Chapter 276

Iruka was a bit embarrassed, and after thinking for a while, he continued:

"Heroes risk their lives for us on the battlefield; if they can't even receive the corresponding glory, then their sacrifices are simply not worth it!"

"... Thank you for your understanding!"

After a moment of silence, Uchiha Obito said seriously!

And when the others saw this scene, smiles also appeared on their faces!

"It's fortunate that Iruka exists by Naruto's side!"

In the Konoha viewing area, Uchiha Shisui looked at the video and said with a gratified smile!

"That's right! If it weren't for Iruka, Naruto might have really become like the one in the video!"

Uchiha Itachi, beside him, nodded in agreement!

"Whatever, this can also be considered a very good ending!"

Uchiha Shisui revealed a big smile and continued:

"How about we go celebrate? We couldn't help Naruto celebrate when he was born because of the martial law, so how about we make it up to him today!"

"Alright! I have the same intention!"

Uchiha Itachi also smiled and said!

"Should we continue playing it?"

In the Hokage Office, Jiraiya asked!

"No, we have more important things to do next!"

Minato and Kushina looked at each other and said with a smile!

"More important things?"

Rin asked with some confusion!

"Yes, more important things!"

Kushina nodded and looked at the Naruto she was holding in her arms!

The people present, hearing what Kushina said, couldn't help but show expressions of confusion!

"When Naruto was born, because there were too many things going on, plus Kushina's physical condition, we never celebrated Naruto's birthday!

Today, it's rare that both of us are free, so we want to properly make up for it for Naruto.

How about it, do you want to come along?"

Minato invited them with a smile!

"Would it be inconvenient for us to go? And it's so sudden, we haven't even prepared any gifts!"

Everyone looked at each other, and Jiraiya came out to speak!

"It's fine, it's just a small celebration, no need to make it so grand!"

"But..."

Everyone was still hesitant!

"A birthday party? The more people, the more fun! Everyone, just consider it joining in the fun!"

Hearing Minato and his wife say this, everyone stopped hesitating.

And so, a large group of people headed toward the cake shop in a grand manner!

"Greetings, Fourth Hokage-sama, Kushina-sama, Young Master Naruto!"

Along the way, everyone who knew their family came out to greet them!

At the beginning, Minato and Kushina could still respond with smiles!

But as more and more people came, the couple couldn't quite handle it.

After exchanging glances with everyone, they all sped up!

"Minato-sama, what is this?"

Such a large group of people coming to the cake shop together really gave the owner a fright.

When he reacted, the cake shop owner hurriedly asked!

"Sorry, we scared you! We'd like to order a birthday cake."

Minato said with a smile!

"A birthday cake? May I ask whose birthday we are celebrating?"

The cake shop owner asked with confusion!

"It's to celebrate Naruto's birthday!"

Kushina said with a smile!

"Young Master Naruto?!"

(Group info omitted)

The cake shop owner's pupils dilated; first confused, then a wild, ecstatic smile appeared on his face!

"Don't worry, I'll do it right away!

One hour—no, 40 minutes will be enough, I guarantee I'll make the best-looking cake to celebrate Young Master Naruto's birthday!"

"But we haven't..."

"Don't worry, this cake is my gift for Young Master Naruto's birthday. Young Master Naruto has been so good to our Konoha Village, and we treated him so badly in the past; I've actually always felt very guilty in my heart!

Now that there's a rare opportunity to make amends, I want to make this cake with my own hands and give it to you; please, you must accept it!"

After finishing, the cake shop owner bowed deeply to everyone!

Afterward, without waiting for Minato and the others to reply, he walked directly into the kitchen!

"..."

Minato and the others looked at each other, helplessly watching this scene!

And at this moment, it's unknown who leaked the news.

It seemed the entire Konoha Village had received the news that the Fourth Hokage was going to celebrate Uzumaki Naruto's birthday!

And so, they began to organize spontaneously; some were responsible for making food, while others were responsible for making decorations for Minato and the others to set up the scene!

Almost in an instant, everyone in Konoha was in motion!

As the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze naturally received the news immediately!

The development of events gave Minato a headache, but at the same time, he felt a deep sense of gratification!

At the very least, it proved that the sacrifices his family had made over the years weren't in vain!

So, under the suggestions of everyone, Minato finally decided to change the location of the celebration to Konoha Square!

Afterward, Minato also had the Anbu inform everyone in Konoha of this news!

With this, the entire Konoha began to boil with excitement!

Everyone flocked toward Konoha Square!

These people didn't come empty-handed; some were responsible for preparing tables and chairs, some brought trash bags to clean up the trash in Konoha Square, and others brought cleaning tools, wanting to thoroughly clean Konoha Square!

And those who were wealthy were responsible for providing funds; major merchants, dignitaries from major countries, and even the Daimyo of the Five Great Nations donated quite a bit of money!

And the chefs from major food establishments, led by Uncle Teuchi, were responsible for preparing the food!

Major decoration shops in Konoha also closed their doors one after another, then took out their own decorations and joined the ranks of decorating the venue!

And all the cake shops in Konoha closed their doors, each customizing a birthday cake for Naruto!

This night, whether you were from Konoha or another country.

Everyone put aside their past prejudices and began to work together!

At this moment, everyone had only one goal in their hearts.

That was to hold a birthday party for Naruto!

And the high-ranking officials from Konoha or other countries who were originally following Minato had all set out as well!

Some were responsible for managing the venue's layout, some were going to supervise order, and some were going to be responsible for patrolling security!

Almost in an instant, everyone was busy and having a great time!

And at this moment, the ones who were the most idle were Minato and Kushina!

Because the cake shop owner said he would personally deliver the cake to Konoha Square, Minato and Kushina began to stroll around Konoha with nothing to do!

An hour passed by in a flash!

By the time Minato and Kushina arrived at Konoha Square, everyone had almost finished preparing!

At this moment, Konoha Square was brightly lit, filled with fresh flowers, and in the very center stood a huge stone statue of Minato, Kushina, and Naruto's family!
