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

Seeing her son in a dilemma, Kushina couldn't help but offer advice!

"It's no use, Kushina-nee. After we deal with the enemies in the video, there's still the Otsutsuki clan to contend with!"

This is much harder to solve than the problem shown in the video!

The main problem is that we don't know when they'll be back!

However, this suggestion was quickly rejected by Obito Uchiha!

"Hey..."

Unfortunately, Kushina had no choice but to return to the party!

"No rush, let's take it slow, we still have time!"

Seeing that his son was still unable to make a decision, Minato stepped forward and gently patted his shoulder.

[This is it! The Ten-Tails has finally seen Sakura Haruno!]

Without hesitation, its attack pierced towards Sakura Haruno!

"Dad, Mom, Kakashi-sensei, Ino, I've come to find you! Now we can never be apart again!"

[Faced with the Ten-Tails' attack, Sakura Haruno did not choose to evade; instead, she spread her arms out, just as she did at the beginning of the video!]

It was as if they were embracing something...

Chapter 264 The Ninja World Cannot Be Without Hope

[The video has frozen!]

[The video did not continue playing regarding Sakura Haruno's final fate.]

But almost no one believed she could survive...

"Even if you're alive, what's the point of living in a world without family, without a village, without friends?"

"This world," Mei Terumi said softly as she watched the video.

At this point, the video feed had completely gone dark!

[At that moment, a message appeared on the screen!]

[These words are not the same as before, written in a despairing font against a gray background!]

This time, it appears against a pure white background, with the word "hope" written on leaves in the distance!

The loveliness of life lies in its fragility, as fragile as a single thread, slowly winding itself into a snow-white cocoon.

Inside the cocoon lies both life and death; it all depends on our choices.

Nothing of true value stems from personal ambition or merely from a sense of duty, but from love and dedication to humanity and objective things.

All other responsibilities in life can be shared or transferred, but the responsibility for one's own life is something that everyone must bear entirely on themselves; they cannot rely on anyone else in the slightest.

"...What was the meaning of that last sentence?"

The video remained frozen on this sentence for about ten minutes before the image completely disappeared!

But the audience remained stunned for a long time, unable to recover from the shock of the video!

"I think I understand what the Sage of Six Paths is going to say first!"

"In this world," Nara Shikaku whispered in Naruto's house.

"What do you mean, Shikamaru?"

Kiba Inuzuka, Choji Akimichi, and the others, who were not very bright to begin with, stared longingly at Shikamaru Nara!

"This is really troublesome, how should I put it..."

Nara Shikamaru scratched the back of his head, summarized his thoughts, and then slowly said:

"His first point was about life choices!"

We're at a fork in the road right now. If we take the right path, we'll be the first video! If we take the wrong path...

Shikamaru didn't continue speaking, but everyone present understood perfectly well!

"What should I choose? How do I choose?"

Xiao Li continued to ask with a puzzled look.

"Think about it, in the video, whose departure led to the irreversible escalation of the situation?"

At this moment, Yamanaka Ino realized what was happening!

"You mean Naruto?"

Xiao Li said somewhat uncertainly!

The biggest difference between the first and second videos is that Naruto Uzumaki is not in it!

At this moment, Xiao Li finally realized what was happening!

"So if we choose 'life,' then Naruto has to stay, right?"

"No, it's not that simple!"

Just as Lee was about to speak up and try to persuade Naruto to stay, Kakashi Hatake spoke up:

"The second sentence was left for you, Naruto, by the Sage of Six Paths!"

Kakashi Hatake looked at Naruto Uzumaki and said!

At this moment, Minato, Naruto's father, finally spoke:

"Naruto, the Sage of Six Paths wants you to stay, but he doesn't want you to stay just because of responsibility or because he can't bear to!"

The reason you in the first video were able to accomplish so many impossible things is because you deeply love the ninja world and Konoha, and are even willing to sacrifice your life for them!

If you lose this part, even if you stay, you won't be able to do what you did in the first video!

"I..."

Naruto opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

"No rush. As long as we're here, the ninja world won't descend into chaos, so you have plenty of time to think things through!"

Obito Uchiha smiled and patted Naruto on the shoulder, saying...

"Thank you, Obito..."

Naruto Uzumaki nodded gratefully!

"So, what did he mean by his third sentence?"

Kiba Inuzuka asked curiously!

"Don't you understand this?"

Obito Uchiha said irritably:

"The Sage of Six Paths means that you should all do your job well. If you don't have the ability to solve the problem, then just be good cheerleaders and don't cause trouble for no reason!"

"..."

"..."

The implication in Obito Uchiha's words was quite clear!

Everyone present couldn't help but look at Kakashi Hatake and Tsunade!

"Cough cough, don't listen to his nonsense!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit strange, Nara Shikamaru coughed lightly and then said:

"What the Sage of Six Paths meant was that each of us has our own responsibilities. We can't just dump all the responsibilities on Naruto because he's strong! That would be irresponsible to both him and ourselves!"

"So, what should we do next?"

Kiba Inuzuka asked curiously.

"I've already said it, the choice isn't in our hands at all!"

Nara Shikamaru shook his head and said!

Kiba Inuzuka: "So, are we just going to do nothing like this?"

Shikamaru: "No, this matter has now escalated to the point of endangering the ninja world. We need to convene a Five Kage Summit to decide on our next move!"

Kiba Inuzuka: "Then let's hurry up and gather the other Kage!"

Shikamaru: "No, I don't think we need to. If I'm not mistaken, they're already on their way to Mokugoro!"

Just as Nara Shikamaru had predicted, at this moment, all the major and minor forces in the ninja world were heading towards Konoha!

"Old man, didn't you say you'd check first (if you wanted to make money)?"

Not far from the entrance of Iwagakure, Onoki and his granddaughter Kurotsuchi were hurrying along!

On the way, Heitu asked with great curiosity!

"...That was my original plan!"

Floating in the air, Onoki remained silent for a moment before answering.

"Then why..."
