?"Yakushi Hane, now I am Konoha Third Hokage..."
"Officially promote you to Jonin and squad leader of Konoha Medical Corps!"
In the huge Hokage office, looking at the calm white-haired young man in front of him, Third Hokage announced with a serious face.
In addition to him, there are Mitokado Homura, Utatane Koharu and Shimura Danzō in the office and three Konoha High Command are also present.
"Medical class monitor?!"
As soon as Third Hokage finished speaking, a look of surprise appeared on the face of Yu in front of him.
I didn't expect that the old man Third Hokage valued me so much. Not only did he promote himself to be a Jonin, but he also made me the squad leader of Konoha Medical Corps.
This is not an ordinary position. At least in the Konoha system, it is on the same level as the Uchiha Clan patriarch Uchiha Fugaku Konoha Military Police Force captain. It is a position with huge real power. In the future, he will definitely be qualified to enter the highest decision-making level of Konoha.
Are you planning to train me and then support me to rise to the top? Unfortunately, I may not be what you want... Sensing Third Hokage's good intentions towards him, Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
"Eight-year-old Jonin..."
"Even though it's war time, this is crazy."
After hearing the decision made by Third Hokage, Mitokado Homura next to him could not help but murmur.
You know, even Hatake Kakashi, who is known as the genius Konoha, only became a jounin at the age of twelve, but when he came to Yu, the gap widened to four years.
"Your adoptive mother Yakushi Nonō was also the captain of the medical class..."
"Now that you are here, you have inherited her mantle. I hope you will not disappoint our expectations of you."
Looking at Yu who has become a Jonin and Konoha Medical Corps squad leader at the age of eight, Utatane Koharu next to him also sighed with emotion.
Faced with Third Hokage's decision this time, the three Konoha High Command rarely raised any objections, because no matter their strength or the contribution they made to Konoha in the matter of Medical Talisman, they could not find any room for refutation.
Only Danzo, who was sitting silently in the corner, looked at Yu with eyes that became more and more fearful.
As expected before - with the rapid rise in Yu's strength and status, Danzo feels more and more invisible pressure.
Now, the ninjas under him who are always monitoring Konoha Orphanage, not only cannot attack those children rashly, they even have to monitor them in turn.
Otherwise, if something happens to those children, Yu will put the blame on him and Gen, and he will have no place to reason with both sides.
"Since Medical Talisman entered the battlefield, the casualty rate of ninjas on the front line has dropped sharply."
"Yu, this time you have indeed made an outstanding contribution to Konoha."
After promoting Yu to Jonin and Konoha Medical Corps squad leader, looking at the unfazed Yu in front of him, Third Hokage's expectant eyes became more and more appreciative.
"Minato on the front line also successfully cut off the supply of Rock Ninja. This time we can finally breathe a sigh of relief."
"But Rock Ninja and Cloud Ninja are still investing more troops on the battlefield."
But soon, Third Hokage changed the topic and issued a new mission order to Yu in a deep voice, "So Yu, go back and prepare now, and lead the medical team to set off to support the frontline ninjas tomorrow morning!"
"Yes!"
Faced with Third Hokage's order, Yu almost did not hesitate to comply.
He glanced flatly at Danzo next to him, and then his figure moved and disappeared instantly.
"This war has gone on long enough..."
"The years of war have caused heavy losses to Five Great Nations. It's time for it to end."
After Yu left, the huge Hokage office fell into silence.
Looking out the window at the Konoha evening sky, Third Hokage sighed quietly.
"Since we've come this far... why not go in and have a look?"
The sun was setting in the west, and the entire sky of Konoha was dyed red by the dusk setting sun.
Yu Zheng was standing on a high ground, looking at the wooden house of the orphanage in the distance in front of him. A sound like a silver bell came from behind and touched his heartstrings.
Even without looking back, Yu's Observation Haki could still notice the person coming behind him. He had long purple hair, bright eyes and white teeth, and it was Uzuki Yugao he hadn't seen for a while.
"We're leaving tomorrow..."
"When I go, I have to say goodbye to them. It's as if we haven't seen each other yet."
Without raising his head to look at Yugao who was walking beside him, Wen Yanyu's eyes dimmed slightly.
Ever since Nonō was sent to Iwagakure by Danzo to perform a mission, he rarely returned to the orphanage.
"Speaking of this..."
"I've heard it all, Yu, are you really going to be sent to the front line?"
Speaking of this, Yugao's tone couldn't help but be a little anxious.
Although she has never experienced war personally, as a ninja she can more or less understand the cruelty on the battlefield.
How could she calm down when she saw that the boy she loved was about to be sent to the battlefield at such a young age?
"As ninjas, this is our destiny."
"Don't worry Yugao, I will take care of myself."
Withdrawing his gaze and looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, Yu comforted her, "And this time I am only leading the medical ninja to the front line to do rear support work, so there shouldn't be too much danger."
"But this mission may take a longer time..."
But before Yu could finish his words, a fragrant wind floated before his eyes, and two fragrant lips touched his cheek.
Actually... got kissed?
Feeling an electric shock on his cheek, Yu opened his eyes in shock.
Although it was just a gentle kiss on the cheek, the girl Yugao's bold move still made his mind go blank.
I don't know how much time passed, but the two people, who kept bumping into each other, finally separated.
"You must come back safely..."
"No matter how long it takes, I will always be here waiting for you."
Feeling the young man's surprised gaze, Yugao's cheeks turned red and his heartbeat quickened, but his gaze remained firm.
"Yugao..."
After understanding the girl's gaze, Yu couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
Since he traveled to this world, he never imagined that he would have an emotional intersection with anyone.
But now it seems that in addition to Nonō and his friends in the orphanage, he seems to have people and things to worry about in this small village...
Staring at the girl in front of him, time seemed to be frozen in a moment.
The sun sets in the west, and the jade is flawless.
Early the next morning, at the entrance of Konoha Ninja Village.
Yu, who has been promoted to jounin and medical squad leader, has more than twenty medical ninjas lined up behind him.
"Are you ready?!"
Seeing that all the ninjas had arrived, Yu shouted in a deep voice.
"Ready!!"
Hearing Yu's words, more than twenty ninjas behind him responded in unison.
Although he was surprisingly young, they did not raise any objection to the fact that Yu became the monitor of the medical class.
Because whether it is the super-class Medical Ninjutsu or the epoch-making genius achievement of Medical Talisman, Yu has completely convinced this group of medical ninjas.
"Okay, let's go!"
