“AN OLD FRIEND!”

"You… how are you alive?!" said Rafuru shockingly.

"So you remember me, huh?"- The man with the Rinnegan

"How can I ever forget you? Shukajin"

"Well you sure have forgotten your manners…"

Shukajin suddenly vanished and kicked Rafuru in the face, "It's Shukajin-san to you."

"Please stop this big bro, do you know how much I missed you? I thought you were dead. Why didn't you let us know that you were alive? And what's up with those Rinnegan eyes?"

"You know you ask too many questions and I am not obliged to answer! But I'll tell you why I have these eyes… these eyes belong to me, I am an Uchiha Clan member. When the meteorite was about to hit you, I don't know how but my Mangekyou Sharingan awakened. I used the 'Incomplete Susanoo' to protect you, when the Susanoo and the meteor made contact its force was much more than I could handle, I was pushed miles away from the Leaf and was on the verge of dying and that's when my Rinnegan awakened, these eyes saved me and with these eyes I saw the truth behind all this false peace. I don't know how I was born as an Uchiha but I know why I was born, I was born to slaughter each and every shinobi in this world!"- Shukajin.

"Please reconsider, I am begging you. We shinobi have thrived for this peace, you can't take it from us."- Rafuru

"Are you giving me orders? You pest! I'll start by killing your beloved so called Hokage."- Shukajin

Saying this he headed towards Ino who was healing Naruto, just when he was going to deliver a lethal punch he was stopped by a hand. It was none other than Rafuru. "Listen I don't care what you do to me but if you touch my family or the village, I will not forgive!" Rafuru threw a punch at him, when he was about to make contact the truth seeking ball protected Shukajin and pushed Rafuru to a corner.

"Did you really think you could hit me? Can't you see I am a God !"

Rafuru stood up, "Your Godliness can kiss my ass!"

Shukajin- Fine then I'll kill you first and then I'll kill the rest of 'em.

Rafuru- Summoning, 'Flying Raijin Stone Pillar Forest'!

Shukajin- Oh are you going to use that 'time-space jutsu' of yours? Too bad, Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu.

Rafuru dodged the fireball by teleporting to a kunai on a pillar.

Rafuru- Shadow Style: Shadow Dragon Thunder Strike!

With help of the Flying Raijin kunais he dodged his each and every attack and then teleported to where Shukajin was levitating and then attacked with a Chidori. The jutsu didn't work and Shukajin stood there without any damage.

Shukajin- Oh didn't anyone tell you? Ninjutsu doesn't work on me.

"Attack him using sage jutsu." Sasuke shouted.

Shukajin- You should have kept your mouth shut!

He threw the chakra absorbing rod towards Sasuke. The chakra rods pierced Sasuke's hand and leg and a cry was heard, it wasn't the cry of Sasuke it was the one healing him (Sakura) who was crying. When Rafuru looked at both of them hurt, he was filled with anger, the love for his big bro instantly changed into bloodthirsty hate. Dark clouds gathered in the sky and soon the sound of lightning was heard.

"You… you don't show your face for 17 years and now you suddenly want to destroy the shinobi world. Are you crazy?! I will not let you hurt anyone else, I will stop you right here and right now!"

Shukajin- Ooh hurting your sensei made you go this mad, just imagine what will happen when I will crush your little sister in front of you and you couldn't do a thing to protect her…

Just when Shukajin was about to complete his sentence, Rafuru teleported behind his back and used his Scorch Style: Rasen-Kunai. The impact of it was so huge that even Boruto and Sarada were pushed back, when the smoke cleared the scene was completely visible, Shukajin was trapped in a 'fire vortex' and was struggling and Rafuru was standing behind him with Sage Mode eyes, with a jutsu so strong his hand was also damaged.

"Amaterasu!"- Shukajin

The black flames completely destroyed the fire vortex, Shukajin did take a lot of damage, his face was half burnt, his back was destroyed, his entire body was bleeding.

Shukajin- You… how did you manage to get behind me? You had such an attack up your sleeve and I didn't even know.

Rafuru- You went too far, you knew how much I love my sister. Letting me attack you the first time was a mistake… sure the Chidori didn't do any damage but in that moment I was able to put a teleportation seal on you.

Shukajin- You will die by my hand!

Shukajin turned and tried to punch Rafuru with amaterasu flames covering his fist but Rafuru dodged his punch using the Swift release and punched him in the stomach.

Rafuru- tell me, just how many mistakes are you going to make? I've placed another teleportation seal on you this time on your front body.

Shukajin- I've got you now!

He grabbed Rafuru's hand and used the Kagutsuchi on him, Rafuru did manage to escape but wasn't able to teleport quickly because he was in direct contact with Shukajin's chakra. The amaterasu flames did make contact and Rafuru's hand was burned. Shukajin wasn't alone, he had an entire army of shinobi who supported his ideals. When they saw their leader all beat up they knew that it would take time for him to heal perfectly, so they decided to continue attacking the villagers. When one of them was about to kill a fellow shinobi, Rafuru summoned a flying raijin sword and drowned it in the ground doing that helped him cover the Leaf's entire area, he could teleport anywhere he wanted but within a confined space. He instantly teleported to the enemy and threw a kunai at him but was stopped by Shukajin.

Shukajin- I will not let you hurt any of people.

Rafuru- You still have this much fight in you? Fine then 'Chakra Storage Seal' release!

It was similar to when Sasuke made the Second Hokage angry, a huge amount of chakra was released. It shook the entire Leaf village, soon the ninja armies from the Great nations arrived. When the Cloud shinobi were going to attack they were held back by their Raikage who was none other than Yamamaru. "Wait! Don't interfere in their battle, we will only get in his way. Attack only the enemy army and not the enemy leader. We will leave it to the Swift Assassin to handle him. Now, charge!"

And with that signal all of the shinobi forces charged in and started to attack the enemy forces.

Shukajin- What happened? Are you not going to attack me?

Rafuru- I'll let you heal properly because you are going to face my strongest jutsus. You will be the second who faced my Blue Flames, here I come.
