Chapter 142 - Godbito

"No…!"

Naruto saw white Zetsu sprouted from the ground. It was attacking helpless villagers! Screams, tears, terror. The blood of the innocent fell.

8 Noble Paths! Summon!

The 7 Bijuus puppets appeared.

"You guys, we need to stop them!"

The Bijuu's begrudgingly helped Naruto. 

Shukaku used Sand Coffin to bury a few white Zetsus. He turned to look at his other siblings.

"Hey what if we got caught. Shouldn't we run away now."

San Goku snorted. "Run where? Better to stay with the brat."

Kage bunshin! Naruto rushed in to take down white Zetsu.

After clearing the village, the villager thanked him. The survivors still took their things and ran away.

"What's happening… How could this happen? Everything… everyone… was it Madara…?"

Naruto's face turned colder. 

I won't let you get away.

"Heyya…" An aloe vera-like creature suddenly appeared from the ground.

"Uwa! Talking aloe vera!" 

"A-aloe vera? Nnh! Land of Frost…! Madara is waiting…!"

"Land of Frost…" 

Zetsu then disappeared into the ground. Naruto clenched his fist.

I will stop all this.

Naruto rushed towards the Land of Frost, ready to confront Madara.

Kumogakure Shinobi was seen fighting white creatures. Naruto sent Shadow Clones to help them.

"It's… the Demon Slayer…!"

The kumo Shinobi seeing him cheered at his presence. Kumogakure had a grudge against Tsuyu, and her deeds towards them would never be erased in memory. So while Naruto was hunted down, in Kumo's heart he was some saviour that erased a Demon.

"What's happening!" Naruto asked as he killed another Zetsu.

"5th Shinobi War… someone attacked all Shinobi villages with all these white things."

"Why!?" Naruto felt angry, and in despair. They already went through war. Through so many deaths. And now it's starting again.

Tears fell down his cheek.

It just never ends… it just never ends…

Tsu-chan… why is this world so fucked up…

A powerful pressure appeared on the battlefield.

Screams of terror and pain sounded as many Kumogakure's Shinobi were trapped in the emergence of a forest.

"What power is this…!" Naruto was shocked seeing the forest growing and devouring many.

As the forest emergence approached him, he clasped his hands and shouted loudly.

Shinra Tensei!

The forest emerging was destroyed, prevented from coming any closer.

Naruto looked ahead, shocked at seeing the figure in the sky. 

The figure in all white opened his eyes. A purple Rinnegan on the slit of his forehead opened.

He levitated towards Naruto, ready to get 7 tailed beasts.

"Uzumaki Naruto… Hand over the Bijuus. You will have a perfect dream, the kind of peace that you had wanted."

"NO! You are just running away by casting illusions! You know it wasn't real!"

"... there's no other choice. A perfect world only exist in a dream."

"Then I don't want it!"

"You will reunite with your little sister… in that world."

Naruto's heart stopped for a second.

"She would become the little sister you had wanted and could accept. Not the God, not the monster she was. Only, 'Tsu-chan' as you call her."

Naruto's will wavered, his eyes looking down.

"Won't you want such a world…"

Godbito came closer to him.

"I do… it sounds… really nice…" Naruto's eyes were brimming with tears.

"At times I imagine what would be like, if Tsu-chan was… a nice person?"

"It sounds nice…"

"Good. Then let me fulfill your dream…"

"But it won't be Tsu-chan… it won't be the same…"

"She won't want this… it's unfair… that I tried to change her…"

"I killed her… and I should live to atone for it… not run away in some little dream…"

"... Then I had to take it forcefully from you, Naruto." Godbito's eyes hardened.

"I won't let you! 8 Noble Paths!" 

ROAR! The 7 Bijuus in each of their puppets turned into Tailed Beast cloak mode, their tails swaying, each showing different nature releases.

Godbito clasped his hands together, deciding to use Wood Release that can restrain all bijuu. He couldn't use Gedo Mazo that had no Bijuu chakra at all to suck Naruto's Bijuus yet. He needed to weaken him first!

 Wood Release!

"I will achieve true peace!" Forest Emergence!

"I won't let you! Bijuudama!"

Naruto himself raised his arm, creating a Bijuu-rasengan.

7 Bijuudama and a Bijuu-ransengan were thrown, destroying the woods. Obito just sneered and looked at them exploding onto him.

BOOM!

The terrain changed from the attack. As the dust settled, they were only barren land. Obito casually moved behind Naruto, appearing with Kamui. But the 7 Puppets sharing perception made Obito get caught way earlier.

Obito tried to sneak attack, but Naruto managed to block and dodge him. Naruto's hands felt like they were breaking when they exchanged a few moves just now.

His body… so strong…!

Shared perception like 6 paths of pain…

Naruto made hand seals, and summoned 3 Giant Toads including Gamabunta, Fukasaku and Shima.

"Naruto-boy! Come let me help you." Fukasaku shouted.

"Okay!" The 7 Bijuu Puppets and 3 Giant Toads entangled with Obito.

Yes, Jiraiya secretly let Naruto train Sage Mode during the war, after seeing Tsuyu's monstrosity. Jiraiya believed only Naruto could stop her as per the prophecy. And he only perfected them during the 3 years he had with Akatsuki after he gained his conviction and will to stop Tsuyu.

Fukasaku and Shima attached themself on Naruto's shoulders. The Bijuu's consciousness didn't complain and cooperate.

Sage Mode! Orange eye shadow covered his eyes, powerful Senjutsu chakra emitted from him.

Obito frowned. Naruto wasn't easy at all. He really didn't expect it. Obito tied Shukaku, the weakest with Wood Release, encased them in Crystal Release. He moved at swift speed beating the Toads, dodging attacks, and beating them all like trash.

"Hmph… weakling…"

Naruto clasped his hands, his Rinnegan almost glowed in purple light.

8 Noble Paths to Enlightenment!

All the Bijuu puppets poofed away. The Bijuus shared their chakra with Naruto.

"I will stop you!"

Red chakra flooded his entire body. Bijuu Chakra Mode!

An attire made of Bijuu chakra covered all of his body, turning him entirely light red. His Akatsuki Robe zipped open, the red chakra robe fluttered, his eyes turned into a mix of horizontal and vertical slit together.

"You…! Why won't you give up!" Obito shouted as he rushed to Naruto.

"Because it's… My ninja way!" Kagebunshin no Jutsu!

They engaged in taijutsu battle, the terrains were changed from Obito various nature releases.

Even with Naruto reaching the same speed as Obito, his hits always pass through him.

"Dammit! How do I hit him!"

Obito was more frustrated. He thought he could get 7 tailed beasts easily. But his frowned lessened. He wasn't serious all this time.

Kamui! He tried to get Naruto, but Naruto's movement speed was too fast for Kamui to finish.

Naruto once more reached him, but simply passed through him. Obito saw a chance and finally stabbed him with an Ice blade. But Naruto actually tanked it and smiled evilly. His smile was similar to Tsuyu, like a little gremlin catching his opponent as if he had planned this all along and had gathered so much chakra for this moment. 

The greatest Shinra Tensei even more than Nagato ever could use!

SHINRA TENSEI!

BANG!

The entire world shook and trembled, Godbito was hit directly with the unexpected attack. The whole terrain changed, the landscape turned into ruins. If Tsuyu had known Naruto took part in her tactic, she would feel really proud.

Naruto had killed Kumo shinobi, that they were collaterals. He knew, but perhaps he had learnt it. That he was slowly understanding Tsuyu. And that a part of her always lived on.

Godbito coughed up blood as he was pushed tens of kilometers away from such a powerful technique.

"DAMN YOU…!" Obito's body healed fast. He almost died from the attack.

Naruto was taken aback that Godbito actually survived, his body felt a little weak after using such Jutsu.

Obito summoned the Perfect Susanoo, covering the world like a God.

"Kamui Sword!" Both of the Susanoo's blades turned into black blades. Each of its swings had the power of space!

"Why won't you stop!" Godbito screamed as he swung them, cutting mountains and the lands.

Naruto clasped his hands, a giant Fox puppet appeared, covered in all Bijuu's chakra turning into a Red Demon Fox of chakra.

"Naruto, do not try to get cut! That sword can cut through anything!" Chomei reminded me.

"Got it!" Naruto used the Asura path, turning each of the Demon Fox tails into chakra cannons. 

The fight between two megazords ensued, with Naruto moving around the battlefield shooting at long range, afraid of the blade that could cut through anything. Just then, Obito rushed in, as if he wanted to tank a Bijuudama shooting at him.

Kamui!

When Bijuudama was transported, he swung a Kamui blade ready to end this! But suddenly-

A Purple giant came down from the air, his blade sent Godbito's Susanoo a few steps back.

"Another one!" Godbitoo was frustrated.

"Sasuke…" Naruto turned to look. Even Sakura-chan, Kakashi, Karin, Jugo, and Suigetsu (?) were all here.

"OBITO!" Kakashi screamed at him.

"Kakashi… why are you even here." Obito's words were cold. Since Godbito made his appearance, Kakashi naturally knew he was in fact Obito from his face.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? HAVE YOU GONE MAD! OBITO?!"

"... Maybe. I wanted to create a perfect world… It was already hopeless."

"... Even if it is… we should try." Naruto muttered.

"The world sucks. But that's why… we shouldn't lose hope and try! Nagato wanted to be God like Tsu-chan had… at least they tried, even if… it was the wrong you."

"BUT YOU SIMPLY RUN AWAY! YOU JUST GIVE UP! CREATE SOME DREAM NONSENSE! A COWARD!"

Obito felt his heart trembling. 

"No. Only through dreams can a perfect world be achieved."

"This world wasn't supposed to be perfect…" Naruto turned to look down.

"I don't know what's the right way, what's the best way, but I know I still want to believe…"

"You…" Obito's eyes hardened. His Kamui blades combined into one long and large one.

"Sasuke… he's strong, just leave him to me…" Naruto didn't want Sasuke to get hurt.

"I am not alone." Sasuke muttered.

"Naruto, let's fight together." Sakura looked at Naruto softly.

"Sasuke… Sakura…"

"CHANAROO!!" Strength of the Hundred Seal, Release! The diamond mark on Sakura, the Yin seal she had mastered over the years, opened. The dark line covered her as she placed her hand on Sasuke's back.

A hint of blush appeared on Sasuke's cheeks. The black line covered Sasuke, giving him tons of chakra from what Sakura had stored over the years.

The majestic Susanoo turned more grander. Jugo unleashes his Sage Mode, releasing Sage power covering the entire Susanoo.

"I will help him stop his movement!" Karin screamed as Adamantine chains spread out from the back of the Susanoo, as if they were extra limbs.

Kakashi acted as a psychological weapon and kept shouting at Obito. Suigetsu as the Team moral support by existing.

"You guys…" Naruto had tears in his eyes.

Hagoromo looked at the two, as if Ashura and Indra had flipped their fates in these reincarnations…

"Naruto… you are not alone. Idiot." Sasuke said softly. 

Naruto shed tears hearing such a word.

"Nn… Okay… you got me. Just be careful, his Swords could cut through anything. His Shuriken too."

"Hmph. Let's see if he can hit me." Sasuke made a hand seal.

Majestic Armor of Raijin! Lighting Release: Lightning Flow covered the entire Susanoo, with Sakura's and Jugo's chakra helping him tank the cost creating arcs of lightning.

Flash! Like lightning, the big megazord moved like the wind and slashed a lightning blade at Godbito!

"Damn you!" Obito was unable to react and was hit, his Susanoo was cut and was pushed back.

"Kamui Shuriken!" Obito threw more of it, but Sasuke's megazord moved like lightning, illogical of its size.

Naruto's eyes turned more serious, using more Bijuudama's to block his retreat.

The whole world shook as the Gods fought. 

Obito escaped through Kamui as his Susanoo was slashed into two by a blade covered with lightning.

Zetsu appeared next to Obito. "Summon the Outer Path, become its jinchuriki and take the 7 Bijuus".

"... Fine." Obito didn't think he needed that. It seemed, he has to do it.

"I need the 7 Bijuu… or I would really lose…" Kuchiyose, Gedo Mazo!

The Gedo Mazo was summoned, and instantly it was absorbed into Godbito.

His strength increased two fold instantly. But, it wasn't enough.

"This power. I should have done it earlier…" But Zetsu had an evil smile instead. 

Obito once more summoned his Susanoo. But this time, he had a clear conscience. As they fought, Godbito let Sasuke destroy his Sunasoo as he went right through all of them. His target, Naruto!

Taken off guard, Naruto shot a bijuudama at him, but he passed through them. Naruto once more charged up for Shinra Tensei ready for him!

Godbito jumped and stood right on top of the Demon Fox puppet, purple chains shot through the puppet, and right into Naruto's body.

"AHHH!"

7 Tailed Beast was seen about to be pulled out.

"NARUTO!" Sasuke was about to rush to him, but a forest emerged and binded him tight. The wood absorbed the chakra of the Susanoo and restricted him.

"I won't… let you…! Shinra Tensei!"

BANG!

Godbito tanked it, his body crushed, bled, but he held on tight.

FOR MY WORLD!

The terrain changed, the ground shook.

As the dust settled, Sasuke looked at the aftermath.

The Demon Fox puppet lost its red chakra, turning back into 7 lifeless white puppets, Naruto… laying on the ground weakly. 

"No…Naruto…"

"HAHAHAH!" Obito laughed as 7 tailed beasts he took in transformed him. The purple rinnegan in his eyes turned red with 6 tomoe.

"NARUTO!" Sasuke cried out seeing him. Karin shed tears, feeling his flickering chakra.

"He's… he's dying…" 

"Naruto!" Sasuke's Susanoo flared with Amaterasu, his eyes bled, his chakra consumed at much speed.

The Susanoo moved like lightning, trying to slash at Godbito. But he looked at it like Sasuke was stupid.

The ground cleaved in two. But Godbito was unharmed through Kamui. He could tank it, but why would he? His God body let him use Kamui even with all chakra he had, even if he became a 10-tail jinchuriki.

Boom! Sasuke took Naruto's body into the Susanoo and created distance, trying to find countermeasure, his two eyes bled.

Amaterasu, Kagetsuchi! Amaterasu Domain!

The whole field turned into black flames. Flames constantly move trying to engulf him like they were serpents.

"I see. You want to use such a method to consume my Kamui limit… but…" He laughed out loud as he absorbed the Amaterasu. 

"I AM GOD!"

"No…!"

Godbito flashed to Sasuke, with a kick, crack and destroy the Susanoo. 

Sasuke, Sakura, Kakashi, Karin, Jugo, Suigeto and Naruto's weakening body was thrown away like trash.

Godbito sneered, not caring about these people anymore as his goal were finally about to complete.

His Rinnesharingan turned to face the moon. 

Infinite Tsukiyomi…!

***

Meanwhile... outside a humble cabin by the beach, Tsuyu was casually lying down, her gaze looking up a the stars, hearing the breeze of the wind, the scent of the ocean and waves hitting the shore. Observing the starry skies. And big full moon.

Ha...~

Tsuyu smiled softly, feeling she had peace. Kurama, Gyuki, Reibi and Nue was playing around.

A hint of vicissitude in her eyes.

Maybe if her friends were here it would have been truly perfect... and maybe if, Naruto had been here, before everything that happened, it would have been a dream. But now, it's good enough for her...

Maybe she should check up on Konoha at times, she thought. But seriously... she squinted her eyes, her eyes look right through the barrier and onto the floating old man outside her barrier. She hated people disturbing her peace.

Who and what he wants...
