Chapter 517 - Chapter 516 Rest

Ryun left, followed closely by Tsunade. Itachi, regardless of the injuries within his body, also chased after them.

The people present were somewhat stunned, not knowing what to do next. At this moment, Orochimaru spoke, "You saw nothing today, you know nothing. If I find out today's news has been leaked."

"Rest assured, if the Hokage-sama cannot bring himself to do it, I can." Orochimaru's sinister voice rang in everyone's ears. He then touched Hidan's head and, as if obtaining a treasure, stored him into his sealing scroll.

Then, he coldly swept his gaze over everyone. The Anbu ninja would naturally not spread it, including the people from the Police Force. These were all core forces around Ryun.

The worry was some villagers or ordinary ninja gossiping! Hatake Sakumo came down from the rooftop, 'Anbu personnel, did you hear Orochimaru-sama's words?'

"Heard!" The Anbu ninja answered without the slightest hesitation, which made Hatake Sakumo nod. He then had the Anbu Vice-Captain take the people back, while he headed to the Hokage's villa.

Hyūga Hizashi looked at the Police Force personnel behind him, "Most of the people I brought are ninja from the Hyūga branch family and the Uchiha clan. Do not forget who brought you today's freedom, today's glory!"

"In reply, sir, the current freedom, the current glory, we dare not forget for the rest of our lives!" The Police Force personnel on duty today all knelt. Hyūga Hizashi nodded and led all the ninja towards the Police Force headquarters.

Orochimaru smiled, watching all this. He clapped his hands, and immediately, Yamanaka Kumokai, Yamanaka Inoichi, Yamanaka Fū, these members of the Yamanaka clan appeared. Then Orochimaru snapped his fingers, and the Four-Crimson Ray Barrier activated.

All the civilians and ordinary ninja present were trapped!

Orochimaru just smiled, "Everyone, don't panic. Just think of what comes next as a head massage!" After saying this, he looked at the Yamanaka clan members.

The Yamanaka clan members nodded and then sprang into action. They walked up to these people, placed five fingers on their heads, then closed their eyes, found the events from this morning, and erased the memories, leaving not a single trace.

In less than an hour, the memories of all the ninja and civilians present were completely deleted. Then Yamanaka Kumokai, one by one, erased this segment of memory from his own clan's ninja.

Then he looked at Orochimaru. Orochimaru cupped his hands, "Clan Head Kumokai, you've worked hard!"

Yamanaka Kumokai waved his hand, "It's what should be done. The Uchiha and Yamanaka clans are allies after all. Moreover, the ability to revive the dead is indeed of great significance. If one is not careful, it could lead to disaster!"

Orochimaru nodded. He appreciated intelligent people. After exchanging contact information with Yamanaka Kumokai, he hurried back to the laboratory. If he could understand Hidan's immortality, perhaps he could advance Konoha's medical field by a huge step again!

At that time, even immortality would not be a dream!

Yamanaka Kumokai sat in place and fired a signal flare. Immediately, Akimichi clan ninja arrived at the scene. Leading them was Akimichi Torifu. He glanced at Yamanaka Kumokai, "Everything resolved?"

Yamanaka Kumokai nodded, "Yes, resolved! We'll leave it to you to send these people home!"

"No problem!" Akimichi Torifu smiled and then began having people verify identities to send them home.

Truly worthy of being Ryun's allies, taking the initiative at such a time to resolve all troubles. Yamanaka Kumokai even erased the memories of the ninja who participated in this operation. Thorough and meticulous, reassuring.

Although Akimichi Torifu didn't know what had happened, he just needed to follow instructions. Would Yamanaka Kumokai, their generation's Ino-Shika-Chō, possibly trick him?

Orochimaru reported all this via text message to Ryun. After reading the text, Ryun's lips curled upward. He murmured, "As expected of someone who lives all the way into the Boruto era, meticulous and reassuring."

Then, Ryun placed Ju on the bed and looked at Tsunade and Itachi. He said, "Wife, and little Itachi, you must ensure that during this time I'm transferring chakra, no one disturbs me. And do not make any loud noises."

Hearing this, Tsunade nodded. Itachi directly walked outside the villa, used a Body Flicker Technique to leap onto the villa roof, activated his Mangekyō Sharingan, and began surveillance.

Tsunade sat on the sofa, her heart filled with worry as she looked towards the bedroom. She knew how weak Ju's body was at this moment and also knew that Ryun's treatment this time would also consume a great deal.

Ryun looked at his daughter and sighed. Then the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan in his left eye activated again. Green light continuously enveloped Ju.

Unlike Itachi, Ju's injuries had already damaged her foundation. He would need to expend more chakra and time. Repairing the physical damage, Ryun used Samsara for a full hour. He wiped his sweat and breathed a sigh of relief. It went smoothly.

If not for the Sage Body and tailed beast chakra supplement, it would have been very difficult for him to keep using Samsara. After resting for ten minutes, Ryun began converting chakra.

He converted the chakra within his body into Yin attribute chakra. Then, with both hands gathering Yin attribute chakra, he pointed at Ju's eyes. The Yin attribute chakra flowed from Ryun's hands into Ju's depleted Mangekyō Sharingan.

This could not only compensate for Ju's loss but also nourish her Mangekyō Sharingan. After the loss was compensated, the excess Yin attribute chakra would transform into ocular power. Only after the ocular power recovered would Ju be fully healed.

This process was even longer than repairing the body. It wasn't until this time the next day that Ryun stopped. Then, pale-faced, he said, "Done. Wife, I want water." At this moment, he only felt his lips were dry and cracked, his spirit listless.

Hearing this, Tsunade immediately took out a bottle of water from the fridge and also held a bag of steamed buns, which contained a full eight.

Ryun looked at her with dull eyes, then drank without caring about his appearance, followed by eating the buns, two bites each, not even looking.

Only after finishing the water and buns did his pupils regain a bit of focus. He got up to go rest, but his legs trembled and he almost fell. His legs were numb!

Itachi at this moment supported Ryun, his eyes flashing with deep gratitude. Ryun pushed him away, gritted his teeth. Even if his legs were numb to death. Even if it was unbearable, he wouldn't let this brat support him!

"You go keep an eye on Roro. I think the person she most wants to see when she wakes up should be you. As for me..." Ryun gritted his teeth, "I can manage. Let go!"

The next moment, Itachi actually let go. Ryun's numb leg stepped on the ground, immediately feeling the sour numbness. He forcibly endured not making a sound, straightened his back, and walked towards the door.

Tsunade couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. She looked at Itachi, "Little Itachi, you stay here and watch over Roro. I'll go check on my husband. He's just concerned about face, won't say a word even if his legs are numb." Tsunade shook her head and walked in the direction Ryun left.

Itachi nodded. He couldn't smile now. The woman he loved was still lying on the bed. According to what Ryun and Tsunade said, the consumption was huge, damaging her foundation. He had no mood to laugh at all.

After Tsunade left, he found a stool, sat by Ju's bedside, placed her small hand in his own, and looked at her with heartache in his eyes.

"Tell me, aren't you foolish. It was originally to save you, wanting you to live, just to live. Tell me, why did you have to seek revenge for me? Seeking revenge is fine, but you didn't need to consume your body like this."

"I told you before, activating the Mangekyō at too young an age hurts the body. It's irreversible. If not for your father's special ocular jutsu and profound chakra, you might have gone blind, do you know that." As he spoke, Itachi's eyes turned red. He looked at Ju before him.

A teardrop fell. He held Ju's small hand, his emotions very complex. There was gratitude, regret, and loss.

Gratitude that Ju would seek revenge against Hidan for him regardless of cost. Regret that he had been careless. If he hadn't dismissed the Susano'o so early, hadn't been so arrogant, he wouldn't have died, causing Ju such a shock.

Loss that after Ju collapsed, he was powerless to save her, could only place hope in Ryun, hoping he could completely heal Ju.

Living room. Ryun moved with difficulty towards the sofa. His daughter wasn't awake yet, and he wasn't in the mood to sleep in bed. At this moment, he felt his body become light, his perspective rotate.

Then his two eyes looked at the ceiling. Two soft mounds blocked his vision. He couldn't help but be stunned. This familiar visual impact, this familiar scent. His expression relaxed, "Wife, it's you."

"Who else would it be?" Tsunade said somewhat annoyed. She saw Ryun's current worry, wanting to sleep a bit on the sofa. So she picked up her husband, planning to place him on the sofa.

After placing him, Tsunade hurried upstairs, then hurried back down. She placed a pillow under Ryun's head, then covered him with a blanket.

Ryun, watching his wife's actions, a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes. Having such a wife, what more could one ask for?

"Sleep. I'll keep an eye on our daughter over there. If she wakes, I'll tell you immediately." Tsunade pinched Ryun's cheek. Ryun relaxed, nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, wife."

After saying this, Ryun closed his eyes and instantly fell into deep sleep. This healing consumed a vast amount of his chakra and ocular power. Although his recovery ability was astonishing, the physical and mental exhaustion made him desperately need rest right now.
