At the border between Sunagakure and Amegakure, the Konoha camp.
A strong smell of blood mixed with the scent of herbs permeated the tent, and suppressed groans rose and fell.
Tsunade's golden hair on her forehead was soaked with sweat, sticking to her pale cheeks.
The Chakra scalpel in her hand precisely cut open the abdomen of an injured person.
Three poisoned senbon were deeply embedded in the organs, and the toxins had spread to the chest cavity.
"Forceps."
She reached out with a hoarse voice, and the Medical Students beside her immediately handed over the tool, but her fingers were trembling.
Tsunade did not scold her, but quickly clamped out the hidden weapon, and the healing light in her palm shone brightly.
"Intravenous injection of antitoxin serum, prepare for blood transfusion."
She ordered without raising her head, and the Medical Ninja beside her frantically searched the medicine box, the sound of glass bottles clinking particularly clear in the tent.
Outside the tent, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded, and the cloth curtain was abruptly pulled open.
"Lady Tsunade! The casualties on the front line are not optimistic, at least twenty seriously injured people are on their way!"
The messenger Ninja's face was covered in blood, and his voice trembled.
Tsunade's movements in stitching the wound did not stop at all.
"Prioritize the seriously injured."
Her voice was like a taut bowstring.
"Have all injured who can stand evacuate immediately."
Seeing no movement, Tsunade coldly shouted.
"What are you still standing there for? Go prepare tourniquets!"
Several Medical Ninja who reacted quickly went out to act.
New stretchers continuously poured in, and the narrow medical tent suddenly became overcrowded.
A Chunin who had lost his left arm suddenly grabbed Tsunade's clothes, blood foam overflowing from the corner of his mouth.
"Lady Tsunade, my... brother is still on the front line, I can't stop..."
Tsunade pressed on his torn artery, and a stream of faint green Chakra flowed into the wound.
"Only by returning alive can you see him."
Her voice was very soft, but it made the weeping injured around her quiet down.
The Medical Students in the corner suddenly broke down and cried, as the injured person she was responsible for had just stopped breathing.
Tsunade strode over, her blood-stained hand pressing heavily on the student's shoulder.
"Tears can't save anyone."
She pulled a white cloth over the deceased's face.
The latest injured person sent in was wearing a Konoha Ninja vest, with three puppet steel blades stuck in his back.
This physique seemed somewhat similar to Chiye's...
"Chiye?"
The name was almost squeezed out from between her teeth.
She rushed to the stretcher, and when she looked at his face, she froze for a moment.
It wasn't Chiye.
Tsunade closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she had recovered her composure.
"Prepare for surgery, prioritize those with penetrating wounds."
Just then.
Outside the tent, the sound of puppet gears suddenly grew closer.
"Enemy attack!"
An urgent shout rang out from outside the tent.
Tsunade was unmoved, her fingers stitching the wound remained as steady as a rock.
When the thirteenth injured person was out of danger, the tent suddenly shook violently.
Sunagakure's poisonous smoke seeped in through the cracks, and some students began to cough violently.
"Take the mobile injured and evacuate through the back door."
She reacted quickly, smashing a fist into the ground, and spiderweb-like cracks spread outside the tent, followed by the screams of the Sunagakure Ninja who had just infiltrated.
She turned back, her expression solemn.
"Evacuate quickly!"
"You are Medical Ninja, no matter what method you use, you must survive, this is an order!"
The flames of the medical camp dyed the sky blood-red, and poisonous smoke permeated the air, its pungent smell suffocating.
Sunagakure's puppet army surged like a tide, their wooden joints emitting eerie clicking sounds, and poisoned hidden weapons gleamed with a faint blue light under the moonlight.
"Damn it!"
Tsunade kicked over the puppet charging at the front, shattered wooden pieces flew, but more puppets were still approaching.
She glanced back, the injured were being helped to evacuate by the Medical Students.
But the speed was too slow, if this continued, everyone would be surrounded!
"Lady Tsunade! We've been cut off!"
A Medical Students shouted in horror.
Tsunade gritted her teeth, a hint of determination flashing in her bright brown pupils.
She bit her thumb sharply, quickly formed hand signs, and then slammed her palm onto the ground.
"Summoning Technique!"
The ground trembled, dust rose, and a giant white figure rose from the earth, blocking everyone's path like a mountain.
Katsuyu, Lady Tsunade's Summoning Beast.
Its soft yet resilient body appeared exceptionally striking on the battlefield.
"Lady Tsunade, the situation seems rather grim."
Katsuyu's gentle voice sounded, its presence caused Sunagakure's puppet army to suddenly halt, and even the puppeteers showed signs of fear.
"Katsuyu, protect them for me!"
Tsunade shouted sternly, Chakra boiling around her.
"Understood."
Katsuyu's body rapidly split, countless small clones crawled towards the injured and Medical Students, enveloping them in its soft body, isolating them from poisonous smoke and hidden weapon attacks.
Tsunade stood alone at the very front, her fists clenched, the ground cracking beneath her feet.
She coldly watched Sunagakure's puppets.
The next second, her figure shot out like a cannonball, punching towards the puppet crowd!
Bang!!!
Terrifying monstrous strength erupted, dozens of puppets were instantly shattered, Sunagakure's Ninja retreated in horror, but Tsunade gave them no chance to breathe.
She grabbed the head of a puppet with one hand and slammed it to the ground, the shockwave sending all surrounding enemies flying!
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
A Sunagakure commander finally realized that they were facing not just one of the Sannin, Lady Tsunade, but an enraged beast!
However, Tsunade would not give them a chance.
"Since you've come, don't even think about leaving!"
Her figure flickered across the battlefield, each punch carrying destructive power, and the wreckage of puppets piled up like mountains behind her.
Katsuyu's clones, meanwhile, firmly protected everyone in the medical camp, ensuring no one else was harmed.
When the last puppeteer fell, Tsunade stood amidst the ruins, panting heavily.
She looked back at those protected by Katsuyu, and after confirming no casualties, her taut nerves finally relaxed slightly.
"Lady Tsunade..."
The Medical Students looked at her in awe, their eyes filled with reverence.
She let out a long sigh; even a member of the Senju Clan like her couldn't withstand such continuous exertion.
Tsunade wiped the blood from her face and was about to pick up the medical kit from a distance.
"I didn't expect the leader to be the Princess of the Senju Clan, what a surprise."
A powerful voice suddenly came from afar.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, their hearts trembling.
Beside the middle-aged man leading them, Ninja appeared one after another in their sight.
Then, on the surrounding mountains, a large number of Ninja appeared.
Everyone's spirits sank to rock bottom.
Just one day ago, Sakumo Hatake received news and led everyone to raid the Sunagakure forces.
Now in the camp, only Lady Tsunade's medical team and dozens of combat Ninja remained...
Facing this Sunagakure force of at least three to four hundred people, they had become completely trapped.
"Princess Tsunade, you might as well surrender!"
The middle-aged man leading them looked at Tsunade, his eyes full of confidence.
