Not yet no. Not with just a dot in Medicine or an excellency.

Could you give an idea of how many successes we would need to fix Lee. I am not sure what is considered difficult for Solar.
Edit:I just looked it up.
Wholeness-Restoring Meditation
Cost: —
Mins: Medicine 3, Essence 3
Type: Permanent
Keywords: Touch
Duration: Permanent
Prerequisite Charms: Flawless Diagnosis Technique
That is quite an investment. Although Flawless Diagnosis should be helpful. Also medical charms can get rid of stuff like the crused seal.

So if ANBU is ready and waiting to take out the barrier guys before they can set up, Roachy might not be able to isolate the Hokage...not that anyone else in Konoha can do any better against him individually, but enough jonin ganging up on him should still sort of work (not enough to kill him, but enough to drive him off before he can finish Sarutobi off).
Hokage surviving = no Tsunade recall = Sakura remains a catankerous, useless little shit forever...?
I suppose if the Hokage gets clipped with Kusanagi or some other poisoned weapon that doesn't immediately kill him, that could lead to a Tsunade recall.
Knowing about the attack in advance + characters aren't sodding morons = Tenzo is on hand to help with the Ichibi, meaning "Konoha has a Wood Release user" is now public knowledge. Be interesting to see how the other villages react to that- it's not quite the panic that would happen if they suddenly revealed a Hiraishin user, but still.
She's kinda on the road to become friends with a Solar, so not likely.
Ok, so, our options.
Excellency - gives us a free day of training. We could use it for social, like tracking down Sasuke or maybe investigating Gaara further, but I'm not sure it's worth it. Stealth excellency might be useful, definitely. Banking... Well, it's not like we could buy essence 4, right?
@Crilltic can we buy "Backing: Konohan ANBU"? This might be quite helpful in our training. Even at minimal levels they might be able to provide some info about Gaara.

[X] +1 Occult (-4 XP)
While Stealth and Awareness are important for ninja, there's the overarching plot to deal with, too; and our best option for that is Ghost-Eating Technique, which requires Occult 4. We have 2 dots in both Occult and Stealth, so it should cost the same amount of XP to raise Occult that it would for Stealth.

What does Occult do in the Naruto verse?
Naruto feels a weird tingle
Tenten: "I do not have a problem with explosives. I can stop anytime!"
Also, just to make sure people see. Since I edited in this option in after the fact, but you can chose to bank your XP for a particularly dramatically opportune time to buy something all at once for no training time.
Because I feel like that is fitting for the setting.
That actually sounds best. We can train anything normally, then use this for critical skill unlocks

Actually when Tsunade healed Lee, didn't she have something like a 50-50 chance of fixing or killing Lee?
If Tsunade has the roll dice to fix Lee here, maaaaaaaybe we should train Medicine and learn how to fix Lee ourselves. I'd hate for him to die on the operating table, even if we do get Tsunade back here.
I doubt we'll do this before the exam, though having Lee in action for an hypothetical Invasion could be nice. He's kinda vulnerable right now, if someone wants to take advantage or use him against us.

I'd actually peg her as potentially getting more screentime of she didn't wind up modeling herself as a super healer with her superb chakra control.

I'm not that into the mechanics of Exalted so i have to ask, what would be the difference between getting an excellency in stealth and improving the stealth ability by one?

Naruto kind of had a thing for having each generation turn into expies of the previous generation. Which was so fucking boring. I am 100% in favour of Sakura getting stronger without turning into Tsunade 2.0.

As a note, Leaf now knows way more, this hella cripples the invasion plan. Sure they were suspicious about Sound before, but now they know that:
a) Sand and Sound are working together
b) Gaara is a Jinchuuriki (Tenten might not have understood what she saw, but ANBU and the Hokage would sure as shit recognise it from her description)
c) Kabuto is a traitor
That makes a heck of a lot of difference. Since there's no way this would be some rogue faction of Sand it means they're going to be expecting danger from the Kazekage (They don't know it's Oro-Chan, but still, it makes a difference), they know the invasion plans probably center around using Gaara as a weapon, so they'll be ready for that. And best of all they've opted not to pounce now, acting normal and making preparations, so the invasion will suffer a major disadvantage. Plus with knowing Kabuto is a traitor, that gives them a line of investigation. Double agents aren't simple things, they both need a way of being inserted and of passing along information. The fact they know he's a traitor means ANBU has rather a lot of things to look into.

Improving stealth ability by one gives us one more die to roll on an action while an excellency is a magical power called a charm which allows us to spend essence to increase the amount of dice we roll up to a maximum of Attribute+Ability. Thematically, spending essence into an excellency means we are channeling our divine nature into a flash of brilliance that bends reality to our will. In this case we could spend seven points of essence to increase our Dexterity+Stealth dice pool by seven points. Essence is a limited resource. We currently have a Personal Essence Pool of 19 and a Peripheral Essence Pool of 42. If we spend too much Peripheral Essence then our anima will flare and we will be shining like the sun at dawn making stealth impossible.

The Excellency for Stealth is pretty limited, IIRC you're better off getting to Stealth 3 and buying the REAL stealth charms.
Its one of the rare cases the 3rd excellency(reroll, declared after seeing roll) is better, since you just want to not fuck up cheaply rather than roll huge expensive pools

That depends on how good the people you are hiding from are at finding you. If they are comparable to your unaltered stealth dicepool then you may need the first or second excellency to pull it off.
In exalted you only need to roll stealth when you start being sneaky or do something that should have a high chance of outing you. Like attacking.

Why you might ask? Because Tiger Warriors. For when you want your army of ninja to be combat hydras, or to turn a group of genin into chunin over a few months. And also reequip charms, and to help us strategize.
