Shuimen glanced around the room. Aside from a few stools and fishing rods, there was practically nothing else. In the center of the room was a small pond, where two elderly people were sitting quietly, each holding a fishing rod, fishing. They didn't even look at the two men as they entered, nor did they put down their fishing rods.

P.S.: Please rate, give flowers and monthly tickets, thank you everyone!

Chapter Twenty-Six: Granny Chiyo

Minato and Maki exchanged a glance, then each found a seat and sat down. None of the four spoke; they simply sat quietly. Two were fishing, while the other two stared blankly at the pond.

A moment later, Chiyo, who still had a lot of things to deal with, finally couldn't hold back any longer and spoke to Ebizo:

"You didn't call me here just to watch you fish, did you? Just say what you want to say, I have a lot of things to take care of! I don't have time to waste here with you!"

Minato and Maki remained silent, simply watching Ebizo. One was from another village, the other a junior from Sunagakure; neither was in a convenient position to explain at this time. Therefore, the burden of explaining fell on Ebizo's shoulders! Seeing that neither of them intended to explain, Ebizo could only smile wryly, knowing he had to step in. After thinking for a moment, he said:

"This may sound unbelievable, but it is absolutely true. I hope you will listen to it!" After saying this, Ebizo paused, then summarized his thoughts and slowly recounted his memories as a reborn person.

Perhaps fearing that his explanation was not clear enough, or perhaps worried that his sister would not be able to accept it, Ebizo spoke very slowly this time, pausing between sentences, and it took him more than an hour to finish explaining the matter.

Granny Chiyo kept her eyes closed the entire time, remained silent, and showed no unusual expression, as if nothing had happened to her! After Ebizo finished speaking, she simply opened her eyes quietly, then focused intently on the pond and resumed fishing! However, her hands were trembling slightly at this moment!

Seeing that Granny Chiyo didn't speak, the other three also fell silent. After a long while, Granny Chiyo finally spoke:

"So this is the reason why the Hidden Cloud Village withdrew its troops when the situation was so favorable?"

“Yes, I’ve already spoken with the Hidden Cloud Village. The Third Raikage is already discussing the withdrawal of troops with the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning! Moreover, to atone for his sins, he has handed over the position of Raikage to his son and chosen to retire,” Minato continued.

"Ha, you killed so many people from our Sand Village and you think you can just retire? There's no such thing as a free lunch," Granny Chiyo sneered.

"So what do you want?" Minato asked, frowning.

"At the very least, we must deal with the Third Raikage, who instigated this war! Only then will there be any possibility of reconciliation between the two sides."

Granny Chiyo snorted coldly. "The Sand Village, as a victim of this war, hadn't provoked anyone. They were innocently caught in the crossfire because the Cloud Village wanted to expand its power. To put it simply, the Cloud Village had indeed bullied the Sand Village. If they were to swallow their pride and accept a peace agreement now, not only would other ninja villages think of the Sand Village, but even the Sand Village's own ninjas would look down on their village!"

As the saying goes, once the hearts of the people are scattered, the team becomes difficult to lead! In order to unite the people of the Sand Village, Granny Chiyo cannot accept such a peace! Moreover, even if Granny Chiyo agrees to peace now, most people in the Sand Village will not agree to it.

"As you know, this is impossible. Neither the Fourth Raikage nor the Hidden Cloud Village would agree to hand over the Third Raikage to you! Besides rescuing Garura, the reason I came here is to tell you about the enemies the ninja world will face after the Fourth Shinobi World War," Minato said with some helplessness.

Upon hearing Minato's words, Ebizo and Granny Chiyo both looked at him. After a moment's thought, Minato slowly recounted the situation in the ninja world after the arrival of the Otsutsuki clan four times.

The more Chiyo and Ebizo listened, the more grim their expressions became, and worry crept onto their faces! When Chiyo heard about the Fourth Shinobi World War, she was shocked, but since it ended in victory, she hadn't taken it too seriously. Besides, her Fifth Kazekage, Gaara, and the savior of the shinobi world, Naruto Uzumaki, had such a close relationship! Their two villages later became staunch allies, so she wasn't worried about her village being destroyed!

But things are different now. After the Otsutsuki clan descended, as Minato said, Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha were defeated, their village was destroyed, and the Kazekage, the ninjas and civilians of Sunagakure will all be killed in the future. How could they not be worried about this?

Minato finally finished speaking. Granny Chiyo's face was grim. She forced down her worries and said, "So you're saying that in the future, almost all ninjas will be dead?"

Minato thought for a moment and said heavily, "Yes, they're all dead!"

After hearing this, Chiyo paused for a moment before saying, "If you can provide evidence to prove that what you just said is true, I can represent Sunagakure and Kumogakure to sign a peace treaty!"

Minato nodded and said, "I have a memory orb left by Naruto here. I want to take it out and let everyone in the ninja world watch it after we've dealt with the problems in the ninja world!"

Chiyo nodded, saying nothing more. In truth, Granny Chiyo also didn't want to fight anymore. In terms of overall national strength, Kumogakure was far superior to Sunagakure. They not only possessed two tailed beasts, but their Jinchuriki could perfectly control them! Such strength was beyond Sunagakure's ability to contend with! Sunagakure only had Shukaku, a tailed beast, and it was uncontrollable, making it utterly useless in war!

Moreover, they also have the Third Raikage and his son, both of whom are Kage-level fighters. If other ninja villages don't participate in the battle, the Sand Village alone is no match for the Cloud Village!

Therefore, if Minato can prove that what he said is true, Granny Chiyo would be very happy to take this opportunity to reconcile with Kumogakure!

With this crucial step concerning the survival of the ninja world, Granny Chiyo's concession at this point only gives the impression of prioritizing the greater good, not cowardice! The impact on the village will also be minimized.

"Then I'll withdraw the troops back to the border first. Once you produce the evidence, I'll consult with the Fourth Kazekage and the Hidden Cloud Village to sign a peace treaty."

As an advisor to the Sand Village, Granny Chiyo has the authority to do so! Minato nodded, knowing that this was the biggest concession Granny Chiyo could make!

Like Karura, Granny Chiyo still had some doubts. However, like Karura, she believed that Minato wasn't lying to her, and with her brother and Baki as witnesses, she trusted that the two wouldn't betray Sunagakure. Besides, many recent events defied common sense. All these factors combined made her trust Minato and Ebizo's words.

Of course, this is only temporary. For her to fully believe him, Minato would at least have to bring out Naruto's memory orb!

"There are a few more things I'd like to confirm with you," Granny Chiyo suddenly said, glancing at Maki and Ebizo.

"Then I'll excuse myself for a moment," Minato said.

"No need. This is no secret to you, and our two countries have a good relationship. There's no need to hide this from you."

After saying this, Granny Chiyo closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then opened her mouth to ask in a slightly trembling voice:

"The Third Kazekage has really sacrificed himself, hasn't he?"

Maki and Ebizo exchanged a glance, both remained silent for a moment, and then nodded heavily!

"Then, was it really Scorpion who killed him?" Granny Chiyo's voice trembled even more violently!

Ebizo and Maki both knew very well that the old woman in front of them had already lost her son and daughter-in-law during the Second Shinobi World War. If even her grandson betrayed the village now, it would be another devastating blow to her.

She was even forced to issue an order to hunt down her own grandson, but reality is reality, and no one can change it! Almost all the reborn individuals knew about this! The reason it hadn't spread was because Maki and Haibi had kept the order hidden! But secrets can't stay hidden forever; they could suppress it for a while, but not forever. Sooner or later, the truth would come out!

Since they couldn't hide it any longer, they had no choice but to tell the truth. But when they saw Granny Chiyo's expectant eyes, all the courage they had mustered vanished instantly! In the end, they could only lower their heads in silence.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, how could Granny Chiyo not know what was going on? She just smiled bitterly and lowered her head. Ebizo next to her wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how to start, so he could only remain silent in the end.

After a long while, Granny Chiyo finally came to her senses and said with a bitter tone, "Then can you tell me how I will die in the future? And what happened to Sasori in the end?"

Ebizo chose to skip over these two questions at the time because he didn't know how to tell his sister that she had personally killed Sasori in the end! Ebizo knew that personally killing the traitor who betrayed the village was a duty his sister couldn't shirk... but

What if that person was his own grandson? Ebizo had never encountered such a situation before, so he didn't know what his sister's feelings were when she did it!

Ebizo tried to open his mouth several times, but couldn't utter a single complete sentence! But he was facing Granny Chiyo! Knowing his younger brother as he did, she probably already knew most of what was going on! She murmured to herself with a hint of relief, "Perhaps this is the best ending!"

PS: This book has been officially renamed "Rebirth in the Ninja World," and everyone starts off resurrected! Hope you all will support it!

Chapter Twenty-Seven Orochimaru

The three people present fell silent upon hearing their words! What does it feel like to kill your loved one with your own hands? They wouldn't know, or perhaps they didn't want to know!

Just then, Granny Chiyo said, "Alright, I have some things to take care of, I'll be going now."

After saying that, she turned and left! Perhaps Granny Chiyo really had something to attend to, or perhaps she simply wanted to escape and give herself time to adjust. In any case, Granny Chiyo was gone!

After seeing Granny Chiyo leave, Minato also took his leave! Ebizo didn't try to stop him, he just nodded!

After receiving the information from Minato, Ebizo knew he still had many things to deal with! Not long after Minato stepped out of the room, he followed him!

After leaving Ebizo's place, Minato and Maki remained silent, creating a somewhat heavy atmosphere. However, neither of them seemed to notice, and they continued walking towards Karura's house.

After a silence that lasted about 20 minutes, they finally arrived outside the Gallo house. Maki stepped forward, intending to knock, but then hesitated, withdrew his hand, and asked:

Do you think we can defeat the Tsutsuki clan?

The Fourth Hokage pondered for a moment and said, "I can't answer that question for you, because I myself don't know if I can defeat them. But for the ninja world, for the village, and for my family, no matter how difficult it is, I will try."

Machi didn't say anything, just knocked on the door, but his expression was noticeably more relaxed! Temari opened the door again, nodded slightly when she saw the two of them, and then invited them inside!

At this moment, Tsunade had finished examining Karura and was sitting on the sofa drinking tea. When she saw Minato return, she nodded to him!

Minato checked the time and said, "It's getting late, let's head back first! I'll come back with Lady Tsunade tomorrow!"

Seeing the time, Karura and Maki originally wanted Minato and Tsunade to stay overnight at their house, but after thinking about it, the two declined!

Under Tsunade's treatment, Karura's physical condition has improved significantly. She just needs to follow the prescription Tsunade gave her to continue her treatment! However, just in case, Tsunade will try to come and check on her condition every few days!

As for staying here, forget it! Gaara exists as the village's Jinchūriki, and the Jinchūriki is a village's top secret. Although Konoha and Sunagakure have a good relationship now, there are some things that should be avoided!

As for Minato and Tsunade's high-profile appearance in Sunagakure, firstly, Rasa wasn't there, and most of the other high-ranking members were reincarnated individuals who knew perfectly well why Minato and Tsunade were there! After all, few people who reach the top are fools! Therefore, they would be happy to help Minato suppress this matter. Secondly, they wanted to let those reincarnated individuals in Sunagakure who hadn't gone to the battlefield know that reincarnated individuals existed elsewhere besides Sunagakure, and that they weren't fighting alone!

Minato has basically achieved his goal in coming to Sunagakure! It's time to say goodbye! After giving Karura some instructions, Minato handed the kunai engraved with the Flying Thunder God seal to Temari and her brother, asking them to keep it safe. Then he left Sunagakure and returned to Konoha using the Flying Thunder God technique!

"Your ninjutsu is really convenient!" Tsunade exclaimed upon arriving in Konoha. It would only take her and Minato a day to get to Sunagakure, but only a moment to return. Minato smiled but did not reply.

This is the first floor of Minato's house. The first floor serves as an emergency shelter, and it's usually deserted. Minato used the Flying Thunder God Technique to fly here because he was afraid of suddenly appearing and startling Kushina.

After coming out from the first floor, Minato invited Tsunade to stay at his house temporarily. This would make it easier for her to help take care of Kushina and also make it easier to take her to the Sand Village! Tsunade didn't stand on ceremony with Minato and readily agreed!

After they returned to the second floor, they found that Kushina was already resting. Minato simply heated up some of the food that Kushina had left for him and Tsunade, tidied up the guest room for Tsunade to rest, and then the two of them went back to their respective rooms!

In the following days, Minato would take Tsunade to the Sand Village to check on Gara's health, and he didn't return to the Sand Village until she recovered.

After finishing with Karura, Tsunade began to help Kushina recover!

As usual, after getting up, Minato prepared breakfast for Kushina and Tsunade and then went out. He hadn't gone far when he received a message from the Anbu, asking him to go find the Third Hokage!

Without hesitation, Minato immediately headed towards the Third Hokage's office. He arrived shortly afterward. Inside the Hokage's office, besides the Third Hokage and Nara Shikaku, there was also one of the Sannin and Orochimaru. Minato was visibly taken aback when he saw Orochimaru upon entering the room!

"Long time no see, Minato! How have you been?" Orochimaru greeted Minato first.

"It's been a long time, Mr. Orochimaru. You..." Minato reacted, and was about to reply when he was interrupted by a loud cough!

"Ahem," the Third Hokage coughed, interrupting Minato, and said, "Orochimaru just returned to Konoha today. I've already told him about what happened after the Fourth Shinobi World War. As for whether there's a specific way to revive Naruto, he said he can only say after you arrive."

Immediately, everyone's eyes turned to Orochimaru. Unfazed, Orochimaru simply licked his lips and said:

"I've just heard the Third Hokage explain the specifics! I can't do anything about it right now; I need to study the memory orb Naruto left behind to determine the exact details."

Minato nodded, then took out the memory orb and handed it to Orochimaru, who accepted it without hesitation. After accepting it, Orochimaru said to Minato:

"If possible, I'd like a share of Kurama's chakra, as well as Minato's and Kushina's chakra."

Minato nodded in agreement! Orochimaru then took out the chakra storage device he had developed and handed it to Minato before stepping aside.

"The peace talks with Sunagakure have concluded. Here is the peace agreement; you can take a look!" The Third Hokage then handed a copy of the agreement to Minato.
