Kakuzu and Nan Xue stared at the fragments in the swaddling blanket, lost in thought...
Nan Xue's head was already spinning, and she passed out...
"It's okay, Mother, it's okay! Hidan is still alive!" Seeing this, Konan hurriedly tossed the bundle away and caught her mother.
Looking at the baby pieces scattered across the floor, Kakuzu's mouth twitched... He could pretty much guess why Hidan had ended up like this...
Hearing Hidan wailing on the floor, Nan Xue came around a little.

"What?? Why go to a hospital? Those crooks charge a fortune! I can do it myself!" Kakuzu immediately objected. A thread slowly emerged from his finger, and he stitched Hidan back together.
"As long as Hidan is okay." Looking at Hidan, whole and unharmed, Nan Xue finally breathed a sigh of relief...
Konan, meanwhile, watched the restored Hidan, her eyes gradually lighting up...

"Even the me sitting here is a Shadow Clone. My real body is in the hospital," Danzo said flatly.
"Sorry, I've got to check on the kid. Ever since Uncle Madara beat you up, he's taken my grandson away. Said he'd educate him personally
