"Ah!!!" Doto Kazahana's miserable scream echoed through the valley.

His body was fixed in mid-air by the airflow, and countless wind blades, too small to be seen by the naked eye, were cutting every cell of his body.

"Such a high attack frequency!" Kakashi said in shock.

Under the observation of his Sharingan, he could almost clearly see every small wind blade, like a fine needle, but there were too many to count.

Last time, the situation was urgent, and he didn't have time to observe this jutsu. This time was different; he had been watching the two of them the whole time, and he now understood the attack effect of this jutsu.

"This person... is definitely dead..." Kakashi didn't think anyone could survive such injuries.

Even if Doto Kazahana were sent to Tsunade right now, Tsunade would only shake her head, smile, and point to the Forest of Death: "He's not cold yet. Feed him while he's still warm."

[With such a strong attack effect, then the caster...] Kakashi turned his head to look at Naruto's slightly trembling hand.

"Sure enough, he's also affected," Kakashi muttered to himself.

After the storm brought by the Rasenshuriken subsided, Kakashi used Body Flicker to appear beside Naruto and observe Naruto's arm.

[Is it the same injury as the one being attacked?]

"What's wrong?" Sasuke and Sakura also ran over and asked.

"The cells and the meridian system connecting the cells are both damaged," Sasuke explained to Sakura. He could also see Naruto's injury. This was different from all the ninjutsu damage he knew of; it could actually directly attack cells!

Last time, after Naruto used the Rasenshuriken, he directly activated the secret technique - Nine Seconds of Death. The damage caused to himself by the eight-second secret technique directly masked the injury from the Rasenshuriken, so Sasuke didn't notice it at that time either.

"Naruto, this technique in the future..." Before Kakashi could finish, he saw Naruto's injury already starting to slowly recover.

"This..."

Is this kid still human? Even this kind of injury can heal on its own?

"Twenty minutes," Sasuke calculated the specific recovery time.

Kakashi was speechless. The ninjutsu this kid developed really suited his physical condition. That secret technique, a normal person would definitely die after using it, but this kid would be fine in two days. And this advanced Rasengan ninjutsu, an injury that an ordinary person wouldn't hope to recover from in their lifetime, he could recover from in twenty minutes.

Most importantly, both of these were considered forbidden jutsu. Even the shadow clone explosion derived from that secret technique was considered a secret technique.

The last person who so crazily created forbidden jutsu was Orochimaru, and he killed his teacher, the Third Hokage!

Kakashi suddenly felt a chill run straight to the top of his head.

But on second thought, Kakashi felt relieved again.

Orochimaru created forbidden jutsu to live longer, preferably forever.

This kid created forbidden jutsu to die quickly, nine seconds at the fastest.

[Perhaps this kid can create even faster ones in the future...]

"Slap."

Kakashi slapped himself.

What am I thinking? That's Sensei's child.

"Kakashi-sensei, what's wrong with you?" Naruto asked, puzzled.

Why did he suddenly hit himself out of nowhere?

"It's nothing. Anyway, use this technique less in the future."

"Mm." Naruto agreed readily. He wouldn't use this technique like this in the future. Once he learned Sage Mode, he could just throw it around for fun.

"Naruto, let me take a look for you." Green chakra lit up in Sakura's hand; it should be some kind of medical ninjutsu.

"Okay." Naruto extended his hand: "Thanks, Brother Sakura."

The chakra in Sakura's hand fluctuated violently: "Naruto, can you please not call me Brother Sakura? I'm a girl too."

"Okay, Brother Sakura. No problem, Brother Sakura."

"You!" A tic mark appeared on Sakura's forehead.

"Don't do it! I'm injured, and besides, Sasuke is watching. Pay attention to your image as a girl!"

While they were bickering, Sasuke was lost in thought.

He was recalling the look in Naruto's clone's eyes earlier.

He always felt like he had seen that look before, but he couldn't remember from whom.

"The gate is open!"

"It's finally open!"

Sandayū led the charge out of the stronghold, holding swords and blades.

They had wanted to push open the gate as soon as they heard the commotion outside, but the gate was pressed shut by a strong wind and couldn't be opened.

Later, when they could finally push it, another gust of wind slammed the gate shut again.

"It's Doto Kazahana!" Someone in the crowd with good eyesight immediately recognized Doto Kazahana lying on the ground. Their eyes turned red, and they picked up their weapons and attacked.

Behind them followed dozens of equally enraged people.

Doto Kazahana was beaten to death. The scene was overly bloody, but too many people were Encircling him, so the four of them here didn't see it.

A once-great hegemon died without a shred of a strong person's dignity.

Kakashi didn't step forward to stop them because he hadn't participated in the battle, so it wasn't his place to decide how to deal with him.

Sasuke was lost in thought.

Naruto didn't care because he had already seen through this world.

There was no such thing as a strong person's dignity in this world.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, famed for being able to destroy a country with just seven people, were beaten to death, four of them by a single Genin from the east end of the village with one punch each. Did they have dignity?

Sasori of the Red Sand, an existence capable of destroying a country by himself, was killed by the village doctor and an old lady from the neighboring village. Did he have dignity?

Kaguya, the world-destroying demoness, was sealed by two teenagers from the village who were just passing by. Did she have dignity?

And that wasn't even the most undignified. The most undignified was Uchiha Madara.

He was actually killed by the black placenta that Kaguya had squeezed out after years of being stuck in her belly when she gave birth to the Sage of Six Paths brothers. Tell me, how frustratingly did he die?

So, Doto Kazahana being beaten to death by a group of ordinary people seemed quite fitting for his status in Naruto's eyes.

Finally, a group of revolutionary army soldiers carried Doto Kazahana away in an ice coffin, presumably to hold some kind of mourning ceremony.

After politely declining Sandayū's invitation, the four of them gathered around Koyuki Kazahana.

"Sakura, how is it?" Kakashi, holding a sage's book, asked while turning a page.

"No good, there are still some things I don't understand."

Sakura released chakra with one hand to examine Koyuki Kazahana's condition, while writing and drawing in a notebook with the other.

Many solutions had already been crossed out in the notebook.

"If you don't understand, then go look it up." Naruto created a shadow clone and then opened a portal directly to the Konoha Hospital.

"Ah? Oh." Sakura clearly still couldn't keep up with Naruto's train of thought.

"I'll bring you back in half an hour."

"Thanks a lot, Naruto."

"You're welcome, Brother Sakura."

"You!!!"

After sending Sakura off, Naruto created a few more shadow clones and sent them back to the small forest in Konoha and home.

The combination of shadow clones and portals was really too useful.

Half an hour later, Sakura returned. She had written down a bunch more solutions but still felt they weren't right.

"Naruto, can you send me back one more time?" Sakura felt very awkward.

The patient was lying on the sickbed, and she was learning as she treated. This really didn't seem like the way a normal medical-nin should provide treatment.

"Okay." Naruto sent her back again.

Kakashi directly slapped the book onto his face. He couldn't stand it anymore; these three were too bizarre.

He could see that Naruto was letting Sakura practice. Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to send her directly to the hospital? Why make Sakura run back and forth like this?

This time, he didn't even need his intuition; he dared to say that his three subordinates would definitely be top figures in the ninja world in the future.

Other squads practiced against mountain bandits, pirates, rogue ninjas, and the like.

His own squad directly started with Zabuza, Orochimaru, and Tailed Beasts.

Other medical-nin practiced on fish, animals, and the like.

The medical-nin in his team practiced on the future Daimyo of the Land of Snow.

This starting point was practically at the finish line. How could their future achievements be poor!

Finally, after Sakura had run back and forth between the Land of Snow and Konoha Hospital for a whole day, Koyuki Kazahana woke up.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Koyuki Kazahana saw several people looking down at her, and the voice of that yellow-haired boy reached her ears.

"You're awake. Time to get up and ascend the throne."

"???"
