Naruto: You Call This A Medical Ninja?

Chapter 559: Chapter 559: A Little Help



Reiki didn't immediately address Tsunade's concerns. Instead, he focused on finishing her treatment. After a few seconds, he had a clear understanding of her condition.

Tsunade's natural resilience as a member of the Senju clan, combined with the blessings of the Shikkotsu Forest's Sage Techniques, had already repaired much of her internal trauma. Of the three, Orochimaru was in the worst condition—having been pinned by Kaguya's black rods was far from a pleasant experience.

Reiki broke the silence.

"Teacher, Lord Orochimaru, and Lord Jiraiya, you might want to pay close attention to Hatake Sakumo's battle. You could learn something new."

While continuing Tsunade's treatment, Reiki subtly redirected their attention. His plan was simple: keep everyone engaged in improving themselves while he focused on supporting the fighters.

This wasn't just any training—it was Kaguya Otsutsuki's special training, and some of the most powerful ninjas from all villages were present. Even Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina were participating, though they had only managed to last three minutes earlier.

Originally, treatment duties had been Tsunade's responsibility. But with her now participating in the battles, Reiki had taken over.

"Hatake Sakumo!?" Tsunade exclaimed, her eyebrows raised. "He went up alone? I thought he was teaming with the Uchiha."

Her surprise turned into disbelief as she watched Sakumo fight. His movements were faster, more precise, and far more powerful than anything she had seen from him before. Each swing of his blade carried chakra strong enough to breach Kaguya's formidable defenses.

"What's going on? Did he eat some kind of miracle pill?" Tsunade muttered, her eyes narrowing.

Uchiha Shisui, watching from the sidelines, couldn't contain his admiration.

"Is this the true power of Hatake Sakumo, the White Fang of Konoha?" Shisui said, his voice filled with awe. As someone who excelled with blades, Shisui couldn't help but feel inspired by Sakumo's elegance in battle.

Just then, Killer Bee walked over to Shisui with his trademark grin.

"Hey, kid! That White Fang's got some serious skills. How about we invite him to team up with us next round?" Bee asked. "My sword skills aren't bad either, you know."

"Sounds good!" Shisui replied enthusiastically, raising his fist for a bump. "Who knows? Maybe we'll be good friends one day."

The two shared a fist bump, but before Shisui could enjoy his budding camaraderie with Bee, a small fist smashed into the back of his head, burying him into the ground.

"Shisui! You're teaming with me next round, got it?!" Nozuki growled, glaring down at him.

Bee, seeing Nozuki's fiery expression, wisely kept his mouth shut.

"I'll find Reiki!" Nozuki huffed before storming off toward Reiki's direction.

Meanwhile, Shisui scrambled to his feet. "Kirabi, sorry, but I think I'll have to team up with Roy first." He darted after Nozuki, leaving Bee standing there with a blank expression.

Am I just a clown to them? Bee thought, sighing.

The reunion didn't go as smoothly as Shisui and Nozuki had hoped.

"What's going on with you two?" Reiki asked, frowning as he took in their less-than-perfect conditions. "Didn't I give you enough potions? Or did you feed them to Kakashi's summon beasts for fun?"

Nozuki rubbed the back of her neck awkwardly. "Well… we wanted to train using our natural strength. You know, to maximize the gains."

"Natural strength?" Reiki scoffed. "So now your teammates don't matter, huh? It's all about showing off your individual power?" He sighed theatrically. "Next time, I'll just give you herbal tea… How about that?"

Before Reiki could continue his tirade, Tsunade delivered a swift punch to the back of his head.

"Enough joking around. Tell me what you gave Sakumo to make him so strong!" she demanded, her patience wearing thin.

Reiki winced, rubbing his head. "Fine, fine! I gave him a little help—a mix of chakra from the nine tailed beasts and the core essence of the Ten-Tails. That's all."

"That's all?!" Tsunade's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Yeah. With that, Uncle Sakumo can temporarily reach Six Paths-level strength. I just wanted to see how much he could improve," Reiki explained casually.

Everyone around him froze, their jaws dropping.

Nine tailed beasts? The core of the Ten-Tails? Reiki had tossed these around as if they were spare ingredients in a kitchen.

"We want that too," Tsunade said firmly, clenching her fists. "No excuses."

"Of course, Teacher," Reiki replied with a grin. "I'll give you all the support you need."

Before anyone could press him further, Reiki excused himself to treat Orochimaru, with Nozuki and Shisui trailing behind him.

Despite the chaos of the training camp, moments like these reaffirmed the bonds between the group. As Reiki worked, the camaraderie between him, Nozuki, and Shisui became evident. Their friendship, forged through countless battles and shared struggles, remained unshakable.

Meanwhile, watching from afar, Kaguya Otsutsuki was quietly observing. Her expression was unreadable, but the glint in her eyes suggested that she, too, was beginning to understand the potential of these ninjas—and the one boy who had become the center of it all.

Kaguya's training had taken on a whole new meaning.
