[Jiraiya: But Nagi, this is the Great Toad Sage's prophecy! It concerns peace in the Shinobi World—]
[Shiranui Nagi: Senior Brother, are you still going to use Naruto and Sasuke to validate that vague prophecy of yours? And if they weren't the ones, would you look at them with disappointment?]
[Jiraiya: I…]
[Tsunade: Jiraiya, shut up! Nagi's right. Naruto and Sasuke are their mothers' children. Did you ever consider Shiranui Kūshina's and Mikoto's feelings when you said that?]
[Jiraiya: I…]
[Orochimaru: Stop stammering. Your naïveté has a way of causing trouble for others.]
[Shiranui Kūshina Uzumaki: W-Waaah… Nagi, you're such a good boy…]
[Mikoto Uchiha: Yes. I'm glad Sasuke has a friend like you.]
[Minato Namikaze: Nagi is correct. Naruto is Shiranui Kūshina's and my son—not some reincarnation defined by chakra.]
Nagi recalled Hinata's experiences.
"Hinata… such an unfortunate yet fortunate child."
"Fortunate because her bloodline talent is extraordinarily high. Unfortunate because of the Hyūga Clan's rigid Main House–Branch House system."
"Fortunate that she has a tsundere father who dotes on his daughter. He bore tremendous pressure to protect her—otherwise she would have long ago been branded with the Caged Bird Seal."
"Unfortunate that he doesn't quite know how to raise a daughter. She's been going hungry for years without him realizing it—thinking she was merely too shy to eat properly."
[Hinata Hyūga: Father… so you…]
[Hiashi Hyūga: Enough about that. And Hinata—what is this about you going hungry?]
[Hinata Hyūga: I…]
[Choji Akimichi: Huh? Hinata eats a lot?]
[Shiranui Nagi: Yes. Choji, even you and your father combined don't have her appetite.]
[Choji Akimichi: W-What?! That amazing?!]
[Choza Akimichi: Hinata, we'll have a contest someday! As the reigning big eater, I won't lose easily!]
[Hinata Hyūga: Uncle Choza… I…]
In the classroom, everyone turned to look at Hinata.
She was so embarrassed she looked ready to emit steam.
[MEidara Uchiha: I see. No wonder the child's strength wasn't obvious—her body has long been in a state of deficiency.]
Having grown up in the Warring States Period, MEidara knew well what chronic hunger could do to the body.
[Onoki: So that's it. She simply wasn't eating enough. Without proper nutrition, developing at all would be difficult—let alone growing stronger.]
[Hiashi Hyūga: Hinata, from now on, eat as much as you wish. There's no dignity in going hungry.]
[Hinata Hyūga: Yes, Father.]
"Fortunate to possess such powerful talent. Unfortunate that her personality is timid and shy—not the mindset of someone who seeks strength."
"Fortunate to be assigned to Shiranui Kūrenai Yuhi's team—Shiranui Kūrenai has always taken good care of her."
"But unfortunate she was born a year later. Had she joined Guy's team, perhaps Guy-sensei's fiery optimism might have reshaped her personality entirely."
[Shiranui Kūrenai Yuhi: Nagi, are you praising me or insulting me?]
[Rock Lee: That's right! If Hinata were in our team, she would definitely become bright and energetic!]
[Tenten: Well… energetic, maybe. But her sense of embarrassment would certainly decrease drastically.]
Hinata imagined herself in a green jumpsuit, shouting about youth in the streets—
She nearly fainted from the shock.
[The red screen faded out.]
[Little V: Hello everyone! That concludes today's broadcast. The next live stream will begin next month, so don't forget to tune in!
Oh! Almost forgot. To ensure smooth streaming, Little V will advance the resurrection of certain individuals ahead of schedule.]
[ShikaShiranui Kū Nara: Esteemed Administrator, advance? Does that mean the following people will be revived?]
[Little V: Correct. These are individuals Nagi will revive in the future anyway. At the appropriate time, they would return. However, to prevent anyone from harboring ill intent and disrupting the broadcast, I'll bring them forward now.]
[Little V: The number of individuals to be revived—five.]
Konoha Training Grounds
Several maple-leaf-shaped Flying Thunder God–marked Shiranui Kūnai suddenly appeared.
A flash of yellow light burst forth.
A blond man with blue eyes materialized—wearing a white Hokage cloak embroidered with "Fourth Hokage," a green flak jacket beneath, and a blue bodysuit.
The Yellow Flash — Minato Namikaze has arrived.
[Shiranui Kūshina Uzumaki: Minato! Is it really you? Have you truly been revived?!]
[Minato Namikaze: Yes, Shiranui Kūshina. I'm at the Konoha Training Grounds. I can feel my breathing… my heartbeat.
Thank you, Administrator.]
[Little V: Heehee, I only summoned you in advance. If Nagi hadn't revived you in the future, I wouldn't be able to call you back.]
[Minato Namikaze: I see. Thank you, Nagi. Naruto is fortunate to have a friend like you.]
[Onoki: Th-This is real?! He's actually revived?! So Nagi truly will resurrect others in the future?!]
The realization struck like lightning.
But recalling Tobirama's warning, none dared voice their thoughts openly.
In their hearts, they cried out:
Sage Nagi, you're the greatest.
Many were already considering traveling to KonohagaShiranui Kūre (Hidden Leaf Village) within the month to seek a resurrection opportunity.
Suddenly—
Beside Minato appeared a spiraling blue water vortex and a red flame vortex.
The water vortex dispersed.
A silver-haired man with red eyes emerged, wearing layered blue armor with a white fur collar and a metal forehead protector—three red markings on his cheeks.
The Ninjutsu Master — Tobirama Senju has arrived.
The flame vortex dissipated.
A man in black armor bearing the Uchiha fan crest stepped forward, long hair flowing behind him.
The Formidable Strategist — Izuna Uchiha has arrived.
[Shiranui Nagi: Sensei!!!]
[Tobirama Senju: Hm. Nagi, it seems your future self has done well.]
[Orochimaru: As expected of the Second Hokage… and the man beside him—]
[MEidara Uchiha: Izuna!! …Hm? This sensation—]
A colossal Wood Dragon suddenly soared across the sky.
A figure leapt down from its back.
Long black hair. Red layered armor. The Senju crest emblazoned upon his shoulder guard.
The God of Shinobi — Hashirama Senju has arrived.
At the same time, a towering blue humanoid construct manifested briefly—
Susanoo.
As it dispersed, a man stepped forward.
Flowing black hair. Crimson armor. A cold, domineering gaze.
The Asura of the Shinobi World — MEidara Uchiha has arrived.
