บท 220: Chapter 220
"Lord Carnes, is this the time for such jests? That young girl is on the brink of perishing at your hands... in the clutches of the Deva Path!"
They questioned him.
Carnes glanced at them, amusement fading.
As he regarded them with a certain indifference.
No longer interested in revelry.
"Are you all concerned about the safety of Hinata and Naruto? Let me assure you, they will be fine.
"But...…"
The Konoha Shinobi exchanged puzzled glances.
It wasn't that they doubted Carnes' judgment; rather, the situation in the arena appeared far from positive.
The real issue lies in the current grim state of affairs in the arena—quiet, um, less than optimistic!
They engaged their brain fully trying to come up with a scenario where Naruto would overpower Pain.
Some struggled to pinpoint the turning point in this fight for Naruto.
As for Hinata's ability to repel Pain, that was entirely beyond their contemplation; it seemed like wishful thinking, a fantastical notion beyond their grasp.
"Hinata may meet her end here."
"But Naruto won't be defeated."
Carnes dismissed the conclusion casually.
Upon hearing this, Tsunade and others felt their hearts sink once more.
Weren't they back to square one, contemplating sacrificing Hinata for a greater gain?
Except this time Carnes made that choice for them.
"Hinata..."
Tsunade clenched her fists, grappling with her thoughts, the turmoil within her mind unclear to those around her.
Carnes glanced at her, a playful smile curving his lips as he said.
"Why the troubled expression, what's with that? It doesn't matter even if Hinata dies."
"Even if Hinata bites the dust, she'll be back on her feet when the time is right."
"She and everyone who kicked the bucket and perished in this war will be resurrected when the time comes."
The scales were tilted slightly against them.
These Shinobis were in disarray, making a mess of things here.
Carnes figured he needed to drop a little spoiler shock, providing a hint of what was to come.
Otherwise, the thrill of the journey would lack entertainment value.
"What!?"
"They will be resurrected!?"
"What does that even mean!"
"What's the catch there?"
Upon hearing Carnes' revelation, all the Konoha Shinobis, including Tsunade and Kakashi, were left dumbfounded. ...
No matter how proficient they were in medical skills.
They couldn't comprehend it all.
After all, their Hokage was no slouch when it came to medical ninjutsu, she was a skilled medical ninja.
But coming back from the dead?
No one could stay composed after hearing such a statement.
In this world, life and death were the crux of human existence.
If the dead could be brought back, what meaning did their suffering hold?
What was the meaning of being alive working hard, trying to fulfill your dreams, if you can just be resurrected.
As seasoned ninja in constant battles.
Who among them hadn't endured the heart-wrenching loss of a loved one or a comrade?
They all knew the agony of losing a loved one or a comrade.
If the deceased could be brought back.
What couldn't be achieved?
What limits were left unconquered?
In that moment, even the ninja who had regained faith in Carnes.
In that moment, even the ninjas who had put their trust in Carnes found themselves grappling with disbelief. This was just too surreal.
They harbored considerable doubt towards Carnes, for this was simply too incredible.
Suddenly.
Tsunade seemed to connect the dots.
Her expression darkened as if a realization struck her.
She stared at Carnes intently with a solemn face.
Her voice lowered.
"Carnes, are you referring to that technique? The one Orochimaru used to cause such trouble during the Chūnin exam!"
