Naruto Shippūden — S20 • Infinite Tsukuyomi: The Invocation
With Naruto and Sasuke critically wounded, the fate of the shinobi world hangs precariously in the balance. Kakashi and a changed Obito stand ready to face Madara, but their efforts are dwarfed by his terrifying new strength – the power of the Six Paths. As the battle escalates, Guy may be forced to undertake an unthinkable act, pushing his body beyond its limits to unlock the legendary Gate of Death. Yet even that monumental feat might prove insufficient when Madara unleashes the devastating Infinite Tsukuyomi, plunging everyone into a meticulously crafted dreamscape. The question now becomes: can this seemingly unbreakable illusion ever be shattered?

With the Tailed Beast removed, Naruto teetered on the precipice of death. Sakura fought desperately to restore him, but his heart failed.

Bearing the burden of the Ten Tails, Madara emerged before Kakashi. A combined assault from Kakashi and his allies proved futile; they were simply outmatched.

Something had shifted within Kakashi, a subtle but undeniable decline that troubled Obito deeply. He sought out his former comrade, hoping for a familiar conversation, but found himself met with a chilling indifference. Kakashi offered only…

Obito had never quite grasped Kakashi's perspective, but he finally understood the reason behind his comrade’s prioritization of the mission at Kannabi Bridge. Now, they returned together, Obito and Kakashi, ready to face Madara.

Guy unleashed his Eight Inner Gates upon Madara, yet the Seventh Gate of Shock proved ineffective against him.

Dai spoke to his son, burdened by sorrow, imparting wisdom about the nature of true triumph and the freedom found in self-determination. These words became guiding principles, etched deeply into Guy's heart. Fueled by his father’s counsel, …

Activating the Eight Inner Gates Formation, Guy launched a relentless assault on Six Paths Madara. Even Madara, wielding power capable of cleaving the earth with colossal fissures, found himself forced to evade Guy’s direct strikes.

Naruto stirred, finding himself face to face with the legendary Sage of Six Paths. The ancient figure revealed a truth that resonated deep within him: Naruto was the reincarnation of Ashura, and Sasuke, his eternal rival, embodied the spiri…

Just as Naruto and Sasuke prepare to seal Kaguya, she shifts Sasuke into another dimension. Obito observes that Kaguya's ability to traverse Time-Space mirrors the Visual Prowess of Kakashi and himself. Recognizing the threat, Obito and Sak…

The shadow of a broken vow loomed over Obito as he poured his remaining strength into summoning Sasuke and Sakura. But with each exertion, the memory of his failure to shield Rin tightened its grip, pulling him toward oblivion.

A memory surfaced, a time when they’d both yearned for the title of Hokage. It stirred something within Obito, prompting him to speak with Naruto about the aspirations that had once consumed his own heart.

The chakra, a conduit between this realm and others, granted Obito a fleeting separation from Rin, allowing him to manifest within Kakashi's mind. He bestowed upon the young man his Mangekyo Sharingan, then departed with a final hope: that …
