Chereads / Boruto: Final Shinobi Era / Chapter 2 - 2. Fusion

Chapter 2 - 2. Fusion

In the peaceful Leaf Village, the sun rose high, casting warm rays over the homes and streets. Boruto Uzumaki, always eager for adventure, was enjoying a sunny afternoon with his friends Sarada Uchiha and Mitsuki. They practiced their jutsu, laughing and training together. Life in the forest was calm, but Boruto felt a strange energy stirring in the air. 

 

Suddenly, the sky darkened, and a chilling wind swept through the village. Ten Tails clones appeared, each one larger and more menacing than the last. They charged into the streets, causing panic among the villagers. Boruto's instincts kicked in. "We need to protect the village!" he shouted to his friends. 

 

The Ten Tails clones called out for Code, a figure known for his power and ambition. Code! Come to us! We need your strength! The voice echoed ominously, resonating fear into the hearts of many. Boruto knew Code was no friend of theirs. He clenched his fists, determination fueling his resolve. 

 

When Code arrived, he had a wild glint in his eyes. "Why should I help you?" he asked the clones, amusement dancing on his face. Boruto stepped forward. "Don't do this, Code! You don't understand the danger these clones bring!" But Code only laughed, brushing away Boruto's warning. "I'll do what I want, kid." 

 

Tension filled the air. Boruto knew he had to act fast. Drawing from his deepest reserves, he began to gather chakra. "Rasengan Uzuhiko!" he called out. This jutsu was special—powered by the rotation of the planet itself. The swirling energy began to form in his hands, glowing brightly with power. Code, taken aback, saw the serious look on Boruto's face for the first time. 

 

Seeing the tremendous force Boruto was gathering, the Ten Tails clones prepared to counterattack. But before they could move, Boruto unleashed his jutsu. The Rasengan shot forward with incredible speed, engulfing the nearest clone. It spun and twirled, overpowering the clone, who began to dissolve as if caught in a whirlwind. Boruto felt a surge of satisfaction. "That should hold them for a while!" he thought. 

 

But Code quickly took to the skies, escaping Boruto's attack. Before he could fly far, Kawaki, Boruto's ally and friend, caught up to him. "Code! You can't just leave! What about Kurama? Will you bring him back?" Kawaki called, hoping to reason with Code. 

 

The Ten Tails clones, looming around them like dark shadows, responded with a chilling promise. "We will revive Kurama! Join us, and witness true power!" 

 

This new twist sparked something in Kawaki. "If they can bring back Kurama, maybe we should help Code," he thought. Realizing the gravity of the situation, he decided to help Code get closer to the clones. 

 

As they all gathered, an unexpected phenomenon occurred. The Ten Tails clones began to fuse together into a colossal figure, pulsing with dark energy. A bright aura filled the area, and fear gripped Boruto's heart. "We can't let this happen!" he yelled. 

 

Without hesitation, Boruto activated his dojutsu, quickly teleporting Sarada, Mitsuki, and himself to a hidden base he created. "We need to regroup! This new Ootsutsuki is going to be dangerous, stronger than anything we've faced before!" he explained, urgency in his voice. 

 

Sarada's eyes widened. "What do we do now, Boruto?" she asked, her tone serious. "We prepare. We find a way to stop them!" Mitsuki added calmly, ready to support his friend. 

 

But just as Boruto began to strategize, a familiar figure appeared before them. It was Momoshiki, the Ootsutsuki they had encountered before. Time stood still as he stared down at Boruto, his expression inscrutable. 

 

"Why are you here?" Boruto demanded, his heart racing.
