Chapter 99 Setting a Trap
Chapter 99 Setting a Trap
Upon arrival at the camp, they were allowed in only after a registration and inspection process.
"That's really strict. I guess they're afraid of enemies sneaking in."
Soon, they were taken to the main camp.
"This must be Nara Shikaku!" His signature pineapple head is truly eye-catching.
While Orochimaru was talking to him, Uchiha Ye carefully observed him.
"If she got this hairstyle, would she become exceptionally intelligent?"
She pondered this possibility, then glanced up at the red bean hairstyle and immediately dismissed the idea.
The differences between people cannot be measured by their hairstyle alone.
Uchiha Ye thought he was being discreet, but in reality, everyone saw through his actions, except for Anko.
After handing over the supplies, she belatedly realized that Orochimaru and Anko were gone.
She turned to Itachi and asked, "Itachi, where did Orochimaru-sensei and Anko-nee go?"
"The teacher and Anko had to leave first, and asked us to stay in this camp for a while and follow Shikaku-senpai's instructions." Itachi knew that Ye Fangcai was staring at Shikaku-senpai and hadn't paid attention to their conversation at all.
"Ah! Is that so!" A hint of confusion flashed in Uchiha Ye's eyes.
Just then, various wounded soldiers entered the camp, some being helped in and others carried in on stretchers.
"Where's the medical ninja? Come quick..."
As soon as he finished speaking, two medical ninjas rushed over, quickly provided basic treatment, and then carried him into the medical room.
Uchiha Hajime and Itachi stood quietly to the side, watching without saying a word.
"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do to help him with his injuries!" This kind of situation is common on the battlefield. Upon hearing this, his comrade covered his face and cried.
After thinking for a moment, Uchiha Ye stepped forward and said, "Let me give it a try!"
"You..." The medical ninja glanced at her, but finally stepped aside. Since things had already come to this, there was no harm in giving it a try; what if a miracle happened?
"Lay him flat!" she commanded.
After the person was laid flat, she was able to see the injuries on the person in front of her.
"Tsk...it looks pretty scary."
Uchiha Hashirama knelt down and stuffed the exposed internal organs back in, then used the 'Healing Palm Technique' to heal the wound in his abdomen.
"Alright, you can handle the other minor injuries!" Uchiha Ye said calmly, withdrawing his hand.
"Thank you... thank you..." Her companion burst into tears of joy, her face full of gratitude.
"You're welcome. I'm also a member of Konoha."
Her actions left the medical ninjas nearby dumbfounded, feeling that their mastery of the 'Healing Palm Technique' was different from others.
Kaguya Uchiha knew they were thinking something and would say, "Your feeling is right, she used a palm technique imbued with spiritual power."
More and more wounded were being carried in, clearly indicating a major conflict had broken out with the Cloud Village.
"It's strange. This war should have ended long ago. Why is it getting more and more intense?"
As the number of wounded increased, Uchiha Ye felt embarrassed to just stand by and do nothing, so he helped treat the more seriously injured ninjas.
After a busy night, I can finally rest.
"Itachi, I'm so tired..." Uchiha Ye leaned on Itachi's shoulder and said weakly before falling asleep.
Once it was clear that Ye was asleep, Itachi gently wiped the blood off her face, then picked her up and carried her to the tent where they were to rest.
After a nap, Uchiha Ye regained her energy and opened her eyes to see Itachi lying next to her.
"Itachi, he looks handsome even when he's asleep!"
She stared at it for a while, then secretly pinched Itachi's cheek.
After succeeding, his eyes crinkled with laughter.
"Wow... his hair is so smooth, the only man in the Uchiha clan whose hair doesn't stick out." Uchiha Ye rested his chin on one hand and played with Itachi's hair with the other, his eyes sparkling.
She noticed that Itachi's eyelids twitched, so she quickly turned over, lay down, and closed her eyes.
After a while, there was no movement. She opened her eyes again and turned around, just in time to meet Itachi's deep eyes.
"Did they find out what we just did?" She blinked and asked calmly, "Itachi, did you just wake up?"
"Ah."
In fact, he had already woken up when Ye woke up, but he didn't expect that Ye would do so many little things after he opened his eyes a little later.
He was still wondering what else Ye would do, and his restless heart made his eyelids twitch. Even now, Itachi still feels a little regretful when he thinks about it.
Upon hearing Itachi's reply, Uchiha Ye visibly relaxed. "If you're awake, then get up and find out what arrangements Shikaku-senpai has for us."
The two went together to the main camp.
"Senior Shikaku!"
"You've arrived! This is your task for today!" Without further ado, Lu Jiu pulled out a scroll and handed it over.
The weasel took the scroll and opened it.
Uchiha Yo's gaze fell on the scroll, and he began to read it as well.
"Senior Shikaku, we'll be leaving now without further ado."
"Hmm." Lu Jiu glanced at them and gave a faint reply, then suddenly remembered something, "Oh right, thank you for last night."
"Senior Shikaku, the Uchiha clan is also part of Konoha. If you need us, please call us anytime. We will do our best to help." Uchiha Ye's voice was not loud, but it carried a convincing tone.
Watching them walk away, Shikaku fell into deep thought.
What exactly did the village mean by sending two Uchiha clansmen to the battlefield for training, and then deliberately finding an excuse to make Orochimaru leave?
Having received the materials for making traps, they didn't linger and headed straight to their destination.
"Itachi, can I improve the trap? It looks too obvious." Uchiha Ye inspected the traps the two of them had made in a day and asked with great dissatisfaction.
"I guess so!" Itachi's tone carried a hint of uncertainty.
"Forget it, let's not change it, so we don't get accused of not following the requirements. But adding some traps is definitely no problem." Uchiha Ye immediately thought of another way.
"Alright." Itachi showed no objection; on the contrary, he indulged her.
With his permission, Uchiha Ye took out a scroll and a whole bunch of odds and ends, leaving Uchiha Itachi dazzled.
"Ye, what is this bottle?"
"Paralysis and cramping poison," Uchiha Ye replied with a glance.
"And this?" Itachi asked, picking up something that looked like bread from the ground.
"Weasel, be careful, this is a stinky pouch. Even a little bit of it won't go away for ten days or half a month." She replied nervously, afraid that the weasel might accidentally break it open.
Itachi remained silent for a long time before saying, "Ye, it seems like these things of yours can't kill anyone."
"Itachi, sometimes a mental breakdown is more terrifying than death!"
"Just you wait and see, as long as any enemy dares to pass by here, hehehe..." Uchiha Ye grinned wickedly and pulled Itachi away to add more traps.
"Finally, it's all done!" She put her hands on her hips and nodded with great satisfaction.
Uchiha Itachi helped set up the new traps from beginning to end, hoping that the enemy would not pass by.
"Itachi, what are you thinking about? Do you think adding traps isn't good enough?"
Upon hearing this, Itachi broke out in a cold sweat, a rare occurrence for him. He took a deep breath and said, "Ye, the mission is complete. Let's go back to camp. It's not safe to stay any longer."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
