Chapter 11 - Seeing Tsunade Again  

"Tsk..."

"Although I knew this day would come, seeing it with my own eyes really makes me unhappy!"

Looking at the many children in the camp, who were obviously only around ten years old, Li Anshi's expression was clearly unpleasant.

On the battlefield in the Land of Wind, the ninjas led by the Uchiha clan, although they suffered considerable casualties in the battle with the Sand ninjas, did not complain to the village.

Even if they needed more ninjas, they were transferred from within the clan, without adding any burden to the village.

Therefore, Li Anshi did not see any ninjas younger than twelve on the battlefield in the Land of Wind.

However, after arriving at the battlefield between Konoha and the Cloud ninjas, Li Anshi discovered at least a hundred ninjas under the age of twelve in the camp.

Obviously, this was because the ninja clans had suffered considerable losses in the battle with the Cloud ninjas, and they were unwilling to send more ninjas from their families to the battlefield, lest the family decline due to excessive losses.

In this case, the civilian ninjas from the Ninja Academy came in handy.

Regardless of the strength of these civilian ninjas, they could also make the opposing ninjas consume some kunai, destroy some traps...

At the very least, they could also consume some of the enemy ninjas' chakra, increasing the chances of victory for their own ninjas.

For the current ninja clan ninjas, they did not enter the Ninja Academy to study and interact with civilian ninjas, forming friendships and bonds.

Therefore, in the eyes of these ninja clan ninjas, civilian ninjas were almost equivalent to consumable "cannon fodder" like kunai and shuriken.

Li Anshi wandered around the camp and saw many civilian ninjas with missing arms and legs, groaning in the medical tent.

If they were ninja clan ninjas, injuries of this degree would have been sent back to the village as "heroes" to publicize their bravery in battle and increase the support of the Konoha villagers for the ninjas.

But as civilian ninjas, they needed to shed their last drop of blood on the battlefield.

Only when the war ended could these civilian ninjas get their lives back and become retired ninjas.

"Sigh..."

After letting out a sigh, Li Anshi entered the tent and came to a wounded person, extending his hand.

Green chakra appeared on Li Anshi's palm.

Li Anshi did not know medical ninjutsu, but the chakra he used as "inner energy" also had a certain healing ability.

Although Li Anshi couldn't achieve limb regeneration like Tsunade's "Hundred Healings Technique," he could still make the injuries of these wounded people heal faster and alleviate their pain.

Thus, as Li Anshi's time in the tent increased, the groans of the wounded in the tent gradually weakened.

The injured ninjas looked at Li Anshi, who was busy, with gratitude in their eyes.

In present-day Konoha, although there were medical ninjas, they had not yet formed a complete system.

The strongest in medical ninjutsu was Koharu Utatane, a disciple of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.

The Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, could be called the number one genius in the ninja world.

Throughout his life, he invented many powerful ninjutsu.

It was once said that if you didn't know who the creator of a powerful forbidden jutsu in the ninja world was, you could put the name of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, on it. It wouldn't be 100% correct, but it would be at least 70-80% correct.

This showed the talent and brilliance of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.

Honestly, if Tobirama Senju hadn't died so early, Li Anshi suspected that his future achievements might not have been inferior to Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.

Tobirama Senju might have already created the general framework of medical ninjutsu, but the training of medical ninjas was much more difficult than that of ordinary ninjas.

Didn't Tobirama Senju himself only train one Koharu Utatane?

Therefore, the medical ability that Li Anshi was currently displaying in this tent, although not as good as the A-rank medical ninjutsu Mystical Palm Technique, was not inferior to the Healing Jutsu.

"Thank you, sir."

Every time he treated a ninja, Li Anshi received a sincere thank you.

After nodding to this ninja, Li Anshi looked at Tsunade, who had come to his side at some point.

"Long time no see, Lady Tsunade. When did you get here?"

"I came when you started treating these ninjas."

Honestly, Tsunade was very happy to see Li Anshi again.

Even though her grandmother had said that Li Anshi's strength was very strong, she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, and Li Anshi hadn't sent any news back. Therefore, Tsunade didn't know if Li Anshi was truly safe.

This time, when she came to the front line with her teacher, Tsunade didn't expect to meet Li Anshi here.

However, after seeing Li Anshi healing these injured ninjas, the excitement of seeing a familiar person again gradually turned into silence.

"Then let's go out for a walk, so we don't disturb their rest here."

"Mm."

It had been a year since they last met, and Tsunade had grown a lot taller.

However, Li Anshi's body, nourished by chakra's inner energy, had developed relatively quickly.

Although he was only fifteen years old, his height was not inferior to that of an adult.

A year ago, five-year-old Tsunade's height almost reached Li Anshi's waist.

A year later, Tsunade seemed to have gotten shorter, her height only reaching Li Anshi's thigh.

"Tch!"

Feeling this, Tsunade clicked her tongue.

"You seem very unhappy."

After walking with Li Anshi for a while, Tsunade spoke.

"Ah, isn't that obvious? Who would be happy to see so many children being dragged onto the battlefield?"

Li Anshi said in a low voice, "Tsunade, do you know what I was thinking when I saw so many children on this battlefield?"

"What is it?"

"Should I go kill Hiruzen Sarutobi, and then seize power in Konoha by force?"

"What? You want to kill Master Hiruzen and seize power by force?"

Hearing Li Anshi's words, Tsunade couldn't help but exclaim, and then quickly covered her mouth, looking around to make sure there was no one nearby before relaxing.

"Anshi, are you crazy? Konoha is the village that my grandfather and great-uncle established with their lives. I will absolutely not allow you to do that!"

Tsunade ran a few steps to Li Anshi, and said to Li Anshi sternly.

"I know, so I'm just saying."

"Whew..."

Seeing this, Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Tsunade then asked Li Anshi in confusion, "Anshi, why do you have such great hostility towards Master Hiruzen?"
