"Mirai's mission has been completed. We no longer need to go there." The Ninja Hound stopped and looked at Yugao Uzuki.
"Oh?" Yanxi nodded and asked inwardly, That child... shouldn't he be dead?
"No, they'll be here soon." As soon as the Ninja Hound finished speaking, several figures rushed over.
Yanxi's nerves tensed. Just as he was about to flee, the Ninja Hound said, "They're here."
"Oh? Where are Senior Kakashi and the others?" After waiting for the figures to approach, Yugao Uzuki realized that they were Kakashi and the others.
"In this situation, I'll retire first." The Ninja Hound spoke to Kakashi, then turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared.
"Hm? This child's wounds?" Seeing Mirai's shoulder wrapped in bandages, Yanxi could not help looking at Mirai's abdomen again. He said in astonishment, "How is that possible?"
"What?" Kakashi had already covered his Sharingan with his forehead protector. Seeing the ANBU ninja so shocked, he could not help asking.
"This child's wounds..." Yugao Uzuki hesitantly pointed at Mirai's shoulder.
"The wound was caused by Kakashi's Raikiri." Asuma explained from the side, though he too did not understand the ANBU's reaction.
"Before you arrived, I fought this child," Yanxi said.
"Hm? What?" Kakashi and Asuma looked at each other, surprised by the ANBU's answer. Even Kurenai Yuhi raised her head.
"Moreover, with my swordsmanship, I caught him in an opening and stabbed my blade into his abdomen from behind. There can be no mistake!" Yanxi was absolutely certain.
"No?!" Kakashi's pupils gradually widened. He hurried over to Kurenai Yuhi, lifted Mirai's shirt as he lay on her back, and exposed his smooth back.
"How is that possible?!" Yanxi shouted again and again.
"If what you said is true, then... is this not Mirai?" Kakashi frowned. He believed that possibility.
