Chapter 16 - Rest

When the wall of fire disappeared everyone looked over to see what happened. When they turned around they saw five bodies laid on the ground.

The remaining swordsman was Raiga, his only hope for survival was the four swordsmen fighting Yama would kill Yama and come to save him, that's why he was struggling to survive.​​

But now that he saw the four of them had died he didn't continue to fight he just accepted his death. Duy kicked his head and killed him on the spot.

Friday immediately ran over to check Yama's condition. He came over and gently pushed Yama and rolled him over to his back. He carefully looked at him and he knew Yama had just exhausted his chakra and nothing more.

Yama usually deliberately exhausted his chakra to increase the size of his chakra pool so this scene was very common for Friday.

The Duy and team Choza also ran over to Yama. Friday barked and signaled that Yama was fine. Duy let out a sigh of relief and sat down behind Yama. He was also exhausted and could hardly move because he overexerted himself.

After confirming Yama was safe Friday started to do his usual job, which was looting the corpses and collecting their heads. He took out a bunch of sealing scrolls from Yama's pocket and he headed towards the corpse of the seven swordsmen.

He 1st carefully checked all the bodies to check if they had any valuables and he put whatever he found on the sealing scroll then he carefully placed all of the seven swords in different sealing scrolls.

Duy and the others were confused at first as to what Friday was doing but once he started putting the swords in the sealing scroll everyone was clear what he was doing.

Guy, Genma, and Ebisu had never witnessed death before so seeing so many people being killed today and them being looted right in front of their eyes was not a pleasant scene. Even Duy was visibly uncomfortable.

"Friday it's not nice to loot the corpse." Guy said.

Friday tilted his head and looked at Guy as if Guy was dumb. Friday was seven and half years old and out of those seven and half years, he had spent 5 years of his life on the battlefield.

And for him, things like this were very common. He had seen not only Yama do this but also many other people looting the person they killed.

Friday ignored Guy and continued doing his job. Once he had finished looting the corpse it was time to collect the head. Friday knew all 7 of them had a bounty on their head so he needed to collect all of them.

He infused chakra on his front paw and sharpened his claw. With one swing of his hands, he decapitated the corpse. The blood started to spurt out of the body.

Guy and the others couldn't handle such a scene and began throwing up. Even Duy threw up. Soon, Friday finished everything up. He came over and carried Yama on his back and signaled Duy and others to follow him.

Since Duy couldn't move Guy carried him on his back and started following after Friday. Friday brought everyone to a nearby cave so everyone could rest.

Yama didn't wake up for 8 hours and after 8 hours he finally woke up.

Friday again came over to Yama to get his cuddle and petting. Every time Friday carried Yama to a safe place after Yama passed out he would demand attention and praise which of course Yama was more than happy to provide.

So Yama woke up and started petting Friday. "You are the best friend I could ever ask for. I love you so much."

Friday happily wiggled his tail and licked him. Guy looked at Yama who just woke up.

"How are you are you? How are you feeling?"

"Never been better." Yama replied while moving his arms.

"How did you end up near Kiri?" Yama asked.

"We had a mission to deliver this scroll to a spy of Konoha hiding in Kiri and after that, we are heading to Kumo to deliver another scroll to Jiraiya sama who is leading the battle against Kumo."

"What about you uncle Duy why are you here?"

"I was just worried about Guy and decided to follow him."

"Ok, Guy you deliver the scroll to the spy in Kiri and head back to Konoha with uncle Duy, he needs medical attention."

Ebisu and Genma didn't seem to like Yama's idea. "What about scroll we need to deliver to Jiraiya sama?" Ebisu asked.

"I will take the scroll and head to Kumo."

"The scroll is super confidential we are ordered to directly hand it to Jiraiya sama and no one else."

Yama was annoyed by his tone. He released conquerors haki and yelled. "Shut up, I am not asking your opinion, I am ordering you do you understand?"

Ebisu, Genma, and Guy all felt the murderous intent and they were all close to passing out.

"I asked you a question." Yama yelled again.

They all weakly nodded his head.

"Good, you should know your limits, if I wasn't here today you would have died here along with Uncle Duy, so accept that you are weak as bugs compared to some of the monsters that are participating in this war and put your head down and learn to adapt or have the strength to do as you please. Now give me the scroll."

Guy took out the scroll and handed it to Yama.

Duy looked at Yama and asked. "When are you going to return to the village?"

"I will return once the war is over and it won't take long for the war to end. Kazekage is already dead so suna will sign a peace treaty and once suna signs a peace treaty Kumo and Iwa will be put on a tough spot and they will also soon sign the peace treaty."
