Konoha: A golden flash from the tomb

The wind brought about by his long strides ruffled Naruto's hair, and the slight whistling of the wind passed by his ears.

Although it was just a glimpse, Naruto instantly recognized the figure holding his father's arm. Naruto, who had briefly met in the Nine Lama's sealed space, would never forget his mother's appearance.

The distance of several hundred meters passed by in the blink of an eye. Naruto suddenly stamped his feet and landed on the ground. He stood in front of Minato and Kushina, his mouth wide open and he even forgot to breathe.

"Is this true, Dad?"

Naruto looked at Minato in disbelief, and after seeing him smile and nod, he carefully moved his eyes to Kushina, for fear that she would disappear in the blink of an eye.

As if he was dreaming, Naruto stared blankly for a while before raising his hand, as if he wanted to touch the real phantom in front of him.

"Mom is here to pick you up from school, Naruto."

Naruto's little hand was held by Kushina's hands and placed in front of her heart. She leaned down and got closer, looking at Naruto carefully with her smart eyes.

"I'm a little taller than before." Kushina reached out and touched Naruto's soft golden hair, and a thin layer of mist accumulated in her slightly red eyes.

"Mom is back."

Kushina gently hugged Naruto's body, and gently spoke against his ear.

After these words appeared, Naruto, who was biting his lips, could no longer hold back the tears in his eyes. He suppressed the thought of crying loudly and hugged Kushina back with all his strength, moistening Kushina with his warm tears. The bright red hair stuck to Naruto's face, bringing a slight itch, and the warmth coming from the embrace made Naruto clearly feel that this was definitely not an illusion or a dream.

"Mother...."

Naruto buried his face in Kushina's hair, suppressing the choking caused by crying loudly, which made his voice sound strangely hoarse at the moment.

"....I miss you so much, I miss you so much...."

A smile full of happiness and satisfaction appeared on the face with hanging hair and teardrops, but no one who saw such a smile would find it funny.

The emotion of longing that erupts after continuous accumulation is so intense that even if you just stand aside and watch quietly, you can't help but be infected.

Hinata, who walked up behind Naruto unknowingly, was probably the softest and most sentimental person among the group of friends. She was moved by this scene and sent a silent blessing with a smiling gaze.

"Naruto, your friends are here."

Kushina wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then carefully wiped away Naruto's tears. She held Naruto's hand to remind him of the arrival of his little friend.

"Ok!"

After Naruto understood the meaning of Kushina's words, he nodded vigorously, then turned around and showed a bright smile.

"Mom, they are all my best and best friends. Here are Shikamaru, Choji and Sasuke. The one in tights is Xiao Li. Next to him are Kiba, Neji...and Shino! I didn’t forget this time!”

"Thank you so much..."

Shino, who had a very low sense of presence, spoke quietly, but what came out of his voice was not blame, but genuine gratitude. He was already prepared to be subconsciously ignored.

"Finally Hinata."

Naruto took Hinata's hand, who was about to hide away after realizing that she was too close, and introduced her openly.

"What beautiful eyes. Hinata is such a cute girl. Naruto, you have to protect her."

Hinata's face suddenly turned red. A small cloud of steam appeared on her head. Hinata, who subconsciously wanted to grab the corner of her clothes, lowered her head and saw her hand being held by Naruto. Her face suddenly changed. More red.

Kushina, who could tell at a glance that Hinata's eyes were full of Naruto's shadow, spoke with a smile, and then she glanced at Minato casually, as if to say: 'In love? '

"Just like the first time I saw you, from then on, I only have eyes for you. Of course I am happy to see it happen."

"The children are all here."

Kushina snorted softly, a flash of anger flashed in her eyes, but then, she looked at Hinata with a gentler look.

"Mom will cook a big meal for you today. Why don't you invite your friends to join us?"

"of course yes!"

Naruto, who was about to jump with joy, quickly spoke, and all the little guys naturally agreed. In order to celebrate this reunion, they will just practice again tomorrow.

When this huge group of people walked towards the Namikaze family's house, the news of Kushina's return also spread. After all, her appearance had not been completely blurred in the people of Konoha's memory, and Minato had already returned. Now, Kushina's return after nearly two years doesn't seem impossible.

After Minato was sent out to buy vegetables and ingredients, many people came to the originally spacious living room. As Kushina's best friend, Uchiha Mikoto came over as soon as she got the news.

Naturally, she was accompanied by the mothers of the children who were invited to the house. After the men came back carrying a variety of fresh ingredients, the lively reunion began.

"Watergate."

Kushina, who put on an apron, took the ingredients that Minato brought back and asked with some uncertainty: "Did you forget something? I always feel like I'm missing someone?"

After Minato looked around the busy living room, he touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

"I forgot about them..."

With a misstep, Minato slapped his forehead and immediately left as a flying thunder god, returning to the other side of the planet where the moon still hung.

And during the more than half an hour he left, the reunited people also calmed down the excitement in their hearts.

"The dinner is almost ready, everyone, come, but my living room seems a bit small..."

"Go to my place!"

Tsunade slapped Minato down half a foot and said generously: "Why don't you just take a day off in the village? I'll pay for the celebration!"

"Brother."

Tsunade grabbed Minato's shoulders and lifted him up from the small pit, and then said seriously: "The pattern, the pattern is small."

“This is a major event for the entire village, and it’s no exaggeration to celebrate it for three days and three nights!”

"Are we short of money?"

"The entire ninja world is already in the bag, this is not an extravagance."

"Let's just say today is Konoha's rebirth festival."

Minato, who realized that his situation was indeed small, nodded without hesitation. It was time to celebrate. This was definitely a day worth remembering.

With the return of everyone, and with countless people rushing to tell each other, July 54, Konoha [-], was designated as the first legal holiday before the official establishment of the Fire Empire.

After the fireworks released by the modified chakra cannon lit up the entire night sky, this slightly rushed, but lively celebration began.

The previous turmoil in the ninja world temporarily ended with the collapse of the ninja villages of the Three Kingdoms of Thunder, Earth, and Wind, the annihilation of the entire army of ninjas from the Three Kingdoms, and the defeat of Uchiha Madara and Otsutsuki Kaguya.

Although there are still many important matters that need to be dealt with seriously, they are all postponed in this day of celebration. At least tonight when the fireworks are in full bloom, nothing will be more important than celebrating reunion and reunion.
