The Grass Village Has a Hospital Too / Different Choices

What's worse, this guy even possesses Tailed Beasts -level Chakra!

Even veteran Kage Level aren't this good!

What the intelligence experts from various villages couldn't understand was that Uchiha Shingen performed with such ease on his first battlefield experience. According to some elders who had lived through the Warring States period, his performance on the Hidden Mist Village battlefield was something that could only be cultivated in the extremely harsh living environment of the Warring States period—to be so skilled and adaptable to killing on the battlefield.

There's no explanation other than that it can be attributed to talent.

It can't possibly be Killer Ghost from the Warring States period who has been reincarnated, can it?

The Uchiha Clan that could produce someone like this is truly terrifying!

Kusagakure didn't know what the other villages thought, but they were terrified when they heard that Uchiha Shingen was coming to visit.

Otherwise, the higher-ups of Kusagakure wouldn't have put on such a show.

This kind of monster is really not to be trifled with...

However, on the other hand, there's nothing shameful about licking Leaf Village's White Ghost.

Many people want to lick it but don't have the chance!

The leader of Kusagakure had a tough time; despite having no heart problems, he experienced the wonderful feeling of a near-heart attack prematurely.

"It's just a normal training exercise, Shingen. We, the entire Kusagakure, have long admired you. If we hadn't suffered such heavy losses, we would have loved to fight under your command."

"Hey, don't be so serious." Uchiha Shingen slapped the leader of Kusagakure on the shoulder. "Personality cults are no good. In Leaf Village, everyone knows I'm honest and straightforward, strict with myself but lenient with others, and I never argue with anyone."

Uchiha Clan withdrew his hand, seemingly speaking with a double meaning to the leader, "You must have faith in Leaf Village. Leaf Village is reasonable towards its allies."

"That's right, since we have Hidden Leaf Village Kusagakure been living a good life." The leader of Kusagakure suppressed the urge to look at his shoulder. "Lord Shingen, please continue to take care of Kusagakure in the future."

He was extremely miserable.

Damn it, he's been hit by the Flying Thunder God Seal on the White Ghost! If anything happens, he'll be the first to die!

"Yes, don't worry. If anyone bullies you, just tell me, and I'll kill them." Uchiha Shingen said righteously, "Bullying Leaf Village's allies is an insult to Leaf Village. Although I am kind to others, when it comes to Leaf Village's reputation, I have no choice but to kill their entire family!"

Perhaps realizing he'd been a bit too harsh, he explained, "Boss, look, most of us who're in this business have elderly parents and young children to support. If you kill the breadwinner, how are his family supposed to live? And how miserable would it be if they were left without anyone to care for them in the afterlife? After all, family is the most important thing; happiness comes from having a whole family together."

"As expected of Lord Shingen, his benevolence and righteousness are unparalleled!"

The White Ghost of Leaf Village is incredibly bloodthirsty!

Those little bastards in the village need to be kept in check. If any of them are too blind, then we'll have to rid Kusagakure of a great scourge!

"Alright, let's not just stand there, let's go inside. I've never been to Kusagakure before."

"Yes, yes, Lord Shingen, please go first!"

Chapter Thirty-Three: Even the Kusagakure Has a Hospital

Welcomed by the high-ranking officials of Kusagakure, Uchiha Shingen entered Kusagakure with two subordinates.

Hyuga Yayoi and Inuzuka Keita kept their mouths tightly shut the entire time, looking at their captain and the extremely respectful Grass Ninja high-ranking members around them, feeling utterly astonished.

Could this be considered... one person suppressing an entire village?

They all came from prominent families, so they naturally knew that the title of "Konoha Ninja" alone was not enough to achieve this.

The Kusagakure is a second-tier organization in the Ninja World. Although it ranks low in this tier, it cannot be easily suppressed by one person.

Having searched through all five major villages and excluding the five major shadows, such people are few and far between.

The two felt both excited and fortunate to be able to carry out missions with such people.

I want to sing a song called "Thank you, Mom and Dad, for loving me so much."

Inuzuka Keita thought that if he were as good as the captain, he would receive so many love letters every day that his hands would be sore from holding them.

Hyuga Yayoi, felt that she didn't expect Inuzuka Keita to go to that extent. Even if he only did half of that, she would marry him immediately and promise not to bully him anymore.

After all, she actually prefers being bullied.

Unaware of the complex inner thoughts of his two subordinates, Uchiha Shingen walked through Kusagakure, observing his surroundings.

The streets of Kusagakure are rather desolate and poorly planned, with buildings very crowded.

The atmosphere in the city was rather oppressive. When the residents saw the ninjas traveling, they hurriedly hid in their homes or in the shadows between buildings, looking at Uchiha Shingen and his group with curiosity and danger.

This is definitely not a place where visitors can feel happy.

The businesses are mostly small shops run by the villagers themselves, and the goods are mainly daily necessities.

"Chief, your village's commerce doesn't seem to be thriving."

"Shingen is too kind. We are just a small village in a small country. How could we dare to talk about commerce? It's just that the villagers do some small business among themselves for convenience." The leader of Kusagakure gave a wry smile.

This was truly the honest truth he spoke from the bottom of his heart.

Life in Kusagakure is not exactly colorful. There are entertainment venues, but they are only open to ninjas, as resources are limited.

Uchiha Shingen made no comment on this, nor did he care about the quality of life of the villagers of Kusagakure.

Kusagakure is a village with a clear hierarchy, where ninjas are clearly superior and this is not concealed at all.

"Lord Shingen, would you like some?" The leader of Kusagakure kept winking at Uchiha Shingen, his expression lewd.

Uchiha Shingen glanced at him.

He sneered inwardly.

"To your office? That would be nice," he said.

"Ah... yes, that's exactly what I meant." The leader of Kusagakure was taken aback, but nodded repeatedly after realizing what he meant.

I just had some doubts.

Wasn't this guy supposed to be a womanizer?

The intelligence shouldn't be wrong; it's probably that the other side doesn't respect Kusagakure's territory.

The leader of Kusagakure was still unconvinced by this.

It's true that resources are scarce in Kusagakure, but it's precisely because of this scarcity that they can be so carefully selected.

However, since the other party didn't respond to his question, he couldn't say it outright.

"This way, please." He led Uchiha Shingen toward his office building. As he turned around, he glanced at his attendant, who took a few steps back.

As they walked along, the streets were quiet, but the three ninjas from Leaf Village felt a growing sense of familiarity.

Gradually, not only Uchiha Shingen, but also Hyuga Yayoi and Inuzuka Keita realized it.

In many places, Kusagakure actually follows the layout of Leaf Village.

They just couldn't grasp the essence.

"Hmm?" Uchiha Shingen paused slightly.

He saw the hospital.

In Leaf Village, beneath the Hokage Rock, the Ninja Academy is the largest building complex, followed by Leaf Hospital.

Although Kusagakure doesn't have XX Rock, they still built their school and hospital in the same area.

There is also the tallest building, with a large plaque with the word "" hanging on it.

On the left and right sides of this building are the Ninja Academy and the Ninja Hospital, respectively.

Putting aside the Ninja Academy, the fact that Kusagakure had set up a hospital was something Uchiha Shingen hadn't expected.

This can be considered small but complete.

However, this hospital is nothing like the one in Leaf Village; it's just a small, lonely building.

"Chief, your village has plenty of medical-nin." He smiled at the leader of Kusagakure.

"No, no," the leader of Kusagakure said with a forced smile, looking at the almost silent hospital, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The wounded were all here; thankfully, they've all been moved away in time.

Although this might lead to more deaths, there's no other way.

The Demolition Corps's methods of killing are so easily identifiable that if Uchiha Shingen were to become curious and take a look, he might find out everything.

Uchiha Shingen was indeed curious.

Of all the institutions in Leaf Village, the hospital is the most difficult to replicate.

medical-nin are much rarer than combat ninjas, and this is true even in Leaf Village.

Leaf Village's medical-nin resources are only enough to set up field hospitals on the battlefield. The idea of having medical-nin actually go down to the grassroots level and move with the troops is out of the question.

The other four villages are roughly the same, and smaller in size than Leaf Village.

The skill level of medical-nin is also a threshold; those who are truly lacking are exceptionally poor.

Of the five great villages, besides Leaf Village, Sand Village actually has a higher level of Medical Ninjutsu. However, Sand Village specializes in detoxification and surgery, and is far inferior to Leaf Village in other aspects.

Uchiha Shingen looked at the Kusagakure hospital building; it was quiet inside.

He suddenly remembered something.

"Chief, are there any members of the Uzumaki Clan in your village?"

Uchiha Shingen remembered the character Uzumaki Karin.

The reason I remember this character is, of course, because this Uzumaki Clan survivor worked for Orochimaru. As anyone who watches Hokage knows, Orochimaru collected elites of various bloodlines after his defection.

Before following Orochimaru, Uzumaki Karin was a Grass Ninja and even participated in the Chunin Ninja Exams Leaf Village in the original timeline, during which she was saved by Uchiha Sasuke.

This incident probably left a deep impression on her, and she later became a huge fan of Sasuke.

But rather than being Sasuke with Uzumaki Karin as a person, it's more accurate to say that Uchiha Sasuke became the light in Uzumaki Karin's heart at the most opportune moment.

Regardless, Uzumaki Karin is indeed very talented, and it's worthwhile for Uchiha Shingen to bring her back to Leaf Village.

"The Uzumaki Clan?" The leader of Kusagakure was taken aback, then said, "No way, why would the Uzumaki Clan come to a small village like ours?"

The Uzumaki Clan now lives in seclusion in the Ninja World, so even if they exist, he wouldn't recognize them.

If he really had one, he would immediately bring all the girls in the village over to breed with him.

That's the Uzumaki Clan!

Although the leader of Kusagakure didn't know much about the Uzumaki Clan, he did know that the wives of the First Hokage and the Fourth Hokage were both from the Uzumaki Clan, and that this clan had the ability to suppress Tailed Beasts.

He firmly believed that if Takigakure didn't have that Tailed Beasts, they might not have fared as well as their Kusagakure.

Uchiha Shingen did not bother to verify the truthfulness of the Kusagakure leader's words.

He immediately activated his Chakra perception.

Chapter Thirty-Four: Different Choices

Aside from physical reflexes and the talent for Space-Time Ninjutsu, the most important aspect of the Flying Thunder God Technique is Chakra perception.

Even if someone's physical resistance is slightly weaker, or their talent for Space-Time Ninjutsu is slightly lacking, they might still be able to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, but without Chakra perception, they won't be able to use it even if they learn it.

If you can't sense the Flying Thunder God Seal, what's the point of flying it?

The strength of one's Chakra perception ability determines the range of use of the Flying Thunder God Technique, as well as the ability to accurately capture and locate the Flying Thunder God Seal.

Both Senju Tobirama and Namikaze Minato were bug-level characters whose Chakra perception range was severely exceeded. In the original timeline, they could sense the Chakra on the battlefield even within Konoha.

The battlefield of the Fourth Shinobi World War was located in the northernmost part of the Land of Iron, a distance roughly the same as the distance from Leaf Village to Sand Village.

While Uchiha Shingen's sensory range was indeed inferior to these two freaks, within its effective range, he surpassed them.

Once Chakra perception was activated, all the Chakra in the Kusagakure Hospital was clearly displayed in Uchiha Shingen's "eyes".

"Chief, you probably need to explain this to me," Uchiha Shingen, looking at the Kusagakure leader beside him. "Of course, I can also pretend you didn't know."

"Shingen, I don't know..."

"I won't go into the details of the temporary relocation of many people," Uchiha Shingen said with a half-smile. "But why did I sense the Uzumaki Clan's Chakra in the hospital? You're using the Uzumaki Clan as medicine; you should know the nature of this, right?"

The high-ranking members of the Grass Ninja were all stunned.

Seeing their state, Uchiha Shingen kindly offered them a suggestion.

"A wild goose leaves a trace, the wind leaves a sound, Chakra is the same. This short time is not enough for the traces of Chakra to disappear. However, you probably wouldn't understand what I'm saying." Uchiha Shingen lifted his foot and walked towards the Kusagakure Hospital. "All you need to know is that going against Leaf Village means certain death."

Just as Uchiha Shingen said, the Grass Ninja present did not understand the first half of his sentence, but they all understood the second half.
