Chapter 120: Danzo's Enlightenment

Renye stepped forward to examine the injuries on the wounded.

He had never seen the effects of this poison before, only making guesses based on the appearance of the venom.

Upon examination, it was exactly as he had expected.

"Renye Jonin, how is it? Is there a solution?" Nara Honwa asked anxiously.

"It's nothing serious..."

Renye calmly took out a small porcelain bottle from his Ninja tool pouch and poured out a red pill.

He handed the pill to the poisoned Ninja in front of him, "Eat it."

The Ninja on the sickbed difficultly took the pill and, without any hesitation, put it into his mouth.

As the pill entered his stomach, it wasn't long before the pain on the Ninja's face eased, and he stopped wailing.

"How do you feel?" Renye inquired.

"I... I'm much better! My body doesn't hurt anymore." The Ninja's ashen face began to turn rosy.

For days, he had been tormented by the poison, in such agony that he could only watch as the flesh on his body gradually rotted.

This torment nearly made him collapse, wishing he could end his own life.

Seeing this, Nara Honwa excitedly grabbed Renye's hand, "Renye Jonin, I'm entrusting these wounded to you!"

He had only approached with a 'let's just try' mindset, not expecting Renye to actually have a solution.

"I understand." Renye expressionlessly withdrew his hand.

Nara Honwa awkwardly scratched his head and chuckled:

"My apologies, I was too excited."

Renye handed the porcelain bottle to Nara Honwa, "Distribute these antidotes to those with the most severe injuries; for the rest, wait until I develop new antidotes."

Nara Honwa took the porcelain bottle, puzzled, "Isn't this an antidote?"

"It is an antidote, but using it to cure this level of poison would be too wasteful."

This pill was an antidote for the poison Renye had developed.

Using it to cure Sand Ninja's poison was like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.

Although whether the poison Renye developed had an antidote was no longer important, as anyone who was hit would immediately die from the poison, he still subconsciously developed an antidote.

Nara Honwa excitedly took the antidote to treat the wounded.

Haigu Mianyin, who was researching antidotes, heard the commotion and thought the treatment had failed.

She put down the herbs in her hand, preparing to go prevent the spread of the toxins.

Then she saw those wounded who had been tormented to the point of wishing for death, now all showing joyful smiles, their faces also turning rosy.

She stood rooted to the spot, her eyes filled with disbelief.

At this moment, the previous medical Ninja came forward and excitedly said, "Senior Haigu, the antidote has been developed!"

Hearing this, Haigu Mianyin finally came back to her senses.

"You mean, that young man just now developed the antidote?!"

Without waiting for an answer, she went to a sickbed and began to examine the wounded person's body, shocked to find that the toxins had completely disappeared.

"How is this possible?!"

She wanted to find the young man from earlier, but he was no longer in the tent.

.........

Inside the Commander's tent.

"Renye Jonin, the medicinal ingredients you need are ready." Nara Honwa placed dozens of types of medicinal ingredients on the table.

Renye nodded and began to develop the antidote.

Danzo Shimura and Utatane Koharu helped him as assistants.

Both of them looked at Renye with shock.

They hadn't expected Renye wasn't boasting; he really could create an antidote!

As long as Renye was here, the Sand Ninja's poison would no longer be a threat.

Their survival rate on the battlefield would significantly increase...

Danzo Shimura's face showed emotion; this guy truly was a genius!

But soon, he began to worry again.

Renye developing an antidote and saving many lives would definitely earn him a lot of merit!

Having just arrived on the battlefield, Renye had already gained merit.

With his strength, by the time the war completely ended, the merit he gained would definitely far exceed his own.

With Renye around, could he really become Hokage?

Thinking of this, Danzo's expression grew uglier and uglier, a hint of undetectable jealousy flashing in his eyes as he looked at Renye, and he secretly clenched his fists.

No! I absolutely cannot be left behind by this guy!

Gaining merit on the battlefield wasn't difficult; killing enemies could earn a certain amount of merit.

As long as he killed enough enemies, he could close the gap with Renye, and perhaps even surpass Renye...

Renye was diligently developing the antidote and was unaware of Danzo's thoughts.

If he knew, he would definitely scoff.

What's so good about being Hokage?

Power is nothing in the face of strength.

As long as one's own strength is great, the entire Ninja World will have to obey you.

Just like Senju Hashirama in the past, if he wanted the Ninja World to be at peace, the Ninja World would be at peace.

As for those who didn't listen, they had long since been beaten to death.

Not long after, Renye developed hundreds of antidotes.

Nara Honwa's mouth almost split into a grin when he saw so many antidotes.

With these antidotes, Konoha would no longer need to be so hesitant.

"Renye Jonin, I will truthfully report your contributions on the battlefield to Hokage-sama!"

After speaking, he hurriedly left the tent with the antidotes.

"Renye-kun, what do we do next?" Utatane Koharu asked.

It seemed Nara Honwa hadn't assigned them any tasks from the beginning.

Danzo Shimura looked at Renye and said righteously:

"Our comrades in the Village are fighting the enemy on the front lines, we cannot sit idly by here. I propose we go to the battlefield to support our comrades!"

Renye was a bit surprised; when did Danzo's awareness become so high?!

Was this still the selfish, unscrupulous "Konoha Scapegoat" he knew?

This righteous demeanor almost made Renye think he was under a genjutsu.

Utatane Koharu also looked at Danzo in shock, as if she were meeting Danzo for the first time.

Seeing their expressions, Danzo clenched his fists, "Our teacher once taught us that protecting the Village and our comrades is our duty!"

Of course, he couldn't tell them that he just wanted to go to the front lines to kill enemies and earn merit, to prepare for inheriting the Hokage position in the future...

Hearing Danzo's explanation, Renye suddenly understood.

He wondered why Danzo's awareness was so high; it turned out he had been brainwashed by that Old Man Senju Tobirama.

It must be said, the Hokage lineage really had a knack for brainwashing people.

The most successful was undoubtedly the fire will promoted by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Even Senju Hashirama probably wouldn't have imagined that his theory could be widely spread in later generations.

Danzo grew anxious when Renye didn't react.

You have merit now, but I don't!

Without merit, even if he became Hokage, he wouldn't be able to convince the masses.

Thinking this, Danzo quickly urged, "Renye, make a decision quickly!"

Seeing Danzo's stubbornness, Renye felt a bit helpless.

This guy was really heavily brainwashed by Senju Tobirama...

But since he had said so much, he had no reason to refuse.

"In that case, let's head to the front lines for support!"
