On the road.
Naruto was chatting with his mother in the Sealing Space.
Originally, Kushina had not cared how long it took to revive her, because... even in the Sealing Space, she could see her son Naruto and her husband Minato every day.
But... after seeing Konoha's current situation, she wanted to help Minato.
She also wanted to create a wonderful living environment for Naruto.
After learning what Kushina Uzumaki wanted, Naruto began considering how to revive his mother in a short time.
The first step toward reviving her would be Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation.
As long as they could summon Kushina Uzumaki's soul with Impure World Reincarnation... they could then use Rinne Rebirth or One's Own Life Reincarnation to bring her back to life!
"Looks like... I'll have to approach Nagato ahead of schedule!"
Naruto murmured.
Just as Naruto was thinking about reviving Kushina, he heard several people gossiping among the ruins.
"Heh heh heh... have you heard? The whole Mitsui family is actually planning to move into the new district, and they even applied for an interest-free loan!"
"Mitsui? I heard his family runs a bookstore!"
"Tch... that bookstore isn't even theirs. Apparently, the old lady in the Mitsui family once helped Lord Jiraiya of the Sannin, and that's how they got the right to use the bookstore! Just the right to use it-the building still belongs to Konoha!"
"Oh... but... being able to buy a home of your own with an interest-free loan sounds pretty good too..."
"Tch... do you really think the Konoha High Command are idiots? Once you take out an interest-free loan, it means you might be tied to Konoha for the rest of your life!"
"That's why... I wouldn't move into that new Konoha New District even if you killed me!"
