Plot Naruto and the leaf ninja drive off a group of White Zestu posing as fallen members, Naruto feeling lonely over seeing his friends' impressed families while finding arguing with her parents. When Sakura later uses Naruto as an excuse to avoid her parents after he got into an argument with, the two are confronted by who subjects them to a deluded version of the Infinite Tsukuyomi: The Limited Tsukuyomi ( 限定月読, Gentei Tsukuyomi).
Naruto and Sakura end up in a genjutsu-based reality filled with polar opposites of their friends which reflect their desires: namely a version of who remained in the village and Naruto's parents are alive while Sakura's have been dead for years. Naruto and Sakura also learn of a masked ninja attacking jinchuriki who is after the Red Moon Scroll which Jiraiya sacrificed his life in sending to Tsunade for safe keeping. While Naruto was more focused on returning to their reality before deciding to take in having a family, Sakura enjoyed being an orphan until the loneliness starts getting to her along with the antics of the reality's Sasuke. The village is then attacked by the masked ninja, revealed to be an ally of an incorporeal Tobi as he abducts Sakura to hold ransom for the Red Moon Scroll. Realizing the genjutsu parents are not like his own, Naruto takes the Red Moon Scroll while running to save Sakura and face the masked ninja. Naruto is overpowered by the masked ninja and his Nine Masked Beasts, when saved by the Genjutsu version of Itachi and Akatsuki. While the Akatsuki dispatch the Masked Beasts, Naruto battles the masked ninja who is revealed to be his Genjutsu world counterpart: Menma ( メンマ).
Menma absorbs the defeated masked beasts to manifest the Black Nine-Tails, with the Nine-Tails making a temporary truce with Naruto, to defeat its counterpart. But this all played to Tobi's plan as he possesses Menma so he can personally extract the weakened Nine-Tails while completely wiping Naruto's mind. Sakura saves Naruto before the Nine-Tails is extracted and Naruto is inadvertently reminded of a memory, that allows him to regain the rest of his memories just in time to save Sakura, and he then manages to force Tobi out of Menma and undo the Limited Tsukuyomi. Once back in their reality, after informing Tsunade of their ordeal, Sakura reunites with her parents while Naruto makes amends with Iruka while realizing that he already has a family in his friends.
