Chapter 17: **Chapter 17: First Arrived at the Front Line, Experience Paradise!**
At noon two days later, we arrived at the frontline station.
"Tsunade, you're back!"
"Why, I heard that you beat up Danzo-sama's subordinates and destroyed the Root Organization's base when you returned?" A feminine voice chimed in.
That's right—it was Orochimaru.
"Reiki, this is Orochimaru. He's the current commander-in-chief, so you should listen to him regarding most arrangements in the future. As for daily matters, try to have less contact with him. This guy is a bit... perverted," Tsunade said bluntly.
"Ah."
"Lord Orochimaru, I am Master Tsunade's disciple, Reiki. Please take good care of me in the future," Reiki greeted with a smile. After all, Orochimaru was Tsunade's companion, and he hadn't yet rebelled against the village, so the customary politeness was still important.
"Tsunade's disciple? Not bad," Orochimaru replied. "Okay, the medical team is already busy now. That guy Chiyo's poison is indeed quite troublesome."
On the battlefield, Orochimaru was primarily responsible for combat and overall command, while Tsunade managed medical care and logistics in the rear. Their cooperation was crucial.
"Good," Tsunade said, without further ado, as she took Reiki to the location of the medical team.
"Reiki?" Orochimaru mused to himself. "If both Danzo and Tsunade are interested in him, he must be a promising young talent."
Reiki felt Orochimaru's gaze and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Sure enough, being too talented meant attracting unwanted attention. If it weren't for Tsunade's support, he might have ended up on a lab table by now.
Arriving at the medical team's station, Reiki was stunned. All around him were festering wounds, broken limbs, and severely injured bodies.
Is this... a battlefield?
Before the system's notification had even finished speaking, Reiki rushed to the side of a wounded patient and began treating the injury.
"Tsunade-sama, this is...?"
A medical ninja looked at Reiki curiously.
"My disciple, Reiki. He'll be fighting alongside us in the future," Tsunade introduced briefly before starting her own treatment.
At first, the medical staff thought Reiki was too young to withstand the pressure of the battlefield, assuming he was just Tsunade's disciple there to gain experience. But soon, they changed their minds. Not only was Reiki precise in his approach to treating injuries, but his efficiency was also impressive. He was able to keep pace with the intermediate medical ninjas, and it hardly resembled a beginner's treatment.
"Tsunade-sama said that Reiki was already familiar with the treatment process when he was at the village hospital. This kid's serious demeanor is commendable. He will definitely be an excellent medical ninja in the future."
"I feel like he's already an excellent medical ninja now."
Just over an hour later, Reiki was recognized by everyone. It's quite rare for a child to achieve this level of competence.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host. You have completed basic treatment, gained body +4, and solid chakra +23."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host. You completed basic treatment, gained body +2, and solid chakra +19."
At this moment, Reiki was completely immersed in the wonderful notifications from the system. There are two types of treatment for injuries. First, basic treatment can also be understood as emergency treatment, which grants small rewards. Since it doesn't consume much chakra, Reiki could continue treating more ninjas.
"Everyone should follow Reiki's treatment method and perform emergency treatment first. Once lives are saved, we can begin more in-depth treatment afterward," Tsunade instructed, having noticed Reiki's effective approach. Previously, there had never been enough medical ninjas, resulting in many dying from serious injuries before receiving care. Reiki's method could better ensure the survival rate of injured patients.
"Understood, Tsunade-sama."
The team began to follow Reiki's treatment methods. In just half a day, all the injured patients had received emergency care, and most medical ninjas still had plenty of physical strength and chakra left.
"Little Reiki, that's really impressive!"
"Yeah, now I see why he can be Master Tsunade's disciple."
"Next, it's time to truly test our skills. Let's get started!"
A group of medical ninjas chatted about Reiki while treating patients. Soon, word spread throughout the frontline that a young genius had joined the medical ninja ranks. This news undoubtedly boosted the morale of Konoha's ninjas.
That night, inside the camp, Orochimaru gathered the other team members, and of course, Tsunade had brought Reiki along.
"Currently, the offensive from Sunagakure Village is still quite intense. Due to her personal emotions, Chiyo, as the commander-in-chief, is unlikely to evacuate easily. It's expected that we'll have to hold out for quite a while," Orochimaru said, pointing to their fighting position.
One significant issue in fighting Sunagakure was the abundance of puppet masters and poison users on the opposing side, creating considerable strain for Konoha.
"On the frontal battlefield, there are no immediate problems. The main concern is... if this consumption continues, we may struggle if other battlefields cannot provide support. If it weren't for Hatake Sakumo's mission failure, we would have returned to the village by now," Sarutobi Shino added, visibly dissatisfied. In his opinion, Hatake Sakumo was to blame for the mission's failure, though he didn't know the specifics and didn't want to.
"Right, if..." Sarutobi Shino continued, "wouldn't it be better to have medical ninjas follow us to the front line?"
At that moment, a childish voice piped up from the corner.
"Medical ninjas? Where did this kid come from, being so naïve?" Sarutobi Shino laughed.
"Naïve? Based on what I've learned today, many ninjas have injuries that aren't serious. The real reason they had to be sent to the hospital was due to infections that worsened their conditions. If there are medical ninjas in the team, they can receive immediate treatment during battle. Besides, medical ninjas aren't weak, you know? You can't underestimate my teacher!" Reiki proudly stepped up next to Tsunade.
Hearing Reiki's words, Sarutobi Shino wanted to argue but fell silent when he saw Reiki standing next to Tsunade. He was left speechless, almost choking on his own words.
"Okay, Reiki, don't cause trouble. Most medical ninjas aren't skilled in combat. Their primary role is to stay behind to ensure medical support." While Tsunade truly wished to see the Sarutobi clan under attack, she knew that was the reality of the situation.
