Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

It took me almost half an hour to make just one dish, which is a real waste of time.

On the battlefield, there's no time to waste.

Lian Ye had never been on the battlefield, so she guessed everything based on the worst-case scenario, which was bound to be correct.

If it's not as cruel as he thinks, then having time to cook isn't a big deal.

If it's really as he thinks, then we'll eat soldier's rations.

Although Renye is very picky about food, she has no choice but to compromise in the face of war, as survival is the most important thing.

Secondly, it's time to enjoy the food...

Lianye stood up, looked at the half-eaten meat slices on the table, and prepared to send them to that old bastard, Senju Tobirama.

There's not enough time now, so delivering it in person is impossible.

Just send the food with your shadow clone.

In fact, he didn't want to use shadow clones, but he didn't have time, so he had no choice but to resort to this tactic.

In recent years, he has rarely used the Shadow Clone Technique.

Because his clone has some problems...

Lian Ye formed a hand seal and created a shadow clone.

"Take the food to Uncle Tobirama."

Upon hearing this, the shadow clone chuckled and said, "Oh, Tobirama-san, huh? The real body seems to care quite a bit about that old guy."

"Looks like you two have really developed feelings for each other. When are you going to call each other 'father'? Should I call him for you?"

Hearing the shadow clone's sarcastic words, Lian Ye's face darkened; she knew this situation would arise.

"Haha, you're getting impatient, you're getting impatient..."

Before he could speak, Lian Ye deactivated the shadow clone.

"I'm speechless, I've run into another freak."

He created another shadow clone, but fortunately, this clone didn't cause any trouble.

Without Lianye's instruction, they began packing the food into the food box.

Seeing this, Lian Ye nodded in satisfaction.

Realizing that time was running out, he picked up the Wugou from the table and turned to leave.

As the team leader, Lianye could not afford to make such a basic mistake as being late.

The shadow clone paused, watching Renya's departing figure, and looked puzzled: "The main body seems to care a lot about Senju Tobirama."

Logically, as clones, they should share the same thoughts as the original.

For some reason, Renya's clone seems to have some problems, especially when it comes to matters concerning Tobirama Senju, where it becomes extremely rebellious.

This is also why he has been unwilling to use shadow clones all these years.

…………

Hokage's office.

The shadow clone kicked open the office door.

Senju Tobirama, who was processing documents, frowned upon hearing the noise, but his brow relaxed when he saw that it was Renya.

"Lianye, what brings you here?"

However, he soon discovered that it was just a shadow clone.

Looking at the food box in his clone's hand, Tobirama Senju's lips curled up slightly.

Did you cook yourself a meal before going to the battlefield?

The shadow clone's next words immediately froze the smile on his face.

"Old man, your food is here. Eat slowly, or you'll choke."

The clone slammed the food box onto the table, and before Tobirama could react, it vanished with a bang.

Only Tobirama Senju remained, staring at the food box on the table, his eyelids twitching wildly.

------

Konoha gate.

As the clone actively canceled, Lianye received this memory and sighed helplessly.

"This guy is no pushover either."

It seems best to use shadow clones less often in the future...

As for the shadow clones, I'll explain that to Tobirama Senju later.

At this moment, Shimura Danzo and Utatane Koharu were already waiting at the door.

The three of them left Konoha Village under the cover of night.

P.S.: Thank you to the amazing user 【千举飛剞橋橋樹】 for the certification!

Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival. Do you think I can really manage to update six times a day? I don't have any drafts saved up.

I'm now twelve chapters behind, sob sob...

Chapter 117 The Genius Poison Maker

The southwestern battlefield of the Land of Fire.

"Lord Honwa, the Sand Ninja have currently ceased their offensive."

Inside the tent, upon hearing his subordinate's report, Commander Nara Motokazu's solemn expression eased, and his tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed.

What were the casualties last night?

"Returning to the capital, sir, a total of eighty-three people were injured or killed last night. Among them, twenty-seven died and fifty-six were seriously injured."

Upon hearing this, Nara Honwa's brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again, and he said in a deep voice, "Why are the casualties so severe?"

The war has only just begun, and the casualty ratio has already reached this level. This is undoubtedly a very dangerous situation.

It should be noted that those participating in the battle are all mid-to-high-end combat forces from the village.

Such a number of casualties will definitely put a lot of pressure on the village.

It's not apparent now, but as the war continues, more and more ninjas will die.

By then, there will be no one available at the front.

He needs to figure out the specifics in order to find a solution.

"Lord Honwa, the poison developed by the Sand Village is very potent, and we have yet to find a way to counteract it."

"Aren't there medical ninjas at the front lines?" Nara Honwa frowned. "Can't they remove the poison?"

Medical ninjas are considered highly skilled professionals in all countries.

In war, besides Jonin, the most valuable are medical ninjas.

Even medical ninjas can be more effective than regular Jonin...

On the battlefield, injuries are unavoidable.

Without timely treatment, even a powerful ninja would face certain death.

Therefore, medical ninjas play a very important role on the battlefield.

Konoha Village places great importance on training medical ninjas, and those who are sent to the front lines are the most elite.

Nara Honwa felt that with their medical expertise, developing an antidote should be a piece of cake.

We've fought Sand Ninja before. While they're skilled in poison, they're not so powerful that their attacks are insurmountable...

But what his subordinate said next stunned him.

"Lord Benhe, the antidote developed by the medical department can only slow down the spread of the toxin; it cannot completely cure the disease."

"If we can't develop an antidote soon, our injured comrades will..."

He didn't continue, but Nara Honwa understood the meaning behind his words.

"Why has the Sand Village's poison suddenly become so potent?" Nara Honwa's face was ashen.

"Notify the medical department: develop an antidote no matter what!"

Without an antidote, the injured comrades would be in mortal danger.

More of their companions will be injured later.

If the problem is not resolved in time, the southwestern battlefield where he is stationed will fall sooner or later.

Nara Honwa summoned three ninja from the reconnaissance squad and ordered them, "Investigate the origin of this poison from the Sand Village and find out who developed it."

"Received!" The three received their mission and left.

He didn't stay idle; he left the camp and went to the medical department.

The medical department had dozens of tents for the wounded to rest in.

Inside one of the tents, the air was thick with the sour stench of herbs mixed with rotting flesh.

Dozens of ninjas lay on their beds, groaning incessantly, their festering wounds turning bluish-black.

The medical ninjas were busy moving about among them.

"Senior Gray, has the antidote not been developed yet?"

Hui Gu Mianyin shook her head. "Not yet. This poison is a bit special and needs more time."

Upon hearing this, the medical ninja could only use medical ninjutsu to maintain the condition of the wounded.

The poison from Sunagakure is very special; ordinary antidotes are completely ineffective.

Their only hope is that Senior Gray will develop an antidote...

Just then, battlefield commander Nara Motokazu lifted the curtain of the tent and entered.

He looked at the wailing wounded and instinctively clenched his fists.

The situation here was worse than he had imagined.

If no solution can be found, we can only watch helplessly as these wounded soldiers die in agony.

More ninjas will be injured and die...

As the commander, I absolutely cannot allow this to happen!

The medical ninjas noticed Nara Motokazu, but no one greeted him; they were all focused on using medical ninjutsu to alleviate the pain of the wounded.

This method only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. It can only suppress the toxins for a short time, and the symptoms will recur soon.

Nara Honwa approached Haiko Nemune and whispered, "Hasn't an antidote been developed yet?"

"No, it will take time." Hui Gu Mianyin didn't even look up. "The poison used by the Sand Ninja this time is very special and will be difficult to cure in a short time."

Nara Honwa, his face ashen, turned and left the tent.

He's not a medical ninja, so staying there won't do him any good; in fact, it might even hinder the treatment of the wounded.

As soon as he stepped out of the tent, a ninja rushed over.

"Lord Honwa, the Sand Ninja have launched another attack!"

Nara Honwa's face darkened. They hadn't yet developed an antidote for the Sand Ninja's poison, and now the enemy had launched another attack.

If an antidote is not developed in time, more of our companions will be poisoned.

He immediately ordered: "Pass down the word, prepare to meet the enemy!"

…………

The Sand Ninja camp, located fifty miles from the southwestern battlefield.

"Hahaha, as expected of the village's genius toxicologist!"

The Sand Ninja Commander looked at the silver-haired girl in front of him with admiration.
