Kapitel 28: Chapter 28: Public Execution
Is he treating me?
Uzumaki Eri stopped her tears and stared blankly at Shishou beside her.
Even Karin was doing the same, staring straight at Shishou.
Although Karin didn't understand medical techniques, she noticed that wherever Shishou's hand passed over her mother's arm, those detestable bite marks disappeared.
This made her very happy.
"This is really delicious."
"What's your name?"
Seeing that Karin was gradually trusting him, Shishou paused his treatment, unwrapped a candy, put it in his mouth, and handed one to Karin.
"Karin."
Smelling the candy's fragrance, Karin quickly snatched the candy from Shishou's hand and immediately hid beside Eri to eat it.
Watching Karin's actions, Shishou smiled, thinking:
As expected of Uzumaki Karin, she's got quite the guts.
Seeing Karin's behavior, Eri was momentarily stunned and cautiously glanced at Shishou.
Noticing his smile, she finally relaxed.
Then, her body trembled, and a blush crept up her face.
Because Shishou had resumed his treatment, and this time, he was treating areas without bite marks...
If possible, Eri really didn't want to be stripped in front of her daughter, even if it was for treatment.
However, she had no courage to resist Shishou, so she closed her eyes and blushed, letting him proceed.
"What... what are you doing..."
Before long, Uchiha Izumi and Uzuki Yugao, who had fought their way out of Kusagakure, arrived beside Shishou. Seeing the scene before them, both blushed.
Uzuki Yugao even questioned directly.
"What are you doing?"
"Disgusting..."
The arriving Uchiha Mikoto also stepped forward to check the situation and, upon seeing it, blushed and spat.
As for Uzumaki Eri, who was the center of attention, she trembled all over when she heard more people arriving, her face turning red as if she were being publicly executed.
If she could, she really wanted to faint right then.
"Phew!"
"I'm just treating her."
"Why do you always think of dirty things?"
Shishou exhaled, wiped the sweat off his forehead, took a blanket from his bag, and covered Eri with it, explaining to the three women behind him.
Eri didn't need treatment per se; her body's energy was just exhausted. This was easy for Shishou to handle.
He directly let the Phosphorescent Bad Bug absorb his chakra and then transferred it to Eri.
Once Eri's body energy was replenished, those bite marks naturally disappeared.
Of course, completely erasing the bite marks from Eri's body wouldn't happen overnight; it required long-term energy supplementation.
"Tch, pervert."
"I'm injured too, treat me."
Uzuki Yugao ignored Shishou's explanation and extended her injured left hand towards him.
Both she and Uchiha Izumi had sustained injuries, and Uchiha Mikoto was also quite wounded.
"Get lost!"
"Mikoto, what about the people from Kusagakure?"
Shishou slapped Uzuki Yugao's hand away, applied a healing bug to her, and turned to Uchiha Mikoto.
"They've been shaken off. No need to worry about them pursuing us."
Mikoto replied.
"In that case, let's leave. I'll summon the centipede."
Shishou said, forming hand seals to summon the giant centipede.
What's a centipede?
Karin wondered while eating her candy, looking at Shishou curiously.
Summoning Jutsu!
Boom!
As the giant centipede appeared, Shishou picked up the blanket-wrapped Eri and jumped onto it.
"Wow."
Seeing the giant centipede beneath Shishou's feet, Karin was stunned.
"Mikoto, take care of Karin."
"Alright."
Mikoto lifted the stunned Karin and jumped onto the centipede behind Shishou.
Seeing everyone onboard, Shishou stomped his foot, signaling the centipede to move.
Glancing at Eri in his arms and the lightly dressed Karin, Shishou instructed again:
"Little Red, raise your shell."
Several armor plates on the centipede's head lifted, forming an enclosed space around them, shielding them from the cold wind.
Shishou skillfully took out a lantern and hung it on the edge of one of the armor plates, illuminating the area.
He clearly wasn't doing this for the first time.
"Sir, what do you plan to do with us?"
Eri asked hesitantly, although she felt he meant no harm, she was still worried.
Moreover, she noticed that the youngest among them, Shishou, seemed to be the leader.
"Don't worry."
"I won't harm you."
"Once you've recovered, I'll find tasks for you."
"I need hands for my enterprises in the Land of Fire."
Shishou smiled at Eri. He found her truly beautiful, especially after recovering a bit.
He wondered what she would look like fully recovered. She might be as stunning as Mikoto.
And she looked so delicate and easily bullied.
"Okay..."
Eri agreed, and then, unable to resist her exhaustion, she fell asleep holding Karin.
After surveying the shell surroundings, Karin also dozed off in Eri's arms.
Seeing this, Shishou quickly took off his jacket and covered them.
With both of them asleep, Mikoto used Eri's blanket to cover the parts of her legs that were exposed and looked at Shishou.
"Are they the reason for your trip?"
