Naruto: I, the villain template, was hailed as a savior.

Chapter 137 Tsunade, Go Become Hokage! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Mito never considered herself a coward.

But when she stood at the window of the ward and looked out, she felt as if she were standing on the edge of a cliff.

The villagers, filled with malice, transformed into layers of twisted black shadows, lurking below like moist slime.

As they surge and flow, they are stretched into thin black threads between separation and union, then fold together to weave a dense net that swallows the sunlight shining down the cliff, turning it into a bottomless, dark abyss.

"vomit!"

Mito couldn't bear the fear for even a second, so she covered her mouth and ran to the bathroom to vomit uncontrollably.

However, after being in a coma for several days without eating and only receiving glucose infusions to ensure basic nutrition, she could only vomit a little bit of residue, followed by clear gastric juice mixed with pale yellow bile.

"Ahem!"

Mito instinctively turned on the tap as she placed her hand on the sink, but seeing the residue of vomit being sucked into the sink by the swirling water, her body, which had calmed down considerably, began to tremble slightly again.

She seemed to see a tiny fragment reaching out its arm to cry for help, but it was swallowed up by the dark void. It felt as if she, or a part of herself, was being swept into the unknown darkness.

"Grandma Mito." Seeing Mito looking like she was about to vomit, Tsunade, who had followed her in, was at a loss like a child and could only reach out to support Mito and try to pat her back.

But the next moment, Mito, with her eyes closed, waved her hand and pushed her away.

"Huff!" Her chest heaved violently, and she shook her head wearily.

"Are you really alright..." Just as Tsunade was about to ask anxiously, a gentle and warm voice came from behind her.

"Miss Tsunade, please don't worry too much. Lady Mito has just overused her chakra and is still traumatized by fear. She'll be fine after a period of recovery and adjustment."

Tsunade subconsciously turned her head to look at the location of the hospital bed behind her, only to find that there were two other people in the ward whom she had ignored.

One of them was a face she recognized, the girl from the Uzumaki clan she had brought from the Land of Whirlpools, who stood beside the hospital bed with a face full of confusion and worry.

The other was a face she didn't recognize: a young woman wearing round-framed glasses and a white lab coat, with a gentle smile on her face.

And the one who just spoke was that woman.

"Who are you?" Tsunade frowned and stared at her coldly.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Pharmacist, and I am a psychologist."

Meeting Tsunade's slightly scrutinizing and hostile gaze, Yakushi explained softly with an unchanged smile, "Please rest assured, I am only responsible for treating Lady Mito; I don't care about anything else."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade was taken aback for a moment. Mito, standing beside her, said in a slightly weak voice, "Tsunade, please don't be rude. I was able to wake up and Kushina was able to come in all thanks to Yakushi-san."

"You flatter me, Lady Mito. It is my duty," the pharmacist said humbly. "Although the Third Hokage did give me instructions, as a qualified psychologist, maintaining the well-being of my patients is my top priority."

Listening to their conversation, the hostility in Tsunade's eyes dissipated, replaced by worry for Mito.

"Time is limited, so let's skip the small talk."

Mito took a deep breath, placed his hand on Tsunade's arm, and pulled her back to sit on the hospital bed. His no longer bright, cloudy eyes looked at her and he said, "I called you here because I have something to give you."

As she spoke, she took out a normal-sized scroll from her bosom and then took the large scroll that Kushina was holding in her arms.

"I was planning to give it to you later."

She ran her withered hands along the rough surface, a complex look flashing in her lowered eyes, and said, "This large scroll was left behind by your grandfather after he passed away. It's a scroll that can form a contract with the 'Living Slug' of the Wet Bone Forest."

"The other scroll contains most of the sealing techniques of my Uzumaki clan, as well as the 'Yin Seal' which is a refinement based on your concept."

After saying that, she looked up at Tsunade, who had a dazed expression, and smiled, "By signing this contract scroll, you can enter Shikkotsu Forest, one of the three holy lands, and establish a spiritual connection with 'Live Slug.' She might be able to heal your arm injury."

"Yin Seal" was a concept first proposed by Tsunade based on her medical ninjutsu skills. Mito combined the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan to perfect an S-rank medical sealing technique.

Normally, not all humans possess chakra.

The 130 trillion cells in the body produce spiritual energy and physical energy, while chakra is the result of mixing these two elements in a certain proportion to refine chakra and perform nature and form changes to create ninjutsu.

In other words, under normal circumstances, a ninja needs to temporarily extract chakra in order to use ninjutsu, because most ninjas' bodies cannot store chakra.

The reason why battles between ninjas still involve weapons like kunai and shuriken, instead of turning into a fight of fire and water, is because of the limitation of refining chakra.

Although the maximum amount of chakra that each person can hold is different, this is just the "upper limit." Unless a large-scale battle is prepared in advance, most ninjas will never reach the upper limit in normal times.

Not everyone is like Itachi Uchiha, giving his younger brother time to prepare an S-rank ultimate move.

Normally, before you've even refined enough chakra to unleash an S-rank ninjutsu, the enemy will have already used Body Flicker Technique to rush up and stab you to death with a kunai.

If chakra cannot be stored, there are only two possibilities when the two sides meet.

The first scenario is that both sides had been refining their chakra before they met, and had already prepared the amount of chakra needed to unleash their ninjutsu.

When the two sides meet, if the enemy's chakra reserves are enough to support him to use ten ninjutsu of the same power, while your chakra reserves are only enough to support you to use seven ninjutsu of the same power, then you are at a disadvantage.

Only at this point will the outcome be determined by the maximum chakra reserves of both sides.

The second scenario is that both sides, in order to conserve their physical strength and energy for a surprise attack, did not begin refining their chakra before encountering each other.

When the two sides meet, if the enemy unleashes a Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique in an instant, while you unleash a Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique in an instant, then you will have the advantage.

Therefore, when the gods were fighting in the later stages, Naruto and Sasuke, who had obtained the power of Yang Release and Yin Release respectively, had a final battle at the Valley of the End.

The former forcefully drained the natural energy from the earth, while the latter controlled eight half-tailed beasts to extract their chakra.

In some ways, the Yin Seal is similar to it, as both are external sources of chakra, just like the Tailed Beasts.

It involves accumulating chakra in the forehead during normal times, while simultaneously forming a diamond-shaped Hundred Healings Seal on the forehead.

When needed, the seal can be released by using the "Yin Seal Release" ninjutsu to unleash a large amount of chakra, achieving instant healing, enhanced attack, and increased speed.

The "Yin Seal" technique requires extremely high chakra control, and only those with superhuman strength, such as Mito Uzumaki and Tsunade, can learn it.

When one can master and utilize this skillfully, one can achieve the effects of preserving youth, improving bodily functions, and maintaining bodily functions at their peak through low-output and micro-adjustment of chakra.

Mito hadn't given these two items to Tsunade before, partly because the "Yin Seal" technique wasn't perfected yet, and partly because he didn't want her to go to the battlefield.

But now...

"Tsunade." Mito gently patted Tsunade's head and whispered, "Go and become Hokage."
