"Hiss..."
Kakashi let out a muffled groan. He was still injured, and being suddenly hugged hurt like hell.
Rin Nohara hurriedly released Kakashi. "Kakashi, are you okay? I'm sorry, I..."
But Kakashi gently wrapped his arms around Rin. "Welcome back, Rin."
Rin had already been revived, with all the normal reactions she should have had.
Back then, Kakashi had already charmed her senseless when he was only a teenager. Now that he was thirty-one, it was even worse.
No mask, a mature and handsome face, and that fragile look from being covered in bandages.
Such close contact left Rin unbearably shy, her entire face turning red.
She lowered her head awkwardly, feeling a little dizzy. "Hmm..."

He had not released the "Snake" hand seal. The Reanimation Jutsu was still ongoing.

Natsuki's massively increased Chakra and ocular power had been steadily declining.
Natsuki's eyes had originally reached the Third Stage, but with Otsutsuki Kaguya's energy involved, they had now become Rinnegan.
Natsuki was currently using ocular power to bring his own ocular power down.
Otsutsuki Kaguya spoke within Natsuki's mind:
"What use is there in reviving these people? Their Chakra will eventually return to me."
In truth, Kaguya dearly hoped Natsuki would revive even more people. The more ocular power and energy he consumed—
—the faster Kaguya would erode him.
