Back to the village
Konoha…
Because of broken bones and damaged organs from the cold, the anbu medic wasn't able to heal Izumi–san no matter how much he wanted however with my medical skills and chakra senses I started sending my chakra into her body after eating a chakra boosting pill.
With time I successfully removed all the cold from her organs then while inserting more chakra in her to speed up the regeneration I finally started healing her organs and by the time I successfully heal half of her broken bone I lost my consciousness once more because of the backlash from the chakra boosting pill as well as my poor condition.
The next thing I found when I regained my consciousness I am in the Konoha hospital and beside me Izumi–san is lying on her hospital bed while a short ponytail teenager is speaking with her very intimately.
"Have you finally woke up? " I asked Izumi San with a smile as I got to know from her that the boy by her side is her boyfriend Itachi Uchiha as Itachi thanked me for helping her heal.
Afterward, she also explains it was the Anbu who brought us back after we lost our conscious and it is already a day and a half after the fight on the frozen lake of Ice.
After a few hours, Shikaku sensei and Hana also came to visit us and from then I got to know that the news of my injuries is hidden from Naruto and others to make sure they are not worried.
With another day of rest, I recovered from my fatigue, and to my surprise, the chakra reserve in my body has increased by almost half a time from the fight with Doten.
Although I was expected to return home today however in the end ai didn't return and stayed in the hospital while Izumi–San went home with her boyfriend.
In the evening I got a visit from the old man who came along with some sweets in his hand making my anger lessen at him but I am still angry at him for not coming when I was injured.
"How do you feel now? " asked Hiruzen as he takes the empty seat beside Kazuna's bed.
"Alive are you disappointed? " replied Kazuna with an emotionless expression.
"Why would you say something like that? " asked Hiruzen in surprise upon finding such a response from Kazuna.
"or you are glad that your weapon is not damaged too much that is? " Kazuna inquiries farther with an angry shout that didn't leave the room because of the soundproof sealing jutsu placed on this room my Hiruzen or his man.
With that, an argument broke between the two of them, and on a certain point, Hiruzen admits he knew Doten was a hidden spy if Kirigakura however he never knew Doten will turn out to be so strong and have a weapon like the seven secret swords of Kirigakure.
After that, they also argued over Kazuna and Naruto being the Jinchuriki of the village to which Hiruzen can only ask for his forgiveness showing even a man in his position will be helpless sometimes.

Hokage Tower...
After recovering to a satisfactory limit the whole team Shikaku got summoned by the 3rd Hokage for reporting and here we are.
After Shikaku sensei finished his reports the old man looks at me for a second before announcing "For not being successfully guarding your client to his destination and causing his death your team has failed the C-rank mission you were appointed with. "
"But Lord 3rd he was an enemy? " shouted Hana with a serious tone looking at the old man before I can say the same thing to him and from the expression Izumi–san is no better than myself.
"Let lord 3rd end his statement first? " asked Shikaku sensei with a serious tone stopping Hana from further argument.
"As I was saying you have failed the C-rank mission however because of the plot against us and attacking you by ambush he had violated the turns of the guarding contract so the mission was not valid anymore and it wasn't of any use or important if the mission was a success or failure.
Now to the next point.
Although your mission was a failure and invalid however because of the betrayal and ambush… " with that he started explaining that our mission was upgraded to S-rank and after recovering help from the Anbu we were granted A-rank mission payment which is provided by the village.
After that, we were asked to take a break for a while and that duration will be decided by Shikaku Sensei.
After leaving the Hokage tower we went to eat in the Ichiraku Ramen and to my surprise, I found Naruto, Hinata, and Neji devouring ramen as if someone is going to still it away from them while aunt Hinako is trying to make them ear properly but why us she eating faster than them if she wants to teach them etiquette???
"Trash like you guys aren't going to win against me. " declared Hinata before devouring the 3rd bowl of ramen while ordering "One more bowl please? "
"A girl shouldn't be trash talking like that Hinata. " said Aunt Hinako with a serious face before giving an order "Cone on brother hurry up I am dying in hunger over here? "
"Although I don't disagree with you being stronger than me when we are training however you will be mistaken if you think you can defeat me in a challenge of eating? " announced Neji before putting his order.
"I the future Hokage and I am not going to lose against the likes of you? " said Naruto before receiving his ramen.
"Let's not eat here? " I suggested with a weird face almost not recognizing the changes my brother and everyone went through in just a month.
(Time skip effect little boy )
"Isn't that yellow hair kid your brother? " asked Izumi-san with surprise.
"Aren't you going to say hello to him after meeting after such a long time? " asked Hana in confusion.
" Maybe after I am done with the meal. " I replied with uncertainty.
"Fine. "
================
(-_-) Because of the Anbu interference in the previous chapter, I wasn't able to explain some of the abilities Doten's sword has and for now, I am going to put them as a skin cut and we will know the ability in the future if possible.
