Naruto: You Call This A Medical Ninja?

Chapter 380: **Chapter 380: The Plan Is Carried Out, Danzo Is Sure!**



The plan Reiki presented to Tsunade was far from simple—it was comprehensive, multi-layered, and addressed issues beyond what a typical medical ninja would even consider. 

At first, Tsunade couldn't help but wonder if Reiki harbored ulterior motives. But as she delved deeper into the details, she realized that his ultimate goal was simply to ensure Konoha's well-being. His ambition was to treat others and improve the village. 

Classic Reiki.

**Tsunade's Resolve**

"Alright," Tsunade said, her voice firm. "If this is what you've set out to do, I'll give you my full support. Tell me what you need." 

Reiki smiled, grateful for her trust. "Teacher, I hadn't factored in your involvement since you were away. But now, there's something only you can handle." 

He pulled out a blank scroll and quickly wrote down instructions. 

"You want me to go to the Uchiha clan?" Tsunade asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes," Reiki replied. "Before Uchiha Madara's reappearance, it's best for someone of your stature to establish communication. Given the history between the Uchiha and Senju clans, only you can bridge the gap. Your lineage and reputation make you the perfect choice."

Tsunade hesitated for a moment before nodding. She realized he was right. Her presence carried the weight needed for such a sensitive matter. 

"Alright," she agreed. "But you stay out of this for now. Let me handle the Uchiha."

With that, Tsunade disappeared, her resolve firm.

Reiki sighed in relief. "With the teacher handling this, I can focus on the next steps. Time to see how Orochimaru performs."

**A Small Village in the Land of Fire**

Danzo stood amidst a group of shadowy figures, his expression sour as he eyed the gathering. Orochimaru had brought him to meet a group of hired ninjas led by Kakuzu and his companions.

"This is the 'assistance' you promised me?" Danzo sneered, his skepticism evident. 

"Don't underestimate them," Orochimaru replied with a sly grin. "Their strength is on par with your Root operatives, but they operate in the shadows, leaving no traces. Perfect for what we need."

Kakuzu stepped forward, his cold gaze sweeping over Danzo. "We're here to assist, not babysit. Our mission is to stall Konoha's strongest ninja, not to play politics."

The group consisted of over 100 experienced mercenaries—battle-hardened ninjas who thrived in the shadows. Their collective murderous aura was palpable, enough to unnerve even Danzo.

**Danzo's Suspicion**

"So," Danzo asked, his tone laced with distrust, "what's the cover story? Are we storming Konoha outright?"

Kakuzu chuckled darkly. "Your funds aren't nearly enough for that. We'll follow the plan: create diversions and neutralize Konoha's elites while avoiding unnecessary risks. The rest is on you."

Orochimaru elaborated, his voice dripping with amusement. "This isn't about brute force, Danzo-sama. The plan revolves around Sarutobi Hiruzen leveraging Uchiha Madara's return to cement his position as Hokage. If we play this right, the chaos will weaken his control."

Danzo's eyes widened as Orochimaru detailed the intricate plan, including the involvement of Kumogakure's Raikage. Orochimaru had even promised one of Uchiha Madara's eyes as compensation to the Cloud ninjas.

Danzo listened, the shock on his face growing with each revelation. By the time Orochimaru finished, Danzo was speechless.

**Danzo's Decision**

"Orochimaru," Danzo said after a long pause, his voice steady but wary. "You must have your own agenda in all this. What do you want?" 

"The same thing I've always wanted," Orochimaru replied smoothly. "The position of Hokage. And I trust you'll honor your promises."

Danzo smirked. "Hah! I admire your ambition. Very well. If this plan succeeds, I'll ensure you get what you're after." 

With their agreement solidified, Orochimaru disappeared, leaving Danzo to oversee the mercenaries.

**Kakuzu's Warning**

After Orochimaru's departure, Danzo handed over several chests of money to Kakuzu as a deposit. Kakuzu signaled his group to move out.

"Hooked," Kakuzu muttered under his breath. 

As they walked away, one of his companions, Iron Tower, grinned. "This time, can we go all out?"

Kakuzu's cold eyes narrowed. "You're free to fight as much as you want. But be warned—this mission involves Uchiha Madara."

"I've heard of him," Iron Tower scoffed. "The so-called 'ninja demon.' Isn't he just a decrepit relic of the past?"

Kakuzu's voice turned icy. "Underestimate him, and you'll die."

**Back in Konoha**

Reiki returned to his home, his mind racing with plans. Between Uchiha Madara's reintegration, the dismantling of Root, and stabilizing Konoha's leadership, he had little time to rest.

A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. Opening it, he found an ANBU operative standing before him.

"Hokage-sama wishes to inquire about the monthly potion supplies," the operative said.

Reiki sighed. "I've already explained—my teachers are out of the village. My resources are limited. Tell Hokage-sama to wait."

Without waiting for a response, he shut the door and returned to his work, muttering to himself. "Hiruzen… what are you trying to accomplish?"

**Danzo's Anticipation**

Back in the village, Danzo could barely contain his excitement. Orochimaru's plan was meticulous, and with the hired mercenaries at his disposal, Danzo felt confident in his position. 

Unbeknownst to him, every step he took played perfectly into Reiki's greater design. The pieces were falling into place, and soon, Konoha would be reshaped in ways no one could have anticipated.
