Naruto: Reshaping the Shinobi World with Sasori

Chapter 27 Secretly Arming Oneself

"Lord Danzo."

As soon as he came out of the Hokage's office, the Root guards who had been waiting there immediately came up to him and greeted him respectfully.

"Let them do it," Danzo said.

"Yes."

His bodyguard was a young boy, but he had a very calm demeanor.

They seemed to know who Danzo was referring to.

Danzo's gaze revealed no emotional fluctuations, only... resolve.

Any factor that poses a danger to the great tree of Konoha must be nipped in the bud.

Although it was a fact that Sarutobi had become Hokage and his position was unshakeable, Danzo wanted to prove to others that, as a member of Konoha, his abilities were no less than Sarutobi's, and that he was also qualified to become Hokage.

Even so... it's too late to say anything now.

Danzo knew very well about the great battle between Amegakure and Sunagakure at the border six months ago.

Sunagakure is also an enemy of Konoha, and he pays close attention to any movements made by the enemy.

Intelligence is extremely important during wartime.

Hanzo of the Salamander sent wartime messages to Konoha, hoping that the war between Konoha and Sunagakure would intensify... Danzo was well aware of Hanzo's little scheme, and Danzo also knew that Konoha would definitely receive the message because of the existence of 'Root'.

Two geniuses from Sunagakure.

One is Scorpion, Chiyo's grandson.

Another one is called Yubi... a descendant of a commoner ninja from Sunagakure.

To be honest, with the sudden increase in Sunagakure's forces, those "remnants" who received medical treatment did boost Sunagakure's morale for a short time, but in the long run, their effect was actually very limited.

Hanzo the Salamander was a smart man. He knew that with the strength of Konoha, they would win this great battle.

But the group from Sunagakure couldn't see it.

To fight them to the death... that's just stupid.

At first... Danzo didn't take the two geniuses Hanzo mentioned to heart, he just made a note of them.

When the opportunity arises in the future, I will conveniently eliminate these two juniors.

Unexpectedly, these two, especially Yubi, who seemed somewhat inconspicuous in comparison to Sasori, a medical ninja, actually displayed remarkable medical talent.

Yubi's "threat" is actually quite limited, but even if there is only the slightest possibility, Danzo will not "sit idly by".

He would not allow any sign of anything threatening Konoha.

Moreover, he now needs to use this major battle to prove that he is no less capable than Sarutobi in decision-making and management of his subordinates.

Konoha cannot live without him.

"Just a medical ninja... The information Hanzo passed on was clearly embellished. That guy... he's got a good plan. Given the current resources of Sunagakure and the behavior of their higher-ups, they would never expect something like this to happen right under their noses..."

Sometimes... the darkest place is right under your nose.

Danzo thought to himself.

The coldness in his eyes became increasingly apparent.

……

A few days later, in Sunagakure Village, at night.

Yubi returned home and lay in bed.

Recently, the hospital's temporary changes have been on track, and he, who was originally very busy, has been able to take a breather.

He brought up the system interface.

Host: Yubi.

Identity: Sand Village Genin (Medical Ninja).

Age: 9 years old.

Current stored positive experience points (saving lives): 13.

Stored negative experience points (murder): 469.

Currently redeemed items and abilities in the shop: Black Jack's Medical Notes and Insights, Special Scalpel (from Black Jack).

Yin Healing Wound Destruction (Rank A medical ninjutsu: Before being attacked, the user must accurately determine the location where they will be hit and quickly concentrate a certain amount of chakra at that location. After being hit, the wound will automatically heal.)

Palm Healing Technique (Rank A Medical Ninjutsu: Revitalizes all cells in a wound; under normal circumstances, it heals the wound in just a few minutes.)

The Art of Extracting Small Ailments (Rank B Medical Ninjutsu, highly skilled, capable of removing or transplanting poisons and organs).

Regeneration and Healing Technique (Rank A medical ninjutsu, a technique performed by several medical ninjas together, utilizing the injured person's own cells to heal wounds. However, this technique requires an extremely long time and concentration, so frequent rest is necessary to replenish one's stamina.)

Chakra Scalpel (Rank A Ninjutsu: Gathers chakra in the hand to create a scalpel, allowing for internal cutting without external injury, and can be extended at will. Can be used as a weapon, but requires some medical knowledge.)

Chaotic Body Surge (Converts chakra into electrons, interfering with the brain's transmission of electrical waves to the body, rendering the recipient unable to control their body normally).

Thread attachment (allows a thread to be attached to a fixed target, enabling the control of throwing knives for effective shooting).

Death Waltz (The user can manipulate threads with their fingers to perform stealthy assassinations, and can also bind the threads to throwing knives for remote control.)

(This ability comes from the character Belphegor in the anime/manga series "Katekyo Hitman Reborn!".)

"I've pretty much exchanged all the common medical ninjutsu... Next, I'll exchange positive experience points for S-rank ninjutsu or forbidden techniques," Yubi muttered.

Although his experience points are derived from the system's abilities, they are not limited to this world.

But it is ninjutsu after all... it is the fundamental power of this world, and it can be used in the future.

Therefore, Yubi spent all the positive experience points he had gained from missions at the border, including those he had earned from saving people in the hospital over the past few months.

When he acquired the self-created ninjutsu of sword intent manipulation, he didn't spend a single point of positive experience.

Now, on the contrary, the negative experience points are far ahead.

The newly acquired medical ninjutsu mainly consists of four types: Yin Healing and Wound Destruction, Fine Ailment Extraction Technique, Healing and Regeneration Technique, and Chaotic Body Surge.

If you have enough capital, you can exchange it for some of Tsunade's signature techniques, mainly Creation Rebirth, Hundred Healings Technique, and Yin Seal.

As for the bloodline limit Dragon Life Reincarnation and Chiyo's Self-Reincarnation, in Yubi's view, although these two techniques have powerful healing effects and can bring the dead back to life, the user will also die after using them, so they are somewhat useless and there is no need to acquire them.

In addition, some of Tsunade's other ninjutsu require the use of the summoning beast slug. If he were to exchange for it, he would need to meet certain conditions, and he would also need to purchase the summoning beast with experience points, which would be too expensive and not cost-effective. Therefore, Yubi does not plan to purchase any more of them.

After learning Tsunade's Hundred Healings Technique and other techniques, the acquisition of power sources in the Naruto world will be nearly complete.

By then, his medical ninjutsu skills will already be considered top-tier in the ninja world.

Combined with his own abilities... Yubi felt it was perfect.

In comparison, using the same amount of experience points to purchase abilities from other worlds is not only more effective but also more cost-effective.

"However... even if you save too many people and are very busy, the experience points you get in the hospital are pitifully few."

"For me, being on the battlefield is still the best solution."

Yubi murmured in a voice barely audible.

My second move is almost complete.

His importance to the village is self-evident.

He also won the hearts of the villagers.

Especially the contributions he made to the village.

But... that's not enough.

This is, after all, the ninja world... Sometimes, the impact of certain contributions is greater than that of battle achievements.

But to silence others, you essentially need to have great strength.

Shadow is more than just a title.

It is also a symbol of one's own strength.
