Chapter 230: Clashing Hands with Sakura! Are you alright?!
After resolving Sasuke's matter, Yoru returned to a state of idleness.
Seeing that Yoru had nothing to do every day, Tsunade asked him to go to Konoha Hospital to teach the medical ninjas there medical ninjutsu.
Meanwhile, thanks to Ye Yu's assistance, Xiao Li's surgery was very successful, allowing him to recover to his pre-injury condition.
It was during this surgery that Tsunade realized that Yoru's medical ninjutsu skills were now almost on par with her own.
This is because Yoru didn't put much effort into this aspect.
Furthermore, because Yoru's control and perception of chakra are far superior to Tsunade's, Yoru was in charge of many of the precise procedures during the surgery.
It was precisely because Yoru solved those surgeries that Tsunade could only think about but couldn't perform before that Rock Lee was able to return to his original state.
So, Yoru received another salary from Konoha Hospital.
He also took this opportunity to hone his medical ninjutsu.
In just one month, Yoru's medical ninjutsu skills surpassed Tsunade's.
Even when discussing medical ninjutsu with Yoru, Tsunade struggled a bit.
Many medical ninjutsu techniques are unbelievable even to Tsunade, but Yoruha can do them.
Yoru's medical ninjutsu is so outrageous that as long as you have a breath left, Yoru can save you and even restore you to your pre-injury state.
Afterwards, Yoru's reputation for strong combat skills did not spread in Konoha, but his medical ninjutsu became widely known.
This resulted in Ye Yu having to see a large number of patients every day.
Thus, the title of Yoruhae Konoha's number one medical ninja spread.
And since it was personally confirmed by Tsunade, the rumors spread even more widely.
Jiraiya originally planned to take Naruto on a tour of the ninja world after Sasuke's matter was resolved, but Yoru's strength made him change some of his plans.
Although he still intended to take Naruto away from the village, he allowed Naruto to continue his mission with Kakashi's team for a period of time before taking him away.
On this day, Kakashi's team arrived in the Land of Rice Fields to carry out a mission.
After completing the mission, Kakashi's team was preparing to return to Konoha.
Orochimaru then dispatched the Sound Four to capture Sasuke.
In a forest in the land of fields.
The Sound Four and Kimimaro, who was now terminally ill, surrounded Kakashi's team.
Looking at the group, Kakashi said with a serious expression, "These people are Orochimaru's subordinates. They appeared during the Chunin Exams."
"Yoba was right after all, Orochimaru is still alive."
Sasuke stood beside Kakashi, having already drawn his kunai and assumed a fighting stance.
He said warily, "Teacher Kakashi, I wonder if Orochimaru will be here."
If it were only these few people, Sasuke wouldn't be afraid.
Kakashi here is an elite Jonin. He is an elite Jonin, and when he enters Sage Mode, he is at the Kage level. Naruto is at the level of an ordinary Jonin, but when he summons Gamabunta, he is at the level of an elite Jonin.
Although Sakura is the weakest, she still possesses the strength of an elite Chunin.
If a fight breaks out, Sasuke really doesn't take these few Otogakure ninjas seriously.
Kakashi looked at the Otogakure Four and Kimimaro, and said solemnly, "Otogakure Village is in the Land of Rice, and Orochimaru is very likely here."
"Just be careful."
With Sasuke behind him, Naruto looked at one of the Sound Four ninjas opposite him and said, "Kakashi-sensei, Sasuke, should we go and get rid of Orochimaru?"
Kakashi and Sasuke, who were still analyzing the situation, were completely dumbfounded.
He looked at Naruto with a shocked expression.
They didn't expect Naruto to be so reckless.
They all feared Orochimaru immensely, yet Naruto actually said he wanted to eliminate Orochimaru.
It's crazy.
"Naruto, Orochimaru is very powerful, one of the Legendary Sannin, and he's not someone we can challenge right now."
Naruto recalled the scene of Yoru killing Orochimaru and said, "Of course I know he's strong, but the four of us are definitely strong enough to kill him."
Kakashi rejected Naruto's crazy idea.
He began to arrange a battle plan. "Naruto, you will have no problem dealing with the two ninjas in front of you, right?"
Naruto slammed his fist on the other hand and said confidently, "Don't worry, Kakashi-sensei, leave it to me."
Kakashi knew Naruto's strength, and he didn't think that Kidomaru and Tadashi in front of Naruto were a match for him.
Kakashi looked at Sasuke and said, "Sasuke, you're in charge of dealing with that boy. He's probably the strongest ninja among these five."
Kakashi looked at Kimimaro.
Kimimaro then took off his clothes, twisted his neck, and looked at Sasuke.
"Is this the body that Lord Orochimaru wanted? How lucky I am to be Lord Orochimaru's reincarnation."
Kimimaro felt disappointed because his ailing and disabled body prevented him from becoming Orochimaru's reincarnation.
In his heart, Orochimaru was the purpose of his life.
After Kakashi finished speaking, Sasuke set his sights on Kimimaro, or rather, he had his sights on Kimimaro from the very beginning.
He could sense that Kimimaro was the strongest of the five.
Moreover, their strength is probably not much weaker than his.
Sasuke's senses were correct. Although Kimimaro was terminally ill, he could still exert the strength of an elite Jonin, or even approach Kage level, if he risked his life.
Not only does he possess the Corpse Bone Pulse, but his physical skills are also extremely high, in no way inferior to Xiao Li, who specializes in physical skills.
Sasuke nodded, looking at Kimimaro with a serious expression.
After their eyes met, they both acknowledged each other's strength.
Even though the two of them had not fought each other, just by testing each other's momentum at the beginning, one could already get a general idea of the situation.
Kakashi then added, "Sakura, stay with me. You'll help me deal with the remaining two."
Sakura's strength isn't weak, but she's the weakest in the team, and she's only a Chunin.
However, Sakura's genjutsu and taijutsu are very suitable for support, while Kakashi's combat requires consideration of chakra, which makes him hesitant to use ninjutsu casually.
Sakura's physical skills and illusion techniques made up for his weaknesses.
Sakura's taijutsu wasn't as formidable as it would become later, but it was already quite advanced. One punch from her could shatter a person's bones. For an ordinary ninja, being hit by one of her punches would definitely mean certain death.
Sakura knew that she wasn't strong enough to be the main attacker at the moment, so she said, "Don't worry, Kakashi-sensei, I'll assist you."
After the division of labor was determined, the group looked at each other for a while before taking action.
Several afterimages flashed by.
Neither side used ninjutsu at first.
Instead, they engaged in a physical combat exchange.
However, a major unexpected event occurred right at the start of the battle.
Because Sakura was the only girl in the team, and none of the other members thought much of her.
Therefore, they looked down on her.
So right from the start, they actually clashed with Sakura in a physical combat exchange.
Sakon and Ukon were tasked with dealing with Kakashi, while Jirobo was the weakest and relied mostly on brute force for his ninjutsu.
So he went to deal with Sakura.
He immediately threw a punch at Sakura.
Jirobo's burly body was much stronger than Sakura looked.
Sakura was stunned when Jirobo punched her.
Jirobo thought Sakura's expression meant she was terrified.
"Girls are useless, I'll take care of one first."
Jirobo sneered.
But before his fist even touched Sakura, Sakura's surprised expression instantly turned into a mocking one.
Jirobo didn't know why Sakura was like this, but he didn't think Sakura had any chance of being alive.
