Peacemaker

Failed Negotiatons

Don't underestimate me! I don't quit and I don't run! You can act tough all you want! You're not gonna scare me off! No way! I don't care if I DO get stuck as a Genin for the rest of my life! I'll still be Hokage someday! - Naruto

Butsuma Senju, the current head of the Senju clan, watched on calmly as the medical kunoichi worked on his son Itama

As calm as he was he didn't let his guard down at all and was ready to strike at any sign of danger

Though he was a bit annoyed that only Kawarama and Hashirama weren't on guard

He would have to discipline his sons more, death by betrayal or unawareness wasn't something he wanted to happen to his sons

But he couldn't say that he wasn't impressed, this was the first time he had seen chakra being used to help instead of hurt

And to think the girl had such a mastery of her chakra to be able to heal others

Butsuma deduced that the girl has perfect chakra control thanks to a quick scan with his sensory skills

"Sakura-sama, I'm done here" the slug informed the girl

The girl merely nodded without sparing her summon a glance, but she did smile "Thank you Katsuyu-sama"

"It was a pleasure" and with that the summon went away

"Are ya almost done?" Kawarama asked crossing his arms

"Patience Kawarama-kun, healing is a delicate process" the girl patiently said

"Huh? Isn't it just like using Ninjutsu?"

"Ninjutsu and Medical-Ninjutsu are derived from chakra, but they aren't the same. Medical Ninjutsu requires a throughout knowledge of the human body, poisons and medicines, illness and treatments, a sharp mind and cool head, and most importantly control" the girl explained leaving Kawarama gaping at the requirements

Even Butsuma was impressed that such a young girl could meet the requirements and seemingly excelled at them as well

"Did you learn it by yourself?" the more hesitant voice of Hashirama asked

It was a good question, but Butsuma was sure that the girl wouldn't answer

"No, I was taught by someone else"

Butsuma hid his surprise, the girl hadn't only answer the question but had spoken the truth as well

"May I ask who?" Hashirama persisted

"Hai, I learned from my village leader" the girl easily answered

"You belong to a village?" Hashirama asked

"Nii-san!" Kawarama warningly called

"What?" Hashirama asked in confusion as Kawarama sent a worried look to Sakura

The girl didn't seem the least fazed "Hai, though it was destroyed"

"Oh...I'm sorry" Hashirama apologized

"You shouldn't be, it wasn't your fault."

Butsuma coughed earning the trio's attention "How big was your village?"

"Hmm, my village had a population of roughly two thousand civilians and the same amount of shinobi"

Butsuma was immediately alarmed by the sheer number, how could he have not known about such a village?

"No way!" Kawarama breathed out

"Which clan would be able to destroy such a big village?" Hashirama wondered out loud
