Seeing that Uchiha Yuu was so insistent, they could question his reputation and status, but they could not oppose his decision.
"Alright, then. I'll inform Lord Hatake. Please, Mr. Yuu, keep the mission as your top priority."
They did not actually care whether Pakura lived or died. She was merely a genius ninja of Sunagakure. They understood that, for a village as large as Sunagakure, one genius ninja was not enough to turn the tide of the war. At most, they would pay compensation in resources, and Konoha did not lack resources.
After they left, the forest returned to silence. Looking at Pakura, who was still lying on the ground, Uchiha Yuu snapped his fingers, dispelling the genjutsu that had trapped her.
"Ahh!"
The awakened Pakura broke out in a cold sweat. In her perception, she had clearly known she was under a genjutsu and had wanted to use chakra to break it, yet she had been unable to do so. She could not even move her own body.
Her entire being had been imprisoned in a void. The torment of her mind, combined with the exhaustion of her body, had pushed Pakura to the brink of collapse. At the very last moment, Uchiha Yuu released the genjutsu, allowing her consciousness to return.
"Your resistance to genjutsu really is weak."
Uchiha Yuu was not afraid that she would immediately fight back. She had gone a whole day without food, and that flying kick from earlier had left Pakura seriously injured. Uchiha Yuu had not fully treated her.
Hearing that familiar voice, Pakura immediately tried to rise and resist him. Yet the moment she climbed up from the ground, she staggered and fell back down.
"Move! Damn it!"
Her body was nearly spent. Treatment through Medical Ninjutsu carried certain negative effects.
