The setting sun cast its rays over the mountains as the bell signaling the end of school at the Ninja Academy rang out.
Students left the school in pairs and small groups, waving goodbye to each other before heading home with their families, who had been waiting at the school gates.
In this ordinary scene, there was one figure who stood out, an isolated figure both inside and outside the school.
It was a blond-haired, blue-eyed boy wearing a black T-shirt and brown shorts, with dark green goggles on his forehead.
The boy looked around, watching children being praised by their parents, parents patting their children's heads with smiles, younger siblings being spoiled, and older siblings holding hands or carrying their younger siblings…
He sadly retracted his gaze, lowered his head, and quickly ran away from the school gate.
The evening glow was like fire, and this was the liveliest time in the village. Shops on both sides of the street hung lanterns at their doors, and people who had worked all day were shouting and laughing, heading to the izakaya for a few drinks. Housewives strolled the streets, choosing ingredients for dinner, and there were also lovey-dovey couples…
Uzumaki Naruto walked through the bustling streets, his loneliness growing more intense, as if he didn't belong in this world.
"Hmph!"
He ran headfirst, all the way to his doorstep.
"I'm home."
Opening the door, even though he knew no one was home, Uzumaki Naruto still said it.
"Welcome back."
Unexpectedly, a responding voice came from inside.
"Eh?"
Upon hearing the voice, Uzumaki Naruto's expression was clearly a mix of surprise. After regaining his senses, he immediately ran outside, tilted his head, and stared at the door for a long time.
"That's right, it's my home!"
After confirming this, he ran back into the house, his footsteps echoing. Seeing the man sitting at the dining table, he demanded, "Who are you, and why are you in my house?!"
"Shh!" Mu Yang put a finger to his lips, saying, "Keep your voice down, we don't want to attract unwanted attention."
"As for who I am? I'm a merchant who can grant wishes! As long as you can pay the price, any wish can be fulfilled."
"The reason I'm in your house is naturally to help you realize your wish."
"Anything?" The young Uzumaki Naruto believed Mu Yang without a moment's hesitation, asking excitedly.
Mu Yang nodded slightly, "Anything."
Uzumaki Naruto was so excited he didn't know what to do with himself, stammering, "I... I... I want to... see my parents!"
"Alright," Mu Yang said, adopting a boss-like posture, left leg crossed over his right, fingers interlaced on his knee. "As I mentioned before, fulfilling a wish requires a corresponding price. I'll take something in exchange for granting your wish, but don't worry, it won't harm you."
With that, Mu Yang remained seated and snapped his fingers with a flourish.
The snap of his fingers was followed by three balls of light, two blue and one orange, emerging from Uzumaki Naruto's abdomen. The blue balls transformed into two phantom figures, while the orange one flew into Mu Yang's palm.
"These are your parents," Mu Yang said, gesturing towards the two phantom figures.
"Naruto!"
A louder voice immediately followed. A red light rushed towards Uzumaki Naruto, seemingly wanting a warm embrace, but passed right through him, unable to touch anything.
Kushina pouted, complaining, "Why is it like this!"
Her complaining was fleeting, quickly forgotten. Kushina's gaze was fixed on Uzumaki Naruto, full of longing. "Naruto, you've grown so much!"
"Are…are you really my parents?" Uzumaki Naruto asked blankly.
"Of course, we are your parents. I'm your mother, Uzumaki Kushina, and he's your father, Namikaze Minato!" Kushina said, pointing first to herself and then to Namikaze Minato, who was standing behind her and nodded in agreement.
"Although I really don't want to interrupt your family reunion, I think I should probably say something."
Kushina ignored Mu Yang and continued talking to Uzumaki Naruto. Namikaze Minato, however, looked at Mu Yang with a sense of caution. "What is your purpose, sir?"
"Purpose?" Mu Yang stroked his chin, tilting his head slightly. "To make a little money, change the world, and make it more exciting."
He turned his head to look at Namikaze Minato. "So, are you interested in making a deal with me?"
Namikaze Minato asked, "What kind of deal?"
Mu Yang waved his hand, and two beams of light flew into the space between Namikaze Minato and Kushina's eyebrows.
Eyes widened!
"Dimensional Shop? Across worlds? Able to buy anything! Unbelievable!"
Kushina and Namikaze Minato were both deeply shocked, their worldviews completely shattered.
"So... you want to be revived?"
"Of course! I don't want to be separated from Naruto again. I want to see Naruto get married and have children!"
Kushina stood up with a "whoosh," her aura fierce as she walked in front of Mu Yang.
"I'll exchange all the Ninjutsu knowledge in my mind for money!"
Then, she turned her head and shouted at Namikaze Minato, "Minato, hurry up! Exchange your Ninjutsu knowledge too, and see if we have enough money!"
"They're coming, they're coming."
Uzumaki Naruto scratched his little head. Although the world's changes were too fast for him to understand, he did understand the conversation between the three of them.
A good person could bring his parents back to life.
Mu Yang, who had let him see his parents, was a good person in Naruto's eyes. The Mu Yang who could revive his parents was now upgraded to a super good person in Naruto's heart.
"Super good person! Super good person! I have money too! I have money too!" Little Naruto ran into the bedroom, hugged a piggy bank, and ran out again, holding it up to Mu Yang.
He wanted his parents to stay by his side.
Mu Yang didn't take it. He looked at Uzumaki Naruto, whose eyes were shining, then turned to look at Uzumaki Kushina and Namikaze Minato. He held out his hand towards the two of them, his fist opening slowly. Two black cards and two gold coins appeared in his palm.
"The cards are membership cards, the gold coins are Revival Coins."
"Don't worry, even souls can touch the membership card and Revival Coins."
Namikaze Minato and Kushina accepted the card and Revival Coins. They glanced at each other and then crushed the Revival Coins together.
The shattered Revival Coins dispersed into countless golden lights, enveloping the two of them and forming two cocoons of light, obscuring the view of what was happening inside.
"So pretty!" Uzumaki Naruto said, hugging his piggy bank.
"Indeed, very pretty."
Watching the scene before him, Mu Yang suddenly thought of a very appropriate phrase.
The seven-year deadline had arrived, and the Dragon King (strike out) Hokage (strike out) the Hokage's wife returned with her husband, only to find that her son had been bullied and was eating expired food. She instantly erupted in rage...
She charged into the Hokage's office, punching the elderly man, and the entire Konohagakure went boom!
