"Uh..." Watching a certain princess of Leaf gorge on meat without any regard for image, Xin couldn't help but wonder.
She didn't look like she had come back from a battlefield but rather as if she had fled a famine.
Even considering the world's poor logistics and difficult material transportation, Tsunade's hunger seemed excessive.
How long had it been since she had last touched meat to be this desperate?
Her eyes gleamed with a hunger that reminded him of the ravenous huskies of his previous life.
Holding his utensils, Xin finally asked, "Elder, are supplies in Leaf really that scarce?"
Swallowing the meat in her mouth, Tsunade perked up, "You'll understand once you're on the battlefield. That godforsaken place in the Land of Rain, where even dry food is a luxury, let alone meat. Unless you're at a major Leaf camp."
As a medical ninja, she wasn't supposed to rush to the front lines but rather stay in the camps to treat the injured.
Yet, there she was, charging into battle more fiercely than anyone, a unique figure across all ninja villages.
Other medical ninjas wouldn't dare.
Grabbing some vegetables, Xin continued, "How's the situation on the battlefield?"
"...."
Tsunade paused, then sighed, "Not great. The Rain's capabilities far exceed our expectations under Hanzo's leadership. Leaf hasn't gained much advantage."
"Of course, certain people's command decisions are partly to blame," she added, venting her frustration.
"Danzo?"
Xin remembered that Danzo was in command at the Rain battlefield.
Honestly, he didn't think Danzo was the right choice for the position. Among those capable of command, the Shikaku leader and Orochimaru would have been more suitable; the former more balanced, the latter more ruthless.
Nodding, Tsunade, troubled, started to raise her hand to her head, then, seeing the grease, decided against it.
"The Rain battlefield isn't over yet, and now the Sand has launched a surprise attack on Leaf, sparking a new war that's got the Hidden Rock and Hidden Cloud Village stirring."
"The last few weeks have seen an increasing number of foreign ninjas crossing into Rain, including those from the Sand."
