Chapter 169 - Chapter 125: Tsunade Arrives to Treat the Wounded

Afterwards, Tsunade began treating all the injured through Katsuyu, which is one of the reasons she is called the Medical Saint.

Other medical ninjas can only treat one person at a time, but Tsunade can treat dozens, even hundreds, through Katsuyu. In the end, she could treat all the ninjas and villagers in the village.

After a while, Tsunade stopped the Chakra transmission, stood up and said, "Alright, everyone's injuries are more or less stabilized now. Just rest after the follow-up treatment."

Hatake Sakumo spoke again, "Thank you, Tsunade."

"Senior Sakumo, there's no need to be so polite..."

Tsunade waved her hand and said, then asked with some confusion, "Senior Sakumo, how did the Hidden Cloud Ninja lose? Didn't that kid say earlier that you were at a disadvantage?"

"Indeed it was like that at the time, the Hidden Cloud Ninja outnumbered us significantly, but today's victory is purely thanks to Mr. Yoichi."

Hatake Sakumo said, and seeing Uchiha Yoichi didn't mind, he continued, "Mr. Yoichi used the Mangekyo Sharingan to pin down the AB combination and also restrained the Eight-tailed in the Hidden Cloud Ninja's field... That's how we won this war."

"Mangekyo Sharingan..."

Tsunade looked at Uchiha Yoichi in astonishment, took a deep breath and said, "That's truly impressive, this is a power on par with Grandpa's Wood Release. From now on, the village is in your hands, little... Uchiha Yoichi."

"This time you didn't call me a kid, does that mean Lady Tsunade acknowledges me?"

"Hmph, still a hundred years too early, don't think I'll forget that matter!"

Tsunade said with a grumpy tone, swinging her fist, then realizing she was no longer needed here, besides Shizune was still waiting at the dock, she said, "Since the injured are fine, it's time for me to take my leave. By the way, do you need treatment?"

"I'm fine..."

Hatake Sakumo said, "Mr. Yoichi, it wouldn't sit well if the hero of the village refused treatment."

"That's right, with me here, why are you declining? Don't you trust my Medical Ninjutsu?"

Tsunade also said, thinking it's merely a routine matter, and observing no external injuries on Uchiha Yoichi, she wasn't worried about hemophobia.

"Alright then, I'll leave it to you."

Uchiha Yoichi didn't continue to refuse, he was indeed feeling some pain, especially in his eyes. Only Hashirama Cells could truly heal it.

Later Tsunade examined Uchiha Yoichi's body, pondered for a while and said, "Fast Chakra flow has caused damage to the entire meridian system; it looks like the aftermath of using Lightning Release Chakra Mode continuously for more than ten hours... Find me a tent."

After arranging it, Hatake Sakumo brought Uchiha Yoichi to a deserted tent, tapped the bed, letting him lie down, then said, "Kid, you sure can endure. If it were anyone else, they would have long since succumbed to the pain."

"Got used to it when training Lightning Release Chakra Mode..."

Then Uchiha Yoichi felt Tsunade's treatment, a refreshing sensation spread throughout his body, quickly alleviating the pain.

After a while, Tsunade suddenly asked, "I noticed something like bleeding in your eyes. The Mangekyo must be a huge burden, want me to treat it?"

"If Lady Tsunade can ease the pain, then I'll gladly accept your help..."

"I can't guarantee anything..."

Tsunade placed her snow-white palm over Uchiha Yoichi's eyes, starting Mystical Palm Jutsu treatment; however, after a while, it still had no effect.

"It's no use, simple treatment can't relieve your eye problem, the Mangekyo seems to cause irreversible damage to the eyes; fixing it requires extensive research."

Uchiha Yoichi got up and said, "No need, I already have a treatment plan, just can't execute it yet."

The eyes were far from blind, and by then he would have gotten Hashirama Cells.

"Since you don't need my treatment, I'll take my leave then."

After speaking, Tsunade waved and prepared to leave; with the war over and the wounded stable, there was no reason for her to remain.

"Let me give this to you, Lady Tsunade."

Uchiha Yoichi thought for a moment, then took out a Kunai from the Ninja Tool Bag and handed it to Tsunade.

This Kunai was specially made by him, with the special part being the hidden Flying Thunder God Mark, covered with ink and wrapped around.

Tsunade asked with a puzzled expression, "A Kunai? Why are you giving me this?"

"Just take it, it signifies great fortune, but don't toss it away after leaving.

Tsunade pouted with distaste, saying, "A Kunai with meanings of great fortune? Can it improve my gambling luck..."

Despite her disdainful words, Tsunade still held the Kunai without intending to throw it away.

As Tsunade prepared to leave, Uchiha Yoichi asked again, "By the way, Lady Tsunade, if I become the Fifth Generation Hokage, will you come back to assist me?"

"Wait until you actually become Hokage, you arrogant brat!"

Tsunade walked out of the tent without looking back, but soon regretted not giving that brat a beating for getting angry at the gate of Konoha.

Still, thinking it through, Tsunade gave up on revenge for now, for the little brat just became a Konoha Hero, best to leave it for next time.

Besides, Shizune was still waiting for her.

——————————————

The news of defeating the Hidden Cloud Ninja returned to Konoha, stirring up a huge commotion.

Sarutobi Hiruzen read the communication three times, finally handing it over to Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura.

After losing those strange dreams, Sarutobi Hiruzen's relations with Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura were a bit more relaxed, but remained extremely cold with Danzo.

In the past, Sarutobi Hiruzen would pass the intel he'd read to Danzo.

"Incredible, we actually won...."

After reading, Utatane Koharu handed it to Mitokado Homura, shaking her head in utter surprise.

"The Mangekyo's power can rival a Tailed Beast? Unbelievable. Who would've thought that decades later, the Uchiha would produce another Mangekyo..."

What? Mangekyo?

Upon hearing this, Danzo felt anxious, impatiently scratching, waiting for Mitokado Homura to finish before snatching the Communication Scroll.

His expression became increasingly grim as he continued reading.

"Hiruzen, what do you plan on doing? You shouldn't have forgotten what Tobirama-sensei said."

After reading the Communication Scroll, Danzo immediately addressed Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and said, "Of course I haven't forgotten, but Uchiha Yoichi defeated the Hidden Cloud Ninja, helping us secure a victory."

"Unlocking the Mangekyo requires extreme experiences, so every Uchiha who unlocks the Mangekyo Sharingan has uncontrollable emotions. Don't forget Uchiha Yoichi's previous behavior; the Shimura Family is just an example, not the only one."

"Did he hand over the Six Paths Ninja Tools to the village? The Two-tailed Jinchuriki is still not returned; Hiruzen, if you remain so naive, you'll betray Tobirama-sensei's spirit."

Danzo's words caused Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression to grow sober.

"The Two-tailed Jinchuriki, along with his own strength, Hiruzen, you need to think carefully about this."

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu were also swayed by Danzo's words; if a loyal ninja to the village wielded such power, they would be pleased.

But this power fell into Uchiha's hands, a Martial Arts Faction Uchiha...

"Hiruzen, Danzo's right this time; the Uchiha's race's expansion is too excessive."

"Indeed, Hiruzen, you must take action, you are Konoha Village's Hokage."

Both persuaded Sarutobi Hiruzen, and seeing this, Danzo couldn't help but smirk inwardly.

If the three of them agreed, Hiruzen would certainly consider if his decision was flawed, showcasing his indecisiveness.

"I'll think about this matter...."

After a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen said slowly, "At least after the war has ended!"
