Malicious Intent

"This is medical equipment, and there are also medicines?"

Bandages, wound plasters, and other items were relatively easy to identify. Still, capsules and pills were more difficult to distinguish, as well as some sprays. However, there were instructions on the packages, so the elite ninjas in the camp picked them up and prepared to read them carefully. They had the right to make suggestions on the battlefield.

Tsunade explained to those who didn't get the medicine: "These are all emergency medicines that can be used on the battlefield, with various functions such as stopping bleeding, reducing inflammation, and reducing fever. With these medicines, we can greatly reduce the shortage of medical ninjas. Simple emergency suture techniques combined with these medicines can significantly reduce the casualty rate!"

A senior ninja from the Nara clan asked, "Are these medicines as effective as stated in the instructions?"

"It's not certain yet. These are all samples that we can try out. If the effects are confirmed, I suggest purchasing them in large quantities. Otherwise, with the current number of medical ninjas in the camp…" Tsunade didn't finish her sentence, but everyone knew what she would say. The medical ninjas were almost working non-stop, and many casualties still died due to a lack of timely treatment.

Among them were also ninjas from Konoha's clans. If these medicines were as effective as stated, then the delayed treatment for wounded Ninjas would greatly decrease in the future.

In a deep voice, Danzo asked, "What is this person's origin?"

"I don't know. Jake said he came from the United States on the other side of the sea, but who knows what's happening on the other side. Moreover, any other hidden village couldn't have developed this kind of medicine. Otherwise, Konoha wouldn't be completely clueless."

Konoha had few spies in the other villages, so they would have known if these medicines appeared there.

Tsunade shook her head and continued, "Jake isn't a ninja either as he had no chakra but he repeatedly stated that he could escape, and he only came with his package and only had these simples. So it's unlikely that he is a spy sent by other villages, rather looks like someone who's here for a trade."

"It's strange for him to appear near the battlefield without any reason. How could an ordinary merchant make such an unwise move?" Danzo was still suspicious despite Tsunade reassurance as he continued. " Should we ask the Yamanaka clan to read his..."

Before Danzo could finish, Orochimaru interrupted him with a smile, "Danzo, it's better not to do that. This person isn't the real provider and probably is just someone sent to negotiate. So, he probably doesn't know many detailed secrets that are worth risking blowing this deal off. Besides, he appeared in the Land of Rain and only encountered us because of the three children. If you act against him and don't get any secrets, then the possibility of benefiting the Rain Village is high."

After listening to Orochimaru's explanation, the other senior ninjas couldn't help but ponder. They found that what Orochimaru said was indeed reasonable.

The current focus should be on verifying the effectiveness of the medicines. If they were really effective as described, Konoha should purchase them in large quantities, which could save the lives of many ninjas.

Checking Jake's background and origin wasn't something important to worry about, although it was indeed something to pay attention to. However, compared with these medicines, it wasn't that important.

Suppose the Rain Village also got the same medicines and logistical support. In that case, this war might continue, and Konoha might turn from a winner to a loser.

Danzo also thought of the Rain ninjas who had just surrendered. If they acted against this person, it would make his backers look for the Rain ninjas, changing the war's course.

"Tsunade, you go first to verify the effectiveness of these medicines. If they are effective, then…"

"Then send the situation and list to Hokage-sama and the other two elders. After all, if we want to purchase these medicines in large quantities, we still need their permission. Moreover, medicines, food supplies, and other things are on the list." Tsunade preemptively said her answer was reasonable and appropriate, making Danzo a little angry. However, he had no reason to refute it because this was originally the responsibility of the logistics department.

"That's it, the meeting is over."

After Danzo finished speaking, Tsunade, Orochimaru, and other ninjas left the camp. Once outside, Tsunade felt refreshed and happy to see the frustration on Danzo's face.

"What are your plans next, Orochimaru?"

"I will most likely be sent to deal with the Sand Ninja," Orochimaru replied after thinking for a moment.

Thinking of her brother, Tsunade asked, "I might have to stay at the camp longer. Orochimaru, when you come back, can you be Nawaki's mentor? He has always wanted to be your student."

"If he can pass my assessment, even if he is not selected, at least in terms of judgment, he has already passed half the qualification."

Orochimaru's response meant that he agreed to the request.

Later, Tsunade returned to her tent and told Jake, "It's all good now. If the effects are correct, Konoha will make a large-scale purchase. You don't mind waiting for a while, do you?"

"Of course, inspection is also a necessary part of the transaction." Jake shrugged, thinking that things had progressed very smoothly to this point. He must establish his influence in the Naruto world, acquire industries, obtain a visible identity, and develop his forces. He also needed to search for some precious metal resources since buying large quantities of drugs requires money, and the money earned from the stock market was insufficient to support Jake's commodity trading between the two worlds.

He might need to establish covert companies in other countries. Once he returns, he plans to hire a professional private lawyer to assist him in resolving any issues arising from selling the gold. Without legal guidance, the gold sale could prove to be a complicated matter.

He could also commission Tsunade to develop effective medicine that couldn't be cured in his world. With research on medical ninjutsu and human anatomy, drugs could be developed.

In this way, Jake could make a fortune. With high-end medical ninjutsu in the Naruto world, he can establish a pharmaceutical giant in the Marvel world.

Decades later, the biological technology in the Naruto world can even make clones. If Jake intends to promote it, his idea can be realized ahead of time.
