Chapter 410
For the Kirigakure patrol team, this was just a routine patrol—nothing special!
The patrol squad moved along the lake, circled around it, and then started heading back.
More than half an hour later...
Haruto Saito and his team confirmed that the patrol squad had moved far enough away before daring to reveal themselves and continue their work. The squad itself wasn't a significant threat, but they couldn't simply eliminate it. If the squad failed to report back on time, the enemy would undoubtedly send more scouts to investigate.
Barrier concealment, digging holes, covering the entrances... It was a repetitive cycle!
Again and again.
By 8 PM, they had finally finished digging the necessary number of holes.
Haruto Saito and Hattori Ryuya had dug more than 300 vertical shafts and over 100 additional angled tunnels. After that, Haruto began setting up explosive tags.
Each hole contained at least one C-rank sealed explosive tag, and at most, one sealed explosive tag along with hundreds of standard explosive tags.
Beyond these holes, Haruto also planted explosive tags underground.
Since this was a mountaintop, the soil was at its thinnest at around two to three meters and at its thickest at seven to eight meters. Haruto could freely move within the soil layer, placing explosive tags wherever needed.
