Naruto: The Resurrection of the Senju clan

---

**"Little one, you truly are a gift from the heavens."**  

The figure before Takuya gazed at him with a disturbing eagerness, like a madman entranced by something forbidden.

**"Enough with the theatrics. Show me your true form,"** Takuya said calmly, his eyes unwavering.  

He knew well that the entity before him, despite its claims, wasn't so different from humans.

Takuya refused to believe this so-called god could be greater than any force he had encountered.  

**"Heh... Fine. Just this once, I'll show you my true self."**

With a nod, the figure's form shifted. In the blink of an eye, a man appeared before Takuya, his appearance humanoid but with **horns** jutting from his head and dark, ominous markings tracing his body.  

**"Byakugan,"** the man muttered, activating the **ancient dōjutsu**.  

The man's vision pierced through time, his eyes following Takuya's life from the moment of his birth until now.

**"How strange... You've been preparing for this moment since you were a child. But how did you come to possess this knowledge?"** the man asked, his brow furrowed in confusion.  

He realized that Takuya had been waiting for this encounter, though the question lingered—how did someone so young know so much?

**"I see now,"** the man said, his voice soft with revelation. **"You were born with this knowledge."**

The words sent ripples through the air, striking the group of shinobi around Takuya. **Tsunade**, **Orochimaru**, **Kushina**, **Madara**, and the others exchanged glances, the shock clear on their faces.

No wonder Takuya always seemed to know things others couldn't comprehend—secrets that should have been lost to time were as familiar to him as breathing.

**"So, that's it,"** Orochimaru said, his serpentine eyes glimmering with newfound interest.  

The idea of someone like Takuya, born with such impossible knowledge, reignited the scientist's dormant curiosity—his hunger for understanding rekindled. Despite immortality and immense power, Orochimaru realized there were still mysteries left to unravel.

**"This kid... that's how he saw through my plans,"** Madara murmured, a sigh of realization escaping his lips.  

It explained everything—how Takuya had outmaneuvered him, how his most secretive strategies had been laid bare. To someone who knew everything, nothing could remain hidden.

**"I didn't lose unfairly,"** Madara mused, a sense of relief washing over him. Losing to someone like Takuya no longer seemed so bitter.  

**"You've been hiding this from us all along, haven't you?"** Tsunade and Kushina both pouted, their voices filled with mock indignation.

As Takuya's wives, they were exasperated that he had kept this secret from them. Though determined to scold him later, they couldn't deny their affection for him, even now.

Takuya remained calm, watching their reactions with little emotion. He had achieved his goal. Whether they mistook him for someone born with knowledge or understood him as a time traveler, it didn't matter.

Once he dealt with this self-proclaimed god, the universe would be his to control.

**"You... you must be the will of the universe itself,"** the man snarled, rage flickering in his eyes. **"No matter what you are, I will become the master of this universe!"**

The figure couldn't grasp the concept of time travel. To him, Takuya was merely an obstacle, a test from the universe itself—one he needed to overcome to claim ultimate power.

**"Heh... You're nothing but a fool who stumbled upon a few **chakra fruits**. And you dare call yourself a god?"** Takuya sneered.  

When the man had used his Byakugan to peer into Takuya's life, Takuya had done the same, using his mastery over time.

The so-called god was a fraud, a mediocre being who had ascended through luck. By consuming chakra fruits, he had gained immense power but lacked control over it, forcing him into long periods of slumber to prevent his own strength from consuming him.

Moreover, the man had ensured that any of his kin who grew too powerful were eliminated, keeping potential challengers at bay. As a result, most of the **Ōtsutsuki** remained stagnant in power.

**"You've mastered divine techniques, haven't you?"** the man said, his voice cold. **"But you still can't defeat me."**

With a sharp movement, the man raised his hand and unleashed a devastating attack.

**"Divine Technique: Annihilation!"** he roared.  

The space before him shattered, everything in its path crumbling to dust. But just as the destructive force reached Takuya, it halted.

**"Divine Technique: Reversal,"** Takuya said, his voice calm.  

Instantly, the crumbling space restored itself, reversing the destruction. Takuya's technique, born from his ability to manipulate time, allowed him to undo any changes to his surroundings.

**"Impossible! How can you control such power?!"** The man's voice trembled in disbelief as he witnessed Takuya's mastery over time—a force even the so-called god couldn't comprehend.

**"Divine Technique: Almighty Creation,"** 

Takuya continued, ignoring the man's shock.  

He summoned a shadow identical to the man before him. This shadow possessed the same powers, able to manifest anything, to bring thoughts to life. It was the ultimate ability—to create and shape reality itself.

The man stared at the shadow in horror. Seeing a perfect reflection of himself created by Takuya, his mind finally broke, unable to comprehend the depths of Takuya's power.

Compared to Takuya, this self-proclaimed god realized he was nothing more than a pretender.

The battle between Takuya and the self-proclaimed god was over in an instant.

Once the god witnessed Takuya's overwhelming power, his will crumbled entirely. He became convinced that Takuya was merely a puppet of the universe, designed solely to eliminate him.

With a single, swift move, Takuya annihilated the god—erasing both his body and soul from existence.

The immense power that once belonged to the god flowed into Takuya, so vast that even he felt a momentary tremor of fear. If the god hadn't faltered, the battle might have proven more challenging. But now, the outcome was inevitable—Takuya stood victorious.

As the god was obliterated, those who had served under him fell into despair. Even the most hardened warriors realized that their strongest champion had been defeated. Resistance was futile.

The remnants of the army collapsed to their knees, begging for mercy. They had always relied on the strength of others to survive and grow stronger, but they were not a race known for their resolve.

**"Takuya-sama has won! As expected from my husband, he never disappoints,"** one of Takuya's companions exclaimed.

**"I was terrified when that god appeared. I thought it was the end for us,"** another added, still in shock. **"But I never imagined Takuya-sama's power had grown to such an extent... It's truly terrifying."**

While Takuya's allies celebrated, the enemy forces had lost all hope. Takuya's strength now stood unparalleled.

After absorbing the god's power, Takuya steadied himself, calming the turbulent energy within him. He approached **Tsunade** and **Kushina**, who stood nearby, watching in silence.

**"Husband, what do we do with the survivors?"** Tsunade asked, her tone neutral but firm.

**"Eliminate them all,"** Takuya responded without hesitation.

For Takuya, there was no other option. Leaving any enemies alive could invite future threats. He wasn't about to risk an orphaned enemy seeking revenge. Their war had raged on for far too long—mercy was no longer an option.

Upon hearing his decree, the surviving members of the enemy army realized their fate was sealed. Some tried to flee, others accepted their fate with bowed heads, and a few cursed Takuya with their final breaths.

But it was all in vain. Takuya locked onto their life forces, and with a mere thought, the space around them fractured. In an instant, those marked by Takuya were annihilated, leaving nothing behind.

After finishing off the last of his enemies, Takuya turned his attention to the planet where the remaining forces were stationed. These soldiers, still training, were unaware of the fate that had befallen their comrades.

From afar, Takuya raised his hand, pointing at the distant world.

**"Shatter."**

A beam of raw destructive power shot from his fingertip. In a deafening roar, the planet crumbled into dust, obliterating every last soul upon it.

**"Now... it's time to claim the will of the universe,"** Takuya murmured to himself.

By absorbing the god's power, Takuya had gained access to many of the secrets the god had known—secrets about the very will of the universe itself.

The will of the universe governed all things, dictating the laws that held reality together. To ascend beyond his current state, Takuya knew there was only one path: to merge with this cosmic will and become the sole ruler of all creation.

This had been the god's ultimate goal. Now, with the god gone, Takuya could feel the universe's will calling to him.

He reached out with his mind, and an indescribable force surged into him, intertwining with his being. His aura expanded, growing even more immense.

When Takuya opened his eyes, the transformation was complete. He had absorbed the universe's will and transcended the realm of gods, becoming the true master of all that existed.

The birth and death of stars, the flow of time itself—all of it was now under his command.

**"At last... I've reached the summit,"** Takuya whispered, a mixture of awe and satisfaction in his voice.

After decades of struggle and striving, Takuya had become the most powerful being in existence. Nothing and no one could threaten him any longer.

The sensation was intoxicating.

Returning to the homeworld of his enemies, Takuya gathered his companions.

**"It's time to return home,"** he said.

With a mere thought, Takuya transported everyone back to their world.

The long-standing conflict between their world and the invaders was finally over. Takuya, having ascended to a power beyond all others, settled back into his life, enjoying the peace he had earned with **Tsunade**, **Kushina**, and his other allies by his side.

Under Takuya's protection, their clan thrived and began to spread its influence across the universe, colonizing other habitable worlds.

Years passed, and as Takuya fully mastered the power he had absorbed, he became aware of something new—a barrier that separated their universe from others. 

Another world lay beyond the cosmic divide.

Following his intuition, Takuya used his newly gained powers to tear open the fabric of reality. Before him appeared a crack in space—a void so dark and infinite that even he couldn't fully comprehend it.

**"...!"**

Takuya's expression shifted, a mixture of surprise and excitement playing across his face. The existence of a **multiverse** opened endless possibilities. Perhaps the world he had once known, before all this began, was out there, somewhere.

More importantly, other universes meant new powers to discover, new challenges to face.

After a moment of careful thought, Takuya made his decision. If he remained idle, it was only a matter of time before a new threat emerged. And beyond that, he was curious to see what other worlds might hold.

He bid farewell to **Tsunade**, **Kushina**, and the others, promising to return for them someday.

And with that, Takuya stepped into the rift, disappearing into the unknown...

**To be continued.**
