Naruto: Nawaki was already dead, how could you bring him back to life?

After a brief explosion, seven or eight Sand Village ninjas leaped out of their hiding place, grinning as they charged toward the Konoha members who had been ambushed.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"Lord Orochimaru, what should we do now?!"

The roars of his subordinates came one after another, but Orochimaru seemed not to hear them.

"Nawaki-kun... I promised Tsunade I would take good care of you..."

The battlefield is ever-changing, and without Orochimaru's coordination, the team members were thrown into complete chaos.

"I'll provide cover; you guys take charge of moving the wounded!"

"Damn it, everyone, follow me and let's wipe out these Sunagakure scum!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill! Avenge our brothers Rope Tree!"

"Damn it, where's the medical team? Did they crawl here?! Why the hell aren't they here yet?!"

Chapter 2: Everyone get out of the way, I'm about to unleash my cheat!

"This is Hiroshi Nohara. Medical Team 13 is in position. Where are the wounded?"

"Why are you taking so long to get here?! Come with me quickly, there are many brothers who need medical treatment!"

When Chiba and the others arrived at the battlefield, the battle was already over, and the wounded were gathered together in a camp.

Although transferring the wounded may cause secondary injuries or even death, it is still better than leaving them on the battlefield to die. At the very least, they can be left with a complete body, right?

"Phew, thank goodness, I don't have to use ninjutsu to save people on the battlefield."

Many medical ninjas, including Chiba, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"It hurts, it hurts so much..."

"My hand, my hand is gone! Ughhhhh!"

Chiba followed Hiroshi Nohara into the tent, and as he listened to the painful wails around him, his eyes became even more determined.

"To survive in this chaotic world, to avoid being slaughtered by others, I need to possess sufficient strength!"

"let me see……"

Chiba's gaze swept over the wounded, trying to find anyone worthy of his "Miraculous Healing" technique. He urgently needed to improve his self-preservation capabilities on the battlefield!

After examining it closely, Chiba's eyes were fixed on a stretcher, and he couldn't look away.

"That's...!!"

Despite the boy on the stretcher being charred black and almost burned to a crisp, Chiba still managed to identify him.

Thousand-hand rope tree!

That unfortunate kid who was the only one in the original storyline to die from an explosive tag!

Chiba immediately became excited.

Nawaki inherited a quarter of Hashirama's bloodline, and he's on the verge of death. Isn't he the perfect candidate he's looking for?!

"Kaleidoscope! Celestial Body! Here I come!"

Chiba strode quickly toward Nawaki's stretcher, his eyes almost shining.

Just then, a figure suddenly blocked Chiba's path and whispered, "Chiba, change your target, ignore him for now."

Hiroshi Nohara, a seasoned veteran, noticed Nawaki the moment he entered the camp and quietly checked on Nawaki's situation.

Nearly 80% of his body was burned, and his internal organs were almost completely crushed by the shock of the explosion...

It's a miracle that this kid still has half a breath left; there's no way to save him!

If it weren't for his special status, he probably wouldn't have been carried back as an injured person; he would have been put to a coffin long ago.

"Listen to me, Chiba," Hiroshi Nohara said in a low voice. "There are so many wounded here, let's find someone else. Don't make trouble for yourselves."

Rope Tree is a hot potato right now, and he doesn't want his team members to take over.

“Team Leader Nohara, I know you’re worried about me, but I’m fairly confident I can save him. Please let me try.”

Chiba smiled bitterly. He didn't want to experience any scenes of showing off or getting slapped in the face. He just wanted to get the reward smoothly and survive. But his age seemed to be adding a lot of obstacles to him.

"You...ah..."

Looking at Chiba in front of him, Hiroshi Nohara sighed heavily, recalling his past stubbornness. After hesitating for a moment, he finally stepped aside.

"Thank you, Nohara-gumi-senpai!"

Chiba walked past Hiroshi Nohara, strode over to Nawaki's stretcher, opened his medical kit as a cover, and then focused all his attention on the system.

"Team leader, he's a newbie who hasn't been studying medicine for very long. What kind of confidence can he possibly have? Are you just letting him mess around like this?!"

At that moment, a medical ninja approached Hiroshi Nohara and spoke with some displeasure.

Clearly, Hiroshi and Chiba weren't the only ones who noticed Nawaki's identity; they just kept it to themselves.

Seeing that Hiroshi Nohara remained silent, the medical ninja continued, "If Lady Tsunade blames us for this, our group will definitely be implicated, and then..."

"Shut up, Wu Gang!" Hiroshi Nohara snapped. "Healing and saving lives is the essence of medicine. If you don't have the guts to do it, then don't hinder others from fulfilling their duties!"

"There are so many wounded people waiting for treatment right now, do you have time to gossip here?"

"...Yes, I understand, Nohara-gumi-sama."

Wu Gang's face turned pale and then red, and he slunk away to treat the wounded. Hiroshi Nohara also left the tent with a cold snort, obviously having other matters to attend to.

Meanwhile, just as Chiba was figuring out how to use "Miraculous Healing," a cold voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Who gave you permission to touch Nawaki-kun's body?"

Danger! ...

Chiba felt a chill run through his body, and his consciousness instantly returned to reality. He felt as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake, with a thorn in his back!

"Could it be...?"

Chiba slowly turned around, revealing a cold and stern face. The other person's golden vertical pupils were filled with icy coldness, and the strong smell of blood emanating from him was overwhelming.

"O...Orochimaru!"

Seeing the most monstrous character in Naruto step out of his memory and into reality, standing right in front of him with a sinister look on his face, Chiba's heart skipped a beat.

"Lord Orochimaru, I..."

Before Chiba could explain, Orochimaru said coldly, "Get lost, stay away from Nawaki!"

Even if Tsunade came, she couldn't save Nawaki from his current state. This damned guy was just trying to use Nawaki to put on a show.

Orochimaru had seen far too many opportunists like Chiba, and he would never allow such a despicable person to taint Nawaki's body!

"Haha, this is going to be good!"

Wu Gang, standing to the side, wore a gloating expression, intending to watch Qianye suffer. He wasn't the only one with this thought.

Chiba is far too young. No one would believe that a teenager could claim to have superb medical skills and do things that adults like them cannot. They would only feel disgust and aversion towards this child!

Raging, raging, raging!

Orochimaru had just slaughtered more than a dozen Sand Village ninjas, and his murderous aura enveloped Chiba as if it were a tangible force, making it hard for Chiba to breathe.

"How can it be repaired?"

Chiba gritted his teeth and did not back down an inch.

He knew that if he missed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he might never encounter it again... and he might not even live to see another one. He absolutely could not give up!

"Oh?"

Seeing that Chiba did not move aside but instead stubbornly stood still, a strange light flashed in Orochimaru's eyes.

Even ordinary Jonin might not be able to withstand his pressure, yet this boy in front of him actually...?

"Our first rule of medical ninjas..."

Chiba gritted his teeth, trying to control his trembling body and keep his voice steady: "The first rule of our medical ninja code is that we must never give up on treatment before confirming that a teammate is dead."

Chiba met Orochimaru's gaze and said, enunciating each word clearly, "So, Lord Orochimaru, please don't interfere with my rescue, okay?"

(OωO?)! What?!

Chiba's words shocked everyone present.

Some of the wounded even forgot their pain, staring wide-eyed at Chiba in disbelief.

They had only one thought in their minds: "Does this kid have a death wish? How dare he talk back to Lord Orochimaru, who has no human emotions?!"

Even Orochimaru himself was stunned.

At this moment, Chiba said again, "I know what you think of me, but it doesn't matter. I can't just watch my comrades die without trying anything!"

With the system backing him up, Chiba planned to act recklessly this time.

After uttering those resounding words, Chiba completely ignored Orochimaru, turned around, and walked straight to Nawaki's stretcher once again.

He was afraid that if he waited any longer, the Rope Tree Man would be cold...

"I'm taking this reward today. Even if the Rubik's Cube planner came, he wouldn't be able to keep me. I said it!" Chiba thought through gritted teeth.

"..."

Orochimaru fell silent. He saw a deep reverence for life in Chiba's eyes, which deeply moved him.

With his keen insight into people's hearts, he could see that the boy before him truly wanted to save Nawaki...

This was entirely your own doing!

At this moment, fearing being implicated, Wu Gang in the crowd tried to distance himself from Chiba: "If Lord Nawaki gets into trouble because of you, you..."

"Shut up, don't disturb him!" Orochimaru turned around and coldly reprimanded him.

Wuhan Iron and Steel: "???"

The people at Wuhan Iron and Steel were dumbfounded. Orochimaru-sama was just about to kill Chiba, so why did he suddenly change his attitude?!

"They say women are fickle, but Orochimaru-sama is even more fickle than a woman... Damn it, Chiba, it's all your fault!"

Wu Gang looked grim, as if he had just swallowed a lump of jerk from his thesis defense.
