Watching Tsunade's serious expression, Minamikawa Yuu couldn't help but chuckle. "What do you need money for?"
"To gamble, of course!"
Tsunade said as if it were only natural. "You just called me the god of gambling, so naturally, I have to go gamble."
"That damn Grandpa Tobirama not only confiscated all my New Year's money but also forbade me from gambling. Once I grow up, I'll definitely..."
A figure appeared behind Tsunade at that moment, standing there silently and without a sound.
Minamikawa Yuu tried his best to signal Tsunade with his eyes, but unfortunately, she was full of excitement and completely failed to realize his meaning, continuing to shout enthusiastically.
"Definitely what?"
It wasn't until a cold voice came from behind her that she suddenly shuddered.
"Gra... Grandpa Tobirama?"
She looked at Senju Tobirama standing behind her as if she had seen a ghost.
"Instead of learning something useful, you spend all day pondering your gambling tricks."
Senju Tobirama looked at Tsunade with a cold expression. "Big Brother's face is being completely disgraced by you."
"What do you mean?"
Tsunade looked defiant. "Clearly, Great-Grandpa gambles himself."
Senju Hashirama was just like Tsunade, also a gambling addict.
Tsunade's gambling career had actually started with Senju Hashirama.
But facing Senju Tobirama's cold gaze, she suddenly didn't dare to say another word.
Senju Tobirama was different from Senju Hashirama.
The latter could happily mingle with children, but Senju Tobirama was not so easy-going.
He wouldn't hold back on the discipline that was needed.
"I actually think Lady Tsunade's little hobby is quite fine," Minamikawa Yuu spoke softly from the side. "Life is very long; it would eventually be boring if one only performed missions. Having some entertainment once in a while is a good thing."
"Right?"
Hearing Minamikawa Yuu's words, Tsunade's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly.
"She isn't just seeking a little entertainment."
Senju Tobirama shook his head.
Others might not know what kind of character Tsunade had, but how could he not know?
Given Tsunade's situation, if she weren't disciplined, she would sooner or later become a degenerate gambler.
Of course, looking at the later situation, even if he disciplined her strictly, it probably wouldn't be of much use.
"Forget it."
He looked at Tsunade and shook his head. "You go first."
"I still have some matters to handle."
Tsunade looked at Minamikawa Yuu, winked at him, and then quickly ran off.
Soon, only Minamikawa Yuu and Senju Tobirama were left.
"That child hasn't had many friends since she was young. If you have time, you can interact with her more."
After Tsunade left, Senju Tobirama looked at her retreating back, and his gaze couldn't help but soften slightly. "If possible, keep an eye on her so she doesn't keep breaking the prohibitions."
The current Tsunade could be described as a problem child.
Of the Three Prohibitions of Shinobi, she was breaking two at the same time.
Not only was she a gambler, but at such a young age, she had already taken a liking to drinking.
Looking at it in the long run, things didn't look too good for the future.
"Yes, I will," Minamikawa Yuu nodded with a smile. "Lady Tsunade is a very good person."
"I hope you can still think that later."
Senju Tobirama shook his head, noncommittal about Minamikawa Yuu's words.
"I've already read your proposal from some time ago; it was indeed well-written."
After the topic of Tsunade, he changed the subject, his face showing a look of admiration. "Konoha does indeed need a group of professional Medical Ninja."
"I've thought about it for a while, and you are the most suitable candidate to lead this Medical Squad."
"What do you think?"
The current Konoha had not been established for long, and everything within it was not yet perfected.
For instance, much of the Medical Ninja system was advocated and perfected by the later Tsunade.
Right now, Tsunade was still just a child of a few years old, so naturally, it hadn't developed to that point yet.
So some time ago, Minamikawa Yuu took the initiative to propose the construction of a complete Medical Ninja system within Konoha to better maintain the Village's operations.
Senju Tobirama had already read that proposal and greatly admired much of its content.
In his view, that proposal was already quite complete; without a certain level of ability and vision, one wouldn't be able to write such a thing.
In this regard, Minamikawa Yuu's vision was undoubtedly already very high, far exceeding that of ordinary people.
To Senju Tobirama, this was undoubtedly even more rare than Minamikawa Yuu's talent as a shinobi.
"I am not old enough, and I fear I may not be able to command respect."
Minamikawa Yuu pondered for a moment before speaking. "However, if Hokage-sama gives me this opportunity, I am willing to try and do my best to handle this matter well."
"It's good that you have this intention."
Senju Tobirama nodded. "Among the current Medical Ninja in the Village, you are the strongest."
"I believe you can do this well."
Just like his previous operations, after this reincarnation, Minamikawa Yuu once again displayed his superb ability in Medical Ninjutsu, building himself into an absolute genius in the field.
There was no other way; this persona was truly useful.
No matter where, Medical Ninja were respected. Not only did they often hold high status, but they also didn't have to go to the battlefield to fight and kill.
It was the same now.
In the current Konoha, the training system for Medical Ninja had not been officially established, and even institutions like the Medical Squad did not yet exist.
There weren't many Medical Ninja in the entire Village.
Under these circumstances, with Minamikawa Yuu's current level, he actually already had the reputation of being the number one Medical Ninja.
"Go then."
After chatting with Senju Tobirama for a while, Minamikawa Yuu bowed respectfully and left the place.
Behind him, Senju Tobirama looked at Minamikawa Yuu and fell into thought.
From the time Minamikawa Yuu was born until now, he had always kept an eye on this genius of the Uchiha Clan.
In his view, this Uchiha genius was very special.
The other's talent as a shinobi was very high. At just a young age, the Chakra in his body was already quite vast, and the awakening level of his Sharingan was also very high, reaching the three-tomoe level at only ten years old.
His overall strength was very powerful; he could be considered an elite even within the Uchiha Clan.
But by the standards of the Uchiha Clan, he was undoubtedly an outlier.
From birth until now, he had always behaved very peacefully and quietly.
Senju Tobirama had once observed him secretly in the Ninja Academy.
He was friendly to everyone, and even in school, he cared for his classmates; he was a very warm-hearted person.
Anyone who met him would think he was a gentle and peaceful child.
It's just that while this style would be fine elsewhere, it was a bit too bizarre within the Uchiha Clan.
The vibe was a bit off.
However, for Senju Tobirama, this was also a good thing.
The more approachable he appeared, the more he would be able to integrate into the collective of Konoha.
When he truly grew up and could lead the entire Uchiha Clan, perhaps he would become the opportunity for the Uchiha Clan to truly integrate into Konoha, becoming a bridge of communication between the Uchiha Clan and Konoha.
Just like his student Kagami.
"Unfortunately, his age is a bit inappropriate."
Thinking of Uchiha Kagami, he couldn't help but feel a bit of regret.
In terms of shinobi talent and genius, Minamikawa Yuu's performance was actually far above that of Uchiha Kagami.
If possible, Senju Tobirama would be willing to take him as a student and train him as a future high-level leader of Konoha.
Unfortunately, the other's current age was too small; if he were to take him as a student, it would be somewhat inappropriate.
It would be more appropriate to let Sarutobi and the others do it.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and then he turned around and left the place.
From that day on, Konoha's Medical Department was officially established.
Like the Anbu, it was also an institution directly under the Hokage.
Minamikawa Yuu was in charge of the entire Medical Department, becoming the first person responsible for this department.
In this regard, it could be said that he had soared to the top in one step, going directly from an ordinary person to a member of Konoha's leadership.
One must know that even the Uchiha Clan Head currently only held the title of Head of the Guard Division.
Minamikawa Yuu's status as the Head of the Medical Department was, to some extent, already on par with the status of the Head of the Guard Division.
However, at the moment, the Medical Department had just been established and had not attracted much attention.
In the short term, his status could not yet be compared to those established figures.
Minamikawa Yuu didn't mind this situation and was happy to hide in the background and build up his reputation.
Unfortunately, even though he wanted to build up his reputation in the background, many people still set their sights on him.
On this day, after the Uchiha Clan meeting ended, the Uchiha Clan Head summoned Minamikawa Yuu alone.
"Yuu."
The Uchiha Clan Head looked at Minamikawa Yuu with a complicated expression. "Senju Tobirama let you lead the Medical Department; what do you think of it now?"
"In what aspect do you mean, Clan Head?"
Minamikawa Yuu's face was calm as he asked back.
"His intentions."
The Uchiha Clan Head spoke. "And his purpose in putting you in charge of this department."
"Lord Tobirama's intentions might not be that complicated."
Minamikawa Yuu spoke softly. "It's nothing more than preparing for war."
"War..."
Hearing Minamikawa Yuu's words, the Uchiha Clan Head's pupils constricted.
From the time the First Hokage Senju Hashirama established Konoha Village until now, the Ninja World had been peaceful for over a decade.
The major Ninja Clans had also enjoyed peace for over a decade and had now become somewhat complacent.
Could it be that now, war was really going to break out again?
"That doesn't seem surprising, does it?"
Minamikawa Yuu smiled. "In the past, wars were between one Ninja Clan and another because the powers of the past were individual Ninja Clans."
"Now, individual Ninja Clans have disappeared, and everyone has gathered together to form Villages."
"But there will still be disputes between Village and Village; it's actually no different from the past."
"It is still different."
A trace of gloom flashed in the Uchiha Clan Head's eyes. "If a war breaks out between Village and Village, the scale of the battle will likely be much greater than in the past."
Past wars broke out between Ninja Clans.
Now, it was between nation and nation.
If a war were to break out now, it would inevitably surpass the former in scale.
