"Lord Danzo."
Coming out of the Hokage Office, a Root guard who had been waiting there for a long time immediately approached and called out respectfully.
"Have them make their move," Danzo said.
"Yes."
His guard was a young boy, but his demeanor was very steady.
He also seemed to know who Danzo was talking about.
Danzo's gaze showed no emotional fluctuations; there was only... decisiveness.
Any factor dangerous to the great tree that was Konoha had to be nipped in the bud.
Although it was a fact that Sarutobi had become the Hokage and his position was unshakable, Danzo wanted to prove to others that as a member of Konoha, his abilities were no weaker than Sarutobi's, and he was equally qualified to be the Hokage.
Even if... it was too late to say anything now.
Danzo knew the details of the great battle between Amegakure and Sunagakure at the border half a year ago very well.
Sunagakure was also an enemy of Konoha, and he paid attention to any movement they made.
During wartime, intelligence was extremely important.
Hanzou the Salamander sent people to convey wartime news to Konoha, hoping that the flames of war between Konoha and Sunagakure would burn more intensely... Danzo was well aware of Hanzou's little schemes, and the other party also knew that because of the existence of 'Root', Konoha would definitely receive the 'message'.
Two geniuses of Sunagakure.
One was Sasori, Chiyo's grandson.
The other was named Yubi... a descendant of Sunagakure's civilian Ninjas.
To be honest, with Sunagakure's current sudden increase in troop strength, those 'remnant forces' who had received medical treatment had boosted Sunagakure's morale for a short time, but looking at the entire war, the effect was actually quite limited.
Hanzou was a smart man and knew that with Konoha's foundation, they would emerge victorious in this great battle.
But the people of Sunagakure couldn't see that clearly.
They still wanted to fight to the death... it was simply foolish.
Initially... Danzo didn't take the two geniuses Hanzou mentioned to heart; he just made a note of them.
When the opportunity arose in the future, he would conveniently eliminate these two juniors.
But he didn't expect... these two, especially Yubi, who seemed somewhat inconspicuous compared to Sasori, a Medical Ninja, would actually reveal an extraordinary medical talent.
Yubi's 'threat' was actually quite limited, but even if there was only a slight possibility, Danzo would not'sit idly by'.
He would not allow any spark to endanger Konoha.
Moreover, he now needed to use this great war to prove that his decision-making and management of subordinates were not inferior to Sarutobi's.
Konoha could not do without him.
"Just a Medical Ninja... the intelligence Hanzou passed on was clearly processed. That guy... he's quite calculating. With Sunagakure's current focus and the way their higher-ups act, they would never expect such a thing to happen right under their noses..."
"Sometimes... the darkness right under one's nose is the most terrifying."
Danzo thought to himself.
The coldness in his eyes became more and more apparent... A few days later, Sunagakure, night.
Yubi returned home and lay on his bed.
Recently, the temporary changes at the hospital had gotten on the right track, and he, who had been busy, could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He summoned the system interface.
Host: Yubi.
Identity: Sunagakure Genin (Medical Ninja).
Age: 9 years old.
Current stored positive experience points (saving people): 13.
Stored negative experience points (killing people): 469.
Currently exchanged mall items and abilities: Kuroo's Medical Notes and Insights, Special scalpel (from black jack);
Yin Healing Destruction (A-rank Medical Ninjutsu: The user must correctly judge the location where they will be hit before receiving an opponent's attack and quickly concentrate a certain amount of Chakra at that location. After being hit, the wound will automatically recover.);
Mystical Palm Technique (A-rank Medical Ninjutsu: Fully activates the cells of the wound. Under normal circumstances, the wound can be healed in just a few minutes.);
Removal of Fine Filth Jutsu (B-rank Medical Ninjutsu: A highly skilled technique that can extract or transplant toxins and organs.);
Resurrection Life Reforming Technique (A-rank Medical Ninjutsu: A technique performed by several Medical Ninjas together, using the cells within the injured person's body to heal wounds. However, this technique requires a very long time and concentration, so they must take turns resting to replenish their physical strength.);
Chakra Scalpel (A-rank Ninjutsu: Concentrates Chakra in the hands to be used as a blade, allowing for internal cutting without external wounds and can be extended at will. It can be used as a weapon, provided one has a certain level of medical knowledge.);
Body Pathway Derangement (Converts Chakra into electricity to interfere with the brain's transmission of electrical waves to the body, making the victim unable to control their body normally.);
Attachment Line (Can attach silk threads to fixed targets to control flying knives for effective shooting.);
Death Waltz (The user can use their fingers to manipulate silk threads, performing assassination techniques that are difficult to detect. It can also be used to bind silk threads with flying knives for remote control.);
(This ability comes from the character Belphegor in Katekyo Hitman Reborn!)
"General Medical Ninjutsu are almost all exchanged... After this, if I exchange positive experience points again, it will be for S-rank Ninjutsu or forbidden-rank abilities," Yubi murmured.
Although the abilities he obtained from the system using experience points were not limited to this world.
But after all, they are Ninjutsu... the original power of this world, which could be useful in the future.
Therefore, Yubi spent all the positive experience points he had earned from previous missions at the border, as well as from saving people in the hospital over the past few months.
When he obtained his self-created Ninjutsu, Blade Intent Manipulation, he didn't spend a single positive experience point.
Now, on the contrary, his negative experience points... were far ahead.
The newly obtained Medical Ninjutsu were mainly four: Yin Healing Destruction, Removal of Fine Filth Jutsu, Resurrection Life Reforming Technique, and Body Pathway Derangement.
And if he had more capital next, he could exchange for some of Tsunade's ultimate techniques, mainly Creation Rebirth, the Hundred Seals Technique, and the Yin Seal.
As for the Bloodline Limit Dragon Life Reincarnation and Chiyo's One's Own Life Reincarnation, in Yubi's view, although these two techniques had powerful healing effects and could bring the dead back to life, the user would also die after performing them, making them somewhat useless and completely unnecessary to obtain.
Additionally, some of Tsunade's other Ninjutsu required the use of the summoning beast Katsuyu. If he were to exchange for them, he would need specific conditions, and even the summoning beast would have to be purchased with experience, which was too expensive and not cost-effective... Therefore, Yubi didn't plan to buy them in the future.
After learning techniques like Tsunade's Hundred Seals Technique, his acquisition of power sources from the Naruto world would be about finished.
By then, his Medical Ninjutsu configuration could already be called top-tier in the Ninja World.
Combined with his own abilities... Yubi felt it was perfect.
In comparison, using the same experience point purchasing power to obtain abilities from other worlds was not only more effective but also more cost-effective.
"However... the experience points obtained in the hospital, no matter how many people I save or how busy I am... the points given are pitifully few."
"For me, being on the battlefield is indeed the optimal solution."
Yubi murmured in a voice as faint as a mosquito.
The second step of his plan was almost complete.
His importance to the Village was self-evident.
He had also gained the favor of the villagers and won their hearts.
Especially with the contributions he made to the Village.
But... this was not enough.
This was the Ninja World, after all... sometimes, the influence of certain contributions was greater than military exploits.
But to shut people up, fundamentally... one still needed powerful strength.
Kage was not just a title.
It was also a symbol of one's own strength.
"When Sasori returns... I'll just go out of the Village on missions with him."
Yubi smiled.
That fellow Sasori thought he was slacking off in the Village, enjoying a comfortable life.
Little did he know... he was also secretly becoming stronger.
During this period, the system expenditures were a huge investment for Yubi.
The more he earned, the more he naturally spent.
This way of arming himself by'spending money' and tangibly feeling himself becoming stronger was quite nice.
Of course... this 'money' was also earned with his life.
