Chapter 40 Konoha Hospital
Chapter 40 Konoha Hospital
Both of them experienced a thrilling and exhilarating feeling during this battle.
The two lay on the ground, panting heavily, completely disheveled.
Looking at his character panel, Uchiha Ye was overjoyed to see his physical strength rise once again.
Might Guy was even happier, as he had never experienced a battle where he communicated solely through physical combat before.
He was just about to give a thumbs-up and praise him.
Uchiha Ye spoke first, "Senior, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now. We can spar another day."
After saying that, he ran away.
"He still has energy left." Might Guy was even more impressed now.
Uchiha Yoh left, of course, because Itachi hadn't arrived at the training ground yet.
It's well past the agreed time; something must have happened.
She thought back to three months ago when the Roots tried to capture her.
"Danzo didn't catch her, so he went to catch Itachi instead!"
Thinking of this, a sense of worry welled up in her heart, and she quickened her pace.
She hadn't seen Itachi along the way, but when she was almost at Itachi's house, she finally spotted that familiar figure.
Uchiha Ye jogged over and came to him. "Itachi, are you alright?"
Itachi was clearly stunned for a moment, then met Ye's worried expression. "Ye, I'm fine."
"Sorry, you must have been waiting at the training ground for a long time."
Upon hearing that Itachi was alright, Uchiha Ye felt a sense of relief and collapsed to the ground.
"Ye, what's wrong?"
Itachi caught Yoru as she was about to fall to the ground, and only then did he notice that she looked as if she had been pulled out of the water, with countless bruises of all sizes all over her body.
An unprecedented sense of panic spread through his heart.
He quickly picked the person up and carried them to Konoha Hospital at the fastest speed he had ever traveled.
This can't be blamed on Uchiha Yoru. She always saves some energy for meditation to recover after each battle, so naturally she won't let these bruises show up.
This time, she was a little too anxious and afraid that something might happen to Itachi, so she overexerted herself, which led to this situation.
In a ward at Konoha Hospital, a little girl lay with a furrowed brow, while Itachi Uchiha stood guard beside her.
Although he already knew that Ye's unconsciousness was due to exhaustion and that he would wake up soon after resting, he was still very worried.
"Ye is most afraid of pain. With so many bruises on her body, she must be in a lot of pain."
Just as he was about to gently smooth Ye's furrowed brows, a pair of eyes as bright as stars opened.
"hiss..."
As soon as Uchiha Ye woke up, he immediately felt pain all over his body and gasped.
She quickly controlled the flow of spiritual energy within her body, and soon the bruises on her body began to fade away. After circulating her meridians for a week, all the bruises on her body disappeared, restoring her former fair complexion.
"I'm finally alive."
As soon as he turned his head, he met Itachi's worried gaze.
"Itachi, I'm fine, don't worry."
"But did something happen to you today?"
"Don't hide anything, or I'll get angry," Uchiha Ye said domineeringly.
Itachi, who had initially intended to conceal some things, immediately abandoned that idea. He knew Ye too well; if she wanted to know, she would definitely press for answers and keep her word.
Spending so much time together with him left him with deep feelings.
The two quickly began to talk, recounting the events of the day.
"Itachi, you're amazing! You actually defeated two Chunin."
After hearing about what happened to Itachi today, Uchiha Ye immediately praised him.
Upon receiving Ye's praise, Itachi Uchiha immediately became dazed and confused.
"Children are easily flattered."
She looked at Itachi and couldn't help but shake her head inwardly.
Uchiha Hato was alright, and it was late at night when the two left Konoha Hospital.
"It's so late, I should have just slept in the hospital."
She glanced at the sky and thought to herself.
"Itachi, let me take you home first!"
"Otherwise, your family will definitely worry."
"Ye, I'm a boy, so I should be the one to take you home first."
Although his family would definitely worry if he went home so late, how could he let Ye walk home alone so late?
Suddenly a figure appeared before them. Although he was wearing a mask, Uchiha Yo recognized him at a glance: "Kakashi-senpai."
Ye's words truly shocked Itachi. "Ye seems to be very familiar with this Anbu member in front of him."
A feeling of unease welled up inside me.
Kakashi's expression faltered slightly. His face was hidden behind a mask, so he composed himself and said in a slightly serious tone, "It's so late, and you two are still not home. This is a very dangerous situation."
"Ye, you're a girl, so you need to be even more careful about safety."
"Now I'll take both of you home."
Kakashi gave it a lecture, then used a shadow clone ninjutsu to send Itachi Uchiha home, while his real body sent Yoru Uchiha home.
This behavior puzzled Itachi, but he couldn't explain why.
On the way back, Kakashi was explaining safety awareness to the little girl next to him, which made Uchiha Ye drowsy.
"Kakashi isn't a lazy bum, so why is he so talkative?"
"She really didn't understand, but chose to respect it, but it was so hypnotic that I really wanted to sleep."
Uchiha Ye muttered a couple of complaints in his mind, but couldn't resist the drowsiness and dozed off, staggering along unconsciously.
Kakashi immediately noticed the change in the person beside him, and his lips twitched involuntarily. When she stepped on a stone and almost fell, he simply pulled her over and carried her on his back.
Not only did Uchiha Yoru not wake up, but feeling the warmth emanating from Kakashi, he found a good position for his head and slept even more soundly.
Kakashi was startled and silently carried her on his back, heading towards her house.
Arriving at the door of Uchiha Ye's house, seeing that she showed no signs of waking up, Kakashi hesitated for a moment before pushing open the door and going inside.
After settling her on the bed, he picked up the blanket to cover her, and immediately noticed two copies of "Intimate Paradise" hidden inside.
"These are the two books he dropped."
Kakashi noticed a mark on the paper, recognized it instantly, and looked at Ye on the bed, his face visibly turning red.
He hurriedly covered Ye with the blanket, then grabbed the two books he had dropped earlier, and left the house with a hand seal.
In the early morning, Uchiha Ye woke up in bed, stretched, and said, "I slept really well."
After glancing around, she immediately realized that Kakashi had brought her back last night.
She fell asleep halfway there, and no one knows exactly how she was brought back.
Uchiha Ye was too lazy to investigate further; after all, he hadn't lost a piece of his flesh.
She tidied the bed, feeling like something was missing, but couldn't quite put her finger on it.
"Never mind, I already overslept today, I'd better get to the training ground early, otherwise Itachi will worry."
After washing up, Uchiha Ye hurriedly left his room and headed to the training ground.
