The ninja world is reborn, and everyone is resurrected at the start.

Seeing this, Yashamaru, Temari, and Kankuro all looked at Gaara with exceptional tenderness. They secretly resolved that in the days to come, they must protect their loved one.

Inside the Hokage Building, Kushina and Minato both looked rather grim. The Third Hokage silently smoked, Kakashi looked away, and even Nara Shikaku had his head down.

No one would speak to Minato and Kushina at this time. They were the ones who wronged Naruto first, and they also failed to live up to the couple's expectations. If they were to comfort the Fourth Hokage and his wife at this moment, it would seem hypocritical!

After about 15 minutes of silence, Obito gave Rin a look. Here, Rin truly died before the Fourth Hokage; even if others wronged her and her husband, it wouldn't be Rin's fault! Therefore, some things were best left for Rin to say.

"Kushina-nee, how about I go back with you?" Rin said!

After thinking for a moment, Kushina shook her head and said, "It's still early. I think we can play a segment more. What do you guys think?"

After seeing Naruto and Gaara's memories, Kushina couldn't wait to learn more about her son!

Minato naturally had no objections, but the others felt guilty towards the couple, and wouldn't hesitate to object to such a small matter.

"Heh." As always, Kurama said nothing, only let out a cold snort, and then silently channeled chakra into the memory orb.

After a brief pause, the video resumed playing slowly.

At this moment, in Konoha Square, ninjas and civilians were having a heated discussion.

"I don't even know what will happen to Gaara in the future, I'm so excited!"

"Exactly, I'm also very curious about what will happen to him later."

"Don't worry about that! The original Gaara became the Fifth Kazekage, and because of his relationship with the Sixth Kazekage, there was the most interaction between Konoha and the Sand Village."

"How do you think those monsters turned into humans?"

Jinchuriki were a village secret, known only to Jonin. Even in the future, Sakura Haruno, the Fifth Hokage's student, wasn't entirely clear on the matter and needed Kakashi and Granny Chiyo to explain! Therefore, many people only knew through hearsay. However, after the Fourth Shinobi World War, Jinchuriki were no longer a secret; most Chunin knew about them.

"They're not monsters, they've just had their tailed beasts sealed away. Gaara, for example, had the One-Tailed Shukaku sealed away and became Shukaku's jinchūriki."

"This has nothing to do with them. They were just innocent bystanders. Those who lost loved ones because of the Tailed Beasts used them as vessels for hatred, harboring resentment towards them and causing them great suffering."

Some of the reborn individuals came forward to explain!

"What does 'jinchi' mean?" some commoners asked curiously.

"Let me tell you, a Jinchūriki is..."

People were discussing all sorts of issues, and as they talked, the video gradually played...

Upon seeing the video feed, the people who had been discussing fell silent and turned to look at the screen. The previously noisy Konoha Square instantly quieted down, all eyes fixed on the video.

Under everyone's gaze, the video slowly began to play...

Chapter Fifty-Eight: Memorial Service for Three Generations

This time, the scene appears in Naruto Uzumaki's room.

At this moment, Naruto's forehead and face were covered in gauze, and his waist was wrapped in bandages. The room was extremely messy, with various kinds of trash such as ate instant noodles and drunk milk scattered on the floor. In addition to these, there were also unwashed clothes. It looked like the room hadn't been cleaned for a long time!

Upon seeing this, Kushina's expression instantly changed! No one dared to speak, their eyes remaining fixed on the video screen.

In the video, Naruto Uzumaki seemed oblivious to all of this, simply sitting cross-legged on the bed, staring blankly at the ground, the image of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, appearing in his mind!

After a long while, Naruto finally came to his senses. He turned to look at the alarm clock on the bedside table, then stood up expressionlessly, picked up the black shirt on the bed, changed into it, and went out.

"If I remember correctly, this should be your memorial service, Third Hokage!" Nara Shikaku said upon seeing the screen.

"Heh... What do you think, Orochimaru?" Hiruzen Sarutobi asked, looking at Orochimaru.

"Really? Congratulations, Sarutobi-sensei. You're lucky to be able to attend your own memorial service," Orochimaru said hoarsely.

The crowd ignored them and continued watching the video!

[The scene shifts, and Naruto Uzumaki appears at the memorial service. Everyone is dressed in black. Naruto stands in the front row, and two advisors from Konoha are presiding over the memorial service. In front of the two Konoha advisors are portraits of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and those who sacrificed their lives in this great battle!]

Everyone had their heads bowed, their faces filled with sorrow, and no one spoke; the atmosphere was exceptionally heavy.

Then it started to rain, making the already somber atmosphere of the memorial service even more oppressive.

"No matter the circumstances, a ninja must never show their emotions; the mission must always be the top priority. Under no circumstances should they shed tears."

Naruto recalled the words his teacher had spoken during his classes at the Ninja Academy.

Watching their friends offer flowers to the portrait of the Third Hokage one by one, they were deeply saddened, but not a single one of them shed a tear!

Soon it was Naruto's turn to offer flowers. Looking at the portrait of the Third Hokage, memories of their time together flashed through Naruto's mind.

Naruto silently placed the flowers down, fighting back tears, turned around, and returned to the ranks.

"Teacher Iruka, why would someone risk their life for someone else?"

Looking at the stone statue of the Third Hokage, Naruto asked...

Iruka glanced at Naruto and then said:

"When a person dies alone, everything disappears—their past, present life, and future all vanish! Many people's attitudes towards war or other conflicts are surprisingly decisive!"

Jifeng was one of them. Among these dead people, some had dreams, but everyone has something they cherish most: their parents, brothers, friends, or lovers—people who are very important to them!

They trust and help each other, and from the moment they are born, they have a bond with the people they consider important, a bond that grows stronger with time!

This doesn't require any grand principles; anyone with that kind of connection will choose to do it! Because it's truly important.

"I always felt I could understand that feeling, but death is truly painful."

Naruto looked at the portrait of the Third Hokage and said...

"The Third Hokage didn't die in vain; he did leave us with something important! One day you'll understand why."

Kakashi said

“I think I can understand that feeling too,” Naruto said, turning to look at Kakashi.

"Sasuke, the rain has stopped," Sakura Haruno said, looking at Sasuke Uchiha.

Uchiha Sasuke looked up at the sky where the dark clouds had dispersed!

At this point, the memorial service also ended...

After the memorial service for "Goodbye, Iruka-sensei" ended, Naruto waved goodbye to Iruka.

"Goodbye," Iruka said, watching Naruto run towards Team 7.

After saying that, the screen went dark again.

The Konoha Plaza was eerily quiet, completely devoid of the lively discussions that had filled the previous videos. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was unusually heavy.

For ninjas, memorial services are nothing new. In this world, ninjas are always accompanied by death. Missions, assassinations, wars—almost every day, ninjas die. Dying peacefully in their old age is a luxury for ninjas! Therefore, almost everyone in the ninja world has attended a memorial service, and some have even attended more than one!

After seeing this video, they thought of their family and friends. Just as Iruka said, many people sacrificed their lives for Konoha and for their loved ones and friends!

"I never thought I'd be a ninja in the future, cough cough." Right now, Hayate Gekko is still a child. He's been sickly since childhood, and his dream is to become a ninja!

"Becoming a ninja isn't necessarily a good thing..." a nearby ninja sighed.

"That's right, my family members died because of a mission!" someone echoed.

"Ninjas deal with death every day. When you embark on this path, you'll find that you can suddenly die without even realizing it!"

"It's not as terrible as you say. The five major powers are now coexisting more and more peacefully, and the future looks even better."

Of course, some reborn individuals also came forward to offer explanations!

"That's right, that's right. So we should cherish our lives now. I'm off to go home and be with my family."

"Yes, yes, wait for me, let's go together since we're going the same way!"

Perhaps they were tired of watching, or perhaps they were infected by the sadness in the videos, but anyway, many people went home... Although I'll still come back to watch the videos tomorrow, I'll stop here for today.

This is the sentiment expressed by many who attended the Third Hokage's memorial service.

As more and more people left, before we knew it, there weren't many people left in the venue!

"Let's disperse!" Inside the Hokage Building, after hearing the report from the Anbu, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, said!

Having attended his own memorial service, he was clearly not in a good mood.

"Okay, we'll be going now!" Minato nodded, then took Kushina's hand and walked out of the Hokage's office!

Seeing that Minato had left, everyone else followed suit...

P.S.: Starting to update.

Chapter 59 Rosa's Sorrow (Second Update)

"How about we go to the Sand Village tomorrow to see Karura and Gaara?" Kushina suddenly said as they walked home!

It's already July, and Kushina's due date is in October. Meanwhile, Gaara has been born for half a year. Because Minato is very busy, Kushina and Minato Namikaze haven't been able to visit them yet!

After watching Gaara's video today, Kushina really likes Gaara. Considering the bond between him and her own son, Kushina feels she should go see Gaara and his mother before Naruto is born...

After Naruto is born, in order for Naruto to better absorb the memories from the memory orb, he definitely won't be able to see Gaara again before the Chunin Exams!

This makes it difficult for Kushina to meet Karura! Therefore, Kushina wants to take this opportunity to meet Karura.

"Alright! I'll take you there tomorrow," Minato said after thinking for a moment.

The next morning, Kushina and Minato got up early, had a simple breakfast, and then set off for Sunagakure.

The distance between Sunagakure and Konoha is actually quite far. Even for Minato, a round trip would take a full day, without using the Flying Thunder God Technique. If he did use the Flying Thunder God Technique...

"We've arrived," Minato said.

Kushina only closed her eyes for a moment, and they had already arrived at the Sand Village.
