Chapter 541: A Little Strength
Along the way, the closer they get to the center of Konohagakure, the more broken the surrounding building debris becomes.
Although Kaito had noticed when he looked down at Konohagakure from the air before that the entire Konohagakure Village had suffered considerable damage from the Nine-Tails Rebellion.
But only after really walking into it could he feel how much Konohagakure actually lost tonight.
Previously, most of the buildings at the entrance of Konohagakure Village were relatively intact.
But when they got close to the bottom of the Hokage Rock, the location of the original Hokage Building, let alone intact buildings, even the ground seemed to have been plowed.
Nearly one-third of Konohagakure's area was destroyed in one night.
Even though more than two hours had passed, there were still scattered ninjas neatly placed next to the ruins, waiting for treatment.
On the contrary, ordinary people did not seem to be affected too much. Although some injured villagers could be seen sobbing silently with gray eyes, most of them were still assisting the ninjas in the repair and treatment work.
Kaito walked beside Jiraiya, with a flash of pity in his eyes, but he immediately regained his composure.
Kaito stopped slightly until he reached an open space with many injured people.
Then, under Jiraiya's somewhat puzzled gaze, Kaito suddenly began to make seals with both hands at a rapid speed.
"Wind Style: Wind of Revival!"
The emerald green breeze surged around Kaito.
In the blink of an eye, it turned into a series of gentle whirlwinds, with Kaito as the center, and quickly spread out to the surroundings.
Feeling the warm and comfortable feeling brought by the gentle breeze flowing through the body.
The Konohagakure ninjas who were a little alert when they saw Kaito making seals were also slightly relieved.
Jiraiya, who was closest to Kaito and had a deeper understanding of ninjutsu, noticed at the first time that the abundant life energy in his body was healing the injuries he had suffered in the previous battle at a very fast speed.
As the range of the emerald green whirlwind continued to expand, everyone who was blown by the breeze could clearly feel the vitality and energy bursting out of their bodies.
When the breeze blew, those who were less seriously injured could clearly see that the wounds that were originally bleeding were quickly healed under the emerald green energy.
Even some of the more seriously injured stopped wailing in pain after the warmth spread throughout their bodies, and slowly fell asleep.
Everyone looked in the direction of Kaito with surprise.
"What is this..."
"That seems to be the Hokage's hat, no, it's blue?!"
"Is it the Mizukage?"
Listening to the surprised shouts in his ears, Kaito did not stop releasing the ninjutsu in his hand, but instead increased his strength again, continuing to expand the coverage of the "Wind of Revival".
Perhaps it was because Kaito came relatively late.
Those ninjas who were really seriously injured had either been stabilized or died early because they were too late to be treated.
Within the field of vision, most of the mildly and moderately injured were basically completely healed under this wave of treatment.
It was not until Kaito's "keen eyes" noticed that the faces of the few ninjas who were most seriously injured and close to death showed subtle changes that he stopped decisively.
He took two breaths and pretended to be a little tired.
Jiraiya looked at the ninjas around him, some of whom thanked him repeatedly, or hugged their relatives and friends and cried with joy.
With a complicated look in his eyes, he turned to Kaito and thanked him very solemnly.
"Thank you very much, Mizukage-sama, for your help. I am really grateful!"
Although Jiraiya didn't know why the Mizukage would help Konohagakure at this time, his gratitude was not false.
This time, because the Nine-Tails Rebellion broke out inside the village, and the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato was not in the village at the first time, the actual number of casualties may even exceed that of a large-scale battle.
Although the medical ninjutsu in Konohagakure Village is slightly better than that of the other four major ninja villages, due to Tsunade's departure, there is no top medical ninja in charge.
The one-on-one treatment of ordinary medical ninjas can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket for such a large number of casualties.
Even many injuries such as broken arms and legs can only be classified as lightly injured, and others can help with simple bandaging.
He doesn't know how many lives Kaito saved for Konohagakure with this move.
However, in response to Jiraiya's gratitude, Kaito just re-controlled the blood circulation in his body, let his face recover a little blood color, and then waved his hand casually.
"I don't have the speed of Minato, and I can't help in the battle in time. As a healing ninja, I can only do my best."
Jiraiya didn't say anything after hearing this, but bowed again to express his gratitude.
On the contrary, Uchiha Fugaku, who had been following the two silently without saying a word, looked at Kaito's back with an increasingly strange look.
At this moment.
Perhaps it was because the scale of the "Wind of Revival" released by Kaito just now was too large.
In a temporary house under the Hokage Rock in the distance, Namikaze Minato walked out quickly and walked towards the direction of the three people.
However, with Kaito's super vision, he noticed that when he just walked out of the building, Namikaze Minato's expression was particularly ugly, even gloomy, which made people panic a little.
It was not until he was about to get close to the three people that Namikaze Minato's cold expression was slightly restrained, but the chill between his eyebrows still lingered.
After taking a complicated look at Uchiha Fugaku who was walking at the back, Namikaze Minato showed a stiff smile with some difficulty when facing Kaito.
"As I thought It was indeed Mizukage-sama who took action just now. You are really worthy of being the strongest medical ninja in the ninja world. Konohagakure will definitely remember this kindness!"
Kaito didn't pay much attention to Namikaze Minato's polite words.
However, the look he gave Uchiha Fugaku just now was secretly remembered by Kaito.
Logically speaking, as a ninja who became famous for his military exploits in the Third Great Ninja War, Namikaze Minato should have been accustomed to the death of his village comrades.
But Namikaze Minato, who always showed a sunny look, could show that kind of expression.
'It seems that this blow is really big for him.'
Of course, Kaito would not show some of the thoughts in his heart, but replied in a gentle tone.
"Now we have to face a common enemy after all. Helping Konohagakure is also helping ourselves. Regarding this attack..."
Before Kaito could finish his question, Namikaze Minato showed a somewhat painful look, lowered his head slightly, and interrupted with a dry voice.
"Mizukage-sama, this is not the place to talk. Let's talk over here."
After saying that, Namikaze Minato turned around in silence and walked towards the temporary house he had just come from.
