134. After the War [2]

''No! Please don't!'' Black Zetsu cried out after feeling his body being slowly pulled towards Naruto. It looked like an invisible hand grabbed it, dragging it away.

Naruto's eyes scared it to no end. A black abyss that seemed to devour everything and anything.

Even Hagoromo couldn't help but pity Black Zetsu's fate as he saw it was locked by a strange force. Looking towards Naruto, he said: ''Fulfill your promise, reincarnation of Ashura. I won't interfere any longer, now, I will return to the Spiritual Plane.''

'Tch, don't worry, old man. In no time, I'll be scaring you to death even though you're already dead!' Naruto thought to himself with a mischievous smile.

''Hey... What will we do with him? I mean, he's the main culprit of the war with the exception of Black Zetsu. Though he was manipulated, the amount of casualties is just huge.'' Sasuke said with a frown, truth to be told, if not because he knows that Obito is Kakashi's childhood friend... He would instantly kill Obito.

The latter sighed before saying: ''What I did was unforgivable and nothing in the world can revive the countless deaths caused by me. It doesn't matter what you choose, I'll comply and even if you ask me to use my own life as a punishment, I will do it.''

Naruto shook his head slightly before saying: ''You're still Nii-san friend but also my parents' murderer. Dying is a bad punishment, in your lifetime, you'll serve under Uzushiogakure, that's all.''

'Just... that?' Obito thought while furrowing his brows before nodding, he understood that Naruto was making things easier for him. He bent his body down before saying: ''I thank you for your help, Naruto. If this is how you wish me to redeem myself, I'll serve under Uzushiogakure.''

Seeing that, Sasuke and Haku couldn't help but sigh as they also understood Naruto was making things easier. The black-haired youngster sighed once again before he said speechlessly: ''You're weird, Naruto. Anyway, the Infinite Tsukuyomi has been released and now we must calm everyone down, what are you going to do from now on?''

''Hmmm... I guess I'll open Uzushiogakure for anyone that want to live inside it and live leisurely. That reminds me... Do you want to live on Uzushiogakure as well? You and Sakura, you know...?'' Naruto said while giving a sideglance to Sasuke, who thought for a bit before nodding.

Haku smiled before he quickly said: ''Now that I've finished my training, I can go back and live at Uzushiogakure as well, Naruto-sama. I'll be able to help you with everything there!''

Giving Haku thumbs up, Naruto smirked before saying: ''Ey ey ey, your Hyoton has gone a mutation and I know why that is happening. I'll help you understand 'that' energy later, how?''

''It's fine for me.''

Nodding, Naruto's body floated up before he said in a tone that was neither loud nor low, it was just normal. However, his voice seemed to pass through the air and fix itself deep onto the mind of every single person in the world: ''The Infinite Tsukuyomi released by Uchiha Madara released a major threat to the world, the Rabbit Goddess who is also known as Otsutsuki Kaguya. She has been killed by the Nanadaime Uzukage known as Naruto Uzumaki and Uchiha Sasuke.''

''The war has been won!'' Through these last words, cries of victory rang with sorrow yet happiness-filled feelings. Many lost their families in that war and knowing that it has been won at least reassured them that their families had been avenged.

Naruto smirked before his voice was transmitted to them: ''I, Naruto Uzumaki, also announce that Uzushiogakure will be officially opened to anyone who enters it. People who lost their family in the war will have extra care for a specific amount of time, children who can't take care of themselves will be put in our many orphanages.''

With the message transmitted, he stopped talking.

Meanwhile, on the place where Tsunade was put in the Infinite Tsukuyomi, the Fifth Hokage woke up groggily before hearing Naruto's words: ''Good words, brat.''

Due to just waking up from the dream, her body lost balance but before she could fall, someone's hands grabbed her shoulder, supporting her. A man with nicely combed white-colored hair and a good beard said: ''How are you doing, Hime?''

Feeling his warm hands, Tsunade lowered her hand while blushing lightly before weakly punching his shoulders: ''I'm doing just fine. I missed you, Jiraiya.''

At those words, Jiraiya smiled in an intoxicated manner before they flickered away.

Meanwhile, at Naruto's side.

A red-haired young woman with long hair walked along with a purple-haired young woman who also had long hair. They looked towards each other before humping coldly and stopping right in front of Naruto.

Before Naruto could greet them, the two young women pulled him in a warm, enjoyable hug as Sasuke looked towards him enviously. Why couldn't his dear Sakura be so lovingly?! He felt there was no more warmth in the world.

''It has been though for the two of you in this war, Karin... Hinata. I've watched you two against the Wood Statue and I have to admit, so strong!'' Naruto said with a gentle smile as he accepted their warm hug.

Hinata didn't say anything as she just enjoyed his embrace. Karin, however, was bold as she said while enjoying his warm hands on the back of her head: ''Since you think I'm so strong, why don't you reward me, hm? Hm?''

As time passed, Naruto had noticed that the two of them had actually an agreement and he had to say: He felt betrayed! To think he felt so conflicted about his feelings yet they didn't even say anything about it to him.

Lowering his head as his breath reached up to her ears, Naruto muttered in a tone only Karin could hear: ''Aren't you teasing me so much nowadays, Karin? If this is what you wish... Why don't I reward you... at night?''

Needless to say, Karin fainted.

She was a huge pervert and loved to tease Naruto with her words, however... Once Naruto said such things, she immediately fainted as steam came out of her head.

Scratching the back of his head embarrasedly after feeling he gave a critical attack to Karin, Naruto looked towards Hinata. It had been almost two years since he last saw her.

An awkward silence filled the scene before Naruto said embarrassedly: ''Um... It has been a big deal of time since I last saw you, eh, Hinata? Um... Do you want to visit Uzushiogakure or something? You know... Like a date.''

'F*ck. I was so bold a moment ago, how can I act like that? Goddamit.' Naruto cursed himself, differently from Karin, it had been a long time since he last saw Hinata. As such, many emotions swelled up within his heart instantly, causing him to act awkwardly.

''If this is what you want, Naruto-kun...'' Hinata muttered while blushing, instantly intoxicating Naruto. Hinata had matured by quite a lot and the blush just added up to her charm.

After passing through the ANBU, Hinata had developed a natural defense which was her cold expression. Killing was something normal for her after the countless missions the duo of Hokage's disciples passed through.

However, upon meeting Naruto, all defenses she had put up disappeared, only the usual gentle and shy Hinata remained. The blond youngster took Karin's hand, who had already wakened up and Hinata hands before teleporting to Uzushiogakure.

''Life is good, isn't it?'' He muttered, feeling a sense of happiness overwhelming him.
