220 Chapter 220: That Name Doesn't Sound Good

Konoha, on the edge of the Forest of Death.

Two people were falling from the sky.

One of them was about thirty years old, wearing a gray jacket with a blue and white vest, his left sleeve empty and a long black cape covered his figure, with his left eye hidden behind his bangs.

The other was about twelve or thirteen years old, he had golden hair similar to Naruto's, and sapphire blue eyes, surprisingly similar in shape and facial expression, even small stubbles on his face matched Naruto's.

"I don't feel Otsutsuki Urashiki's presence... Where are we?" The young man looked left and right.

The adult reflected for a moment before leaving the Forest of Death. Then, he saw the enormous Hokage Rock in the distance.

"Boruto... We are in a past version of Konoha, apparently we have time traveled to the past."

"Urashiki is directly targeting the Nine-Tails of this era."

"What?!" Boruto's complexion changed. "He's despicable, he's taking advantage of Dad's weakness during his childhood... Sasuke-sensei, we... Sasuke-sensei?"

Boruto looked over curiously. He saw Sasuke looking confused at the two young men walking together.

Following Sasuke's gaze, Boruto recognized them immediately. A young version of Naruto and Sasuke.

"When they were young, their relationship was also very good..." Boruto suddenly smiled. "Come on, Sasuke-sensei. Let's meet them!"

The next instant, Boruto heard young Sasuke address Naruto.

"Naruto, why are you so resentful? Is it just because I hit you a few times? Are you really going to hold a grudge against me for so long?"

"Only a couple of times?!" Naruto said dissatisfiedly. "Obviously you and I have been at the club."

"So, why do mom and Aunt Mikoto talk about me, but not you!"

"Because you don't know how to pretend!" Sasuke shrugged and said: "Who told you to go to the club in front of others.

"But I couldn't hide from them." Naruto wanted to cry without tears. "Teacher Tsunade won't let me go out, I can't afford to leave the village like you do to release from time to time."

Sasuke pondered for a while, and said: "I can't solve this, how about I bring you some of my new reviews to comfort you?"

"Get out!" Naruto pushed Sasuke angrily.

Not far away, the adult Sasuke fell into momentary silence.

Boruto: "...?"

Boruto looked confused. Being so young, with his parents still present and in a distinguished position, no one really dared to corrupt him.

Despite having graduated long ago and having faced several life or death situations, he simply did not understand what young Sasuke and Naruto were talking about.

"Sasuke-sensei, the 'clubs' you and Dad talked about when you were young sound fun. Don't they?"

The adult Sasuke felt the corner of his mouth twitch. Although he had never been to those kinds of places, as a man who had traveled the shinobi world, he of course knew what clubs were. But how to explain it...?

He hesitated a few times, and could only say: "Well, it should be quite fun for some people..."

"Oh, then Sasuke-sensei, why don't you take me to play!" Boruto suddenly became excited. "We, the master and apprentice, haven't played anywhere yet, why don't you take me to the clubhouse to experience it after this mission is over?"

Adult Sasuke's mouth twitched. "Uh, this... this club may not be suitable for your current age."

"Huh? But you and Dad went to one when you were almost the same age as me!" Boruto pointed at young Naruto and Sasuke. "If you guys did it, why don't you let me experience it too?"

Adult Sasuke: "..."

Take him to a club? No way! He believed that if he took him to a club, Hinata would beat him up. Besides, he had never set foot in that kind of place!

"There is a problem!" The adult Sasuke took a deep breath. "Boruto, it seems that this world is different from the one I remember."

Now that Sasuke calmed down from seeing his younger version with Naruto, he noticed that this Konoha does not look like the Konoha in his memories, but rather looks more like the Konoha of his own time with all the technology and development present.

Also clubs and similar things, he was not interested at all! But now...

"Isn't the world right?" Boruto frowned. "Didn't we go back to the past?"

Saying that, he took out an artifact that looked like a turtle.

Karasuki!

This is the treasure of the Otsutsuki clan, able to travel through time and space.

Boruto consulted Karasuki, although he looked like a turtle being capable of answering questions, in reality he was just an object. He confirmed that they were in an earlier time period and, aside from warning them about some time travel taboos, he didn't provide any significant information.

Adult Sasuke is silent, he actually doesn't understand the situation here.

"Urashiki is definitely looking for the Nine-Tails within the current Naruto's body. Regardless of what may change, protecting Naruto is our priority." The adult Sasuke said softly.

Boruto nodded, and then said: "Then Sasuke-sensei, the clubhouse..."

"Go back and ask your father about this!"

Boruto shrugged. "Then let's follow them first?"

"Yes, let's follow them." Adult Sasuke nodded vigorously.

Just at that moment, a voice resounded with a touch of coldness. "Oh, what are you trying to do with us?"

Boruto was stunned for a moment, then looked up suddenly.

The adult Sasuke reacted even more, his eyes widened, and he looked at Sasuke in front of him in shock.

Because...

Sasuke stood proudly on the roof, looking at the two of them with a cold feeling.

Of course, that cold and distant look was typical of Sasuke and didn't faze the adult Sasuke at all.

What really shocked him was...

The Mangekyo Sharingan was spinning rapidly, in Sasuke's eyes.

Huge pupil power radiated from his eyes, causing the surrounding temperature to drop by several degrees, as if winter had arrived in an instant.

"You were watching me and Naruto the whole time and now you want to follow us?" Sasuke said with a light but icy tone, mixed with malice. "Aren't you Konoha's shinobi?"

"So..."

"Are Akatsuki planning to attack Naruto?" When he mentioned this, his expression became extremely cold.

A shiver ran through Boruto's body. Although he had participated in numerous dangerous battles, most of the time both Sasuke and Naruto were the protagonists of the combat, while he remained on the periphery, preventing the enemies' hostility from focusing on him.

But now, young Sasuke was emitting genuine bloodlust.

The adult Sasuke frowned, and stood in front of Boruto, stopping the raging murderous aura. "When did you awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan?"

'My awakening... was after my brother's death.' The adult Sasuke thought.

"It's none of your business when I woke up the Mangekyo." Sasuke's voice was cold. "If you don't want to get hurt, I suggest you all stop your hands honestly and accept my inspection!"

"Otherwise, don't blame me if you die!"

"Be careful, Sasuke." At this moment, Naruto was also standing behind Boruto and the adult Sasuke, a crimson aura of chakra enveloping him, as if putting on a scarlet cloak.

"Kurama warned me that that man in front of us is dangerous and has terrifying chakra... Don't let your guard down!"

The adult Sasuke's pupils shrank as he was shocked again. 'Seeing Naruto's relaxed look, he already controls the power of the Nine-Tails...'

Something really wasn't right in this world.

"I know, Naruto." The corner of Sasuke's mouth rose. "Who do you think you're talking to, Middle of the road?"

"I'm talking to you, why don't we go to the training ground to have a showdown and see if I don't make you call me dad?" Naruto smiled, but his eyes flashed with a touch of coldness. "Akatsuki members, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Do you know how I live these days?"

He couldn't help but said angrily: "It's all because of you bastards, I can't even go to the clubhouse, and my mother found out when I ordered 'takeout'. My butt is still swollen!"

"If you didn't insist on grabbing the Nine-Tails, how could I suffer this crime?!"

With each word, Naruto's anger increased. His pupils transformed into those of a fox.

Sasuke also looked alert, ready to release Susanoo at any time.

The confrontation between them was imminent.

The adult Sasuke narrowed his eyes slightly, Urashiki had just sucked his chakra and had not fully recovered yet. Facing the Mangekyo and the power of the Nine-Tails at the same time, in addition to having to protect Boruto, the situation was not very optimistic...

However, right at that moment...

"Stop, Sasuke, Naruto." Natsuo arrived calmly, glancing at the adult Sasuke, with a hint of amusement in his eyes, but said: "They are not from Akatsuki, there may have been a misunderstanding between you."

When Sasuke heard this, he blinked his eyes, and Mangekyo disappeared.

But Naruto was not convinced. "Natsuo-aniki, how can you be so sure that they are not from Akatsuki? Kurama warned me of their danger and told me to keep an eye on them... Apart from Akatsuki, who else could they be?"

"Could you have made a mistake?"

If they really were from Akatsuki, defeating them might mean gaining some more freedom for him. He could come back to the club whenever he wanted!

Natsuo noticed Naruto's thoughts and sighed in resignation. Then said: "Today you can go and play, I will solve your mother's problem."

In the next second, Naruto changed his words decisively: "Actually, I don't think they are like Akatsuki members either. To be honest, the moment I saw this kid, I felt an inexplicable connection."

As he spoke, he put his arms around Boruto's shoulders and said: "Boy, maybe we are distant relatives!"

Natsuo: "..."

Adult Sasuke: "..."

It's not a distant relative, it's your son!

Naruto didn't know what the two of them were thinking, so he said carelessly: "By the way, kid, what's your name?"

"Boruto." Boruto felt a little uncomfortable with this 'father', but he still responded.

"Boruto? This name doesn't sound right, who gave it to you? Your father or your mother?" Naruto said carelessly: "Anyway, you both have trouble choosing appropriate names."

Both Natsuo and adult Sasuke are dumbfounded.

Meanwhile, Boruto widened his eyes in surprise and complained in his mind, 'Isn't there a remote chance that the culprit of my 'not so good' name is you?'
