Chapter 58C58

Naruto lost so much that when he regained it all, it made people wonder if it was just a beautiful dream created by magic.

His father returned from the underworld to fight alongside him;

His best friend, whom he had once parted ways with and could never win back, is now standing beside him.

They were brought back to life by him, whom he had taken for granted as his own elder brother and sister...

Even when Kana pushed him away with a scabbard pressed against his shoulder, his excitement remained undiminished. "Kana-nee!!!"

He turned around and excitedly introduced her to Minato, "This is the older sister I told you about who's been so good to me."

Minato's chakra appeared when Naruto's Nine-Tails seal was about to go out of control—so Naruto was referring to her back then.

"Thank you." Minato sincerely thanked the person who brought him warmth during Naruto's childhood when he was ostracized.

"No, not at all." To be honest, Naruto's current appearance is entirely due to his kindness. Kana remained indifferent, subtly avoiding Minato's bow—accepting merits that don't belong to you will bring you great trouble.

"Kana, you're still alive." Hiashi breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought that Neji's return was already a rare blessing from heaven for the Hyuga clan, but there was an even bigger surprise.

Kana walked over to Neji, looked him up and down, and found that it was just a superficial injury and not too serious, so she was relieved.

Only then did they have the mind to pay attention to the main clan's nonsense about "showing them the strength of Konoha's strongest clan," and they thought, "Then let your main clan go."

"Hinata Kana!"

"It's so noisy."

The shuriken grazed his scalp, shaving off a few strands of hair. Hyuga Sousuke instinctively clutched his head and collapsed to the ground, his previous joy completely replaced by this insubordinate rage. "How dare you?!"

Kana ripped off her headband, revealing her fair and flawless forehead, and flung the remaining cloth across his wrinkled face.

“I have a bad temper.” Kana gave a slight smile, her voice carrying a strange lightness. “If anyone dares to add that disgusting surname before my name again, I’ll kill him.”

impossible! ! !

His facial muscles seemed to die instantly, rendering him unable to make any expression. His gaze was fixed on her face, as if he wanted to burn two holes through it.

He stiffly shifted his gaze and saw Neji beside him also remove the white bandage from his forehead—No! No caged bird! How could that be!

"Neji, with a formidable enemy at hand, we must concentrate." Because they are too weak, they are not worth taking seriously at all.

Kana turned around indifferently, ignoring the person behind her who wouldn't respond no matter how she formed hand seals. "It's just a dog barking, ignore it."

Her gaze shifted to the roaring Ten-Tails, and the two people standing on it—two shameless scoundrels who bullied children while the adults were away.

The wind whistled past her ears and receded. Kana lightly touched a water droplet with her toes, levitating high in the air. A bolt of lightning the size of a relic was formed in her palm with a flick of her wrist and suddenly disappeared into the thick clouds.

The next second, a pale white bolt of lightning suddenly cleaved the dark sky. It wasn't like a line, but more like a gigantic tree with jagged branches, instantly ignited, tearing the entire sky into pieces. Immediately following was a series of thunderclaps that shook the very core, as if the enormous curtain of the sky had been ripped apart by a god's bare hands. The sound didn't just come from above, but rather pressed in from all directions, filling the ears.

Yumi asked her why she insisted on getting involved in this war, and there was one reason she didn't tell her.

If a sword is so powerful that people have to be wary of it, and the scabbard is not in their hands, they would rather break it.

So she kept enduring and hiding—she never had a chance to fight freely and unleash her full potential.

She stood high in the sky, with thunder roaring behind her, looking down at the earth. Even the enormous ten-tailed creature seemed somewhat insignificant.

Lightning condensed into tangible, boiling giant arrows, scorching and distorting space, revealing the void beneath, as they tore through the air and descended from the sky.

"Lightning Release: Heavenly Punishment".

Kana doesn't have Naruto's innate leadership qualities that allow him to mobilize everyone, nor is she good at using high-sounding reasons like love and hope to talk her way out of trouble.

Faced with the demoralized Allied Shinobi Forces, she chose the most direct approach: unleash her ultimate attack.

Use strong, direct tactics to wake these people up and rekindle their confidence and fighting spirit.

"Kana-nee... she's so strong..." Naruto realized then how much she had held back against him before. He sidled up to Neji and whispered, "I'll never make her angry again."

Hiashi managed to steady himself amidst the shockwave from the powerful lightning strike, raised his head, and gazed at the figure condensed into a dot in the distance. Could someone really do that?

In a daze, when he felt a sense of desolation as he directly experienced the gap in strength, he felt a sense of relief that he shouldn't have as a member of the main family—thankfully, such a dazzling person was not a caged bird.

The Ten-Tails, though lacking the consciousness of a higher being, still possessed the nerves to feel pain. Pierced through its hands and feet by lightning arrows and pinned to the ground, it could not move and let out a long, howling roar.

Kana dodged Obito Uchiha's attack and returned to the ground.

No further explanation is needed.

Naruto clasped his hands in a fist salute, his golden cloak billowing out. "Here we go, everyone."

That was an extremely fierce and spectacular battle.

Everyone puts aside their identities, positions, and past grudges, and stands together to challenge a colossal beast never before seen, and two monsters whose strength is unfathomable.

But what is most precious about humankind is courage.

True courage is not the absence of fear, but the ability to face fear, to transform it into one's own, and to overcome it. The hymn of humanity is the hymn of courage.

The brave warriors who emerged in that battle will surely leave a significant mark on history.

Thanks to Tobirama and Minato's instantaneous return technique, Obito, who was hit head-on by Naruto and Sasuke's combined attack, only suffered minor injuries. He claimed that he had already obtained the power of the Sage of Six Paths, and that ninjutsu was no longer effective against him.

In the blink of an eye, Tobirama Senju figured it out: "Then use the Yin-Yang Escape Technique."

Although it was just based on intuition, Naruto, who was able to accurately pinpoint the oddities and perfectly coordinate with him to deliver a blow to Obito Uchiha, was also a genius-level idiot. This long-lost feeling was almost like fighting alongside his older brother.

Kana couldn't help but marvel at how some people's brains were so much better than others'.

"Neji," unlike the Fourth Hokage and Naruto's dazzling Sage Mode, Kana's Sage Mode only had a slight glow on her skin and a touch of pink around her eyes. "You summon Aoandon."

Like the □□ clan, the Bluebird clan also uses magic.

Neji hesitated for a moment, "But it's your summoning beast."

"When it responded to your reverse psychic technique, it had already acknowledged you. Go."

The wind gathers beneath the wings, creating a powerful lift, and the clouds become islands that can be trodden upon at will. The bluebird spreads its wings, trailing its long white tail, raises its head, and lets out a clear cry.

Neji didn't feel like it was real when the mark on his forehead was wiped off; he still often returned to the nightmare of the caged bird.

But at this moment, as he stood against the wind atop the bluebird, he felt the invisible steel rope binding him break inch by inch, and the clear wind flowed freely through his suddenly open chest.

The bluebird stirred up a gust of wind, lifting the headband that had fallen to the ground. Kana's gaze followed the direction it flew away, and she looked up to see the fledgling bird that had once clung to her and refused to let go now soaring in the sky.

Beneath the flying clouds and above the gentle breeze, there are free birds.

Fly!
