Naruto, my father's name is Uchiha Madara.

Besides that, another method is a war of attrition.

Based on the information they pieced together, it seems that Obito's Hollowfication ability has a maximum duration, approximately five minutes.

As long as the attacks can continue for longer than this time, forcing him to be unable to dispel the intangibility.

It is possible to kill him the moment his abilities reach their limit and he is forced to materialize.

For this fatal blow, Konan exhausted the Akatsuki organization's vast financial resources.

They secretly prepared and purchased an astronomical number of explosive tags and carefully placed them beneath the sea in this remote area outside Amegakure.

Her tactic was to use the combination of the Paper Dance and the explosive tags to create a continuous saturation bombardment.

He forced himself to endure the five minutes of intangibility, and then, the instant Obito's ability ended, sent him to hell with endless explosions.

However, despite their meticulous planning, they did not anticipate that Obito was hiding the Uchiha clan's ultimate forbidden technique—Izanagi.

This technique comes at the cost of losing sight by sacrificing one Sharingan eye.

The spell transforms any harm, including death, suffered by the caster over a period of time into a dream, thereby rewriting reality.

It was precisely by using the Izanagi technique pre-set in the transplanted Sharingan that Obito was able to activate the technique at the last moment before Konan's continuous explosion.

At the moment when Nagato and Konan both thought he had been shattered to pieces.

Izanagi distorted reality, allowing Obito to "avoid" that fatal injury.

Although Nagato realized in time that Obito was not dead, Obito had already launched an attack, and Nagato had one eye gouged out before he could resist.

"We must... immediately inform Konoha about this..."

Supported by Konan, Nagato said weakly but urgently, "That guy... has already collected the chakra of all the tailed beasts except for the Eight-Tails and the Nine-Tails..."

"Originally, I thought... he couldn't synthesize the Ten-Tails without the Gedo Mazo, so he couldn't do anything... but now... he possesses a Rinnegan..."

He gasped for breath, uttering his worst premonition: "Things...are starting to spiral out of control...into a terrible direction..."

Konan nodded solemnly, understanding Nagato's meaning.

Obito obtaining the Rinnegan means that his control over the tailed beasts and his ability to advance his plans will be greatly enhanced.

The crisis facing the ninja world is imminent.

The two did not linger. Konan, supporting Nagato, flew swiftly toward the tower in the center of Amegakure.

Chapter 432 Come on! Call me sister!

As news of Naruto's return spread.

His once quiet little apartment suddenly became bustling and lively.

The first person to rush over was Iruka-sensei, whose face was filled with worry.

He practically rushed through the door until he saw Naruto standing before him, lively and full of energy.

My heart, which had been hanging in suspense for a month, finally settled down.

As usual, he gave Naruto a loving headbutt.

His eyes were red-rimmed, and his voice choked with emotion: "You brat!"

Naruto rubbed his forehead, which was sore from the impact, but his heart was filled with warmth.

He chuckled foolishly and promised, "I know, Iruka-sensei! I'll definitely do it next time... oh no, there won't be a next time!"

Immediately afterwards, his colleagues who had heard the news rushed over.

Sakura Haruno, Rock Lee, Kiba Inuzuka (with Akamaru), Shino Aburame, Tenten, Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi, Ino Yamanaka...

The small apartment was instantly crammed full, and the noise almost lifted the roof off.

"Naruto! Which alternate dimension have you been training in for the past month?"

Kiba casually wrapped his arms around Naruto's neck, while Akamaru barked excitedly.

"It doesn't seem like that," Shino said, adjusting his sunglasses and calmly analyzing the situation.

"Naruto-kun! Seeing you safe and sound makes my youthful passion boil again!" Lee gave a thumbs up, revealing his shiny teeth.

"Really, it's good to see you back. Everyone was so worried." Sakura breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on her face.

Amidst a cacophony of concerned and "interrogatory" remarks, Naruto scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and dropped that bombshell once again:

"Um... actually I didn't go to cultivate, I... accidentally traveled through time and space and went to the future."

"Future?!" x N

For a second, the room fell silent, then erupted into an even louder roar.

"The future?! Really?!"

"Naruto, what did you see?"

"What will I be like in the future? Will I become a great ninja who surpasses my father?" Kiba asked impatiently.

"Will I open a flower shop in the future?" Ino blinked curiously.

"Have I become a taijutsu expert as dazzling as Guy-sensei?!" Lee excitedly shook Naruto's shoulder.

Even Shikamaru, who always hates trouble, couldn't help but cast an interested glance: "Will there be even more trouble in the future...?"

Faced with a barrage of questions from his companions, Naruto tried his best to recall.

To be honest, during that short period of time in the future, he devoted most of his energy to guiding his adult self in training the Flying Thunder God Technique.

And in dealing with the threats from the Ten Luos and the Divine Tree People.

I didn't try to remember what my companions would look like in the future, as I would when looking at photos.

After all, their companions can immediately recognize who someone is just by looking at them, and they don't get too hung up on subtle changes in appearance.

He painstakingly pieced together fragments of memory and began to describe them to his companions:

"Sakura..."

He looked at Sakura: "You didn't keep growing your hair long, but instead got a very neat short haircut, which looks super capable!"

"and……"

He paused, then a mischievous smile appeared on his face: "You married Sasuke and became Uchiha Sakura!"

"Varied……?!"

Sakura's face instantly turned bright red, and she seemed to be enveloped in a steam of happiness, almost jumping up on the spot.

She covered her burning cheeks, and a poignant memory flashed through her mind: years ago in the Land of Snow, Sasuke from the future had said to her those meaningful words—"Thank you for your hard work."

It turns out that the words were not only an elder's gratitude to the younger generation, but also a future husband's gratitude to his past wife, a gratitude that transcends time and space.

Overwhelmed with joy and shyness, she could barely speak.

Naruto quickly added, "But Sakura! My future self specifically reminded you not to let your guard down or try to change things just because you know about the future!"

"If you don't work hard now, things might be different in the future!"

"Of course I won't!"

Sakura immediately clenched her fists, her eyes becoming incredibly determined, even ignited with a burning fighting spirit: "I will definitely become an excellent female ninja worthy of that future through my own efforts!"

Knowing the positive outcome gave her even greater motivation to move forward.

Then, Naruto looked at the others:

"As for his teeth... I don't think they've changed much, but his demeanor... um, he seems to have gained a bit more of a mature, uncle-like aura? Akamaru, on the other hand, has gotten even bigger!"

"Li! You'll look exactly like Teacher Kai in the future! Even your bodysuit and watermelon head are identical! So incredibly energetic!"

"Shikamaru... you've grown a beard, and you look more and more like your dad, Uncle Shikaku. You have this 'what a nuisance' look, but you seem super reliable!"

"Choji, you're still chubby, but you seem to have a stronger presence now!"

"Ino, you've become even more beautiful than you are now! It seems you've opened a huge flower shop!"

Listening to Naruto's description of the future, some people were happy, some were helpless, and some were full of anticipation.

The room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Upon learning that she would indeed be with Sasuke in the future, Sakura was in a blissful, euphoric state throughout.

Afterwards, Naruto solemnly introduced to everyone the light that was sitting quietly to the side, smiling as it watched everything.

"Everyone, this is our new friend, Hikaru, Uchiha Hikaru!"

"She comes from... well, a rather far place, and she will be living in Konoha from now on."

This is the new arrival, a beautiful and uniquely charming Uchiha girl.

Everyone showed great enthusiasm and goodwill, and came forward to greet them.

Ya insisted on showing her around the village, Ino invited her to visit the flower shop, and Tenten also said they could go shopping together.

The unexpected enthusiasm made Guang feel flattered, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she thanked him repeatedly.

The initial sense of unfamiliarity and unease I felt upon arriving in this new place dissipated considerably amidst these genuine smiles.

Just when the atmosphere was at its most enthusiastic—

"call out--!"

A black figure swept in through the open window like a gust of wind.

The speed was so fast that the wind pressure it generated even blew the hair of several people near the window!

Before anyone could react, everything went blurry.

Upon closer inspection, one could see a young man with black hair and black eyes, a handsome face, but who looked clearly travel-worn and anxious.

He had already gripped Naruto's shoulders tightly.

It was Uchiha Sasuke who had just finished his mission and rushed back as fast as he could after receiving a message from the communication toad!

He was so excited that his Sharingan involuntarily activated.

The crimson three-tomoe pearl slowly rotated in his eyes, staring intently at Naruto.

His voice was slightly hoarse and trembling from the hurried journey and his inner excitement:
