The battle against the several Otsutsuki had caused Konoha considerable losses.
Even though Naruto had received intelligence from Toneri and made preparations well in advance, he still could not prevent the village from being caught up in it.
Just like the later battle with those "Gundams," it was simply beyond their control.
If Soji had not used a Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion to send Momoshiki's ultimate move, Crimson Spiral, into the sky, Konoha would probably have been wiped out by their battle.
Simply put, when people at their level fought with all their strength, no amount of advance preparations could cover everything.
For example, if Sasuke activated the Complete Body Susanoo, no one in all of Konoha could stop him unless Naruto personally stepped in.
With one slash, all of Konoha's defenses would collapse!
The fact that their battle had only affected one corner of Konoha was already the greatest comfort.
Although the losses were substantial, they remained within what Konoha could accept.
Once the other Four Kage had recovered, they were all thankful that the battlefield had not been in their villages.
Otherwise, their villages might not have been as fortunate as Konoha.
Of course, Soji did not need to worry too much about the postwar reconstruction of the damaged areas.
Although he was also from Konoha, this "Konoha" was not that "Konoha"!
If it had been in Soji's own time-space, as a high-ranking village official like the Minister of Education, he would definitely have been dragged into all sorts of meetings for days on end.
Then, after returning to the Hyuga Clan, the status of Third Elder of the Main House's Third Branch, together with his position as the Hyuga Clan's Punishment Elder, would have forced Soji to attend all kinds of clan meetings as well!
That was
