You can take care of the other matters.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go ahead,\" Orochimaru replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two young men made their way to the roof of the Hokage residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto, with tears still glistening in his eyes, suddenly swung his fist toward Sasuke’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his sneak attack failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, Sasuke struck back with a clean punch to the gut, dropping Naruto to his knees and sending him into a fit of retching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ugh... Why are you so cruel?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Otherwise, how would you snap out of it, idiot?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke rolled his eyes, his tone eerily similar to the old days when they were teammates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long silence, Naruto slowly sat up, speaking in a low voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you helping Orochimaru? I thought you wanted revenge... and defected from the village.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talking about the past—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke sat beside him, gazing up at the sky with a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Uchiha Massacre... from beginning to end, it was orchestrated by the Third Hokage and Danzo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even with Obito’s involvement, that fact doesn’t change.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s why I chose to side with Orochimaru.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because if I dedicate myself to spreading the divine doctrine... the gods can bring my dead parents back to life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto’s eyes widened in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Resurrect...?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could really be brought back?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you... want to resurrect your parents too?\" Sasuke asked quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto stayed silent for a long while. Then, finally, he nodded—hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted a home too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right,\" Sasuke said. \"Let’s work together. The Land of Earth is the last holdout. Soon, the entire ninja world will follow the teachings of the Eternal God.
