Kitazawa left the Ninja Academy and went to the director's office at Konoha Hospital.
"Lady Tsunade and Shizune haven't arrived yet."
After a moment's thought, Yakushi Nonou said, "If you don't mind, I can teach you."
How could I possibly complain?
Kitazawa quickly shook his head and asked again, "Will it interfere with the dean's work?"
"You don't need to call me Dean. Just call me Senior, like Shizune does."
Yakushi Nonou said softly, "A long time ago, I had the honor of attending Tsunade-sama's class."
Kitazawa was slightly taken aback, but then he understood.
During the Second Shinobi World War, Tsunade proposed that a medical ninja be permanently added to each ninja team in order to reduce casualties.
However, due to limited resources and the extreme difficulty of training medical ninjas, it was not approved at the time.
Later, Konoha Village established a medical ninja experimental class and began training medical ninjas.
Before leaving Konoha, Tsunade had taken classes in the Medical Ninja Experimental Class.
"I can teach you medical ninjutsu while I'm working."
Yakushi Nonou smiled gently and said, "There won't be any delay."
"Ok."
Kitazawa sensed the confidence in her tone. "Thank you, Nono-senpai."
"Come with me."
As Yakushi Nonou walked, she said, "The probability of ninjas being poisoned is very high. Today, another special Jonin has arrived."
"What kind of poison did he get?"
Kitazawa asked curiously.
"A type of snake venom."
Yakushi Nonou paused for a moment and then said, "It's applied to Senbon (a type of Japanese sachet)."
Senbon is one of the ninja tools commonly used by ninjas. Simply put, it is an extended version of iron needles.
To increase their lethality, poison was often applied to the herbs.
The two chatted as they arrived at the operating room.
"It's you? Senior Shiranui."
Kitazawa pushed open the door and, seeing the poisoned special ninja, couldn't help but ask in surprise.
Of course, this Shiranui is not the same as that Shiranui.
His name is Genma Shiranui. He served as a bodyguard for the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and also learned the Flying Thunder Formation technique.
The Flying Thunder Formation Technique is a weakened version of the Flying Thunder God Technique, requiring three people to perform it simultaneously.
Because of too many restrictions, it cannot be used in battle at all; it can only be used to transport supplies or ninjas when there is no interference.
But that was the glory of the past.
After the death of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, Genma Shiranui became an ordinary special Jonin.
The reason Kitazawa calls him "senpai" is because Genma Shiranui is a year older than him.
"Aba Aba."
When Genma Shiranui speaks, he uses words whose meaning is unclear.
"You've been poisoned in the mouth?"
Kitazawa looked him over and asked.
Genma Shiranui nodded.
"You can talk after the treatment is over."
"I am Yakushi Nonou," Yakushi Nonou reminded him.
"There's no way to talk about it now."
Kitazawa spread his hands and asked, "What do I need to do?"
"Go and get the serum."
As she gave instructions, pharmacist Nonou put on medical gloves. "It's on that shelf over there, serum number seven."
"...?"
Genma Shiranui's large eyes were filled with doubt.
What's going on with Kitazawa?
Wasn't he a teacher at the Ninja Academy? How did he end up working as an assistant at Konoha Hospital?
But what happened next left him speechless.
"Kitazawa, do you know anesthesia?"
Yakushi Nonou walked up to Shiranui Genma and said, "If you know how, anesthetize his mouth and tongue."
"I can."
Kitazawa extended his hand and cast an anesthesia.
How do you know medical ninjutsu?
Although Genma Shiranui couldn't say it aloud, his face was full of question marks.
Kitazawa remained silent, simply maintaining the anesthesia.
"Prepare to stop the bleeding."
Pharmacist Nonou smiled and said, "The procedure is the same as yesterday, so you don't need to be nervous."
I'm so nervous!
Genma Shiranui's pupils contracted.
He finally understood; he became teaching material.
what happened?
Kitazawa quit teaching and started learning medical ninjutsu?
Half an hour later, the surgery was successfully completed.
"I've been holding it in so long! I can finally speak... Ouch!"
Genma Shiranui sat up, but halfway through his sentence, he covered his mouth in pain and gasped for breath.
"You just had surgery, you need to rest for two more days."
Kitazawa spoke up, offering a reminder.
Medical ninjutsu is not a panacea.
It's more like an emergency treatment; although it seems to have been cured, the body's deficit can't be recovered in a short time.
This is why Konoha Hospital still has many patients.
"I... hiss... I'm fine."
Unable to suppress his curiosity, Genma Shiranui asked, "How do you know medical ninjutsu?"
"I learned it."
Kitazawa said matter-of-factly.
"...?"
Genma Shiranui's lips twitched.
How come it sounds like medical ninjutsu is so simple to you?
Of all ninjutsu, sealing techniques, medical ninjutsu, and genjutsu are undoubtedly the most difficult to learn, especially the first two.
"Kitazawa is a genius in medical ninjutsu, and he only studied it for half a month."
Yakushi Nonou smiled and added.
"what?!"
Genma Shiranui was completely stunned.
How were you poisoned?
Kitazawa changed the subject, asking, "I remember your specialty is senbon, so why were you injured by senbon?"
"Well... that's a long story."
An awkward expression flashed across Genma Shiranui's face.
"Then make it short."
Kitazawa's curiosity was piqued.
"alright."
Genma Shiranui coughed lightly and said, "I accidentally hit my own senbon."
Kitazawa immediately understood.
Genma Shiranui really liked to have a senbon (a type of Japanese sash) in his mouth.
He could probably imagine the scene: "This skewer of mine is coated with poison, slurp."
"Come in."
"Pharmacist Nonou opened the operating room door and called out."
Two nurses immediately came in.
"Kitazawa".
Before being pushed away, Genma Shiranui asked curiously, "Are you learning medical ninjutsu from Dean Nono?"
"No."
Kitazawa shook his head and said, "I learned it from Lady Tsunade."
"???"
Genma Shiranui was completely dumbfounded.
Although he didn't know the details of the matter, he knew that Kitazawa was bound to rise to prominence.
Genma Shiranui couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
He once had that opportunity too.
Under normal circumstances, becoming a Hokage's bodyguard is equivalent to becoming a high-ranking member of Konoha Village.
For example, the two current Hokage advisors, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, were once the bodyguards of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.
However, this period of prosperity was short-lived. After the death of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, Genma Shiranui lost his favor.
After all, it was the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had taken office again.
The ninja he trusted was naturally his old comrade.
"I'm late, I'm sorry."
Jingyin rushed into the operating room and said.
"fine."
Kitazawa shook his head and said, "I understand."
It's obvious who's at fault.
Silently, she felt moved.
After all these years, finally someone understands him.
After Shizune arrived at Konoha Hospital, Pharmacist Nonou stopped teaching Kitazawa and went to attend to her own affairs.
