Thinking of this, Naruto couldn't help but smile.

"Why can't I laugh when I see this scene?"

"That's right! Before, when I saw Jiraiya-sama spying, I was either jealous or contemptuous! But this time, I actually felt a strange sadness..."

Every time the video plays and shows Jiraiya spying, the ninja world is thrown into chaos!

Either Jiraiya is sent flying by Tsunade, causing a huge bang, or the entire ninja world unites to attack him!

But this time there was an unusual silence, a silence so profound it was almost oppressive!

Even Tsunade, who had always been extremely disgusted by Jiraiya's behavior, fell silent for a moment...

Naruto continued walking aimlessly, lost in thought!

When recalling how he tore his clothes because of his cultivation practice!

Naruto unconsciously touched the zipper of the shirt he was wearing!

Because Jiraiya bought it for him!

"Hey, Naruto, you seem to have really shone on the mission! Everyone in the village is talking about you. How about we have a chat after all this time? Want to go to Ichiraku for some ramen?"

Clearly, Iruka had also learned of Jiraiya's death and came specifically to find him!

【"never mind!"】

But at this moment, Naruto was in no mood at all, and even refused his favorite ramen!

"Sigh... He even refused his favorite ramen, you can only imagine how heartbroken he was!"

"When a person is sad, there are five stages: denial, anger, negotiation, depression, and finally acceptance. But Naruto has jumped directly from the first stage to the fourth stage, which is obviously not normal!"

"Naruto, please cry. I'm really worried about you like this!"

"That's exactly what I mean, it's his condition that's most worrying!"

Since the video started airing, Naruto has gained all sorts of fans, some of whom are calm and collected, while others are older mothers who are all very worried about Naruto's strange behavior.

"Then let's gamble with your best skill, gambling. Bet on my death! Because you always lose at gambling! And conversely, when I come back alive..."

"Haha, just kidding! I'm very grateful!"

[“Nice to meet you, I’m Jiraiya! You can give me the love letter later, please take care of me! Hehe…”]

After handing over her tasks, Tsunade walked out of the office, but gradually she felt too weak to walk any further! She stopped, leaning against the wall…

Memories begin to flow backward, starting from their last meeting, slowly rewinding!

Middle age, youth, adolescence, and finally, they stopped at the moment when they first met!

At this moment, Tsunade truly began to grieve. A tear rolled down her cheek, hit the ground, blossomed, and shattered.

She gritted her teeth, trying to hold back her tears, but she couldn't stop them. Soon, another drop fell, then another, and the tears flowed more and more uncontrollably...

But she still bit her lip tightly, refusing to cry out even as tears streamed down her face!

【"asshole..."】

"You win once, but lose your whole life, is that it?!"

While resting on the way, Onoki recalled Tsunade's life and murmured to himself!

"This might be the only time Tsunade has ever won a gamble in her life!"

But isn't the price of winning too high?

Heitu stood up and, when no one was looking, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve!

"This is something she probably desperately didn't want to win, but she won in the end!"

Mei Terumi, who is also a woman, spoke out with feeling!

"Your death will break my heart, but the responsibility I bear will keep me going... This is perhaps the price of becoming Hokage!"

"Uchiha Itachi muttered to himself in the viewing area!"

"Tsunade, I...you..."

At the Hokage Building, Jiraiya was somewhat flustered and tried to explain, but in the end, he couldn't even utter a complete sentence!

After struggling for a moment, Jiraiya gave up, sighed softly, and then quietly looked at Tsunade!

He originally wanted to protect her for the rest of her life, so that she would never have to face separation or death again!

But in the end, he broke his promise!

At this moment, Tsunade had her head down, and no one present could see her expression!

"Time is the most terrible enemy; it never waits for you or takes care of you!"

When you miss something, it may not even give you a chance to regret it!

It lets you watch its graceful departure with regret, then secretly laughs at you from some corner!

Kazayuki sighed. Watching the video of Tsunade and Jiraiya's relationship, he thought of his deceased wife!

Then, looking solemnly at Tsunade and Jiraiya, he continued:

"Those who do not know how to cherish the people around them will be severely punished!"

This punishment will accompany you throughout your life; it will linger in your mind whenever you have free time.

As someone who's been through it, I hope you won't end up like me, only regretting it after you've lost it!

"Thanks…"

Although she didn't look up, Tsunade still spoke in a low voice!

"Obito, why is it that in the end, those who are left behind are often the ones who suffer the most?"

Lin looked at Obito Uchiha with utmost seriousness and asked!

"...I'm sorry, Lin, I can't answer that question!"

For the first time, Obito Uchiha did not answer Rin's question!

"After all, I couldn't be with you in my past life either!"

The first sentence he said was for Lin, while the second sentence was something he silently told himself!

"Kakashi, do you know?"

Lin continued to ask!

"I'm sorry, Rin, I don't know either. Like Lady Tsunade, I'm one of those who's always been left behind..."

Kakashi habitually flashed his signature smile to mask the sadness in his heart.

Chapter 131 Naruto's Tears

"Kakashi, Obito, how about we make a promise?"

After a long silence, Lin finally spoke!

"What agreement?"

Kakashi asked, somewhat puzzled.

"In this life, no matter what happens, we must never give up on each other. We must live well together, grow old together, play until we're old, and eat until we're old!"

"Okay, I promise you!"

"Ok, no problem!"

Obito and Kakashi answered almost simultaneously!

The overlap of their voices startled the two of them!

Lin couldn't help but laugh after seeing their reactions!

Hearing Rin's laughter, Kakashi and Obito exchanged a glance, and then both smiled simultaneously...

Although their laughter wasn't loud, it was still heard by the people in the Hokage's office!

The people who were still immersed in grief felt their sorrow lessen somewhat after hearing the laughter...

The scene shifts, and the video now appears in Naruto's room!

Naruto was sitting on the bed with his head down, one hand supporting his face.

The room was very quiet!

It was so quiet that even the sound of the alarm clock seemed unusually jarring!

Meanwhile, Naruto's instant noodles were ready! The steam forced open the sealed lid, releasing a rich aroma...

If it were the usual Naruto, he would have already started eating without even waiting!

But Naruto didn't react at all; he remained seated in that position...

After a long while, or perhaps Naruto grew tired of sitting, he slowly stood up, then lowered his head, opened the door, and walked out…

It was already late at night outside, and there was no one in sight!

The croaking of frogs came from the grass, and occasionally a dog barked in the distance…

Naruto walked silently forward with his hands in his pockets. After walking for a while, he passed a 24-hour store!
