The Devil of Konoha: Starting as a Medical Ninja

After learning the healing technique, Hiroji kept quiet. His visit to Konoha Hospital was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but rather had a specific purpose.

The ninja world is a distorted world. Without the bloodline of the Otsutsuki clan, the upper limit is only Kage level.

As for surpassing the Kage level, that's basically impossible. Of course, Hongzhi wouldn't consider a life-burning technique.

Having finally arrived in the ninja world and been given a second chance at life, it seems like a huge loss to constantly fight with others.

The other path of immortal arts is also extremely difficult. Hongzhi, who is familiar with the plot, clearly understands that those who can use immortal arts are basically from the same lineage.

This is a level that Hongzhi cannot yet access; there are still two years until all twelve members of the "Little Strong Ones" graduate.

Jiraiya is probably still lost in some brothel, Tsunade is still indulging in drinking and gambling, and as for Orochimaru, Hongzhi definitely won't consider him until he reaches a certain level of strength.

Physical techniques that burn through life force are not worth considering, and in terms of immortal techniques, it is impossible to contend with the Six Paths level by one's own strength alone.

Even with the system in place, learning all the ninjutsu is useless; once the Infinite Tsukuyomi is activated, it's all nonsense without the Rinnegan.

Even Naruto Uzumaki, the protagonist who had already obtained the power of the Six Paths, was controlled. If Sasuke Uchiha's Rinnegan hadn't surpassed the Infinite Tsukuyomi, there wouldn't have been any subsequent plot developments.

So Hongzhi came to Konoha Hospital, and only after he used Lightning Release to kill those three trashy guys who just kept babbling all day long.

Although the possibility is very low, the existence of the system might actually allow us to find a way through medical ninjutsu.

Even if we don't have enough materials to find the secrets of bloodline limits, it would be great to find a way to reduce the chakra consumption of transplanting Sharingan and Rinnegan.

If all else fails, the safety of transplanting Hashirama cells in the future might be higher due to the extremely high level of medical ninjutsu.

Overall, learning medical ninjutsu is definitely a huge win, and it's also the only way for Hongzhi to improve his strength.

Because he had never revealed his strength, Hongzhi was seen by others as nothing more than a perpetual genin, so it was naturally impossible for him to obtain the ninjutsu scroll.

The situation is different at Konoha Hospital. If medical ninjutsu is used to its fullest potential, it can be very powerful in battle.

Putting aside everything else, at the very least, they should be able to reach the level of elite Jonin, and Kabuto Yakushi before Orochimaru died is the best proof of that.

After learning the healing technique, Hongzhi placed the scroll in front of him and began to stare blankly.

To outsiders, this appears to be the content of a healing technique, but Hiroji was actually transferring chakra to various parts of his body repeatedly before using the healing technique.

For Hongzhi, whose chakra manipulation had already exceeded its limits, such superb chakra application skills were naturally a piece of cake.

With this effect, the proficiency in healing spells naturally increases rapidly.

[Healing Spell; 70%]

By the end of the morning, the following information appeared on the panel in front of Hongzhi: This is how low-level ninjutsu works; the proficiency accumulates very quickly before breaking through the limits.

That's all for now. Remember to come back this afternoon.

The medical ninja who gave Hongzhi the healing scroll spoke, and then the three medical ninjas left the classroom.

Hongzhi watched this scene calmly, then slowly left.

The other trainees around him weren't from the same batch as him, so naturally they wouldn't recognize each other.

Of course, there's no need to get to know them.

Chapter 3 shouldn't be considered the worst, right?

In a secluded area of ​​Konoha, Hiroji slowly walked towards a dilapidated house, which was where he lived.

The original owner's parents were said to be merchants. Logically speaking, commoners who could trade in Konoha should not have lived such a miserable life.

Inside the courtyard, the furniture looks to be over ten years old; if you didn't know better, you'd think it was the home of a nostalgic old man.

Although the specifics are unknown, according to the original owner's memories, after that disaster, nothing was left but two packets of ashes and a dilapidated shack that was assigned to her.

Although the original owner didn't have many memories, it seemed that there was no other choice besides the so-called Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage in that disaster.

After entering the room and having a quick lunch, Hongzhi left the kitchen and went into the bedroom.

Small but complete.

That's about it for the house. It should be big enough to accommodate one person, if you ignore the almost broken beams.

Hongzhi had no idea what the house looked like; after all, with his current abilities, it was impossible for him to be directly transported to the next world by the beam.

After entering the bedroom, Hongzhi closed his eyes and continued practicing his healing technique. Thanks to the Liver Emperor System, he gained a certain level of proficiency every time he successfully released a ninjutsu.

This clear view of the progress undoubtedly gave Hongzhi hope to continue the tedious training.

As it turns out, hope does not turn into despair. After several consecutive releases of the healing technique, this healing technique, which is itself the most basic medical ninjutsu, successfully broke through its limits.

[Healing Spell; Limit Break +1 (1%, Healing +1)]

Healing techniques are the most basic medical ninjutsu, with a learning difficulty of around C-rank. The main difficulty lies in the precise control of chakra.

This was rather simple for Hongzhi, as for the special attribute he gained after breaking the limits of the healing technique—healing.

It's easy to explain; it's simply that when Hongzhi uses healing techniques, his wounds heal faster than those of other medical ninjas.

As for exactly how fast it would be, Hongzhi didn't know the specifics without having experimented with it.

After the healing spell breaks through its limit, each use will only grant 1% progress, making it unrealistic to advance to the next stage in a short period of time.

However, I'll be spending a long time at Konoha Hospital, so I don't need to worry too much about my proficiency level.

After completing his healing technique training, Hongzhi proceeded to other training methods, such as the nature transformation of lightning-attribute chakra, which were the true combat skills.

Of course, this doesn't mean that healing spells are useless in combat; it's just a matter of cost-effectiveness.

The strongest combat technique of a medical ninja is the A-rank ninjutsu – Chakra Scalpel.

However, at this moment, it was impossible for Hongzhi to learn this medical ninjutsu, and there was no need to reveal the healing technique in the short term.

Learning healing magic in a single day is a bit too flashy. Hongzhi plans to wait until a few of the group have successfully mastered the healing magic before revealing his discovery.

In the afternoon, when Hongzhi entered the Konoha Hospital training room again, he didn't see anyone, which surprised him somewhat.

It wasn't until half an hour later that people started to come in one after another, and those who came here stood in twos and threes.

He doesn't look much different from when he was at the Ninja Academy.

In the afternoon, Hongzhi stayed in his seat, opened the scroll of healing techniques, and began to silently practice healing techniques and the nature transformation of lightning-attribute chakra.

Essentially, it involves guiding lightning-attribute chakra through various parts of the body to achieve a body-tempering effect, which is generally considered extremely dangerous.

However, after the lightning attribute nature changes beyond its limit once, the special effect obtained is body tempering, which is the reason why such a dangerous operation can be performed.

Of course, doing this will definitely cause some damage to the body. After all, tempering the body itself involves injuring the body and then recovering, thereby increasing the body's resilience.

Previously, Hongzhi could only perform this kind of tempering once a day, but with the healing technique, there will be no such problem, and he can temper at least five times a day.

In one afternoon, Hongzhi completed two tempering sessions. If such meticulous operations hadn't been so energy-consuming, Hongzhi could have done it several more times.

"Teacher, I did it!"

Just before the afternoon break, a surprised voice rang out, and everyone's attention turned to the source of the sound.

It was a woman, and at that moment, her hands were emitting a green light, a sign that she was using a healing spell.

"To have learned healing magic in just ten days is truly amazing!"

"Someone succeeded so quickly?"

"As expected..."

……

As the woman succeeded, Hongzhi overheard whispers around him, which made him realize the duration of this group's training.

Hongzhi was certain that the girl who wielded healing magic was definitely not a genius; the headband she wore proved that she was a genin.

Given the situation in Konoha, people who come here to learn medical ninjutsu are generally not the main force of the team.

It's at most a support role.

The three medical ninjas responsible for answering questions here have already surrounded him, after all, finally one of them can be called a medical ninja.

'If it takes ten days to become a genius, then twenty days shouldn't make me a bottom-tier student, right?'

As Hongzhi observed the actions around him, he thought to himself that if he didn't achieve his goal, he shouldn't be too high-profile in Konoha. He should just be an ordinary medical ninja.

Soon the genin was taken away, and the entire training room fell silent again. However, Hiroji could see that many people's faces began to tense up.

Since some people have already succeeded, those who joined at the same time naturally wouldn't consider themselves inferior to others.

Of course, none of this had anything to do with Hongzhi. This was his first day here, so there was no need for him to panic.

The day was almost over, and as night fell, Hongzhi sat on his bed, undergoing body tempering.

Blue lightning spread across Hongzhi's entire body, and there was definitely no visible problem on the outside, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to undergo body tempering in the training room.

After one cycle ended, green healing magic emerged from all parts of Hongzhi's body, and his body, which had been damaged by the tempering, began to repair itself rapidly.

Using healing techniques on yourself is quite simple. You just need to direct your chakra to the area that needs healing and then convert it into healing chakra.

It doesn't require using your hands, although using your hands would definitely be faster...

However, at this moment, Hongzhi's gaze was quietly fixed on the panel, not on the changes in the healing spell, but on the lightning attribute change having once again exceeded its limit...

Chapter 4: Because all his teammates sacrificed themselves.

[Lightning attribute change; Limit Break +2 (1%, Body Tempering +2, Paralysis +1)]

The information on the panel clearly explained this point, and at that moment, Hongzhi felt that he had gained a deeper understanding of the changes in the nature of lightning.

The body-tempering properties have been improved, and not only that, but a new property has also been added: paralysis.

This is much more effective than healing spells.

After all, lightning attribute transformation is his most common method of fighting enemies, and also the way he gradually becomes stronger.

"Not bad, but unfortunately, what we want to achieve is still far from being realized!"

As the prompts before him vanished without a trace, Hongzhi closed his eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep.

When Hongzhi entered the training room the next day, he clearly felt that there were fewer people there. Although he didn't know exactly what had happened, he figured that some people had chosen to leave.

After all, someone succeeded yesterday. Seeing others succeed, some people will choose to follow suit, while others may give up because of this.

Although the ninja world is vast, the majority of people are not ninjas, but ordinary civilians.

This matter had no impact on Hongzhi; the best course of action was to quietly cultivate his body tempering and healing techniques in a corner.
