The facts proved that Kumogakure's ninja were indeed somewhat stronger physically than ninja from other villages.

Of course, they could not compare to Tsunade, a ninja of the Senju Clan. The gap was simply too great. After undergoing Perfect Restoration, Tsunade was a formidable woman who could recover in the shortest possible time no matter what kind of brutal torture she endured.

However, only her physical condition could recover at the time; her mental state could not. Kurotsuchi and Temari were basically just there to make up the numbers. Having only just come of age, neither of them had any real combat ability, and they were defeated within half an hour.

"Haah~~"

After the battle ended, Uchiha Shūichi lay against the headboard, only lacking a cigarette between his fingers.

Shizune, who had watched the entire time without truly joining the fight, was now breathing heavily as she cleaned up the battlefield. She dressed the defeated ninja one by one and treated the wounds on their bodies.

Now that all the female ninja had been taken care of, Shizune lowered her head and began tidying Uchiha Shūichi's disheveled clothes.

As Uchiha Shūichi gently stroked Shizune's hair, he turned to Tsunade, who was leaning against the cushions and had finally recovered her senses, and asked, "Have Orochimaru and the Second Hokage developed that jutsu yet? Also, exactly how many corpses did Konoha lose?"

Uchiha Shūichi had recognized the terrifying nature of the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu long ago. That was why he had ordered Orochimaru to research a ninjutsu specifically meant to counter Impure World Reincarnation.

However, Orochimaru was usually occupied with more important experiments and had little time for the research. It was not until the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, was also revived that the research finally made some real progress.
