Chapter 688 - Chapter 419: The Fall of the Shell Organization

"Sasuke, are you awake..."

Early in the morning, Uchiha Sasuke woke up and heard Sakura's voice. He instinctively turned his head to look and saw Sakura getting dressed. After a glance, Uchiha Sasuke turned back around.

But after turning his head, Uchiha Sasuke felt a surge of doubt. Did he do that kind of thing last night?

Otherwise, why would Sakura be dressing her naked body?

"Sakura... last night we..."

"Stop it, Mr. Sasuke, don't say any more..."

Sakura stifled her guilt, pretending to be bashful as she spoke to Sasuke. This behavior made Uchiha Sasuke immediately associate it with what he had done last night.

With this thought in mind, memories that shouldn't exist began to flash in Sasuke's brain. But Uchiha Yoichi's secret medicine was effective, making Sasuke mistakenly believe he had done such a thing.

The main thing was that he didn't suspect Sakura of lying to him, so he didn't think much about it and had no real doubts.

After Sakura got dressed, Uchiha Sasuke also got up from bed, dressed, and said, "I'm sorry, Sakura, I have to leave the village today."

"It's alright, Mr. Sasuke, the mission is important, but be careful out there, don't forget to take the secret medicine..."

Sakura's heart was filled with guilt toward Uchiha Sasuke, and she expressed her concern on her face as she advised him.

"I'll take good care of Sarada at home."

"Yes, I'll leave the house in your hands."

After Uchiha Sasuke finished speaking, he dressed and left the room.

Once Sasuke went out, Sakura sat weakly on the bed, feeling a sense of fear and guilt. She feared Sasuke would see through her lie. But now it seemed that Mr. Sasuke believed her...

"I'm sorry, Mr. Sasuke."

Sakura muttered silently to herself. She didn't want to deceive Uchiha Sasuke, but to protect her home and Sarada, she had no choice.

Then Sakura gently touched her belly. She now had to find a way to deal with the pregnancy, besides relying on Uchiha Yoichi, she also had to prepare on her own.

After preparing breakfast and seeing off Sasuke and Sarada, Sakura went to Konoha Hospital.

However, just as Sakura sat down in her office, Shizune came in with some documents to find her.

"Sakura, we're quite busy lately. The village just accepted a commission; Aoki Trading Company plans to hire some medical ninjas to volunteer at places that have suffered significant disasters. We need to send at least thirty medical ninjas."

"Aoki Trading Company, sounds familiar... they're the ones selling orange phones, right? And also filming with Hinata? Why would they hire medical ninjas to volunteer?"

Sakura thought for a moment, then shook her head in confusion. However, she also saw the scroll sent by Naruto; as long as they provided thirty medical ninjas, the rewards were generous, although there were many places to go.

Shizune shook her head, too, saying, "I'm not quite sure, maybe they're trying to promote their drama and phones by doing good deeds everywhere."

"Is that so? Taking away thirty people at once makes the staff at Konoha Hospital a bit stretched..."

Even though saying this, Sakura quickly selected thirty medical ninjas. After confirming the task personnel list, Sakura and Shizune went to notify them separately. Fortunately, it was only for one month.

After arranging personnel, Sakura hadn't realized the severity of the situation. This was precisely what Uchiha Yoichi arranged for the Tenseigan Clone to do overnight.

As long as Konoha Hospital was short-staffed, Sakura would become busy, and with many things to do, she'd have no time to deal with the child in her belly, relying only on him or could only deliver the child.

Upon learning the news, Uchiha Yoichi, who was busy with alchemy, had a subtle smile on his face before refocusing on the elixir in the alchemy furnace.

He was refining a Fifth-Grade Elixir to protect the fetus, such that if Sakura took it, it would allow the baby in her belly to be delivered smoothly and accumulate strong power during infancy.

If Temari's child was intentional by Uchiha Yoichi, then Sakura's was purely accidental. Initially, he only sought Sakura's body, but after tasting her, he lost interest; he didn't expect one attempt to succeed.

But it wasn't just one attempt; that night, it was at least four or five attempts.

With this child, maybe there would be opportunities in the future... Uchiha Yoichi withdrew the smile on his face and focused on the elixir refinement.

————————————

The power of the Five Great Ninja Villages is indeed strong, especially when they unite; as long as the Shell Organization has traces of life, it can be found by the Five Great Ninja Villages.

Especially within the Shell Organization, there are insiders who want Otsutsuki Isshiki dead.

With Sanju Amado's deliberate leak, the Five Great Ninja Villages quickly found traces of the Shell Organization, particularly the core base of the Shell Organization.

Otsutsuki Isshiki's Otherworldly Space was no longer useful, as Uchiha Sasuke had completely marked it, leaving only the remaining bases in the Ninja World.

Although concealed, as long as they're in the Ninja World and need supplies, it's impossible to hide from the Five Great Ninja Villages.

Thus, after locating the Shell Organization, elite ninjas from the Five Great Ninja Villages, along with the Five Kage and Uchiha Sasuke, took action against the Shell Organization.

Jigen, though formidable, had already suffered severe bodily damage; Kawaki's vessel hadn't been cultivated well, and the life data of Otsutsuki Isshiki hadn't completely thawed. If Jigen were to die now, Kawaki would have to wait a long time for the Wedge in his body to defrost completely.
