For some reason, Naruto suddenly covered his arm with a look of pain.

Sasuke said with some concern: [Naruto?]

"Tick tock..."

Sasuke quickly turned his head to look at the source of the sound, but found nothing. When he looked at the swing again, Naruto was no longer there.

Sasuke looked towards the Hokage Rock again and murmured.

[Naruto? ]

He thought back to Itachi.

[Nisan, I'll see you soon. ]

Ninja World

"Naruto and Sasuke aren't really going to die once, are they?"

"Is this the world after death? Naruto and Sasuke both returned to Konoha after their death, so where will I go after I die?"

"So the ninja world didn't change much in the end. At most, the five major ninja villages had been united and had peace for a few decades. But after a few generations, the ninja world would be plunged into war again."

"Sasuke's decision was too hasty. Since the Rinnegan can help him find a way to immortality, why doesn't he wait until Naruto dies of old age before reforming the ninja world?"

"Anyway, this is the largest battle I have ever seen, and Naruto and Sasuke's taijutsu are also very exciting."

"Tick tock..."

【Finally back.】

Sasuke slowly opened his eyes and couldn't help but cry out in pain.

【it hurts! 】

Then he looked at the source of the pain, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink.

Naruto, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, whispered: [As you can see, you and I are the same. If we move, we will die from excessive bleeding.]

Sasuke asked: [Why... do you have to hinder me at all costs? ]

[I threw myself into the darkness and gained great power to cut off everything. Everyone has tried to break off all ties with me. But you... never thought of severing your bond with me.]

[Why do you want to get involved with me at the cost of doing this? ]

Naruto smiled: [You understand now, right? My body can't move, so I can speak very fluently...]

Sasuke said angrily: [Stop talking nonsense! Answer me now! ]

Naruto turned to look at him: [Because we are friends. ]

[I've heard this before. What does it mean to you?]

Naruto looked up at the night sky: [I can't really explain it. To be honest, I don't know either. But when I see you like that, carrying a heavy burden and feeling helpless, I don't know why, I feel pain... very painful... Although it's not unbearable, I can't ignore it.]

At this point, he turned to look at Sasuke and said with a smile: [But now my whole body hurts, there is nothing I can do. ]

Sasuke looked at Naruto like this with a complicated expression.

'Naruto, I know you used to stay alone. You were ostracized by the villagers just like me, the Uchiha survivor. You often did stupid things just to get scolded. Is this to connect with people?'

'When I first saw you like this, I thought you were boring, a weakling who only knew how to make trouble. But as I watched you being scolded, I couldn't take my eyes off you for some reason. I thought your weakness had infected me, and every time I saw you, I cared more about you.'

"Seeing you trying so hard to connect with others reminded me of my family, and for some reason I felt comforted by that, but at the same time I also thought it was cowardly."

"I devoted myself to training to escape from this cowardice, to avenge my brother, and to become stronger than him. Unexpectedly, I ended up in the same class as you, and I started to think about my family from time to time again."

"I was still clamoring to be the Hokage, and we were on a mission together. We both became stronger, and before I knew it, I had the idea of ​​fighting you."

"And I also saw the shadow of my family in Class 7."

"So, every time I see you in pain... yes, I also... I also feel pain."

'After understanding your pain, I finally regarded you as a companion. In contrast, your rapid growth made me increasingly unable to let go. Seeing you becoming stronger and stronger, I... on the contrary, I envy you because you have the strength that I don't have. You always walk in front of me, just like my brother used to. And today is also...'

In a dark space

Sasuke, who was alone, saw that more and more people were surrounding Naruto.

Starting from Team 7, to his companions of the same period, to the Konoha Ninjas, to the Ninjas of the Five Major Ninja Villages and even to the Kage, and finally he saw himself standing next to Naruto.

Sasuke's eyes slowly widened.

Then, he looked away embarrassedly.

[Really? In that case...let me take a look.]

Ninja World

"Tsk. Sasuke's shy little expression."

"If Sasuke were a girl, he would be very beautiful."

"Haha, if Sasuke was a girl, there would be no Sakura and Naruto's wife. It would be a story of a toad finally eating the swan meat."

"After this battle, Sasuke finally began to look directly into his own heart, and he changed a lot because of it."

"I wrote down Sasuke's thoughts on a piece of paper. When I see Naruto in the future, I will give it to him. Hehehehe..."

"Tick tock..."

Naruto looked around while lying down and asked: [Where is this place? Have we really reached heaven this time? ]

Sasuke said: [It seems that we slept until dawn and didn't die. 】

[Damn it! Your body still can't move. I want to beat you up again. This time I must beat you up and wake you up.]

Sasuke chuckled, and his laughter grew louder and louder.

Naruto turned to look at him and asked: [What are you laughing at? ]

[It's already like this, do you still want to fight? 】

[Of course! No matter how many times...]

Before Naruto could finish his words, he was interrupted by Sasuke.

[I admit it.]

[I... lost. ]

Naruto yelled at Sasuke in a very loud voice: [Idiot! There is no such thing as winning or losing in this battle! My best friend is not in a clear mind, and I just want to beat him up! The game I want is still to come! ]

【Hey, Naruto. 】

【ah? ! 】

【I recognize you. 】

Sasuke looked at the sky and continued: "If I die here, the long karma that the Six Paths Sage talked about will also end, right? It will also be a revolution. To cancel the Infinite Moon Reading, you can transplant my left eye to Kakashi after I die. I want to rely on myself and make a break for myself. 】

After hearing Sasuke's words, the ninja world was in an uproar.

"Want to give his six-magatama Samsara Eye to Kakashi? Is he Kakashi's biological student?"

"My heart is moved..."

"This... Anyone would be tempted, right? That's the Rinnegan with six magatama!"

"Naruto and Sasuke now can be killed by any ordinary person, right?"

"Don't think about it. Although Sasuke can't move, he may still have the power of his eyes to use Amaterasu. And the half of the Nine-Tails in Naruto's body may wake up at any time. Don't forget that when Naruto goes berserk, his wounds will heal automatically."

"Although Sasuke wanted to kill Kakashi, in terms of closeness, Kakashi must be one of the most important people in his heart."
