Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Promotion to Medical Corps Leader

"Yakushi Yu, now, in my capacity as the Third Hokage of Konoha..."

"I officially promote you to Jonin, as well as Leader of Konoha's Medical Corps!"

In the spacious Hokage office, looking at the calm white-haired youth before him, Lord Third solemnly announced.

In addition to him, Mitokado Homura, Utatane Koharu, and Shimura Danzo, three Konoha Elders, were also present in the office.

"Leader of the Medical Corps?!"

As Lord Third's words fell, a hint of surprise appeared on Yu's face.

He didn't expect the old man Lord Third to value him so much, not only promoting him to Jonin but also appointing him as the leader of Konoha's Medical Corps.

This was not an ordinary position. At least in Konoha's system, it was on par with the position of the head of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku, the captain of the Konoha Police Force. It was a position with enormous practical power, and in the future, he would definitely have the qualifications to enter the highest decision-making levels of Konoha.

'This is the intention to train and support me for promotion, but unfortunately, I may not become the person you envision... 'Feeling Lord Third's sincere intentions towards him, Yu couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart.

"Jonin at the age of eight..."

"Although it's a wartime situation, this is still too unbelievable."

Upon hearing Lord Third's decision, Mitokado Homura, standing beside him, couldn't help but mutter.

You should know that even Hatake Kakashi, renowned as a genius in Konoha, only became a Jonin at the age of twelve. Yet here with Yu, the age difference has been stretched to four years.

"Your foster mother, Yakushi Nono, was once the leader of the Medical Corps..."

"Now it's passed down to you, hoping you won't disappoint our expectations."

Looking at Yu, who became a Jonin and the leader of the Konoha Medical Corps at the age of eight, Utatane Koharu beside him also sighed.

Faced with Lord Third's decision this time, the three Konoha Elders unusually did not raise objections. Whether in terms of strength or the contributions made to Konoha in the matter of the Medical Seal, Yu left them with no room for rebuttal.

Only Danzo, sitting silently in the corner, looked at Yu with increasingly wary eyes.

As anticipated earlier, with Yu's rapid rise in power and status, Danzo felt an intangible pressure. Now, those Ninja under his command who constantly monitored the Konoha orphanage not only couldn't recklessly harm those children but also had to protect them in turn.

Otherwise, if anything happened to those children, Yu could easily hold him and Root accountable. In that case, he would have no place to argue.

"Since the deployment of the Medical Seal on the battlefield, the casualty rate among frontline Ninja has sharply decreased."

"Yu, this time you have indeed made outstanding contributions to Konoha."

After promoting Yu to Jonin and the leader of the Konoha Medical Corps, Lord Third, looking at the composed Yu before him, showed an increasingly appreciative gaze.

"And Minato on the frontline successfully cut off the supply lines of the Iwa Ninja. This time, we can finally catch our breath a bit."

"But the Iwa Ninja and Cloud Ninja are still constantly deploying more forces onto the battlefield."

However, soon, Lord Third changed the topic and directly issued new mission orders to Yu with a serious tone, "So, Yu, go back and prepare. Set out with the Medical Corps to support the frontline Ninja early tomorrow morning!"

"Yes!"

Facing Lord Third's command, Yu responded almost without hesitation.

Casting a casual glance at Danzo beside him, his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

"This war has dragged on long enough..."

"The perennial conflict has caused heavy losses to all five great nations, and it's time for it to come to an end."

After Yu left, the spacious Hokage office fell into silence.

Gazing at the evening sky outside the window in Konoha, Lord Third let out a sigh.

...

"Since I've come this far... why not go inside and take a look?"

As the sun set in the west, the entire sky over Konoha was dyed red by the twilight. Yu stood on a high ground, his gaze sweeping over the distant orphanage cabins. Behind him, a sound like silver bells resonated, touching the strings of his heart.

Even without turning around, Yu's Observation Haki sensed the person behind him. With purple long hair and bright eyes, it was Uzuki Yugao, whom he hadn't seen for some time.

"We're departing tomorrow..."

"When I leave, I'll have to say goodbye to them once again, as if we'll never meet."

Without looking up at Yugao, who had walked up beside him, Yu's gaze dimmed slightly at her words. Since Nono was sent by Danzo to carry out a mission in the Iwa village, he rarely returned to the orphanage.

"Speaking of that..."

"I've heard about it. Are you really being sent to the frontline, Yu?"

As she spoke, Yugao's tone couldn't help but carry a sense of urgency. Although she hadn't personally experienced war, as a Ninja, she could somewhat understand the cruelty of the battlefield.

Seeing the young man she admired about to be sent to the battlefield at such a young age, how could her emotions possibly calm down?

"As Ninjas, this is our destiny."

"Don't worry, Yugao. I'll take care of myself."

Retracting his gaze, Yu comforted the charming girl in front of him. "And this time, I'm just leading medical Ninjas to the frontline for rear support work, so there shouldn't be too much danger."

"But this mission might take a while..."

Before Yu could finish his sentence, a gentle breeze passed by, and two fragrant lips pressed onto his cheek.

Did she just... kiss me?

Feeling the electrifying sensation on his cheek, Yu widened his eyes in astonishment. Although it was just a light kiss on the cheek, Yugao's bold move left his mind completely blank.

After an unknown amount of time passed, the two finally separated, their hearts pounding like wild deers.

"You must come back safely..."

"No matter how long it takes, I'll be here waiting for you."

Feeling the young man's surprised gaze, Yugao's cheeks turned red, her heart racing, but her gaze remained firm.

"Yugao..."

Understanding the girl's gaze, Yu couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart.

Since crossing into this world, he never thought he would have emotional ties with anyone. But now, it seems that besides Nono and the companions in the orphanage, in this small village, he has found someone else worth caring about.

Gazing at the girl in front of him, time seemed to freeze for a moment.

As the sun set in the west, the beauty was flawless.

...

Early the next day, at the entrance of the Konoha Ninja Village.

Yu, now promoted to Jonin and the leader of the Medical Corps, stood behind over twenty medical Ninjas lined up in formation.

"Are you ready?!"

Seeing that all the Ninjas were assembled, Yu shouted in a commanding tone.

"Ready!!"

Hearing Yu's words, the over twenty Ninjas behind him responded in unison.

Although surprisingly young, they didn't raise any objections to the fact that Yu had become the leader of the Medical Corps. Whether it was his exceptional Medical Ninjutsu skills or groundbreaking achievements like the Medical Seal, Yu had completely won over this group of medical Ninjas.

"Alright, let's go!"
