Chapter 39 - I, Uchiha, support Tsunade!

"Oh, you mean this?"

Tsunade picked up the proposal document, her expression turning serious, and said, "Now that the war has entered its mid-to-late stages, Ninja often need to go deep into enemy territory in small teams to carry out long-term missions."

"And at this time, if they suffer serious injuries and cannot receive timely medical treatment, there is a very high risk of death, or even mission failure."

At this point, she suddenly paused, frowning: "But in reality, these injuries could be completely avoided if there was a Medical Ninja in the team to perform some simple treatment."

"Therefore, I believe that the most urgent task now is to cultivate Medical Ninja and develop medical facilities to provide effective logistical support for these mission teams."

In fact, Tsunade had already noticed these problems when she was on missions before.

It wasn't until the war broke out later, causing a large number of avoidable casualties, that she became even more convinced of her idea.

And when Nawaki almost died in an accident, she completely implemented her idea.

She wanted to take advantage of this Jonin meeting to have Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi implement these measures.

"But to be honest, given the current wartime situation, it will probably be very difficult for the proposal to be approved."

She knew very well that her teacher, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was the type who would never do anything he wasn't confident about.

Therefore, she was not confident in her own proposal.

In fact, her thoughts were very accurate; in the original work, Hiruzen Sarutobi really did reject her, causing Tsunade to completely lose her composure.

As a result, the blue-haired bitch took advantage of the situation and found an opening.

Takeshi, who knew all this, naturally would not allow such a thing to happen again.

"Teacher, I believe you can do it!"

In the original work, there was another main reason why Tsunade fell so quickly.

That was, at the time, the only person who supported Tsunade was Kato Dan.

This sudden ray of sunshine in a moment of isolation touched Tsunade's soft heart, making her instinctively believe he was that special person, which is why she was deceived by him.

Now that Takeshi was here, of course, he had to prevent the other party from being special again.

"No matter the outcome, I will always support you!"

Tsunade subconsciously froze slightly.

Looking at Takeshi's serious expression, she felt her heart skip a beat for some reason.

The last person who would unconditionally trust her was her recently deceased grandmother, Uzumaki Mito.

"Teacher, you weren't so moved by what I just said that you can't speak, were you?"

Takeshi waved his hand in front of her.

Tsunade immediately came back to her senses, sat up straight, her back leaning slightly forward, a heavy burden pressing down, and Takeshi could even smell a faint fragrance.

"You brat, your teacher isn't that fragile!"

"I don't believe it..."

Takeshi pouted.

If you were really that strong, you wouldn't have been tricked by that blue-haired bitch.

"Hey, you rebellious disciple, watch me teach you a lesson!"

Tsunade pulled him into her arms, and Takeshi immediately felt a sense of suffocation.

He finally managed to break free, barely escaping being suffocated to death.

At the same time, Takeshi suddenly noticed a piercing gaze directed at him from the shadows.

Takeshi looked in that direction and saw Kato Dan, who was sitting across the aisle with blue hair, staring at him with resentful eyes.

Oh, you're showing your true colors!

I knew you couldn't be that simple!

In his opinion, Kato Dan was a hypocritical villain whose ambition was sky-high but whose strength couldn't keep up with his ideals.

He shouted slogans loudly, wanting to become Hokage, protect the Village, and protect everyone.

But in reality?

He only knew the Spirit Transformation Technique, a purely support ability.

If there weren't powerful Ninja to protect him, let alone saving others, he would be the first to be taken out.

If he became Hokage, when the Village encountered a crisis, the shadow of the Village, while protecting the Village, would also need to find a Ninja stronger than himself to protect the Hokage. Isn't that purely ridiculous?

Moreover, he himself did not have the background to be considered for Hokage.

He was born a commoner, and after becoming a so-called Jonin, he remained outside of Konoha's power structure.

His performance in battle was also very average; he couldn't stand on his own at all.

If in the original work, he dated Tsunade and never thought of using her as a bargaining chip for his Hokage aspirations, Takeshi would absolutely not believe it.

If he were really that simple, how could he intentionally target Tsunade, a person with an incredibly powerful background?

If you insist it was simply admiration for her, then Takeshi truly had no response.

But anyway, as long as he was here today, there was absolutely no way that bitch would have a chance to get close to Tsunade!

Tap, tap, tap—

Soon, Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi and his two Hokage Advisors, Homura Mitokado and Utatane Koharu, walked in.

They took their seats at the front, and the meeting was officially declared open.

The Jonin one by one presented their opinions and ideas.

Third Hokage and the two Hokage Advisors nodded repeatedly but gave no direct response.

They either equivocated or simply refused to approve anything.

Immediately after, Tsunade stood up.

She reiterated the ideas she had just discussed with Takeshi to the Hokage and his two Advisors.

But, as expected, she was rejected by Hiruzen Sarutobi, the reason being, as Takeshi had anticipated, that the Village's resources and manpower were strained, so it could not be implemented.

"What a joke, you old geezer!"

The current Tsunade had not yet experienced the major blow of her younger brother's death, so she did not appear as emotionally out of control as in the original work.

But she still felt a surge of anger.

In her opinion, the root cause of many Ninja deaths was the lack of timely medical treatment.

If every team had a Medical Ninja, the survival rate could be greatly increased.

In fact, this idea was completely correct.

But unfortunately, a correct idea was proposed at the wrong time.

During wartime, even children had to go to the front lines; there was no time to train Medical Ninja.

If the plan were to be slowly implemented after the war ended, it would be perfectly feasible.

However, none of this was important; Takeshi's only goal was to prevent the little blue-haired guy from approaching Tsunade.

So, no matter how mature Tsunade's suggestion was at this moment, he would be the only one to support Tsunade's proposal today.

As Tsunade's emotions gradually became agitated, Takeshi noticed Kato Dan on the other side of the aisle also starting to stir.

He clearly wanted to use this opportunity to get closer to Tsunade, but Takeshi would not give him a chance to show off.

He decisively stood up and said in an incredibly firm tone:

"On behalf of the Uchiha Clan, I support Lady Tsunade's opinion!"

As soon as these words were uttered, the entire room was stunned, and everyone looked at Takeshi.

The Uchiha Clan was a major clan in Konoha Village.

This support was incredibly significant, far beyond what a good-for-nothing like Kato Dan could offer...
