All the Amegakure ninjas began to move.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood. This was the blood of Sunagakure ninjas and their comrades.
They searched for their comrades among the scattered corpses.
"Haruki, he's already dead." Takinawa walked over to Haruki.
At this moment, Haruki was kneeling before a cold Amegakure ninja corpse.
The light of the setting sun grew dimmer and dimmer. He stared blankly at the corpse before him.
"I came too late..."
Haruki's voice reached Takinawa's ears.
"If only I had come faster..."
"He wouldn't have had to die..."
Listening to Haruki's words, Takinawa lowered his head, hot tears rolling in his reddened eyes.
How could Haruki be blamed? He had already helped them too much.
Where there is war, there are casualties. This was unavoidable. But Haruki was still too young, it was normal for him not to accept it. The parting of death was too heavy for him.
As time passes, he will gradually accept his fate as a ninja.

Haruki's act wasn't over yet, he suddenly stood up from the ground. "I can't stop. Someone must still be waiting for me."
He staggered towards the piled corpses.
Watching his thin back, tears streamed down Takinawa's face.
"Hold on!"
Haruki dug out an Amegakure ninja who still had a little bit of life left from beneath the corpses of two Sunagakure ninjas. This person's life was truly tough, he hadn't died even like this.
Since he wasn't dead, he might as well contribute some emotional value. Haruki didn't just take, he at least saved his life.
Give and take.
"Don't... don't waste... Chakra... Save... save others..."
The ninja, whose chest had a gaping bloody hole, spoke with trembling, lifeless eyes.
Haruki hadn't expected such resolve from a ninja so young.
"No!"
"I won't abandon anyone!"
"I want all of you to live!"
Haruki pressed his hands against the ninja's wound. His tears dripped onto the ninja's face and his voice echoed across the silent battlefield.

Haruki's sorrow was as heavy as a mountain, weighing down on every Amegakure ninja.
"Hold on!"
One by one, the fallen Amegakure ninjas were dug out and brought before Haruki.
Haruki looked at the young Amegakure ninja whose half-body was soaked in blood, his eyes reddened. "I will definitely save you."
The Amegakure ninja's voice was as faint as a sigh. He flashed a faint smile towards Haruki, and his vision gradually became enveloped in darkness.
"Don't sleep!"
"Believe me!"
Haruki's voice echoed in the ears of every Amegakure ninja. They could do nothing but watch Haruki.
The last ray of the setting sun vanished below the horizon.
Haruki's figure moved back and forth among the corpses. He bent down again and again, disregarding his own limits to provide treatment. He desperately wanted to save every person's life.

Haruki was human, not a god. Some Amegakure ninjas had already stopped breathing, and no matter how hard he tried, it was futile.
"Haruki, you've already saved many people." Takinawa stepped forward, placing a hand on Haruki's shoulder.
Haruki had saved the lives of every ninja who could be rescued.
The battlefield fell into a deadly silence, all the surviving Amegakure ninjas stood still, silently mourning their fallen comrades.
A deep blue night sky enveloped them, with brilliant stars dotting the night sky. Tomorrow would be another sunny day.
Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!
Wind Release: Vacuum Great Sphere!
Scorch Release: Extremely Steaming Murder!
"..."
The brilliant lights bursting from various ninjutsu illuminated half of the night sky.
Uniform roars, like thunder from a clear sky, instantly shattered the tranquility of the battlefield.
Killing intent, like a fierce wind, swept over all the Amegakure ninjas.
The sudden attack made the Amegakure ninjas, who were immersed in grief, widen their eyes.
Dozens of violent tornado pillars, rolling with scorching red light, appeared like a tsunami, overwhelming everything and instantly filling the entire battlefield.
The figures of the Amegakure ninjas were immediately swallowed by the red light.
Boom—
The sound of an explosion rang in Haruki's ears. Not only that, violent Wind Release Ninjutsu also exploded among the Amegakure ninjas.
High-speed rotating wind blades swept up the unsuspecting Amegakure ninjas, instantly grinding them into a sky full of blood mist. Not even a corpse was left for Haruki.
Compressed wind spheres, like cannonballs, exploded into huge craters among the crowd, and the shockwaves sent the surrounding Amegakure ninjas flying along with mud and blood.
This sudden sneak attack instantly stunned the Amegakure ninja forces, who had originally thought they had achieved victory.
How could the ninjas of Sunagakure appear here?
When did they appear?
And how did they avoid their perception?
The dense attacks had not yet ended, one, two, ten...
Countless orange-red orbs of terrifying high temperature, like miniature suns, shot out. Wherever the orbs passed, the air was instantly violently distorted by the extreme high temperature. The orbs accurately landed among the Amegakure ninjas. Hair-raising screams rose and fell.
Haruki's expression was grim as he watched the Amegakure ninjas beside him, struck by the orange-red orbs. They didn't even have time to scream, their bodies, like wax figures thrown into a furnace, turned into charred, twisted mummies in less than a minute.
Among the Sunagakure ninjas, Haruki could only think of one ninja with such abilities, Scorch Release ninja, Pakura.
