Starting with Wood Release, he survives in Konoha Hospital and becomes a big shot.

That brat named Hoshino healed Kawamura Jin's injuries before the battle.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Internal injuries aren't so easy to heal. Even if this kid has some skill, he couldn't heal such an injury in such a short time. You must have cheated using some means!" the Chunin said angrily, his face grim.

"Yes, you must have cheated, otherwise you couldn't have won this match."

"What kind of trash are the people in Group Five? They actually used despicable means to win. It's a disgrace to be associated with you!"

……

"What are you saying? We won fair and square. If you can't accept defeat, just say so."

"Trash, you back out after losing. This is the worst kind of character you have in your group."

……

The two training groups were in complete chaos, and their conflicts not only failed to be resolved but escalated.

Kakashi finally couldn't stand it anymore and decided to take action.

This was another case of his oversight. Using Yao Xingji's medical abilities to help Group Five win was a good idea, but he didn't consider the doubts people had about Yao Xingji.

The medical talent displayed by a child who is just over three years old is truly extraordinary; others can neither believe it nor understand it.

Now that things have come to this, without revealing more of Yao Xingji's abilities, only he, as the team leader, can step in.

"Enough! What kind of behavior is this? Do you think I'm dead?"

Suddenly, an angry voice came from the sidelines, bringing the chaotic situation to an abrupt halt and causing Kakashi, who was about to make a move, to temporarily lower his hands.

Yao Xingji looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in his early twenties with brown hair and a pale face, but with very sharp eyes.

"Team leader."

Upon seeing the newcomers, the group of ninjas immediately greeted them respectfully.

“Shohei-senpai.” Kakashi’s expression turned solemn.

"I'm sorry to have troubled you." Shohei smiled and nodded at Kakashi.

As the leader of the group, he was injured and temporarily unable to lead the group's special training. He could only have his subordinates merge with Kakashi's group to continue training, but he never expected that such a thing would happen.

He originally came to check on the situation, but unexpectedly witnessed the entire conflict between Group 1 and Group 5.

However, he didn't rush to appear, but instead observed from the sidelines.

Firstly, I wanted to see how Kakashi, the newly emerging ninja prodigy, was doing in terms of leadership, and secondly, I wanted to see if the members of Team One had improved their skills.

However, the final result did leave Shohei somewhat helpless.

Group 5 won, and won fairly, but Group 1's actions really disappointed him.

"You've really disappointed me." Shohei's tone was much harsher when speaking to the Tanaka group.

The group's previous arrogance vanished completely.

"Team leader, Team Five cheated, otherwise..." The Chunin who spoke up earlier no longer believed that it was Yakusei-ki who had cured Kawamura Jin.

"Enough! Aren't you ashamed enough already?" Xiangping roared.

"Shōhei-senpai, I didn't do a good job in this matter, please don't blame them," Kakashi said at the right moment.

“I saw what happened just now. You did nothing wrong. They were the ones who couldn’t accept defeat,” Xiangping said.

Upon hearing this, the members of Group One all showed expressions of resentment, but due to Xiangping's intimidation, they dared not say anything more.

"Starry Sky Lord, right? I've heard of your name for a long time, but I didn't expect to have the opportunity to meet you here." Xiangping changed the subject and his gaze fell on Yao Xingji.

"Have you heard of me?" Yao Xingji asked in confusion.

Upon hearing this, the members of the group looked at Yao Xingji again.

Ultimately, this duel was caused by Yao Xingji, and it was because of him that one group lost the competition.

Although everyone remained skeptical of Yao Xingji, seeing that both Kakashi and Shohei, two powerful figures, were very friendly towards him, they couldn't help but become curious about Yao Xingji's identity.

Where did this kid come from? Did he really heal Kawamura Jin's abdominal injury?

"I heard some time ago that Lady Tsunade took on a disciple, and I never expected to meet you here. It must be fate," Shohei said with a smile.

"Lady Tsunade's disciple?"

"This brat is Lady Tsunade's apprentice?"

"Damn it, when did Lady Tsunade start taking on disciples?!"

……

Upon hearing what Xiangping said, the group members all showed expressions of shock.

Tanaka and the others were also stunned. They never expected that such a little kid, who was just over three years old, would be the new disciple of Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin. Was this still the Tsunade who refused to take on disciples, as they remembered her?

Yao Xing scratched his head sheepishly, without offering any explanation.

This Shohei must have been observing from the sidelines for quite some time, and most likely witnessed the process of him treating Kawamura Jin, which is why he was so friendly to him.

Unlike Kakashi, Shohei is already a Jonin, and as an Anbu Jonin, his strength and mental fortitude are both elite-level. It is a wise choice for him to cultivate a good relationship with Tsunade's disciple, who is also a powerful medical ninja.

"You will continue training with Kakashi. Until I recover, he will be your team leader. Anyone who disobeys his orders is disobeying mine. The Anbu does not need members who disobey their superiors." Shohei said coldly to the team members, his smile fading.

"Yes!" the group responded.

With that said, they really didn't dare to go against Kakashi anymore, otherwise it would mean direct elimination.

"Alright, I'm leaving now, cough cough cough..." After saying this, Xiangping seemed to have used up all his strength, and his face turned much paler. He coughed and turned to leave.

“Senior, let me give you a ride,” Kakashi said immediately.

"No need." Xiangping waved his hand and walked away slowly.

Yao Xingji looked at the seriously ill Xiangping, and a reddish-pink light appeared in her eyes.

"His injury isn't just a physical one..." Yao Xingji thought to himself as he watched Xiangping leave.

"Ah, I'm afraid Kurama Shohei-senpai's injury..." Kakashi sighed from the side.

"Kurama?" Yao Xingji's gaze suddenly flickered, and he looked at Xiangping's departing figure and said directly, "Senior, would you like me to take a look at your injuries?"

Listing Instructions

It's confirmed that the book will be available for purchase on September 1st. I hope everyone will support it. Because I had surgery a couple of days ago, I had to stop updating, so the book will most likely flop in the first day of sales. However, I still hope everyone can support it and give it a first-day subscription.

I guarantee at least five chapters on the day of release, and then I'll add more depending on the initial subscription numbers; if it reaches 1,000, I'll add one more chapter. I'll maintain a stable update schedule afterward, and then decide whether to aim for 6,000 words a day, depending on my energy. I've finished surgery and started working again, so my energy is relatively limited.

This book will probably be around a million words long, so it won't be too long. I feel like I've hit a bottleneck in my Naruto writing. Sometimes I don't know what to write, and I'm having serious writer's block. So I'll just try to finish writing the outline I've prepared.

Finally, I look forward to everyone's continued support. I'm going to get back to writing now, so please remember to subscribe! *sobs*

Chapter Ninety-Four: The Saddle Horse Clan

"You want to treat my illness?"

Xiangping, who was about to leave, heard Yao Xingji's voice and turned around in surprise.

“If possible, I’d like to give it a try,” Yao Xingji said.

Kakashi glanced at Yao Xingji, then at Shohei. Although he didn't know why Yao Xingji was suddenly interested in Shohei's injury, since Yao Xingji had already spoken, his best option was to go along with Yao Xingji's wishes and continue speaking.

“Senior Shohei, Hoshiki has been studying under Lady Tsunade recently, and he probably noticed your symptoms. If it’s convenient for you, you could let him try it; it might help you recover from your injuries sooner,” Kakashi said.

Shohei pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "What's inconvenient about it? I'd be more than happy to have Lady Tsunade's disciple help."

Kurama Shohei did not doubt Yao Xingji's medical talent; otherwise, Yao Xingji would not have become Tsunade's disciple. However, his injuries and ailments were not something that ordinary people could handle, so he did not think Yao Xingji could change anything.

However, Yao Xingji is Tsunade's disciple after all. If Yao Xingji can't handle it and asks Tsunade for help, and Tsunade agrees to treat him, then Shohei will have made a huge profit.

Therefore, his acceptance of Yao Xingji's treatment was not so much due to his trust in Yao Xingji's medical skills, but largely because of Tsunade's influence behind Yao Xingji.

"Then let's go to Konoha Hospital!" Yao Xingji said with a smile.

He could tell that Shohei had little hope for his treatment, but what did it matter?

The real purpose of medicine is to exploit loopholes; treatment is merely a means to achieve this grand goal.

"I wonder if this treatment will yield what I want from the Anma clan," Yao Xingji thought to himself.

After leaving the Anbu training ground, Yakusei, Kurama Shohei, and Kakashi arrived at Konoha Hospital.

In a hospital room.

"The Eye of Salvation!"

Yao Xingji immediately activated his pupil technique and looked at Kurama Shohei in front of him.

"A pupil technique?" Shohei Kurama's gaze sharpened slightly.

"This is a unique eye technique of the Star Realm. It allows you to see the injuries on others and heal them. Kawamura Jin's injuries were healed using the Eye of Salvation," Kakashi explained from the side.

"I see!" Shohei Kurama exclaimed in shock.

He had seen Yao Xingji treating Kawamura Jin from afar, and although he witnessed the whole process, he didn't understand what had happened. Only now did he finally understand.

"Senior Xiangping, your lungs were severely injured, weren't they? Judging from the injuries, it seems that a long sword was pierced into your chest, almost damaging your heart," Yao Xingji said.

“That’s right, that’s exactly it.” Shohei Kurama nodded immediately.

That sword strike nearly cost him his life. If he hadn't used illusion magic to disrupt the enemy's perception at the crucial moment, he would already be engraved on the monument.

"Your lung injury is severe, and although the sword didn't hit your heart, it still caused some damage." Yao Xingji looked up, his pink eyes staring directly at Kurama Shohei. "Your injuries will probably have to end your ninja career, especially since you already have health problems."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he looked at Kurama Shohei in shock.

He hadn't expected Kurama Shohei's injuries to be so severe, to the point that they would affect his ninja career.

Shohei Kurama's face turned deathly pale at that moment, and his hands even began to tremble slightly.

"Is there really... no way out?" Shohei Kurama closed his eyes in anguish.

He was well aware of his physical limitations; his body was indeed not as strong as other ninjas, a situation common to many in his clan. This injury had left him extremely weak, and combined with his existing physical issues, he had indeed begun to feel a decline in his strength.

But the clan had high hopes for him, and how could he explain this to the members of the Anma clan?

“Who says there’s no way? There is a way!” Yao Xingji said directly.

Shohei Kurama suddenly opened his eyes. "You...you really have a way?"
