Hitsugaya felt somewhat helpless about this!
He wasn't Akai, and couldn't truly empathize with the current pain he was experiencing.
All he could do was offer some words of advice from a different perspective, hoping that he wouldn't let hatred and anger cloud his heart.
Otherwise, the clan members following him might be in danger when that time comes.
However, he had no certainty about how effective his words would be.
Given the traits demonstrated by Akai's clan's kekkei genkai, it was unlikely that this guy wouldn't lose his sanity at some point.
He could only hope that Akai could come to terms with things on his own. And that he would have 'bonds' with his companions.
"Akai! You are not alone now. Look at your companions behind you. Each of them has parents, relatives, brothers, and sisters waiting for them to return safely from this war!
I hope you will think about their fate whenever you make a decision!"
"Do not let the tragedy that happened to you repeat itself on them..."
Regardless of whether Akai listened or not, Hitsugaya hastily helped him treat his injuries. After greeting a few familiar clan members, he left directly.
He headed towards the battlefield where Uchiha Tetsuya had just gone to assist!
As for Uchiha Akai, he could only believe in fate now! He wasn't a saint; being able to provide support when he had the capacity was his limit.
Other than that, he could only apologize because his abilities were limited and he could do no more.
"Do not let the tragedy that happened to you repeat itself on them…"
After Hitsugaya left, Uchiha Akai, who had been indifferent to his consolations, opened his eyes.
Reflected in his somewhat dull black eyes were the images of his companions.
He saw each of them either silently bandaging their own wounds or resting exhaustedly. He began to murmur to himself.
For a moment, he fell into deep contemplation.
When he arrived at the other battlefield, the situation wasn't much better, although, unlike Akai's side, no one had died.
However, the number of heavily injured people had significantly increased.
The medical ninjas in their team were clearly feeling overwhelmed. Although the clan had been focusing on training medical ninjas in recent years, the results weren't very ideal.
At best, they had gone from relying entirely on individuals to having one or two medical ninjas in a team of ten or more.
But these few medical ninjas were struggling to handle the situation and couldn't attend to all the wounded.
It's not that the clan leaders didn't want to train more medical ninjas, but that the clan members lacked talent in Yang Release.
Often, out of ten or so clan ninjas, only one or two could successfully gather Yang Release chakra.
The clan leaders felt helpless about this situation.
On the frontlines, often they could only watch as clan ninjas died grievous deaths due to lack of effective treatment.
Requests to the village for medical ninja support had been made by clan leaders, but the village's replies were very official.
Everywhere lacked medical ninjas. The Uchiha clan also lacked them? Well, wait until Tsunade trains enough medical ninjas.
As for why the newly trained medical ninjas weren't assigned to the Uchiha camp? Well, that's beyond their control. Maybe you should ask someone higher up.
Without further ado, Hitsugaya began to help the medical personnel, alleviating their pressure.
He started to rescue the heavily injured.
"Haruka! Swallow this Blood-Replenishing Pill!"
"Hitsugaya... am I going to die? I've never worn a beautiful wedding dress... I've never been a mother... never..."
As Haruka spoke, a crystalline tear fell down her bloodstained and dusty face.
Uchiha Haruka, who was already somewhat delirious due to excessive blood loss, saw her childhood friend and murmured to herself, seemingly reliving her memories.
It was as if she had foreseen her fate.
"It will be okay, don't worry Haruka! You will have a wonderful marriage and a pair of lively, lovely children~"
Hitsugaya reassured her while putting the Blood-Replenishing Pill into her mouth, then took out a silver syringe from his ninja tools pouch and injected it into her carotid artery.
"Tetsuya! Hold Haruka down, don't let her move! And keep her awake!"
While instructing Uchiha Tetsuya, who was assisting him, Hitsugaya's hands kept working to treat Haruka's wounds.
The injection he had just administered was a stimulant specially developed by Uchiha Mika for critically injured patients. It could help Haruka stay conscious and prevent shock, facilitating better treatment.
At the same time, he asked Tetsuya to talk to her and help distract her.
Because her wounds were severe, treating her would inevitably touch her injuries.
And anesthesia was too time-consuming at this point!
"Um... ah..."
As Hitsugaya pulled a ninja knife out of Haruka's body, she started groaning and struggling in pain.
If it were not for Tetsuya and others helping to hold her down, continuing the operation would have been impossible.
Haruka was severely injured, not only by the enemy's ninja knife but also with multiple fractures and traces of Iwa ninja techniques.
Combined with the massive blood loss from external wounds, he had to act quickly. She might not survive for a few more minutes otherwise.
Transporting her to the rear for treatment was out of the question!
Even so, Hitsugaya wasn't confident about pulling her back from the brink of death.
He could only do his utmost!
Hoping it wasn't too late!
