Minato took advantage of Naraku's distraction, located the broken bones, and with a forceful hand, reset all the fractured ribs. The sudden pain made Naraku almost jump out of his skin.
After he came to his senses, his pitiful little expression made Minato laugh and also made the audience breathe a sigh of relief.
[Hahahahahahaha, it reminds me of when I saw someone get their bones reset before—exactly the same!]
[It's true that it works best when they're not paying attention.]
[What a miracle doctor, Dr. Wave, a master of rejuvenation!]
[Naraku's eyes suddenly became clear, hahahahaha!]
Might Duy laughed at Naraku a few times, then rolled his eyes and fainted.
The crucial part was that the animator, with ill intent, played tense music as he fell and used slow motion to show the audience him slowly collapsing, paired with Minato's horrified expression. Many viewers were fooled, thinking Might Duy was about to die.
However, in the next second, Might Duy was seen lying on the ground, snoring, with snot bubbles emerging from his nose.
[The Old Thief, I will not rest until you are destroyed! (Angry)]
[You scared me to death; I almost really thought Uncle was going to kick the bucket.]
[You tricked me again!!! (Angry)]
[Good thing I wasn't fooled, haha.]
The scene shifted to the other side. Kakashi's eyes were fixed on Naraku, who had just had his bones reset and was teary-eyed. Only after seeing that he was fine did he suddenly feel his head was very heavy.
He held his head, which was wrapped in many layers of bandages, and turned to look at Kazama Resshou beside him, complaining, "Is it really necessary to wrap so many layers?"
The animator even considerately added a large drop of cold sweat on top of his head.
Kazama Resshou, the "hot-headed older brother" in the audience's words, had a night of ups and downs, great joy and great sorrow. He almost thought that two geniuses from his Konoha were going to die on this mission, but luckily, these two children were tough enough.
Now that his heart was at ease, his words returned to their original nature, expressing concern for his companions with a string of curses, which greatly amused the audience.
[Yo yo yo yo yo yo yo~]
[His eyes really can't leave him for a moment~]
[Hahahahahahaha, Kakashi looks like a big-headed doll now.]
[I'm really going to die laughing; everyone in Konoha is a master of abstraction.]
[Kazama would love to wrap Kakashi like a mummy.]
[Kazama: Wrap it thick, it'll heal faster!]
[Medical Ninja: ??? The wound needs to breathe, you idiot!!!]

This episode was almost over. Naraku was about to skip the ending credits when he noticed many people in the comments reminding later viewers not to close it, as there was an easter egg after the ending song.
He slowly dragged the progress bar until the ending song finished, and sure enough, there were still over four minutes left.

Under the moonlight, nearly half of the Matsukata residence had collapsed, with ruins everywhere. Surviving servants and maids ran and shuttled through it, and the noisy conversations were mixed with faint cries.
The camera showed Minato's back as he silently sealed the bodies of his fallen comrades, carefully putting the scroll back into his bag.
The animator then showed his profile, a calm expression tinged with sorrow, which sparked a huge wave of fan comments.
[This is not the first time Minato has collected the bodies of his comrades.]
[The profession of a ninja is truly cruel. Killing or being killed is always unavoidable.]
[Minato must be heartbroken. Everyone was here when they came, but several people are gone when they return.]
[Although I feel very sorry, I want to say... his profile is truly stunning.]
[I've screenshotted it; this is my phone wallpaper for the month.]
[Plus my computer and tablet wallpaper.]
Suddenly, the camera shifted. Many people ran back and forth in the corridor, and then the scene moved indoors. Naraku and Kakashi were lying on the tatami mats, both awake, staring blankly at the ceiling, lost in thought.
Suddenly, Naraku reached out and touched Kakashi's stomach.
In the close-up shot, it could be seen that Kakashi's abdomen, beneath Naraku's palm, was gently rising and falling with his breathing.
As Kakashi turned his head, the background they were in turned pure cream, and their appearances were made cute and chibi by the animator.
Kakashi, with his Byakugan eyes, said helplessly, "What are you doing?"
A symbol representing shock appeared above Naraku's head, and then he weakly explained, "Confirming you're still alive."
Kakashi's silence manifested as six huge black dots at the top of the screen.
[???]
[When I type a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, it's that you have a problem.]
[You're not right, Naraku.]
[Hahahahahahaha, Naraku might have a little PTSD.]
[Baby, you don't need to touch someone's abs to confirm if they're alive.]
[Just say you want to touch them; Kakashi wouldn't say no, would he?]
[Kakashi: Am I going to just lie here and die?]
[Silence is the Cambridge of this evening.]
[So abstract, hahahahahaha!]
When the scene switched again, it returned to its original, more normal style.
Naraku complained that Kakashi refused to leave at the time, but Kakashi countered by asking why he had to leave.
In the audience's impression, Naraku had always been honest with Kakashi, and he didn't disappoint them.
He looked at Kakashi and replied in an incredibly serious tone, "Because I don't want you to die."
Kakashi looked at him in return. "Me too."
The camera adjusted to a position directly above them in mid-air. Kakashi and Naraku were on the left and right sides of the screen, looking at each other, just like that evening.
Naraku's voice softened a bit, seemingly a little guilty. "Isn't that foolish? If we both stayed, we would both die..."
But Kakashi became even more resolute, stating his thoughts directly, "Anyway, I won't let you die before me."
[Oh my god—if this isn't a confession, then what is?]
[They are really real... (TДT)]
[Mom! I've found the real thing!]
[I'd trade ten years of my ex's life for their 99 years together.]
[Their love talk is so dense!]
[Because both of them are very honest with each other.]
[I'm not very good with words, so here, I'll contribute two hundred.]
[Two hundred, just to show my support.]
[As soon as Kakashi gets serious, Naraku immediately feels guilty. How is that not a form of being henpecked?]
[Our Naka faction has finally risen! We're proud, so proud, hahahaha!]
[Pfft, isn't Kakashi's declaration enough to make him a top?]
[Kakanaru is the true way!]
[I'm different from everyone else; I prefer mutuals.]
[Count me in, those of you ahead!]
Naraku's eyes flickered, then a hint of a smile appeared.
The camera showed Kakashi's entire head, tightly wrapped and enormous. The animator even added funny sound effects, completely shattering the emotional atmosphere.
Under Kakashi's speechless gaze, Naraku laughed twice, and immediately suffered the consequences, his ribs hurting terribly. He grimaced and gasped for air.
Kakashi called him foolish, but he, too, looked at this fool and smiled along with him.
[Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!]
[Kakashi, with a head like that, you can't blame Naraku for laughing!]
[I'm really dying of laughter. Just thinking about Kakashi with his head wrapped so big, saying such serious things, I can't help but burst out laughing.]
[Kakashi: I wanted to look cool... QAQ]
[Naraku: Ow, ow, ow, it hurts!]
[Nara-baby~ Don't be too arrogant when making fun of Kakashi, or the consequences will be dire (doge)]
[Is your consequence legitimate?]
[It's definitely legitimate.]
[Folks, who understands? The significance of Kakashi's smile... I'm dead (peacefully).]
[I understand! I understand!]
[That's what love is~!]
[Kakashi: Who secretly~ stole my heart~]

Naraku's face, hidden under the covers, was aching from laughter. After calming down, he clicked on the last available episode.
