I founded the "Bragging Cult" in Naruto.

Chapter 202 When boys and girls get close, there's never a shortage of annoying chatter.

"Sakamoto-san, you explained it so well. You cleared up all my previous doubts in one go."

At Konoha Hospital, pharmacist Nonou, carrying a notebook, a bottle of water, and a bottle of beverage, walked up to Tatsuma, who was clutching his ribs, and said to him with a smile.

"Ahem~ Thank you."

Tatsuma coughed. If Tsunade hadn't spared his life, he probably would have been beaten to death. It's true that you shouldn't expose someone's weaknesses, especially when you're weaker than them.

"Sakamoto-san, you've been coughing all day, are you injured?"

Nonou asked with concern, handing over the bottle of drink and saying, "Here, have some water."

Tatsuma nodded, and without standing on ceremony, took a couple of sips of water to catch his breath before saying, "Are you planning to become a medical ninja?"

"Um."

Nono nodded vigorously, then said, "That's part of the reason."

Upon hearing this, Tatsuma looked puzzled. Judging from Nono's tone, the main reason she came to attend the trial class was not to delve deeper into the medical field.

Nono didn't hide anything and said, "Although the war didn't break out in the Land of Fire, there were still many war orphans in the surrounding areas because of the war."

By attending Tsunade-sama's training course, I won't need to leave the village with a team for missions, giving me more time to help out at the orphanage.

"I haven't been back to the orphanage for many years."

The so-called welfare home is actually the Konoha Orphanage. However, the word "orphanage" is not a good name, so even though everyone knows it is an orphanage, they try to avoid mentioning it and instead use "welfare home" as a substitute.

Chenma's original body was also taken in by an orphanage, and his early education was also carried out in the orphanage. However, he was a little smarter and was able to live independently at a young age, so he switched to being supported by the village, freeing up a place for the orphanage to take in other orphans.

However, those memories are from too early, and Tatsuma finds it difficult to recall them clearly. Perhaps he knew Yakushi Nonou, or even Minato Namikaze, much earlier, but simply forgot them.

Chenma suddenly frowned and asked, "The orphanage must be having a tough time lately. The village's subsidies haven't been distributed yet, and there are quite a few more orphans here."

Nono nodded, her smile fading, and said, "Yes, but there are still kind people who are spontaneously providing financial assistance, so it can last for a while."

Upon hearing this, Tatsuma nodded. His wartime commissions hadn't been paid yet, but thanks to his trip to Daimyo Prefecture, he had some savings. He looked up and said:

"I probably won't have much time to visit the dean and my younger siblings. If possible, could you come with me to the bank after the practical class? I'd like to contribute some money as well."

"Sakamoto-san, I'm not."

Nonou became a little flustered, afraid that Tatsuma would misunderstand her motives for coming to talk, but Tatsuma waved his hand and said, "That's fine. After all, I can't take care of them like you do, so I can only use a more conventional method."

Upon hearing this, Nonou looked at Tatsuma and after a while said, "Thank you."

Tatsuma nodded, avoiding Nono's bright gaze, coughed twice, and said, "Ahem~ Let's prepare for the practical lesson. Compared to theory, your practical results will be more convincing to the village to implement the teacher's proposal."

"I understand, I will try my best."

Nono nodded vigorously and said very seriously. Then she walked back to her seat and studied what Tatsuma had taught in the theory class, taking sips of water from her own water bottle from time to time.

A few minutes past the scheduled time, Tsunade, who had skipped class from the very beginning of the theory lesson, finally rushed back. Seeing Tatsuma's resentful look, Tsunade said:

"I managed to perform two surgeries in my spare time. What, you have a problem with that?"

Tatsuma didn't answer, but pointed to his collar. Tsunade pulled up her collar and saw that she had accidentally spilled some sauce on it while eating.

Tsunade glared at Tatsuma, somewhat embarrassed and angry, and then raised her fist.

She did take time off to have the surgery, but it didn't take too long.

Chenma tactfully changed the subject, saying, "We've been waiting for you to guide the practical lesson. The fish are almost out of oxygen. Let's get started, teacher."

Tsunade also took the opportunity to agree, nodded, and walked to the middle of the ward that had been temporarily converted into a classroom. Fortunately, the war was nearing its end, with only the finishing work remaining in various places; otherwise, Konoha Hospital really wouldn't have been able to free up any wards.

He scooped up a fish from a bucket and placed it on the cutting board. On the miniature hospital bed, he said, "On the battlefield, the ninjas who need our treatment can be divided into three levels of difficulty."

The first type is minor cuts or stab wounds that affect combat ability, but can be easily treated to restore their fighting strength. This type of injury is the most common, accounting for about 60% of the wounded.

The second type is minor injuries such as fractures and tendon ruptures, which have a significant impact on combat. They are more difficult to treat and take longer to heal. Errors during treatment can affect subsequent combat effectiveness. Generally, these types of injuries are not suitable for returning to combat. On the battlefield, such wounded soldiers account for about 30%.

The third type is serious injury, accounting for only 10%. If there are no powerful medical ninjas present, these wounded must be sent back to the village as soon as possible to receive professional treatment.

Of course, these percentages exclude those who die on the spot or from severe injuries. The role of battlefield medical ninjas, and even accompanying medical ninjas, is...

The purpose is to treat the wounded in the first situation, restore the combat power of the wounded in the second situation, and save the lives of the wounded in the third situation.

Our practical classes are taught in this order of increasing difficulty. Today, I'm going to teach you a technique that's widely used for treating minor injuries.

As she spoke, Tsunade gently clenched her right hand, and a chakra scalpel appeared in her hand. She gently sliced ​​across the side of the fish's belly, and instantly, a wound appeared, blood gushed out, and the fish began to thrash about.

Tsunade gently gripped the fish's gills, restricting its movement, and continued explaining: "The principle of the healing technique is to use chakra to seal the wound, making the arrangement and position of the skin, fat, and muscles as close as possible to their pre-injury condition."

Then, chakra is used to stimulate the cells around the wound to accelerate healing. This process requires ensuring the stability of the wound, which can be achieved using anesthetics, shadow techniques, or by forcibly controlling the wounded.

As she spoke, Tsunade's chakra scalpel disappeared from her right hand, and her fingers traced across the fish's wound. The slightly everted skin was smoothed out, and with the injection of the healing jutsu's unique chakra, the wound quickly closed up.

In just half a minute, only a mark remained on the fish scales, and the injury had been completely healed. Tsunade put the fish back into the bucket. The fish remained still for a few seconds, and just as it was about to sink to the bottom, it finally resumed its normal movements.

This scene drew gasps from many of the genin who had come to learn; they hadn't expected such a rapid recovery. Tsunade rinsed her hands at the nearby sink, returned to her seat, and said:

"The fish we've prepared for you will die in about thirty minutes out of the water. If you take into account any injuries, that time will be reduced to ten to fifteen minutes. This is the time limit for you to save a life."

At this stage, I allow you to use scalpels because the cuts made by scalpels are much smoother than those made by shuriken or kunai, making it easier for you to train.

My requirement is that you master this technique within two weeks, and within a month, reduce the surgery time to within five minutes.

As she spoke, Tsunade glanced back at Tatsuma. She recalled the time it took Tatsuma to learn this technique. Well, Tatsuma directly learned the Palm Healing Technique before learning the Healing Technique. It seemed he succeeded with the first fish, so there was no way to refer to that.

Tatsuma had already explained the principles, difficulties, and key points of the healing technique in previous theory classes, so Tsunade didn't need to teach it; they only needed to start experimenting on their own.

However, as the fish died one by one, the once confident genin turned pale and even looked resentfully at Tatsuma, who was resting on the side.

This technique is extremely simple for Tsunade, and Tatsuma even said that it only requires hands. So why can't they learn it? Could it be that what they have under their shoulders isn't their hands?

One girl even burst into tears after "killing" five fish in a row, showing how deeply she was immersed in the story.

Although most people failed, two people made initial progress, at least managing to use chakra to seal the wounds together. Tsunade looked at the fish in Nonou's hand with satisfaction, nodded, and said:

"Yakushi Nonou, right? You'd be perfect as a medical ninja."

Nonou nodded excitedly and said, "Thank you, Lady Tsunade."

Tsunade looked at another female ninja of similar age. The fish in her hand had also had its wound healed. Although it wasn't as pretty as Nonou's, it was still healed and no longer bleeding. Tsunade asked:

"Not bad, but next time don't rush to seal it. Make sure the corresponding positions on both sides of the wound are in place before performing the procedure. By the way, what's your name?"

"Lady Tsunade, my name is Serpent Companion."

Sheci was a little nervous, looking at the wound on the fish in her hand. She wanted to re-glu it, but she was afraid that the gluing effect would not be as good as this time, so she was quite conflicted.

Upon hearing this, Tatsuma looked up and glanced at the name Hebiji. He vaguely remembered it; it seemed to be one of Kushina's midwives in the original work, a student of Sarutobi Biwako, and also an ANBU member.

However, he didn't pay much attention to it and turned his gaze back to continue thinking about the notes that he hadn't yet figured out.

The lessons didn't end until dark. Tsunade, looking exhausted, turned to Tatsuma and asked, "Shall we go back together?"

Seeing that Tsunade wasn't even in the mood to play a few rounds, Tatsuma was a little surprised, but he quickly recovered, shook his head, and said, "I have something to do, I'll be back later."

Tsunade frowned at first, then noticed Nonou walking towards Tatsuma. She smiled like an aunt and chuckled twice before leaving without giving Tatsuma a chance to explain.

Tatsuma shook his head helplessly, stood up, feeling the pain in his ribs and the slight throbbing in his heart from exhaustion. After estimating how much rest he needed, he looked at Nonou and said:

"Let's hurry, you should also get back soon, right?"

"Oh? Actually, I'm not in a hurry."

Nono lowered her head and whispered, but Tatsuma ignored her and said irrelevantly, "Then let's hurry up."
