Poisoned

Orochimaru looked at her clenched fist and did not continue teasing her.

Tsunade's Monster Strength was not something that could be brushed off with a joke.

"Don't worry."

Orochimaru spread his hands, the smile on his face unchanged.

"I have no interest in spreading that kind of news."

"Besides, no one on the front lines dares question you right now."

"I'm merely reminding Fang Xu that the Flying Thunder God is far too special in its applications. Once certain things spread, it will be easy for others to make an issue of them."

Fang Xu understood what Orochimaru meant.

Ordinary ninja might only feel envious.

But Konoha's higher-ups might use it to demand that he take on more transport and rescue missions.

Once that precedent was set, whenever an emergency arose anywhere on the front lines, someone would expect him to rush over immediately.

By then, the convenience brought by the Flying Thunder God would instead become a restraint.

"I'll be careful."

Fang Xu was not angered by Orochimaru's teasing. He had never intended to become Konoha's exclusive transportation tool.

Only then did Tsunade unclench her fist.

"Let's talk business."

She raised a hand and pointed outside the tent.

"You came all the way here to find me. What exactly happened?"

The smile on Orochimaru's face gradually faded.

"Chiyo has developed a brand-new lethal poison."

He took a medical record from his sleeve and handed it to Tsunade.

"At first, the poisoned person will only feel numbness around the wound."

"Ten minutes later, the poison enters the internal organs through the bloodstream."

"Within half an hour, Chakra flow is obstructed, and breathing capacity rapidly declines."

"Ordinary Antidotes are ineffective."

Tsunade took the record and quickly flipped through it.

The paper documented the symptoms of several wounded soldiers.

Body numbness.
