A month? I must perform well so that I can become a full-time employee in a month.

"Great, let me tell you what you need to do first, and then you'll officially start work tomorrow."

Yi Shuihan didn't waste any time and went straight to the point, talking about the precautions. Mighty listened attentively, nodding from time to time, and asking questions when he didn't understand something, until he understood it.

When Yi Shuihan brought Might Guy to Minato Namikaze, Might Guy was still muttering to himself about what he needed to do, trying to reinforce his memory.

"Is that him? He was soaking in the hot spring inside the Black Iron Gate before!" Minato looked at Might Guy curiously, paying special attention to Might Guy's thick eyebrows, and vaguely felt that he had heard something about him before.

"Are there any new guests?" Yi Shuihan asked.

"No!" Minato shook his head.

"I see!" Yi Shuihan murmured. Although he knew that his hot spring resort would definitely not lack customers in the future, he was still a little annoyed that no customers came to his door on the first day of opening.

The only instance of a "consumption" (referring to a donation) was by the Third Hokage, which was a "friendship donation." Might Guy and Minato, who were both "free" (meaning they were not included in the calculation), also don't count.

"Brother Yi, don't worry. This place is so nice, there will definitely be a lot of people coming here in the future. I will also help promote it and bring my friends here," Shuimen comforted him.

At this point, Minato seemed to think of someone and gave a smile that seemed both happy and shy.

"Why are you suddenly making that expression? You've grown up!"

Yi Shuihan's slightly teasing voice rang out, causing Shuimen to freeze instantly. "No, you must be mistaken. I don't have anyone I like!"

"Oh! I don't have anyone I like!"

Minato then realized that he had been too nervous and had let something slip. He stopped talking and looked at Yi Shuihan with a rather resentful gaze.

"Alright, alright, it's not a big deal. It's normal for someone your age to have a crush on someone!" That's true, it's normal. After all, people in this world mature earlier. Damn, there are even people who became Jonin and killed countless people at the age of 7. Isn't this kind of thing easier to accept?

"Let me introduce you. This is Mighty Day, who will be an employee here from now on. You two get to know each other!" Yi Shuihan said, pointing to Mighty Day.

"Hello, I am Minato Namikaze. Nice to meet you!"

"I'm Mighty Day, nice to meet you!"

Minato was indeed skilled; in just a few words, he had unknowingly become close with Might Guy, and they didn't seem to have just met.

It's not that Might Guy was easy to get along with; after all, he was a ninja and had a knack for judging people. It's just that Minato Namikaze genuinely treated him well, which is why he was so easily accepted.

While Yi Shuihan and Minato Namikaze were chatting idly, the Land of Fire was in turmoil. Under the mobilization of the Third Hokage, it had entered a state of war, and various supplies and subsequent support were being mobilized. Even the villagers of Konoha could clearly feel an extremely oppressive atmosphere.

"Nabatsuki! Nabatsuki, how are you? Hang in there! You'll be alright." Tsunade was carrying a pale-faced boy as she moved rapidly up the tree. On the boy's back was Tsunade's summoning beast, which was now keeping him alive.

The boy was Tsunade's younger brother, Senju Nawaki. Unlike in the original story, he was not dead when he was found by the senses, but he was still seriously injured and on the verge of death. Even with Tsunade's methods, she could only delay his injuries at most.

Chapter 278, A Little Knowledge of Medicine

Tsunade hasn't reached her peak yet, and her medical skills aren't as strong as they will be later. It's already quite an achievement that she can barely keep Nawaki alive.

Tsunade had no choice, but she didn't give up. Just because she couldn't do it didn't mean others couldn't. At the very least, she would save Nawaki's life. She would study medicine and there would be a day when she could save Nawaki.

Tsunade was quite lucky; she safely brought Nawaki back to the Konoha hospital.

Senju Nawaki is the only male heir of the Senju clan, holding a very special position in Konoha. As a result, a large number of medical experts immediately appeared around him to provide him with the best possible care.

"Tsunade! Don't worry! Nawaki will be alright." The Third Hokage comforted Tsunade, who looked noticeably more haggard.

"Yes!" Tsunade nodded, but she was clearly not very interested. She felt very guilty, thinking that this was because she hadn't paid enough attention to Nawaki's safety, which led to this incident.

"Teacher, do you have something to say?"

"It's nothing, you should just rest for a few days."

The Third Hokage originally wanted Tsunade to go to the Land of Rain to reunite with Orochimaru and the others, but seeing this, he ultimately didn't say it.

The third generation's words brought a flash of gratitude to her eyes. How could she not know that she shouldn't have stayed here but should have gone to the battlefield?

According to reports, this war was already unavoidable, and she could have made a greater contribution on the battlefield than if she had stayed there.

"By the way, although it might just be my imagination, I feel you should go and see Yi Shuihan. He might be able to help you."

Before leaving, the Third Hokage suddenly spoke to Tsunade.

Several days had passed since Yi Shuihan's hot spring resort opened, but it still hadn't made much progress. In fact, there weren't any real customers. After all, at this time, no one was in the mood to visit his hot spring, especially with all the rules and prices, which deterred several people who wanted to give it a try.

"Yi Shuihan? Him?" The Third Hokage's words made Tsunade thoughtful, and the face of Yi Shuihan appeared in her mind as she pondered.

"Was that kid Hiruzen here just now?"

"Grandma Mito! Nawaki?"

Mito Uzumaki, Hashirama Senju's wife and the Nine-Tails' Jinchuriki, is an ancient figure who founded Konoha and has lived to this day. At this moment, a look of worry appeared in her eyes.

"The situation isn't looking good, but we absolutely must save Rope Tree. If all else fails, that's the only thing we can do..."

Tsunade looked at her grandmother with some confusion, not understanding the meaning of her last words, but she also felt much more relaxed.

"I'll be leaving for a bit, so I'll leave the rope tree in your care."

"Go ahead without worry! With me here, no one will dare to cause trouble."

Mito Uzumaki didn't ask Tsunade where she was going; she still trusted Tsunade implicitly.

As for her so-called final solution, it was actually to transfer the Nine-Tails within her to Senju Nawaki. If successful, she could use the Nine-Tails' chakra to restore Nawaki.

Doing this is not without cost. First, she will be exhausted by losing the Nine-Tails and will not live for more than a few days. Second, Nawaki may not be able to hold on until the seal is successfully sealed.

In fact, she had already chosen the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki, that little girl from her own clan. After all, only someone from their clan was the most suitable candidate for the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki. However, Senju Nawaki was just too important, and in order to save him, Uzumaki Mito couldn't care less about anything else.

Tsunade quickly arrived at the hot spring resort. When she saw the hot spring resort for the first time, her eyes showed surprise. It was really too magnificent.

"Huh, why does it look like there's no one here?" Tsunade wondered, then walked into the hot spring area and saw Might Guy in a black suit.

"You are... Might Guy?" Tsunade asked hesitantly, because the Might Guy in front of her was so different from the one she remembered. In her memory, Might Guy had always been dressed in a green watermelon rind outfit, and it had never changed.

Might Guy, dressed in a black suit, looks very smart, several levels above his usual attire, giving off a high-class vibe.

“It’s me, Lady Tsunade. I’m an employee here now.” Might Guy felt a little uncomfortable under the gaze he was being stared at.

“If you want to soak in the hot springs, you need to know the rules we’ve established. Come, look here,” Might Guy said, walking to the stone tablet with the Iron Rules written on it, intending to explain them to Tsunade.

"I didn't come here to soak in the hot springs, I came to find someone. Is Yi Shuihan here?" Tsunade interrupted Might Guy, but then she saw the ironclad rule on the stone tablet and felt something was off.

No wonder nobody comes here. Who would abide by such strict rules? It's just a hot spring, how can it be like being in jail?

"Looking for the boss?" Matt Day was taken aback, then said, "I'll go ask and see if he'll see you."

"No need, I'm already here."

Yi Shuihan had already noticed Tsunade's arrival. Bored, he naturally didn't mind chatting with a beautiful young woman to pass the time.

Upon seeing Yi Shuihan, a hint of joy flashed in Tsunade's eyes. She then said, "I've come to ask for your help. I wonder if you know any medicine?"

"Medical skills?" Could it be for her brother? Yi Shuihan instantly realized, pondered for a moment, and said, "I do know a little about medical skills, but I don't know what specific help you want me to provide?"

Tsunade was somewhat disappointed by Yi Shuihan's answer; this half-baked response was not what she had hoped to hear.

"My younger brother is seriously injured and is currently receiving treatment. Since your medical skills are only rudimentary, you probably won't be of much help. I'll be going now."

"Wait, who said I can't help! Although I only have a smattering of medical knowledge, it doesn't mean I can't save people! I won't boast, but as long as they have a breath left, even if I can't fully restore them, I can at least keep them alive."

"Isn't this just bragging?" Matt Day muttered to himself.

"Don't joke about this."

Tsunade's expression turned slightly cold; she was somewhat angry.

"I'm not joking, believe it or not is up to you."

Chapter 279, The situation is tricky, I only have five solutions.

Yi Shuihan's expression, which didn't seem like he was lying, made Tsunade hesitate for a moment.

After all, it concerned the life of her beloved younger brother, Nawaki, so she had to fight for even the slightest hope.

Tsunade's expression softened, and she said in a slightly pleading tone, "Then would you like to come with me to take a look?"

"Well?" Yi Shuihan drawled, seeing Tsunade's anxious expression, he couldn't bear to tease her any longer. "That's fine too!"

"Then let's go!"

Tsunade reached out to pull Yi Shuihan, indicating that she was indeed very anxious.

"Wait, I haven't finished speaking yet. There are some things that need to be clarified first." Yi Shuihan could have dodged the hand that was reaching out to him, but he didn't. How could he refuse such a good thing that was delivered to his doorstep!

"What exactly happened?! Can't you go save people first?"

"Since you're in such a hurry, we can talk as we walk."

Yi Shuihan turned to Matt Dai and said, "Then, I'll leave this place to you. I'll be back soon."

"Don't worry, I will definitely protect this place, boss."

Matt Dai said seriously.

Yi Shuihan and Tsunade ran wildly through the streets. To accommodate Tsunade's pace, Yi Shuihan slowed down and followed easily beside her.

"There are some things I'll tell you now. It's not that I can't save people, but I'm not a professional rescuer. I'm the owner of the hot spring resort. Saving people for you would go against my personal principles. After all, if my amazing medical skills were exposed, people would come to me for help, which wouldn't be good. I don't plan to open a clinic."

"Don't worry, not many people will know about this. I'll protect you from those people!"

"Well, also, my fees are very high! If it doesn't cure the problem, that goes without saying, but if it does..."

"Once you're cured, I'll give you whatever money you want."

"It's not about the money. I only have one condition: after you cure Rope Tree, you need to become an employee of my hot spring resort. Might alone is not enough."

Finally revealing his purpose, Yi Shuihan quietly watched Tsunade's constantly changing expression, awaiting her reply.

"Employees? No problem, as long as it helps Rope Tree recover." Hmph, I'll agree first, and then I'll decide what happens next. At worst, I'll stay for a few days, and if I perform poorly, I'll make Yi Shuihan kick me out.

They say they can't handle everything by themselves, even though they don't have a single customer. They're really good at talking big.

Yi Shuihan was naturally unaware of Tsunade's inner thoughts, but even if he did, he wouldn't care. He had plenty of ways to make Tsunade stay obediently.

If it weren't for witnessing the awe-inspiring 106-point foul, he wouldn't have invited Tsunade!

"Alright, the terms are agreed. Now you just wait and see how I perform!"

In Rope Tree's room, Rope Tree was completely wrapped up like a mummy and was still unconscious.

When Yi Shuihan and Tsunade arrived, Mito Uzumaki and several other elders were discussing something outside the door.

"Tsunade, you're back. Who is he?"

Upon seeing Tsunade, Mito Uzumaki stopped talking.

She didn't know Yi Shuihan. Because of her advanced age, she had long since retired and didn't care much about the affairs of Konoha. Unless something major happened, no one would bother her.

"He is Yi Shuihan, and he can heal Rope Tree," Tsunade explained.

Upon hearing this, Mito Uzumaki raised an eyebrow, clearly not believing that Yi Shuihan possessed such great abilities.

"Lady Tsunade, you must have been tricked by him! Don't make things worse. We know Nawaki's condition. If he's not careful and his injuries worsen, he'll be beyond saving."

The one speaking was an elderly man with gray hair standing to the side. He was Takeji Nai, and he was very knowledgeable in medicine.

Takeji's words made Tsunade hesitate. Looking at the unmoved Yi Shuihan, she gritted her teeth and said to Mito Uzumaki, "Grandma, I believe in him. Let him give it a try!"

Mito Uzumaki looked at Tsunade, who remained steadfast, and after a moment of silent confrontation, finally nodded. "Alright then, but we'll have to keep an eye on things from the sidelines, just in case anything goes wrong."

"Lady Mito, don't believe it..."

"Let him try. With us watching over him, nothing should go wrong."

Takeji Nai wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Mito Uzumaki.

Finally, under Takeji's somewhat unfriendly gaze, Yi Shuihan entered the room and met the protagonist of this incident, Senju Nawaki.

Yi Shuihan walked up to the Thousand Hands Rope Tree, placed his hand on it, and used his mind to sense its condition. To others, it looked like Yi Shuihan was just sitting there with his hand on the Thousand Hands Rope Tree, lost in thought.

That's right, they were just spacing out. Because Yi Shuihan's methods were too advanced for them to understand, they could only think that way.

Even Tsunade, who had initially had a lot of confidence in Yi Shuihan, began to have doubts. She clenched her fists so tightly that her fingernails pierced her palms, and she didn't even notice the blood flowing down her face.

"Sigh!" Suddenly, Yi Shuihan raised his hand and sighed.

"Now you've shown your true colors! If you didn't want to get anything done, you shouldn't have come."

Takeji said in a sarcastic tone, "Logically, I shouldn't be so hostile to Yi Shuihan, but if Yi Shuihan really succeeds, I won't get the benefits I want. Mito Uzumaki promised me that if I could cure Senju Nawaki, she would secure me a position in the upper echelons of Konoha."

Yi Shuihan didn't even glance at him, but instead said to the disappointed man, "What's wrong with you? It's not a big problem. I was just lamenting that even such a small issue requires my personal intervention. Konoha really has no one left to deal with."

"What? You mean the rope tree's problem isn't serious, and you can cure it?"

Tsunade looked pleasantly surprised.
