Chapter 131.2 : Sage of Six Paths?

"Kushina, I have lived for many years, and Mito is an old friend. You aren't afraid of losing your life when you claim someone to be your goddaughter". Naruko Uzumaki rolled her eyes.

"At that time, you were just a pet, so it doesn't matter." Kushina excitedly revealed her oral fixation.

Uzumaki Naruko felt the urge to speak, but Namikaze Minato intervened at the opportune moment and halted her: "Kushina, there are other matters to address. Let's wait until we're resurrected. What do you think?"

The compensation he received as a contractor was resurrection, along with the added bonus of a more refined Senju physique. Despite the low level of development, it significantly enhanced Minato's prowess in the ninja world.

As for Uzumaki Naruto, he obtained a high-level resurrection card capable of reviving individuals deceased for less than 20 years—just enough to bring back Uzumaki Kushina.

"Yes, let's prioritize resurrection."

"I want to witness Konoha with my own eyes now and catch up with sister Tsunade."

Uzumaki Kushina's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Observing this, Namikaze Minato subtly twitched the corners of his eyes.

Are you sure you don't want to quickly indulge in some luxury purchases?

However, the Fourth Hokage, a warm man with high emotional intelligence, chose not to voice his true thoughts.

"Receive your reward!"

Namikaze Minato accepted the reward first.

"What!"

The remaining glimmer of gold light fell upon Naruto's side in the Hokage's office.

Countless specks of light fluttered in the air.

A Shinigami phantom materialized, withdrawing the sword from its mouth and slicing open its stomach.

The blue light and shadow, symbolizing the soul, soared.

Within the stomach of the Shinigami, Hiruzen Sarutobi quietly wiped away non-existent tears from the corner of his eyes.

If only one could be left, perhaps his hardships would be a bit lighter.

A light emitted from Naruto's abdomen, sending a hook into the spotlight.

Under the spotlight, Namikaze Minato, the Fourth Hokage, possessing the Senju physique and Nine Tails Jinchūriki identity, was perfectly resurrected.

"Everyone, it's been a long time!"

Namikaze Minato greeted those in the office with his usual sunny smile.

"Minato, welcome!" The heartfelt voices of Nara Shikaku, Akamichi Choza, and others echoed.

Jiraiya patted Namikaze Minato on the shoulder, feeling a slight sting in his nose, unable to articulate his emotions, ultimately expressing it with a simple "good."

"Fourth Hokage seems to be doing well." Hashirama smiled.

"If Minato hadn't died, the Uchiha clan and Hizashi wouldn't have perished. Jiraiya and I might have stepped down long ago, and Konoha would be better off," Tsunade concurred.

"It's better now," observed Senju Hashirama, glancing at Uchiha Ran.

"Absolutely," Tsunade declared, puffing out her chest proudly.

"Tsuna-chan, doesn't it seem to have anything to do with you?"

"Why wouldn't it matter?"

"Are there relationships?"

"Of course."

"What relationship?"

"Senior and siblings, of course."

"Tsuna-chan, sometimes men are too clueless, and women can take the initiative."

"I don't understand what you're saying."

"I think back then, it was your grandma who pursued me."

"How dare you say that in front of grandma?"

"Why wouldn't I dare? If it weren't for your grandmother pursuing me, I would have been hot with Mada..."

*Crack!*

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Recording pen."

"Hey, Tsuna-chan, Grandpa was just talking casually."

"Then who do you think is the biggest fat sheep in the ninja world?"

"I, Grandpa, I'll do it!"

Except for Uchiha Ran, no one heard the conversation between the First Hokage and the Sixth Hokage. No one knew how speechless the two were.

"It's really a grandfather," Uchiha Ran laughed inwardly.

At this moment, Naruto opened his eyes and stood up, holding an extra card in his hand.

"I will resurrect my mother, Uzumaki Kushina!" Naruto tore the card and made a wish.

Tsunade stopped arguing with Senju Hashirama, her beautiful eyes filled with anticipation. The advanced resurrection card wasn't enough to revive her brother, Senju Nawaki. 

But the advanced resurrection card covered a range of 20 years, and a more advanced one would surely work.

"Ah~"

Golden List lowered a beam, and within it, a body rapidly formed. First the red hair, then the clothes, and finally, the body. When the light faded, Kushina, with the same smile as Namikaze Minato, slowly stretched out a finger.

Perception.

Truly a "resurrection."

Kushina hugged Naruto. "Naruto, Mom can take good care of you in the future."

"Mmmm, Mom!" Naruto nodded happily, tears streaming down his nose. He looked ugly, but no one laughed.

Sasuke's eyes were filled with envy, but it wasn't jealousy—it was more of a blessing. "Idiot, congratulations."

"I want to revive my father and mother quickly." Sasuke clenched his fists.

"Well," Kushina was infected by Naruto and couldn't help but cry.

Namikaze Minato's nose was sore, and he suppressed his tears, smiling. "In the future, we will live as a family of three, striving to create good memories and fill in those pasts."

"Yeah!" Kushina and Naruto nodded.

Uchiha Ran watched this scene with interest. "Are you sure it's not three but five?"

Everyone was stunned. But when they saw Namikaze Makoto and Uzumaki Naruko appearing behind Namikaze Minato and Naruto, everyone smiled.

"It's really five. Yo!"

The Golden List obviously did not understand the warmth of people, and the bell still rang on time. A stereoscopic image appeared, but after seeing his appearance clearly, all eyes widened.

Uchiha Ran's eyes narrowed. "Things are getting interesting."

Near the Land of Winds, Uchiha Madara had a bad premonition.

"Is he Sage of Six Paths!?"

"Isn't he dead?"
