Naruto: Chronicles of A Fire Ninja

After that, they went to eat breakfast.

 

"How is your training going, Yomi?" Kaida asked.

 

"Fine, I think I will be able to complete my first phase of training within a week. You will be surprised when you see the result of my training. Shishishishi," Yomi replied with her signature laugh.

 

"You will complete the first phase within two weeks? Are you sure?" Shisui asked.

 

"Yes, brother. I am using Shadow clones to increase my speed. With the help of five Shadow clones, my speed is really fast," Yomi said.

 

Though she could make around 14 Shadow clones, she was only using five because she had to maintain them for quite a large amount of time. Extra chakra was required to make a Shadow clone that could sustain itself for some time while maintaining enough chakra to not feel tired.

 

"Good," Shisui said.

 

"So what is this first phase you're talking about?" Kaida asked, intrigued by Shisui's comment.

 

"You see, before you learn—"

 

"No, brother, don't tell him!" Yomi interrupted just as Shisui was about to answer Kaida.

 

"First, I will show him the result of my training," Yomi said shyly.

 

"Hahaha, okay," Shisui said, laughing along with Hae and Kaida.

 

Kaida decided not to search for answers and let her give him the surprise she wanted.

 

After eating, Yomi went out for training while Kaida remained at the house until 7:00 a.m. Then he also went toward the hospital.

 

After consuming various resources he got using contribution points for physical enhancement, he ran to the hospital while using a weight seal to apply 100 kg to his body.

 

At 8:00 a.m., he reached the hospital, following the same schedule of shadowing the chief medical ninja and using Shadow clones to learn poison removal jutsu and medical techniques. By now, he had already completed the books Mitsuru had asked him to read and was now reading books related to medical nursing, as he would be allowed to start some hands-on work in a week.

 

After leaving the hospital, he continued his genjutsu training, returning home by 6:00 p.m. while sending 50 Shadow clones to complete some missions. This was his schedule for three days.

 

...

 

After three days, Kaida decided to eat the soldier pill once again.

 

"So, you’ve learned False Surroundings Jutsu, huh?" Shisui asked, looking toward Kaida.

 

"Yes, brother. Now I can see the weaknesses of my target, and the success rate of the jutsu is also 100 percent," Kaida said.

 

"Good. After you come back from the hospital, I will teach you something new," Shisui said.

 

They were discussing this while sitting at the dining table, eating breakfast.

 

"So you’re going to use the soldier pill again?" Yomi asked.

 

"Yes," Kaida said.

 

"Lucky you. My Sensei isn't even allowing me to take a single day off, so I can’t use those pills," Yomi said, sighing.

 

"Don't worry, Yomi, you're doing fine," Shisui said.

 

"Thanks, brother," Yomi said.

 

After eating, Yomi went for her training while Kaida went to the hospital. He was particularly excited today, as it had been a week since he started following the chief, and today he would be allowed to practice by himself. Though most of what he could do was apply bandages, set fractures, and give some simple medicine, it was a start.

 

When he reached the hospital, he eagerly waited for the chief.

 

When the chief arrived, he looked toward Kaida and said, "Follow me," and took Kaida to a room where several dummies were present.

 

"Before I allow you to treat an actual patient, I need to check whether you're ready or not. Your task is to treat those three," the chief said, pointing to three dummies.

 

Kaida nodded and approached the dummies. The first one had a cut on its forearm. Kaida skillfully cleaned the wound and applied a proper bandage, then wrote the name of some medicine the patient should take for a swift recovery.

 

Next, he moved to the second dummy, which showed symptoms of a peculiar bacterial disease. Kaida prescribed some medicine and then went to the last dummy.

 

It had one of its legs bent at an unusual angle—a clear case of a fracture. Following the procedure, Kaida first gave the dummy a painkiller, then turned to the chief nurse and asked, "Can I use Shadow clones, or do I have to do it alone?"

 

"This is your test. Use whatever means you have to do it successfully," the chief said, maintaining his strict demeanor.

 

Kaida quickly made three Shadow clones and swiftly aligned the bone. He applied the plaster, prescribed one week of rest while eating a calcium-rich diet, and recommended some medicine with a constant check-up over a month to ensure proper healing.

 

After treating all three dummies, Kaida stood aside as the chief examined them. After checking all three, he turned to Kaida and asked, "How did you know the medicines you listed for the second dummy?"

 

"I read some books about nursing and common diseases. The symptoms in the report matched a disease I had studied, so I prescribed the medicine I knew," Kaida explained politely.

 

"Good. You’re ready to treat normal patients now. After one month, you can take your license exam," the chief said with a smile.

 

Kaida nodded but asked, "Do I have to wait for a whole month?"

 

"Kids these days. Normally, it would take a year to become eligible for the license, and you're getting it within two months, and you're complaining! Just so you know, if you weren't Mitsuru-sama's disciple, you would have had to be under my supervision for at least three months before getting the chance to apply for a license," the chief replied.

 

Kaida just laughed nervously.

 

After getting permission, Kaida's work at the hospital became more lively. He treated patients here and there, not charging them anything. While nurses charged a small fee for their services, Kaida decided not to take any payment. For a full day's work, it was like doing a D-rank mission. This simple gesture created a positive image of Kaida in the eyes of the villagers.

 

At 4 p.m., Kaida went to the training area after purchasing a soldier pill for 100,000 Ryo. Although this amount was too high for even a chunin, it was small change for Kaida, as he had earned a lot by completing D-rank missions. After completing 1,000 D-rank missions, Kaida had earned around 600,000 Ryo.

 

So spending on a soldier pill wasn’t much for him. After buying it, he headed straight to the training area, where Shisui was waiting.

 

"You seem to be in a good mood," Shisui asked.
