Chapter 48 Commentary: Peanut from Team 7 is very important to Sasuke!
The red vs. blue PK match had only been going on for a few minutes when countless shocking comments flooded the screen.
The people posting comments were arguing non-stop about "Saxophone joining Orochimaru's side, should Naruto Uzumaki stop him?"
……
At this point, in the Valley of the End 1.0 timeline—
To stop Sasuke, Naruto and Sasuke had just gone through a fierce battle, and both were exhausted.
As the center of public opinion, they awkwardly covered their wounds, looking at the barrage of comments flashing across the screen in the mirror with surprise.
"Sasuke..."
Naruto pointed to the mirror in front of them and asked, "What kind of place is Myowadi?"
Sasuke, who had only carried out a few missions outside the village, exclaimed, "How should I know?!"
"Oh……"
Naruto paused for a few seconds and then asked, "Sasuke, what does 'poisonous fan' mean?" Although he wasn't very bright, he had a strong thirst for knowledge.
"have no idea!"
Sasuke is getting so annoyed by Naruto!!
Seeing that Sasuke was angry, Naruto didn't dare to ask any more questions about terms that neither of them understood.
"So, do you have the ability to defeat Orochimaru now?"
"I—" Sasuke paused for a moment.
To be honest, he himself wasn't confident that he could kill Orochimaru at this stage, and he didn't know how the people who posted these comments had that confidence for him!
"I..." Sasuke lowered his head and said softly, "I was prepared to be used as a vessel by Orochimaru and join his ranks. I thought that as long as I could kill Itachi..."
Sasuke couldn't bring himself to say what came next.
Because from the previously connected "Battle Bridge Timeline" and "Valley of the End 2.0 Timeline", he already knew the truth about Itachi's massacre of his clan.
Knowing what Sasuke was thinking, Naruto lowered his gaze.
Knowing that Orochimaru intended to use Sasuke as a vessel and that Sasuke might die if he went there, they did everything in their power to stop him.
But now, Konoha might be a more dangerous place for Sasuke...
This also put Naruto in a difficult position.
If Konoha is a more dangerous place for Sasuke, should he really still stop Sasuke?
……
The Land of Waves 2.0 Timeline —
"What should we do now, Sasuke?"
Shuiyue rested her arm between the hilt of the Executioner's Blade and her chin, hunching over and watching the fierce verbal battle between the "Red Team" and the "Blue Team" in the mirror with a bored expression.
Honestly, he felt that even the Fourth Shinobi World War he had seen in the mirror earlier might not have been as intense as this people's verbal sparring...
Sasuke's mind was in turmoil; all he wanted to do was see Itachi and find out the truth.
others……
He didn't know either.
I don't know how to find Itachi, I don't know if I should seek revenge on Konoha, and I don't know what to do in the future.
As Suigetsu watched the comments scroll by, bored, he tried to chat with Sasuke: "Didn't you plan to find someone to help you complete your plan ever since you joined Orochimaru? So even as a child, you were confident you could defeat Orochimaru?"
"No..." Sasuke said truthfully, "I just felt that if I couldn't even kill Orochimaru, how could I possibly take revenge on Itachi?"
He only realized that it was because Naruto and the others had delayed things that he had bought himself three years of time. He only found out later when he met Orochimaru and saw that Orochimaru had randomly chosen a subordinate as a vessel for the Reanimation Jutsu.
Shuiyue: "That 'red' player is more confident in yourself than you are."
"..." Sasuke didn't speak. Compared to the blue team who spoke up for Naruto, he actually disliked the red team who seemed to be speaking up for him more.
It's laughable that someone thinks they can truly understand his life just by knowing everything.
However, these are merely reckless impersonations of him, used to imagine and gain the sympathy and love that others cannot have.
It would only make him find it ridiculous and disgusting...
……
Samurai Bridge Timeline —
When Sasuke fought Danzo, his Mangekyou Sharingan was greatly depleted, and he could no longer see the words on the mirror.
But it's okay, White Zetsu appeared out of nowhere and read it out for him, word by word...
Upon hearing that "Itachi's goal is not whether to kill Orochimaru or not, but to help Sasuke break free from Orochimaru's control," Sasuke, who had been driven to madness, revealed a trace of unresolved sadness in his eyes.
Touching the spot where the curse mark once stood, she silently called out in her heart, "Brother..."
He didn't know why his future self stopped his plan to take revenge on Konoha, nor did he remove the mask. If he didn't take revenge on Konoha, how would his future self fill the pain of losing his loved ones?
The pain in his eyes and body caused Sasuke to cry out in agony...
pain……
It hurts so much... Brother...
Sasuke's almost unfocused eyes seemed to clear again; he seemed to see the familiar Uchiha clan grounds once more. He saw his kind clansmen again, his stern father, his smiling mother, and his brother welcoming him home…
I want to go back to my childhood, I really want to go back to my childhood...
I want to go back to the time when my father, mother, and brother were all by my side...

[Blue][What kind of weird species is the red team above? Even I, a Sasuke die-hard fan, can't stand it! Whether it's Naruto, Itachi, or Sakura, Kakashi, or Peanut, they are all extremely important to Sasuke.] 346 people liked this.
Boruto Timeline —
Having just finished fighting Momoshiki Otsutsuki, Naruto, Sasuke, and the Five Kage were all exhausted and sat on the ground.
The above is a comment that they could roughly understand and agreed with.
Each of these individuals is extremely important to Sasuke right now, someone he's willing to risk his life to protect.
but……
Naruto tilted his head and asked Sasuke, "Why don't I see Sarada's name? And who is that Peanut guy?"
The other shadows had the same question, and for a moment everyone's attention was focused on Uncle Zuo.
"Don't, don't ask anymore..."
Sasuke subtly looked away, his fair face appearing very unnatural.
It's absolutely unbearable to recall. Sasuke doesn't know what possessed him back then! He actually listened to Kakashi's nonsense!
A bachelor who treats "Make-Out Paradise" like a textbook! What decent solutions can he come up with?!
Fourth Shinobi World War timeline—
"What is Peanut?" The four members of the Hawk Squad, including Orochimaru, looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Is that even a question?!" Karin puffed out her chest, head held high, brimming with confidence. "Of course, it's the nickname Sasuke gave me!!"
"...Huh??" Suigetsu's expression was exaggerated. "Are you serious, Karin?"
Karin raised her fist. "What?! What's wrong with you?!"
Suigetsu and Karin bicker as usual, while Orochimaru and Jugo remain silent as background figures.
……
Aside from Sasuke from the Boruto timeline, no one knows who "Little Peanut" in the previous comment is.
Leaving the audience in suspense, the comments continued to pour in one after another.
[Blue] [A Sasuke fan of ten years! I also think choosing the red side is too extreme. I believe that although Naruto and Sasuke have opposite personalities, many details show that Naruto actually understands himself better than Sasuke. He is also one of the people who truly considers things from Sasuke's perspective.] 97 people think this is great.
[Blue] [Yes! Naruto may seem to be hindering Sasuke's revenge, but what he's really preventing is Sasuke from severing ties with everyone. He knows all too well the pain of loneliness and doesn't want Sasuke to suffer that kind of loneliness.] 123 people liked this.
[Red][So that's his reason for stopping Sasuke's revenge? He could have easily helped Sasuke kill all his enemies!! He keeps saying it's for Sasuke's sake, so why doesn't he just kill everyone in Konoha? Frankly, it's all for his own desire to become Hokage!!] 20 people liked this.
