Naruto: The Template System

Chapter 167: Return

Battlefield.

"Is this the correct timeline?"

As soon as Kozuki stepped out from the portal, his attention was drawn by the Ten-Tails, and Madara standing on its back looking at him, a bit shocked.

"Kozuki!!!"

As Kozuki was about to release his Observation Haki to confirm, suddenly a loud shout made him unable to do so.

Voice he wanted to hear the voice so much all these years, he finally heard it again.

Kozuki floating in the air immediately sensed the aura of Kurenai.

An expression of excitement, relief appeared on his face as he saw Kurenai in the crowd looking at him with an excited expression on her face.

Roar!!!

Ten-Tails who saw Kozuki floating in front seemed to remember his aura as, in fear, it shot the Huge Bijudama towards Kozuki.

"Watch Out"

"Be careful, Kozuki Kun"

Kurenai, who saw the Bijudama roaring towards Kozuki, reminded him loudly.

Minato and the others who were surprised seeing Kozuki suddenly appearing also reminded him.

Kozuki, who wanted to rush towards Kurenai, sensing the tail beast bomb, stopped.

Boom...

Just as the Bijudama was about to hit Kozuki, a hand imbued with the dark matter was pressed, and colossal wind pressure was released.

Minato and other Shinobi saved themselves from the fierce wind waves, and when it stopped, they saw a scene they could hardly believe.

The Huge Bijudama couldn't move forward because the hand of Kozuki was pressed on it.

"Give it back to you"

Kozuki said while looking towards the Ten-Tails as he punched the Bijudama.

Boom...

Roar!!!

The Ten-Tails roared as fear could be felt from its voice as it tried to move away from the Bijudama coming back towards it.

"Damn... how is this possible?"

Madara, standing on Ten-Tails' back, cursed and immediately jumped, leaving the Ten-Tails.

Boom!!!

Ten-Tails could only watch as the Bijudama hit it, and a massive explosion was set off.

"Be careful!!"

Minato reminded everyone to be wary of the shock waves, seeing the explosion.

But a vast red aura suddenly erupted from Kozuki as the shock waves of the explosion couldn't reach them at all.

Whoosh...

Kozuki floating in the air, suddenly disappeared, and when he appeared, he was already in front of Kurenai, who stood with her students.

"Fortunately, nothing happened to you"

Without giving Kurenai a chance to speak, Kozuki hugged her as he whispered in her ears, happy to see her fine.

"Welcome back"

Kurenai, who wanted to say so much, hearing his words, sighed and tapped his back as she guessed he must have been worried a lot from his tired voice.

"Cough..."

Ino, who stood beside them, coughed, reminding the couple.

Hearing her cough, Kurenai quickly backed off, a bit embarrassed.

"Why do I feel angry?"

All the Shinobi who saw the lovey-dovey couple didn't know why they had the urge to punch Kozuki, who just saved them from the Bijudama.

"How's Renji?"

Kozuki ignored the hateful eyes of single dogs and asked Kurenai since he was worried about his son.

"Don't worry, Rin is taking care of him back at the village"

Kurenai had requested Minato to let Rin stay back at the village to take care of the Renji.

Even if the medical abilities of Rin were needed in the war, for the sake of Kozuki, Minato agreed and let Rin take care of him.

"Good"

A big stone seemed to be lifted from the heart of Kozuki as he sighed in relief.

"Welcome Back, Kozuki Kun"

"Uncle Red Hair"

"Sensei"

At this moment, Minato, along with Naruto, Shisui, and Itachi, appeared beside him and greeted him.

"You sure have grown a lot, Naruto"

Seeing the difference in the height of Naruto from two years ago, Kozuki commented, who scratched the back of his head, a bit embarrassed.

Kakashi, Itachi, Shisui, and everyone who knew Kozuki were happy to see him again.

"His eyes..."

Kozuki, who saw the pattern in the eyes of Sasuke, looked towards Itachi with confusion.

"Is it really fate?"

Kozuki couldn't understand it, he changed the plot so much, but Sasuke still awakened Mangekyo.

A sad expression appeared on the face of Itachi when he heard the question of Kozuki.

"Fugaku San!!"

Shisui standing beside him, just said the name as Kozuki understood everything immediately.

"Don't be sad; today, it will be the end of all conflicts; no one would have to bear the pain of losing their loved ones again"

Kozuki rubbed the head of Itachi, encouraging him as he strode forward, ready to end the era of war.

Every Shinobi on the battlefield heard his words, and determination appeared in their eyes.

Everyone gathered behind him as Kozuki, with his right hand on the hilt of his sword, looked towards Ten-Tails, which had evolved after being hit by Bijudama.
