"I saw hope for the future in you."
"For an old woman like me, long since retired, seeing this was enough to leave me with no regrets in life."
"I'm truly happy!"
Everyone watched Chiyo's movements. Some realized what she was doing, but others did not understand.
Naruto wanted to speak. He was still immersed in grief over Gaara's death and had yet to recover, so he had not realized what Chiyo was doing.
Sakura turned around, shook her head at Naruto, and said quietly, "She wants to bring Gaara back to life!"

"If this old woman's life can bring back the Kazekage Sunagakure waited so long for, that should count as a blessing."
The chakra in Chiyo's body continued to drain away. Sweat began to bead on her forehead, and she aged considerably in a short time.
She had only just fought a desperate battle against her own grandson, Sasori. Although Neji and Sakura had helped her, she had still expended a great deal of energy.

Now Chiyo was trying to trade her own life to revive Gaara, and she was struggling to keep going.

Naraku nodded indifferently. Of course he knew that,
