Chapter 308 The Grand Finale Part 1: Her Death is a Curse on the World (Best Ending)
Based on your preferences, I've included three endings in total. You can choose your favorite ending as the final ending of this book.
Ending 1: A world where Haruko doesn't exist (Bad Ending)
Ending Two: Haruko's longed-for happy and peaceful life, a perfect happy ending.
Ending 3: A little fantasy, a sweet treat (because the author had previously seen that the little cutie didn't want Haruko to be too self-sacrificing, so the author came up with this idea).

Upon receiving Orochimaru's message, Konoha immediately mobilized to defend against Akatsuki.
However, outside the village, they discovered that Obito Uchiha, who had been missing for many years, was fighting against Akatsuki, while the five Paths of Pain lay on the ground, like lifeless corpses.
Obito Uchiha was bewildered as he was surrounded and cheered by the crowd.
His inner unease and panic reached their peak when he easily defeated Payne.
Ignoring the confusion on the faces of those around him, Obito Uchiha seemed to have lost his mind and chased straight in the direction where Konan and the others had left.
We swiftly traversed the forest, parting layers of shady green leaves.
Obito Uchiha saw a figure.
Obito Uchiha knew that one of the two Pain figures, who were crouching together, was the real Yahiko.
But he didn't have time to investigate; he landed beside them almost impatiently and looked in the direction they had surrounded.
I didn't see anything.
They seemed to be simply squatting there, if you ignored their despondent expressions.
Obito Uchiha's heart skipped a beat.
He grabbed Yahiko by the collar, pulled the distraught Yahiko to his feet, and shouted, "What happened?!"
Yahiko turned to him with lifeless eyes and let out a bitter laugh.
"She's dead... I killed her..."
Obito's choked-up answer confirmed his unease, and an overwhelming sense of fear gradually enveloped him.
Obito Uchiha loosened his grip, inexplicably afraid to face everything. He didn't want to hear Yahiko's specific name, and he only wanted to escape as quickly as possible while deceiving himself.
But the base guards who came to question him shattered his last hope.
"Has Haruko returned to Konoha? She said she was going back alone, but Lord Orochimaru didn't see her on the screen!"
The Konoha ninjas following behind Obito Uchiha all shook their heads; their top priority was to take down Akatsuki.
Obito Uchiha, who was staggering away, heard everything.
The blood-red kaleidoscope was instantly covered by a mist of tears. He raised his hand to shield his eyes, but could not stop the tears from streaming down his face.
fraud……
The Reverse-Style Kaba Eye is a powerful eye technique sealed within Konoha's highest archives.
It is also known as the Cursed Eye.
It separates the dead from happiness, leaving the living to struggle and sink into pain.
Her death was a curse on the world.
After Haruko Hayama disappeared, the power of Kabana's Eye Imprisonment was fully released.
In an instant, everyone saw the image of Haruko Hayama.
In the scene, Orochimaru seeks out Tsunade to heal his sealed hands, and the three Sannin engage in a decisive battle. Haruko Hayama is forced to use her eye technique for the first time to travel back in time.
Haruko Hayama, who has no memory of her past, meets Tsunade, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Hiruko, becoming their close friend and fighting alongside them. She saves Konoha's White Fang and throws herself into the Second Shinobi World War.
The death of Nawaki triggered Haruko Hayama to remember everything. Disregarding her own safety, she rushed to the battlefield, hoping to bring peace to Konoha as soon as possible.
In the end, in order to save Yahiko and the other two, he died in a trap set by Hanzo the Salamander and Danzo Shimura.
Back in reality, Haruko Hayama forgets all the changes she made. The Uchiha survived because of her, but they also launched a coup because of her.
Inside the dimly lit Hokage Building, Haruko Hayama, standing opposite Sasuke Uchiha, once again uses her eye technique to travel back in time.
The side effects of her eye technique made her body extremely fragile. She endured the torment of illness day after day, yet she still insisted on stepping onto the battlefield of the Third Shinobi World War.
After saving Obito Uchiha and awakening her memories, she tried to maximize the value of her life.
In her final moments, she went to Sunagakure to rescue Gaara's mother, proposed reforms to fight for the rights of the Uchiha clan, and visited the Hyuga clan multiple times in an effort to abolish the Caged Bird Seal.
During the battle against the Nine-Tails, she disguised herself as an ANBU member and rescued Minato Namikaze and Kushina from the Nine-Tails' claws, saving them from sacrifice and separation from their child.
Blinded by her pupil technique, she used her own life force to save countless lives, but her own body continued to deteriorate.
Now, the only way out for her is to become an artificial human or a corpse reincarnation!
If she rests properly, she will have at least a few more years to seek more hope.
But Konoha suffered countless casualties from Akatsuki's attack, and it was she who stood up in the end.
Many people were already sobbing when they saw this.
They desperately wanted to shout through the screen that Haruko Hayama shouldn't leave, but they couldn't speak because of Konoha's stance.
Don't they already know what happened next?
They are the biggest beneficiaries! They have no right to feel sorry for Haruko Hayama!
The girl, who longed for a peaceful life, bore all the responsibilities and pain in the years that no one knew about.
What a tragedy!
Haruko's body had been completely destroyed, leaving no trace, and she had disappeared from this world forever.
To commemorate her greatness, a separate tombstone was erected for her at the Heroes' Memorial, clearly recording the life contributions of this young woman who was not yet twenty years old.
At the request of the Uchiha clan, the Hokage granted them special permission to erect a tombstone for Haruko Hayama at the clan's Naka Shrine.
Every day, members of the clan would go to the Naga Shrine to visit her, to see the benefactor and family of the Uchiha clan, and to see the little princess whom the Uchiha clan cherished.
The cries echoing through the shrine were long and drawn out.
Only when the night is deep and quiet can a composed person shed their outer shell and reveal their inner self.
Uchiha Sasuke stood before the lonely tombstone, his body still radiating the chill of the night.
After his hands warmed up a bit, he gently reached out and placed his fingertips on the even colder stone.
His soliloquy echoed in the spacious, quiet room.
“After you left without a word, Naruto locked himself in the house. I bet he cried in bed every day. You care about him so much, how could you bear to make him sad?”
"Shikamaru and the others are pretty much the same. None of them have cheered up. It really surprises me that someone as rational as Shikamaru would be so dejected."
“Kakashi…” Sasuke Uchiha was silent for a moment, then said, “Never mind, go see him yourself.”
A tall young man in a police uniform sat beside the tombstone, turning his head to quietly trace her current appearance with his gaze.
Just like every past moment when someone caught a glimpse of her face out of the corner of their eye.
The candlelight flickered, and the room was filled with silence.
After a long silence, a sigh was heard: "Why don't you come and see me first?"
...
All members of the Akatsuki organization were S-class wanted criminals. After the three leaders were taken away by Konoha, the rest of them left Akatsuki one after another.
The character 晓 (xiao), meaning the first light of dawn, is shattered into a dark mass.
Before the Five Kage's verdict was delivered, Nagato, who had been unable to leave due to his long-term control over Pain, left his hidden tree hollow for the first time.
As the sunrise bathed him, he closed his eyes and a single tear fell from his eye.
He then used the heretical technique of reincarnation to release the souls of all the innocent victims who had died in the years because of the peace plan, sacrificing his own life in the process.
Upon receiving news of Nagato's death, Minato Namikaze, who sat in the Hokage's seat, remained silent for a long time.
Dark clouds loomed outside the window, just like that morning when desperate cries echoed through the corridor.
He was also one of those who contributed to Haruko Hayama's death.
After forcing himself to concentrate on handling the urgent official business, Minato Namikaze took off the cloak symbolizing the Hokage and draped it over his chair before leaving the Hokage's office.
Inside the hospital.
Tsunade glanced at Kushina, who was lying on the hospital bed with her head turned to look out the window, and led Minato Namikaze out of the ward.
He whispered, "There's nothing wrong with my body, it's just that I'm feeling down."
This result was within Minato Namikaze's expectations. He rubbed the bridge of his nose wearily and forced a smile.
"Thank you, Tsunade-senpai."
Tsunade's gaze involuntarily swept over the dark circles under his eyes, she pursed her lips, and tried to persuade him.
"You should get checked out too."
Reminded by the medical expert, Minato Namikaze subconsciously forced a calm facade, his gentle expression and feigned composure only making people feel sorry for him.
He waved his hand, "I'm fine. The Hokage can't fall."
Since he himself refused, Tsunade didn't bring it up again. After all, she was powerless to do so at the moment, and the reason she personally came to take charge of the inspection was because of Kushina.
Kushina, lying quietly in her hospital bed, looked just like she used to be.
After a long absence, Tsunade called out Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Hiruko, who had just returned to the village, to drink together.
They hadn't gotten together like this in a long time.
Even after meeting Haruko Hayama, they didn't have time to get together, and as a result, they missed their last gathering of five.
After drinking, they were unlikely to do it again.
Orochimaru and Hiruko continued their research, putting aside the immortality project and focusing on resurrection, spending almost every day and night at the base.
But if even the soul is gone, what's the point of talking about resurrection...?
But none of them objected, even Tsunade, who drowned her sorrows in alcohol day and night, harbored a sliver of hope in her heart.
Jiraiya once again embarked on a journey away from the village, alone.
His impetuous disciple said he would dedicate his life to guarding and protecting Konoha, which she cherished.
Jiraiya didn't have much faith in him either, and was even a little worried that when he returned, Obito Uchiha, who had been guarding the city wall without eating or drinking, would still be alive.
As time passed, Konoha produced a wealth of talent and made rapid progress in all fields, becoming the undisputed leader of the Five Great Nations.
Konoha truly embodied the ideals of being strong while upholding peace, negotiating with major powers and providing mutual assistance to smaller nations, leading the ninja world to create a peaceful and prosperous era.
...
And so, Haruko Hayama, a young girl who longed for peace and happiness, sowed the seeds of true peace for the world with her life.
Later generations have continued to sing her legendary story, and everyone knows her name, her deeds, and her glorious image.
The statue of the girl standing in the center of Konoha has become an indelible symbol of peace in the ninja world.
Jiraiya let out a long sigh as he put down the last period.
During his long journey, he wrote and revised repeatedly until he finally completed this biography of Haruko Hayama, titled "The Words of the Rising Sun".
A clear morning sky is the most hopeful of all.
The dawn light shines upon the earth, dispelling all the darkness that shrouds people's hearts.
The vitality and purity that permeate the book are the last spiritual gift that the girl left to the world.
