Chapter 882: I, Xu Feng, am willing to call you the strongest!

"Well done, Naruto. You are the hero of the Shinobi World!"

"We survived? Is... is it really true?"

"Damn it, I'm so happy I'm actually going to cry."

"I want to go back and see my wife and kids! I miss them so much!"

"I dreamed of my deceased parents... I miss them so much, but now I must live on well in reality."

The final episode's main content has just begun.

With Madara Uchiha, the one who performed the jutsu, now dead.

The ninjas who were trapped in the Infinite Tsukuyomi wake up one by one.

Everyone crowds around Naruto, the hero of the Shinobi World.

Most people have faces full of excitement and joy, but if one looks closely, one can see a small number of people wearing expressions of regret.

When it comes down to it, reality remains cruel.

If they could, who wouldn't want to escape into a dream world where every wish can be easily fulfilled?

"What should we do about the Tailed Beasts? There's no need for Jinchuriki anymore, right?"

Tsunade looks up at the Tailed Beasts behind her, each one the size of a small mountain.

Naruto smiles and says:

"Let them choose for themselves!"

Four-Tails: "I'm going back to the cave!"

Five-Tails: "I'm going to nest in the forest."

Seven-Tails: "I never expected to regain my freedom. It really feels like a dream."

Nine-Tails is silent for a brief moment, then lifts its gaze to look at Eight-Tails.

"Eight-Tails, what about you?"

"Hmm... I think I'll go back to Killer Bee. I've gotten used to his annoying rapping. What about you, Nine-Tails? What are your plans?"

Hearing this, Nine-Tails lowers its gaze, meeting the smiling eyes of Naruto.

"Hmph~"

Nine-Tails curls the corner of its mouth and snorts; everything is understood without words.

"Then, the only thing left to deal with is the punishment for the criminals of this Shinobi World War. Obito Uchiha is already dead, but..."

Tsunade turns her gaze to the other side.

"I have nothing left to say. But before I die, could you let me go to the Konoha Cemetery? I want to... see the Director one last time."

Kabuto Yakushi raises his hands, indicating his willingness to accept judgment.

Seeing this attitude from him, many people secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

If this guy were to cause trouble, it would be quite a headache.

However, the real trouble is someone else.

Many people swallow hard, quietly shifting their gaze to Sasuke Uchiha.

Although he helped save the Shinobi World alongside Naruto, he infiltrated the Cloud Village as a rogue ninja, attempted to kidnap the Jinchuriki Killer Bee, broke into Konoha to kill two high-level advisors, crashed the Five Kage Summit to attack multiple Kage, and killed the acting Hokage, Danzo Shimura.

These are all unforgivable, grave crimes.

"Too naive, Naruto."

Yet at this moment, Sasuke, who had remained silent until now, finally speaks. A shadow of unprecedented gloom appears on his face as he says in a deep voice:

"We should immediately imprison all the current Five Kage."

As soon as these words are spoken, the expressions of the Allied Shinobi Forces, who had just been freed from the Infinite Tsukuyomi, change drastically.

But Sasuke is not finished.

"And the Tailed Beasts! They must also be placed under my control! I will not allow you to act on your own!"

"What did you say!?"

Hearing this, Nine-Tails suddenly raises a claw to strike at Sasuke.

However, the camera zooms in on Sasuke's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

With just a light glance, the pupils of all nine Tailed Beasts turn into Mangekyou patterns in that instant.

"The Tailed Beasts have all been controlled, with just a single look..."

Seeing this, Tsunade grinds her teeth, "It's just like Madara back in the day!"

Sasuke says coldly:

"During this war, I have learned to perfectly utilize the power of the Eternal Mangekyou. Next, I only need to transplant the power of the Senju to awaken eyes just like Madara's."

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces turn pale.

Kakashi, whose two Mangekyou obtained from Obito have already gone blind, says in a deep voice:

"Sasuke, do you intend to become the second Madara? After the battle you and Naruto just had against him, you should clearly understand his mistakes, right?"

"That's right, but precisely because of that, I understand why Madara failed."

Sasuke says coldly:

"Indulging the Tailed Beasts to leave and letting this world develop on its own will only lead to repeating the mistakes of the First Hokage. Therefore, I will overthrow everything that came before and create a brand-new system."

After a brief pause, Sasuke's tone becomes even colder.

"Concentrating all power in one person."

"I will solve all problems. Whether it is execution or punishment, I will do it all by myself."

"The one who burns away all the darkness of the world with their own flame and swallows the ashes is the true 'Hokage'."

Audience:...

【Damn it, although I knew there was a nine-in-ten chance Naruto and Sasuke would have to fight in the final episode, I didn't expect Sasuke to be this sick in the head by the finale.】

【I think this is even worse than the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Isn't this just a dictator?】

【And you're going to solve all the problems? Do you even have the ability to judge right from wrong with that chuunibyou of yours?】

【Hashirama Senju would probably be so angry he'd come back to life. Did I risk my life to save you just so you could pull this kind of crazy stunt?】

【I feel like compared to Madara Uchiha's Infinite Tsukuyomi, Sasuke's method is more like an upgraded version of Nagato's. Anyway, if I had to choose, I'd rather choose the Infinite Tsukuyomi.】

【He doesn't even understand what kind of results a reign of terror will lead to, yet he dares to say he can solve all problems. It's honestly laughable.】

Without any surprise, Sasuke is mocked by everyone.

Xu Feng scratches the side of his face, indicating there is no other way.

If Naruto and Sasuke don't have a fight in the finale, the ending wouldn't be complete.

However, with this premise, Xu Feng still made some modifications...

Making Sasuke not as annoying as he was in the original work.

"Naruto, the only obstacle standing in my way now is you."

Sasuke turns his gaze to Naruto, slowly raising his hand and sneering:

"Don't you feel a sense of destiny? We are both people who inherited the power of the First Hokage."

"As long as I kill you and take your chakra, I can awaken eyes like Madara's and become the new Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, and then rule this world."
