Konoha Hospital.
Roeshu has been in a coma for a week.
Tsunade has been guarding the hospital bed these days. Bai Yu and Kushina persuaded her again and again before she went to rest for a while.
In fact, when Sheng Shu came out of the operating room, she was basically out of danger, but due to excessive blood loss and a slight brain shock, otherwise she would have woken up long ago.
The most worrying thing now is what will happen after Rope Tree wakes up?
With an injury of this magnitude, not to mention being unable to become a ninja, life would be inconvenient, and he would probably need someone to take care of him.
Can Rope Tree accept such a result?
Having something and then losing it is more unacceptable than never having something.
An injury directly ended all possibilities for the future of this genius.
...
At noon, Bai Yu and Kushina finished lunch and went to the hospital to visit the rope tree, and by the way, they gave Tsunade lunch.
Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, has already gone to the western border, but he heard that Sunagakure's side dispatched the Third Kazekage, as well as the elder Chiyo, and his puppet master troops.
Chiyo is not only a strong Kage-level person, but also very good at using poison, which cannot be removed by ordinary medical ninjutsu.
Now, because Konoha cannot deal with the poison of the Sunagakure puppet master's troops, it can only hold on without fighting, but this is not a long-term solution.
Obviously, Tsunade, the medical expert, had to go to the front lines.
Bai Yu checked the injuries of the poisoned ninja sent back from the front line. This is a toxin that can directly affect chakra. If an antidote cannot be developed, then the "palm magic" must be used to slowly remove the toxin.
It's just that Palm Senjutsu is an A-level advanced medical ninjutsu that combines offense and defense. Even in the medical class, only a handful of people can use it.
However, there were a lot of poisoned ninjas, and it would be too late to use palm magic to detoxify them one by one.
Moreover, Palm Immortal Technique requires extremely high chakra control, and it consumes a lot of energy when used. Even if one masters Palm Immortal Technique, few people can continue to use it for a long time.
...
Bai Yu and Kushina arrived outside the special care ward.
The gatekeepers were two chunin. Since Bai Yu and Kushina were not outsiders, they let them through directly.
"Tsunade-sensei, let's eat first."
Seeing that Naoshu hadn't woken up yet, Bai Yu put the lunch box on the small table on the bed next to him.
Tsunade sleeps directly in the ward these days so that she can take care of the rope tree at any time.
After saying that, Bai Yu winked at Kushina.
Kushina understood, sat next to Tsunade, and gently held her cold hand, "Sister Tsunade, let's eat first. Brother Naoki is awake. He will feel sad when he sees you like this." of."
Tsunade heard this and nodded slightly.
Shengshu's vital signs have been basically stable, and it stands to reason that he will wake up in the next day or two.
However, with the changes in the battle situation on the front line, she could not stay in the village forever, but if Shengshu didn't wake up, how could she leave with peace of mind.
Bai Yu opened the lunch box for Tsunade and handed her the chopsticks. The aroma of the food spread instantly.
Although Tsunade didn't have much of an appetite, she still finished the entire bento.
After all, checking the body of the rope tree also requires the use of chakra, and sufficient energy must be replenished.
Bai Yu and Kushina just sat silently beside Tsunade.
Sometimes, words are feeble, but they are silent companionship, which may give Tsunade some comfort.
"You should have school later, so go to class first. I'll be fine here." After a while, Tsunade came back to her senses and said softly.
Kushina said: "Today is Saturday, school is on holiday. Sister Tsunade, let us stay with you for a while."
"Oh...oh." Tsunade nodded.
About an hour later, Naoki's eyelids on the hospital bed trembled slightly. Tsunade's body trembled suddenly and she came to the hospital bed to check the situation.
"Rope tree? Rope tree!" Tsunade said softly: "How do you feel?"
"Sister...sister." Naoshu slowly opened his eyes, his voice was extremely hoarse and dry, "My legs... hurt so much!"
Tsunade's eyes turned red, she held back her tears, and began to use medical ninjutsu to examine Naoki's body.
Naoshu also seemed to understand his current situation.
His reaction was much calmer than Bai Yu expected.
Naoki glanced at Kushina and Bai Yu next to him, smiled sadly and said:
"Bai Yu, I'm sorry, if I had listened to you and not been so aggressive... maybe this wouldn't be the result."
"Shengshu, you need to take good care of your injuries first and don't think too much." Bai Yu comforted him.
Naoki nodded, looked at Tsunade and said, "Sister, don't worry, I feel much better. Where is Mr. Orochimaru?"
"Orochimaru blamed himself very much after you were injured. He went to the Land of Thunder a few days ago and was seriously injured when he came back."
Tsunade explained.
"The rope tree, Orochimaru..."
"This incident was all caused by me and has nothing to do with Teacher Orochimaru. You can't blame him. You have to explain it clearly to the clan elders." Naoki expressed his understanding, "Teacher Orochimaru's injury... "
"I will." Tsunade nodded, "Orochimaru's injury is not a big problem and he will heal soon."
At this time, Bai Yu thought of a major event that had been circulating in the ninja world in recent days.
Could it be that the injury to the rope tree was related to the Kumogakure village, so in order to avenge the rope tree, Orochimaru killed Kumogakure's eight-tailed jinchūriki, causing the eight-tails to go crazy. Eight elite jounin from Kumogakure were killed, and dozens of jounin were injured. .
How much risk does this take?
I really can't tell that Orochimaru, who is usually taciturn and calm, has such admirable courage to defend his shortcomings.
Tsunade looked at Shiro Yu and Kushina who were aside, "Shiro Yu, Kushina, Orochimaru's injury is a secret, I hope you will keep it a secret."
Because Orochimaru's "inadequate care" caused the rope tree to be seriously injured and dying, the former jonins of the Senju clan were dissatisfied, especially some old guys who had not given up the Senju surname. They had been fanning the flames and trying to amplify the incident. .
The second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, disbanded the Senju clan on the spot, in an attempt to eliminate the boundaries of the family, so that all ninjas could only have the background of Konoha Village.
However, after Hiruzen Sarutobi succeeded for three generations, he did not continue to implement this policy, so some of the ninjas of the original Senju clan wanted to rebuild the Senju clan.
The rope tree is their hope!
Only the grandson of the First Hokage could do this, and it would be justified and he would receive the least resistance.
Now that hope is gone, someone has to bear their anger.
But Tsunade didn't blame Orochimaru, who could have imagined that such a thing would happen.
Moreover, Tsunade saw what Orochimaru did to the rope tree.
"Yes, Teacher Tsunade." Bai Yu knew the importance.
As for Kushina, she won't talk nonsense.
"Sister, I want to eat meatballs." Shen Shu suddenly said.
Tsunade was stunned when she heard this, and comforted softly: "Naoki, you can't eat these right now. When you feel better, you can eat whatever you want. I'll let Bai Yu and Kushina buy it for you."
She didn't say she was going to buy it, because the Rope Tree's awakening meant she was going to the frontline battlefield.
"Sister, don't worry about me, I'm fine and the village needs you!"
Naoshu acted unusually calm and said with a smile.
His strong look is really heartbreaking.
At this time, Bai Yu suddenly said:
"Rose Tree, actually your leg is not completely hopeless."
