Chapter 270: My girlfriend wants to go through the backdoor? Chiyo: I'm numb!
The morning glow was just rising.
After entering July, the air seemed to become hot and dry.
And Fujiwara Tetsuya!
After an entire night of Ninjutsu research, he had only just fallen asleep.
He was pulled out of bed by Uchiha Mikoto and Torune Ryoui, who had arrived one after another.
"Ryoui, with your current position in the Medical Division... do you still need to participate in the promotion assessment?"
Holding the breakfast Fujiwara Sachiko had just delivered.
After taking two bites, Fujiwara Tetsuya paused.
He then looked at Torune Ryoui, who was quietly drinking miso soup.
"Wait..."
"Ryoui, you came to find me so early... You're not trying to get in through the back door, are you?"
Looking at Torune Ryoui's slightly shy face, Fujiwara Tetsuya understood.
His guess seemed to be correct.
Although as a man, encountering such a thing brought a strong sense of accomplishment!
But for Fujiwara Tetsuya, it always felt a bit strange.
"That's right."
"Tetsuya-kun, you also know that Lady Orochimaru is in charge of this promotion assessment."
"If it were Lady Tsunade, or other seniors, I would have full confidence in passing this promotion assessment."
"However, if it's Lady Orohimaru, I really don't have that much confidence."
"You see, Lady Orochimaru is an unpredictable Ninja who never plays by the usual rules."
"So... for this promotion assessment, I'll have to trouble you for your care, Vice-Commander."
After giving a playful look.
Torune Ryoui felt a sharp pain on her face.
Turning her head and seeing Uchiha Mikoto's meaningful gaze, she felt her mouth go dry.
Her expression immediately became much more serious.
Don't misunderstand, she wasn't scared.
It was just that the miso soup earlier was really too salty.
Sorry, Aunt Sachiko.
I really didn't mean to criticize your cooking.
"Cough~ I understand, Ryoui."
"When the assessment comes, I will try my best to look after you..."
"However, you also need to be prepared."
"Because, as of now, I haven't learned the method of the promotion assessment from Senior Orochimaru."
"But, given Senior Orochimaru's personality, necessary combat... should be unavoidable."
If it were Tsunade, or even Jiraiya.
He would most likely choose to greet them in advance.
After all, at the end of the day.
He was also considered the deputy for this grand event.
However, if it was Orochimaru.
Fujiwara Tetsuya... still intended to wait and see.
After all, it wasn't just Torune Ryoui who was afraid of Orochimaru, but him too.
And!
Reikun's favor was not so easy to repay.
"By the way, Mikoto... didn't you just say you had something to tell me?"
"What exactly is it?"
"It can't be the same as Ryoui's, can it?"
"With the arrogant personalities of those Uchiha Old fellows... they wouldn't send you to be a lobbyist, would they?"
Regarding the Uchiha Clan, and several small and medium-sized Shinobi Clans close to the Uchiha Clan, participating in the promotion assessment.
In Fujiwara Tetsuya's eyes, it was no longer a fresh secret.
After all, looking at the current Konoha.
After the Senju Clan declined.
In terms of Shinobi Clan strength alone, the Uchiha Clan clearly had the momentum to be number one.
As long as Hiruzen Sarutobi wasn't blind, he was destined not to abandon the Uchiha Clan's combat power.
"No, it's not the Clan's high-ranking officials."
"It's Qingfeng, Kazuha and the others."
"After arduous training, they now possess the strength to be promoted to Special Jonin and Jonin."
"Tetsuya-kun, if they can be successfully promoted, I will have more say in the Clan in the future."
Uchiha Qingfeng and Uchiha Kazuha, mentioned by Uchiha Mikoto.
Were precisely those members of the Uchiha Clan who accompanied Uchiha Mikoto when he went on a mission to Kong Ninja Village!
They were also the supporters Uchiha Mikoto had secretly cultivated and drawn in over the years.
"Is that so!"
"I understand, Mikoto, I will try my best to help them pass the assessment."
On this matter.
Fujiwara Tetsuya naturally wouldn't be vague, after all, this matter... concerned his future happiness... During the period when Konoha was preparing for the promotion assessment ceremony!
War broke out again in the Land of Rain.
After the Third Kazekage recalled Chiyo from the Land of Rivers battlefield.
He personally led thousands of Sunagakure Ninja to directly break through Hanzo's defense line in the southern Land of Rain, invading the southern region of the Land of Rain.
And Hanzo, on the day he learned of the front line's fall.
Led Saito, and two thousand Amegakure elites, to the front line.
With Ibuse's help, he successfully stalled the Sunagakure army's advance with a large-scale poisonous mist.
Sunagakure Camp.
Unlike the irresistible momentum of a few days ago, the current Sunagakure Camp was shrouded in an invisible gloom.
Although the Third Kazekage had long anticipated the threat posed by the Salamander Clan's poisonous mist and had called Chiyo back in advance.
However.
The Third Kazekage had misjudged the types of poisonous mist the Salamander Clan could release, as well as the time required to develop antidotes for these poisonous mists.
Because of these small errors, no less than three hundred Sunagakure Ninja had lost their lives in the past two days.
"How is it, Elder Chiyo?"
"How is the research on the antidote progressing?"
After a brief battle with Hanzo.
The Third Kazekage returned to the camp with a belly full of anger.
The moment he entered the camp, he went to Chiyo's temporary laboratory.
Looking at the dense array of instruments on the table, and the busy Medical Ninja.
After waiting for a few minutes, the Third Kazekage finally spoke to Chiyo, who was in the middle of an experiment.
"The research progress is not ideal. The Salamander Clan's poisonous mists are all formed by mixing several, or even a dozen, types of toxins..."
"To successfully decipher these poisonous mists and develop corresponding antidotes is not something that can be achieved overnight."
"I need time, and... the current manpower in the laboratory is insufficient; we need to quickly transfer personnel from the Village."
"Third Kazekage, my suggestion is not to launch large-scale battles until these poisonous mists are completely deciphered."
Chiyo's condition at this time was not good either; due to continuous late nights, her eyeballs were covered in bloodshot veins.
"Is that so..."
"I understand, I will quickly transfer personnel from the Village."
"I'll leave the matter of deciphering these toxins to you..."
Although he couldn't defeat Hanzo's main Amegakure force head-on in a short time.
That didn't mean that he, as the strongest Kazekage, had lost the ability to counteract.
In his opinion!
Konoha's strategy of elite squad raids to harass the Amegakure Village's interior after invading the Land of Rain was quite effective.
Moreover, looking at the number of Ninja from both Sunagakure Village and Amegakure Village.
Sunagakure Village clearly had an absolute advantage.
"Hanzo!"
"Since you don't know how to appreciate my goodwill, don't blame me."
"After all, this is war."
