After killing Sasori, Jiryoku turned around to face everyone, giving them a glimpse of his eyes. However, as soon as they saw Jiryoku's eyes, he closed them again. This perplexed everyone present, and they were also shocked at how swiftly Jiryoku had destroyed each and every one of Sasori's puppets and killed Sasori as if toying with him.
Just after Jiryoku finished killing Sasori, Naruto and Kakashi arrived and saw everyone in a state of shock. This confused them a bit, wondering what might have happened to cause such confusion among the group.
Once both Kakashi and Naruto had returned, everyone also came back to their senses and suppressed the questions they wanted to ask Jiryoku. Naruto placed Gaara's body on the ground, and like him, everyone remained silent, mourning Gaara's death.
"I failed, and I wasn't able to save him," said Naruto, clenching his fists and crying.
"There was nothing you could have done; it was the duty of us from Sunagakure to protect our Kazekage, but we totally failed in doing so and lost him," said Chiyo while walking in the direction of Gaara.
"Now, the very least I can do for Sunagakure is to return their Kazekage," said Chiyo while placing her hand on Gaara's stomach.
"What are you trying to do, you old woman?" said Naruto in anger and frustration. He thought that Chiyo was just trying to console herself by attempting to heal Gaara.
Chiyo didn't pay much attention to Naruto's words and turned towards Jiryoku, saying, "You are very powerful. I don't know what you did, but thank you very much for letting my grandson rest in peace. And now, I can also meet my grandson again soon."
Jiryoku simply nodded in response and didn't say anything.
After that, Chiyo asked for Naruto's help to lend her some chakra. As Sakura had told Naruto to lend Chiyo chakra, he did just that. Afterward, Chiyo fell to the ground, and after a few hours, the rest of the Sunagakure ninjas who were coming to aid in Kazekage's rescue arrived. When they got there, they were met with an unexpected surprise: Kazekage Gaara woke up. Seeing this, every Sunagakure ninja present was overjoyed.
But when they learned about Chiyo's death and her sacrifice to bring Gaara back to life, everyone felt sad.
After his goal was achieved, Jiryoku was ready to leave for Konoha. At this time, Gaara walked up to Jiryoku and said, "Thank you very much for coming to rescue me."
"You don't have to thank me for that. The main reason I came was because I myself have enmity with Akatsuki," replied Jiryoku.
"Whatever your reasons may be, thank you very much," said Gaara.
After that, Gaara had a talk with Naruto about their own matters, which Jiryoku didn't even bother to listen to. He walked over to Ino, Shikamaru, and Choji.
"I have a few things to take care of, so I should be leaving. We will meet again next time," said Jiryoku.
Shikamaru and the others nodded, but Ino stepped forward to Jiryoku and said, "Promise me that next time we meet, you will take me on a date."
"I promise that the next time we meet, I will take you on a date," said Jiryoku.
"By the way, why did you close your eyes? Your eyes are so beautiful," said Ino.
"I can't keep them open for too long. You can think of it as a similar case to Kakashi with his Sharingan," said Jiryoku.
"Do they constantly consume your chakra when they are open?" asked Shikamaru.
"No, it's not exactly the same as Kakashi. My eyes are quite different. If I keep them open for too long, there is a high chance that I will go completely blind, or I might go mad. But since I have a huge amount of mental energy, I won't go mad. Instead, I would lose my eyesight, which I wouldn't want after getting my eyes back after so long. This problem isn't unsolvable, and I have awakened this ability recently. That's why I am not able to control it properly. Once I achieve perfect control over it, I can activate and deactivate the ability of my eyes whenever I want. Although there will be a restriction on the time duration for how long I can use the ability of the eyes, I can keep my normal eyes open, just not my 'Mystic Eye of Death'," replied Jiryoku.
Finally, Shikamaru, Ino, and Choji learned the name of Jiryoku's eye.
"By the way, did you see me?" asked Ino.
"Yes, of course, that's why I turned towards you all after killing Sasori," said Jiryoku.
"So, how do I look?" asked Ino.
"Umm... what should I say... You're different from what I imagined... I mean, you look good but... I never thought you would look so gorgeous that I almost forgot to close my eyes," said Jiryoku with a laugh.
"You bastard, making me nervous all the time for nothing," said Ino, trying to be angry but smiling after getting praised for her beauty by Jiryoku.
"What a drag. Would you both stop this? We're all single, you know," said Shikamaru.
"It's not my problem, and anyway, I think you've already found love," Jiryoku replied before floating into the air. "Okay, we'll meet again later." With that, Jiryoku soon disappeared into the clouds, and with the rumbling of thunder, he was gone.
"I love seeing Jiryoku like this," said Ino.
"Yeah, it almost seems like he's not the same Jiryoku who never even smiled once," added Shikamaru.
After that, Shikamaru and the others left for Sunagakure, from where they would be heading to Konoha.
