Chapter 13
In the operating room, a blonde woman with a perfect curve that couldn't be concealed in her vest ninja suit gently placed her hands on the abdomen of the wounded person lying on the operating table. Her hands glowed with a healing jutsu, emitting a light green hue.
Afterward, she took a deep breath and reached for the basin beside her. To everyone's surprise, the once clear and warm water turned jet black in an instant.
"The poison has been completely eliminated," she announced.
The blonde female ninja then unbuttoned her mask, revealing a pretty face with a hint of heroism but also not lacking in charm. Despite being 28 years old, she still looked as if she were in her early twenties. Her name was Tsunade Senju, The granddaughter of Hashirama Senju and Mito Uzumaki.
When MIto Uzumaki was the Jinchurki of the nine tails. Kurama was even more miserable than when he was captured by Madara or Hashirama. It was tied to a rock with adamantine chains and couldn't even move.
"As expected of Tsunade-sama!"
"The new poison developed by Chiyo has been neutralized again!"
"With Tsunade-sama around, Chiyo's poisons are nothing!"
The medical ninjas in white nursing suits in the operating room cheered and shouted.
Tsunade's expression remained calm, though a glint of coldness flashed in her emerald-colored eyes. She stayed here solely due to her medical ethics as a doctor. She couldn't bear to stand by and watch a patient die.
It wasn't the first time; a year ago, when something went wrong with the Senju family, she couldn't stand idly by either. If not for her intervention, many men would have died, and it would have caused a major issue for Konoha.
"Tsunade, wipe your sweat," someone said, holding a towel and offering it to her.
Tsunade turned to see Kato Dan, a person she had encountered frequently during her time on the front lines. She couldn't help but feel a tinge of envy toward this Genin who couldn't go on missions.
"No, I'm not tired," Tsunade replied, brushing away the towel with a mix of coldness and indifference.
As Tsunade left the operating room, Kato Dan followed her closely. He firmly believed that with enough persistence, he could achieve anything he desired.
"Master Tsunade, Master Orochimaru invites you to participate in the pre war meeting," a Konoha Chunin reported as they approached her.
Tsunade raised an eyebrow lightly and responded indifferently, "Didn't I say I wouldn't participate in any battles? Has Orochimaru forgotten?"
Since the incident with the Senju clan, Tsunade had been exclusively performing medical tasks in the rear and had refrained from engaging in frontal war operations. Orochimaru, who was once her teammate and frontline commander, was well aware of this, and he had never summoned her to a war meeting.
"Master Orochimaru mentioned that he has a surprise prepared for you," the Konoha Shinobi explained in awe of Tsunade's presence.
"A surprise? What on earth is Orochimaru up to now?"
"I... I'm not sure. Tsunade-sama, you should go and see for yourself."
Tsunade pondered for a moment before heading toward the main camp in the center of the area, curious to find out what Orochimaru had planned.
If you dare to mess around, I'll pull out your tongue and tie a knot with it!
"Hey! Orochimaru, you—uh!"
Tsunade had just stepped inside the door when she was cut off before she could finish her sentence. It felt like her next words and fury were stuck in her throat.
She didn't even get a chance to see who the cowardly guy in front of her was, but a long-lost and familiar sensation rushed through her body as if it had never left.
Immediately, she sensed the rush of emotions like car lights being switched on, igniting her excitement once more.
Without hesitation, she lifted her foot and forcefully stomped on the back of her opponent's leg, causing him to wince in pain.
"You damn bastard! Do you really think I won't hit you!?"
"Can't you see what's going on here?"
"And my goodness, we've been broken up for ages, haven't we?"
Tatsuya seemed unaffected by the pain. After feeling that touch just now, he looked at his ex-girlfriend with satisfaction and said, "Well, it seems like you've been guarding yourself like a precious gem all these years."
The intensity and waves of her emotions hadn't changed at all.
As the man who had known Tsunade's body better than anyone, The legendary 106. It is even more Famous than likes Madara or Ninetails. If you are a man of culture you must know what these numbers mean. Neither too big nor too mid. Just pure Soft satisfaction.
"Go to hell, you jerk!"
Tsunade threw a punch at him, but if one paid close attention, they could notice a concealed smile at the corner of her lips.
"Enough, can't you stop?" Orochimaru, who stood behind Tatsuya, spoke faintly and then teased Tsunade, "How was that for a surprise?"
"Surprise? Scared me, more like it!"
Tsunade's anger hadn't completely subsided, but as she spoke, her lips couldn't help but curve slightly, forming a beautiful arc.
Back at the camp, Hatake Sakumo, Hyuga Hiashi, Hyuga Hizashi, Nara Shikaku, and the parents of the future Konoha 12 were all puzzled. This was the first time they had seen Tsunade smile since the Senju clan faced misfortune the year before.
"Didn't they break up a while ago?" Hatake Sakumo couldn't help but wonder, feeling a sense of admiration welling up within him.
Outside the main camp's gate in the rear, Kato Dan, who had witnessed the whole incident, stood there with wide eyes and dropped the towel he had been holding.
At that moment, he felt an indescribable feeling.
