Chapter 360 You dare to speak ill of me, Boss Nika, Wang Luffy?!
【That's your problem.】10+ people liked this. 【This isn't anyone's problem! It's an objective problem with the narrative logic! Forcibly weakening old characters to promote new ones is a problematic creative approach. If a work requires viewers to "change themselves" to appreciate it, is that a success or a failure?】10+ people liked this. 【The core plot of Boruto is sacrificing Naruto and Sasuke. Why didn't Ikemoto sacrifice his Frostbite too?!】10+ people liked this. 【I understand the theme of "stepping out of the shadow of one's parents," but there are many ways to achieve that theme, and Boruto chose the most unacceptable one—destroying the glory of the previous generation.】10+ people liked this. 【That's because you're no longer the readers Boruto needs. Look at the sales of the Boruto manga; they've already increased. Although many people used to criticize Boruto for being immature, that changed later. Now Boruto is the king of resilience.】10+ people liked this. 【How come you still don't understand!】 The problem with Boruto isn't Boruto, Sarada, or any other character! It's the story structure and its setting! Turning a hero who once saved the world into an incompetent father and workaholic—isn't that a cheap form of subversion? Naruto is weakened to the point where he can't even manage his shadow clones, and Sasuke loses his Rinnegan and an arm. If this isn't narrative destruction, then what is?

Watching the heated argument, both sides seemed to have some merit in their arguments.
"Ahem," Naruto coughed as the Hokage, "Anyway, you just need to know that this is not your problem in any way."
Sasuke nodded. "That's right."
On the other side, in the timeline before the Uchiha clan massacre, Goku frowned and said, "Ugh, this is really a headache!" "It's even more intense than my battle with Vegeta."
"That's right!" The Konoha ninja next to him shrugged. "But we've been through this for over a month now, so it doesn't bother us anymore."
"Yeah," another Konoha ninja chimed in, "I'd rather they talked about fighting strength. Otherwise, it's either criticizing their values or discussing the romantic relationships between Sasuke and Naruto, or the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha. Enough already!"
"?!" Sun Wukong exclaimed in surprise, "I always thought those two kids (Naruto and Sasuke) were boys!"
"Uh—" The Konoha ninja waved his hand, "It's a long story. Just pretend we didn't say anything."
"Wait a minute? That's strange, why did you stop halfway through your sentence?"
Sun Wukong, who was almost full, was puzzled. At this moment, the comments in the sky mentioned "Dragon Ball" again, and his attention was quickly drawn back to the comments.

[While many criticize *Dragon Ball Super*, it's still *Dragon Ball*. *Boruto* is simply another anime built on the popularity of its predecessor. After reaping the last wave of viewership, it abandoned its original readers and focused on cultivating *Boruto*'s fanbase. This move is both shrewd and ruthless.] 100,000+ people agree. [Shrewd my foot!] 100,000+ people agree. [Can you please stop criticizing *Boruto*? It's very relevant to our times!] 100,000+ people agree. [You're all old fogies pointing fingers and hindering the progress of the ninja era! How are you any different from Danzo Shimura?] 100,000+ people agree. [This analogy is flawed. Danzo manipulated power for personal gain, while we criticize its sequels because we love the IP. Equating genuine criticism with hindering progress is the most Danzo-like act of labeling.] [100,000+ people liked this] [True progress is about inheriting the good and improving the bad, not taking everything from your predecessors and using them as stepping stones.] [100,000+ people liked this] [Have those criticizing Boruto actually read the story? Or are they just parroting others based on edited clips? Those forced nerfs are original content from the anime; they don't exist in the manga!] [Hilarious! In the manga, Naruto and Sasuke are like playing in a bronze-level game with a high-level account, their positioning is all about taking hits by face, and all their skills miss!]
10+ people liked this: [I only said Sasuke and Naruto were weakened after reading the manga. Frankly, the narrative premise of *Boruto* dictates that Naruto and Sasuke must be weakened. For the story of *Boruto* to be plausible, it needs a desperate, dark beginning where a new generation must rise up. If Naruto and Sasuke maintained their "godlike" peak state at the end of *Naruto*, they could easily solve any crisis, and Boruto's generation would never have a chance to rise.] 10+ people liked this: [In reality, people say the older generation has taken all the resources, leaving young people with no choice but to lie low. But when watching anime, people hope the older generation can maintain their advantage. Frankly, it's about who's favored!] 10+ people liked this: [Watching *Boruto* with the perspective of watching *Naruto* is like watching a sci-fi movie with the perspective of a martial arts film.] 10+ people liked this: [What? Watching a sci-fi movie with the perspective of a martial arts film? I watched it for the ninjas, and they gave me a *Dragon Ball* and *Bleach* movie!!] Ninjas aren't even considered side dishes! 】10+ people think this is great. 【In the end, for top-tier IPs, the plot is secondary; the characters are the real assets. Making sequels is just reheating leftovers, but Boruto is a different story.】
"It's like launching a new franchise," bundling old characters with new ones for sale—it's already following the path of celebrity management. [10+ people think this is great. The problem is, the way they're doing it is awful! Creating new characters is fine, but treating old characters like clowns and belittling them is bound to make longtime fans furious.]
10+ people liked this: 【At least Dragon Ball Super knew to constantly introduce new gods (God of Destruction, Zeno) as sparring partners for Goku and Vegeta, which broadened the scope. Boruto just crippled the old gods (Naruto, Sasuke) to use as stepping stones for the newcomers, the scope is terrible!】 10+ people liked this: 【What's so good about Dragon Ball? So many hype? To be honest, the plot of Dragon Ball is quite average, and there are only a few characters. One Piece has dozens of main characters, and they all interact with each other. In terms of plot, it's clearly stronger than Dragon Ball!】 10+ people liked this: Goku: "One Piece? What's that? Sounds like someone really strong!"
"It's another world, similar to ours and yours." Through mirrors connecting other timelines, they had seen things about pirates, "possessing special abilities like turning men into women or becoming invisible."
"Turning men into women?! Wow!!! What a terrifying ability!!" Sun Wukong's focus: "After becoming a woman, his fighting power will decrease."
Upon hearing this, the female ninjas nearby were displeased, but considering that the other party was a hero who had saved the ninja world, they swallowed their anger and kept quiet.
【Even in the simplest Dragon Ball series, the characters, whether heroes or villains, are all fairly normal, right? Saiyans might get cocky when they have the upper hand, but they wouldn't go around doing a naked dance for the enemy. It's unimaginable that Goku would play house with Frieza and Cell during a life-or-death battle, then Krillin and the others would be captured, and Goku would be laughing until he cried. That would be incredibly stupid.】100,000+ people liked this. 【No matter what you say, One Piece's sales have long surpassed Dragon Ball's!】100,000+ people liked this. 【Big guts!! You dare to mock my VIP Luffy?!】100,000+ people liked this. 【In the Cell Saga, Gohan from the future chose to fight to the end against the villains Androids 17 and 18, whose power far surpassed theirs. Oden, who was even stronger than Kaido, chose to give up resistance, willingly doing a naked dance for a year to entertain everyone, and finally being blown to death in a cauldron of boiling oil for an hour.】 "Truly a hero! To be able to play four 2s and two Kings until you're all out of cards is a talent!" (100,000+ people liked this) "What do you mean 'all out of cards'? The enemy has clearly played all their cards, and he's still holding onto those four 2s and two Kings, not playing a single card." (100,000+ likes)
[10+ people liked this] "Dragon Ball Super has a lot of problems, right? What's with all this talk about universes? It's so confusing!" "?! They're having the Omni-King spar with me and Vegeta?! I had no idea about that!!" Goku exclaimed in surprise, frowning as he asked, "But what are they talking about? Why are they dancing for the enemy after they've gained the upper hand? That's so weird!"
"It's alright if you don't understand," Tobirama Senju shook his head and sighed. "After you've eaten, go and learn the Shadow Clone Technique from me. While Obito Uchiha is still searching for the Dragon Balls, learn as much as you can."
Upon hearing that he was going to train, Kakarot didn't want to waste a single second.
I can create a thousand clones to cultivate, and then create another clone to obediently work under Qiqi's orders! Absolutely perfect!! Just thinking about it makes me incredibly excited!!
Sakumo Hatake was concerned about another issue, "Um, is my son Kakashi doing well over there?" Judging from Goku's strength, Sakumo Hatake was genuinely worried that the overall combat power over there was too high, resulting in Kakashi's corpse being returned in exchange.
"As long as no aliens come to attack Earth, it's pretty safe there, don't worry!" Sun Wukong smiled, his eyes crinkling. "At most, he'll have to help me with farm work, otherwise Chi-Chi might not give him any food, hahaha."
"Oh, that's good." Hearing him say that, Hatake Sakumo and the others were relieved.
Similar to this timeline, other timelines are also unfolding at the same time, but with different circumstances, resulting in different stories.
Konoha Team Assignment Timeline —
In this timeline, 12-year-old Sasuke wishes for the resurrection of all the Uchiha who were killed by Itachi, the entire Konoha village is instilled with Konoha-style friendship, and Black Zetsu is sealed in the Totsuka Blade and can no longer do evil. Therefore, Kakashi has the opportunity to choose three wishes.
["Confirming the Konoha Team Assignment Timeline" - Kakashi Hatake's Wish:"]
"First, revive Obito Uchiha."
-
"Second, revive Nohara Rin."
"Part Three: Revive Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki."
It directly covered the first three options.
The four returned to the human world, and naturally, everyone had to give them a long explanation.
In the subsequent Land of Waves 1.0 timeline, all the Uchiha clans from that night of massacre were resurrected, and the entire Konoha was instilled with Uchiha-style friendship. Because Black Zetsu was not sealed beforehand, Black Zetsu was able to choose his own wish.
In this timeline without the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha, he naturally still chose to let Kaguya return to the human world.
Only Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan, and a few others who managed to escape by exploiting a bug in Kamui and Tsukuyomi, managed to escape; the rest were all trapped in Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Moreover, without Tobirama Senju, who was destined to become the strongest songstress in the ninja world, as a backup plan, the only option was to seal Kaguya at Kakashi's turn and rescue everyone.
Fortunately, because the entire Hidden Leaf Village was instilled with Uchiha-style friendship, Kakashi even gave up becoming Naruto and Sasuke's Jonin mentor and went to the ninja world to find Obito at all costs.
While Kaguya was using Infinite Tsukuyomi, Kakashi had already found Obito and entered the Kamui dimension with him, thus escaping a dangerous situation!
In other words, even if the entire ninja world were trapped in the dream of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, Kakashi, who has three chances to make a wish, could still defy fate!
[“Confirming the Timeline of the Land of Waves 1.0” - Kakashi Hatake’s Wish:”
"Seven, Obito Uchiha's permanent right to use the Sharingan."
[Nine, gaining a passive skill that forces a 50/50 matchup.]
[10. To have a son and a daughter.]
'
Obito felt that something was wrong, and even felt a sudden ache in his teeth.
"I'm not going to take my eyes back! You might as well choose something else instead of this wish!!"
Kakashi, holding two babies in his arms, handed one to Obito and responded to his angry expression with a smile, "This is more secure, or would you prefer me to wish for the Thousand Years of Death series of techniques?"
When Kakashi said the second half of his sentence, his tone was suggestive, and his eyes darted between Obito Uchiha's lower body and behind him.
Obito Uchiha felt a chill run down his spine, goosebumps rising all over his body.
He couldn't stand Kakashi like this!
To use the omniscient terminology used in the comments, "gods who know everything," this is what you call "yandere," right?!
He thought, Kakashi's surname is Hatake, not Gasai! (Gagasai Yuno, the woman mentioned in the comment section.)
So much so that Obito Uchiha didn't even dare to ask why he had to choose between a son and a daughter!
What kind of Uchiha-style friendship is this?!
How could the Uchiha clan be so insane?!
The baby in his arms wasn't immediately obvious in terms of gender, but it clearly resembled Kakashi as a child, with soft, silver hair that looked quite adorable. However, Obito Uchiha didn't feel he was holding a cute infant; instead, he felt it was an incredibly hot potato—
Chunin Exams Timeline —
This timeline is packed with powerful figures, with all the Konoha ninjas from past generations resurrected, including several Hokage, Madara Uchiha who wasn't expelled, as well as Sakumo Hatake, Rin Nohara, and others. Except for Pain (Nagato) and Konan, all the Akatsuki members were imprisoned in Konoha's jail.
Given the precedent of the Fourth Shinobi World War, Black Zetsu did not dare to directly revive Kaguya. Instead, he opted for a body from the Otsutsuki clan.
Black Zetsu continued to lie low, while the perfectly normal Kakashi made three wishes—
["Confirming the Chunin Exams Timeline" - Kakashi Hatake's Wish:]
"Second, revive Uchiha Nohara Rin."
"Part Four: Revive Hatake Sakumo."
[Nine, gaining a passive skill that forces a 50/50 matchup.]
Lin and her father, Shuo Mao, had already been resurrected, but their other wishes were increasingly unreliable. He could only choose the wishes that had already been fulfilled, so that Lin and Shuo Mao could come to his side in full condition.
As for resolving the Black Zetsu issue, there's no rush. Black Zetsu is too good at hiding; he survived the year before last, so he won't do anything for us now.
In the Valley of the End 1.0 timeline, Sasuke's initial wish was to "revive all those who were killed by Obito Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha."
In this timeline without Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, Black Zetsu still boldly chose to bring Kaguya to the ninja world, immediately plunging the entire world into the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
The trees are covered with cocoons of people, and the world is completely silent.
After a long wait, Kakashi's wish did not come to the Divine Tree bullet screen.
"Random mode activated."
[“Confirming the Valley of the End 1.0 Timeline” - Kakashi Hatake's Wish:”
"Part Three: Revive Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki."
"8. Remove the mask and randomly change faces."
[10. To have a son and a daughter.]
Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki in this world had already been revived once by Sasuke's wish, and now they are just trapped in the Infinite Tsukuyomi and the cocoon.
However, the power of the Divine Tree's barrage is clearly much greater than that of Kaguya and the Divine Tree.
Since Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki were still alive, they were summoned to Kakashi's side at full strength, with all negative status effects and debuffs completely removed. Of course, their minds were also freed from the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
The three of them were clearly very crowded inside the cocoon. Minato Namikaze used his chakra blade to cut open the cocoon that bound them and landed on the ground with Kakashi, who was still unconscious.
Kushina caught Kakashi's two children as they fell from the sky.
The two arrived at the Hokage Building, found the mirror that connected to the Fourth Shinobi World War, and sought help from the Second Hokage there.
Knowing that they had also drawn the wish to "remove the mask and change the face," Tobirama Senju told them about what was happening in the "timeline before the Uchiha Clan massacre."
Kushina: "So, if we just remove Kakashi's mask, we can summon powerful allies to help us defeat Kaguya and rescue everyone from the Infinite Tsukuyomi?!"
"—Sigh." Tobirama Senju, the Fourth Shinobi, stood before the mirror wall, rubbing his forehead and letting out a heavy sigh. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Should I say you truly are Naruto Uzumaki's mother? Your naiveté is exactly the same—"
Minato Namikaze instantly put on an awkward yet polite smile. He quickly patted Kushina's shoulder and patiently explained to her, "It's not that simple. According to the literal meaning of the wish, the summoned character is completely random."
"So it's not necessarily the same as that parallel world, where a Mr. Kakarot happens to be summoned. The one who comes might not be a strong fighter, or even—it might be a villain with malicious intent."
"Wait—?! How could this be?!" Kushina immediately deflated, letting out an incredulous groan.
