spike it up

Hattori was content to watch the others work, to take a moment to mull it all over and observe from afar. It was worth a try and if Hattori was not content with the results then they could easily dismantle the trap and use the spikes for something else. He'd been thinking of using some bamboo to form some bridges over the bay, float them atop the shorter channels, making the area even easier to traverse and fish. Knowing all this effort wouldn't go to waste pleased the Kaicho and he appreciated the warrior's line of thought, would leave him to deal with it, if he so desired.

"I will leave organising it to you then, check on the trap periodically if you have time. Report to me how it fares."
