Konoha was a chilling scene of strewn debris and dismembered limbs. The air was heavy with the scent of blood, and an eerie silence blanketed the battlefield.

Looking at Sasuke Uchiha standing alone, he appeared like a menacing demon. His eyes scanned around at all the remaining shinobi. His sword dripped with the blood of many Konoha, Anbu, and Shinobi.

14-year-old Sasuke Uchiha understood that revenge could not restore what he had lost. Even if he succeeded, he would gain nothing. Yet, there was a part of him that was drawn towards the abyss of vengeance.

This was a moment where he could not be soft-hearted for a single second.

As Sasuke prepared to finish off everyone on the battlefield to pursue his next target, a sudden shift caught his attention. The air crackled with energy, and a familiar presence approached.

Turning his gaze, Sasuke's eyes widened in surprise as he saw Naruto. Covered in the swirling chakra of the Nine-Tails, Naruto's face was a mixture of determination and regret.

Watching Naruto appear in front of them, all the Shinobi finally had a relief expression, believing that with the power of the Nine-Tails they could kill Sasuke.

Naruto approached him, his heart burdened with sorrow. "I wish you could let go of your hatred, Sasuke," Naruto said softly. Driven by a yearning for peace and understanding, Naruto declared, "This ends here." His voice was tinged with regret.

The ninjas of the Hidden Leaf began to surround Sasuke, who braced himself for the inevitable. "It doesn't have to end this way," Sasuke murmured to himself. Releasing a massive surge of lightning chakra, Sasuke unleashed a large-scale thunder jutsu.

As thunder roared and lightning crackled around him, spreading outward in a devastating wave, it arced across the battlefield, striking down the approaching Shinobi with ruthless precision. Bodies fell to the ground, twitching from the residual shocks.

Naruto remained standing, his form protected by the swirling chakra of the Nine-Tails. Realizing what just happened, his face was filled with rage.

Naruto gritted his teeth, preparing his Rasengan. Combining his Kurama Mode and inexhaustible chakra, Naruto launched an attack on Sasuke.

Sasuke tried to match Naruto's every move, empowered by the Nine-Tails, but Naruto shattered Sasuke's Susanoo with his Rasengan, extinguished Sasuke's fire style with his Wind Style: Rasen shuriken (which was opposite to common sense), as Naruto blocked Sasuke's Chidori and dodged Sasuke's Kirin, and countered Sasuke's Indra's Arrow with his Six Paths: Ultra-Big Ball Rasen shuriken.

As the battle raged on, Sasuke's vision began to blur. Eventually, Sasuke fell to his knees.

From a distance, the shadows of the Hidden Leaf ninjas closed in. He was barely able to stand, exhausted and defeated.

Naruto approached him, his heart heavy with sorrow. "Let me end your pain and hatred, Sasuke," Naruto said softly.

Sasuke knew he was running out of time. He could feel his chakra dwindling, his wounds bleeding. Watching everything with blurred vision, not even for a second did he regret not following the original Sasuke's footsteps. He wasn't some random person who suddenly occupied his body, he was born as Sasuke.

The moment he awakened his memories of his previous life at the age of nine, Sasuke worked tirelessly to exact his revenge. These memories made him realize that his enemies were not just his brother, but also the high-ranking members of Konoha and all the clans supporting the third generation.

Sasuke's memories flooded his mind, his thoughts were filled with the bitter realization that changing one's fate was a daunting task, even for someone who had crossed time.

As he recalled all the life events, a wry smile touched Sasuke's lips for he still held an ace up his sleeve. In hopes of getting his revenge, he activated his Mangekyou Sharingan, which granted him control over time and the ability to bend reality.

The moment Sasuke activated his Mangekyou Sharingan, an unexpected event occurred. Before he could fully restore his injuries, he felt a sharp pain - he had been pierced from behind. The sudden attack caught him off guard, disrupting his concentration. Looking at the Black Rod, he realized it was from the Sage of Six Paths. His body started to dissolve, and he was trying to use Mangekyou ability to reverse everything unfortunately his powers were not enough to offset the effect of Black Rod.
