Chapter 9 Konoha Hospital
He closed his eyes, then opened them, and began to move his body, performing the movements little by little.
Then he closed his eyes again, opening them once more, carefully sensing every subtle change in his body as he moved and channeled his energy.
Every time he closed his eyes, he was browsing through Hiruzen Sarutobi's memories, learning about the secrets hidden within the human body in those ninjutsu, secret techniques, and forbidden techniques.
Through the valuable knowledge that predecessors in this world have explored, combined with my own experience of becoming a martial arts master, I gradually explored and mastered this body, and only then did I know how to train in a targeted manner.
With his master's experience, the valuable knowledge recorded by the Third Hokage, and of course the powerful physical foundation that the Third Hokage himself possessed as one of the world's top experts.
He was confident that he could return to the Transformation Realm of a martial arts master as quickly as possible.
Hmm, maybe it could be even faster.
Thinking of medical ninjutsu, he began a more 'extreme' exploration of his body.
He changed his posture and adopted a more risky way of channeling his energy. Soon, he felt a pain in a certain place, and he felt a faint injury.
Then, he raised his hand, and green light emanated from it, covering the injured area.
Of course, the injury didn't heal automatically just by covering it with his hand.
Medical ninjutsu is an extremely specialized form of ninjutsu, and in his view, it is an extremely scientific form of ninjutsu.
Or rather, the fundamental understanding of ninjutsu itself contains a strong scientific component.
After all, the extraction of chakra involves cells, which is quite a scientific understanding.
Medical ninjutsu, in particular, requires a concrete scientific understanding, a realistic grasp of the body. Without this understanding, how can one perform precise procedures?
Fortunately, the Third Hokage was a ninjutsu expert, possessing considerable medical ninjutsu skills and a deep understanding of his own body, which he then absorbed.
In addition, he had already considered the potential damage when he was channeling his energy.
Therefore, this meticulous medical ninjutsu operation was quite successful.
He smiled with satisfaction.
"With the aid of medical ninjutsu, I can better explore the hidden secrets of the human body.
I can also more effectively tailor my training methods to the specific needs of my body."
Of course, this doesn't start from the basics. The Third Hokage's body was already very strong, and Konoha Village also had its own Konoha Fluid Techniques.
In addition, the presence of chakra allowed for a thorough workout in many parts of the body.
However, this training is incomplete, and there are still many aspects that have not been taken into account.
It can only be said that it relies too much on ninjutsu and does not carry out a more internal and in-depth comprehensive development of physical training...
But that's not surprising.
Ninjas often had very short lifespans, and their physical training often involved pushing their bodies to their limits to achieve results.
He had no intention of criticizing; having absorbed the body's memories, he understood the general environment of the ninja world. In such an environment, exploiting the body was better than being shot to death by kunai shuriken.
Everything is for the sake of fighting.
However, precisely because everything is for the sake of fighting, many of the fighting techniques are indeed very practical.
The problem lies in the lack of proper nurturing techniques, making it difficult to achieve a higher level of transformation.
This can only be attributed to insufficient demand caused by environmental factors.
Seeking methods for cultivation in martial arts also requires a stable environment.
And on the Earth he came from, the most stable environment throughout history has been the Central Plains region.
Although some argue that chaotic times bring about changes and developments in martial arts, how could martial arts have developed to such a high level as 'internal martial arts' without the necessary resources and space provided by a stable world?
The ninja world has always lacked this stability.
Judging from Hiruzen Sarutobi's memories of the ninja world's history, it seems that the ninja world has been plagued by constant conflict since its inception.
Thinking of such a ninja world, he couldn't help but frown.
I have a feeling that this world is permeated with some kind of deep-seated malice...
Orochimaru had assumed that his teacher would come to see him eventually, but several days passed and his teacher did not appear again.
I've only heard that the teacher sometimes goes to the Ninja Technique Archives, or the Forbidden Technique Library, or to Konoha Hospital to look at the various medical and human data collected there, or to the Konoha Library to consult some information.
Besides that, I would set aside time each day to go to scenic riverbanks or high places with open views to practice some strange poses.
The exercises didn't seem intense; at most, they could only loosen up the muscles and bones—at least that's how it appeared to others.
To the ninjas, it was impossible to see any value in these exercises; could they really increase strength?
They just couldn't see it.
But the person who practices like this is the Third Hokage! The legendary strongest Hokage!
So, is this kind of training worthwhile?
Some people have actually tried to learn it, but they don't feel that it brings any changes to themselves.
When Orochimaru found out, he thought that perhaps the Third Hokage was really getting old, and it was just the usual way for an elderly person to loosen their muscles and bones?
Probably.
"Have someone tell the teacher that I want to see him," Orochimaru ordered.
"Yes, Lord Orochimaru."
Soon, I'll be calling him Hokage-sama.
Orochimaru thought to himself, "The daimyo's messenger is already on his way."
At that time, his title of Hokage will no longer have the prefix "quasi-Hokage".
The Third Hokage visited Konoha Hospital once again. The hospital was bustling; after all, the Nine-Tails' attack had only recently occurred, and there were still many injured and sick patients requiring care.
As a result, a lot of medical resources were also mobilized to Konoha Hospital.
Of course, with the Hokage's arrival, the hospital certainly didn't dare to neglect him, and the hospital's head personally received him.
Yakushi Tenzen, the head of Konoha Hospital.
This is a woman with long, beige hair, wearing round-framed glasses, and a gentle smile.
At only twenty-six years old, he is already considered one of Konoha's top medical ninja elites.
He was the former leader of Konoha's medical team, leading the team in battlefield first aid during the Fourth Shinobi World War, and his contributions were considerable.
It's worth noting that the previous leader of the medical team was Tsunade, the princess of Konoha, the creator of the medical ninja system, the world's strongest medical ninja, and also the strongest doctor!
Yakushi Tenzen can be considered Tsunade's successor in some respects, which shows the extent of her expertise in medical ninjutsu.
It can be said that, excluding Tsunade, she is the most skilled and well-rounded medical ninja in Konoha.
Within Konoha's medical ninja system, a more systematic and further organization was carried out, with some unique innovations. While her natural talent may not be as great as Tsunade's, she excels in systematic organization.
They made a very significant contribution to the systematization of Konoha's medical system.
