Chapter 39 Bearing the darkness of Konoha, it is our duty!
Even with her senses fully activated, Tsunade couldn't detect Yuuki's chakra fluctuations.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a living person standing in front of her, she really wouldn't believe that a ninja could completely hide their chakra!
That's an absolutely divine assassination technique!
The most important reason why Kage-level ninjas are difficult to assassinate is that they can sense even faint chakra.
"what!"
In the instant Tsunade was stunned, Yuuki screamed and was about to fall to the ground.
To make the performance more convincing, he also used his mental energy to assault his body.
The next moment, he began to convulse and collapsed to the ground.
bang~
There was no sound of something hitting the ground.
Yuuki nestled into a warm, soft embrace.
"Bloodline limit? Did Yuuki's ancestors come from the Gekko family?"
Tsunade's hands glowed as she quickly examined the body, feeling around.
"Lady Tsunade, my head hurts so much... Ah."
Yuuki spoke with difficulty and a hoarse voice, then decisively manipulated his mental energy to induce a deep sleep. He then tilted his head to the side and fell asleep, resting his head on the 'soft' surface.
"That brat!"
Tsunade blushed slightly, suppressing the urge to use her superhuman strength, and did not throw the little brat in her arms away.
Carefully place it on the sofa and inspect it thoroughly from head to toe.
Tsunade regained her composure as a medical master, watching the brat's body twitch, his expression pained, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, and his three tomoe appearing and disappearing intermittently.
An extreme Uchiha brat!
Is it possible that someone like Ueda Tetsuichi, whom you've only known for a few days, could be so provoked?
Even the second bloodline limit has been activated!
Tsunade grabbed Yuuki's arm and rubbed it a few times, instantly calming his stiff body.
......
It was so cold I couldn't shiver.
An unfamiliar ceiling, a familiar smell of disinfectant.
Where am I?
When Yuuki opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar room, lying on a familiar custom-made hospital bed.
He felt stiff all over, and when he tilted his head, a piercing pain shot through his neck.
"I think my head got knocked to the side?"
This doesn't make sense, does it?
Did Tsunade discover my disguise?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Clatter!
The door was pushed open, and Yuuki sensed a familiar chakra.
Tsunade, looking displeased, walked in carrying a bowl.
"Hey, you extreme brat, you're awake!"
Yuuki grimaced and tilted his head, watching as the other person placed a bowl of dark...porridge? in front of him.
Can you guarantee this porridge will be cooked through?
Wait, isn't it burnt?
Setting down the bowl, she casually sat down on the stool next to her, glanced at the now-conscious Yuuki from head to toe, and snorted coldly:
"Kid, watch your temper! If I weren't here, you would have fallen and died at home long ago."
"...I really have to thank Lady Tsunade." Yuuki looked utterly dejected. "Thanks to you for specifically telling me the bad news."
hateful!
Tsunade coughed twice, avoiding the 'innocent and kind' gaze.
How could lips at 37 degrees Celsius utter such cold words?
Putting aside the facts, is it my fault for telling you this bad news?
Yuuki tacitly steered the conversation away from the topic.
When your boss is embarrassed, don't add fuel to the fire; instead, help them recall more difficult issues.
"Lady Tsunade, if we're no longer clarifying the rumors about Squad Leader Ueda, how should we handle things internally at the hospital?"
Upon hearing the words of concern for the hospital, Tsunade handed over the spoon in an annoyed manner, and the next second she pulled back the blanket.
"You slept all night and just woke up, what are you worried about at the hospital?"
Come on, let me check your body!
She roughly handled the flesh and bones, tearing and manipulating them until Yuuki's screams subsided, at which point Tsunade subconsciously released her grip.
There was no significant change in physical fitness, but there was a slight increase in chakra levels.
However, the pressure on the nerves in the brain is noticeably stronger.
This kid's bloodstain disease has probably worsened further.
"Sigh, I was concerned about the hospital situation mainly because yesterday, the investigation revealed the bodies and the crimes of the Jonin Utatane, and I excitedly shared it with the villagers. Since that's the case, I'll take ten days of sick leave..."
Yuuki, lying on the hospital bed, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems Tsunade didn't find anything wrong.
"Dream on!" Tsunade subconsciously patted her butt: "Don't worry about the villagers, the old man has already issued a gag order."
It was a pat on Yuuki's butt.
In an instant, their eyes met, and an awkward atmosphere spread.
Wait a minute!
Tsunade immediately realized that the person in front of her was just a nine-year-old brat!
She's the same age as Nawaki, and she's already beaten him before, so what's there to be embarrassed about!
“On the contrary, there are more problems inside the hospital!” Tsunade reacted quickly, her expression turning irritated.
Tsunade had assumed that Hiruzen Sarutobi was protecting the Utatane family and had already imagined that Natsume Utatane would be released without charge.
Unexpectedly, Natsume was sent to the Hokage's office by the police department and directly transferred to the interrogation squad to receive 'psychological education' from the Yamanaka clan.
As a result, Tsunade's suspicions about the Third Hokage lessened a little.
At least, the other party isn't some old bastard who protects beasts.
"What trouble could there be inside the hospital?" Yuuki asked curiously.
"So many problems! Financial collapse! Overstaffing! Vacancies! And those accomplices of Natsume Tsukishiro..."
This matter involves many people, not only the Jonin of the Utatane clan, but also a much larger number of civilian ninjas, and may even involve the Senju clan, which is deeply rooted in Konoha, and even clans with close ties to Konoha Hospital.
Originally, this matter could only be decided by Hiruzen Sarutobi, the leader of Konoha Village.
For some reason, the authority to handle this matter was delegated to Tsunade!
After hearing about the current situation at the hospital, Yushu narrowed his eyes and tapped his fingers lightly on the steel frame of the hospital bed.
"Ding! Ding! Ding!"
A moment later, Yuuki opened his eyes, clenched his right fist and tapped it against his left palm, and exclaimed in sudden realization, "I understand the Hokage's good intentions!"
"Good intentions?" Tsunade frowned. She felt that the old man was just trying to shift the blame and avoid the problem.
After a sleepless night of investigation, Tsunade felt she had figured out some of the chaotic situation at the hospital.
If I'm not mistaken, the problem lies in the excess of employees!
The fees charged by the medical team for performing surgery on patients, after deducting medical expenses such as material costs, are mostly distributed to individuals as surgical fees.
The medicines prescribed by doctors are sold at their basic purchase price.
The hospital has almost no revenue.
With too many people and too little money, wouldn't that lead to financial collapse?
Furthermore, excess employees cannot be dismissed at will...
As we all know, matters involving people are the most difficult to handle!
“That’s right! Overcrowded hospitals are a very difficult problem for the Hokage to handle!” Yuuki analyzed. “Therefore, someone needs to take the blame for offending people and quickly and decisively get rid of the extra people!”
"So, leave it to me! Bearing the darkness of the village is our duty!" Yushu's face was resolute, as if he were going to die for his country, and he accidentally knocked over the bowl of black porridge.
