Chapitre 117: Chapter 117 - 5th Year and Medic Training
A few days had passed since Daichi took the test and successfully became Tsunade's newest apprentice. She told Daichi that his training would begin only after he received his academy assignments for the current year.
Yesterday a chunin from the village brought Daichi a scroll containing the curriculum and assignments he needed to complete for the fifth year. It was specifically designed just for Daichi by Iruka on the Hokage's orders.
Daichi went through everything in the scroll that night and found that it wasn't all that difficult for him to complete it. After making a mental training plan for the year he went to sleep.
April 1st.
Daichi woke up early in the morning. The long running quest was updated.
[Ongoing quest - 'Path to the strongest' updated.]
'Let's see what I have to do this year?'
[Tasks to complete this year have been updated. Training clothes in your inventory have been modified. Wear them when completing the daily quests.]
[Conditions:[
[Complete 500 Push ups (Daily)]
[Complete 500 Squats (Daily)]
[Complete 500 Punches (Daily)]
[Run 30 Kilometers (Daily)]
[Complete at least 1 Dungeon before the end of March next year.]
[Train under Tsunade Senju and learn over 15 different medical ninjutsu techniques.]
[Learn advanced chakra control techniques. ]
[Complete academic assignments before the final exam of this curriculum.]
'Hmm… So the conditions were modified according to the situation, huh! Learning 15 different medical ninjutsu, advanced chakra control, academy assignments… I've got a lot to do.'
Rather than be intimidated by the sheer amount of goals he needed to complete, Daichi was excited. His desire to improve himself was greater than one could understand. After reading the conditions needed to clear the quest this year he looked over the rewards.
[Rewards:]
[Status Recovery (Daily)]
[Random Reward(Weekly)]
[+3 Stat Points (Weekly) ]
[+3000 Exp clearing a Dungeon.]
[Reward for clearing additional dungeons.]
[New Skill for successfully completing all tasks.]
'The daily and weekly rewards are the same. But the reward for dungeon clearing is now different. Instead of skill or title it's exp for the first dungeon I raid… New skill huh… Please don't let it be anything like the last one…'
[Failure:]
[-5 Stat points.]
[Penalty Dungeon.]
[Death.]
[Accept] (Y/N)
Daichi accepted the quest without hesitation and looked at the training gear in his inventory.
[Weighted Training Clothes] [Rare Item: Rank C]
[...Consists of 2 leg warmers to be worn below the knee and 2 arm sleeves to be worn below the elbow. Each weighing exactly 10 KG.
Consists of 1 undershirt and 1 trouser to be worn under the clothes. Each weighing exactly 30 KG.]
'Wow. 100 kilos. The system is starting to increase the weights by a large margin. Still it's nothing I can't handle.'
Daichi began his morning workouts. '100 kilos may seem like a small amount when working out but it's a different story when I'm wearing these weighted clothes all the time.'
Daichi diligently completed each of his daily exercises and was done within an hour. He freshened up and went to meet his new teacher Tsunade Senju.
Daichi arrived at the slug Sannin's apartment and was greeted by Shizune. He entered and saw Lady Tsunade looking out at the balcony wistfully. Noticing his arrival she became serious and came near him.
"Before we begin, I need to know a few things from you." Tsunade spoke with an authoritative tone.
Daichi stood straight and looked at her. "What do you want to know?"
"Show me the Rasengan. Jiraiya said you mastered the jutsu and based on my observations on your chakra control and the strength of your coils, I'm inclined to agree with him… But still, I want a demonstration."
Daichi nodded and brought his right hand up. In an instant a round ball of spinning chakra gathered and was rotating on Daichi's palm.
Tsunade looked at the jutsu for several seconds. "That's enough. It seems you have the change in chakra form down. How far have you come along in change in chakra nature training?"
"I've completed the two steps of Earth, Fire and Water nature." Daichi replied.
Shizune, who was standing behind Daichi, was astounded. 'He's only 10 years old and yet he already mastered 3 elements? His talent is incredible.'
Tsunade looked at the kid and was surprised as well but she kept a calm face. 'Jiraiya wasn't kidding about his talents. This kid could be on the same level or even greater than the late fourth.'
"Lemme guess. You plan to master the remaining two as well?!" Tsunade asked Daichi but it was phrased more as a statement than a question.
Daichi nodded in agreement. "I was thinking of completing Lightning nature this year and Wind nature by the end of next."
The female sannin frowned as she looked at the boy. "Do you really think you can learn medical ninjutsu while also completing your academy assignments and master lightning chakra nature?"
"Yes!" Daichi replied without hesitation.
The resolute reply stunned the woman. Then she thought about his accomplishments so far and decided to move forward.
"You plan on becoming a front line fighter don't you?"
"Yeah."
Tsunade narrowed her eyes and looked at the boy. "There are three rules I taught Shizune before I started her training. If you're going to be a medic ninja trained under me then you'll have to obey those rules."
Daichi narrowed his eyes but said nothing. He knew what she was about to say.
"Rule 1. A medic ninja must never give up on treatment until their patient's dying breath… Rule 2. A medic ninja must never go to the frontlines!... Rule 3. A medic ninja should always be the last of their platoon to die."
Tsunade paused to see the kid's reaction to her words but Daichi was as still as a statue.
"If you want to learn medical ninjutsu from me you'll have to forget about fighting on the front lines." Tsunade was saying these words to test Daichi. She wanted to see his reaction.
After a few seconds Daichi spoke with a slight cold tone. "You seem to have misunderstood something, Lady Tsunade. I'm a ninja first and will be a medic second. I have no intention of staying away from the frontlines."
"Then you won't be learning from me!" Tsunade crossed her arms and spoke.
"Did you stay away?" Daichi asked.
Tsunade raised an eyebrow.
"Did you stay away from the battlefield, knowing that your presence there could change the outcome."
Tsunade was quiet for a few seconds but then sighed slightly and replied. "No. I went to war side by side with my teammates."
Daichi nodded. "Then you understand… Besides, isn't there one more rule…"
Tsunade looked at the child in front of her and smirked. "Yes. Rule 4! A medic ninja who masters the 'Ninja art of Mitotic Regeneration, the 100 healings' may ignore the first three rules!"
Daichi smirked as he looked at his teacher. "I want to learn medical ninjutsu under you. All your techniques and skills. I want to learn them all. But I will also be fighting in the thick of the battle at all times."
Tsunade tilted her head to the side and spoke. "It seems there is only one solution for that problem."
"Yeah. I'm going to learn the 'Mitotic Regeneration 100 healing technique' before I become a Genin." Daichi was absolutely confident that he could achieve this.
Shizune was shocked at the declaration but Tsunade merely snorted. "Do you really think you can do it in just a few years? It's a special forbidden jutsu created by me. The level of difficulty of mastering that is not something to be taken lightly."
Daichi smiled as he looked at the woman in front of him. "Are you still underestimating me, Lady Tsunade?"
The smirk on her face vanished as she looked at Daichi's confident face. 'Can he really do it? Can he learn that jutsu in just a few years?...'
She sighed. "I guess we'll find out won't we? Let's see if you can pull off your magic trick one more time."
"Wanna make that a bet?" Daichi asked with a devilish smile.
A tick mark formed on Tsunade's head as she heard the boy's cocky tone. "Do you want me to send you flying again?"
Daichi immediately straightened and bowed. "No Tsunade sensei. I'll be good." The horror of what he experienced that day won't be forgotten for a long time.
"Ha! That's more like it. Now come on. There's no point in delaying it any longer. We'll begin your training today." Tsunade said and walked with Daichi and Shizune following her.
The trio plus Shizune's pet pig were walking down the streets of the capital.
"Umm… Where are we going?" Daichi asked the woman.
"You'll see when we get there." Tsunade didn't elaborate anymore and kept walking with the other two following her. Before long she reached the destination.
The trio was in front of the Fire Capital's hospital.
Tsunade quickly led them inside. There she met an older man wearing a white doctor's coat. He was tall, had tan skin and a white beard and mustache and was wearing round glasses.
"Lady Tsunade! You're here." The man spoke.
"Thank you for indulging me Karuizawa. I appreciate it." Daichi was surprised at how polite Tsunade was when speaking to the man.
The man waved his hand as if it was no big deal. "Think nothing of it. This is the least I could do for all the help you've done over the years."
The man now identified as Karuizawa looked over to Shizune. "Oh Shizune!. You've grown up so much. I hear you're an excellent medic just like your teacher here."
Shizune slightly bowed and answered. "Thank you Karuizawa senpai."
The man then looked towards Daichi. He rubbed his chin as he looked at the boy. "So this is the kid huh. He's a bit young isn't he? Do you think he's ready?" He asked, turning his attention to Tsunade.
"Trust me, he's capable. Don't let his age fool you."
Karuizawa nodded. "Well, if he has your seal of approval then I approve… What's your name, young man?"
"Daichi Hekima, sir."
Karuizawa smiled as he looked at Daichi. "It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Karuizawa. I'm the head of the hospital here. Lady Tsunade came and told me about you a couple days ago. This is where you'll be training for a while."
Daichi had a feeling it was something like that. He bowed and replied. "Thank you for the opportunity."
"Come on, I'll show you to your room." With those words, the man turned around and started walking. He led them to a medium sized room with an examination bed, table and sufficient equipment.
"I believe this will do. Don't you think so, Lady Tsunade?"
"Yes. This will do nicely. Thank you Karuizawa."
"No no. Please! It's my pleasure. Now if you'll excuse me I have to get back to my work."
The head doctor of the hospital smiled at everyone and left the room.
Daichi looked around the room. 'A private room just for my training? Tsunade must have some serious pull here. He knew about Shizune as well. So this must be where she trained too…'
"So what do I start with?" Daichi was excited.
"Before I begin you on medical ninjutsu, you need training in healing and handling wounds and injuries without the use of chakra. This is basic stuff that the academy teaches you before you become a Genin." Tsunade replied.
Daichi recalled the information in the books and understood what she was talking about. "You're talking about first aid and proper basic procedures."
The Senju nodded in agreement. "That's right. Many times out in the field, you'll run out of chakra due to different reasons. You can't stop treatment because of such a lame excuse... And treating the different patients here will also give you some experience before we get into the real gritty part. You may have learned everything in those books but knowledge and experience are two different things."
"I see… Alright I'm ready. Let's do this."
"Shizune will handle things from here. Listen to her and do as she says." With those words, Tsunade went to the other side of the room and sat near the small open window.
At that moment Daichi recalled the crucial information about the woman. 'Right! She's afraid of blood. She has hemophobia.'
Daichi just nodded and didn't say anything. He saw Shizune getting ready and mentally prepared himself.
'Let's do this.'
