Madara Uchiha: "A bunch of idiots, isn't this normal procedure?"
[Uchiha Izuna: "That's how these 'urine-loving' people are; they don't even have the most basic common sense!"]
【“…”】
During the Boruto era,
The younger generation stared at the messages in the chat group and fell silent instantly.
They live such a peaceful life now...
I never imagined that the battlefield could be so brutal.
[Boruto Uzumaki: "The battlefield is terrifying. Peace is definitely better..."]
Sarada Uchiha: "If you don't understand, then why are we so peaceful now...without war?"
[Tobirama Senju: "That's because Naruto and Sasuke are there, so there's no war going on where you are."]
[Hashirama Senju: "Shouldn't it be about everyone understanding each other... and thus coexisting peacefully?"]
[Tobirama Senju: "Brother, you're too naive!"]
All the strategists of the Allied Shinobi Forces are dead...
Everyone felt a deep sense of despair from the video.
With the commander-in-chief dead, the battlefield instantly descended into chaos!
The morale of the Allied Shinobi Forces plummeted.
Even worse, some began to give up on themselves.
What exactly are they fighting for?
The ten-tailed beast, nearly a thousand meters tall, stood in the distance.
They can destroy vast areas with a mere flick of their fingers, so what's the point of all their hard work?
Obito controlled the Ten-Tails and suddenly spat out a large number of wooden spikes.
The Allied Shinobi Forces were instantly routed by this move.
Naruto watched helplessly as many of his comrades died around him, his face filled with despair.
Just as the Ten-Tails' arm was about to strike Naruto...
Japanese foot quickly unleashed the Bagua Empty Palm technique.
The arm was knocked away.
The Ten-Tails' arm spewed out a large number of wooden spikes again.
These wooden spikes shot straight towards Naruto's location.
"Damn it, I'm being targeted!" Hiashi Hyuga exclaimed anxiously.
Hinata, seeing this from afar,
He stood anxiously in front of Naruto.
"There are too many wooden spikes; Hinata and Neji can't possibly withstand them with their bare hands..."
Neji decisively activated his Byakugan and resolutely stood in front of everyone.
Simply because he is from the Hyuga branch family,
It has a fatal flaw.
This shortcoming prevented him from blocking the splinters in his blind spot.
Puff...
The sound of blood splattering rang out.
Neji's body fell heavily to the ground.
His spirit, like a caged bird, gradually sublimated!
Boruto and Himawari, who were watching the video, were stunned.
[Boruto Uzumaki: "You idiot dad, get up already!!!"]
[Himawari Uzumaki: "Uncle Neji!!"]
Naruto Uzumaki: "Neji...why did you go to such lengths to protect me?!"
[Hyuga Neji: "It seems this is my destiny from now on... Father, you were right, even a caged bird can change its fate."]
Neji looked at the scene on the sky, his expression becoming complicated.
He now understood his father's feelings back then...
Perhaps it was also out of a sense of responsibility.
To protect those who are important to you...
Was he forced to sacrifice himself?
The Allied Shinobi Forces charged relentlessly toward the distant Ten-Tails!
Naruto, his hands trembling, hugged Neji tightly and anxiously looked around.
"Medical team? Where is it? Come quick, someone's injured!!"
However, no matter how Naruto shouted,
The entire Allied Shinobi Forces' target was only the Ten-Tails in the distance.
No one heard Naruto's cries for help.
The video showed a highly ironic scene.
Sarada Uchiha: "Why isn't everyone stopping to save Neji-senpai?!"
[Uchiha Shisui: "Sacrificing the individual to preserve the greater good is quite normal..."]
Uchiha Itachi: "..."
[Hashirama Senju: "What's normal about this? Where has your Will of Fire gone?!"]
Within the Pure Land space,
Hashirama looked at the scene on the sky and was furious.
Everyone was indifferent to Neji's life or death.
They simply kept attacking the Ten-Tails.
"Why isn't everyone stopping to save Neji?!" Hashirama asked anxiously.
"Brother...this is normal. The people in the video are doing the right thing."
"Sacrificing one person to gain an opportunity to attack is the wisest choice." Tobirama shook his head.
[Nagato Uzumaki: "Hmph, in the end, it's because everyone's strength wasn't enough that these individual sacrifices occurred!"]
[Obito Uchiha: "Naruto, you saw it too, didn't you? You can't change anything in the video!"]
Naruto Uzumaki: "I..."
Neji leaned on Naruto's shoulder, his breath faint.
"I'm afraid... I'm not going to make it..."
Hinata knelt anxiously on the ground.
"elder brother……"
Neji's voice was weak, and he choked up as he said:
"Naruto... Lady Hinata was willing to sacrifice herself for you... so you have more than one life..."
The music became especially moving at this moment.
"It seems my fate... is one of them too..."
"Why... how could you die here? You betrayed the Hyuga clan..." Naruto's lips trembled.
“It was you… who freed me from the shackles of fate with those words.”
"Why did you sacrifice yourself for me... You risked your life to protect me..." Naruto shed two lines of tears.
"Because you... said I'm a genius!"
Naruto's pupils contracted sharply.
Memories of the past kept appearing on the sky.
The curse mark on Neji's forehead also began to dissipate.
He was like a caged bird that finally broke free of its constraints and took flight for the first time in its life.
But soon, the bird crashed heavily to the ground...
Obito stood on the high place, looking down at Naruto with disdain.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't let your comrades be killed? But look around, what's going on with all these corpses on the ground?" Obito's tone was icy.
This sentence is like a sharp blade.
It pierced straight into Naruto's chest, and Naruto's lips trembled.
Seeing Naruto's despairing expression below, Obito was very satisfied.
"Naruto, touch your comrade's corpse and really feel it..."
Death will continue, and all your naive ideas will eventually vanish!
Obito stared at the despairing Naruto below and coaxed him into speaking:
"Naruto, tell me, what's the point of persisting in this reality? If things continue like this, your comrades will leave you one by one!"
"Come on, let's create a new world together!" Obito stretched out his palm, his tone full of seduction.
Naruto was completely devastated, looking down at his toes with a face full of pain.
Seeing the images on the sky,
The faces of the younger generation were also filled with despair.
[Himawari Uzumaki: "So that's how Uncle Neji sacrificed himself..."]
[Boruto Uzumaki: "You idiot dad, pull yourself together!"]
[Uchiha Sarada: "Neji-senpai chose to sacrifice himself to protect the Seventh Hokage... Is this a kind of liberation for him?"]
[Hyuga Hiashi: "Neji..."]
As everyone gazed at the scene unfolding in the sky, they couldn't help but imagine themselves in Naruto's shoes...
If I were Naruto
I'm afraid they'll agree with Obito's idea at this point.
If this battle continues, the casualties of the Allied Shinobi Forces will only become more and more severe...
In the end, perhaps only Naruto will be left...
Rather than enduring this pain, it's better to enter that false dream world.
[Hashirama Senju: "Boys, pull yourselves together!!"]
Within the Pure Land space,
Hashirama looked at these disheartened youths and felt a deep sense of disappointment and frustration.
This Infinite Tsukuyomi,
To put it bluntly, it's a fake world.
What's the point of living in such a false world?
[Yuno Iwabe: "So this is the Fourth Shinobi World War that the seniors were talking about...?"]
[Raimon Denki: "This is terrifying, there are corpses everywhere..."]
[Darui: "That's why peace is best!"]
