Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

"Chakra ores?"

The group is surprised to see such a large amount of chakra ores.

"It's even of a very high quality." Minato remarks on the transparency of the ores.

"Where did you get such a large amount of supply?" Tsunade curiously asks him.

"Nothing much! I just excavated some chakra mines in the Land of Silence."

Izuna waves his hand in dismissal.

"Really?! The Daimyo of the Land of Silence allowed you!" Tsunade raises an eyebrow.

"Of course! The people of Land of Silence were silent when I took this ore."

"…"

"Anyway! Don't mull over the small stuff. I have more than enough chakra ores to power the formation. Our only concern is to finish the seal on time." Izuna shrugs his shoulder.

"Hmm… That's reasonable!"

Minato nods his head.

"Alright! Let's divide the task."

Izuna turns to Tsunade and Kakashi.

"Both of you will evacuate the villagers to a safe shelter. This threat is even bigger than Nine-tails attack, we have to prepare for the worst-case scenario."

He turns to the rest.

"Minato-san! You and Kushina-san will help me with the formation of the seal and later you will maintain the seal. This old pervert will help too."

Jiraiya grumbles, but nods his head.

"Guy, Shisui, and Itachi will monitor the perimeter. I don't want a repeat of Ayaka's incident." Izuna has a stern expression on his face.

"Then who will fight with the enemy?" Jiraiya asks him.

"We both will fight him." Sasuke stands beside Izuna.

'I can't allow Tatsuya to fight Urashiki directly. The risk of Kama is too high, it's almost untraceable. Both me and Sasuke are safe because of our Rinnegan, but the same can't be said for others.'

"Izuna, that's too risky! We can't allow you to put your life on the line every single time." Tsunade and Minato instantly deny his plan.

"Then do any of you have the confidence to survive the battle?"

"This…"

The group falls silent as they have no comeback for Izuna's argument.

"I understand your sentiments. But it's not sentiments but the strength that will help in battle. Believe it or not, your presence will hold me back in the battle." Izuna harshly rebukes them.

Tch…

Tsunade clicks her tongue but abstains from commenting. The rest of the members also have indignant expressions on their faces.

"Good! Then, let's proceed with the first step."

Snap…

Izuna snaps his finger, and a table appears in front of him. He lays a map of Konoha on the table.

"Here!"

Izuna marks a giant red circle on the map.

"This will be our place of ambush. It covers an area of 25 sq. km."

Izuna draws a sealing formation on top of the area.

"The seal will consist of one central node and eight external nodes. He marks the external focal nodes with an alternate white and black mark.

These white nodes are the heaven nodes. They would be buried underground with a pile of chakra ores. You can also call them the life gate of the nodes. These nodes will sustain the formation, so they must be hidden from the view.

These black nodes are the earth nodes. This would be the place from where Minato-san, Kushina-san, and Jiraiya-san will control the rest of the formation. You can call them the human gate."

Hmm…

Minato and Jiraiya study the formation and nod their head in understanding.

"What about this fourth human gate? Who will sustain it? Jiraiya questions him.

"Don't worry, I already have someone in my mind," Izuna assures him.

He continues to carve the rest of the formation while explaining to the group.

Except for Jiraiya, Minato, and the hidden Tatsuya, none of them were able to figure out the principle of the seal. Even Jiraiya's and Minato's understanding was limited.

'Too bad… only the members of the Uzumaki clan have an affinity for Fuinjutsu. As for others, this is how far their talent can take them.' Izuna shakes his head.

The discussion lasts for an entire hour. The group devises various plans and strategies and even formulates backup plans in case of an emergency.

He takes out the chakra sealing tag from his pocket and passes it to the rest of the group.

"I have modified these chakra sealing tags. These new chakra tags will prevent the forceful extraction of chakra from your body. This way, that Urashiki won't be able to steal your chakra and techniques."

"With that being said, let's conclude the meeting for the day." Izuna dismisses the group.

One by one all the members of the group leave the small dimension.

"Tsunade, Wait!"

He stops Tsunade while the rest of the group leaves.

"Huh?! What's the matter?"

"It's nothing severe. Just don't inform Mei about our plan. I don't want her to embroil in this chaos again." Izuna requests her.

"I… I see! Is there anything else?" Tsunade nods her head.

"Yes! I have another request for you. Send Sasuke away from the village for the next month. Anywhere is fine, just pair him with another team and send him on a mission away from Konoha.

"Well!… Alright! I will take care of it. Anything else?"

"No… no! That's it for now." Izuna shakes his head.

"See you, later!" Tsunade disappears from the small dimension.

Phew…

Izuna heaves a sigh of relief.

"With their help, we have at least eighty percent chance to win this fight. I will have to do more research for the last nineteen percent. As for a hundred percent? Who is so sure of fate?"

"Yes! We can prevent Urashiki from interfering with the past. It will be even better if we can drive him back to the future." Sasuke nods his head.

"No! This place will be his grave." Izuna shakes his head.

He has his reason for this. He wants to extract a small sample of Urashiki's blood and cells to study their physiology. Perhaps it may give him some clue about the working of the Kama seal.

'Also, I might get a solution for my condition. I only have one and a half year left. My Rinne-Sharingan is too powerful for my body. It has accelerated the rate of deterioration of my chakra system.

I wonder if there are other worlds with living creatures other than the shinobi world. Otsutsukis have sucked many worlds dry but those worlds should have some living beings to maintain the flow of Nature energy.'

Chakra is just a type of energy utilized by Otsutsuki. When Hagoromo and Hamura inherited chakra; Kaguya was infuriated. She even attempted to steal their chakra.

'I wonder if passing the knowledge of chakra is a taboo in the Otsutsuki clan or else why was Kaguya so mad about chakra if she has already betrayed her clan. Mysteries! Too many mysteries!'

Izuna shakes his head.

"Sasuke, let's go and check our battlefield. The surprise gift for Urashiki shouldn't be lackluster. As for you Tatsuya… why don't you check on Boruto?"

Whoosh…

The Three of them warp out of the In-Yō dimension.

-----------

Back at the Ichiraku ramen,

The fight between Naruto and Boruto has turned into a full-blown brawl thanks to Ayaka fanning the flames.

Naruto and Boruto's face are swollen with black and blue bruises.

"Damnit! Ichiraku ramen is the best!" Naruto yells at the top of his lungs.

"No! Thunder chili burger is the best!" Boruto screams his vocal cords out.

Ayaka takes out a pair of cotton plugs to block the noise. Both of them have raised quite a stir and gathered a large crowd.

"Huh?! What's going on?"

Hinata notices Naruto in the middle of the crowd.

"Naruto-kun?! What's the matter?" She asks Naruto with a red face.

"Mom!" Boruto's shout drags her attention.

"Mmm… Mom?!… NO!!"

"Gentle Fist: Eight Trigram Sixteen Palms"

She rapidly slaps Boruto's face and dashes out of the crowd.

Boruto's face has swollen beyond recognition.

'Damn! Mom is scarier in her childhood!' Tears flow from Boruto's eyes.

Pfftt… Haha…

Naruto burst out in laughter.

"Serves you right for insulting my ramen."

"Hmm… he looks exactly like an onion with that swollen face." Ayaka nods her head.

She is pleased with her naming sense.

On a nearby electric pole,

Tatsuya's face twitches as he stares at the sorry state of Boruto.

'He is a real troublemaker! Brawling with his dad and insulting his mother. Which young girl won't be offended if a kid of her age calls her mother?'

Tatsuya shakes his head.

Whoosh…

He appears in front of the crowd.

"I am sorry, everyone! This kid just got discharged from hospital. He is still recovering from his sequela."

He grabs Boruto and disappears.

'Hmm… was that Nii-san? His appearance was similar to Nii-san.'

Ayaka places a finger under her chin and clicks her tongue.
