"I'm alright."
Nanchuan You spoke softly, "Getting injured at this time isn't necessarily a bad thing."
"Yeah, at least I don't have to go to the battlefield anymore."
Kakashi gazed into the distance, his eyes unfocused, lost in thought.
"The war is probably ending soon, isn't it?"
Nanchuan You pondered for a moment before speaking, "I heard Kumogakure is already preparing to retreat."

Many major events had also occurred during this recent period.
On the battlefield against the Land of Lightning, Namikaze Minato displayed immense power, fighting alone against the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki and the Third Raikage's son, eventually forcing them to retreat.
After this battle, Namikaze Minato's fame soared, and the moniker "Yellow Flash" echoed everywhere, solidifying his foundation for running for Fourth Hokage in the future.
Seeing that they couldn't gain an advantage, Kumogakure shifted its focus, ultimately choosing to temporarily reach an agreement with Konoha and join the war against Iwagakure.
Of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, Sand Village was in retreat, and Kumogakure had shifted its allegiance. The pressure currently facing Konoha had significantly decreased.
Anyone with discerning eyes could see that the current Shinobi World War was drawing to a close and, barring any unforeseen circumstances, would end soon.
But it was a pity that even if the war ended, those who had already passed away would not return.
Thinking of this, Kakashi fell silent.
As they were in silence, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside.
Nanchuan You and Kakashi turned simultaneously, looking in the direction of the approaching footsteps.
A girl was walking towards them, holding a bouquet of flowers.
It was Kurenai Yuhi, walking towards Nanchuan You's room.
"You, you can move on your own already?"
Kurenai Yuhi looked at Nanchuan You before her, her face showing a look of joy.
"Ah, it still hurts, but I can manage to move around freely."
Nanchuan You smiled, "Why are you here, Miss Kurenai?"
"Since you're back for a visit, shouldn't you be resting properly?"
"My mission is over."
Kurenai Yuhi smiled, "I'm free to act as I please for the time being."
Without the constraints of missions, she appeared much more relaxed.
"What about Kaede?"
Nanchuan You asked.
Among the three who had acted together before, Hyuga Fu's condition was actually the most severe.
After all, he had truly been on the verge of having his heart pierced.
Fortunately, Nanchuan You's treatment had been timely, and he had managed to save his life.
"Kaede has woken up."
Kurenai Yuhi said, "Before I came, he wanted to come and thank you."
"If it weren't for you this time, he would have been in grave danger."
"It's nothing."
Nanchuan You smiled, "We're a team, and helping each other is only natural."
"I believe that if I were ever injured, you would all rush to save me without hesitation."
Listening to Nanchuan You's words, Kurenai Yuhi was first stunned, then nodded, "Of course."
"We are comrades."
"Comrades?"
Listening to Nanchuan You and Kurenai Yuhi, Kakashi sighed softly from the side.
He too had comrades with whom he could entrust his life.
Unfortunately, with the outbreak of war, those people were eventually buried on the battlefield.
"Obito, Rin..."
Recalling the appearance of his former comrades, his eyes became distant, as if lost in memories of the past.
"I... am still alive."
Inside the Iwagakure camp, Shanming Changjin sat in his room, his eyes somewhat vacant.
After parting ways with Nanchuan You that day, he had made his way back to the Iwagakure camp.
As for how to avoid his comrades' suspicion, he chose to adopt a similar method to Nanchuan You.
Self-harm.
As a Jonin, he was very experienced in this regard and easily fooled his comrades.
The others didn't suspect him too much either.
After all, he was a ninja trained within Iwagakure, and a Jonin at that, holding a high position.
The methods used by spies wouldn't easily be suspected of being used on him.
But even so, Shanming Changjin was still afraid, terrified of being discovered by others.
However, the method Nanchuan You had placed on him was clearly different from ordinary means.
Even now, he had been in the camp for a long time, and no one had noticed anything unusual.
This relieved Shanming Changjin.
However, changes were also present.
For example, physical changes.
"My Chakra has increased, and my body's healing ability has also strengthened..."
On the bedside, he raised his head, looking at his arm, his eyes lost in thought. "What exactly is this power...?"
To him, the power of Karma was still too extraordinary. Even slight physical changes made him marvel.
After all, things that could increase Chakra were rare under normal circumstances, and should be very precious. Yet now, it was being used on him.
Shanming Changjin knew that the other party must have made arrangements. If he dared to betray them, he would be instantly retaliated against.
But he no longer cared about these things at the moment.
"Whether I'm a ninja of Iwagakure or a spy, I will continue to live..."
He took a deep breath, various thoughts flashing through his mind at this moment.
At this time, a noise came from outside.
Someone had brought the latest orders, telling them to go to another battlefield to engage Kumogakure.
Shanming Changjin took a deep breath, then got up and left the place.
Meanwhile, after some time, Nanchuan You's body gradually recovered.
His injuries were too severe. To fully heal, even with the aid of Medical Ninjutsu, would take a considerable amount of time.
But to simply regain mobility wasn't that troublesome.
After a few days of simple rest, Nanchuan You quickly returned to work.
Murakami Se and the others urged him to rest for a while longer, but Nanchuan You didn't care, insisting on returning to work.
Murakami Se and the others could only sigh at Nanchuan You's perseverance.
But in reality, Nanchuan You just wanted to collect more Chakra.
At this stage, there weren't many places where he could reasonably obtain Chakra reserves. Since he had the opportunity now, he naturally wouldn't let it pass.
Besides healing the injured, he didn't neglect Kakashi and Kurenai Yuhi either, visiting them often to deepen their relationship and refresh his points.
Since there wasn't much stimulation, the number of points gained wasn't large, but it was still good compared to normal times.
One day, as usual, he walked into Kakashi's residence, preparing to deliver medicine.
A new figure appeared before him.
"You are You?"
As Nanchuan You walked into the room, the person before him looked up.
It was a young man with blond hair, a smile on his face, giving off a warm and sunny impression, possessing a strong sense of affinity.
