Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 111 Campfire

Konoha Village, the Forest of Death.

Sunlight streamed through the gaps between the leaves, forming beams of light that shone on the withered leaves and moss on the ground.

Even during the day, it appears incredibly dark!

In the forest, strange bird calls or animal roars could be heard from time to time.

A chilling, penetrating sense of dread arises spontaneously.

This made every examinee who moved through the forest extremely cautious.

"Well, let's make this our temporary campsite during our time in the Forest of Death!"

Standing beside a truly enormous tree, Toshiro circled it once and nodded in satisfaction.

Then I looked around at the surroundings.

Hmm! Quite good, close to the water source, and there's not much of an obstruction around it.

The key advantage is the wide field of vision, making it less likely to be ambushed!

"Toshiro! Shouldn't we be looking for the hidden quest items first?"

Uchiha Tetsuya, who had been following behind without saying much, finally spoke up and asked.

He was quite impatient, eager to find the quest item right now and successfully pass the test.

Uchiha Homura, on the other hand, was much more composed than the others.

He glanced at the surroundings and gave a slightly disgusted look.

Toshiro did not answer Tetsuya's question, completely ignoring his presence.

Instead, he used his feet to push off, and in just a few steps, he reached the middle of the big tree.

I parted a leaf that was obstructing my view and peered inside the tree trunk.

"Just as I suspected, there really is a tree hollow here!"

Then, I peeked inside and found that the interior space was quite large.

He couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile!

"Flame! Don't be upset! Finding a campsite like this in the wild is already quite good!"

Jumping to the ground, Toshiro saw that Uchiha Homura was still somewhat dissatisfied and had to say something to comfort her.

Although the little girl has undergone nearly a year of training, some of the habits she has developed since childhood are still difficult to change.

Unlike Tetsuya and Toshiro, who were boys, they didn't care about these things as much.

As long as there's a place to stay, that's enough!

"That's the only way!"

Uchiha Homura wasn't an ungrateful person; when she was in the wild, she should be grateful to have a place to rest where she could shelter from the wind and rain.

Having a tree hole is already quite rare, so it's not good to be picky.

"What are your plans regarding the items for this mission?"

Seeing that the campsite had been decided, she asked curiously, wanting to see what the other party thought.

However, both of them tacitly ignored Uchiha Tetsuya's remarks, which made the other party quite dissatisfied.

"A plan?"

"No."

"Uh~"

Even Uchiha Tetsu, who had been making a ruckus the whole time, was somewhat taken aback.

I never expected to get such an answer from Toshiro.

"So, so..."

"You should listen to me and go find the quest items now, that way we can get there sooner~~~"

"Shut up!"

"Nobody's asking for your opinion right now!"

Before Uchiha Tetsuya could fully express what he wanted to say, he was interrupted by Uchiha Homura.

She still remembers it!

Not long ago, the opponent's 'poor performance' in the training field!

Just thinking about her makes me angry!

Watching his two teammates, they were once again enacting a love story that seemed to have happened many times before.

Toshiro did not interrupt, and ignored Tetsu's pleading look.

On the contrary, they watched their performance with great interest!

At my age, finding a younger girlfriend is something I've never even considered.

However, watching these two bickering together is a good way to pass the time.

"Alright! Zhe, go patrol the surrounding area, set up warning traps, and check for any wild game!"

Seeing that the two women had finished arguing, Toshiro gave instructions. At the same time, he didn't forget to tell Homura, "Homura, tidy up the tree hollow and prepare some firewood!"

Now that Toshiro has become the captain of this squad, he can give the two of them orders.

As for the reason, it wasn't because Yan was noble and virtuous, but because after Toshiro successfully awakened his Sharingan, he automatically became the leader among the three of them!

This is perfectly normal in the Uchiha clan!

"bonfire?"

"Toshiro! Are you sure?"

Lighting a campfire at night at this time of year is quite dangerous.

This will attract all the test takers within a few kilometers to come here!

At that time, the three of them will be facing not just one or two enemies.

"Searching for the quest items one by one is too much trouble! Let's rest for a night and then lure them all over!"

Looking at his two companions, Toshiro smiled and said casually.

"this"

Even the fearless Uchiha Tetsuya was momentarily dumbfounded.

Staring blankly at Toshiro, he couldn't utter a single word!

On the contrary, it was Uchiha Homura, the girl, who seemed eager to try.

"That's what we'll do!"

Without the slightest hesitation, after hearing this suggestion, Uchiha Homura felt that they should do it.

Looking for scrolls or something, that's where fighting is more interesting.

She couldn't wait any longer!

"You two~~~"

Uchiha Tetsuya was speechless; he didn't even know how to respond!

To everyone's surprise, Toshiro, who usually appears mature and composed, would come up with such an unreliable idea.

And Yan readily agreed!

This really overturned his worldview!

In fact, the main reason why Toshiro came up with this idea was because the examiner this time was Minato Namikaze.

The assessment also includes a rule that opponents must not be maimed or killed.

He believed that lighting a bonfire at night would attract more than just test takers.

This will also attract the attention of the examiners.

Accidental injuries or deaths are almost nonexistent.

That's why he was so bold!

Of course, part of the reason is that over the years, despite continuous practice of "entering samadhi," I have never felt any natural energy.

This made him feel extremely irritable and he needed to vent!

"Stop hesitating! I've never seen you this cautious before!"

"Why do you become so long-winded when it comes to crucial moments?"

Seeing his childhood sweetheart still so hesitant at this moment.

Uchiha Homura was extremely dissatisfied!

He couldn't help but reprimand them!
