The Fourth Great Ninja War is over. The Akatsuki is no more. During that moment, the troops of Lyons's Corps was tending to The Dead, The Dying & The Wounded. Among the recovered troops, is Lieutenant General Patrick Dawson, who survived his surgery. Rangiku stayed by his side as he recovered. Jay walked around until he noticed General Lyons got a headcount of the those that died in The 114th Regiment. It hit him like a thunder bolt. This was the unit he commanded when he was Colonel. Less than a year later, what was left of The 114th is consolidated with The 1st, disbanding The 114th Regiment.

Hagoromo asked Naruto and Sasuke if the answers they gave him before have changed. Naruto said he's hasn't changed, and having fought Kaguya, that he is glad Kushina was his mother. But, there is a matter of The Infinite Tsukuyomi. Hagoromo explained that Naruto and Sasuke, having the tailed beasts' chakra and the Rinnegan, can release the Infinite Tsukuyomi. They must form the rat hand seal together in order to release the jutsu. Before they could, Sasuke said he will kill the current Kage inside The Infinite Tsukuyomi. That news shocked everyone. He warned The Jedi, The Soul Reapers & Lyons's troops that if they were in his way, he will kill each and every still one of them. He puts the tailed beasts under genjutsu, also planning to kill them later. He purposed Revolution, destroying The Hidden Leaf and rebuild it without darkness. Cut down The Jedi Council & The Captains of The Thirteen Court Guard Squad and reform The Shinobi World. When Clones and Soldiers of The 1st Pennsylvania & 114th took aim, Sasuke pushed them back with his Rinnegan and imprisoned The Tailed Beasts using Planetary Devastation. Jay and the others Jedi shielded the wounded and rescued The Clones from being imprisoned by Sasuke's Jutsu. When Naruto opposes him, Sasuke tells Naruto they need to fight somewhere else. Sakura tries appealing to Sasuke by telling him that she still loves him but he puts her under genjutsu to keep her from interfering with his battle with Naruto. Both Commander Edna & Kakashi scolds Sasuke for this because Sakura's love for him is making her suffer and Sasuke thinks back to his family before leaving. Jaysuki tried to chase after him, calling Sasuke a "Uchiha Bastard!" and He is a dead man. Naruto assures Kakashi he'll keep his promise of bringing Sasuke back. Patrick told Naruto to give Sasuke hell before leaving to find Sasuke.

As a precaution, Jay and Mollbry order all Clones to secure a perimeter and watch out for enemy sneak attacks. Jay and Mollbry checked on Sakura and Kakashi. Sakura, unconscious from Sasuke's genjutsu. He could not help but feel sorry for what Sakura went through when it comes to Sasuke. Citing that the past is there as a reminder, Hagoromo expresses his confidence that Naruto would be able to transform Sasuke's hate into love. Then, he begins to disappear and he tells Kakashi to believe in them, because there was nothing more they could do. And with that, he was gone. Jay returned his gaze to Sakura, feeling her pain. He placed his hands gently on the her's head. He later descripted his experience.

"It's like something out of Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol. I was in The Hidden Leaf of the past; seeing the shadow's of the things that have been. I can see and hear them, but they can't see nor hear me. Remember, in Chapter 2 of the book, Scrooge was visited by The Spirit of Christmas Past, who showed him his past what he was before he became a stingy, old miser. I was at the village gate and it was there, I saw at the gate of the village. There, I saw him, Sasuke with his belongings approaching the village when Sakura appeared, waiting for him. Sasuke tells her to go home, but Sakura refuses, instead asking why he always pushes her away and reminding him of all the good times Team 7 has had. She tried to persuade him to stay so that she won't be alone and, when that doesn't work, argues that his revenge against Itachi isn't worth it. I could sense her sorrow, suffering and pain; begging for Sasuke to stay. When Sasuke remains determined to go, Sakura tells him she loves him and offers to go with him. Sasuke tells her that she is annoying, just as he did after Team 7's formation. Sakura threatens to scream for help, so he knocks her out. However, before he does it, he thanks her. He puts her on a bench before departing. I approved her, kneeled down and noticed a small tear coming from Sakura's eye. I tried to wipe her eye, but my hand went through her. Seeing another shadow, I saw Naruto with Shikamaru, Kiba, Neji & Choji getting ready to find Sasuke. Lyons, when was a Colonel, was there, mounted on horseback. He was accompanied by Dawson, when he was a Captain, and several soldiers of The 114th. Then, Sakura approached them as they prepare to set out from Konoha. Sakura begs Naruto to bring Sasuke back to Konoha, believing he is the only person who can get through to him at this point. Naruto vows to do so, even if it takes his entire life, and Sakura cries at his dedication to her. Once they left, I saw Lyons dismounted, approached Sakura and comforted her. I noticed her cared for her and, in his mind, he promised to help Naruto to bring Sasuke home and to keep Sakura happy so she won't go through that again. Seeing another shadow, I saw Naruto in a hospital bed, wrapped in bandages, failing to bring Sasuke back, depite his promise. Sakura visits him in the hospital and, after trying to avoid the subject, tells him that she won't hold him to his word. Naruto, however, refuses to go back on what he said. Touched, Sakura apologizes to Naruto for what he's gone through and promises to personally help him bring Sasuke back next time. Seeing the last shadow, Sakura, as in the manga, asks to become Tsunade's apprentice so that she can better meet the challenges she'll face in the future. Tsunade accepts. I could not believe how can one person can cause how much pain to someone who have feelings towards someone. It was me, I won't never show my face anywhere.". - Jay Lyon October 10th, 2018.
