Two minutes later.
"You mean, Lady Tsunade drank too much and then fell asleep?"
Kurenai couldn't help but raise her voice and ask.
And look at Tsunade, who is lying on the wooden stake, her back rising and falling gently.
Kakashi's deadpan gaze gradually froze.
"Keep your voice down." Facing the two with their contrasting expressions, Uchiha Ike didn't immediately explain. Instead, he frowned and whispered a reminder: "Lady Tsunade is asleep."
As he spoke, he picked up the green robe with the word "gamble" printed on it from the ground and gently covered Tsunade with it.
Kurenai and Kakashi exchanged a glance, sensing that things were getting even stranger.
Just two hours earlier, when they were struggling with how to snatch the bell, Uchiha Ike suddenly said he had a new idea.
But Uchiha Ike refused to reveal the specifics, only telling them that the matter was very complicated and they shouldn't ask too many questions.
In short, he had a way to lower Tsunade's guard, get them away from the area, and prepare for battle before moonrise.
Although they were completely confused after hearing this, the two left the place because of Uchiha Ike's analytical abilities, and made full preparations for the upcoming battle.
Kakashi ate three soldier pills in a row, bringing his body to its optimal state.
Kurenai Yuhi brought home a sealed scroll containing items, allowing her to cast illusions that combine reality and illusion at any time.
result......
Did Uchiha Ike get Tsunade drunk?
And this kind of operation?
So stealing the bell is this easy?
"Did you bring it?"
Just then, Uchiha Ike spoke up and looked at the two of them.
Kakashi's eyes flashed with confusion, and he asked in a low voice, "Bring what?"
"Clothes, of course," Uchiha Ike said matter-of-factly.
"clothing?"
Kakashi frowned, then recalled that before leaving, Uchiha Ike seemed to have told them to bring back something useful.
"You mean...something useful?" Kurenai Yuhi finally snapped out of her daze, staring blankly into Ike Uchiha's eyes. "...clothes?"
"Yeah, it's getting cooler at night now, and Lady Tsunade is asleep, so shouldn't we wear an extra layer to keep warm?" Uchiha Ike asked somewhat curiously, "What did you bring?"
Kurenai hesitated for a moment, then reached out and unsealed the scroll. Vibrant cherry blossom petals danced in the moonlight.
Kakashi paused for two seconds, then took out a few soldier rations from his pocket.
Uchiha Ike raised an eyebrow in surprise and muttered to himself, "Enjoying flowers with snacks isn't necessarily a bad thing."
Kakashi & Kurenai Yuhi "..."
[Embarrassment detected from Kakashi Hatake!]
[Gain 10 points and increase defense by 2%!]
[A blushing sensation detected from Kurenai Yuhi!]
[Gain 10 points and increase defense by 2%!]
Seeing the system notification, Uchiha Ike's lips curled up slightly.
so fun.
"Actually, I didn't expect things to turn out this way."
Uchiha Ike chuckled and shrugged: "At first, I just thought that if I could get Lady Tsunade to have a few more drinks, her reactions would be a bit slower, and we'd have a better chance."
At this point, he looked at Tsunade, who was fast asleep beside him, with a wry smile. "It seems that the Sannin's workload is really heavy. Lady Tsunade actually fell asleep."
Kakashi stared intently at Uchiha Ike, his expression somewhat complicated.
Tsunade spends less than a month in Konoha each year, how can you lie like that?
However, he couldn't say much, since he was the strongest fighter in the team on the surface, yet he hadn't done anything and had just won without lifting a finger.
"Now that there's no need for fighting, all that's left is to get the bell."
Uchiha Ike paused for a moment, then looked at Yuhi Kurenai, who was still staring at him with her mouth slightly open, clearly not having recovered yet.
"Kurenai, please find the bell."
As things stand now, it's more appropriate for Kurenai Yuhi, who is also a woman, to do body searches.
When her name was called, Kurenai Yuhi finally looked away from Ike Uchiha's face: "Oh... okay!"
She tiptoed slowly toward Tsunade, while Uchiha Ike and Kakashi also came to a tree a little further away.
There was a moment of silence between them.
It wasn't until Kakashi spoke first.
"How did you do that?"
Even though he had a rough idea of what was going on, Kakashi still couldn't help but ask.
How do I get the bell?
Get Tsunade drunk first, then put her to sleep and you can get it.
It sounds simple, but like putting an elephant in a refrigerator, it has an absurd quality that makes it impossible to put into practice.
However, Uchiha Ike did just that.
This made Kakashi unable to suppress his curiosity.
Why is it that this person with such peculiar thinking is always able to do things that ordinary people wouldn't or couldn't do?
Faced with Kakashi's question, Uchiha Ike smiled but did not answer immediately. Instead, he turned his head to look at Kakashi.
"You really want to know?"
"...Fine, don't tell me then."
"It's very simple, just put your heart into it."
"?" Kakashi looked over, seemingly confused. "With heart?"
"That's right, it's all about putting your heart into it."
Uchiha Ike chuckled, then changed the subject, saying, "Kakashi, the path of a ninja is always lonely and cruel..."
"In my opinion, although Lady Tsunade is always smiling, her past is definitely not easy or bright, and is even much heavier than ours."
After all, how could a happy person suffer from hemophobia?
He turned to Kakashi: "Do you know how many important people Lady Tsunade has lost over the years?"
Kakashi shook his head.
"First were the Senju Hashirama couple, who were his grandparents; then his parents; then his great-uncle Tobirama Senju; and then his younger brother, Nawaki Senju..."
Uchiha Ike raised his head, his gaze towards Xuan Yue filled with a touch of melancholy: "To this day, Lady Tsunade has no family left."
Kakashi didn't say anything, but they both looked up at the moon.
The sky was overcast and the night was hazy, but for some reason, he could vaguely see his father, Hatake Sakumo's, face.
"When you lose enough, you build a high wall in your heart and close yourself off to avoid being hurt any further."
"In my opinion, the smile on Lady Tsunade's face is a kind of protective coloration."
"However, humans are social animals. Whether it is pain or joy, sharing is human nature. Even the most closed-off person will eventually have a chance to be understood."
"As for me, I just happened to appear by Tsunade's side when she wanted to confide in the outside world, and I was willing to listen to her troubles."
So.
Kakashi, do you also long to be understood?
Uchiha Ike looked at the silent Kakashi.
Just as he was about to try some basic talk therapy, Kurenai Yuhi ran over from not far away.
Their conversation ended there.
"What's wrong, Kurenai?" Uchiha Ike asked with concern.
Kurenai stopped abruptly in front of the two, bracing herself on her knees to catch her rapid breathing.
"A bell..."
"A bell?" Kakashi asked, puzzled.
"The bell is nowhere to be found!"
