Chapter 291: Chapter 291 If this Genjutsu can’t be dispelled

[If this Genjutsu can’t be dispelled, will they just freeze to death?]

[Yes, that’s how Genjutsu kills people.]

[╰(*°▽°*)╯ ~ Surprise!!!]

[Too strong, one trap after another, the Sunagakure Ninja had no time to react.]

[It makes me so excited.]

[So cool, so cool! A typical Uchiha fighting style, it’s been a long time since we’ve seen it after Mirror disappeared!]

[I was there, I can testify that Naraku was truly, truly handsome.]

[Naraku got MVP!!!]

[Can’t argue with that, definitely the best of the whole match.]

Sunagakure suffered heavy losses and retreated disconsolately, leaving behind a chaotic battlefield.

Naraku quickly handed Pakura over to another Jonin for safekeeping, then rushed back to treat Ebisu, using a high-level Medical Ninjutsu like the Delicate Illness Extraction Technique.

In the animation, the rescue process took less than half a minute, and he had already rescued the person from the Shinigami with his superb skills.

The atmosphere of the entire scene began to relax.

Ebisu, slowly regaining consciousness, still looked a bit dazed.

Inuzuka Tsume was discussing battle plans with another small team of Jonin, while Might Guy, Shiranui Genma, and Hyuga Hizashi were busy cleaning up the battlefield.

Only Naraku silently stood with his back to everyone, his shoulder leaning against a tree trunk, pressing most of his body weight onto it.

[Ebisu has a strong life force; if Naraku wasn’t here, he would have just died.]

[The importance of having a battlefield medic in the team.]

[Naraku seems like he can’t stand anymore?]

[Our Baby Naraku is a patient, have you all forgotten? Wuwuwuwu.]

[Traveling for a day and a night, participating in battle as soon as he arrived, and then having to use Medical Ninjutsu to save someone... Even a healthy person couldn’t handle all that, let alone him?]

[Wuwuwuwu, no one noticed TAT]

Ebisu’s head spun, feeling terribly dizzy and disoriented.

His pupils, dilated from the poison, had not yet recovered, so he couldn’t see clearly, only a blurred silhouette standing to his left.

That shadow leaned against the tree trunk and trembled twice, and a cough seemed to be carried on the wind.

-- Naraku?

He desperately wanted to ask if the other person was injured, but his body, having just purged the toxins, was extremely weak, unable to even speak, only emitting a hoarse gasp.

The other person noticed he wanted to speak, gently patted his shoulder, and softly comforted him: "Don’t rush, Ebisu, you’ll probably be able to speak and see clearly in about half a day."

The person in front of him was indeed Naraku, but his voice sounded relatively normal, so he should be fine, right?

Ebisu’s muddled brain made this judgment.

So he relaxed, nodded with effort, and then leaned against the tree to rest with his eyes closed.

[Is Baby Naraku spitting blood? QAQ]

[I really wish Inuzuka-sensei would discover this scene and send him to the rear.]

[The battlefield is full of blood, Inuzuka wouldn’t be able to smell it.]

[It was the same when he went to save Shisui; no matter how much pain his body was in, Naraku could keep his voice steady to deceive people.]

[Ebisu, don’t fall for this little fool’s trick ahhhh... T-T]

[If only Kakashi were here, Kakashi would definitely be able to tell that Naraku is about to collapse wuwuwuwu.]

[Only Kakashi in the whole world can see through Naraku’s lies at a glance.]

The next moment, the camera moved to the front line of the Konoha and Iwagakure confrontation.

The much-anticipated Kakashi appeared on screen, swiftly taking down the last enemy.

The mission was complete, but he still looked very tense, muttering "Something’s wrong."

Excluding reasons like the enemy having more ambushes or a mission oversight, Kakashi realized that this unsettling feeling of unease seemed to be completely unfounded.

-- But was it really unfounded?

If there was no immediate danger, then it was some kind of resonance from his soul warning him.

-- Could it be... Naraku?

Kakashi’s heart tightened, recalling Naraku’s mission to infiltrate the Land of Rain, where he had experienced the same sudden premonition, the same restless anxiety.

-- No, it can’t be.

Last week’s letter still contained a photo of Naraku; Aunt Mikoto said he was doing well.

-- The Sharingan Reincarnation Seal is also operating normally, so he’s fine... He could only comfort himself this way.

Otherwise, what could he do? Abandon everything on the front line and return to Konoha Village as a deserter?

For a moment, Kakashi really wanted to do that, and his body had already reacted, but reason desperately pulled back his agitated emotions, burying this impulse in the most unreachable depths of his heart.

[What kind of telepathy between close friends is this... Greatly shocked.jpg]

[After all this, you still insist these two are close friends?]

[Is it telepathy between XQL? Hachika, you guy...]

[Trust your instincts, Kakashi o(╥﹏╥)o]

[It reminds me of the line ’My seven-foot body is already pledged to the nation, I can no longer pledge it to you.’]

[If he abandoned his comrades and left, he wouldn’t be Kakashi Hatake...]

[If Naraku were here, he definitely wouldn’t leave the front line for his own selfish reasons; they are both such foolish idiots.]

— —

Naraku somewhat suspected this was another montage technique by the Animator, pasting Kakashi’s reactions from a certain period here, making it seem like the two had telepathy... But in the depths of his own unconscious mind, a faint flicker of anticipation mysteriously lingered.

Because having someone in the world who worries about you so deeply is such a bittersweet and happy thing.
