The Devil of Konoha: Starting as a Medical Ninja

"up to you."

Hiroji had no idea what Kakashi was thinking. If Sakura Haruno were there, she would definitely be pushing Sasuke Uchiha's wheelchair, which would make things easier for Hiroji.

"The entire Seventh Squad will have a month off and will not be on any missions. They will be under your care during this time."

Seeing that Hongzhi did not refuse, Kakashi nodded and then prepared to entrust the child directly. If it were before, he would definitely have slacked off and read books, but now Kakashi only wanted to improve his strength.

"You're going to the Land of Waves for revenge?"

Seeing Kakashi like this, Hiroji asked curiously, "With Kakashi's strength, facing Zabuza shouldn't be a problem, especially after he's been trained."

"How could that be? Why would I go to the Land of Waves? Tazuna is already locked up in the Anbu prison, and he probably won't be able to get out for the rest of his life. That mission has already failed, so there's no need to go to the Land of Waves."

Kakashi looked at Hiroji and spoke calmly. Although he had considered seeking revenge on Zabuza, he realized that it wouldn't lead to anything.

It's even possible that pushing Zabuza to the brink would cause him to reveal Naruto's identity as a Jinchuriki, which would be quite tragic.

"Then what are you going to do? Go read a book, don't tell me?"

Hongzhi looked at Kakashi and asked with some curiosity. He had seen Kakashi's training, which was extremely intense. If Kakashi trained like that for a month, he should have no problem regaining his original strength.

Of course, this is on the premise that Kakashi possesses a finishing move like Lightning Blade; otherwise, he definitely wouldn't be able to reach his original level.

"No, I can no longer use the Lightning Blade after losing my Sharingan. I'm planning to see if I can modify it. If so, at least I won't have to..."

Kakashi didn't finish speaking, but Hiroji understood his thoughts. After all, it was a ninjutsu he had developed, and Kakashi still didn't want to give it up.

So he planned to spend a month seeing if he could improve the Raiche.

Do you have any ideas?

Hongzhi looked at Kakashi with some anticipation. If he remembered correctly, after the Fourth Shinobi World War, Kakashi's Lightning Blade had transformed into Purple Lightning.

Hongzhi even suspected that it was a bloodline limit, but whether Kakashi could develop it this time was a question. No matter how Kakashi developed it, Hongzhi was still quite curious.

Putting everything else aside, if Kakashi were to create a completely new ninjutsu, wouldn't Hongzhi be able to get it for free?

"One thing is certain: the spies from Kumogakure who caused such a stir in Konoha gave me some inspiration. If I could condense the Lightning Blade into a shape similar to a chakra scalpel, perhaps I wouldn't have to worry about my eyes not being able to keep up!"

Hiroji, who had expected Kakashi to have some new ideas, twitched at the corner of his mouth when he heard this. The idea was indeed wonderful, but Hiroji had originally been referencing the future Uchiha Sasuke.

If that's the case, how should this be calculated?

Hiroji copied the future Uchiha Sasuke, while Kakashi is now copying Hiroji. In the future, Kakashi may even teach this move to Uchiha Sasuke.

In short, Sasuke Uchiha skipped the process of improving the Lightning Blade, allowing him to spend more time developing a completely new Lightning Release.

"A brilliant idea. If it succeeds, your strength will likely reach a new level compared to when you had the Sharingan."

Although I really want to complain, I still have to compliment Kakashi. His ideas are indeed very impressive. If I hadn't already learned them, I would definitely be attracted to him.

But since Hongzhi had already learned it, it didn't make any sense.

It's a real headache when someone tries to steal your skills and ends up doing it themselves.

Chapter 135 Flying Thunder God

The next morning, when Hiroji was preparing to perform surgery on Uchiha Sasuke, he discovered that the nurse who had been pushing the wheelchair was gone.

Instead, Sakura Haruno took her place. Hiroji didn't react much to this; whether it was Sakura Haruno or the nurse, they were just tools anyway.

The surgery went exceptionally smoothly. After taking off his white coat, Hongzhi looked directly at Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto.

"We will continue chakra control training today."

Without saying much, Hongzhi walked directly in front, with the three behind him following slowly.

Sakura Haruno performed quite well, but it was also rather tragic. For a while afterward, Hiroji definitely wouldn't teach them anything; Kakashi would be their teacher.

Hiroji is just a lazy bum. The laboratory that Hiroji requested first at the Land of Waves base has been built. This is the information Hiroji received from his shadow clone last night.

So today, Hongzhi needs to move, and then he can conduct experiments and training in the Land of Waves. As for Konoha, we can basically give up on it.

Because of this, Hongzhi no longer cared about his identity being exposed. Even if exposed, he would still have the equipment to conduct experiments. As for his ability to protect himself, Hongzhi was still quite strong.

Unless facing an invincible enemy, Hongzhi would basically never lose.

The training of Class 7 was very rigorous, and even Sakura Haruno trained like crazy. This process lasted for a full half month.

On the sixteenth day, Hongzhi once again came to Konoha Hospital in person, not for any other reason than that Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto would be able to fully recover today.

Under such circumstances, Hongzhi would definitely come in person. Uchiha Sasuke was wheeled into the operating room and left walking, as was Uzumaki Naruto.

After the surgery was completely finished, Kakashi came over again. Seeing that the two of them were completely healthy, Kakashi was extremely happy.

Then Kakashi treated everyone to dinner. The next day, Hiroji was still conducting experiments at the Land of Waves laboratory, while the three members of Team 7 were still doing tree-climbing training.

After three days of observation, Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki were discharged from the hospital, while the shadow clone continued to supervise their training.

Sasuke Uchiha made steady progress in his training, Sakura Haruno's control over chakra was also improving, and Naruto Uzumaki's improvement was the fastest.

Kakashi was very pleased with this. He even came over and guided the three of them for a while. Then Kakashi discovered that the next day, Hiroji had simply disappeared.

Kakashi was somewhat helpless about this and could only train the three of them. Compared to Hiroji's training, which only focused on improving their chakra control, Kakashi's training was much more exciting.

So the three of them felt that Hiroji's training was just like that, until they started fighting with Kakashi.

While Team 7 was in a state of shock, Hiroji's shadow clone was sitting in the empty laboratory of Konoha Hospital.

Before him lay a scroll, a scroll about the Palm Immortal Technique...

When Kudo Yuuya saw Hiroji sitting in Konoha Hospital in a daze again, the corners of her mouth slightly turned up, and she immediately ordered everyone not to disturb Hiroji.

Meanwhile, Hiroji's true form was busy in the laboratory of the Land of Waves.

At this moment, only Hongzhi was in the laboratory. He stared intently at the test tube in front of him, his eyes filled with anticipation.

This contains Haku's stem cells. Of course, Hongzhi will not inject them, since based on Haku's blood and his observations over this period, Hongzhi has determined the chakra ratio for the Ice Release bloodline limit fusion.

If it weren't for the fact that Hongzhi hadn't yet cultivated wind attribute transformation, he would have wanted to try fusing one of the higher and lower attributes.

As for the stem cells in front of him, Hongzhi added other things to them. If the experiment is successful, then perhaps the Ice Release Bloodline Limit drug can be mass-produced.

Of course, the raw materials require the blood of someone with the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai...

This is a problem that Hongzhi cannot solve. Even if he obtains the blood of someone with the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai in this way, it cannot be used as raw material.

After waiting quietly for a few minutes, Hongzhi looked at the solution in front of him that had suddenly turned ice blue and his lips curled up slightly. However, the test tube cracked open the next second.

Hongzhi's smile froze. He tried several more times but still couldn't succeed, which made him feel somewhat helpless.

That's how experiments are done, but Hongzhi has still made some progress in the past two weeks, although he can't integrate Haku's Ice Release into his body in this way.

However, Hongzhi's previous research was successful, as it could grant ordinary people special abilities through special arrangements.

For example, by extracting blood from animals, one can give wandering ninjas animal-like characteristics.

However, the side effect was quite significant; the wandering ninja showed signs of transforming into a dog-man. Fortunately, Hongzhi used the Impure World Reincarnation technique to completely free him.

"Since this path is not feasible, there is no need to continue researching it. It was just a passing fancy anyway, so let's continue researching Flying Thunder God."

After Hongzhi put these things away, he did not continue to study them, although if he had continued to study them, they could certainly have been perfected generation after generation.

But this was of no use, and Hongzhi would not use them to build a ninja army and then directly rule the entire ninja world.

A month passed in this way. Team 7 had already begun its mission, but Hiroji still hadn't appeared, and the shadow clone was still sitting in Konoha Hospital every day.

This isn't a big problem, and even Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't say anything about it.

Inside the Land of Waves base late at night, the shadow clone was still diligently training with the Dark Water Dragon Bullet, while in the laboratory, Hiroji looked at the Flying Thunder God scroll in front of him with some complicated feelings.

Hongzhi had fully understood the contents of the Flying Thunder God Scroll, and it would be quite simple for him to use it.

However, Hongzhi felt that the scroll could still be modified slightly. Of course, the core transfer part could not be changed, but Hongzhi could make some changes to the other parts.

Several hours later, Hongzhi stopped, and a brand new scroll appeared in front of him. This was the Flying Thunder God Scroll that Hongzhi had modified.

The rest of the parts remained largely unchanged; Hongzhi's only contribution was a slight alteration to the technique that formed the Flying Thunder God mark.

Previously, Hongzhi had been using spirit communication to steal important items, but now he can say goodbye to that somewhat cumbersome method.

As he closed the scroll, blue chakra patterns appeared in Hongzhi's hand, and then the Flying Thunder God Technique formula was inscribed on the scroll.

[Flying Thunder God; 20%]

Chapter 136 The Bloodline Limit of a Medical Ninja

If the previous Flying Thunder God technique involved the caster flying to the location of the spell, then the Flying Thunder God technique modified by Hongzhi allows for bidirectional travel.

Hongzhi can fly directly to places marked with the Flying Thunder God Technique formula, or summon those with the Flying Thunder God Technique formula inscribed in his hand.

Of course, it must be something that cannot be resisted, and the size and distance of the object will affect the chakra used by Flying Thunder God.

Some fixed things cannot be summoned. For example, it would be absurd for Hongzhi to summon a tree directly.

After the spell formula was inscribed on the scroll, Hongzhi put it away and left some shadow clones to inscribe the more important parts onto the new Flying Thunder God spell formula.

With the Flying Thunder God Technique, Hongzhi's travels will be much easier. Of course, if he wants to go back now, he still needs to wait a while, as there is no Flying Thunder God Technique in Konoha.

While waiting, Hongzhi inscribed the Flying Thunder God Technique formula in the laboratory, so that he could conduct experiments here in the future and train his shadow clones.

Hongzhi's Multiple Shadow Clone Technique has reached Limit Break +8, and his number of shadow clones is approaching two thousand. Perhaps after the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique reaches Limit Break +10, Hongzhi will truly be able to possess three thousand shadow clones.

After putting away the shadow clone, Hongzhi discovered that the Yin attribute change had reached the limit +9, which made Hongzhi start to think about the main aspects to improve next.

As for bloodline limit development, Hongzhi had no clue about the Yin and Yang attributes. The only thing he needed to do next was to develop the Lightning and Water attributes.

It's a storm escape technique.

Of course, this wasn't just a random thought from Hongzhi. If he could create the Storm Release, he could obtain the Bloodline Limit in the shortest amount of time.

Whether Yang or Yin attributes are added later, Hongzhi has experience, and the power of the Bloodline Elimination is definitely stronger than that of a normal Bloodline Limit.

The only downside is that it doesn't cause any special changes in the body.

With a new goal in mind, Hiroji went directly to the root base before even starting any experiments.

Hiroji had no problem with this, and directly engraved the Flying Thunder God mark in a hidden place in the Root base, and then returned home under the cover of night.

Originally, the shadow clone was directly dispelled here, and a large amount of research on palm immortal techniques flooded into his mind, which did not surprise Hongzhi at all.

The shadow clones slacking off at Konoha Hospital was something Hiroji had planned long ago. The appearance of these memories suddenly reminded Hiroji of what Sarutobi Hiruzen had once said.

It seems it's time to let the shadow clones practice medical ninjutsu. Let's choose Healing Palm Technique directly. It's the foundation of advanced medical ninjutsu, and Hongzhi feels that the higher the level of Healing Palm Technique, the more similar it is to Yang-attribute chakra.
