Naruto: sleeping invincible

The power of time—this is a power that the Ōtsutsuki clan did not control.

In the Boruto series, Ōtsutsuki Urashiki used the tool "Kara" to travel through time and space.

The Kara is a turtle with the power to travel through time, but it is not inherently part of the Ōtsutsuki clan's abilities.

It was just by chance that Urashiki found it.

Sasuke used the Kara, the time-controlling turtle, with Boruto to travel to the past to protect Naruto.

That is, in old Konoha, Sasuke demonstrated the great strength of the Uchiha clan.

"Uchiha Sweep," "Uchiha Hug and Fall," and so on—these moves were shocking.

If Madara saw it, I'm afraid the coffin wouldn't be able to hold him down.

But now Nanaya, with his Mangekyō Sharingan, has the power to change time.

Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan Tsukuyomi controls time, space, and reality within an illusion.

And Nanaya's Mangekyō Sharingan, with its Backtracking and Tomb abilities, changes real time.

Nanaya has this hunch that if he takes his Mangekyō Sharingan to its ultimate level, he might be able to go back several years, or even decades ago.

He could also travel years or decades into the future.

When I think about it, I imagine being able to see Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Hashirama in their prime.

And Uzumaki Kushina, Uzumaki Mito, and more.

Without thinking any more, Nanaya, who was lying on the bed, yawned long, and opened his eyes to see a delicate and pretty face.

"Tsunade, it's you!"

Tsunade immediately rolled her eyes at Nanaya.

"Little devil, it's best not to call me that in front of others. That's what my grandfather called me, but as you know, he's already gone."

Nanaya wondered, is there a causal relationship between the two?

"Also, I'm Konoha's Fifth Hokage now. You can call me Lady Fifth or Lord Hokage."

Speaking of which, Tsunade's face showed a hint of pride.

"Got it, Lord Hokage."

After all, she has become Hokage, so I still have to give some respect.

"Where is this?"

When Nanaya woke up, he saw a strange scene, a simple bed.

Everything else was much more luxurious than where he lived in the Uchiha clan.

"Of course, this is my place. Don't you remember how you fell asleep yesterday?"

Nanaya only knew that yesterday, with Tsunade, they returned to Konoha, and then he didn't remember anything.

"As the saying goes, when a new officer takes office, there are three fires. Do you have nothing to do, Lord Hokage?"

"It's alright; it turns out that being Hokage is pretty easy. The funeral of the Third Hokage is going to be held today, and everything else has stopped."

So easy?

In Nanaya's impression, Naruto was half exhausted after becoming Hokage, and he hardly ever rested normally.

There's a big, white Hinata at home, poor guy!

But the Third Hokage, the Fifth Hokage, and the Sixth Hokage Kakashi didn't seem to be so tired. It seemed easy for them to be Hokage.

Unlike Naruto, who has dark circles all day, showing signs of exhaustion.

Maybe there are more things in peacetime, and this can only explain it.

After leaving Tsunade, Nanaya returned to the Uchiha family's home.

He changed into black clothes, as participating in the funeral ceremonies required mainly black attire.

Except for the ninja guarding the village and those on special missions, everyone else came to the funeral of the Third Hokage.

On Konoha Street, ninjas in black costumes could be seen everywhere.

Everyone's expression was very solemn.

"Brother Nanaya, long time no see!"

A young voice came from behind. Nanaya turned around and saw that it was a little devil with yellow hair—it was Naruto.

Long time no see, Naruto had changed a bit; now he was almost nine years old.

Always optimistic, the cheerful Naruto's face was a little dazed at this time.

His impression of the Third Hokage was not bad, and it was surprising that he suddenly passed away like this.

"Brother Nanaya, why did the Third Hokage suddenly die?"

"He's not just a Hokage; he's a ninja, and being a ninja is about being ready to face death at any time."

"Oh!"

Naruto nodded knowingly.

Konoha Village Cemetery, with Sarutobi Hiruzen's remains in the center.

Many familiar figures gathered again.

Kakashi, Guy, Asuma, Genma Shiranui, Aoba Yamashiro, and others, all dressed in black formal clothes, looked serious.

Tsunade stood in front of the room and spoke the eulogy. Except for Danzo, Homura, and Koharu, who did not attend, everyone who was supposed to come was there.

The three of them, along with Sarutobi Hiruzen, were the Second Hokage's escorts and contemporaries, and it was not necessary for them to attend the funeral.

The students of the ninja school were guarded by Iruka.

Having not gone through the ninja war, they seemed to have a better understanding of the profession of ninja because of their innocence.

This world is a world filled with blood and tears; someone is born, and someone dies.

Some people can deprive others of their births, and some people can decide their deaths.

This is the life of a ninja.

The four-year-old Itachi experienced the Fourth Ninja War. He witnessed the fighting among the Jōnin on the battlefield, which led him to explore the meaning of life.

This also led to Itachi's precocious maturity, and at the age of seven, he was able to think with a Hokage's mind.

The mourning officially began, and everyone bowed their heads in silence.

Nanaya could hear someone sobbing softly.

Asuma lit a cigarette and said softly, "Let's go, old man."

No one knew that the death of the Third Hokage had a significant relationship with Uchiha Nanaya, who gave Orochimaru the chance to kill the Third Hokage.

Nanaya was very indifferent to the death of the Third Hokage.

He didn't have the mentality of being sympathetic to others and helping people in distress, just doing things that were beneficial to him.

If he hadn't known how things were going, he would have been gone as early as the night of the Uchiha clan's extermination.

The senior leaders of the Third Hokage let Itachi perform the task of exterminating the clan, not only for Konoha but also for themselves.

Nanaya gave Orochimaru a chance to kill the Third Hokage, also for himself.

He won't delve into conspiracy theories, saying that the Third Hokage didn't take good care of Naruto, killed White Fang, was cowardly, didn't dare to fight Cloud Shinobi, caused Neji's father's death, etc.

The Third Hokage just felt like he was doing what was right for Konoha.

Nanaya does the same thing—removes the leaves; he only does what is good for himself.

Death often happens in the ninja world, and this is the reality.

A few days later, the death of the Third Hokage had spread throughout the ninja world, and Tsunade, one of the Sannin, had become the Fifth Hokage, which had also spread to villages all over the world.

Land of Earth, Iwagakure!

A small old man stroked his white beard.

"Oh, it hurts; my back hurts. I didn't expect that old guy from the Third Hokage to have a shorter life than me, killed by his own disciple Orochimaru—what a short-lived ghost."

Kurotsuchi: "You're also an old guy; maybe one day you'll die. The Third Hokage was killed by his own disciple. Aren't you afraid that Big Brother Deidara will trouble you?"

"Stinky girl, what are you saying? Are you cursing your grandfather like that?"

"That kid Deidara actually joined that organization; it's better not to let me meet him."

.....

In a dark and obscure cave, the masked man Obito sat on the finger of the stone statue.

He slid out of the wall beside it.

"Ah Fei, it's not good; there's something you'll be surprised to hear!"
