Chapter 278

"I just don't know if there will be any rewards this time, but the system hasn't reacted at all so far, it seems a bit doubtful."

Kaito was lying on the bed, silently pondering, but just then his room door was opened.

"It seems you're recovering well."

Tsunade took the report from Shizune and, after carefully observing Kaito's condition, she nodded softly and said in a gentle voice.

Kaito was indeed in very good shape at this time. According to various reports, he was even much healthier than the average person.

However, Tsunade was still slightly frowning. As a descendant of the Senju clan, and directly from the line of Hashirama Senju, she knew many secrets.

Her main concern was not Kaito's body, but his eyes!

Kaito had demonstrated what kind of power this time, and she had witnessed it herself.

Such power could truly be described as cataclysmic, and the chakra giant called Susanoo was truly soul-stirring.

Especially that Susanoo, over a hundred meters tall and covered in armor, was defined as a world-destroying force in her grandfather's diary.

Because this power, it was Uchiha Madara's power!

Tsunade knew that although her grandfather had indeed defeated Uchiha Madara, he also paid a heavy price.

And according to her great-uncle Tobirama Senju's description, the Mangekyo Sharingan would continuously consume the power of the eyes and ultimately lead to blindness.

Now that Kaito had used such a staggering power, what was the state of his eyes?

This was Tsunade's main concern, after all, she genuinely held no animosity towards Kaito.

Moreover, from the perspective of Konoha, Kaito's existence was indeed a necessary element for Konoha to return to its peak.

Such power would make anyone tremble, and it seemed that Kaito had proven the legends of old.

When Konoha was first founded, a saying circulated throughout the ninja world, which was that not only did Konoha have the god of the ninja world but also its Asura.

And these two individuals could oppose a country on their own, together even the whole ninja world could be destroyed!

The young Tsunade initially did not take these words too seriously.

Back then, she had no idea just how formidable her great-grandfather, who taught her gambling and was incredibly kind despite his terrible gambling skills, really was.

It wasn't until years later, when she saw the marks of the battle between her grandfather and Uchiha Madara, that she slowly began to realize this.

But unfortunately, by the time she realized it, her great-grandfather had long passed away.

She could only see traces in her family's documents and learn some things from the legends of the ninja world.

But now she found that it all seemed to be true!

And the person who proved all this was Uchiha Kaito.

This guy used the power of the Uchiha clan to tell the world that the legends of old were true.

Her grandfather was indeed a being who could destroy a country by himself!

Although Tsunade didn't think that Kaito had the same power as Uchiha Madara did back then, Kaito could still change the course of a war by himself!

Tsunade had been through the Second and Third Great Ninja Wars, but she had never experienced a war quite like this one.

She just watched from the rear; the main force didn't follow up, and as a result, Kaito alone caused the enemy's main force to collapse.

He then overthrew the enemy's Kage and a group of villains by himself, and along with the surprise attacks from Shisui and others, he ended the war directly.

It can be said that this was the most absurd war Tsunade had ever experienced because there was actually no death toll in the major battle.

It was also the easiest war she had been through because everything was over before she could even react.

With such a presence, she naturally did not want Kaito to have any problems, because Kaito was definitely a strategic deterrent more terrifying than the Tailed Beasts!

"What's wrong?"

Just as Tsunade was silently pondering and worrying, Kaito gave her a strange look.

Because Kaito noticed that after she said that sentence, she froze completely and then looked at him with some inexplicable gaze.

This made Kaito scratch his head, as he was clearly fine, so why did she still look worried as if he wasn't?

"It's nothing, it's just that you should know, your problem isn't just physical, right?"

Tsunade came back to her senses, glanced at Shizune and then turned to look at Kaito, speaking in a somewhat cryptic tone.

"Are you talking about the eyes?"

Kaito of course knew what Tsunade meant and understood why she spoke so cryptically.

However, Kaito didn't pay too much attention to these things. There were some secrets he wasn't worried about being known, and there were some things he didn't plan to hide.

"Rest assured, my eyes are fine. This is definitely not me being stubborn, because my eyes are not just any ordinary Sharingan."

"Not just any ordinary Sharingan?"

Tsunade's expression became even more puzzled when she heard this, because she really didn't know there was a difference with the Sharingan.

However, one thing she could be sure of was that Kaito seemed to trust her very much as his new disciple.

The fact that he could speak so openly about such a secret as his eyes was somewhat beyond Tsunade's expectations.

But Tsunade also felt that perhaps Kaito simply didn't care about these things being exposed.

After all, this guy was already strong enough that even revealing some things didn't matter.

Tsunade leaned more towards this idea; after all, Kaito had indeed distanced himself from everyone else.

"Yes, not just any ordinary Sharingan, my eyes won't go blind."

Kaito looked at Tsunade with a smile and spoke leisurely.

"The specific reasons I will not say, it's a secret of the Uchiha clan, actually even the ordinary Uchiha do not know these secrets.

Uchiha Madara had this power back then, otherwise, he really couldn't say whether he could have dealt with your grandfather.

But those things are all in the past now, and the real winner was your grandfather, even though I don't agree with many of your grandfather's ideas."

"You really don't know how to sugarcoat things, do you? My grandfather was the First Hokage, after all."

Hearing Kaito's words, Tsunade felt a sigh of relief inside, but soon she started to feel annoyed again.

Kaito's remarks about her grandfather were not new, but this guy really didn't seem to know when to hold back.

So unabashed, did he really think she had no temper?

As for the secrets mentioned by Kaito, she did not dwell on them or care about them.

Powerful ninjas all have their secrets, and since Kaito himself said it was not a problem, she could only choose to trust him.

After all, in such matters, if Kaito was joking, the only one who would suffer would be Kaito himself.

Moreover, Tsunade could feel that Kaito's eyes still seemed to be so suffocating.

"It's good that you're fine, then take a good rest for a while."

Tsunade thought for a moment before nodding her head.

"I'll have Yaneko stay with you. If you need anything, just talk to her. I need to check on the others."

"The others, are you talking about Shisui and the rest?"

Kaito watched Tsunade's retreating figure and suddenly asked.

"That's right, how is the overall situation now, and how are Shisui and the others doing?"

Kaito was genuinely curious about such matters because he had passed out earlier and was not well-informed about the other events.

But he still remembered that before he lost consciousness, Shisui, along with Kakashi and Kakuzu, had run off to launch a surprise attack on the Iwagakure's rear.

These three guys, Kaito truly hoped nothing was wrong with them.

After all, one was his best right-hand man, and the other was the executor of his future 'inconvenient to appear in person' matters.

Of course, Kakashi would probably also be Sasuke's Jounin instructor in the future. This guy's abilities are also commendable, and naturally, it would be better if he didn't run into trouble.

"Their situation is a little more complicated than yours, but they are also key factors in ending this war."

Tsunade originally intended to leave these matters to Yaneko, but since Kaito asked now, she did not mind answering.

"Shisui's physical condition is very good, and he's recovering quickly.

As for Kakuzu and Kakashi, their injuries are a bit more serious, but there are no problems, and overall, they are in a state of recovery.

I think, in a few days, they should all be recovered."
