The water problem

The water problem

Karin looked bothered by this but couldn't deny it. I quickly get ready and left my house after that for my sensei's office. It came as little surprise that she was waiting for me though what did come as a surprise was who else was in the office, Terumi Momo.

"Theres been a rather annoying snag in our support of the bloodline faction as the normal middleman was killed by the Mizukage's faction and the final battle for the village is fast approaching. You were chosen by name to lend aid to the faction as the new middleman and participate in the slaying of the Mizukage Yagura in a supportive role. All undercover of course." My sensei said seriously without wasting any time.

"What exactly are the parameters for this mission?" I asked seriously.

It was from the sound of it a very important mission and one I was uniquely suited for as both one of the most skilled medical shinobi alive as well as in terms of power and jutsus. I could easily blend into the faceless crowds or straight up turn invisible if I wanted.-

"The first part of your mission is to pose as an escort to a merchant headed to the land of water with Terumi Momo here acting as the merchant. Once you arrive at the bloodline resistance headquarters you aren't to engage in combat unless absolutely necessary and are to serve as both a messager and medic while you are there while disguised. The skirmishes until now have not required our aid but this final battle is likely to be particularly bloody and they will need as skilled a medic as possible to prevent needless casualties." My sensei said seriously.

"Where is Konoha's sincerity!? You sent a mere clone of all things!" he said angrily.

I unleashed my clones chakra and let it press everyone in the area to the ground as the air howled and the ground cracked. "This "mere" clone could slaughter everyone here like they were helpless babies. I can fulfil my duties just fine like this." I said coldly before retracting my chakra.

Any resistance to my clone being there died at that moment and in fact they tried to convince me to send the clone into the battles but I refused as my mission didn't involve combat. Besides I had made it clear that it wouldn't be good for them if I did battle as it would get out that they sought out Konoha's help to fight their battles which was NOT a good thing for a hidden village.-

They quickly came to sing my praises anyways when I went to work treating their wounded and even managed to increase their expected troop size by mending crippling injuries that their own medical ninjas couldn't fix. -

"How did you do that? What about this?"

Terumi Momo had also become an annoyingly active part of my clones day as she hung around watching me work on patients. Her genuine curiosity about the medical techniques I used and what they did made it hard for me to get rid of her. Obviously I couldn't just tell her to get lost as this was both not Konoha and she wasn't causing any issues besides trying to improve her own medical knowledge since she was also a medical ninja if only at the lowest level since she had average talent in the field. It also didn't help that the techniques the iryonin here were using was outdated as all hell.
