Chapter 427: Reincarnation, Karin's Thoughts

The mission was accomplished, and Gaara was found by them, but unfortunately, he was already dead.

Ultimately, the mission failed.

Looking at the lonely Chiyo, everyone tacitly agreed not to disturb each other.

"Don't be so unhappy." Chiyo felt the oppressive atmosphere. She raised her head and tried her best to force a smile.

"Isn't the mission accomplished? Thank you, little guys of Konoha."

Haruno Sakura looked worried: "Granny Chiyo."

Uzumaki Naruto couldn't hold it back anymore and tears welled up in his eyes.

"why."

"Why is this happening? Blame me. Blame me for not practicing hard enough. If I practiced harder, maybe, maybe..."

"Alright, kid." Chiyo smiled kindly, "Gaara should be happy to have a friend like you."

Are you happy?

Uzumaki Naruto didn't know.

When people die, do they go to another world, or does everything become meaningless? Can we still feel friends or friendship?

He looked at Gaara and vaguely saw himself.

They both had miserable life stories and were both Jinchūriki. They both had a different fate from ordinary people since childhood and were isolated and hated by the people in the village.

Perhaps, he would have been just like the other person, growing up in loneliness and solitude, dying in a fight, and unable to find relief from regrets.

Yes. They are the same people.

Compared to Gaara, he was just a little luckier.

He has been surrounded by Grandpa Hokage, Sensei Iruka, seniors like Hatake Kakashi, and friends like Sasuke and Sakura.

And...Boss.

If, when he was four years old, Suzumiya Musashi had not appeared in his life, would his fate be so different from Gaara's?

He didn't know, but at this moment, looking at Gaara's cold body, his heart was filled with sympathy and regret.

If they had known...if they had known this, they should have been good friends from the beginning.

"do not Cry."

There was tenderness in Chiyo's voice.

"Gaara would laugh at you if he saw you like this."

Uzumaki Naruto raised his red eyes.

"Granny Chiyo, you don't have to comfort me."

"Gaara, you can't laugh at me anymore."

"Who said that?" Chiyo smiled at Uzumaki Naruto as if she was teasing her grandson: "You should wipe your tears. If Gaara sees this when he wakes up, don't say I didn't tell you."

Before Uzumaki Naruto could say anything else, Chiyo had already stretched out her hands.

There was determination and relief in her eyes.

Chakra surged with the breath of life above her hands. She placed her hands on Gaara's chest, and streams of chakra were drawn from her body and flowed into his.

"I've said it before, old people who are outdated should hide in the library and be accompanied by dust, and never come out."

"It's all trouble when it comes out."

"Now, it's time to take a good rest."

Uzumaki Naruto, Might Guy and others didn't understand the meaning of Chiyo's words, but Hatake Kakashi, Sai and others changed their expressions.

They looked at Chiyo's actions in disbelief, their eyes filled with great surprise.

What the other party meant, could it be that...

As if he had thought of something, Hatake Kakashi looked at Chiyo with a suspicious look.

【impossible. 】

[In the ninja world, such a technique is only a legend, no one has ever been able to master it! ]

Kakashi Hatake and the others were just surprised and suspicious, but after the initial shock, Uzumaki Karin gradually became certain of her guess.

She felt the vitality rapidly draining from Chiyo's body.

It's not just chakra, but the real breath of life.

As Chiyo performed her technique, the chakra in her body rapidly weakened at a terrifying speed, and along with it, the already limited vitality in her body also disappeared.

On the contrary, a strong breath of life was appearing on Gaara's body, recovering from nothing at an extremely fast speed.

"How amazing." Uzumaki Karin couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Upon hearing this, Chiyo raised her head while continuing to move her hands.

The wrinkles on his face seemed to be deeper.

"A little girl from Konoha."

"Did you see it?"

Uzumaki Karin was silent, then nodded.

Chiyo exclaimed in praise. "Incredible."

"You should be the first one to sense it among so many people."

"It's really enviable that Konoha has a young man like you~"

Uzumaki Karin said, "You're too kind."

Chiyo shook her head.

This is her true thought.

It was originally thought that Tsunade's disciple Haruno Sakura had an extremely powerful supernatural power, and the medical ninjutsu inherited from Tsunade was also far superior to her peers, so her future was limitless.

I didn't expect that there was a girl like Uzumaki Karin in Konoha.

Compared to her, even a talented girl like Haruno Sakura seems ordinary.

Thinking of the golden chains that crisscrossed the space before, and thinking of the opponent's arrogant and powerful posture after his momentum exploded, it was simply a terrifying level that a young ninja could not possess.

She sighed again: "No wonder Konoha has been the most powerful ninja village for many years."

"With endless stream of geniuses like you, it's no wonder they're so powerful. I really hope Sunagakure can be like this in the future."

"It's a pity that I will never see it again."

"Granny Chiyo!" Haruno Sakura exclaimed.

She also noticed the change in Chiyo's aura.

"Don't be nervous." Chiyo smiled and comforted, "It's not a big deal."

"People always die."

"I have experienced several ninja wars, lost my loved ones several times, and lived for so many years in vain. It's enough."

"I have reached an age where even death is not worth regretting, so... don't be sad."

Tears welled up in Haruno Sakura's eyes.

It has only been such a short time, and Grandma Chiyo, whom she had a good impression of, is going to die.

Chiyo lowered her head and focused her eyes back on her hands.

He said to himself, "This is a forbidden technique I invented, the technique of reincarnation."

"Originally, it was prepared for Scorpion's parents."

"Now that I'm dead, this technique will accompany me to the grave."

"Let it work for once."

"Gaara is the Kage of the village. I have noticed his changes. With him around, he will surely lead the Sand Village into a different future."

"Granny Chiyo." Uzumaki Karin suddenly spoke.

She took a step forward and came in front of Chiyo, looking more serious than ever before.

"Although it may be a bit presumptuous, I would like to ask, can you teach me this technique?"

Chiyo slowly raised her head.

She quietly looked at Uzumaki Karin, whose expression was extremely serious, and a sincere smile appeared on her old face, with a hint of pity in her smile.

She said, "No."

"I believe in your promise, but the reincarnation technique requires the life of the practitioner."

"Besides, trust me."

"The person in your heart absolutely, absolutely, will not want you to learn this technique."
