"Mayu," Madara called his daughter. He has been searching for Mayumi since they arrived home. Madara and his family just got back from visiting the grave of Shodaime Hokage.

That was right, today, five years ago, Hashirama lost his life to save Hiko. His enemies have united and bid their time well. They were waiting for Madara to be immobilized and that moment was when he was pregnant with Mayumi. They took Hiko and keep him hostage. Hashirama went to save him. He was the strongest shinobi but he was still a human. His weakness was his son. The enemy knew this and took Hiko to lure him. Yet, they did it precisely to kill Hashirama. They were killed by him but apparently the enemy succeeded created a poison specifically for Hashirama after they took Hiko's DNA.

They knew Hashirama was able to heal himself without the need to make any seal. Their target was to make a poison to kill Hashirama. When they faced him, their weapons were full of this liquid. As soon as it touches Hahsirama's skin, it will be reacted. Of course, Hashirama was able to heal it. However, they repeatedly stab their weapons or touch Hashirama's skin with them. The more they did it, it didn't kill Hashirama but just for a second, it slowed the Shodaime down. And then, they attacked Hiko. Like any human being, as a parent, Shodaime's attention moved to Hiko and it was all the assassins waiting for. His care for his son was the weakness. Just for one second, his attention was distracted, it cost him his life and that was all it took for all those assassins to stab his heart with all their weapons. In that second, Shodaime knew he will die as he felt his chakra declining when he felt the poison spread, so with the remaining power he has, he killed all the assassins to protect Hiko. If Hashirama was a mere human, he will die the moment his heart was stabbed. But, being a descendant of Asura Otsustsuki, he still can move for one time before he exhales his last breath. He never said goodbye to his firstborn who was mourning his death along with his newly awaken mangekyou sharingan.

It has been 5 years since his husband died but it didn't make things easy for Madara. He almost died when he gave birth to Mayumi prematurely due to shock after he knew Hashirama has died. It was all thanks to Izuna and Tobirama's fast contemplation that Madara was saved by Mito. Mostly, because they knew from Menma's future that it will happen after the death of Hashirama. They couldn't prevent Hashirama's death because Menma never elaborated on how it happened in his history. The poison thing was invented only to kill Hashirama and was never distributed before.

"Mayu," Madara called again. He felt his daughter's chakra faintly. The little girl hasn't changed her clothes and Madara brought the new ones in his hand. His right eye, the one he received from Izuna's, glanced at the living room but his vision changed suddenly.

"Hm?"

He saw familiar figures flash in his sight. Indra Otsutsuki and a teenager Sasuke side by side. Sasuke has two Rinnegans! Madara blinked. It changed again. Indra was there but Sasuke looked older. Taller and only have one Rinnegan. Madara felt uneasiness. His eyes felt burned. Madara shuts down his eyes. It was painful. He thought it was a delusion when he saw another vision of Indra opening his palm and showing Madara a crystal necklace. Indra mouthed silently, "Touched the necklace. Your necklace."

Blinked.

What?

Madara opened his eyes to find he was in his living room without no one. He just saw Indra talking mutely to him. Was it just his imagination? Touched the crystal necklace? Madara took it off when he changed his clothes after arrived at home. His necklace was in—

"Daddy! Daddy!" Mayumi, his 5-year-old daughter head to him. Her straight long hair with hime cut framed her chubby face. She inherited Hashirama's face and straight hair, making her look alike the feminine version of Shodaime Hokage. The girl wiggled the necklace in her hand. "Your necklace is glowing! There is a face there!"

Madara was kneeling as Mayumi gave him the necklace. The moment his hand touched it, transparent figures were coming out of the crystals like a hologram appearance. Madara saw the same thing before. When Menma's pendant showed them Adult Naruto years ago. Except, at that time, only Adult Naruto was in sight because of the connection of the pendant. Now, he saw several people. Not only just one.

"Indra," Madara surprised. Behind Indra, there were two Narutos and two Sasukes of different age. Asura was beside taller Naruto.

"Madara!" Taller Naruto beamed. Instinctively, Madara knew this Naruto was the one he met years ago. He smiled faintly at him, "Naruto."

"Wow, you can see me? I thought you are going to be blind after using Izanagi for my twins," Naruto wondered. Before Madara could reply, Mayumi asked him, "Daddy, were you blind?"

"Oh, who is that girl?" Naruto asked, eyes on Mayumi who stood beside Madara instantly.

"She is my daughter. Mayumi Uchiha," he introduced her. Madara turned his head at her, "Yeah, I was blind for a short time." He explained back to Naruto, "Izuna gave me one of his eyes so we have one each. Hashirama did the transplantation after you return to your future."

"Ah," Naruto nodded in understanding. He still felt touched Madara sacrificed his sight for Little Menma and Suma and was slightly happy Madara did not totally blind. He should know Izuna will never let his big brother suffer. He loved him too much for that. Except for Narutoru, the others realized if Mayumi was there, it meant Hashirama was dead. Madara told his daughter, "Mayu, can you please go to Uncle Izuna's house? Tell him that I need him and Uncle Tobirama to be in here."

Mayumi nodded and went out. After he was alone, he faced the images from his crystal necklace. "Long time no see, Sasuke, Naruto," he glanced at the original Sasuke and Naruto. "Since there is Indra and Asura, I assume you are traveling to another timeline again?" He stared at the younger version of SasuNaru and then the Otsutsuki brothers.

Sasuke confirmed, "We are in Menma's future. The one who comes to your era." Menma come closer to sit beside Sasuke so he could get in the picture. Seemed like Madara haven't seen him. Menma bowed politely at him, "Nice to see you again, Madara-sama."

"You've grown up, Menma," Madara noticed. "How long it has been passed in your timeline?"

"It has been 5 years since I came back from your era, Madara-sama," said Menma. Naruto added. "Me too, it has been 5 years since we are back to our future."

Sasuke asked, "How long it has passed in your era?"

"16 years. Hiko turned 16 this year," he replied. Naruto blinked sadly, "So... Grandpa Shodaime…."

Madara nodded, "I just got back from his grave with my children." They were silent in respect of Shodaime Hokage. Both Narutos and Asura said their condolences. Madara stared at the younger Naruto. "Are you Menma's real dad? Why are you turning yourself to be a teenager?"

Menma denied, "He is not, Madara-sama. He is the other Naruto from another future."

Madara frowned cautiously, "Another future?"

Before anyone from the future explained, there was a movement on his right where Tobirama and Izuna had just transported in. Tobirama was in a Hokage outfit while Izuna still wore a black mourning outfit like Madara since they had just back from visiting Hashirama's grave.

"Brother, wha—" Izuna widened his eye along with Tobirama the moment they saw the hologram picture of two sets of Sasuke and Naruto, and Menma. "Is that Naruto, Sasuke, and Menma?" He walked closer to his brother. Tobirama followed suit. He noticed, "There are Asura and Indra as well. What's happening?"

"Hi, Grandpa, wow, you are Hokage! Hello, Izuna," greeted Naruto. "We used the same crystal necklace to talk to you guys. Like Menma's pendant, remember? I don't know about the detail of how it works. But, Indra made it happens. He did it on the spot!" Naruto was in awe. "This guy is something!"

Madara, Izuna, and Tobirama stared at Indra. Tobirama admitted, "I'm not surprised that Indra has the ability to do this. Onamuji's scroll quite illustrates his ability."

"But, why? How come Indra and Asura appeared again? Where are you, Naruto?" asked Izuna.

"He is in Menma's future," Madara replied. Izuna and Tobirama were surprised.

"There is a Black Zetsu in here," said Sasuke grabbing their attention. They listened closely when Sasuke explained what happened in this future chronologically from their arrival and how they found Sasukeru and Narutoru. Naruto ended it with, "To avoid confusion, we call them Sasukeru and Narutoru. We called Menma's parents with Sasukepi and Narutopi."

Tobirama stared at Indra, "You can't sense Zetsu?"

"Only in short range," Indra admitted. Tobirama narrowed his eyes at Indra. Madara asked the future people, "What can we do to help you?"

Indra looked at Madara as he told them, "Indra shared the vision of you guys now a few minutes ago. My eye hurt and I saw through both Sasuke's eyes. I assume Indra used Rinnegan to share the vision and he told me to touch my necklace."

"You can talk to him?" Sasuke asked Indra. Madara was the one who answered, "No. He mouthed it. I read his lips."

Indra confirmed, "Indeed."

"Actually, we want to collect Grandpa Nidaime's chakra," Naruto looked at them with pleading eyes. He explained that he wanted to use it so he could communicate with Little Menma, his son in his origin timeline. Indra explained the jutsu that he will use. He also mentioned why he could not use it to find Sasukepi and Narutopi since only Minato was a known relative alive.

Tobirama asked Indra, "How about Kyuubi? They are mates. There has to be a strong bond between them."

"What I need is blood for this jutsu," Indra told him. "Susanoo may able to change his appearance using henge no jutsu and be apart from me but he is not a separate entity like Kurama who has flesh and blood. I didn't have Rinnegan in my time to create Susanoo a separate entity from me. In that regard, Susanoo is not alive like Kurama."

Madara and Sasuke remembered Hashirama's conversation with Susanoo when Naruto had a meeting with all the bijuus. Hashirama was asking about the reproduction of Kyuubi and Susanoo informed them that they indeed had a sexual relationship but never had children due to Susanoo needed Indra to give him the ability to bring life. Now, Indra confirmed that he needed Rinnegan to make Susanoo a full entity like Kyuubi. To conclude, Susanoo did not bleed and was not had the ability to have children with Kurama. They were able to do copulation but there was never any offspring. They were chakra manifestations but of different types. Kurama could bleed and had a heat cycle. Susanoo couldn't. Because of their creators, one had Rinnegan and one did not. Rinnegan made all the differences.

Tobirama asked, "How do I do this? Should I send my chakra through the necklace?"

Indra nodded, "Yes, I will let your chakra flow through the necklace and send it here. Like how Menma arrived here 5 years ago. Modification of Kuchiyose's Jutsu. I'm going to summon your chakra with Rinnegan's help."

"Is that why you don't need the formation jutsu that my uncle created?" asked Menma. "He needs several people to summon me back."

"Because they didn't have Rinnegan," Indra elaborated as Tobirama started sending his chakra to the necklace. "In comparison, there are several Rinnegans at the moment. One Rinnegan alone can share the vision through time like I did with Madara. One pair of Rinnegan can undo my grandmother's seal. And if Sasukepi is here, all variants can go back to their origins without problems."

"Are you planning to seal Black Zetsu in there with Rinnegan?" Izuna asked.

Indra was silent for a moment before he told Tobirama to stop sending his chakra. "This should be enough." He looked at the crystal necklace in his hand.

"Well?" Izuna was irritated because Indra ignored him. "Is it true or not?"

Indra looked at Izuna and said, "No. I'm not going to use Rinnegan to seal Black Zetsu."

"Why not?" Asked Naruto.

"There are two Rinnegan users in this future," Indra glanced at Menma, "Sasukepi and Menma. Even if they die, their Rinnegan could still be in use if their family chooses to not destroy it. My father sealed my grandmother and millennia later, one of my reincarnations awaken Rinnegan then she was freed before Sasuke and Naruto sealed her back. It will be too risky to seal Black Zetsu with two Rinnegan users in the same era. Anything can happen."

"Then, how do you plan to seal him?" Sasuke become suspicious.

Indra merely said, "I will explain when Itachi is back." He looked at Naruto, "I get the chakra I need for the jutsu. I will close the connection."

Naruto blinked, "It doesn't matter, right? You can use this jutsu anytime as long as there are the necklace and Rinnegan? We can contact them anytime, right?"

"True. Only if Madara touched his necklace when I activated this jutsu," as long as he is alive was left unsaid but everyone got the picture.

"I see," Naruto turned to the trio from the past. "Talk to you later then, Madara, Izuna, Grandpa!" He waved his hand but suddenly the hologram picture of the trio was gone. Indra turned the jutsu off.

—000—

Naruto scowled, "I've not finished saying goodbye."

"Do you want to talk to your children or not?" Indra reminded him as he prepared a big diagram of sealing on the ground. He used Sasuke and Naruto's blood that he took from them before they contacted the past.

Naruto pouted, "I do... But... Madara..."

"We can try again later," Asura reassured Naruto. "The necklace and Rinnegan are here, after all. But, connecting with Little Menma in your origins timeline will be a bit challenging. I think Ani-ue wants to do it immediately to know the result."

Naruto understood and nodded. Meanwhile, Narutoru was curious, "Hey, hey, why did you choose the time when Shodaime Hokage is dead?"

All eyes were on Narutoru when he explained, "To be honest, I was expecting to see Shodaime Hokage as well when you said we can do that vision-sharing thing. But, they said Shodaime was dead. They were back from visiting his grave, right? Why didn't you choose the time when both Madara and Shodaime Hokage were alive?"

Indra replied, "Mayumi Uchiha, the daughter, was the longest owner of this necklace. She had it for more than 40 years so her chakra is dominant in this necklace rather than her parents or brother. I used her chakra to trace back through the time when Madara was still alive and the early time she touched the necklace was toddler age. By the time she was born, Hashirama was deceased."

Narutoru frowned. He remembered Sasukeru's story about Mayumi Uchiha wanting to meet him after Sasukeru read the scroll. Since she never had the chance to meet her father who was Asura's previous reincarnation, Hashirama Senju. She wanted to talk to Narutoru and was willing to wait for Sasukeru to have the scroll first. He imagined being in her shoe and was amazed she had that self-control. Narutoru did not know if he could do that in this situation. Her little image from earlier when Indra did the jutsu touched Narutoru's heart, "She was so small in that vision... yet she is so strong to never reveal anything despite she knew about us..."

Naruto smiled, "Because she is a ninja. We all are. The one who endures any hardship."

Blue eyes widened, and Narutoru remembered what his father taught him about being shinobi. "My father said that!" Naruto grinned proudly, "I heard it from my father too!" Both of them felt a connection and smiled. They were truly the same despite the history and the way they were raised was different. Yet, at the last moment, Narutoru kind of wondering... Since they were the same, will he end up with Sasukeru like Sasuke and Naruto or Sasukepi and Narutopi? His eyes glanced at the youngest Sasuke and questioned himself. Will he and Sasukeru be a couple? Will they fall in fall with each other?

His train of thought was ceased by Indra who grabbed anyone's attention with, "Menma, bring the water and come here." The older Otsutsuki had finished drawing a complicated circle diagram on the ground. He gestured for the couple as well, "You two, stand there."

Menma brought a bowl of water and stood in a circle between Sasuke and Naruto who stood in other circles. Indra was in front of Menma. He said, "I will use water as a medium because we don't have a specific medium like the crystal necklace before. Water is usable but it's too generic to narrow down the timeline. Specific mediums like Hashirama's necklace or pendant are preferable to choose a precise time. To make it more accurate, I will use Menma's blood as well because Little Menma and this Menma had the same soul. Then, Tobirama's chakra will be the one to pick the Menma who had touched by his chakra due to his time-traveling jutsu."

He told Menma, "I'll draw another diagram on the water using your blood." Menma nodded. Indra pricked Menma's forefinger with the tip of Kunai then put his hand on Menma's wrist to draw a small diagram on the bowl using the bleeding finger. He instructed Sasuke and Naruto to touch the water.

At that moment, there was a shine on the water. There were several pictures on it. Changing every few seconds. Indra said, "We will search from the view of the water in your Konoha. Hopefully, Little Menma's position is around the water so we can see it."

"Does it has to be around a river or something?" Menma asked.

"No, it could be a glass of water or a cup of tea as long as the water they used is the same one as in this Konoha. I used the water with sources from Konoha only because Little Menma is in Konoha. Water is commonly used by humans to drink, bath, and other activities so there is a big chance we will find Little Menma around water any day."

They saw several pictures changed from no one to random people before they saw a half-face of Iruka and Little Menma. Naruto gasped, "It's Menma!"

"Now," Indra said. Sasuke and Naruto formed a seal with their other hands together because they have to touch the water so it was well connected. Indra already taught them the seal to hold the picture when they saw Little Menma so they could talk.

Naruto called his son.

—000—

"Menma!"

The boy received a glass of water from Grandpa Iruka during lunch when he heard Naruto's voice, "Dad?" He looked around with anticipation to see his blond father but no one was there. He put the water on the table as Suma come into the room with side dishes. They were going to have lunch. She saw her brother glancing around the room.

"What are you searching for?" She asked in confusion as she put the dish and sat beside her brother. The food was already on the table.

The brother answered, "I thought I heard Dad's voice." Suma gasped but Menma looked down sadly at his drink, "Maybe it's just my imagination."

Suma frowned forlornly. It has been several days since their parents were gone suddenly. They had reported it to Rokudaime Hokage and he reassured them that their parents were not abducted by the enemy. Suma was slightly relieved but she was sad because Rokudaime did not know when her parents will be back. He just said that as long as they were alive, Sasuke and Naruto will be back. Suma was advised to wait with her brothers.

Since then, the little Uchihas stayed at Hokage's residence. Mostly, Grandpa Iruka was the one who took care of them. Sometimes Aunty Sakura or Ino or Hinata. Menma and Suma still attended their Ninja Academy but Menma halted his shuriken practice after he came back with wounds. Grandpa Iruka suggested he didn't do it if he was upset because it will be dangerous for him. Suma did not play with her friends either because she was miserable due to the absence of their parents. Suma sometimes cries and Grandpa Iruka will gently holds her to reassure her that her parents will be back but Suma didn't think she will see her parents again.

"Menma!"

The siblings blinked.

"Menma!"

They heard it again. Suma asked her brother, "Did you hear that?"

Menma nodded, "Dad's voice."

"Menma! Your glass! Touch the water!"

The siblings looked at each other then Menma did as he was told. It was Dad's voice. There was no mistake despite they didn't see anyone in this room. Grandpa Iruka was with Yuma who need to take an afternoon nap. Menma put his finger on the water in the glass and then he saw their parents' faces with a teenager.

"Dad! Father!" Menma surprised. Suma got closer to her brother and saw the water. She bawled, "Daddyyyyyy! Fatheeeer!"

"Oh, Suma! Menma! Glad to see you! I'm so worried!" Naruto said on the verge of crying. He thought he would never see his twins again. Yet, here they were.

Menma attacked him with, "Where are you, Dad?! What's happening? Rokudaime-sama only say you will be back but never told us when," Menma scowled. Suma wept, "Why are you leaving us? Why? I'm scared!"

Sasuke calmed them, "He is right, Menma. We will be back. There are just some matters we need to attend to first then we will be back, Suma."

Naruto added, "We are not leaving you, Suma. We love you. I just want to say don't worry about us and don't be scared, we will be back soon. Stay together and take care of each other, okay?"

Both nodded.

"Where is Yuma?"

Suma replied during her sob, "N-nap. Grandpa I-iruka with him."

Naruto nodded, "Say to him that I say hi."

Menma stared at the teenager between her parents. "Who is he?" He looked at him more closely than his father. "Dad, why did you and he had the same eyes? Is he an Uchiha?"

Suma blinked and stared at the teenager. "B-but, Father said our family is the last Uchiha..."

"Do you have unknown relatives alive, Father?" Menma asked.

"No, I don't."

"Then, why he had the same eye like you? What's that eye? It's not Sharingan." Menma never saw it before and he had not learned about it yet.

"It's Rinnegan. The advanced level of Sharingan."

Both Menmas stared at each other. The teenager one glanced at Sasuke and Naruto who did the same as well. Sasuke sighed, "We will tell you when we are back, Menma, Suma. Just wait for us."

Indra gave the signal that the jutsu will cut off, Naruto told his twins, "We gotta go. Maybe we can talk again later. Stay safe and don't worry. Okay, children?"

Menma and Suma frowned but nodded.

They were aware that both of their parents were respectful shinobi. Sometimes their skills were needed without looking at the time and they were used to being left at night if it happened. It was just this time the first time their parents vanished suddenly like that so they thought it was more dangerous than any other time. However, they were a bit relieved to hear their father's voice and know their parents were okay. They thought of this like their parents had important missions which they could not tell. Sasuke tended to do that. Sometimes Naruto as well.

"It's nice to see you, Suma," Menma greeted the girl, he added cautiously to his little version, "Menma."

Suma stared, "You look familiar..."

Menma smiled at Suma who seemed to notice something even without anyone telling the truth. Suma called to their parents to be careful and come back quickly as the picture was gone. Menma did the same. When the picture was gone, Grandpa Iruka went in to check on them. "Have you two finished your lunch yet?" He asked.

Menma and Suma told him what they just encountered.


Osho0204: Aah... Boruto... Nah, i don't think i can watch it. It's not because he is NaruHina's son. Don't take it wrongly, I have no problem with NaruHina. It's a cute couple. I like Himawari. But, Boruto is another matter. He is ungrateful brat. I hate him so much. Especially, since we all grow up watching Naruto struggling and then Boruto just treat him like he is a shit. Man. I can't watch it. I hate how in that series Naruto and Sasuke became so weak just because the main character is Boruto. No. I can't watch it. I can't tolerate Boruto (and Sarada). Some reader in wattpad hoped that the twins Naruto carried in Perfect Time would be Boruto and Sarada but it will never be them. Boruto and Sarada will not be in my story ever. Not because they are the son and daughter of NaruHina and SasuSaku. No. Their personalities are not suitable for me. Just to be frank, I hate them. I will never write them.

About Otsutsuki Clan, I think it's getting weird in Boruto. I just saw people posting spoiler in FB. Maybe because it's not written by Masashi as the original or not but it's not what I had in mind. I will make up my own Otsutsuki Clan so yeah, I'm not watching Boruto. Oh, I heard that Masashi taking over Boruto and Kurama is dead or something? I know that. That's why it doesn't make sense for me anymore.

About Indra need Nidaime'chakra, I think you overrated Indra if you think he doesn't need it. What Indra need is not just traces of Nidaime's chakra, but Nidaime chakra itself because he is the creator of the sacred scroll. Of course it touches the twins when they were still insides Naruto. But, Tobirama as the creator touched the scroll the longest. It attached to him in someway which Indra can extract that traces. That's why he ask. Besides the twins in a way touched by Tobirama's chakra during the jutsu. In my mind, I think it's like this: in real word, you need biometric identification for devices. It can not be replace, right? So, the scroll is the device (bijus' chakras are the machine) and Tobirama's signature chakra is the biometric identification. Indra will crate new seals to connects all of that. I think Nidaime's chakra is like a chipset in a computer. The scroll is the computer but the chipset or the RAM/ROM is the core. All the chakra needed in the scroll like Indra and Asura chakras are the programme. So, to get something important you need the chipset. Is that make any sense? Sorry, I tried to simplify my explanation by comparing it to something in our life LOL

If he create new jutsu, yes, it's true. He can do it. You are not wrong. But, in here, he want to reach the twins visually. Like Menma's pendant ability. Other than SasuNaru, the link between them and the twins would be the sacred scroll or the creator of the said scroll. It will be enough to link them. And not just jutsu-wise, I have my own reason why Indra did it, which will affect the story. Not Indra, but someone will explain it in the later chapters. If you include Sasuke's ability in Boruto since he can travel through dimension, yes you are right. But, I don't think Indra or any his incarnations will be able to do Kaguya's dimension travel. His grandfathers and his birth father were humans. He is remarkable but not the same level with Kaguya. Not even Rikudou in the same level with her, IMHO.

Another reason is, my Vietnam reader translated Perfect Time to Vietnamese. I'm really honour to have this translated in another language other than Eng/Indonesian. Coz, it's really long story. It must be hard. So, I ask this reader if there's something they wish to be inside the sequel. They wish to see Madara and others so I create this part since it's a request. But, it's not only for this request. There is a reason why Indra able to do this. Well, Indra will never reveal his secret but someone know about it and spill the tea~~~ Can you guess who~~?

Martinez: Here is the updates!
