A/N: And I'm back! Thank you for all your support so far, especially to those that reached out to me and lent me their aid, it really means a lot to me. We'll just start off slow with a small chapter this week, I'm still trying to get back to the grind of typing out these chapters. I hope you all leave a heart and also a review!
A/N 2: Speaking of reviews, thank you to those that have given me criticism, I try to improve myself when I read them, so I hope I do manage to meet at least some of your expectations. I feel as though if I'm not able to make at least one of you smile when you read this story, I've kinda failed as a writer.

"What's going on?! His chakra is unbelievable! All his shadows just vanished! Something's about to happen!"
"Thanks captain obvious." Tsunade coughed.
"Hey!" Naruto whined.
The ground around the battlefield exploded with chakra so dense it was visible, flowing straight into Madara's body at once.
Madara's body started to swell and expand at a rapid rate, his body now fully covered by the black shadows.
"Hey! He's getting huge!"
"He's swelling because he can't stand the absorption of all that chakra! He's going to burst!" Sasuke yelled.
"But… he's shrinking right now…" Rin spoke softly.
"Look!" Jiraiya pointed to the eye opening within the black mess, horns and a mass of white hair started to form.
"Is that… a woman?"
A large woman with two long horns, a white robe and lilac pupils emerged from within where Madara formally was.
"Kaguya…" Sasuke grunted.
Naruto and Sasuke were grabbed by Kaguya's hair and flung backwards harshly, crashing into the wall behind them.
Kaguya floated towards them, "These two… they're Hagoromo's and Hamura's…" Her eyes started contrasting as veins bulged, "No… rather, they're Indra and Ashura."
"Her chakra, it's far greater than that of Madara's." Jiraiya gasped, "I can't believe such a person even existed."
"Man, Kakashi, lemme just say you're seriously brave for not pissing your pants right about now!" Obito laughed.
"But look at Kaguya! She's so pretty…" Rin awed, "Her skin's flawless."
"What are your intentions?!" Kakashi asked.
"This place, this land is my precious nursery. I cannot let it be damaged further."
"Let us stop fighting."
"I shall erase you all here."
The entire land shifted as everyone was transported to a different place, Naruto and Sasuke suddenly falling into a sea of lava.
"Holy crap!"
"What happened?!"
"Looks like she has the power to move people into different dimensions. Just like Kakashi's Kamui, but on a much larger and more efficient scale."
"That's insane, even using Kamui on a small scale takes up a huge amount of chakra from what we've seen." Jiraiya said, "She can use it so easily and so quickly?"
"Well... she is kind off a godlike being, so it would make sense that this is easy for her." Naruto answered.
Sasuke quickly summoned a large hawk, "Sasuke! Over there!"
The bird grabbed Naruto by the shoulders and flew above the molten magma, "What're you doing?! Help them, not me!"
"It seems like your son really has inherited your stubbornness." Mikoto laughed.
"For the worse it seems."
"Oh!" Minato beamed, "Good quick thinking, Kakashi."
"It looks precarious." Kakashi groaned. "Using a scroll to hang off the edge of a lava pool? Yeah, I'm sure that the paper from the scroll is fire-resistant or something."
"Kakashi tied one end of a scroll onto his kunai and knife and used it like a rope."
"Naruto, I'm going to be frank with you." Sasuke opened his palms, "This world will come to an end if either one of us is killed, only your six paths power of light and my six paths power of shadow, can seal away that being in front of us."
"If we're not able to, humankind will be exterminated. The two of us cannot afford to die, no matter what."
Sasuke sighed, "Kakashi and Sakura, just happened to be near you when the infinite Tsukuyomi was launched, that's all."
"Heartless prick." Kushina whispered, Minato nudged her softly.
"Don't be rude." Though, he was clenching his fists. "He's just a kid, he should be just as stressed as the others are."
Kushina stuck out her tongue, making a mental note to give Sasuke a lemon slice when he'd be born in a few years.
"You understand what means, right?"
Obito swallowed. "Man, are all the Uchiha clan members all devoid of humor?" He laughed.
"Yeah, I get it…"
Kushina looked up, shocked.
"I know what you're saying, and that you're right. But… these are the times when your body just moves on its own, remember? Like on that bridge."
Naruto smirked, "But never mind, I know… that you get what I mean, Sasuke."
Flames caught onto Kakashi's scroll, burning it in half and sending them both spiraling down to the lava.
"Shoot!" Minato gasped, "Kakashi!"
"I knew it..." Kakashi facepalmed.
But before Kakashi could land in the lava, they were grabbed by a chakra construct from Naruto. "Good save."
"But…"
"You're flying?!" Tsunade asked.
"Well, it would only make sense, since Madara could levitate as well." Fugaku nodded.
"All chakra, belongs to me, and me alone." Kaguya stated grimly.
"Well, someone's selfish." Mikoto spit back.
"I shall reunify all chakra once more!" She flew forwards, blocking an incoming beast bomb from Naruto at point-blank range, the explosion rippling through the air and sending debris everywhere.
"Oh god…" Kushina pointed behind Naruto and Sasuke, where a tear in reality opened. "This is like that horror opera show we watched at the Konoha theatre."
Kaguya slowly crawled out.
"Anyone else getting serious Orochimaru vibes? Just me?" Jiraiya shivered.
Kaguya's hands shifted and turned them both to face her. Hands moving about their faces.
"Hey! Hands off my son!" Kushina and Mikoto both yelled out.
Looking at each other and laughing slightly.
Minato and Fugaku shared a look and shrugged.
"She's crying?" Rin asked.
"I… detest you two."
A sudden shiver passed through the audience.
"Hagoromo… Hamura… You are mine."
"You…" Naruto grunted, "You two alone, aren't the entirety of shinobi history!"
Naruto tore the Black Zetsu away from himself and Sasuke, stopping him from stealing their chakra further, "Plus! Mums are supposed to be happy about their kids leaving the nest!"
"Hell yeah! Teen rebellion!" Kushina cheered.
"We need to create an opening so the sealing technique can be launched, Naruto."
"I know! And the only that'll do that now, is that technique!"
"What? What technique?"
Naruto blushed as he embarrassedly said, "Y-yeah know, t-that technique."
A silent beat for a moment, before Jiraiya stood up, "Sexy saves the world?!"
Kushina bopped Naruto on the head. "Ow!"
Minato laughed nervously, hoping not to get caught in the crossfire.
"That technique?" Sasuke asked.
"Lend me your ear."
Naruto whispered to him, "Are you serious?!"
"We won't know until we try it." Naruto laughed, "I'm telling ya, I've been secretly practicing this technique even more than the Rasengan! It's worth giving a shot, no?!"
"You cannot be serious, no way my son would entertain such an idea." Fugaku snorted.
"If there's a chance it'll create an opening, I'm game. I'll get my left eye ready."
Mikoto burst out in laughter, clutching her sides and one arm clinging to Fukagu's sleeves.
"Let's do it!"
Naruto leapt forwards, multiple shadow clones bursting forth from the smoke. "Take this!"
"Oh, what technique is it?" Minato bounced excitedly.
"I hope it's something grand—." Kushina said, before her eyes shot open.
"Reverse Harem technique!"
A group of absurdly handsome men appeared in front of Kaguya, standing in the nude.
"I take it back! Sexy does save the world!" Kushina watched on as blood dripped out her nose, giving a thumbs-up.
"Kushina!" Minato said as he covered her eyes.
"I've been conned." Jiraiya cried out.
"You're using this technique on a god-like person…" Tsunade shook her head.
Taking the moment when Kaguya was stunned, Naruto punched her, sending her flying backwards.
"It worked?!" Tsunade fell back into her chair, on the verge of collapsing.
"This is the history of shinobi, ya fool!"
Naruto and Sasuke both reached their arms out towards Kaguya, an attempt to seal her away.
Kakashi's thoughts could be heard over the battle, 'The number one maverick! Who'd have thought Naruto's pervy techniques would save the world! Are you watching, master Jiraiya?!'
"You damn sure I am!" Jiraiya clenched his fists, taking out a pen and jotting down notes into his Make-Out Tactics draft.
But before the seal could take hold, Naruto and Sasuke were frozen in a chunk of ice with Kaguya.
Kaguya escaped the block of ice using her ability, shifting to just outside the ice.
Escaping from the ice using Sasuke's Amaterasu, "Thanks Sasuke! And sorry my pervy technique failed."
"Hmph," Sasuke looked up at the floating Kaguya, "It's not like I really expected it to work. We're doing it my way next, you better help."
A rift opened up behind Sasuke as he was pulled and thrown into a desert dimension, the rift closing behind him, stranding him.
"Sasuke!" Mikoto cried out.
"It seems he'll be out of commission for a while, thinking of a way to escape." Hiruzen commented, watching the screen intently.
The screen fizzled as it changed scene as Naruto looked about to be frozen solid.
"Looks like someone needs to chill out." Obito giggled, earning a smack from Rin.
"Not the time," She huffed, "And that was the lousiest pun you could've come up with."
"Could we be the only ones brought to this world?" Sakura asked.
"No… my real body's here too. But I can't sense Sasuke." Naruto's clone spoke.
"Unh…" Obito groaned, one hand to his head, "Where is this…"
"Kakashi?" Obito spoke weakly, "I thought, I died…"
"I healed you."
Obito nodded, "What happened to Madara? Did you take him down?"
Naruto nodded, and Kakashi steeled himself.
"If we don't take down this Kaguya, our world's done for anyways. We few who are left have to try and keep fighting."
"We've already prepared ourselves, haven't we?"
"We're all ready to die."
Obito swallowed dry saliva.
"I admire your resolve, Hatake." Fugaku gave his thoughts.
"But the situation looks bad," Kakashi sighed, "We're down one, and Naruto looks like he's having a hard time. I don't even have my Sharingan anymore."
"We can't get to where you are as well." Minato commented. "Not that I would be much help, seeing as I don't have any arms." He laughed.
"You said you suddenly stopped sensing Sasuke?" Obito asked.
"Yeah."
"I suspect he was taken to another dimension." Obito concurred. "She emerged from a different time-space, it's an ability similar to my ocular power."
"If I resonate my Kamui the next moment she connects, and opens a portal to another time-space, I'm positive I can enter it."
"And if Sasuke is in there, I can bring him back to his dimension." Obito glanced up, "However, I'll need an enormous chakra to do it, since it's not my time-space. If my chakra run out while I'm in there, I'm done for."
"That's too dangerous!" Minato said, looking at Obito.
"It's the only way I can redeem myself." Obito sighed, "I-I don't want to be the villain anymore."
Rin put a hand on his, smiling.
"Would it still be inadequate with my hundred healings chakra?" Sakura asked.
"That would give me the bare minimum, both of you come with me." Obito looked back at Sakura, "We don't even know if Sasuke is inside that time-space, but we'll start by entering her lair, I swear to find Sasuke and deliver him to your real body."
"I'm Kakashi's friend, and a student of sensei." Obito steeled himself as he looked at the screen, "I want to walk in front of them and die for them."
"Obito…"
"Naruto and… Sakura, keep a hand on me, so we can teleport elsewhere at any moment."
Kaguya started flying towards Naruto, who was pretending to be trapped in the ice, "This is my time-space! You are powerless here!"
"Is that one of the tailed beasts?" Hiruzen asked.
"That's right, it's Kokuo, the five tails."
Steam shot out from Naruto, "Unparalleled strength!", destroying the ice restraints, using Kurama's chakra, Naruto created hundreds of clones. "Right now, this place is my time-space!"
"Naruto ultimate barrage!" The clones started whaling on Kaguya, punches and kicks were thrown in quick succession.
Kaguya escaped into her root time-space, Naruto and a small handful of clones entering after her.
"Where is this new dimension?"
"I'm pretty sure this is the root time space, a small pocket in between the five dimensions she cycles through." Naruto answered.
She held up a hand, "Murderous bone ash!"
A splinter of ash shot from her hands and appeared behind Naruto, barely dodging it. But another was shot into his stomach, not long after, Naruto's body started to crumble and turn to dust.
"No! No!" Kushina yelled. "He can't be dead! He's right here!"
She held Naruto in a deathly tight bear hug.
"I-It was a clone…" Naruto managed to gasp out. "C-can't breathe..."
"Don't scare me like that!" Kushina continued her hug despite Naruto's protests.
"Thanks to Naruto, we were able to successfully hide inside my time-space. But he's gone, even as a clone. You're the only one I can rely on, Sakura." Obito said as they landed.
Sakura put her hands onto Obito's shoulders, the hundred sealings travelling across his body, "I'll give you everything!"
Blood leaked out of Obito's eyes as a window to other dimensions opened, "What an incredibly vast time space!"
"To be able to connect so many dimensions at once, Kaguya is insanely powerful." Jiraiya mentioned.
A dimension with lava appeared, "Isn't that, where we were before?"
"I don't sense Sasuke in there." Obito grunted as his eyes throbbed painfully.
"Are you alright?!"
"Next…"Obito pushed through the pain and splitting headache behind his eyes as another rift opened and connected to another dimension.
"Why're you pushing yourself so far, idiot?" Kakashi asked.
"I was living my whole life with a lie, this time, I'm doing everything… mask off!" Obito's heart thumped determinedly.
