"Did they run away?"
Naruto stood inside the Nine-Tails' chakra form, his eyes fixed on the sky where Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki and Kinshiki had just vanished.
Moments later, he released the Tailed Beast transformation and landed smoothly back on the ground.
At the same time, Minato and the others dispelled the Six Red Yang Formation.
Madara and Hashirama also returned to the arena.
"Did Ōtsutsuki Kinshiki and Momoshiki escape as well?" Madara asked, arms crossed.
"Ōtsutsuki… I thought they'd be formidable," he continued, a smirk tugging at his lips. "Turns out, they're just average. Mediocre skills, though I'll admit—they're damn good at running away."
"I thought they'd be as troublesome as Kaguya," Kakashi said, walking over calmly. "But it seems their strength doesn't even come close."
Sasuke's sharp gaze shifted to Menma.
"Uchiha Menma. You clearly had the power to stop Momoshiki from escaping with space-time Ninjutsu. Why did you just stand there? Now that they're gone, they could threaten the entire ninja world again at any moment."
"I've already pinpointed the spatial node they're heading toward," Menma replied coldly. "Get ready—we're going after them together."
As night fell, dozens of ninja gathered atop the Hokage Building.
A swirling, purple-black vortex appeared in the air, and Nagato's group emerged from within.
"Another team battle, huh?" Kisame muttered, stepping out with Samehada strapped to his back. "Taking on the Ōtsutsuki again—talk about pressure."
"Kisame-senpai, was it really you who took Samehada?" Chōjūrō asked, eyeing the sword.
"Haha! Chōjūrō!" Kisame grinned, baring his shark-like teeth.
"That's right. Samehada was just collecting dust in the Hidden Mist's vault. I figured it was better off with me—someone who can actually unleash its power!"
"No complaints here," Chōjūrō nodded. "Samehada's strongest in your hands anyway."
Deidara was next to emerge, and the instant he spotted Sasuke, his expression darkened.
"Uchiha Sasuke! Tell me, how the hell did you survive my ultimate art back then?!"
Sasuke glanced at him indifferently. "Boring."
"What did you just say?!" Deidara's anger flared. "Fine, I'll show you what real art looks like—"
"Deidara, can you not keep screaming 'Sasuke, Sasuke' all the damn time?" Kurotsuchi said with a teasing smile, patting his shoulder.
"Kurotsuchi, don't bother me!" Deidara snapped, shaking off her hand. "Uchiha Sasuke—!"
Nearby, Hidan complained loudly to Kakuzu.
"Kakuzu, why the hell are we being sent to fight the Ōtsutsuki again? We're just cannon fodder at this point!"
"Tch. You're the only cannon fodder here," Kakuzu shot back flatly.
Kakashi's gaze turned toward Might Guy, who had just stepped through the portal.
"Guy… your legs, are they working again?"
"Yes, Kakashi!" Guy said proudly, pumping his fist. "They've been reattached! Now we can have another youthful showdown!"
"Alright, enough catching up."
Menma's voice cut through the chatter. "Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki and Kinshiki are waiting for us."
He pulled out a small container and tossed it to Sasuke.
Sasuke caught it, frowning when he saw what was inside—his Rinnegan.
He stared at Menma in disbelief. Was he really returning it?
"Put it on," Menma said casually. "Once we're done with the Ōtsutsuki, I'll just take it back out."
"Hmph." Sasuke's tone was ice-cold. "After you've already implanted Hashirama Cells into me, you won't get another chance to gouge it out."
Menma only chuckled, saying nothing more.
Without hesitation, Sasuke took the Rinnegan and pressed it into his empty left eye socket, the power surging through him once again.
Nearby, Kushina clasped Minato's hand tightly.
"Minato, I can't believe we get to fight alongside our son again!"
Minato smiled gently, squeezing her hand. "Yeah… it reminds me of the Fourth Shinobi World War. You were just as excited back then."
"Everyone's here," Menma announced. "Let's move."
With a wave of his hand, a purple-black ripple expanded across the rooftop.
Nagato's group stepped into the vortex first, vanishing into the swirling light.
Then came Naruto, Sasuke, Madara, Hashirama, Guy, and the others—all leaping into the spatial passage leading to the Ōtsutsuki dimension.
Hinata watched with worry etched on her face.
"Boruto, are you really going with your father?"
"That's right," Sarada added softly. "It's enough for Naruto and my dad to go. You don't have to follow them."
"Brother, please don't go…" Himawari cried, clutching his sleeve tightly.
"Hey, don't worry. I'll be fine."
Boruto smiled gently, patting her head to calm her down. His eyes then met Sumire's.
"Boruto…" she whispered.
"Mm." He nodded slightly.
Finally, he turned to his mother. Hinata's expression still trembled with unease.
"Love you, Mom. See you tomorrow."
With that, Boruto stepped toward the spatial gate.
As his figure disappeared into the vortex, the portal slowly closed behind him.
