After Tenten revealed the answer, an awkward silence fell over the crowd.
Confused, people began whispering among themselves.
"What is this? It sounds really expensive!"
"The name's too long—I'm not listening!"
"Tenten Boss, can your scrolls explode?"
Although Lord Seiki had worked with Sakura and Sai to develop medical scrolls, they had only collaborated for fifteen days. After arriving in this world, they'd been running around nonstop and hadn't had time to properly introduce medical scrolls to the world!
Tenten waved her hands in disdain. "Why does everyone always think about explosions? Healing is way more important than that!"
"Healing? But we already have Blood Increasing Pills!"
Tenten put her hands on her hips. "Can Blood Increasing Pills really compare to true Medical Ninjutsu? Can they compare to the Medical Ninjutsu of the greatest Medical Ninja who saved Konoha and rained healing from the sky?"
Hearing mention of that person, everyone's eyes lit up, their breathing quickening.
This was the Medical Ninja even Tsunade-sama had acknowledged as superior!
Many of them had been pulled back from death's door with ruptured organs!
Thinking of that, the crowd quickly asked, "So does this scroll equate to that Medical Ninja's techniques?"
"Exactly!" Tenten nodded proudly before adding, "But only the Supreme Premium Edition is hers. Tsunade-sama's is the Deluxe Premium Edition, while her disciples and some well-known medical ninja have the VIP Edition. Finally, there's the Standard Edition..."
Before she could finish, the crowd erupted in shouts.
"Give me ten Supreme Premium Editions!"
"I want twenty Supreme Editions!"
Seeing the surge of people, Tenten had no time to savor her pride. Sweating profusely, she tried reasoning, "You don't all need to buy the Supreme Edition. Regular Genin and Chunin can get by fine with the Standard Edition. If you don't participate in high-level battles, using the Supreme Edition is basically a waste, and it's much more expensive than the others!"
However, her reasoning did nothing to cool their enthusiasm.
To them, these were no longer mere scrolls—they were lifelines!
In other ninja villages, this wouldn't have caused such a frenzy, but for the Konoha ninja who had recently experienced devastation and were saved by Lord Seiki, that person was the ultimate authority, revered above all. Naturally, they wouldn't even consider other versions!
Someone in the crowd suddenly asked, "Why haven't we seen these medical scrolls before?"
Tenten instinctively replied, "They were developed by Lord Seiki, so of course they weren't around before..."
As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized her mistake. Combining "greatest medical ninja" with "developer" was way too provocative!
Sure enough, the people in front practically turned green with envy!
"Wait, everyone, don't get too excited..." Tenten made a final attempt to calm them down.
Then, she was completely engulfed by the crowd!
...
Konoha Hospital.
Sakura was fully focused, working overtime to create medical scrolls.
"Sakura, Sakura..."
Recognizing Tenten's voice, Sakura didn't even glance up. "Tenten, can't you see I'm busy?"
"Sakura, please give me one Supreme Premium Edition medical scroll!"
"You're already hauling a cart full of medical scrolls. Why are you asking me for more?"
Tenten sheepishly replied, "This time it's for my own use!"
"Your own use?" Sakura paused her work and turned around in confusion. Then she saw Tenten, covered in shoe prints, standing behind her, and couldn't help but cry out in shock, "Ah! What happened to you? Did Akatsuki attack again?"
Tenten burst into tears, "It was customers! Those customers were so brutal!"
Sakura gave a half-smile, "Guess they really were brutal!"
Tenten looked pitiful, "Since I'm so pitiful, can you give me a bigger share tomorrow?"
Sakura shook her head, half annoyed, half amused, "Let me guess—you didn't even wash your face. So this is all just to get special treatment from me!"
Tenten declared confidently, "This totally counts as a work-related injury!"
Sakura helplessly rubbed her forehead, "Why'd you buy so much? You're not broke, are you?"
"Of course I am!" Tenten glared with resentment, "Your combat spending is nothing more than a few shuriken and Kunai, maybe a couple Explosive Tags at most! But me? One battle can bankrupt an average middle-class family!"
Sakura grimaced slightly, "Can't you try a more cost-effective fighting style? It would be good training for you!"
"No way!" Tenten firmly refused, "I earned my money through hard work, so why should I train?"
Sakura was at a loss for words—just then, someone from Sunagakure (the Village Hidden in the Sand) came to her rescue.
Temari appeared at the doorway, quickly rushing forward, "Sakura, Tenten… uh, did someone beat you up?"
"I…"
"Don't worry about Tenten right now!" Sakura quickly interrupted, "Temari, you're supposed to be preparing for war in Sunagakure. What are you doing here in Konoha?"
"You still dare to ask?" Temari complained, "Our two villages have been allies even before forming the Allied Ninja Forces. How come you didn't share something good with us!"
"You mean the medical scrolls?"
"Yeah!"
"Your intelligence network is indeed something else!" Sakura joked, then helplessly said, "But we don't even have enough medical scrolls for ourselves. We must prioritize supplying our own village's ninja first!"
"I totally understand that, so…" Temari clasped her hands together, looking pleadingly, "Can you at least tell us how to make medical scrolls?"
Sakura hesitated, "I can't really decide about the medical scrolls because they were taught to us by my senior."
"Is that so?" Temari's face revealed a reverent expression. Having served as a guard during the *Kage Summit*, she naturally knew about the great achievements of Lord Seiki!
As for the hero who had ended the war and changed the era single-handedly, of course she held the utmost respect for them!
"Sakura, please help me meet Lord Seiki. I'll ask him in person!" Temari solemnly said.
"Alright! Follow me!" Sakura led Temari forward a few steps after leaving the room, arriving at Seiki's temporary office.
"Senior, the special envoy from Sunagakure, Temari, wishes to see you."
"Come in."
The two walked in. Inside the room, scrolls were stacked into mountainous piles!
Lord Seiki almost grabbed a blank scroll, and in the next moment, instantly completed a Medical Scroll Creation without any pause in between!
Temari watched with wide eyes; this level of efficiency was just too exaggerated!
It was like a humanoid money-making machine!
Sakura watched with aching heart in her eyes and pleaded, "Senior apprentice, please take a rest too. Even if your power is strong, working at this intensity won't be easy to endure!"
Lord Seiki never stopped working with his hands; his smile was warm like sunlight. "The more scrolls I produce, the more lives we might save. A little fatigue is worth it!"
Temari felt moved, her admiration almost visible in her eyes. She knew Lord Seiki wasn't putting on a show; the mountain of scrolls nearby was the best proof!
Besides, she didn't believe someone as powerful as Lord Seiki needed to show off for her sake!
Furthermore, this tireless work ethic reminded her of her father, the Kazekage—who was technically a ruler but in reality just a working stiff!
"Temari, Temari..." Sakura whispered gently to remind her.
Snapping out of her thoughts, Temari quickly said, "Lord Seiki, I hope you can teach us the method of creating medical scrolls. For this, we're willing to pay any price!"
"There's no nee..." Lord Seiki began, but suddenly paused, eyes slightly narrowing. "Something interesting seems to have happened to my original body!"
