"Those two ran really fast."
Renya noticed that he didn't see the two on the battlefield and instinctively rubbed his brow.
Using Susanoo just now made his eyes a bit uncomfortable.
Honestly, it was a bit of a loss.
He used so much ocular power, yet only managed to kill the Mizukage.
"Poison Master, thank you for saving me."
Hanzō the Salamander dragged his heavily injured body over to Renya.
The earlier battle had inflicted considerable damage on him.
If Renya had arrived a few minutes later, he might have died here.
"A small matter. Later, go to the Medical Division and have the medical-nin treat you."
Renya waved his hand casually.
Since Amegakure and Konoha were allies, lending assistance was only natural.
"If there's nothing else, I'll head back first."
Seeing that Hanzō wasn't saying anything, Renya picked up the Third Mizukage's severed head from the ground and instantly vanished from the battlefield.
Hanzō looked at the place where Renya disappeared and whispered softly.
"So this is the Poison Master's overwhelming power?"
The best decision he ever made in this life was forming an alliance with Konoha.
Otherwise, Amegakure would likely have been wiped out in this war.
"Hanzō the Salamander, where's Renya?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uchiha Kagami hurried over from the distant battlefield. Seeing Hanzō standing alone in the rain, they quickly asked.
They had been ordered to support Renya, yet they didn't see him anywhere.
Weren't the three Kage launching an assault at the same time? Why couldn't they see anyone?
Let alone the three Kage — even Renya was nowhere to be found.
"The Poison Master killed the Third Mizukage. The other two Kage retreated. As for him, he already went back."
Hanzō explained to the two who had arrived late.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uchiha Kagami: "…"
So they ran all this way for nothing?
...
Konoha Command Tent.
Renya casually tossed the bloody head onto the table.
The commander, Nara Mikage, jumped in fright, but once he recognized the head's owner, he immediately became excited.
"T-this is the Third Mizukage's head?!"
He hurriedly and carefully packed the head away into a storage scroll.
Later, the Yamanaka clan could extract information from the Mizukage's mind.
He hadn't expected that Renya, merely going to support Hanzō, managed to kill the Third Mizukage along the way.
As expected of Elite Jōnin Renya — terrifying strength!
Renya finished a set of eye exercises, blinked a few times, then lifted the tent flap and looked into the distance.
He wasn't sure if it was an illusion or psychological suggestion.
Although he had used half-body Susanoo, his vision didn't seem affected.
Not only that, he also noticed his ocular power recovering at a slow rate.
"Haha, these eye exercises really work."
Commander Nara Mikage: "???"
He didn't understand why Renya suddenly started rubbing his eyes, and after finishing, was now standing at the entrance laughing.
"Elite Jōnin Renya, are you alright?" he asked cautiously.
He feared Renya had taken a hit to the head during battle with the three Kage — his behavior seemed far too abnormal.
"I'm fine." Renya replied with a smile.
Since his ocular power recovered slowly, as long as he didn't overuse it, he basically didn't risk blindness.
Looks like in a few years he could go challenge Madara alone.
What's a pair of Rinnegan?
Even if Madara had the Rinnegan, Renya didn't believe a seventy-year-old Madara could use it perfectly.
Worst case, he'd just find a chance to unplug his oxygen tube.
Renya's confidence swelled wildly — he felt frighteningly strong right now!
He even started imagining the scene of brutally beating up Uchiha Madara someday.
"Ke ke ke!"
Commander Nara Mikage's expression grew stranger and stranger.
Elite Jōnin Renya… really has nothing wrong?
No, he had to report this to the Hokage.
Taking advantage of Renya's distraction, he took out paper and brush to record the battlefield situation.
He specifically highlighted the Third Mizukage's death and Renya's bizarre behavior.
At this moment, Renya still hadn't noticed Nara Mikage's small movements. He was too busy fantasizing about beating up Uchiha Madara and inheriting the Rinnegan.
...
Hokage Office.
Shimura Danzō stared at the intel from the frontlines, eyes widening. He read it again carefully.
[—Elite Jōnin Renya suspected to have a mental disorder!!!]
"What kind of joke is this!"
He had heard from Tobirama-sensei that Renya once suffered from a mental disorder, but the teacher spent five years treating him.
That explained why Renya sometimes seemed like a different person back then.
He didn't expect the illness to relapse now!
Realizing the gravity of the issue, Danzō rushed with the intel to Senju Tobirama's laboratory.
"Tobirama-sensei, something terrible has happened!"
Tobirama frowned. For Danzō to be this frantic…
Had something unexpected happened on the battlefield?
"Danzō, what happened?"
"Tobirama-sensei, please look at this."
Danzō handed over the intel without wasting a word.
Tobirama skimmed it quickly, instantly catching the key point. His expression darkened.
"That brat's illness relapsed again?"
Didn't he personally deal with that second personality back then?
Why was this happening again?!
"That naturally evil Uchiha Madara!"
Without hesitation, Tobirama placed all the blame on the hiding Uchiha Madara.
It had to be that guy causing Renya psychological problems again.
If another personality appeared inside Renya, he would dig up the entire world if needed to find Madara and kill him!
"Danzō, continue handling village affairs. I'll go to the battlefield personally."
Tobirama tore off his lab coat and strode out of the laboratory without looking back.
He had to cure Renya's mental disorder before it worsened.
Dragging it out would only make things more troublesome.
Danzō watched his teacher leave, filled with worry. He hoped nothing would happen to Renya.
Who could have imagined Renya would have such an episode on the battlefield?
If he had known, he never would have let him go.
Nara Mikage had no idea that a simple sentence he wrote would prompt Senju Tobirama himself to rush to the battlefield.
Right now, he continued secretly watching Renya, who was still giggling foolishly.
Tsk tsk, looks like Elite Jōnin Renya's illness is serious!
...
Dozens of meters underground.
"Achoo—"
Uchiha Madara suddenly sneezed for no reason, feeling a strange sense of hostility.
His brow creased — the feeling was unpleasant.
Who was cursing him behind his back?
Senju Tobirama? Or Renya? Or maybe Hashirama?
After thinking it over, he still felt Tobirama was the most likely culprit.
If Hashirama hadn't shielded him back then, he would have sent Tobirama down to accompany Izuna long ago.
"Damn Senju Tobirama, I'll kill you sooner or later!"
