Naruto Taught By Aizen - Chapter 291
Too strong, is this the potential of spiritual pressure?” The skunk was even more bitter to say the least, comparing it to the two, he realized that he was like a wreck.
“Boom boom boom.” The battle between Naruto and Sasuke continued.
Sasuke’s strength and speed caused waves in Naruto’s heart that had not been there for a long time.
After the previous Otherworld’s Hachimen Kai, he had barely met a slightly decent opponent.
Even Zeb and Jurassic couldn’t make a single ripple in his psyche.
Now, he realized that the blood in his body had a temperature.
Longing rose within.
He wanted to see more of Sasuke’s strength.
Being able to fight his regular self-back and forth, Sasuke had proven his potential.
“Ka ka ka ka.” Lightning surrounded Sasuke’s body as he blasted out a punch in a matter of moments.
“Jaeger.” Sasuke’s speed and power once again saw a surge, his fist breaking the speed of sound, and the white robe on his body was about to be unable to hold back the firm muscles that were bulging.
The friction between the fist and the air produced flames, and the lightning even brought up a piercing shrill.
“Coalesce, Meta Field.” Naruto drew his zanpakuto and directly enveloped the two in the Meta Domain.
Sasuke’s punch came with such force that it would likely cause irreversible damage to the Shinigami Coalition.
After using his Zanpakuto, Naruto hastily retaliated with a punch to meet it.
“Boom.” Waves of air rolled up, the earth crumbled, and Naruto immediately flew backwards like a cannonball, his body flying a thousand meters away.
“With power like that, it looks like you’ve gotten rid of everything that bound you.” Naruto stood up and casually knocked the dust off his body, his eyes filled with admiration.
“But it’s still not enough, is it?”
Sasuke, however, was a bit bitter.
His own punch had hit, but it still couldn’t do any damage to Naruto.
This was undoubtedly despairing.
The more progress one made, the more one could instead see barriers and gullies that could not be crossed.
Just as mortals looked at gods, no matter how powerful mortals were the concept of a god was unconquerable, and they were unable to clearly feel how powerful a god really was.
And only those who were close to a god, who might become a god, could more deeply appreciate the gap between themselves and the god.
Sasuke took a deep breath, his eyes staring Naruto dead in the face as the lightning under his feet continued to begin to linger and erupt.
“I’ve been chasing your back ever since we met, but no matter how hard I try, the gap between us grows wider and wider.” Sasuke said in a low voice, walking slowly towards Naruto.
“The day you left Konoha, my heart was filled with disbelief and pain, because in my mind, you were not only my partner, but a dear friend who guided my direction.” Sasuke had a sincere face.
“I couldn’t understand your thoughts and didn’t agree with your philosophy until the end …… I also came to my senses.”
“You can only understand pain if you have experienced it, I agree with Seireitei’s philosophy, and I also believe that you can bring peace.”
“I abandoned the Uchiha and left Konoha, finding a new direction and clarifying my own heart, I will fight for my own justice.”
“I had no desire to get involved in this war. But I had to make one thing clear, and that was the purpose of your creation of the Ten-Tailed Human Pillars, and if it was truly for the purpose of transforming the Shinobi Realm into a Pure Land, I was absolutely unable to sit back and do nothing about it, and so, here I am.”
“Even though I understand that there is absolutely no way I can be your opponent.” Sasuke said word for word.
Before the duel, Sasuke had already settled the people of the village, and this time, it was with the determination of certain death!
Hearing Sasuke’s heartfelt words, Naruto spread a smile.
“Converting the Shinobi world is something I don’t care to do.” He shook his head.
“Sure enough, you’re still the same Naruto I know.” At those words, Sasuke gave a relieved smile.
“Then, I’ll go all out next and show you what I’ve got.”
The nature of this battle had changed; it would be a battle between two partners who trusted each other.
For Naruto, Sasuke was a partner he valued as well.
Sasuke, like Kouri, was someone with whom he had always formed a bond during his time in Konoha.
Even though he’s been plotting everything, he’s not Ranzan after all, and he does have feelings.
That’s why he also deliberately focuses on Sasuke and pushes him to be stronger.
“Be careful, Sasuke, if you don’t pay attention you might die.”
“Moro Manji, flowing blade if fire.” Naruto drew his zanpakuto, and an endless sea of fire churned and directly surrounded the entire ground of the Meta Domain, the earth crumbling and lava spewing out.
The Meta Domain, which was already red in color, was now like a hell on earth.
The temperature in the air alone was enough to make an ordinary person die of dehydration in a few seconds.
Sasuke’s expression became excited and he tilted his head, his forehead veins bulging.
“Ah.” He let out a mournful hiss as lightning continued to erupt from his entire body, the roaring electricity causing debris to fly around.
The red sky was pierced by lightning, and from a distance, white light rushed up into the clouds, forming a brilliant white cloud at the top of the sky.
“Ka ka ka.” Cracks unexpectedly appeared at the very top of the Mei Ta domain and began to spread at tortoise speed.
This meant that the strength Sasuke had now erupted was enough to shatter the Beginning Resolution’s Metta Domain.
Along with Sasuke’s even more mournful roar, he was seen bending his legs, maintaining the Zamabushi stance, and an upward surge of spiritual pressure continuously appeared on his body.
The airflow of the entire area was reversed, and his eyes were even bursting with blinding yellow light.
“Such spiritual pressure ……..” Naruto’s eyes widened, and for the first time in his life, he revealed a stunned and shocked gaze.
Perceiving it, Sasuke’s Spiritual Pressure rose exponentially, quickly breaking through the Bankai Shinigami and reaching a new realm.
In a crackle of lightning, Sasuke’s black hair transformed into blonde hair, rooted up, and his pupils turned gold.
“Come on, Naruto!!!” Sasuke spoke, his voice echoing through space.
“Is this the potential of an exterminator?” Naruto couldn’t help but murmur as the shock was still hidden in his eyes.
“Sure enough, you’re the perfect candidate for the program.” He said something that left Sasuke a bit puzzled.
“Whew.” The flowing blade, Wakizashi, traced a path in Naruto’s hand.
The sea of fire in the sky immediately descended towards Sasuke like a meteorite, as far as the eye could see.
“Such flames! Sculpture!!!” Sasuke stood in the midst of the flames, his legs erupted violently, leaving two deep craters in the ground, his figure quickly approached the sea of fire, and he punched out.
“Thumbla!” The air seemed to be torn out of a pillar of golden light, piercing right through the sea of fire.
“Your ability is good!” Naruto laughed, his body igniting with a wave of red spiritual pressure.
“Eight Gate Transportation Armor – Change!” With a stern shout, an unspeakable amount of spirit pressure erupted.
“Bang.” Sasuke’s abdomen instantly received a heavy blow, his eyes widened, stomach liquid spewed out of his mouth, and he flew backwards at a much faster speed as in a large mountain.
But surrounded by lightning, his form almost instantly crossed the distance from Naruto and punched him.
“Eh? Taking that kind of pounding doesn’t even seem to do anything, neither the power nor the speed has changed either?” Naruto dodged with ease as he wondered, his right hand manifesting a flowing blade of fire that cut hard towards Sasuke.
The fire dragon coalesced in it, directly engulfing Sasuke.
“Ka ka ka ka.” Piercing lightning light appeared, a thunder dragon exploded from Sasuke’s hand, canceling out the fire dragon.
“Bang.” Sasuke punched Naruto straight in the face.
“Naruto, I’m stronger now!!!” His figure kept jumping and flashing through space, and when the speed was extreme, even the Flying Raikage was no better.
Between the flashes, countless punches and kicks landed on Naruto.
Naruto was violently beaten in space like a sandbag.
“I want to thank you for making me realize the existence of the Uchiha, but I don’t want to become a Shinigami, I want to get out of my own way, and I can’t abandon my human identity!!!” Between his words, Sasuke punched Naruto high into the air and gathered his hands together as waves of yellow energy coalesced and exploded towards Naruto.
“Humans and Shinigami can have a delicate balance, can’t they?”
“Boom.” Naruto was enveloped in the explosion, yet when it ended, it revealed an unharmed Naruto.
The Zanpakuto in his hand glowed with a shimmering light.
Mirror Water Moon’s Bankai was able to immunize or distort and deflect all damage, and could even reverse life and death, except that this ability could not be used continuously.
“There is certainly a balance between humans and Shinigami.”
“Taking over the Psychic Realm and the Shinobi Realm is all part of my plan, and the Shizukage itself exists to dominate everything.” Between words, Naruto grabbed Sasuke by the collar and flung him to the ground.
The Cthulhu Drop erupted from his hands, constantly bombarding the area Sasuke was in.
“This world is completely corrupted, too much darkness exists in the Shinobi world in the Shinobi villages, the wars never stop, the only way to change things is to overthrow them, and the Psychic Realm is even more dominated by the Immortals, who spy on the Shinobi world, and use prophecies to push the dark tides within the Shinobi world.”
“There is more darkness in this world than you can imagine, Sasuke.”
“Your change is certainly touching, but the justice you practice is too small, too small to change even one Shinobi village.” Naruto walked over to Sasuke and grabbed him out of the pit with one hand.
“Ahem.” Sasuke coughed frantically as his body’s spiritual pressure erupted to get away from Naruto and landed a succession of heavy punches.
“What? Did I hit a sore spot?” Naruto’s entire body was shrouded in flames, and with the Eight Gates of Evil at full power, his strength and speed had crushed Sasuke.
Naruto met him with a punch, and when the two fists met, Sasuke flew backwards like a cannonball.
“So answer me, what have you done now? Sheltered a group of people? Or a village? What you’ve done is too small, and what you’ve influenced is too small.” Naruto made no secret of his opposition to what Sasuke was doing in his eyes.
“With great power comes great responsibility.” He kicked Sasuke high into the air, then appeared above in an instant, his hands bursting into endless fire once more.
“Cowering in a small village, is this your justice?”
“This shouldn’t be your life, with powers like this, you should radiate your so-called justice to the entire Shinobi world.” Endless flames engulfed Sasuke.
The air was filled with the smell and hiss of burning.
Sasuke lay helplessly in the middle of the pit, his eyes dazed.
Naruto hadn’t put down a killing blow, and an attack like that wouldn’t have been able to help Sasuke.
But Sasuke had no fight left in him.
To be precise, Naruto’s words all struck a chord with him.
Possessing great power, Naruto had established the Shizuriken, influencing the Jodo, Shinobi, and Psychic Realms.
Sasuke, who also possessed great strength, was cowering within his village, like a twisted child.
“I want peace, I hate war.” The innocent words of the village children and the simple smiles of the young and strong came to Sasuke’s mind.
For Sasuke, justice was to protect those he had to protect, and to draw his sword when he met injustice.
But.
As Naruto said, this is too limiting.
Sasuke wanted true peace for more people, but couldn’t think of the countermeasures that should have been in place.
“Yeah, this shouldn’t be my whole life.” Sasuke muttered as he lay in the pit, his blonde hair turning back to black.
His eyes were a bit confused as he looked over to Naruto, the boy who had been very confident since they met had a bright and determined gaze at the moment.
“Come help me, Sasuke, become the master of the Shinobi world, become the rule maker, only by setting absolute rules can peace truly come.”
“The true Ten-Tailed Human Pillar Project is to create the Ten Tails, to create the Infinite Other Heavenly Gods, and to implant the idea of an aversion to war into the minds of all.” Naruto held out his hand to Sasuke, impassioned.
“Infinite Other Heavenly Gods! So this is your plan.” A flash of realization flashed through Sasuke’s eyes.
Everything was strung together.
Sure enough, Naruto was as uninterested in destroying the Shinobi world as she thought.
What he wanted to do was to use the Infinite Other Heavenly Gods to change the will of mankind.
Such a plan was certainly grand, but ……
Sasuke quietly clenched his fists.
“Humans, they should be free, Naruto.” He looked stubbornly at Naruto.
“Humans have unlimited potential in themselves, unlimited don’t Tenshin may bring true peace, but at the same time it will wear down their potential, I don’t really agree with you on the notion that humans have goodness and hope in their hearts even though they’ve been at constant war.”
Naruto shook his head with a disdainful expression.
“In order to defeat Shizukage, Konoha desecrated the souls of the dead, and in order to defeat Shizukage, the shinobi villages banded together. Because they knew that Shizuru-tei would attract a constant stream of talent, and sooner or later, it would become the heart of the people.”
“Freedom is valuable, but freedom breeds greed, and greed induces war. Do you think that every time the Silent Spirit Court will have a strong person across the ages to suppress this?”
“Even if there were, how many years, centuries, millennia would it last?”
“That’s what we live for, isn’t it?” Sasuke said.
“The strong exist not just for shelter, but for deterrence, and as long as we keep getting stronger and pushing the boundaries of humanity, peace will last.”
“Give up on the Infinite Don’t Be Tenshin program, Naruto, I’m willing to join the Shizukage and take charge of the Shinobi world, and I promise you that I won’t let anyone go and break the peace.”
Looking at the resolute Sasuke, Naruto’s eyes couldn’t help but drift off.
The Sasuke he remembered had changed completely.
The old Sasuke was naive and childish.
The Sasuke of today is mature and has the realization to take responsibility.
“Good, in that case, prove to me your determination and ability.” Naruto nodded and looked at Sasuke, “That way I will feel comfortable handing over the Shinobi world to you, the future master of the Shinobi world.”
