Chapter 280 The Disappearing Corpse
Although he defeated Yagura and the Third Mizukage in succession, Kaito still did not dare to relax too much.
He is still maintaining the 'Flame White Mode'.
In case a strange guy like Uchiha Madara or Uchiha Obito suddenly pops up.
However, the first thing that popped up was the prompt sound of the system achievement.
[Ding! You have defeated a Kage for the first time and have unlocked the achievement "Little devil, now you are qualified to take a look at the Hashirama on my chest!"]
???
'What the hell!'
The sudden pop-up achievement reminder made Kaito's emotions a little inconsistent.
As a large number of achievements have been triggered, it has become increasingly difficult to explore new achievements. It has been a long time since Kaito experienced the system prompt sound that suddenly popped up when he was highly nervous.
For a moment, he was slightly dazed.
'God damn it, look at Hashirama?!'
Kaito is now really afraid that Madara will pop up in real life and say something like this.
'But the previous Fourth generation Ai and Yagura did not trigger it. Is it because their strength is not recognized by the system? Or is it that only positions can trigger it?"
Kaito's thoughts strayed slightly. After all, if he only looked at the positions, then wouldn't he be unable to receive achievement rewards for opponents like the 'Super Kage Level' and 'Six Paths Level' in the future?
Of course, this thought only flashed through Kaito's mind. The most important thing is the current situation.
However, at this time, Ao, Kisame and others had already dealt with the Anbu brought by Yagura.
After all, they had the advantage in numbers, and Ao and others didn't suffer any casualties.
Everyone quickly gathered towards Kaito, and many of them had an unconcealable gleam of admiration in their eyes.
"Kaito, are you okay?"
After all, he was fighting against the top two masters in the village alone, and he had suffered such a serious injury before. After Ao came over, he still cared about Kaito's physical condition first.
Kaito shook his head slightly, still looking around vigilantly, but did not forget to remind.
"Ao-sensei, first confirm whether the illusion on Third Mizukage-sama has been lifted. The rest of you should be alert to possible enemies around you."
"Yes!" xN
Everyone present, including Ao, accepted Kaito's order without any hesitation.
Watching Ao open his Byakugan and look at the Third Mizukage, he gave a clear answer.
"The illusion has been lifted."
Kaito finally felt relieved and raised his hand to cancel the two states of 'Flame White Mode' and 'Acupressure Amplification'.
The pure white flames around his body slowly dissipated, and immediately a feeling of powerlessness spread throughout his body.
Kaito's body swayed slightly and he staggered two steps, but he still stood up straight and did not fall to the ground too embarrassingly.
Ao on the side quickly reached out and held Kaito's arm.
"Are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm just a little weak, it's not serious."
Although the remaining 'Ice Flame Clone' was dissolved and some of the chakra was returned, it was still unable to resist Kaito's physical weakness.
However, Kaito still forced himself to cheer up, took a few military ration pills, and bent down to treat the Third Mizukage.
There was no way. Although Kaito had held back just now, the injuries on the Third Mizukage were not light.
And after all, his age is there. If he doesn't receive timely treatment, he may die.
However, also because of his age, the most effective "Wind of Revival" cannot be used on the Third Mizukage.
After a simple treatment with the Mystical Palm Technique, even though his wounds had healed, the Third Mizukage was still in a coma.
Of course, Kaito was not only concerned about the Third Mizukage.
After stabilizing his injuries, he cooperated with Blue to perform the "Multiple Aqua Rings" to treat the wounds of the few injured ninjas on the scene.
"Ao-sensei, the Third Mizukage-sama will not wake up for a while, so let's take him and the body of Yagura back to the village first."
"We still don't know what's going on with Elder Genji."
Kaito was still somewhat worried about Elder Genji's current condition.
Although compared to the Elder Genji, the Third Mizukage who wanted him to inherit the position of the Fourth Mizukage seemed to value him more.
However, Elder Genji had given him a lot of help since a long time ago, before Kaito rose to prominence.
And to put it bluntly, in non-combat periods, the importance of the Elder Genji to the Kirigakure Village may be even greater than that of the Third Mizukage.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Ao naturally had no objection to this.
The group killed the rebellious Yagura who was Jonin Commander, injured the village Kage, and resolved the crisis in the village. No matter what, they had to return to the village to report.
Without saying a word, Ao carried the Third Mizukage, who had just received treatment, on his back.
Kisame, who had remained silent all the time, reached out his hand and put Kaito behind his back as if he was picking up a chicken.
"Hey hey hey! Kisame, put me down! I can walk by myself!"
"Doctor Kaito, stop messing around. We need to hurry up."
Unlike before on the sea, at that time Kaito built an ice boat and could sit on it to recover his strength.
But in this situation, it is not a problem for Kaito to move around.
Even if he release a "white mist", he may be able to recover 70% to 80% of his physical strength after resting for a while.
But it is indeed not suitable for physical exercise such as fast travel.
Just when Kaito had accepted his fate and stopped moving, the voice of Harusame was heard from a distance.
"Kaito, do you remember where the body of Yagura is?"
Upon hearing this, Kaito turned around and pointed casually at the open space covered with frost when he fought with Yagura before.
However, Kaito, who turned around, suddenly had his pupils shrink and his mind was shaking wildly.
'Where is the body? ! ! ! '
Before, at the last moment of the battle between Kaito and Yagura, he had clearly seen the opponent's body freeze into ice with his own eyes.
Under an explosion of that magnitude, even every cell in the body would be frozen, and no one could survive.
But now, there was only a pile of broken ice left on the ground.
"Be alert!"
Kaito didn't care about his physical weakness at this time. While loudly reminding everyone, he turned over and jumped down from behind Kisame and ran towards the location of the ice sculpture of Yagura.
The others were originally preparing to clean up the battlefield and leave, but now they immediately took out their weapons and became cautious and alert.
Kaito, who staggered to the location, immediately squatted down to check the broken ice on the ground.
"No, this is obviously not just the amount of the outer ice shell that has shattered! This is the volume that a whole person can have!"
This also fits the symptoms of the White Style flame erupting from the body.
But it stands to reason that after all, 'Sode Shirayuki' is not 'Absolute Zero'. Even if the enemies hit by 'Absolute Zero' were shattered, the color of the ice should be visible.
However, Kaito did not notice the tiny white spores in the broken ice on the ground.
This led to Kaito being unable to confirm whether Yagura was dead or his body was stolen.
Everyone later discovered that even the body of the White Zetsu named Iwara Ashito had disappeared.
Kaito punched the ground in annoyance.
"What a hassle!"
