Chapter 82 Aftermath of the Battle, Target: Thunder Blade
Time: One minute ago.
"Lightning Release: Lightning Burial..."
"Raychi..."
With Raiga and Kakashi's final burst of power, the enormous ball of lightning illuminated the night like a giant searchlight...
"That's... no good, it's too late!" Ishikawa's expression changed instantly when he saw the scene on the bow of the ship a kilometer away, thanks to the flash of lightning in that instant.
Although he couldn't see clearly because he was dazed, he definitely saw people fighting at the bow of the ship.
Given the opponent's Chunin strength, the two Genin underlings wouldn't last long before he ran back.
Moreover, even if he goes back, he might not be able to turn the tide and kill two Chunin!
"Twenty seconds! I can only possess him for another twenty seconds at most before I pass out! I'll risk it all. If I don't die this time, you two brothers will each owe me ten thousand taels of silver..."
"If you die, consider it my parting gift as your elder brother!" Ishikawa swiftly formed hand seals to summon the black eagle, then formed the seals again with a fierce look in his eyes.
'Spiritualization Technique...'
The next second, as the spirit entered the black eagle's body, it once again spread its wings and, under the cover of darkness, became a blur as it swooped down on the cargo ship.
As he plummeted downwards at high speed, Ishikawa subconsciously turned his head to glance in the direction of his own body.
Under the night vision of Eagle Eye, he clearly saw a familiar figure rushing towards him at high speed, with his own body gradually sinking into the sea right in front of him.
Seeing that Ishikawa no longer had any worries, he immediately launched a full-speed air raid and massive explosion.
With a loud explosion, Ishikawa's spirit returned to his body and immediately fainted without waking up...
"Kakashi-sensei, is my older brother alright?" Taro rushed forward and asked with concern as he looked at Ishikawa, who was unconscious and covered in blood on his back.
Although Jiro was also covered in wounds, he still endured the pain and grimaced as he took out medicine and bandages to bandage Ishikawa.
"He's alright. Get ready, I'll stitch up his wound and stop the bleeding." Kakashi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, the worry on his face quietly disappearing...
Thankfully, everyone was only injured and no one died!
Although he was exhausted, he couldn't ignore Ishikawa's injuries.
"Mr. Choji, please speed up and get out of this area as soon as possible. If we encounter pirates again in our current situation, it could be dangerous!" Kakashi said, turning to give instructions while washing and disinfecting his hands.
"Yes, yes, I'll go and urge the crew right away." The client, Changji, dared not delay and immediately turned and ran towards the bridge.
The battle just now had given him quite a fright. If it weren't for Kakashi and the others escorting him, he would definitely be dead tonight!
No, I have to give my savior extra rewards when we get back. An A-level reward is a bit much, hmm, then I'll add a B-level reward...
With the cargo ship accelerating and Kakashi providing emergency treatment, time quickly passed, and it was noon the next day.
"Hmm..." In a daze, Ishikawa frowned, patted his head, and slowly opened his eyes.
As his vision gradually cleared, Ishikawa saw Jiro's worried face.
"Big brother, you're finally awake!"
"What, did I sleep for a long time? Ouch..." Ishikawa asked, about to get up, when he felt a sharp pain in his back and immediately grimaced.
Damn it, I almost forgot I got attacked from behind!
"Brother, don't move if you're injured. Just tell me what you need." Jiro hurriedly stepped forward and gently supported Ishikawa, completely disregarding the fact that he himself was also wrapped in bandages.
This caring scene warmed Ishikawa's heart! It seemed his younger brother hadn't saved him in vain; at least he cared about him.
"Alright, how are the teacher and Taro? Is everyone alright?" Ishikawa asked again as he lay down again.
He was unconscious after the explosion, so we really don't know what happened afterward!
It's unclear whether the two Chunin were killed in the explosion, but since Jiro isn't showing any signs of grief while lying here, he should be fine.
"The teacher is unconscious, and Taro is taking care of her. Big brother, last night you..."
Seeing that Ishikawa wanted to know the situation, Jiro immediately explained everything in detail.
As Ishikawa had predicted, no one in the seventh crew was killed, and the cargo ship was unharmed.
Although Tarojiro sustained numerous injuries, they were all superficial and not serious. Ironically, Ishikawa was the most severely injured, while Kakashi was completely drained of his eye power and chakra, rendering him unconscious.
Without the slug's help to recover, Ishikawa estimates that Kakashi will need to stay in bed for at least a week before waking up.
"Alright, go get me something to eat to replenish my energy. Then you don't need to worry about me, I can rest on my own. Don't forget you're injured too." Ishikawa waved his hand dismissively, but his gaze inadvertently swept over the ninja tool pouch beside him.
Inside, there is also a scroll that seals Ranmaru's head.
Although the sealing scroll can prevent the head from decaying, it is uncertain whether the eyes can maintain their normal transplant function.
Therefore, he had to send Jiro away to use his unskilled palm technique to keep his eyes active.
Well, Ishikawa's Palm Healing Technique cannot heal injuries at present, but it can be used to slow down decay.
Well, this is a last resort! He didn't prepare any nutrient solution bottles, so this is the only thing he can do now.
"Yes, brother." Jiro, unaware of Ishikawa's thoughts, tearfully agreed and turned to leave.
His older brother is truly a brother; even in this state, he's still concerned about his injuries. No, he must take even better care of his older brother!
"crunch..."
As the door closed, Ishikawa gritted his teeth and forced himself to sit up, opened the scroll, and, without any hesitation, began to perform his clumsy Palm Technique on Ranmaru's head.
After nurturing it for ten minutes, Ishikawa sealed it away again and then lay on the bed thinking about transplanting the red eye.
A transplant is certain, and the only person who can perform the surgery is his time-traveling roommate, Nohara Rin.
This is both for the sake of confidentiality and to avoid trouble should the transplant fail.
As Lei Jun once said: "Do things quietly. If you succeed, great; if you fail, just pretend you never did it."
So now the question is, how exactly should I tell Rin Nohara about this...?
"Big brother, dinner's ready." After some time, just as Ishikawa was lost in thought, Jiro's voice rang out from outside the door.
Seeing the lavish meal Jiro brought in, Ishikawa, who was already starving, immediately stopped thinking and became a complete glutton...
Time passed day by day as Ishikawa recuperated and secretly nurtured his red eyes.
On the third day, they re-landed in the Land of Fire and formed a long convoy to begin their return to Konoha.
The client originally didn't want to leave so hastily because Kakashi was unconscious, but Ishikawa insisted on keeping the red eyes active to the maximum extent, which forced the client to agree.
To this end, the client, Nagayoshi, arranged for a luxurious carriage to house Kakashi, with Ishikawa and two others acting as his guards.
After a peaceful journey until the seventh day, Kakashi finally awoke...
"Teacher, can I have that Raiga sword?" After confirming that Kakashi was alright, Ishikawa pointed at the Raiga twin swords in the carriage with burning eyes.
