Chapter 789 The Fourth War Ends

“If only I had been a little faster, arrived a few minutes earlier…”

Minato Namikaze was full of self-reproach, looking at Obito whose Chakra had disappeared.

Seeing Six Paths Obito choose to sacrifice his life again instead of atoning for his sins while alive, he felt incredibly bitter.

If not for his mistake, Six Paths Obito should have become a senior Naruto looked up to, not like this.

The cheerful and confident Obito constantly reminded Minato Namikaze of one thing: when it came to being a teacher, he was far inferior to Muzuki.

“Kamui can’t hide tears.”

Obito sighed with emotion.

Having fully witnessed Six Paths Obito’s life, he could understand everything Six Paths Obito had done.

If it weren’t for Muzuki, he probably would have just shed tears silently in the Kamui Dimension, missing Rin Nohara.

Of course, understanding was one thing, but even now, Obito did not approve of what Six Paths Obito did during his period of darkness.

If he could have crossed over with his memories as Six Paths Obito and experienced everything Six Paths Obito did, he would never have done those things.

Witnessing Rin’s death firsthand, Obito would be in pain, would cry, and would be sad for a long time, but he would never, because of it, want to plunge the entire world into the illusory Infinite Tsukuyomi.

After he got his feelings in order, Obito would continue to pursue his dream, become Hokage, and then end the war, preventing the tragedy that befell Rin Nohara from happening to others.

“Am I the only one left again?”

A look of loneliness involuntarily appeared on Kakashi’s face.

Minato Squad was ultimately left with only him.

“What are you saying? Why don’t you take a good look at Minato?”

Muzuki, who was comforting Minato Namikaze, heard Kakashi’s whisper and said with a faint smile.

Kakashi subconsciously looked towards Minato Namikaze and saw Minato Namikaze’s somewhat disheartened but luminous blue eyes.

“Obito’s Reincarnation!”

Kakashi then remembered that Reincarnation could directly revive Ninja in Edo Tensei, and quickly looked at the other three Edo Hokage, finding that they had all become living people.

“Is this Jutsu so powerful? It actually revived all four of us at once.”

Senju Tobirama showed a surprised expression.

In his experience, Reincarnation should also require Chakra to revive Ninja, and the stronger the Ninja to be revived, the more Chakra needed.

The combined Chakra of the four of them was considerable, especially Senju Hashirama and him.

Six Paths Obito’s Chakra alone would certainly not be enough, but Nagato knew what Obito was going to do, so he naturally wouldn’t do nothing.

That Rinnegan not only contained most of Nagato’s Chakra but also a portion of the Six Paths Power Muzuki had given Nagato.

Ōtsutsuki Kaguya was too strong, and Nagato didn’t get to intervene much in the battle, so Muzuki’s Six Paths Power remained until the end of the battle.

“Haha, looking like this, one might think the Monkey is the elder.”

Senju Hashirama couldn’t help but laugh, looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi, the only one among them who looked like an old man.

Hiruzen Sarutobi:…

This Orochimaru, when he used Edo Tensei, he didn’t even make him younger, making him miss the chance to return to his peak.

“Dad.”

Upon realizing that Minato Namikaze had been revived by Six Paths Obito, Naruto excitedly hugged Minato Namikaze.

Although Minato Namikaze and his wife in Muzuki’s world were good, they were ultimately the parents of another him, and Naruto didn’t want his own family affection to be divided because of it.

“I’m sorry, you’ve worked hard all these years.”

Minato Namikaze gently stroked Naruto’s head and said softly.

As a Hokage, he was worthy of Konoha, but as a father, he was not very competent, having been absent for seventeen years of Naruto’s life.

Naruto didn’t speak, just hugged Minato Namikaze even tighter.

At this moment, a faint golden glow stealthily slipped out from the horizon’s crack, dispelling the darkness and illuminating the battlefield.

“Naruto, Happy Birthday.”

Minato Namikaze smiled and congratulated him.

“As for a gift, I’ll try to make it up to you today. Is there anything you want, Naruto?”

“If there’s anything I’m not doing well as a father in the future, please point it out, after all, I’m a father with little experience.”

Strictly speaking, today was only Minato Namikaze’s second day as a father, making him a complete novice.

“No need to go to such trouble, Dad’s blessing is the best gift for me.”

Naruto shook his head and said with a bright smile.

Minato Namikaze’s revival was already the happiest thing for him today.

“Happy Birthday.”

Muzuki blessed him with a faint smile, then placed his hand on Minato Namikaze’s severed arm, helping to restore it.

Since Minato Namikaze in his Edo state had an arm destroyed by Yin-Yang Release, he was in a severed arm state when revived.

“Thank you so much, Big Brother Muzuki.”

Naruto excitedly thanked him, then quickly asked about his father’s feelings, if he was uncomfortable.

“How about you punch me twice, Big Brother Naruto.”

Looking at Naruto’s happy smile, Obito felt an indescribable sadness and couldn’t help but say.

What Six Paths Obito did was truly inhuman.

This caused him, who had Six Paths Obito’s memories, to also feel a great sense of guilt.

“Why would I hit you? We should thank you, Little Brother Obito, this time.”

Naruto said with a smile, putting his arm around Obito’s shoulder.

Let alone Obito, his counterpart, even Six Paths Obito, Naruto would not hate him now.

Because he knew that the real fault was not with Six Paths Obito, but with the war, with the world at that time.

Six Paths Obito, like Nagato, was just someone who went astray.

“Big Brother Naruto!”

Obito looked respectful and gave Naruto a thumbs-up.

Naruto’s broad mind reminded him of Muzuki.

When Muzuki showed his strength at the Martial Arts Tournament, everyone thought the Four Great Shinobi Villages were finished, thought the Four Kage were finished, but Muzuki didn’t make a move.

Even if Muzuki had gone on a rampage then, the Four Great Shinobi Villages would have been powerless to resist, and the Ninja World could still have moved towards peace.

However, that would definitely have killed many people, and there would have been a period of considerable chaos.

“Naruto, Happy Birthday, time flies, you’re seventeen now.”

Kakashi sighed and congratulated Naruto.

“Seventeen?”

Obito was confused. What about being one year older than him? Who corrupted his Big Brother Naruto, oh no, Little Brother Naruto?

“Haha, don’t mind the details.”

Naruto chuckled, trying to gloss over the matter.

“Little Brother Naruto, even though it’s your birthday today, you’re being too unkind. You should at least call me Big Brother Obito a few times.”

Obito’s expression changed.

“We’re not Ninja from the same world, so we can’t calculate by normal age. Little Brother Obito, you should let ‘me’ from your world call you Big Brother.”

Naruto believed that different worlds should be calculated by the age at first meeting, otherwise, it would be too unfair to him.

Seven years passed in Obito’s world, while only a little over a month passed in his.

“Little Brother Naruto, I used Kamui to help you out of trouble quite a bit during the battle.”

Obito widened his eyes, recounting his and Super Obito’s contributions during the great war.

“Little Brother Obito, why are you taking all the credit for the combined Ninja? Besides, I helped you, remember? I even taught you Rasengan back then.”

Seeing the two of them calling each other ‘Little Brother’, Kakashi was speechless. They were even arguing about this.

“Kakashi, you be the judge.”

Obito called out to Kakashi.

“Kakashi-sensei, you say something too.”

Naruto looked at Kakashi.

“I’m not interested in judging such boring things.”

Kakashi rolled his eyes and said irritably.

“I have a suggestion, why don’t Yamato treat us to ramen? We can discuss while eating.”

Kakashi stroked his chin and said.

Yamato:???

How did it get twisted to him? Senior Kakashi, you’re doing too many bad things.

“I support that. Yamato was an Anbu captain, so he must be rich. Treating us to ramen is only right.”

Kakashi nodded and said.

The grudge of being knocked on the head, he would never forget.

Those two punches caused too much harm to a ten-year-old child.

Yamato was numb. One big and one small Kakashi serving him alone, this good fortune was truly more than he could bear.

If he had known, back then he should have…

Please… collect _6 I 9 I Book I Bar (Six \ \ \ Nine \ \ \ Book \ \ \ Bar!)

…he should have knocked him twice more!

Anyway, this inherently evil white-haired senior would definitely not let him off, so he might as well enjoy it twice more.

Not only Muzuki and his group, but also the Allied Shinobi Forces who had awakened from the Infinite Tsukuyomi and were revived by Obito, sent birthday wishes to Naruto, the great hero.

Tens of thousands of blessings filled the battlefield, injecting new vitality and joy into this broken land.

Although the venue was in ruins, no one disliked the environment, and many Allied Shinobi Forces Ninja smiled.

Some were genuinely happy for Naruto’s birthday, some were relieved to have survived this terrifying war, some were happy for the victory of the war, and some were infected by the smiles around them.

No matter why they were laughing, they added laughter to the battlefield, making the atmosphere cheerful.

However, some also noticed other issues.

“The four Edo Tensei Hokage have all come back to life, which means Konoha now has five Hokage.”

Fourth Raikage’s expression was serious.

They had engaged in an unprecedented cooperation, true, but this didn’t mean there wouldn’t be wars in the future, and Konoha, with five Hokage, clearly had an overpowered combat strength, which was very much worth being wary of.

“Compared to that, I’m more concerned about the parallel world.”

Ōnoki said.

The Ninja from other parallel worlds were fine, but Muzuki was simply too strong.

Six Paths Madara, who was like a god, was severely injured by Muzuki in a few moves.

If Muzuki led the Ninja from another world to invade the Ninja World, Ōnoki couldn’t imagine who could stop Muzuki.

“Let’s enjoy this hard-won victory first.”

Mei Terumī let out a long breath and smiled.

As for why only the three Kage were discussing here, Gaara had already rushed over to give Naruto his blessings the moment he saw someone celebrating Naruto’s birthday.

And Tsunade walked over to Senju Hashirama’s side.

“Grandpa, since you’ve been revived, please continue to serve as Hokage.”

Tsunade said with a smile.

Her becoming Hokage was purely a matter of being pushed into it, a forced situation where only she could take the role.

Tsunade wasn’t someone who liked official duties, so if there was a better option, she naturally didn’t want to be Hokage anymore.

“Tsunade, what kind of talk is that? How can the Hokage’s position be given up so easily? That would make the Hokage a joke.”

Before Senju Hashirama could reply, Senju Tobirama sternly lectured her.

Theoretically, they were all Hokage, but this Hokage was only a title; the real Hokage was only Tsunade.

Such casual relinquishment of Hokage power would weaken the Hokage’s authority.

“Grand-uncle, you’re still so energetic. How about you take the role?”

Tsunade said with a carefree chuckle.

When she was little, she was practically the princess of the Senju Clan, and Senju Hashirama wasn’t the only one who spoiled her.

“Many Konoha Ninja miss you, hoping you can lead Konoha to continued prosperity.”

“I won’t indulge in your nonsense.”

Senju Tobirama refused without mercy.

In other aspects, he could spoil Tsunade with Senju Hashirama, but when it came to major matters concerning the Hokage’s authority, he could not condone it.

Senju Tobirama would at most make a cameo as an assistant or Advisor, helping Tsunade with official duties.

“Then Hiruzen-sensei, you?”

Tsunade could only look at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

“Please spare me.”

Hiruzen Sarutobi pointed to his wrinkled face, as if saying, ‘Is this appropriate?’

He was already at the age for retirement and fishing, and didn’t want to bother anymore.

“Tsk.”

Tsunade showed a disappointed expression, despite her efforts to speak so nicely.

“Minato, you…”

“Lady Tsunade, good luck.”

Minato Namikaze encouraged her.

Konoha already had the Fifth Hokage; he, the Fourth Hokage, just needed to honestly provide support.

“Haha, sure enough, not listening to Hiruzen-sensei’s persuasion was the right choice.”

Jiraiya laughed heartily at the sight.

Back then, Hiruzen Sarutobi had truly tried every means to push him into the position of Hokage.

It was as if he was artificially raining opportunities to become Hokage onto Jiraiya’s head, but unfortunately, Jiraiya had an umbrella and blocked them all.

Looking at the laughing Jiraiya, Tsunade was in a trance, and couldn’t help but recall some memories.

“How about it? Don’t you find me very handsome? After all, I’m much younger.”

Jiraiya said proudly.

“Your misunderstanding of ‘handsome’ is indeed the same.”

Tsunade replied.

“Nice to meet you, I am one of the Sannin, the Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku!”

Jiraiya didn’t mind, but laughed loudly, struck a pose, and introduced himself.

“Hello, I’m Tsunade. I hope you’re not the scoundrel who tries to push ‘me’ into the Hokage position.”

Seeing Jiraiya still pretending with an introduction, Tsunade smiled and responded.

Actually, she had noticed Jiraiya on the battlefield earlier and wanted to say a few words to him, but the battle was too intense, and there was no opportunity.

“Hello, do I need to introduce myself as well?”

Orochimaru greeted Orochimaru.

“No need for that, but you seem to be different from what I imagined.”

Orochimaru replied.

Based on the performance of the Allied Shinobi Forces, he judged that “Orochimaru” had defected and done many major things.

But now that Orochimaru was mingling with the Allied Shinobi Forces, the specific situation should be somewhat different from what he imagined.

“Then, would you like to exchange knowledge?”

Orochimaru smiled charmingly and raised his arm.

He was very curious about Orochimaru; although he hadn’t observed much, it was enough to confirm one piece of information: Orochimaru and he were not on the same path.

“Why not?”

Orochimaru showed a faint smile and also raised his hand.

Their hands met, and their Chakra connected.
