Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 136 Crimson Flame

Early the next morning.

The rising sun was obscured by dark clouds on the horizon.

The sun was stingy, not shining its light on this terraced mountain whose face had been completely destroyed.

Having finished his training in the tent, Toshiro stretched and lifted the tent flap to head to his work post.

He now practices three times a day, each time creating two shadow clones to help him complete his physical cultivation.

Do it once in the morning, noon, and evening, in an orderly manner.

In this desolate place, everything is meaningless; only strength is the most reliable thing.

He dared not relax even for a moment.

At the same time, he was not afraid of being discovered by others while cultivating in the camp that he knew immortal arts.

First of all, Jiraiya isn't here. Even if he were, he'd be discovered, so what could he do to me?

As a member of the Uchiha clan, even if the information is leaked and someone wants to harm me, they should think twice.

Otherwise, why would he help the family so much? Finding spirit beasts and compiling statistics to help the family reduce casualties.

Isn't it all so that in crucial moments, there will be a big tree to shelter you from the wind and rain?

"Toshiro, you've come at the right time! Quick, take a look at me!"

Just as he entered the medical tent, a voice called out to Toshiro.

Looking back, it was someone I knew.

"Oh! It's Chi Yan! I didn't expect you to be here too!"

As he spoke, Toshiro approached the other person and began to examine their condition.

The person who called out to Toshiro was none other than Uchiha Akane, who had participated in the "Battle of the Grove" with Toshiro during their time at the Ninja Academy.

Unexpectedly, the other side also arrived at the camp.

"I was only recently transferred to the front lines, but I didn't expect Toshiro to be so popular here!"

This guy is three or four years older than Toshiro, so it's not surprising that he was transferred to the battlefield at this time.

The front lines are so short-handed, and the enemy is almost old enough to go to war. Our family has done a good job in this regard; so far, we haven't sent any children under twelve to the battlefield.

In the words of an older clan ninja, "We elders aren't all dead yet, how can we send these brats to the battlefield! If we do that, what was the point of establishing Konoha?"

While his words were certainly inspiring, Toshiro knew that as the war continued, this resolve would eventually be shattered by reality.

As for Toshiro's popularity, such a large summoning beast frequently travels between the village and the camp, always bringing much-needed supplies, so of course everyone welcomes him.

Besides, Toshiro is a medical ninja, and in a battlefield, no one would be foolish enough to offend a doctor.

"It's nothing serious, a little treatment will do. Do you have any missions next?"

It wasn't a serious injury, just a cut from a kunai, located on my arm, and it didn't damage any tendons or bones.

This kind of external injury doesn't even require special treatment; it will heal on its own in four or five days.

"Hmm! We have another supply escort mission next! We'll set off tonight!"

Although Toshiro had help, his summoning beast was not omnipotent. There were still many supplies such as food, ironware, and tents that needed to be transported to the camp little by little by ordinary ninjas.

Moreover, because they were carrying a large amount of supplies, the ninjas' mobility was not fully utilized on the road, and a single mission would often take ten days to half a month.

If you're unlucky and encounter any unforeseen circumstances along the way, the mission might take even longer.

No wonder!

Under normal circumstances, such external injuries heal gradually through the body's own healing abilities.

While medical ninjutsu can accelerate the healing process, everything has its advantages and disadvantages, and the price to pay is not light.

Medical ninjutsu stimulates cells near the wound, causing them to divide rapidly to achieve a healing effect. While this is fast, it consumes a significant amount of the cells' own energy.

In extreme cases, it may even be necessary to extract nutrients from the patient's body to make up for the deficiency.

At the same time, the number of times each cell can divide is limited. Frequent use of keratin to stimulate cell division can lead to premature aging.

However, since the other party had a mission that night, he didn't say much and began to treat the other party.

As he completed the hand seals, a soft green light slowly emerged from his palms. Carefully maintaining the hand seals, Toshiro slowly approached the affected area and began to treat Uchiha Akane.

It was just a minor injury, nothing to Toshiro, who took care of it in no time.

At the same time, he added a warning: "Chiyan! Although the wound is almost healed, you still need to be careful when you move around to avoid tearing it open again!"

Medical ninjutsu isn't a panacea; newly formed flesh and blood tissue differs in strength from the original. A slight mishap could cause secondary damage.

"Really? I'll be careful! But I feel completely better now~"

"Hey Toshiro, is there anything you need...?"

After completing the treatment, Uchiha Akane didn't rush to leave. Instead, he approached Toshiro with a mysterious expression and whispered something in his ear.

"Do you have any secret methods for awakening the Sharingan? Could you please teach me...?"

As she spoke, she looked at Toshiro with hopeful eyes, as if he had some kind of magic pill that would instantly awaken her Sharingan.

He's almost 14 years old, and although he's already a Chunin, he still hasn't awakened his Sharingan, which is making him anxious.

Furthermore, the current battlefield situation is constantly changing, and a sudden attack could occur at any moment. If he successfully unlocks the bloodline limit of his family, he will have even greater confidence in his own strength.

Upon hearing this, Toshiro couldn't help but roll his eyes inwardly and mutter a curse under his breath.

These guys are really persistent...

He has no secret method to help awaken the Sharingan.

Having read the original work, he knew that the awakening of the Sharingan is usually accompanied by intense emotional fluctuations, mostly negative ones.

Without experiencing injuries or deaths of companions, or the loss of loved ones, leaving oneself exhausted and worn out, one probably has little chance of success.
