Passing the Buck? I'm a Professional Too!
When Yamanaka Kei was watching anime in his previous life, he actually quite disliked the Torifu Koharu and Mitokado Homura duo.
He even sometimes felt that the two were like Shimura Danzo's lackeys.
But after truly living in this world for more than ten years, he gradually overturned his original fixed impressions of the two.
These two people are truly rare good people among the Konoha higher-ups!
Mitokado Homura is upright and has his own bottom line.
Although because he thinks too much, he often worries that other people are not doing things well and asks all sorts of questions, leading to a bad image of wanting to interfere in everything.
But in reality, he only ever gives suggestions and doesn't interfere. That's what he should do as a senior advisor.
Torifu Koharu, as a disciple of Tobirama Senju, has collectivist ideology engraved in her bones.
She is old-fashioned, serious, and speaks harshly, but she truly puts the village first.
She can be the first to propose exterminating the Uchiha when they threaten the village, and she can also question Danzo about where he was during the Nine Tails' chaos when Danzo opposes Sarutobi Hiruzen resuming his position as Lord Hokage.
The reason why the two of them were able to live until the era of non-combustibles and still hold the position of Konoha senior advisors.
It's not just because of their status as disciples of Second Hokage Tobirama Senju.
The reason why they are hated by many people is simply because they didn't stand with the protagonist to mess around.
The early Naruto was all about 'bonds' and 'ninja way', and often regarded Konoha's ninja management regulations as nothing.
Saying he was going to chase Sasuke, no one could stop him. Saying he was going to find Orochimaru, no one could dissuade him.
Konoha is, after all, a military organization.
It would be strange if Torifu Koharu and Mitokado Homura could stand on the same line with such disorganization and lack of discipline.
Don't you see that after Naruto grew up, he changed his previous unfriendly attitude towards the two and was respectful to them on weekdays?
It's not that these two have made any changes.
It's that the grown-up Naruto realized that without rules, nothing can be accomplished.
To protect Konoha, one must first maintain Konoha's rules. If everyone messes around, Konoha will fall apart.
As for Tsunade...
Zhuangzi said: Do not advise others to be kind without experiencing their suffering. If you experience my suffering, you may not be as kind as I am.
Tsunade had no parents when she was young, and her family only consisted of her great-grandfather, great-great-grandfather, Grandma Mito, and younger brother Nawaki.
Her great-grandfather went out to fight someone to protect Konoha in his early years, and because of his injuries, he died before she grew up.
Before a few years had passed, her great-great-grandfather went out to sign a covenant with someone to protect Konoha, and he died again.
Her younger brother said he wanted to become Lord Hokage to protect Konoha one moment, and the next moment he was gone.
She finally met a warm man who said he wanted to become Lord Hokage to protect Konoha, but he died in front of her during a mission.
She just returned to Konoha to seek comfort from her grandmother, and her grandmother said she wanted to protect the Konoha left behind by her grandfather, and when she transferred a Tailed Beast, her grandmother was also gone!
This is the Xu Fugui of the Naruto world!
Yamanaka Kei, putting himself in Danzo's shoes, really felt like he couldn't handle it.
If it were him.
He wouldn't necessarily hate Konoha to the point of grinding his teeth, but from then on, he would definitely be allergic to "protecting Konoha."
If anyone dared to mention it to him.
He would have to dig up their family tree and make them protect Konoha one by one.
So regarding the friction between Tsunade and Torifu Koharu.
He actually wanted to say to Torifu Koharu: I know you're doing it for Konoha's sake, but let her go, her family register only has one page left!
The farce in the ward didn't last long.
Under Sarutobi Hiruzen's already masterful persuasive skills, Torifu Koharu, who had just had a conflict with Tsunade and felt a little embarrassed, directly bid farewell and left.
Mitokado Homura, seeing that there was nothing else he was needed for, simply went out with her.
The two walked to the door, politely nodded to Yamanaka Kei, and then turned to leave Konoha Hospital.
"Can we start now?"
Shimura Danzo, seeing that those in the way had left, immediately urged.
He couldn't help but be anxious about this matter!
He had already done a detailed examination at the Root base, but those medical ninja couldn't find the cause.
Orochimaru also said that he was powerless.
The Fire Temple had sent an old monk named Chukaku a few days ago, who was also helpless with his condition.
Several Root ninja who went to the Land of Demons to ask the Priestess didn't even see the Priestess's face, but only received a hint: 'The one who tied the bell must untie it.'
Did he not know that the caster could undo the technique?
The key was, who was the bastard who cast it?
"Examination results."
Tsunade wasn't in the mood to waste time with Danzo here and immediately got into the state.
Aburame Ryoma, who was beside her, immediately presented a stack of examination reports that was more than an inch thick.
Tsunade quickly looked through the data, her brows gradually furrowing.
"A negligible rejection reaction, cell activity degradation caused by natural aging of the body, no abnormal Chakra reaction, the problem is obviously not in the body, I am powerless to do anything about this."
Tsunade only flipped through a dozen pages before directly stating the diagnosis.
"...No further examination?"
Shimura Danzo was clearly unable to accept such a result.
And Yamanaka Kei, who was at the door, looked thoughtfully at the other party's term interface upon hearing this.
Seeing the blue term [Single-Eyed Three Tomoe] that was originally ranked first disappear.
Indeed, he thought to himself.
To dare let Tsunade examine and treat him in detail, how could this old geezer not have his Sharingan dug out?
"Elder Danzo, there are no problems with your body. Further examinations will yield the same results. As for the situation you're experiencing, I suggest you consult an expert in Yin Release."
Tsunade's gaze drifted towards Yamanaka Kei, who was peeking in at the doorway.
Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen in the sickroom subconsciously followed her gaze.
Shimura Danzo's expression darkened even further.
Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only step forward and beckon Yamanaka Kei to come in.
"Kei, you should know something about Elder Danzo's condition, right?"
"Tsunade-nee had briefly mentioned it."
Yamanaka Kei cursed inwardly at Tsunade for not playing fair.
He had only come to laugh at Danzo and see if he should send the guy some system-exclusive local products to vent the anger of Gai Liu Zi's unjust death.
Just because this older sister didn't want to deal with Shimura Danzo, she couldn't just pass the buck to him!
He was the real mastermind behind the scenes!
"What do you think?"
The Third Hokage didn't find anything wrong with Tsunade's words.
If there were no problems with Danzo's body, where else could they look but towards Yin Release, which involved spiritual power?
And the Yamanaka Clan were experts in Yin Release, with Yamanaka Kei being an elite member of the clan.
Not only was he skilled in the clan's secret techniques, but he also had extremely powerful Genjutsu.
Who else could they ask if not him?
"Lord Hokage, no matter how Yin Release changes, it still requires Chakra to activate the technique. Elder Danzo's situation..."
Yamanaka Kei put on a conflicted expression.
Such obvious hesitation naturally couldn't escape the Third Hokage's eyes.
"You can speak frankly."
"When I was learning the Evil Sealing Method, I saw some records from the Warring States period about the God of Death who could seal souls, the Zouma who devoured memories, the Mouryou who wielded the power of darkness..."
Yamanaka Kei tried to shift the blame further away.
Upon hearing these words, both Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo frowned.
That kind of power was not something ninjas were good at.
"Ahem... of course, it's not like there's no way to resolve Elder Danzo's situation."
Yamanaka Kei changed his tone again.
Years of accumulated experience told him that when it came to shifting blame, a little guidance was enough.
People tend to believe what they see and the results they come up with themselves.
Saying too much might make people suspect him instead.
"What method?"
A hint of imperceptible anticipation flashed across Danzo's dark face.
"Isn't Elder Danzo always getting his head attacked? Learn a secret technique similar to the Water Transformation Technique, so even if his head explodes, he can still recover."
Yamanaka Kei proposed the best solution.
Whether it was the Third Hokage or Danzo, they were both silent at this moment.
Water Transformation Technique.
Without the bloodline of the Hozuki Clan, who the hell could learn that thing?
