(The heroes proceed to the snow-covered castle of Ozma, where he and Spider-Man 2099 craft a crown at a well emitting green energy.)

Ozma: We are ready.

Spider-Man 2099: And the soul stealers?

Ozma: Keep them running. I am sure we'll find a use for the collected souls.

(Ozma and Spider-Man 2099 walk into the main building. Naruto and the others meanwhile quietly eliminate the guards, acting like ninjas. Teaming up with Invincible and Ladybug, they encounter a group of soldiers marching through the courtyard.)

Melty: Will they stand down, if ordered?

Mirella: No. Those are Aultcray's most loyal lieutenants.

Invincible: They must be neutralized if we are to shut down the soul stealers.

Liu Kang: Yes they do. We should split up.

(The heroes run to attack and start a massive battle in a wide courtyard with many soul stealers on large wooden pedestals. Hinata and Naruto run up to the rightmost soul stealer but at that very moment Minato emerges from the ground.)


Hinata: Stay behind me, Naruto.


Naruto: No. We fight together.

Minato throws his kunai at them, and they dodge, but Minato appears out of nowhere and hits hitata with his Rasengan while Naruto leaps over the debris and almost manages to attack Minato, but he grabs him and throws him away. He prepares another Rasengan, and hits both of them as they are launched against the castle wall. Naruto struggles to stand while Hinata groans in pain.)

Naruto: What's wrong?!

Hinata: Guh! My ribs. They may be broken.

(Minato walks up to them.)

Naruto: Guh! Help me up.

Naurto: No, Hinata. This time, I protect you. Believe it!

Minato: It is pointless to resist, Naruto Uzumaki.

Naruto: Come any closer and you'll feel the points of my blades.

(He pulls out his kunai threateningly.)

Minato: We are both disciples of Jiraiya, but I became a master.

(Minato calls the also "reincarnated" Hiruzen while Raphtalia comes in as they strike each other. Naruto and Minato exchange strikes, but with some kicks and an uppercut, Naruto brings Minato on his knees.)

Mileena: You are not the only student to have surpassed the master. Believe it!

(Naruto continues striking Minato, not giving him any chances to hit back, and manages to defeat him.)

Naruto: Pervy Sage would be so proud of me. Believe it!

(He runs up to Hinata.)

Hinata: Amazing, Naruto-kun. You really have what it takes to become a Hokage.

Naruto: I prefer earning the title, dearest Hinata.

(Naruto helps Hinata up.)

Hinata: Guh...

(Minato, meanwhile, seems to be struggling with himself...)

Minato: Uhh_Gah... Raaaaaahhh...

Naruto: We must leave. Quickly.

Minato: Son. Wait.

(Minato recovers his control over himself.)

Naruto: You are... my father?!
