Naruto: End of the Shinobi World

”Heh… this should’ve happened long ago. Why keep pretending?”

Sakura let out a cold laugh.

”Hiruzen Sarutobi, you’re the most hypocritical person I’ve ever seen.”

She no longer spared the Third Hokage’s ashen face another glance. Instead, she slowly—almost tenderly—lowered her parents’ bodies from her arms and laid them flat upon the shattered, ice-cold ground before her.

Then she straightened.

Her gaze swept across the surrounding forces: ANBU, ROOT operatives, and the Third Hokage standing beside Enma. Her voice was calm—yet within it surged boundless hatred and absolute resolve.

”Since you won’t allow me to take my parents away for burial…”

”Then this place—will be where they rest forever.”

The moment the words fell, she clenched her right fist and slammed it down beside her parents’ bodies!

BOOOOOOM—!!!

The earth let out a tortured roar.

A colossal fissure—dozens of meters deep and several meters wide—ripped open from the point of impact, like a hideous scar carved into the land. Stones and soil blasted skyward, only to be crushed back down by an unseen force.

Before the eyes of all who watched in horror, Sakura gently lifted her parents’ bodies once more and slowly lowered them into the lightless depths of the chasm.

Then she raised her foot and stomped down—almost casually.

Bang!

The earth on both sides of the fissure surged together as if pushed by invisible hands, sealing shut with terrifying precision. Not a crack remained.

Her parents were buried forever beneath this land—

A land soaked in betrayal and blood.

The entire process was over in seconds, so fast that no one could react.

Hiruzen stared at the spot where Sakura had entombed her parents. His face was no longer merely grim—it had turned deathly iron-blue.

He understood now.

From this moment on, Sakura Haruno and Konoha were locked in a feud that would end only in death.

Sakura slowly raised her head.

Her eyes swept over every person present. There was no warmth left within them—only pure killing intent, the desire to erase everything before her.

She lifted her hand and pointed at them all—Hiruzen, Danzo, ANBU, ROOT alike. Her voice seemed to rise from the depths of hell itself, pronouncing judgment:

”Now… I’ll send every one of you on your way.”

”I’ll use your corpses—

to offer sacrifice to my parents!”

The instant her words ended, an aura far more violent and suffocating than before erupted from her small frame. It rolled outward like a tangible shockwave, crushing the air itself!

The battlefield froze.

Murderous intent flooded heaven and earth.

The war—was about to begin.

The Sky Screen felt stretched to its breaking point. The killing aura seemed to leak beyond the image itself, suffocating the entire shinobi world.

Every viewer held their breath, hearts pounding, waiting for the earth-shattering clash to come.

At the same time, the future revealed by this confrontation ignited the fiercest debate the shinobi world had ever seen.

”Danzo is a monster! Forcing parents to die, then still trying to kill their child?!”

”Konoha’s leadership is rotten to the core! This reeks of Hiruzen’s tacit approval—maybe even orchestration! One plays the benevolent face, the other the villain, all to seize secret power and eliminate threats!”

”This is too dark…” someone whispered. ”Will Sakura… die here?”

”It’s hard to say. That’s the Third Hokage, plus elite ANBU and ROOT. No matter how strong she is, she’s still alone…”

”Nonsense!” someone immediately shot back. ”Did you see her strength?! One punch split the earth! She ignores attacks completely! She cultivates a Divine Technique—not chakra at all! You can’t judge her by normal standards! I say she breaks through!”

But then—a more critical question surfaced, instantly shifting the debate:

”Wait. If Sakura survives this… how do you explain the Fourth Great Ninja War from the first Sky Screen? Only Naruto and Sasuke were there. Sakura never appeared.”

”That’s right! With her growth rate and power, how could she be absent from a battle deciding the fate of the world?”

The contradiction plunged many into silence.

Soon, a bold yet disturbingly plausible theory emerged—and rapidly gained traction:

”I get it now. Naruto’s future descent—his talk of destroying the world—was probably triggered when he learned the truth of Sakura’s death!”

”Exactly! He discovers that the Third Hokage he trusted was complicit, that the village he protected was this filthy, and combined with Sasuke’s defection… he finally breaks!”

”That explains everything. Sakura probably died here—or was hunted down soon after. Her death became the final straw that drove Naruto into darkness.”

The fragments shown by the Sky Screen suddenly fit together, forming a grim, coherent future drenched in tragedy.

A genius crushed by Konoha’s darkness—

And from that darkness, a world-ending monster born.

Countless viewers sighed in sorrow. They mourned Sakura’s possible fate—and trembled at the horrifying future awaiting Naruto.

Once again, all eyes fixed on the Sky Screen.

What happened next would not only decide Sakura Haruno’s fate—

but perhaps the fate of the entire world.

And then—

The anomaly struck.

Without warning, an indescribable, absolutely pure light burst forth.

It was not chakra.

It was closer to the concept of severance itself—made manifest.

Across the shinobi world, everyone watching felt their souls brushed by something impossibly sharp. Instinctively, they squeezed their eyes shut as primal terror seized their hearts.

When the light faded and they dared to look again—

The sight froze their blood solid.

Within the Sky Screen, the once forested, heavily guarded area was gone.

Every tree—thick or thin—had been cut cleanly at waist height. Perfectly smooth. The upper halves had vanished entirely, leaving only stump after stump, their cut surfaces eerily pristine.

And more terrifying still—

The ANBU and ROOT operatives who had surrounded Sakura…

All of them were gone.
