The Devil of Konoha: Starting as a Medical Ninja

As for whether there will be more gains, it depends on whether the remaining shadow clone can complete the mission. However, even if it cannot complete the mission, the gains this time will still be very substantial.

Putting everything else aside, the stem cell fusion experiment between Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Shisui can begin.

If it works, then we'll be one step closer to the Mangekyou Sharingan.

The shadow clone carried Uchiha Sasuke and continued to flee. Soon, four Anbu members who had been waiting there for a long time appeared on the path he was sure to take.

"Damn it."

The shadow clone couldn't help but curse angrily, and then began to move to the side. However, before it had escaped more than a few meters, it discovered that there were also members of the Dark Guard waiting there.

Upon seeing this, the shadow clone ripped off the sheet covering Uchiha Sasuke, revealing his face to the ANBU members who were poised to attack.

Of course, because he was bound, Sasuke Uchiha's right hand was tied behind his back, and with the shadow clones covering it, the Anbu couldn't possibly see what was happening to his hand.

"I've thought it through. This is the last remaining member of the Uchiha clan. If he dies, the Sharingan will probably become extinct in Konoha!"

The chilling voice made the ANBU members who were about to take action hesitate. Although they knew this guy had to be eliminated, Uchiha Sasuke was one of the ANBU's top protected targets. If he really died...

That's still a pity, after all, he was the only remaining member of the Uchiha clan.

"You don't want this guy to die either, do you? In that case, let's make a deal. You let me go, and this guy can continue to live. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

The shadow clone, while holding Uchiha Sasuke hostage, advanced towards an area that was not blocked by the Anbu.

The members of the secret service were somewhat surprised by this situation. It was best not to make any rash moves when there was no opportunity to act.

The shadow clone carried Uchiha Sasuke forward for several hundred meters, but just as the shadow clone was about to continue, a figure silently appeared behind him.

The fact that this person is completely invisible in one's field of vision is clearly a special ability.

The shadow clone could sense the presence of the evidence, but in order for the plan to continue, it had to pretend not to see it.

A kunai was thrust directly at the shadow clone's waist. The one who launched the attack was Gekko Hayate, who could be considered a genius, after all, he had the special ability to make himself invisible.

However, just when Hayate Gekko thought everything was settled, the shadow clone suddenly changed direction and the kunai pierced Sasuke Uchiha's arm.

"As expected of Konoha, it is truly full of talented people."

Seeing that Sasuke Uchiha's arm was starting to bleed, the shadow clone couldn't help but comment, and then immediately sped up with Sasuke Uchiha.

At the same time, the ANBU, who were already prepared, launched an attack on the shadow clone. It seemed that in order to prevent too much damage from being done to Uchiha Sasuke, the ANBU usually used kunai and shuriken in their attacks.

As for ninjutsu, we didn't see any, but with the start of the battle, the plan can be implemented more effectively.

To prevent the ANBU from feeling it was too fake, the shadow clone deliberately got hit by several shuriken, which immediately slowed down its escape speed.

This allowed the members of the secret service who were originally pursuing the enemy to complete the encirclement once again.

"What a pity, I thought we could leave."

Looking at the Anbu members around him, the shadow clone muttered to himself, and then directly conjured the Chidori Blade in his hand. It was actually a fusion of a chakra scalpel and Chidori, and was not much different from the Chidori Sharp Spear.

"Since the Hidden Cloud Village can't have it, then the Hidden Leaf Village shouldn't expect it either!"

A calm voice came, and the Chidori Blade slashed directly at the lifted Uchiha Sasuke. The shadow clone's goal was very clear: to cut him in half.

However, at this critical moment, Uchiha Sasuke's body, which had been lifted up, seemed to be pulled up by something. As the Chidori Blade fell, a gash was cut open in Uchiha Sasuke's waist, and his right arm and half of his left arm were severed.

The situation is slightly beyond expectations, but it's not a big problem!

Chapter 71 What did you say!

The fact that Sasuke Uchiha's body moved through the air seems absurd, but there are actually some clues to it.

The blood in his body successfully brought Moonlight Gale, which was originally invisible, into view, which means that this guy was the one who did it in the first place.

Of course, the shadow clone was aware of this, since Hongzhi had a strong sense of vitality due to his Yang attribute chakra.

Shadow clones naturally possess this ability, and it's essentially a passive ability that doesn't consume a single bit of chakra.

Damn it!

At that very moment, the members of the Anbu launched an attack on the shadow clone. Of course, during this process, one of them casually uttered a remark.

The Anbu's attack was swift, but the shadow clones moved even faster. The Anbu launched the attack because they saw that Uchiha Sasuke was about to be killed.

The shadow clone had been planning this from the beginning. Before Sasuke Uchiha's arm even fell to the ground, the shadow clone picked it up, and then blue lightning chakra swept across the area.

The ANBU who were about to launch the attack stopped abruptly. When the blinding lightning disappeared, the shadow clone and Sasuke Uchiha's arm vanished at the same time.

At the same time, a few leaves slowly fell from a tree outside the encirclement of the dark forces.

"Chase!"

Without much hesitation, the ANBU captain issued the order: if Sasuke Uchiha's hand cannot be retrieved, the last vestige of the Uchiha bloodline will be essentially rendered useless.

The Anbu's pursuit continued, while Sasuke Uchiha, who had been rescued by Hayate Gekko, was rapidly heading towards Konoha Hospital.

Hayate the Moon is quite fast; at least there's no need to worry about Sasuke Uchiha dying from blood loss.

Of course, since blood had been drawn beforehand, falling into a coma was inevitable.

Of course, this is not a big problem for Konoha Hospital.

The shadow clone used lightning chakra to briefly escape the pursuit of the ANBU, although the distance was only about fifty meters, which was within the range that the ANBU could see.

However, this distance is still enough to achieve the final goal, such as sealing Uchiha Sasuke's arm in the scroll.

The scroll had been prepared beforehand; all the shadow clone needed to do was open it and inject chakra to complete the seal.

Although the process was simple, it still allowed the members of the secret service to reduce the distance from fifty meters to about ten meters, which was already a distance that could be used to launch an attack.

Just then, the shadow clone threw the sealed scroll into the distance, then turned around and conjured a Thousand Birds, rushing towards the Anbu behind him.

Upon seeing this, most of the Anbu members stopped. Of course, two others bypassed the shadow clone from the side, trying to retrieve the scroll that the shadow clone had thrown out.

Everything was the perfect arrangement. In the eyes of the Anbu, this spy from Kumogakure was simply courting death.

However, just when everyone thought the matter was over, the Cloud Village spy who had rushed over turned into a cloud of smoke.

The members of the Anbu who witnessed this scene were somewhat bewildered. If the Cloud Village spy they had been chasing was a shadow clone, then where was the real one?

And how could a spy from Kumogakure use shadow clones?

Before this question could be resolved, even more troublesome things followed. The two ANBU who had bypassed the shadow clones to collect the scrolls watched helplessly as the scrolls that had fallen to the ground turned into a cloud of smoke.

"Spiritualism?!"

An incredulous voice came from afar. The dark squad leader's face was extremely ugly. He had been fooled by the shadow clone for so long, and most importantly, he hadn't even gotten a hair out of it. It was really a pity.

"not good!"

Seemingly realizing something, the captain of the Dark Army began to pursue Konoha directly. If this wasn't the main body, then where was the main body?

Although there is no concrete evidence, the most likely culprit is probably Hayate Gekko. It seems extremely difficult for Hayate Gekko alone to successfully intercept the spies from Kumogakure.

The Anbu members headed straight for Konoha. In fact, their concerns were completely unnecessary. At this moment, Hiroji had already begun to reverse-divide Uchiha Sasuke's arm.

Of course, the blood will become nutrients for Uchiha Sasuke's stem cells. As for Uchiha Sasuke himself, Hiroji has no interest in him.

Konoha is relatively stable now, but if Sasuke Uchiha dies, it will probably become unstable very quickly. Putting aside everything else, the guy who slaughtered his entire clan to awaken his brother's Sharingan will probably go insane.

He might even directly attack Konoha. With that guy's strength, he's definitely capable of turning Konoha upside down, and his first target upon arriving in Konoha should be Root.

After all, Itachi Uchiha knew some inside information, such as the cause of Shisui Uchiha's death. It was only natural that he would first suspect Danzo.

Of course, there's another possibility: Itachi Uchiha might directly invade Kumogakure...

Both possibilities exist, but the former is more likely. After all, Konoha is a strong village, and it's really not right for it to be ridden around by spies from Kumogakure.

Therefore, it's more likely that Itachi Uchiha came to Konoha, which is unexpected, so Sasuke Uchiha still has to live.

Hayate Gekko successfully brought Sasuke Uchiha into Konoha Hospital. Konoha Hospital has medical ninjas on night shift, so Sasuke Uchiha, who was in a coma, was still alive.

Moreover, since it is a case of hemorrhagic coma, it is almost certain that the patient will be able to continue living.

However, if one wants to continue becoming a ninja, the first thing to solve is the problem of the arm and the connection of the spinal nerves.

The latter can be restored with a simple palm technique, while the former probably only has a sliver of hope of being revived.

While the on-duty medical ninja was assessing the injuries of the bandaged Uchiha Sasuke, the Anbu member Hayate Gekko arrived at the Hokage's office.

"What did you say!"

After listening to Gekko Hayate's brief report, Hiruzen Sarutobi, his face ashen, stood up abruptly.

Sasuke Uchiha was almost kidnapped, and the culprit was confirmed to be a spy from Kumogakure. All of this made it impossible for Hiruzen Sarutobi to remain calm.

The importance of Uchiha Sasuke is self-evident. He was an orphan of the Uchiha clan, and also the child that Uchiha Itachi entrusted to him for care.

In Hiruzen Sarutobi's view, although Itachi Uchiha's actions were somewhat extreme, he undoubtedly protected the village to the greatest extent possible.

Calling him a hero of Konoha is no exaggeration. Now that Sasuke Uchiha is in trouble, how is he supposed to face that guy?

Chapter 72 is too long.

The incident involving Uchiha Sasuke forced Hiruzen Sarutobi to temporarily forget about what had happened in the back mountains of Konoha.

Of course, Hiruzen Sarutobi still had some doubts in his heart: was the person in the back mountain of Konoha in cahoots with the people who were targeting Sasuke Uchiha?

However, that consideration is obviously not particularly important now. The most urgent task is to find a way to wake up Uchiha Sasuke and enable him to become a ninja.

As for the remaining issues, we can only consider them after confirming Sasuke Uchiha's safety, since the news coming from the back mountains of Konoha is not optimistic.

In his hospital room at Konoha Hospital, Uchiha Sasuke stared blankly at the ceiling. Because his spinal nerves had not yet been reconnected, Uchiha Sasuke could not feel any pain in his body, which could be considered good news.

At least he didn't have to feel pain, although Uchiha Sasuke still knew what had happened to him.

That's not entirely true. He wasn't clear on the basic details, but he did have a general understanding of some things.

A spy from the Hidden Cloud Village infiltrated his home and kidnapped him, but he was eventually rescued by the Anbu.

Otherwise, he would have been cut in half at the waist, but even so, the injuries on his body could be described as horrifying.

With both arms severed, it would be impossible for him to perform hand seals in the future. As for the remaining spinal nerves, he didn't quite understand them, but the medical ninja said that there was still a possibility of recovery.

Falling into a coma is not a pleasant experience, but with the treatment from medical ninjas and the infusion of special nutrient solutions, Uchiha Sasuke gradually regained consciousness.

But there was nothing he could do. Thinking back to what had happened tonight, Uchiha Sasuke felt like an ant with no power to fight back.

He could only watch helplessly as he was ravaged, unable to put up even the slightest resistance. If their goal from the beginning was his life, he probably wouldn't be here thinking about these useless things.

Although he didn't speak, Sasuke Uchiha's expression gradually became ferocious. Ever since that day, he had been yearning to become stronger and one day be able to kill that butcher. However, the result of his hard work training at the Ninja Academy was that he couldn't even deal with the spies from Kumogakure.
