Hinata: [Heavy breathing] Take this!

Hinata screamed as she created a powerful, dark chakra ball, ready to strike Sakura directly in her heart. She started to run towards Sakura, who closed her eyes and put her hands up in a defensive way. Just as Hinata was about to hit Sakura, a male groan echoed loudly. Sakura felt a strange, warm liquid splatter on her. She moved her hands and peeked through her fingers, her eyes widening in shock.

Sakura: [Gasps] NARUTO!?

Naruto was panting heavily, his body shielding Sakura as Hinata's hand pierced straight through his heart. Blood poured from the wound, pooling around his feet. Hinata's smirk froze as she realized the gravity of her mistake. Her eyes widened in horror at the sight of Naruto on the brink of death. She pulled her hand out of his body, stepping back in disbelief. In that moment, Hinata started to glitch, as if her good and evil sides were fighting for dominance over her consciousness.

Kōri: [Angrily] You fool! Stop acting dumb and fight her!

But Hinata couldn't hear her boss. She clutched her head and screamed as black magic and aura left her body, causing her to faint and fall to the ground.

Neji: [Worried] Hinata-sama! [Runs and catches her]

Sakura stood frozen in place, watching Naruto cough up blood. She immediately ran towards him, cradling his head in her lap.

Sakura: [Cries] Naruto! Please, you'll be fine. J-Just don't give up!

Naruto: [Coughs, weakly] Th-there's no point in that, Sakura...

Sakura: [Wipes tears] Of course there is! You never gave up! It's your way of the ninja, you can't-

Naruto: [Puts a bloody hand on Sakura's face] Sakura-chan?

Sakura: [Looks at Naruto, crying] Yes, Naruto?

Naruto: [Looks at Sakura with fading strength] Just so you know...I...I love you and I always will...

Sakura: I l-love you too...Naruto?

Naruto closed his eyes, letting out his last breath. His hand fell away from Sakura's face, lifeless.

Sakura: [Gasps] No, no, no, no! You can't die now, Naruto! You can't! Not now that our feelings are mutual! Not now when you have to achieve your dream of becoming Hokage! No!! Naruto!!!

Everyone looked towards Sakura with sorrowful expressions, unable to believe Naruto had died. Sakura held his body close, her tears falling onto his lifeless form.

Sakura: I'm sorry for all my past mistakes...I...I love you... [Wipes her tears]

Kōri watched the scene unfold with a dark chuckle. She glanced at Hinata, who lay unconscious, used as a mere tool in her plan.

Kōri: [Dark chuckle] If you are done with your show, it's my turn now. Ha!

Kōri released a burst of dark chakra, causing a fierce wind to blow across the battlefield. She began to transform into her ultimate form; her hair turned from black to white, her eyes became completely white, and her nails, dress, and lips changed to a chilling blue. The cold aura that surrounded her spread out, creating a snowy thunderstorm that made everyone on the battlefield shiver from the cold. Kōri stared at Sakura with icy determination.

Kōri: [Deep, cold voice] Now that I've become the highest of the highest, I will destroy you, Sakura! Winter always overpowers spring, Ha!

Kōri charged towards Sakura, her left hand brimming with ice-cold chakra, ready to kill. Sakura, feeling overwhelmed, closed her eyes, preparing for the end. Suddenly, she heard a voice in her head:
