"I suspect you just want us to take care of the kids for you."
On the large plaza of Uzushiogakure, Gaara looked with black lines at the children beside him who were silently staring at him.
Those were among the children Naruto had rescued.
Counting them all, these children had all undergone two Kama modifications. In terms of blood purity, they might even be close to Toneri.
And perhaps because they had huge Tailed Beast's Chakra within them, these little brats seemed instinctively drawn to the Jinchuriki.
Especially when Naruto didn't let them crowd around him, they had to settle for the Jinchuriki instead.
On the other side, Jiraiya, who had been brought back by Naruto, looked at this large, dense group of people and was also a bit stunned.
"Hey, Naruto, what's going on here?"
He knew all the Jinchuriki, but why were there so many more children?
Especially since these children looked quite 'Otsutsuki' in style, making him instinctively associate to Kaguya.
"Well… Jiraiya-sensei, just think of them as homeless orphans who happened to be rescued by me."
As he spoke, Naruto shrugged.
"It's pretty normal, right, sensei? Didn't you also rescue Konan and the others?"
"Well…"
"Ah, speaking of which, they've had a hard life too…"
While Naruto and Jiraiya were talking over here, the Jinchuriki over there also started catching up.
"Yo! Long time no see, everyone! Still healthy?"
B was the most relaxed, happily greeting the others.
"Ah… not bad, I guess. Just recently nearly had these old bones dismantled."
Roshi waved his hand at this, obviously associating to his experience of nearly being killed by Jigen.
"How could that be? I think you look great, Roshi! We'll definitely have to drink a few more cups then!"
B casually approached and enthusiastically put his arm around Roshi's shoulder.
"B, don't be disrespectful. Where are the formal clothes Raikage-sama asked you to change into?"
Yugito beside him was rarely wearing a long dress… considering they were going to Naruto's wedding, a certain level of formality was necessary.
She held her forehead, looking at B, who was still wearing standard Ninja Attire, as if thinking her companion was a bit embarrassing.
"That set of clothes is too ugly, doesn't fit my artist identity! Already discarded by me! YO!"
"YO your—"
"Oh, it's fine, it's fine. No need to be so formal. We can customize suits there too. I know a tailor with great skills. It'll definitely be ready in time."
Naruto finished explaining the whole story to Jiraiya and, upon arriving, saw B getting teased, immediately mediating.
On the other side, in the 'kids' group', Fu was introducing her new friend Toneri to Gaara.
"Hello."
"Hello."
After experiencing the reshaping of his worldview, Toneri had returned to his original personality… a quiet person.
And Gaara was pretty much the same, generally not speaking more than two sentences to people he wasn't too familiar with.
Fortunately, with Fu, who chattered eight sentences a minute, frantically finding topics in between, their meeting didn't turn into a staring contest.
On the other side, Iruka somewhat awkwardly looked at Kakashi.
"So the wedding is being held here? But… it doesn't look like it at all…"
Actually, even now, Iruka still hadn't quite recovered, unable to understand how the little Naruto in his memory had suddenly become this adult form.
"You'll know in a bit."
Kakashi scratched his mask, seeming to have already guessed Naruto's plan.
His gaze focused more on the invited people.
Several Jinchuriki, no problem.
Although not having participated personally, Kakashi knew Naruto had fought alongside these people against the Akatsuki's mastermind… it was normal for them to have a relationship.
Konohamaru… ah, indeed ran out again?
'But looking at his current state, it must be quite troublesome for the Third Hokage to restrict him, right?'
Kakashi looked at Konohamaru, who was clearly taller than his peers, and could even vaguely sense a crisis from him.
'No, no, it must be an illusion. This kid was only how old this year.'
But what really baffled Kakashi was the babysitter duo.
'Sigh… these two were also mixed with Naruto?'
He knew Zabuza and Haku probably hadn't died, but he didn't know their relationship with Naruto was good enough to be invited to the wedding.
Even Naruto's old classmates from the Ninja Academy weren't invited.
'Could it be that he didn't want them to know about the other world?'
In fact, besides Iruka and Toneri, almost everyone present basically knew about Naruto traveling to another world.
Whether it was Naruto himself or Kousei, they hadn't kept this information secret too much—
—which was normal.
After all, ordinary people were afraid of exposing such secrets because they feared inviting death, but what did Naruto have to fear?
The strong should live like the strong. It wasn't about doing whatever you wanted, but not needing to go against your true heart to disguise as an ordinary person.
If he had to disguise myself when he was weak, and still had to disguise after becoming strong, then wasn't the point of getting strong lost?
If someone indulged in things like pretending to be the weak to eat the strong, it actually proved they were just someone who liked 'crushing the weak'.
Maybe they had the power of the strong, but lacked the mindset of a true strong person.
Seeing everyone had about caught up, Naruto clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention.
"Alright, thank you all for the honor of attending my wedding. Next, we'll head to the wedding venue."
As he spoke, Naruto lightly waved his hand, and a larger portal opened.
Some of the invitees showed curious expressions at this.
After all, they had all been instantly brought here by Naruto using Amenotorifune and hadn't experienced a method like Yomotsu Hirasaka.
"By the way, if you feel a little dizzy during the travel, try to stay away from others as much as possible."
Before entering the portal, Naruto kindly reminded them.
But clearly, apart from Konohamaru, no one else realized what 'a little dizzy' meant.
…
Amazon Lily, on a plaza even larger than Uzushiogakure's.
"Ugh—"
Vomiting sounds were incessant.
Except for the very foresighted Konohamaru and the special physique Moon person Toneri, everyone else uncontrollably started projectile vomiting.
"Heh heh…"
Only then did Konohamaru, while calming his breathing, show a proud smile.
'Hmph! Fortunately, I had specially trained… otherwise, I would definitely have embarrassed myself in front of so many people like them.'
The 'turbulence' of traveling between two worlds far exceeded everyone's imagination. The intense dizziness couldn't even be avoided by the Tailed Beasts inside the Jinchuriki.
"Ugh… Chomei says it feels terrible…"
Fu covered her mouth, Toneri supporting her beside him.
"Everyone, look at me!"
B suddenly shouted, then covered his entire body with Tailed Beast Chakra, transforming into a huge octopus.
"This feels much better!"
Gyuki's sudden appearance caused the surrounding Amazon Lily's warrior women to let out small exclamations, followed by a burst of discussion.
"Wow! Is he a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user?"
"This must be the Octopus Fruit, right?"
"What are you talking about? It's obviously the Ushi-Ushi no Mi!" (T/N: Ox-Ox Fruit.)
Hearing this debate, Naruto realized for the first time that the Jinchuriki in their perfect form really were quite similar to Zoan-type Devil Fruit users.
'If Kaido next door saw this, wouldn't he be drooling with envy?'
