha: "Indeed. I don't recall such a relative."

Kūshina Uzumaki: "Minato! Doesn't that boy look like Naruto?"

Minato Namikaze: "I think so too… but we don't have such relatives."

Jiraiya: "Could he be an illegitimate child?"

Kakashi Hatake: "Jiraiya-sama… please don't mix your novels with reality."

Jiraiya: "Sorry, sorry. Habit."

At Jiraiya's words—and seeing the similarities—countless dramatic plotlines instantly formed in everyone's minds.

Until—

The older Sasuke surveyed Konoha.

The device in their hands—the Time-Slip Turtle (Karasuki) (Karasuki)—informed them that they had arrived in Naruto's childhood era. They were forbidden from revealing their identities as people from the future, or severe consequences would follow.

Hiruzen Sarutobi: "What?! They're from the future?!"

Mikoto Uchiha: "So that truly is future Sasuke… He's grown up quite a bit. But why the cloak?"

 Kūshina Uzumaki: "Th-then… does that mean that child is Naruto's son?!"

Minato Namikaze: "Really? So I'll be a grandfather?"

Naruto Uzumaki: "Cough—Dad, Mom—that's another world, not ours!"

Even Naruto felt embarrassed.

Kūshina grinned mischievously.

"Alright, alright~ Naruto, do you have a girl you like?"

Naruto puffed up proudly.

"Of course! That would be Sa—ow! That hurts!"

Before Kūra could react, Karin stomped hard on Naruto's foot and whispered sternly:

"Naruto, don't talk nonsense.

And what if that child's mother isn't Kūra but someone else? Do you want to hurt her feelings?"

Naruto opened his mouth to protest—but seeing Karin's serious expression, he obediently shut it.

Onoki: "So even people from the future have appeared."

Shika Kū Nara: "With the sky screen already here, time travelers aren't that surprising."

MEidara Uchiha: "Impossible… How is this possible?!"

Hashirama Senju: "MEidara? What's wrong?"

Tobirama Senju: "Heh. He's panicking."

MEidara's thoughts were in turmoil.

If people from the future existed—

Did that mean the Eye of the Moon Plan had failed?

Obito and Black Zetsu also wore troubled expressions. Black Zetsu, in particular, had a bad feeling that his identity would eventually be exposed.

Sasuke and Boruto remained in Konoha under the guise of street performers.

Through their interactions with the Rookie Nine, viewers gradually learned—

Boruto was Hinata's son.

And Sasuke appeared to have an unusually close relationship with Kūra.

 Kūra Haruno: "Haha! Ino, Karin—see that? Sasuke and I clearly have a special relationship!"

Ino Yamanaka: "Don't get cocky. That's another world."

Karin Uzumaki: "Exactly! That's a different timeline!"

Kūra smirked.

"Just wait. In the future, Sasuke and I will definitely—hehehe."

She immediately walked up to Sasuke, smiling sweetly.

"Sasuke-Kūn, about that future—"

"Get lost."

Sasuke couldn't care less who his future partner was.

He only wanted to know—

How strong his future self had become.

Not everyone was indifferent about future partners.

Kūshina grinned brightly.

"So~ Which one is Hinata? Come chat with Auntie~"

Hinata Hyūga: "Um…Kūshina-san… I… th-that…"

Seeing that her future self married Naruto—and that their child was already that big—

Hinata's face turned crimson.

Then she fainted on the spot.

Kūshina laughed warmly.

"So cute! So it's the Hyūga girl who likes our Naruto! You've got excellent taste!"

Hiashi Hyūga coughed awkwardly.

"Fourth Hokage-sama's wife… that is another world…"

Minato smiled gently.

"I'm sure our Naruto will take good care of Hinata."

Kūshina nodded vigorously.

"Of course! Naruto, you'll take good care of Hinata, right?"

Naruto scratched his head nervously.

"Uh… Mom, I haven't really thought about Hinata like th—"

The entire class shouted in unison:

"SHUT UP!!!"

Naruto instantly straightened.

"Yes!"

Everyone thought the same thing—

At this point, everyone knows Hinata likes you.

Why are you the only one who doesn't?!
