Warlock Invasion of Naruto.

They are supposed to be companions from the same village, but they are not truly treated equally; rather, they are divided according to "value."

Jonin will always be given priority in receiving treatment.

After all, there simply aren't enough medical ninjas to go around compared to the huge number of injured people.

"Ms. Minami, is there anything else I can help you with?"

After treating the seriously injured patients in the ward, Bai Yu returned to her office to rest and then approached the deputy leader of the medical team.

Minami looked at Shiraha with some surprise, "As expected of a young person who is still developing, you have so much energy!"

"Let's rest for now. There are still many wounded on the way, and they will be personally escorted back by Lady Tsunade and Lady Jiraiya in a few days."

"Will Tsunade-sensei and Jiraiya-sama both come back?" Bai Yu asked doubtfully.

"Yes. Sunagakure's frontal assault and the puppeteer unit's surprise attack were both repelled."

The frequency of battles on the main battlefield is decreasing, and it seems that the village is not far from achieving final victory.

The two adults first took the injured person back to the village, while preparing supplies for the rest of the journey.

Minami explained, a relieved expression on her face. She had been on edge every day, watching the number of wounded soldiers groaning in pain, and now, finally, the hope of ending the war had arrived.

"Yes..." Bai Yu couldn't help but sigh. In fact, he had been on high alert because of the Ninja World War.

He didn't know what would happen next, so he could only keep strengthening himself and increasing his trump cards.

He is still some distance away from being promoted to a third-class apprentice, as his mental strength and physical condition are somewhat lacking.

One copy of the "Cells of Highly Radiation-Induced Organisms" is still missing; we need to prepare it soon.

Although his target is Orochimaru, Jiraiya has returned first. If there is a chance to get Jiraiya's cells, Shiraha will not give up this good opportunity.

"Actually, originally only Jiraiya escorted the wounded back. Tsunade was in a hurry to return because of a major decision the village recently made."

Minami suddenly lowered her voice and whispered in Shiraha's ear.

"A major decision?!" Bai Yu's eyes changed slightly.

Minami continued, "In principle, you should be able to know. After all, your medical ninjutsu level has surpassed most of the Chunin in the medical team."

When Lady Tsunade returns, she'll definitely cause a scene, and this matter will soon be impossible to keep secret.

I'm telling you, you promise me you won't tell anyone.

"Yes, I know what's important," Bai Yu quickly agreed.

"The village is currently conducting a secret experiment involving the transplantation of the First Hokage's cells."

Because the war has lasted too long, the higher-ups want to end it and therefore want to recreate the Wood Release technique of the First Hokage.

Many ninjas who were physically disabled due to injuries served as volunteers for the experiments.

Some physically able-bodied ninjas also participated in the experiments, with the largest number coming from former Senju clan members.

Minami continued.

Bai Yu looked surprised, but quickly realized what was happening. "Did the entire experiment fail?!"

Minami nodded gravely.

"Moreover, all the volunteers who participated in the experiment were engulfed by the primary cells."

Not a single one survived!

We have conducted experimental analysis, and the success rate of transplantation is extremely low.

But neither the higher-ups nor the volunteers were willing to stop the experiment.

The death toll is now approaching one hundred!

And new volunteers arrive at the hospital every day.

"..." Bai Yu felt a chill in his heart and was speechless.

How dare they?

With the current level of medical ninjutsu, the chances of successfully transplanting the First Hokage's cells are extremely low.

Even cells from the same person can have different activity levels.

The first generation's cell activity was so strong that it was vastly different from that of Tsunade and Nawaki. They were practically two different species, let alone the other Senju clan members.

How can you just conduct human experiments right away?!

This is blatant disregard for human life!

Do you want to wipe out the once-powerful Senju clan?

"Where's Rope Tree?! He didn't intend to participate in the experiment, did he?" Bai Yu suddenly asked.

Tsunade and Nawaki are the closest to the First Hokage by blood.

Especially since Rope Tree has now lost both legs, although he has finally recovered from his injuries, he is still unable to move around freely, so he must be eager to have his limbs regenerated.

"No! Although it's clear that Nawaki really wants to recover his severed limbs, he's still quite rational."

He also urged other members of the Thousand Hands clan not to act impulsively.

He said that cell transplantation could only be performed after Lady Tsunade and you had perfected the cell transplantation technique.

This child is much more mature than before.

Minami said with some heartache, "It's a good thing that Nawaki's mind is becoming more mature, but the price of growth is far too high."

"That's good." Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief, guessing that the higher-ups wouldn't dare to let Rope Tree take any risks.

Otherwise, if something goes wrong, Tsunade would turn Konoha upside down.

[Chapter 39. Tsunade's Wrath, and the Surprise Brought by Shiraha!]

Tsunade returned a day earlier than expected.

The injured person returned to the village with Jiraiya the next day.

Due to Tsunade's strong opposition, the Konoha leadership decided to temporarily halt the Wood Release experiment plan.

The high-level emergency meeting will also be held in the conference room of Konoha Hospital.

The next afternoon.

Bai Yu came to the hospital office to find Tsunade.

"Tsunade-sensei, there's something I need to tell you, it's about healing..."

"I have to go to a meeting right now, we'll talk when I get back." Tsunade hurried away, but turned back halfway and grabbed Shiraha's hand. "Come with me!"

"Tsunade-sensei, it seems that genin are not qualified to attend the meeting." Bai Yu looked bewildered, as Tsunade forcefully pulled him back, leaving him no chance to resist.

"If you master the Healing Palm Technique, you can be promoted to Special Jonin using medical ninjutsu. Promoting you to Chunin is just a matter of a word," Tsunade said nonchalantly.

Bai Yu had consulted Tsunade about the training details of the Palm Healing Technique, but he hadn't completely hidden his progress in training medical ninjutsu from her.

The slower his combat abilities improve, the faster his medical ninjutsu improves, and the more secure he will be.

"Alright..." Bai Yu could only let Tsunade pull him along.

When the two arrived at the conference room, most of the seats were already occupied.

Some of the attendees were medical ninjas, while the rest were all Jonin who had participated in frontline battles.

Tsunade led Shiraha directly to a seat in the front row and sat down at a long table with her.

The others had no objection to Bai Yu, a genin, entering the meeting room.

It wasn't just because Tsunade brought him in; more importantly, Shiraha's medical ninjutsu was highly skilled, and some of the Jonin present had received his care when they were injured.

A short while later, Jiraiya arrived at the conference room. He originally wanted to sit with Tsunade, but seeing that Shiraha was already next to her, he sat down behind her.

Once the conference room was full, the Konoha high-ranking officials, led by the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, took their seats at the front.

When the Third Hokage saw Shiraha standing next to Tsunade, he was slightly taken aback, then gave him a kind smile.

"Everyone's here, let's begin the meeting."

With the Third Hokage's order, Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane, who served as Hokage advisors, took the lead in proposing the theme of the meeting, which included arrangements for frontline ninjas.

Bai Yu listened quietly, and soon the topic turned to medical ninjas and medical supplies.

Tsunade stood up and spoke.

"Everyone... My most direct impression from the front lines is that many wounded ninjas are suffering from worsened injuries due to delayed treatment, and some even die because they miss the best time for treatment."

Especially for combat squads undertaking long-term missions in enemy territory, equipping each four-person squad with a medical ninja would significantly increase the squad's survival rate and mission success rate.

Therefore, I believe that training medical ninjas with superb medical skills and establishing a more comprehensive medical system are the most urgent tasks at present.

After Tsunade finished speaking, the room fell silent; not many people agreed.

Bai Yu remained calm. From a personal perspective, Tsunade's suggestion was unfavorable to him, but from the perspective of overall interests, it was beneficial to Konoha.

However, the higher-ups probably won't agree.

Because he spent nearly five years at Konoha Hospital, his biggest feeling was that there wasn't enough manpower.

A medical ninja who can heal without the aid of any drugs or barriers must be proficient in at least C-rank healing techniques and hemostasis techniques. In terms of medical ninjutsu, this is at least second-rate, and according to the ninja classification, this would place them among the most elite Chunin.

Medical ninjutsu requires extremely high chakra control and is highly dependent on talent.

Especially now that it's wartime, training medical ninjas on short notice is like trying to quench a thirst with water from afar.

Tsunade's focus is on the future; it's a long-term plan.

The fact that the higher-ups were so impatient to make such a foolish decision as to conduct a Wood Release experiment shows that they are focused on the present and are trying every means to end the war as soon as possible.

“Tsunade, the situation is indeed as you say. But we are at war now, and establishing a more comprehensive medical system would not only take too much time, but also there are too many wounded at the moment, and the medical ninjas are too busy with their missions to take on teaching duties. The enemy will not give us much time either,” the Third Hokage calmly analyzed.

"What did you say?! You old geezer! If we don't make changes, more people will die. You'd rather waste your manpower and resources on stupid Wood Release experiments than..."

Tsunade's expression changed, and she angrily started cursing. The fact that a genius like Bai Yu appeared in the medical training program meant that this system was worth promoting.

"Tsunade, watch your attitude!" Mitokado Homura interrupted Tsunade. Both sides had valid points, but right now they needed to establish a foothold to defeat Sunagakure.

The village has established an advantage in the war against Sunagakure, but it is still uncertain whether Iwagakure will launch a sudden attack. Although the possibility is slim, they need to avoid this situation and therefore strive for a swift victory.
