Shocked! I can't hide my tears!

Uzumaki Naruto's sonorous and powerful voice resounded in the sky and in the ears of the entire ninja world. It was...

Same words as before, that is...

Outside the sky, Nagato stared blankly at the sky. That was... That was...

[I will break this curse. If peace really exists, I will hold on to it tightly and I will not give up!]

The words of the past reappeared in my mind, and the buried memory appeared again, just like yesterday, right in front of me...

"These words...he...I..." Nagato muttered, his eyes full of confusion.

Why? Why did such a short sentence have such a huge impact on him? Why?

Obviously, he had said that before, but why...

Konoha River

"That's the sentence. Is that so?" Jiraiya smiled with relief when he saw this. The two sons of prophecy reappeared...

So that's it...

This is... the story of Uzumaki Mei!

Tsunade glanced at Jiraiya, who was smiling with satisfaction, and was also confused. Then she looked at Uzumaki Naruto, who was standing by the river with a dazed look on his face, and her expression changed slightly.

The ninja world all looked at him in confusion. What could such a short sentence really summarize?

"That's... what Future Naruto said before. It turns out he's already said it!"

"If peace really exists, I will hold on to it, but.. does peace really exist?"

"At least Uzumaki Naruto is looking for him, and there is a young man who is still moving forward on this path. Maybe one day in the future, there will really be one?"

"But.. can Uzumaki Naruto really be found? I'm still a little reluctant to believe it. Just because he is the child of prophecy?"

"But...what can we do? We know the cruelty of reality, but we all yearn for an ideal peace in our hearts. At least he dares to walk towards that path, which is something we cannot compare to."

"We can't do anything. This is wrong. At least, at least we can trust him and believe that he can find it!"

"It's very lonely to search alone, so we stand behind him and support him together. This is the right thing to do!"

Although many people in the ninja world are unwilling to believe it, there are still some who are curious and looking forward to that ideal peace.

They can no longer bear to live in this cruel world, so they are willing to trust each other.

Land of Earth, Iwagakure Village——

"You are too young to ask for peace with just a few jokes, Uzumaki Naruto!" Ohnoki said in a deep voice. For him who has experienced the cruelty of reality, peace is what he longs for...

"No, grandpa, I think he can find it. At least he did what we dare not do. He took the first step!" Heitu shook his head and rejected the other party.

"If you're not my granddaughter, why do you always side with Uzumaki Naruto? Am I your real grandfather?" Ōnoki looked strange.

"Hey grandpa, what are you talking about? I'm just stating some facts." Heitu's face turned red. What is this old man talking about?

She was no longer interested in Naruto, but was just a little curious about him. After all, he had become such a powerful ninja at such a young age.

"What's there to be shy about? Don't I know what you are thinking? It's a pity that he is our enemy..." Oonoki glanced at the other party and said in a deep voice.

【Sky screen】

[In the scene, Nagato was stunned for a moment because of Uzumaki Naruto's words, with his mouth slightly open...]

【“Your...those words are..."】

[“Yes, these are all lines from this book, the first book written by the lecherous sage.” In the picture, Naruto lowered his head and looked at the Genshin Ninja Legend. ]

[“The lecherous immortal really wanted to change the world with this book. At the end of the book, he wrote about the story of his disciple who gave him the inspiration to write this book…”]

[He gently turned the last page, where there was a picture of the lecherous immortal when he was young, and some words...]

[“It’s your name, Nagato.”]

[In the scene, Nagato's body trembled. Uzumaki Naruto's words reminded him of the distant past..]

[In this case, I will break this curse, and if peace really exists, I will hold on to it tightly...]

〔I won't give up!〕

[My name is...]

【“Then, the name of the protagonist of this book...”】

【"That's... Naruto!"】

[“So my name is a precious relic left to me by the Lecherous Immortal. I must not give it up and harm my master’s relic!”]

[“I will become the Hokage and bring peace to the Hidden Rain Village!”]

【"Believe me!"】

Uzumaki Naruto's words can't give anything, and the answer is that nothing can be changed with just his words...

but..

As Naruto, he has to keep going. As the son of prophecy, he must keep going. If even he gives up, then the peace that the lustful sage talked about... will never exist!

He was a child named by a lustful immortal, so he would never give up!

If peace exists, he will hold on to it tightly, because he speaks his mind and keeps his word, this is his way of ninja!

These words left the ninja world in silence. They were all speechless and wanted to see the final scene...

His words won't change anything...

[In the scene, Nagato was silent for a moment, then said: "Why, why can you say that you will never change?"]

[“From now on, no matter how much pain you suffer, you will not change. Can you believe in yourself so firmly?”]

"Can you make that assertion? Can you believe in yourself?"

[Hearing this, Naruto lowered his head. He also had something he hated..]

【“I have my own pain too..”】

[He was once hated and ostracized by the villagers... the departure of his companions, Sasuke's defection... the painful news of his mentor's death, all stimulated him all the time...]

[But... he never gave up. He tried his best to become Hokage and wanted the whole village to recognize him. Even after Sasuke left, he never gave up looking for him...]

[He has never given up on his mentor's will, and he will continue to move forward with all this pain...]

[“There is a huge pain brewing in my body. I don’t know what kind of pain will come to me next...”]

[“But...if you don’t believe in yourself because of this, if the protagonist is changed, it will become a different story, and the things left by the master will become another book..."]

[“That’s not Naruto!”]

[“I can’t write a book like my master, so the sequel is my own way of survival!”]

["No matter how painful it is, I will keep going. This is Naruto!!"]
