In Vain

After hearing Chiyo's analysis, Ebizo immediately widened his eyes, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"So... So that's how it is. I actually didn't find out..."

Looking at the shocked Ebizo and the confident Chiyo, Zhang Miao's Wood Clone sighed helplessly.

"Sigh, I originally thought that I could at least cover for my main body. I didn't expect that I would be exposed so quickly. Granny, you are right. I am indeed a Wood Clone. As for my main body, it should have already arrived in the Land of River by now!"

"Hmm?"

Hearing Zhang Miao's Wood Clone, Chiyo immediately frowned.

"To the Land of River? Could it be that he is preparing to return to the Land of Fire to buy something? That's no wonder. After such a long time, I'm afraid that he has already finished the things he brought. How long will it take for him to return?"

"About half a month!" As soon as Chiyo finished speaking, Zhang Miao's Wood Clone immediately replied, "Purchasing things will take some time, and the main body also has some things to deal with."

"I understand!" Hearing Zhang Miao's Wood Clone, Chiyo immediately nodded, "Then I will ask another question. Is Ryu studying the forbidden technique and planning to revive someone?"

"Ah?"

Hearing Chiyo's words, Zhang Miao's wooden clone immediately revealed a surprised expression. Seeing his expression, Chiyo let out a long sigh.

"Sigh... It really is like this. Actually, when I saw Chiyu, I already guessed it. Although I do not know how Little Ryu did it, his final goal should be to revive my son and daughter-in-law, right?"

"Uh..." Hearing Chiyo's words, Zhang Miao's wooden clone immediately revealed a stunned expression, "How did you know?"

When Zhang Miao left, this was the reason she told him to let Chiyo accept Chiyu first. This way, when she recruited her son and daughter-in-law, it would be easier for her to accept them.

However, what Zhang Miao's Wood Clone did not expect was that before he could explain, Chiyo had already finished his explanation, so he was very surprised at this time.

Seeing Zhang Miao's Wood Clone look surprised, Chiyo immediately laughed.

"In fact, I have been doing this kind of research all along, and I also formulated a forbidden technique called the One Own's Life Reincarnation. Unfortunately, this forbidden technique is not perfect, and can be considered a failed technique. I did not expect that Little Ryu has already succeeded!

Speaking up to this point, a longing expression appeared on Chiyo's face.

"Maybe not long later, our family will be able to be united?"

Seeing her look full of longing, Ebizo frowned, "Sister, is it really possible to revive them?"

"What's impossible about that?" As soon as Ebizo finished speaking, Chiyo immediately glared at him.

"Now that Little Ryu has succeeded, Chiyu is the proof... Oh right, Chiyu's matter must not be discovered by others. Go to the village and find some trustworthy people to arrange a hidden guard. No one is allowed to approach this place. Go quickly!"

Seeing Chiyo's earnest face, Ebizo could only sigh helplessly.

"Sigh... Sister, I understand. I will go now. I just came back after much difficulty..."

Ebizo muttered as he walked out the door.

Seeing this scene, Chiyo revealed a smile once again. Then, he waved his hand at Zhang Miao's Wood Clone.

"Alright, go play with Gaara. Be careful not to let him find out. That child is very sharp!"

"Yes, I understand!"

Hearing her words, Zhang Miao's wood clone immediately turned around and went back to his room, while Chiyo began to take action and put the bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen.

After washing the bowls and chopsticks and wiping the table clean, Chiyo went to the puppet material room, and then grinned at Chiyu who was making puppets.

"If it's about making puppets... I can also help a little!"

Hearing Chiyo's words, Chiyu immediately turned around and nodded at her, "Then come in!"

"Okay!" Seeing that Chiyu did not reject her, Chiyo immediately nodded happily, and then walked into the room.

The main purpose of Chiyo's visit was obviously not to help Chiyu make puppets. After all, compared to those puppets that could not move, this Chiyu in front of her, who was exactly the same as her twenty years ago, was even more attractive.

In the next few days, besides normal work and rest, Chiyo and Chiyu spent the rest of the time in the puppet material room to create puppets.

While Chiyo was busy making puppets for Chiyu and getting to know each other, Zhang Miao and the others also came to the outside of Konoha.

Looking at the distant Konoha village, Zhang Miao asked Kushina.

"Kushina-san, do you know where the Mask Storage Temple of the Uzumaki Clan is?"

Although they were related by blood, Zhang Miao's feelings for Kushina were more towards benefactor, not his mother, so all along the way, he called her Kushina-san.

Maybe it was because of the memory of the Nether King setting, Kushina did not have any other reaction toward how Zhang Miao called her, but naturally agreed.

"Well, I know where that is. It's not far from the village. What are you going there for?"

"To remove the Dead Demon's seal with the mask and find a way to revive your husband!" Facing the problem, Zhang Miao chose to tell the truth.

"So that's how it is!"

Hearing Zhang Miao's words, there was a flash of worry in Kushina's eyes.

"But Minato used the Dead Demon Consuming Seal, and his soul has been taken away by the Dead Demon. I'm afraid it will be very dangerous to remove the seal!"

"Haha, it's okay!" Looking at the worried look on Kushina's face, Zhang Miao smiled at her, "Don't forget that I am Hades. The Demon is just my subordinate!"

Zhang Miao was obviously talking nonsense, but for the sake of Kushina's heart, he could only do this.

Kushina did not know this, but when she heard Zhang Miao's words, she suddenly showed a surprised look, "Eh? Is it like this?"

"Of course!" Looking at her puzzled face, Zhang Miao immediately nodded firmly, "I know the Demon very well. I always call him Little Didi!"

Everyone: "( ⊙ ⊙ ⊙)..."

"To actually call the Dead Demon "Little Didi", Lord Hades is so powerful!"

Looking at everyone's expression of worship, Zhang Miao's lips curled up again, and then he raised his eyebrows at Kushina.

"I have told you such an important secret. Now can you take me there?"

Regarding the resurrection of Minato, Kushina also had great expectations in her heart, but she hesitated because she was worried about Zhang Miao.

Now that she heard Zhang Miao say that the Demon was his subordinate, she put down her worries and immediately nodded.

"Let's go, I'll take you there right now!" With that, she immediately ran forward quickly.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Miao also followed along with Pakura and Hizashi. Soon, the four of them arrived outside the Mask Storage Temple of the Uzumaki Clan.
