They had done it. Naruto couldn't help the smile that spread across his face as this realization hit him.

They had defeated Kaguya, Madara, and Obito and saved the world. Infinite Tsukuyomi could be stopped, and everything could go back to normal.

"I can't believe we did it." Naruto thought as he looked at Sakura, Sasuke, and Kakashi. All of them were exhausted after the nonstop fighting they had endured.

"You really pulled through on this one kit," Kurama's ying half said with a small grin gracing his face.

Naruto did a full 360 looking at all the bijuu that were standing around them. Seeing the beast he was looking for Naruto's face lit up.

"Oi! Kurama!" Naruto yelled to the Kyuubi who was now towering over him. "I missed you man, did you miss me to!?" Naruto yelled waving to the demon fox, who he had recently befriended.

"Shut up you baka! I didn't miss you at all. Besides my ying half is still sealed inside you." Kurama yelled in mock anger as he flipped Naruto off.

"Aww come on I know you love me!" Naruto said holding out his fist for Kurama to bump. Reluctantly Kurama extended his massive paw and bumped fists with Naruto, causing a massive grin to form on both their faces.

"To think a shinobi could come along and befriend the bijuu, and have them offer him assistance. Truly remarkable." The Sage of Six Paths said as he watched Naruto with a small smile on his face.

"Obito too... Naruto was the one to save Obito, and drag him out of the darkness." Kakashi said as he looked at his student talking with the tailed beasts, as if they were long lost friends.

"Hmm then when I see Obito I'll have to have him tell me all about it." The Sage said

Suddenly Kakashi started to collapse, but he was quickly caught by Sakura.

"Sensei! Are you alright!" Sakura said worried that Kakashi was hurt.

"I'm fine Sakura, I'm just exhausted." Kakashi said as Sakura helped him stand up.

Just then Naruto walked up to the group, just as the reanimated Hokage were getting ready to return to their proper place in the after life.

Naruto walked up his father and they exchanged heartfelt goodbyes, causing both of them to tears. Naruto wished he could have more time with his father, but he knew he didn't belong in this world. But it still broke his heart to see his father slowly fade away, until there was nothing left.

"Farewell dad, I love you and mom so much." Naruto said as he rubbed the tears from his eyes.

Sakura and Kakashi were both saddened to see Naruto have to say goodbye to his father. Sasuke just looked on with an emotionless mask.

Naruto turned to all the bijuu, who were discussing what they planned to do now that they were free. The Sage of Six Paths explained that since Naruto had all their chakra in him, that he was a sort of meeting place for them. That if they ever wanted to talk, they could do it through him.

"So how do we undo the Infinite Tsukuyomi? Do you need our chakra?" Kurama said asking the question that was on everyone's mind.

"No all we need is Naruto, since he has all your chakra in him, and Sasuke's rinnegan." The Sage explained, but an uneasy feeling washed over him as he looked at Sasuke.

"Now what about you Sasuke?" The Sage asked narrowing his eyes.

Sasuke paused for a moment before he answered.

"Let me think about it," Sasuke said as he lowered his head and his eyes darkened. "But first... I'm going to kill all the Kage."

This shocked everyone, but Hagoromo, who had a a sneaking suspicion about Sasuke ever since the battle ended.
