A military camp for the Hidden Leaf Village's garrison, on the border of the Land of Rain.
Outside the tents, the constant drizzle made the humid air feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Hey, hey, you little Uchiha brat, you can't save the shinobi world with medicine."
Inside the tent, Tsunade, the logistics commander of the Land of Rain battlefield, had a rare playful look on her usually sharp and heroic face.
Uchiha Yoru, a young shinobi with a Hidden Leaf headband, had a look of determination.
"Captain Tsunade, for the sake of the Hidden Leaf Village and the Will of Fire!"
Uchiha Yoru spoke with conviction, but in Tsunade's eyes, this scene was met with disdain. Just as I thought, an Uchiha. So fanatical!
He's just a kid who's been brainwashed by the Will of Fire.
Uchiha Yoru, a contemporary of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, was a top-three graduate of his class and was assigned to Tsunade's command during the Second Shinobi World War.
"Alright, alright, you fanatical Uchiha brat. If it's for the Hidden Leaf, then how's your logistical supplies report coming along? And how's your Mystical Palm Jutsu training?"
Tsunade's teasing left the young Uchiha Yoru feeling a bit embarrassed, and his voice softened.
"Captain Tsunade, I haven't completed my Mystical Palm training yet, but the logistics report is ready."
The young and handsome Uchiha Yoru looked like he was dedicated to helping Tsunade with the supply data.
Seeing this, Tsunade smiled in relief. Although this Uchiha kid wasn't particularly strong, his work ability was quite good.
He had taken over almost all of the logistics report work, so she just had to review it in the end. It cut her workload in half.
Tsunade, who was lazily enjoying a rare moment of peace, had a serious expression mixed in with her relaxed one.
The current situation seemed far from optimistic.
As she seriously read the report, her eyes swept over the Uchiha kid. He really is smart, no surprise since he graduated first in the written exams.
And while Uchiha Yoru looked like a simple, Will of Fire fanatic, he was secretly sneering.
The most skilled hunter often appears in the form of their prey!
"By the way, Captain Tsunade!"
After a short while, Uchiha Yoru finished the logistics report, and a hesitant look appeared on his face.
Tsunade was in her prime, and she looked at him with interest, her bright blonde hair shining and a teasing smile on her face.
"What is it, kid? As long as you're obedient, this captain will make sure you're safe on the battlefield."
Looking at her impressive "headlights," Uchiha Yoru feigned a hesitant expression. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said one name.
"A clan elder!"
Instantly, the smile on Tsunade's face froze. Uchiha Yoru, pretending to be forced into it, said in a deep voice:
"This matter concerns an Uchiha elder!"
An Uchiha clan elder!
There was only one: Elder Uchiha Setsuna! This person was not simple, and was even recorded in the original manga.
He was a hawk-type Uchiha who inherited the will of Madara Uchiha. During the Second Hokage's reign, he incited the clan to rebel and was eventually arrested by the Anbu and locked up in prison.
If the Second Hokage hadn't died so suddenly and the war hadn't started, the village needing the Uchiha's power, this elder would never have been released.
"Kid!"
Tsunade's expression turned serious as she looked at Uchiha Yoru and said in a heavy voice:
"You should know this is a dangerous person!"
In the face of Tsunade's questioning, Uchiha Yoru nodded with firm conviction.
"Captain Tsunade, I know, but the elder secretly gave me a scroll, saying that this matter concerns the survival of the clan and that I must give it to you."
At this point, Uchiha Yoru's expression became even more determined as he slowly took a green scroll from his ninja pouch and offered it with both hands.
"Captain Tsunade, for the sake of the village, if this scroll is a problem, the genin Uchiha Yoru is willing to bear all responsibility!"
At this moment, Uchiha Yoru was nothing more than an Uchiha who cared deeply about the Hidden Leaf Village and was brainwashed by the Will of Fire.
Seeing this, Tsunade secretly nodded.
At the very least, this kid had been under her watch for over a year now. He was commendable. Although he had some brains, his dedication to the village was on par with her own younger brother.
"Alright."
After Tsunade took the scroll, a flash of light gleamed in Uchiha Yoru's downcast eyes.
He had been in this world for twelve years. Although the Uchiha surname was isolated and unpopular in the village, it was still a prestigious clan.
The Hidden Leaf Village was founded by the Senju and Uchiha. The Senju had been Hokage for two rounds; it was finally their turn.
As a result, the Uchiha ended up in a worse position than the dog-wielding (Inuzuka) clan. Damn it!
The Uchiha were already isolated and eventually annihilated before he came to this world. If he came and they were still isolated and annihilated, wouldn't his arrival have been pointless?
He was a former sales champion from Myanmar, who specialized in the Japanese market for three consecutive years. How could he endure such humiliation
!
Especially with this world's power to destroy everything, and being in this Japanese-inspired setting, how could he be content to live a mediocre life under others!
"This is..."
When Tsunade opened the scroll and saw its contents, her face grew darker and darker. Finally, she looked up furiously, glaring at Uchiha Yoru.
This kid she had thought was decent had actually brought her such an evil scroll!
"Captain Tsunade!"
In the face of Tsunade's fury, Uchiha Yoru lowered his head and revealed a determined look.
"Hidden Leaf shinobi Uchiha Yoru is willing to accept any punishment!"
However, Tsunade took a deep breath and quickly suppressed the anger in her heart, replacing it with calm.
Tsunade could become the future Fifth Hokage, so she was naturally not an ordinary shinobi with only fighting intelligence.
"Kid, aren't you curious?"
Tsunade sneered. Any good impression she had of this Uchiha kid seemed to have vanished at this moment.
Uchiha Yoru, however, revealed a determined expression and nodded, taking the scroll. When he saw the contents, his face instantly changed dramatically!
In the next moment!
Uchiha Yoru suddenly looked up, staring at Tsunade and exclaimed excitedly: "Captain Tsunade, you absolutely cannot believe this!"
"Old man Setsuna is clearly up to no good, trying to sow discord between you and the village, that bastard!"
At this moment, Uchiha Yoru's face was full of murderous intent, as if he couldn't wait to kill the old man right then and there.
Seeing Uchiha Yoru's reaction, Tsunade secretly frowned, thinking that this kid was likely being used.
It made sense. Who would have thought that a fool brainwashed by the Will of Fire would bring her this kind of information on the front lines?
That old man probably used this to his advantage. But...
"Kid, no matter what, you must not reveal a single word of this information, or else...!"
Faced with Tsunade's threatening glare, Uchiha Yoru's expression was a mixture of grievance and anger. He then held back his anger and nodded firmly.
"I understand, Captain Tsunade. The shinobi world is at war right now; we absolutely cannot allow the village to be in turmoil."
Seeing Uchiha Yoru's extreme reaction, Tsunade secretly nodded, now convinced that this kid was truly being manipulated.
Uchiha Yoru, with a frustrated look on his face, secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Let the bullets fly for a while.
First, I'll give the Hidden Leaf Village a big gift!
