Naruto: End of the Shinobi World

Rip—!

The Fifth Kazekage, Gaara, along with the automatic sand defense surrounding his body, was torn cleanly in half by an overwhelmingly brutal force!

In the blink of an eye—

The five ”Kage” who stood at the very pinnacle of the shinobi world were wiped out without even realizing where the attack had come from, or what form it had taken.

They fell helplessly into pools of blood.

In the real shinobi world, time itself seemed to freeze.

The Five Kage—instantly killed.

Like five insects crushed underfoot.

That power—so far beyond comprehension, so utterly despair-inducing—made the souls of everyone who witnessed it tremble in terror.

The Fourth Raikage A, watching the projection of himself being cleaved in half, lost control of his Lightning Release. Chakra raged wildly, blowing his office apart.

Ōnoki. Mei Terumī. Rasa.

Every Kage-level shinobi felt a bone-deep chill.

In the Land of Rain, Nagato stood completely frozen.

All his confidence—his arrogance as a so-called ”god”—was shattered to pieces, leaving behind only boundless confusion.

Was that… also the power of the Rinnegan?

Then why don’t I, its wielder, know anything about it?

Inside the Ninja Academy, Naruto stared at the sky.

The version of himself on the projection—slaughtering the Five Kage like a demon god—combined with the absolute terror in his classmates’ eyes, made it feel as though the entire world was drifting away from him.

Someone has to be messing with me…

This has to be a prank!

Within the projection, the battlefield fell into a momentary standstill after the Kage’s deaths.

The stench of blood filled the shattered terrain.

Five bodies—symbols of the highest authority in the shinobi world—now lay cold and lifeless.

Then, after that brief, suffocating silence—

A howl tore through the air, like a wounded beast screaming in agony.

”NARUTO—!!!”

Sasuke Uchiha clawed his way up from the rubble, his eyes bloodshot, veins bulging.

”I’LL KILL YOU!!!”

The Perfect Susano’o erupted once more from the earth!

This time, it was even more solid than before. Violet chakra burned like raging flames, the massive armored warrior radiating an aura capable of destroying heaven and earth.

At the same time, Amaterasu’s black flames coiled like venomous serpents around Susano’o’s weapon. Through Kagutsuchi, the flames reshaped themselves into countless black arrows.

Sasuke poured everything he had into this strike.

The colossal sword of Susano’o—wrapped in annihilating black fire—split the land apart as it cleaved toward Naruto!

At this moment, Sasuke Uchiha truly stood at the summit of the shinobi world.

His power was enough to strike fear into any enemy.

Yet faced with this nation-toppling onslaught—

Naruto Uzumaki merely hovered in the air, his expression unchanged.

”A pointless struggle.”

He said it softly.

He didn’t even make a dramatic move.

The Shinra Tensei force field distorted slightly—

and the Amaterasu flames, capable of burning everything to nothing, were casually repelled and scattered.

The power of the Asura Path gathered in Naruto’s palm.

An energy cannon surpassing even a Tailed Beast Ball fired instantly, colliding head-on with Susano’o’s greatsword—

BOOM!

The blade shattered.

The remaining shockwave even forced the massive Susano’o to stagger backward.

The illusionary pressure of the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan vanished the instant it touched Naruto’s Rinnegan—like mud sinking into the sea.

The gap in power was absolute.

A chasm no effort could cross.

Every last secret technique, every trump card Sasuke unleashed—ninjutsu, dōjutsu, sheer will—looked pale and laughable before Naruto.

Naruto hadn’t even used the deeper abilities of the Rinnegan.

Just the most basic applications were enough to turn Sasuke’s all-out assault into a farce.

Naruto’s figure blurred.

Ignoring distance itself, he appeared instantly before the crystal core at the forehead of the Perfect Susano’o—the final shield protecting Sasuke’s true body.

Sasuke looked up in horror, meeting Naruto’s icy Rinnegan gaze.

”Sasuke,” Naruto said calmly.

”You’re too weak.”

He raised his hand.

Clenched his fist.

Then threw a single punch.

No dazzling chakra flare.

No earth-shattering spectacle.

Just a plain, unadorned punch.

CRACK—!!!

Before Sasuke’s despairing eyes, the Susano’o’s crystal core—and the massive skeletal head behind it—shattered like glass struck by a sledgehammer!

The overwhelming force punched through and smashed directly into Sasuke’s chest.

”PFF—!”

Sasuke spat out a massive mouthful of blood. The sound of cracking bones echoed clearly.

His chakra collapsed instantly.

The Perfect Susano’o let out a final, soundless wail before disintegrating into countless violet particles.

Sasuke himself fell helplessly from the sky, slamming into the ground with a thunderous impact.

Dust billowed.

As it slowly settled, Sasuke’s barely conscious body was revealed.

He struggled to lift his head, trying to look at the figure descending before him—but his vision was already fading.

In the real shinobi world, there was only silence.

They had lost.

The alliance that gathered the strength of the entire shinobi world—

with Sasuke Uchiha and the Five Kage—

was completely defeated.

Utterly.

Hopelessly.

Sasuke lay amid the ruins, blood soaking the ground beneath him. Even standing had become impossible.

Naruto Uzumaki hovered above him like a god gazing down upon a fallen mortal. His voice was cold, devoid of all warmth.

”Sasuke, you’re not my opponent.

This is the last chance I’m giving you.”

Sasuke coughed up foul blood. With bloodshot eyes, he stared at Naruto and roared with the last of his strength:

”Naruto… someone will stop you!

Destroying the world—

you won’t succeed!”

”Hahahahaha!”

Naruto burst into laughter, as if he’d heard the greatest joke imaginable. His laughter overflowed with ridicule and lonely arrogance.

”Stop me?

The Five Kage are dead. You’re defeated.

Who else is there?

Who else can stop me?!”

Sasuke didn’t answer.

He only glared back—his eyes still burning with unyielding defiance.

Then—

A voice filled with blazing spirit rang out like the dawn breaking through the darkness.

”There’s still me!”

Naruto’s smile faltered slightly. He turned his head in mild surprise.

A man in a tight green jumpsuit, thick eyebrows unmistakable, stood not far away.

His figure wasn’t imposing—but in the smoke and ruins, he radiated an unshakable resolve.

”Oh?” Naruto recognized him, his tone relaxed, even teasing.

”So it’s Guy-sensei. Why rush to your death? Wouldn’t it be better to wait until I finish here and kill you later?”

Might Guy didn’t respond.

His gaze swept over Sasuke—barely standing, covered in wounds—then over the five cold Kage corpses in the distance.

Guy took a deep breath.

He spoke softly, yet his voice was firm as a vow.

”Father… this is the moment.”

”The Eight Gates…”

”The Gate of Death—”

”OPEN!”

BOOOOM—!!!

What erupted was not chakra—

But something far purer.

A blood-red vapor born from burning life itself exploded from Guy’s body like a volcanic eruption!

The sheer pressure blasted away the surrounding smoke in an instant.
