Chapter 19: Minato and Kushina

Naruto touched their faces with emotion and murmured in his choked voice: "Mom, Dad…"

After a moment, he continued flipping through the pages. The album contained many photos of Minato and Kushina, as well as pictures of Jiraiya and even Obito, Kakashi, and Rin.

Knowing the story well, Naruto automatically recognized the two young ninjas alongside Minato.

The album ended with a happy photo of Minato and Kushina, already pregnant for several months, probably between the seventh and eighth month of pregnancy.

After shedding some tears, Naruto carefully put the album back in its place.

As he continued exploring the house, he found nothing out of the ordinary. There was only antique furniture, some common books, and spoiled food.

However, despite the apparent simplicity, each detail in that home evoked a deep feeling of connection to his past and family.

Naruto continued investigating the house until he found a door on the first floor that he hadn't explored yet.

Trying to open it, he realized he couldn't: "What?"

Furrowing his brow, Naruto used a bit more force, but still couldn't open it.

Then, he had an idea: he bit his finger and used his chakra while trying to open the door again.

The instant his blood and chakra made contact with the doorknob, sealing patterns appeared in the center of the door and started to rotate like a turnstile.

Gradually, the sounds of gears echoed, and then the door opened with metallic creaks.

Naruto was surprised, definitely not expecting his unusual idea to work.

Upon entering the room, he found himself surrounded by books.

There were all kinds of books, some looking ancient with dark green and black covers, and others with more vivid colors.

"Are they all jutsus?" Naruto murmured, feeling a slight headache, as he couldn't imagine being able to read all of that.

Suddenly, he snapped his fingers and exclaimed excitedly: "Ah, right! I have purple orbs!"

Realizing that he might be able to use the purple orbs to help him absorb the knowledge contained in the books, Naruto began to explore the library with more confidence, eager to discover the secrets his parents had left behind.

The purple orbs had the ability to increase Naruto's perception for a short period, allowing him to recognize his inadequacies. After use, they also increased his mental power.

As he currently had a large number of purple orbs, even if he needed to use one purple orb for each book, it would be worth it.

Over 11,000 purple orbs were not an insignificant amount. Moreover, there were also the special purple orbs he had obtained by defeating some cute rats, which dropped larger and more unique orbs.

Although he hadn't tested these superior purple orbs yet, Naruto could imagine the effect they would have.

"Alright, I'll read all of this!" Naruto raised his right hand into the air with a clenched fist, motivating himself.

Although in this life he didn't enjoy reading much, in his other life he loved it, even having a profession related to reading.

When he picked up the first book, he realized it was actually called the Torii Seal.

Naruto was familiar with this seal and noticed that the book had been rewritten by his mother, Kushina, who had left many notes in it. With determination, he began studying the content, ready to unravel the secrets and techniques left by his parents.

Using a purple orb, Naruto read the entire book, until he sighed in admiration.

"As expected, my mother is fantastic," murmured Naruto.

His eyes sparkled with happiness, not just because he was delving into the sealing jutsu, but because it was something his mother had rewritten.

Carefully putting the book away, he picked up another one beside it, slightly thicker and with an imposing appearance.

[Death Reaper Seal]

Reading the title on the cover, Naruto already knew what kind of technique this was. It was the sealing jutsu his father used to seal the Nine-Tails into his body.

. .

Although he had a bad impression of this seal, Naruto used a purple orb and decided to learn this book as well.

It took 4 purple orbs to read the entire book and understand it.

One important detail was that the author of this book was also his mother, Kushina, which further increased the emotional connection Naruto felt while learning about these techniques.

Naruto carried on tirelessly on his journey to collect books and absorb their content with the help of the purple orbs.

"This is taking too long. I need to speed up the process.

" Naruto murmured, drawing hand signs. In an instant, ten shadow clones appeared around him.

"Alright, guys. Each of you takes a purple orb and picks a book to learn.

"

"Right!" The shadow clones replied in unison, making the room vibrate with sound.

Naruto distributed the purple orbs among the shadow clones and was preparing to pick a new book for himself when a call from outside the house interrupted him. Three quick knocks echoed on the door.

"I'm coming!" Naruto replied, raising his voice.

Exiting the room, he closed the door behind him, allowing the shadow clones to continue the reading task.

Upon reaching the door and opening it, he found Shizune waiting.

"Naruto-kun. " She began, "Tsunade-sama asked me to deliver this to you.

"

She held out a package wrapped in a dark blue floral-patterned cloth.

"Thank you, Shizune. " Naruto thanked her with a smile, accepting the package.

"You're welcome," Shizune replied, looking a bit restless. She alternated her gaze between the ground and Naruto.

Naruto frowned, noticing the strange shift in her demeanor. Before he could ask what was going on, she spoke up.

"See you later, Naruto-kun, good night~" Shizune bid him farewell with a sweeter voice than usual, quickly backing away. However, when she got close to the stairs, she turned to cast one last look at Naruto.

"Y-you have become very handsome, Naruto-kun. .

. See you!" And with that, she took off running across the rooftops.

"What a strange situation. .

. " Naruto scratched the back of his head with his free hand before touching his own face.
