In an instant, Danzo was brutally crushed to death. The scene was shockingly brutal. However, Sasuke's hatred for that person did not cool down.
"Sasuke, I have something you might want to hear," Naruto spoke.
"What is it?" Sasuke turned his gaze to Naruto.
"The evolution of the Sharingan is the Rinnegan. This is what Obito wanted from you, as he needed it to revive the real Madara," Naruto revealed.
Everyone there was shocked. After all, this was a surprising revelation.
Until then, they just suspected that Obito was Madara, but, as he always wore a mask, nothing proved that he was the real Madara.
"Rinnegan... Can it really resurrect someone?" The part that caught Sasuke's attention the most was this.
"Of course, it can. Do I have any reason to deceive you?" Naruto rolled his eyes. Then, he smiled a little: "Right, if you want to do this, obviously, you're going to need your brother's body."
"And my parents..." Sasuke asked.
"That depends on you," Naruto said. "The more you try to resurrect someone, the higher the risk you run. Isn't that right, Konan?"
"Mm," Konan nodded.
Only now did Sasuke observe Konan more closely. Although she looked a little different, he remembered seeing her before.
"Pain... He had the Rinnegan, right? Was he an Uchiha?" Sasuke asked.
"No, he wasn't," Naruto denied. "He was an Uzumaki who received the eyes from Madara himself, who intended to use him."
"Naruto!" Tsunade tried to interrupt him. How could he just go on saying these things?
"It's all right, Tsunade," Naruto looked at her. "I just feel like I have nothing to fear. It's strange, you know? I feel that even if the real Madara was here, he wouldn't be able to move a single finger if I didn't let him."
Yes, he knew he was being confident and even a bit arrogant. However, the fact that he had managed to kill Obito so easily and without using even half of his strength had brought this out in him.
And his power continued to grow with each passing day.
Tsunade found no words to contradict Naruto. At the current moment, he conveyed to her a sense of power that surpassed even her grandfather's, Hashirama's.
Without the help of Obito or even Nagato, how would Madara be resurrected? By Kabuto? Naruto was already itching to go after him.
It was only a matter of time before Kabuto was eliminated as well.
Without these people, only Zetsu was left, but he didn't have the skills to sort this out in a short span of time... And that's if Naruto didn't find him first...
"So that's it," Konan reflected, seeming to be deep in thought.
"Sasuke, if you want my help, you'll need to behave," Naruto asserted. "If you step out of line, you can forget any help from me."
Sasuke closed his eyes. Then, he dispelled Susanoo, and Danzo's remains fell heavily to the ground.
Tsunade approached and sealed Danzo's remains. Concrete proof of Danzo's death was needed.
With the information she had received so far, everything was very recent and quite complex. It would take her some time to digest it all.
Konan took a deep breath. She closed and opened her eyes. Now, finally, all those involved in her friend's death had been eliminated...
"I accept, Naruto." Sasuke opened his eyes.
"Right." Naruto gave a small smile.
In an instant, he appeared next to Sasuke.
Looking towards Tsunade, he said: "I'm going somewhere with Sasuke, you all can go back. Ah, yes, you three should follow Tsunade. Don't even think about running away~"
Noting that Sasuke didn't show any opposition, they nodded in agreement.
After Naruto and Sasuke had already moved a considerable distance away, Sasuke asked: "Where are we going?"
"You know where Obito's hideout is, don't you?" Naruto asked, and seeing Sasuke nod, he continued: "We're going to get your brother's eyes to implant in you."
"Why?" Sasuke cast a suspicious glance in his direction.
"Isn't it obvious?" Naruto raised an eyebrow as if Sasuke had asked an absurd question: "For you to be able to awaken the Rinnegan, it is necessary to evolve your eyes in the same way Madara did, and he achieved this by implanting his own brother's eyes and receiving the First Hokage's cells."
"Don't look at me like that, I have another method, I won't do the same thing." Naruto laughed at the expression on Sasuke's face after hearing what he said at the end.
"It doesn't matter, even if it's necessary to use the First Hokage's cells, I accept!" Sasuke stated in a decisive tone.
"Sasuke..." Naruto shook his head in response.
"First, we also need to recover your brother's body that's at Obito's hideout, and luckily, Zetsu will be there and I can get rid of him too." Naruto planned.
"Zetsu, does he hold some secret?" Sasuke asked, thinking more clearly now. He felt a pang of suspicion at the tone of Naruto's voice when mentioning the name Zetsu.
"One could say that," Naruto responded, without revealing all the details.
"Okay, let's not waste any more time." Naruto concluded: "I'm going to use a skill to make us fly, don't resist."
Sasuke nodded, and soon a wind enveloped them both, lifting them off the ground.
"Which direction should we go?" Naruto questioned.
Seeing Sasuke indicate, Naruto nodded, and then they started flying at an impressive speed.
"Oh, and there's one more thing, people believe that you've captured the Eight-Tails." Naruto commented during the journey: "We need to clear that up, or else, it could cause even more problems in the future."
"I understand." Sasuke nodded. In his mind, everything came down to how to resurrect his brother and parents. The rest, for now, was not as relevant.
Naruto could understand this sentiment. If it weren't for the fact that he was very close to reviving his own parents, he would probably be in the same situation as Sasuke.
In Naruto's case, he just needed to capture a beast in the hunting dimension and make one of his parents be reborn in its body. Preferably, he would like it to be a powerful beast, like the Golden Monkey or the Fire Dragon, or even for his mother, the FireFox.
Any of these three would be ideal. However, for this to work, the power of his father and mother needed to increase, which is why he had shared the orbs with them.
He could use a corpse, but the chances of success might decrease. It was better to opt for the safe path. He was dedicating himself to strengthening his mind so as to attack the chosen beast's mind and then, transfer his father or mother into it.
This way, when they were revived, they would already have a powerful body with pure energy.
A few minutes passed until Sasuke indicated: "It's there."
Naruto nodded. The place resembled his father's training field, but it was even more discrete.
Naruto led their descent. As they got closer, he activated Sage Mode. Sensing someone's presence, he released Kotoamatsukami.
Immediately, more than three beings inside the hideout came under Naruto's control. Consuming orbs to recharge the energy that had been spent in the use of Kotoamatsukami, Naruto entered the hideout.
"Let's complete the implantation of your brother's eyes and then we can go back," Naruto said. "As for the awakening of the Rinnegan, it might take some time, but, in the worst case, we'll have to use the First Hokage's cells."
"Right." Sasuke agreed. After all, he was a young man of 16, almost 17 years old. At this moment, what he most wanted was to have his family back.
