Minato Namikaze and his wife looked at Naruto in the light barrier with gentle expressions. Compared to others, they only had eyes for their son and no strong desire to summon anyone specific.
As for Sasuke, his expression was incredibly complex. He definitely wanted his parents resurrected, but regarding Itachi, even though he now knew the truth behind his brother's supposed "darkening," Itachi was still the one who had killed their parents. No matter the reason, Sasuke couldn't let go of it.
"Fine, I'll revive him and then beat him up!" Uchiha Sasuke thought to himself, finally convincing himself to have Itachi resurrected as well.
In the villa.
Yuzhibo had finally finished lunch with Wang Shouyi's family. After waving goodbye to Wang Shouyi and his wife, he took Bai Chanyi and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to arrive beside Jiraiya.
"Yo, acting Hokage!" Jiraiya greeted Yuzhibo heartily.
"Want to meet your future disciple?" Yuzhibo said with a smile. Having read the original work, he once lamented that Jiraiya wasn't reanimated later, thinking Kishimoto was too cruel for not allowing the master and disciple to meet, thus missing an opportunity to harvest audience tears.
"Huh?" Jiraiya was utterly confused. Having just earned the name "Sannin," he had taken Minato as a disciple not long after becoming a Jonin, then participated in the Second Great Ninja War, and on his way back, he took Nagato.
(Kishimoto's timeline is too messy, but I assume he took Minato first, then made a big splash in the Third Great Ninja War. Nagato was taken shortly after the Second Great Ninja War ended. If there's an error, it's Kishimoto's fault, not mine.)
Counting his disciples, he now had four. But judging by Yuzhibo's words, would he have more disciples in the future? And they seemed quite formidable.
"The Hokage anime, for these summoned individuals, it concerns their own destinies. Perhaps I can find an opportunity to sell it to them at a higher price!" Yuzhibo muttered to himself, observing Jiraiya's bewildered expression.
Without explaining much to Jiraiya, and after waiting a while longer and seeing that Hashirama Senju hadn't arrived yet, Yuzhibo didn't dwell on it. He used the sub-system to share Hashirama's vision, found that he was still fighting, and then vanished from his original spot.
He first brought Jiraiya back to Room 202, then entered the light barrier of the Pure Land space. As for Orochimaru, after his clone finished purchasing the necessary research equipment, he would naturally use the Flying Thunder God Technique to bring him back.
That's right, he had just sent a divine message to his clone, informing him of everything.
As Yuzhibo appeared within the large light barrier, he waved his hand, and the light barriers enveloping the various ninjas dispersed, leaving only four un-opened barriers, revealing the individuals within – some excited, some anticipating, some responsible, and some brimming with fighting spirit.
Because it was a reunion of master and disciple, Yuzhibo couldn't bear to let others disrupt this historic moment, so he didn't release Uchiha Madara, Obito, the Third, or the Fourth Raikage.
As for Gai, Sakumo Hatake, and Sasuke, they served as the atmosphere setters.
"Acting Hokage, when can we do our re..."
As soon as he appeared, Naruto, being boisterous, spoke first. However, he had only spoken halfway when he saw Jiraiya, who looked considerably younger than in his memory. His gaze then fell upon the shorter red markings on Jiraiya's face, and he couldn't help but freeze.
"You, you, you, you... are you..." Naruto stared at the younger Jiraiya with an expression of shock, then pointed at him and shouted, too excited to speak clearly.
"You know me?" Jiraiya looked at him strangely, then crossed his arms, instinctively assuming he was a fan overwhelmed by his fame.
At this time, he hadn't yet put on those comical wooden clogs, nor had he designed that ridiculous opening dance, but his personality guaranteed he was a comedian.
Facing what he thought was an "adoring fan," he said proudly, "That's right, I am the renowned, the one with the name of the Sannin..."
"You're the Pervy Sage!" Naruto let out a sharp cry, interrupting him.
"Huh?" Jiraiya was immediately dumbfounded. He didn't perform the anime-like move of falling with his feet in the air, because this was the real world.
"Teacher, you're here too!" Minato Namikaze walked forward with his wife, looking at Jiraiya with a gentle smile.
Upon seeing an old acquaintance, Kushina Uzumaki didn't display her usual expression when Jiraiya came to their house for a meal. This was because Jiraiya, having just experienced war during the Second Great Ninja War, was in the most profound phase of his life, exuding a relatively steady and trustworthy aura.
"Huh? You're Minato? You're Kushina? You've grown so much!" Jiraiya exclaimed, then looked at Naruto, his gaze fixed on the boy's blond hair, and stammered, "You're not going to tell me he's your..."
Minato Namikaze's eyes curved into crescent moons, and he said gently, "As you can see, he is our son, Minato and Kushina's. You even gave him his name, Uzumaki Naruto."
"Naruto?" Jiraiya looked at Uzumaki Naruto, feeling an inexplicable connection to the boy the more he looked.
"Hey, hey, hey... Pervy Sage, have you forgotten me? I'm Naruto, your most anticipated disciple!" Naruto excitedly rushed to Jiraiya, his hands moving up and down as he spoke, appearing extremely upset that Jiraiya had forgotten him.
Jiraiya then burst into laughter, feeling an inexplicable closeness to Naruto. He couldn't help but reach out and ruffle his head, "Although I don't know when we met, it's a pleasure to meet you, Naruto!"
"What... you don't even know me!" Uzumaki Naruto looked crestfallen.
"Naruto, Lord Jiraiya is your elder. You mustn't be so rude. Besides, he's not even thirty years old yet!" Kushina Uzumaki explained.
"Even if he's the Pervy Sage under thirty, he probably can't resist this move, right?" Naruto looked at Jiraiya with a confident expression.
"Oh? You want to test my strength?" Jiraiya looked at Naruto, sensing an aura not weaker than his own, and his expression became serious.
Naruto formed a hand seal, and white smoke instantly filled the air, the special effect of the Transformation Jutsu.
"Sexy Jutsu!"
"Nani?" Jiraiya's expression changed!
*Bang!*
As the smoke dissipated, a captivating, curvaceous, and sexy girl with yellow twin ponytails appeared before Jiraiya, her finger touching a whisker on her right cheek, seductively saying, "Lord Jiraiya... hurry up~"
Jiraiya: (⊙-⊙)
The next moment, with a *poof*, two streams of blood spurted from Jiraiya's nostrils, opening a new world for him.
With another *bang*, Naruto returned to his original form, arms crossed, eyes closed, and said with satisfaction, "Hmph, this is the Pervy Sage I'm familiar with!"
The next moment, a fist unceremoniously landed on his head. It was Kushina, her face filled with anger, roaring at him, "Who did you learn this from!"
Then, her gaze fell upon Jiraiya, whose nose was gushing blood, and her expression turned dark, "Did you teach him?"
"This personality is exactly like Tsunade's!" Jiraiya looked at Kushina with a headache and began to frantically explain, spewing out phrases like "I don't know him at all" and "How do you educate your child," all while trying to distance himself and shift the blame.
Minato Namikaze couldn't help but cover his forehead.
Uchiha Sasuke also had several black lines appearing on his face, muttering, "This idiot!"
Meanwhile, Might Guy was unknowingly shedding tears of joy, shouting, "A reunion battle between master and disciple, this is youth!"
"What kind of youth is this, hey!" Kushina Uzumaki's fist moved from Jiraiya's head, and she roared at Might Guy.
Sakumo Hatake: "..."
As a mature White Fang, he had truly never seen such a scene!
