"Is there something behind this?" Minato instinctively reached out to pull it back, but Xin shouted, "Stop!" Unfortunately, it was too late-Minato had already lifted the white cloth.
Upon seeing what lay behind it, Minato shuddered, dropping the cloth as if he'd been shocked. He turned back to the medical ninja who had tricked them with an exasperated look.
"Hahaha..." The medical ninja laughed heartily. "It's been a while since I've come across such amusing kids like you. Just messing with you a bit. But since you're here to help, you'll need to get used to all of this. By the way, who brought you here?"
"Tsunade," Xin replied, feeling somewhat irritated.
"Oh, Tsunade, huh?" The medical ninja continued to treat the patient's wounds, applying a layer of ointment to the poor man's body. The patient would undoubtedly be left with pockmarked skin, resembling a honeycomb once he was fully healed.
It was then that the medical ninja suddenly paused, his hands frozen in place as he processed the name. He looked up in surprise. "Who?"
"Tsunade," Xin repeated, shrugging as if it was no big deal.
"Did Tsunade-sama bring you here?" The medical ninja asked again, wanting to be sure. "Yes, Senpai. We came to the camp with Tsunade-sama," Minato replied politely.
"Hahaha, that's great!" After standing there stunned for a few seconds, the medical ninja suddenly jumped up like an excited child, nearly hitting the tent's roof. "This is fantastic!"
Has this guy lost his mind? Minato instinctively moved closer to Xin, whispering, "What's wrong with this senpai?"
"How would I know?" Xin shot him a look, we both came here together-how am I supposed to know why he's acting like this?
Xin guessed that the medical ninja was so happy because Tsunade was back and the medical unit's backbone had returned. But was it really necessary to get this excited? Tsunade had only been gone for about ten days.
Even before, Tsunade rarely stayed in camp. Most of the time, she was on the battlefield with Orochimaru and Jiraiya, fighting the enemy. She only came back to help make antidotes or treat severely injured shinobi.
After laughing for a while, the medical ninja realized he had lost his composure. He coughed awkwardly, trying to cover up his excitement. With a somewhat unnatural expression, he asked, "So, did Tsunade-sama ask you to do anything specific, or are you just here to help out in the medical unit?"
Xin and Minato exchanged glances. Minato gave his trademark sunny smile and scratched his head. "Senpai, Tsunade-sama asked us to find Nawaki-senpai-Tsunade-sama's younger brother."
"Nawaki? Are you sure?" The medical ninja's previously awkward expression turned strange upon hearing this.
Something's off! Xin could sense that something was wrong. They might be walking into a trap.
"Senpai, is there an issue with finding Nawaki?" Even Minato was starting to feel uneasy.
"No, no," the medical ninja quickly shook his head and helpfully pointed outside the tent to where Nawaki was working. "You'll find him there. But be warned, the work might be tough. Good luck, you two. Hard work is better than losing your life on the battlefield."
As they left the tent, Minato whispered, "I've got a bad feeling about this."
"You don't need to have a bad feeling-it's definitely going to be rough," Xin replied, his tone resigned.
When the two finally found Nawaki, Minato understood exactly what Xin had meant earlier.
