«16» FATHER AND CHILD

@Masashi Kishimoto

"KURAMA-SAN.." Yin started as she kicked the water flowing on the ground. The Fox grunted in annoyance as he was evaporating red.

"How long are we gonna stay here? Seems like Inomi is taking too long." She muttered and laid down on the floor. The Nine-Tails hummed in amusement.

"You'll just have to wait, Your Other Half would take such time to get there without the Help of That Uchiha." He explained while his ears twitched, he hated the sound of Naruto screaming while getting extracted.

The Yin stared at her hands, it started to melt as she smirk. "I won't be here for too long, Yang would be very happy to keep you company until Naruto gets killed."

The Fox growled in annoyance, making her laugh in amusement. "I'm just kidding, besides you can't kill me~ I'm just a petty soul who's keeping you away from that Otsutsuki."

"Whatever..." He muttered, letting himself coated with mint as the Spirit laid her body on him.

-Inomi has two Mystical Creatures separated on each side, Yin and Yang. Two Souls that were formed as one to protect the ones she was loyal with.

As the old Philosophy says; There's good in evil and bad in Good. You may wonder why she sent her Yin spirit to Naruto's Chakra rather than her own Sensei?

Well that could be a great Mystery, the Yamanaka has her own ways of thinking. Even if takes a small risk.

Sasuke still lives in the Yang Spirit, he despises it much but he couldn't refuse the fact that this Other spirit was rather helpful in times of needs.

Including his fight with Shiki Otsutsuki.

SLASH

"Huh?..." The Otsutsuki looked up to the sky. He widened his eyes to see the branch of the tree, cut off in half.

Unfortunately, Darui failed to hit the Otsutsuki with his weapon as he plunged his attack to 'cut' him in half.

Momoshiki gritted his teeth in anger. "These Guys!"

The Branch that Naruto was tied in fell, Boruto approached it swiftly as he shouted for his Father. "Dad!"

He immediately cut the roots with his kunai as Naruto was set free, exhausted by the extraction.

Sasuke caught the Uzumaki on time as they landed safely on the ground, followed by Inomi who was holding Naruto tight.

She placed her hands on his back, her hands glowing mint. The Hokage felt relieved to feel his Body a little lighter than before, even if he didn't need the Yamanaka's chakra.

"You okay dad?!" Boruto asked in worry, looking at his dad who was tired. Naruto turned to stare at him back. "Boruto! What are you doi--"

He observed his Son's figure before he brightened up in realization. "Your outfit.."

"A lot happened and well... In short, he became a Shinobi." Sasuke stated as Naruto chuckled with a smirk painted on his face.

"Haha... It feels like I'm staring at my own Shadow clone." He stated, chuckling again before giving Boruto a warm smile.

Boruto grinned at him back as he tugged on his Jacket. "Atleast it makes me look a little cooler right?"

Inomi smiled, taking off her hands as her process of replenishing Naruto's energy was complete. She loves their relationship growing bit by bit.

"Boruto uh... About earlier.." Naruto started, staring at the ground. "I'm sorry."

Boruto was shock to hear that from his father. After all, he was the one who's supposed to be apologizing from his mistakes.

"From now on--"

"Things are fine the way they are!" The Little Uzumaki interrupted his sentence. Naruto raised his eyebrows in confusion.

"Just whenever you have time, tell me about your past instead of lecturing me." Boruto stated with a smile, offering a hand to Naruto.

He smiled as he gladly took his hand. "Sure."

"Sasuke-San how long are we gonna fight this big guy?!" Inomi yelled as she clashed her katana towards Shiki's big weapon. She gasped when she felt her hair untying, just as her hair tie fell off.

"As long as we take him down without getting near Momoshiki." Sasuke ordered, blocking the attack away from Inomi.

The Yamanaka gulped in frustration, looking left to right. He was really fast in her point of view. "If only I had the Sharingan.."

CRASH.

Inomi grunted as she felt herself crash near the tree, breaking the wood behind her.

Sasuke widened his eyes in anger. "Inomi!"

Just as he reached out for her, the Otsutsuki threw his fist at him, The Uchiha blocked it's attack, but failed as Shiki forced himself to push him near the Tree, crashing like how Inomi did.

The Otsutsuki charged towards his weakened state, Sasuke was clenching on his weapon. Luckily, The Mizukage came in time to block his attack.

The Kages teamed up to corner the Big Otsutsuki they're against with.

Sasuke went towards him and raised his arm. "CHIDORI!"

Shiki screeched in pain as he felt lightning striking him hard. He landed harshly on the ground.

"Bloody Mist Sword Technique: Bone Mutilation!" Chojuro yelled, sending spikes towards the Otsutsuki.

"Tsuchikage!"

"On it!"

Kurotsuchi weaved hand signs and prepared her breathe. "Lava Style: Ash Stone Sealing Jutsu!"

The Hard soil wrapped around Shiki and hugged him tight, the soil soon turned into stone, sealing him frozen.

"Leave this guy to us! You go deal with the other one!" She yelled towards the Uchiha who nodded at her.

"Inomi..." He whispered under his breathe and widened his eyes once more. He turned to his right direction, seeing Inomi who was about to fall.

"INOMI!"

"Sorry I'm late!" Naruto said and jumped towards Momoshiki's direction. Boruto caught the falling Yamanaka who was grunting in pain.

Sasuke sighed in relief to see her safe in The Uzumaki's arms. "Now, she needs to wake up..."

"Dad wait!"

"What is it Boruto?"

"You can't use Ninjutsu against him!" Boruto informed his father, as he remembered that he usually absorbs any huge amount of chakra."What?!"

"He can absorb any Jutsus, and use it to fire back at us... Just like Boruto when he was using the Scientific Ninja tool." Inomi explained after she had woken up from her sleep, repeating what Sasuke said.

"Well that makes it easy." Gaara scoffed and crossed his arms, completely unamused.

"We proceed with any Jutsus, and take you down brutally.." The Raikage warned the Otsutsuki who was lying weak on the wood, completely cornered by the Kages.

"Ah, I see! So that's the deal!" Naruto exclaimed as he landed on a higher branch above the others.

Inomi got off from Boruto's arms and silently thanked him. "Are you sure you're okay Sensei?"

"It's a simple back ache, not that I could handle." She smirked and stretched her back, before cracking her knuckles. "Simple Taijutsu could take him down, maybe?"

"We've taken down your friend already, best if you could surrender if I were you." Sasuke stated, placing his katana back on his hip.

Momoshiki looked at Naruto and his eyes drifted towards Boruto. "Is that your kid, fox?"

He activated his Byakugan and chuckled. "I see. It seems you're burdened with a rather interesting fate."

"What a pity fox. That you possess so much power, yet not the Jutsu you could pass it down to the next generation." He continued, as if he was scheming something.

"What the heck are you talking about?!" Boruto gritted his teeth.

"Stay out of this Boruto!" Naruto warned him, which kept his lips sealed into a thin line. Inomi gulped, thinking of what could happen next.

Just on cue, the trapped Otsutsuki ascended towards Momoshiki as the ash seal broke. He warped into a weird-looking fruit.

Inomi widened her eyes in realization. "No way.."

"Sasuke-San!" She yelled at her Sensei who prepared his Katana. The Otsutsuki began to eat the fruit furiously. He was eating his own comrade?!.....

Just as Sasuke began to charged towards the Otsutsuki's neck. He laughed and lazily looked at the Uchiha.

"Too late."

BOOM.

Smoke covered the whole area, as a dark silhouette came out of the Mess. There, they all saw Momoshiki, completely different from before.

Black marks covered his body and his horns grew longer than before. His face was painted with an evil smirk.

"Fox... You're next!"
