Konoha: Naruto returns from Boruto: Next Generations

After cleaning up the battlefield, Naruto led Orochimaru, Sasuke and Shisui to the sealed place. "You stay outside and guard well." Orochimaru ordered his four men. "Yes, Lord Orochimaru!" The four Oto-nin used their instant body to rush up the rock wall, find a bush and hide. Entering from the entrance, there is a desolate basin, in the middle of which stands four stone tablets. On the stone tablets, obscure sealing techniques are engraved. Naruto looked at Sasuke and Shisui on the side, then looked at Orochimaru on the other side, and asked: "Orochimaru, how is your research on the sealing technique?"

Orochimaru took a step forward.

He carefully studied the sealing symbols and murmured: "This sealing technique is to seal the space, and it is a combined ninjutsu. Sorry, Naruto-kun, I'm not very good at it."

Orochimaru stepped back and shook his head.

Naruto sighed.

He was about to turn around and ask Sasuke for his opinion.

The next moment.

A flash of purple light suddenly flashed.

"Boom!"

Sasuke directly activated the initial form of Susanoo.

As the huge purple fist swung out, the stone tablet exploded instantly and turned into misty smoke.

"Ahem——"

Everyone retreated.

In the smoke and dust rising into the sky, Naruto saw the sealing technique also dissipated.

"This..."

Naruto and Shisui looked dazed.

Orochimaru smiled.

This method is really Sasuke-like.

"Isn't that enough?"

Sasuke glanced at Naruto and said calmly.

"All sealing techniques have carriers. Once the carrier is destroyed, even the strongest sealing techniques will be like garbage."

Naruto thought about it, and finally gave a thumbs up and said, "That makes sense."

Smoke and dust fell down, and when the smoke and dust dissipated, a downward tunnel entrance appeared in the center of the original seal.

"Let's go!"

Naruto entered first, followed by Sasuke, and the others followed in one after another.

"Fire Style: Fire Lantern!"

Sasuke raised his sword finger and released his chakra.

In the air above his fingertips, a flame suddenly appeared, and the flame gradually grew larger and quickly expanded into the shape of a lantern.

Under the illumination of the fire lantern, the situation underground was clearly visible at this moment.

"I didn't expect that Sasuke-kun would be so proficient in fire escape."

Orochimaru crossed his arms and smiled.

Even Shisui beside him was surprised.

Normally, ninjas use hand seals to control the circulation of chakra in their bodies and use various ninjutsu, illusions or physical techniques, which are called "jutsu".

In order to cooperate with the use of various techniques, Indra, the child of the Six Paths Sage, once created twelve basic hand seals, which were circulated in the ninja world, which is now commonly used "hand seals".

However, for ninjas who use certain ninjutsu or are particularly proficient in certain changes in nature, they can use hand seals without the need for hand seals, and even perform ninjutsu instantly.

Orochimaru didn't expect that Sasuke had been familiar with his current body and mastered the nature of fire attributes so proficiently in just a few days after returning.

This did surprise him a little.

Sasuke and Naruto walked side by side.

Under the light of the fire, the obscure and difficult-to-understand techniques embroidered on the walls of the cave were gradually dissipating.

When they reached the deepest part, they found a very spacious cave. At the top of the cave, a ray of light shone in, projecting directly to the center of the cave.

At this moment.

The spell on the wall began to dissipate and spread toward the ground, and gradually dissipated, and finally gathered at the center of the light, and disappeared completely.

"Underground!"

Sasuke said.

"Orochimaru, please."

Naruto currently does not know how to use earth escape, so he can only ask Orochimaru, who is more knowledgeable among the group.

"Yes."

Orochimaru nodded.

He walked up and gently pressed one hand on the ground in the center of the light.

"Earth escape, earth flow cut!"

Orochimaru's chakra flowed into the ground, and he controlled the force.

With his palm as the center, the ground turned outward and flowed in all directions.

Soon.

A pit deeper than a person's height appeared on the ground. In the pit, a black-haired girl was leaning against a cage, hugging her knees and curled up inside.

Is that her?

This is the first time Sasuke and Shisui have seen Uchiha Hikaru.

It can be said that if they only consider age, they should call Uchiha Hikaru the ancestor.

She is thin and small.

It was obvious that she was malnourished.

The girl was wearing a black, shabby outfit, and her black hair fell to her neck like a knife-like axe, like a black flame.

Realizing that the seal on her body had been lifted, the air around her became fresher, and the girl trembled slightly and slowly raised her head.

Her eyes revealed a clear confusion.

"Breathing of the Kasumi, Second Form: Yae Kasumi!"

Naruto quickly drew out his Zanpakutō and swung out eight sharp slashes at lightning speed.

The sword energy arrived first, and Naruto put away the sword.

The next moment.

With a "click", the cage that imprisoned Uchiha Hikaru broke into pieces and lost its support, and scattered all over the ground.

"Uchiha Hikaru, from today on, you are free again."

Naruto stretched out his hand, with a reassuring and warm smile on his face.

Uchiha Hikaru looked up, and under the light of the fire, a pretty face appeared in front of everyone.

"Who are you...? Why? Why do you want to let me out?"

Uchiha Hikaru swept across everyone's face, and finally fixed her eyes on Naruto. Her voice was soft and gentle, like the birdsong in the morning.

"We are the ones who will take you home. As for letting you go, it's because we are partners!"

Naruto's face bloomed with a warm smile, and that warm smile spread from his pupils, which made people feel at ease.

He said this not only for the present, but also for the future Boruto.

Please "urge for more updates" and "generate electricity with love". Thank you all for your stepfathers and stepmothers!
