Konoha's Embrace of Shadows

Facing Kushina's doubts, Sarutobi Hiruzen blushed and said awkwardly: "I have been busy with work recently and my back hurts after sitting for a long time. .1kanshu"

Hearing this, Kushina understood instantly and glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen sympathetically. Being Hokage is really tiring. If Minato really becomes Hokage, I hope he won't be as vain as this old guy!

Genji, on the other hand, noticed the crystal ball behind Hiruzen Sarutobi, and then looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression, and instantly understood.

Kushina-sensei, you are so young! Hokage-sama's kidney fire has been very strong recently!

Sarutobi Hiruzen's hunched body slowly straightened, and his face returned to its previous indifferent expression. He asked doubtfully: "Kushina, what are you doing here today? Haven't you been studying the sealing technique recently?" ?”

"How did you know?"

Kushina was even more confused than Hiruzen Sarutobi. She hadn't seen Hiruzen Sarutobi recently, so how did he know about her recent situation.

"Well, a passing ANBU reported to me."

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his mouth and came, this low-level lie was enough to deceive Kushina, but in order to prevent Kushina from thinking too much, he changed the subject and said: "How is it, are you encountering any problems? Speak out and let me listen and see if there is a solution!"

"I've succeeded!"

Kushina was a little dissatisfied with Hiruzen Sarutobi's tone, but considering that she would have to ask Hiruzen Sarutobi to cough up some money later, she swallowed her anger and said.

"It failed! It doesn't matter. Keep up the good work. The development of sealing technology is not that easy. As long as you persevere, one day what do you mean?"

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen realized that Kushina seemed to have succeeded? !

Are you kidding me? An idea that I had just thought of at the time actually succeeded?

"In fact, when we were developing the sealing technique, Genji and I changed our minds and developed another ninjutsu."

"Oh!"

When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this, he nodded naturally.

He just said, how could it be successful?

If this succeeds, he will stop being the Hokage and just dream about it all day long.

Kushina heard the disapproval in Hiruzen Sarutobi's tone, and sneered at Genji: "Genji, come and tell our dear Lord Hokage about the new ninjutsu we developed!"

"Okay, Kushina-sensei!"

After Genji replied to Kushina, he then said to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Hokage-sama, Kushina-sensei and I first thought of the essence of the sealing technique you gave us to develop."

He told Hiruzen Sarutobi the development process of this ninjutsu and its functions.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat up straight after hearing this inadvertently from the beginning, and listened to Genji's explanation with a solemn expression. He had not come back to his senses until Genji finished speaking.

After a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly said: "During the Second Ninja War, Tsunade proposed at a high-level meeting that each ninja team should have a ninja who masters medical ninjutsu, so as to reduce the ninja's Mortality rate, Tsunade’s proposal was not passed at that time.”

Seeing that Kushina was about to speak, Sarutobi Hiruzen solemnly raised his hand and said, "Listen to me."

Kushina picked her ears and continued to listen to Sarutobi Hiruzen's nonsense.

"After that, the war became more and more intense, and the mortality rate of ninjas remained high. Even so, the village still did not implement the implementation of equipping the ninja team with medical ninjas. Do you know why?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to be asking Kushina and Genji, but in fact he focused all his attention on Genji. He knew that this question was too difficult for Kushina.

Yuanji thought for a while and then said:

"The missions performed by the ninja team on the battlefield are usually raid-type battles. Even a melee is unlikely to fall into a protracted battle. This means that medical ninjas do not have enough room to perform."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and then said:

"This is one of the reasons. The more important thing is that if there is a medical ninja in a team, a teammate must be provided for protection. This means that a team directly loses two members, and the combat effectiveness is reduced by at least half!"

Hearing this, Kushina, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke.

"But Aunt Tsunade is also a medical ninja, so she doesn't need protection. She can even kill most of the combat ninjas you call them!"

Hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi rolled his eyes at Kushina, who was picky about eggs, and said angrily: "Not everyone can become a ninja who is excellent in combat and treatment like Tsunade. "

"Who said that! I'm sure my disciple will definitely become a ninja like Aunt Tsunade."

Kushina pulled Genji behind her, even more confident than Genji.

"That can only mean that it is a very small number of geniuses! On the battlefield, it is not just about personal strength."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Kushina who wanted to argue with him and said quickly:

"And this treatment model you developed perfectly solves this problem!"

"There is no need for medical ninjas to appear on the battlefield, but they have healing abilities. The entire team will be combat-type ninjas, and they can even exchange injuries for injuries with the enemy!

"A ninja team that is not afraid of injuries has so much room to play! From this point of view, on behalf of the entire village, I want to thank you two!"

With that said, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and bowed solemnly to Kushina and Genji.

This move caught both Kushina and Genji off guard. They did not expect that a gadget they had messed up would receive such attention from Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Being bowed and thanked by the contemporary Hokage can be said to be the highest honor for a ninja. It is more accomplished than completing any A-level or S-level tasks! It cannot be measured by money.

etc! money? !

Kushina, who had been silent in her vanity, suddenly woke up and looked directly at Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Old man, you don't want to send us two away with just such a bow, do you?"

"No way, Kushina, you misunderstood. This is just my unilateral expression of gratitude!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled awkwardly. In fact, he really had this idea. The village's finances were currently in deficit, so how could he have so much money to pay Kushina.

Unexpectedly, Kushina would become so smart at this time, and she immediately saw his ulterior motives.

And Genji also looked at Kushina in shock, is this still his stupid master?

Sure enough, even a pig will become the famous Detective Conan if his own interests are harmed!

"Hmph! The reward for this mission must not be less!" Kushina crossed her arms, full of distrust for Sarutobi Hiruzen: "And I want it now!"
