The Lost Tower! Minato Namikaze's Forgotten Memories! / The Princess of Rōran Wants to Travel Through Time Too!
One end of the Chakra Blade bore the Hidden Leaf Village's emblem.
But this Chakra Blade had weathered the years. It seemed to be an old item from ten or twenty years ago.
If he had guessed correctly, bringing Shion along had been the right call, because they had now entered the setting of the new movie, The Lost Tower.
The Lost Tower was another movie storyline from the Naruto world. Its main plot was that the Hidden Leaf Village accepted a mission from the Land of Wind. An evil ninja named Mukade wanted to seize the power of the Dragon Vein at the ruins of the Country of Roran within the Land of Wind.
So the protagonist team headed to the Land of Wind. When Mukade tried to seize the Dragon Vein, an anomaly occurred, and the group was drawn into it.
As a result... they were sent directly to an era twenty years ago, when the Country of Roran still existed.
There, they encountered Minato and his group, who had been assigned to protect Queen of Roran, Sara, during that period.
And this was also... Naruto's chance to meet Minato while he was still alive.
"..." Kitahara Kaede glanced at Naruto, who was holding his hands together and curiously staring at the Chakra Blade held by the Rōran girl.
During the mission in the Land of Demons, Naruto had acted as bait. He had used the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu and played every person in the Miko's palace, including Shion, who had been killed.
Although the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu transmitted experience and the like back to the original body, having clones shattered or killed still placed considerable strain on the caster.
But Naruto had endured the weight of over three hundred deaths without uttering a single complaint.
