What is a miracle? To be resurrected is a miracle. In some world without magic, Shinsei could claim to be the son of heaven with this ability.
Nagato, newly resurrected, still looked somewhat dazed. He glanced at Konan beside him, his eyes filled with uncertainty—was this a dream?
"It was Shinsei who saved you." Konan helped Nagato up and said to Shinsei, "Thank you for saving Nagato."
Nagato said weakly, "Thank you for saving me. I will remember this."
The White Zetsu controlled by Shinsei still wanted to speak, but the White Zetsu body had already been drained of its life force. He extracted his spirit from the White Zetsu's body and returned it to his own.
When Shinsei opened his eyes again, he realized his body was much better.
"You're welcome. I was just testing my Ninjutsu. If it were you, would you still go back to Akatsuki?"
This statement caused both of them to fall silent.
After a long while, Nagato shook his head. "I now understand that all of this was orchestrated by Madara Uchiha behind the scenes, including my Rinnegan."
Shinsei nodded in agreement. "Since Madara Uchiha dared to give the Rinnegan to Nagato, how could he not have had countermeasures? In the original story, it was Obito who revived Madara Uchiha, but now it's Nagato. He wasn't raised by Madara Uchiha from a young age, so he can't forgive him for what he did."
"I will not give up hope for peace. If Madara Uchiha's path has gone astray, I will give my life to correct it."
Nagato's words made Shinsei feel exceptionally pleased. Although Nagato had lost his greatest strength by losing the Rinnegan, he was still proficient in various Ninjutsu, making him a powerful Kage Level ninja even without the Rinnegan. It was all the better that he could cause trouble for Madara Uchiha.
Shinsei told the two of them what happened after Konan left, including the conditions Shinsei and Madara Uchiha had reached.
Nagato listened thoughtfully, then said weakly, "I will reunite with you in five years." He glanced at Yahiko sitting in the corner beside him. "I have lost trust in Madara Uchiha. If I had to trust either of you, I would prefer to trust you."
Shinsei also solemnly said, "Thank you for your trust. Peace is our common desire. I've heard it said that with great power comes great responsibility. If people like us, who possess such formidable strength, were to use that power to destroy the world, the damage would be immense. Conversely, if we use it to protect the world, it would bring even more beauty to it."
"With great power comes great responsibility?" Nagato listened thoughtfully.
He slowly stood up and glanced at Yahiko beside him. "Remember what you said. If you need anything, come find me. Anyway, you left the Flying Thunder God Mark on me."
Shinsei didn't seem embarrassed when he heard this. After learning the Flying Thunder God, he had made it a habit to leave the Flying Thunder God Mark on important people.
Konan, supporting Nagato, asked Yahiko, who was standing beside her, "Do you want to come with us?"
Yahiko quickly shook his head. " Konan and Arin from the other world are still waiting for me."
Konan nodded again. Several sheets of white paper appeared in her hand, and then she frantically wrote words on them with Chakra.
In the blink of an eye, a few sheets of white paper had been transformed into a thin book.
The book ended up in Yahiko's hands.
"Give it to her." Konan picked up Nagato, and a pair of paper wings appeared behind her.
The two flew swiftly towards the cave entrance. A Konan "thank you" echoed from within. It was unclear whether she was referring to Shinsei helping her counterpart in another world, or to Xie Yahiko helping to deliver the books.
Yahiko felt the book was too hot to handle and quickly handed it to Shinsei. Shinsei took it and saw that it contained various Paper Release secret techniques.
This was clearly intended for Konan in another world, saving her time developing Ninjutsu. But the time she spent creating this book... sigh, it was really short. Could this be how she came up with her 600 billion Explosive Tag?
Shinsei returned the book to Yahiko; this Ninjutsu book was something no one but Konan could learn.
Shinsei placed one hand on Yahiko's shoulder, and with the other hand, he flashed the Flying Thunder God, and the two disappeared into the cave.
Today, Konoha was exceptionally sunny. Sunlight shone on the barrier above Konoha, creating dappled, iridescent halos.
Konoha Gate, Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuki were diligently on duty.
Suddenly, Kotetsu Hagane nudged Izumo Kamizuki's shoulder. " Lord Jiraiya is back."
Izumo Kamizuki carefully observed the four people walking towards him on the main road.
The white-haired old man leading the group was Jiraiya than Konoha Sannin of Konoha.
He looked at the three figures behind Jiraiya and felt they looked somewhat familiar.
One was a black-haired man wearing red armor; the other was a white-haired man wearing blue armor.
The blond man looked increasingly familiar, and his warm smile left a deep impression on him.
"Yondaime-sama?"
Kotetsu Hagane also recognized the blond man; he was none other than the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze. When Minato Namikaze became Hokage, Gangzi was already quite old, and he had a deep impression of that handsome Lord Hokage.
Upon closer inspection, the two people beside the Fourth Hokage appear to be Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju from the Hokage Rock.
Something terrible has happened!
Izumo Kamizuki gave Kotetsu Hagane some instructions and hurriedly ran towards the village.
Minato Namikaze and Tobirama Senju had left many Flying Thunder God Sign in Konoha, allowing them to directly Flying Thunder God to enter the Konoha. However Hashirama Senju rejected their suggestion.
The return of the previous Hokage is not something shameful or disgraceful; there's no need to hide it.
As Madara Uchiha and Konoha's guarantor, Hashirama Senju still needs to stay in the Shinobi World for 5 years.
Tobirama Senju also received the task of developing a way to block Super Tsukuyomi, but don't expect to complete it anytime soon.
Moreover, this sudden return requires Konoha to have some time to prepare.
As the group approached, Kotetsu Hagane quickly stepped forward and respectfully bowed to the three Hokage: " Lord First, Second, Lord Fourth, welcome back to Konoha!"
"Hahaha!" Hashirama Senju awkwardly touched his hair. "This return was a bit sudden, sorry about that."
Some of the villagers in the surrounding area have already recognized the Hokage.
" The Fourth Hokage!"
Minato Namikaze responded with a smile.
The news spread quickly, and many villagers rushed out of their houses, blocking the gates completely.
An elderly man pointed at Hashirama Senju's face, so excited he was almost incoherent. "Hashirama, Hashirama -Lord Hashirama! It's the First, Lord Hashirama!"
People greeted Hashirama Senju and Minato Namikaze.
The two waved to the many villagers.
Tobirama Senju, on the other hand, was merely called by name briefly before ignoring it and turning his attention to Hashirama Senju and Minato Namikaze.
Tobirama Senju his arms and turned away. He was very dissatisfied with the villagers' discriminatory treatment.
Suddenly the crowd quieted down and automatically made way for them.
A woman dressed in a green robe, with outstanding figure and a generous and forthright demeanor, appeared outside the crowd!
It was none other than the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade.
