Bab 107: 106- Close Call

'As I expected, it doesn't work. I guess this fully confirms the nature of my Chakra Seinou. This means that I really need to learn Medical Ninjutsu.'

"What do you mean it's not working?" Fujioka inquired.

"I'm trying to heal his Eye using medical ninjutsu, but it is not working," Toda reiterated, with a look of confusion etched on his face.

"Are you sure you are doing everything correctly?" Tobe asked.

"Yes, Tobe I am doing everything correctly. You should know how good my medical ninjutsu is since it has mostly been used on you."

'Should I just tell them, or should I just act confused? Telling half-truths would be better, but Daichi and Fugaku already know about it, so it is already an open secret. I can just shallowly tell them about the ability, while I hide some of its perks like Genjutsu Immunity.' 

"I guess that was to be expected," Renjiro said.

"Why is it to be expected?" Tobe inquired.

"I have an ability, well more of a condition, where my body cleanses all foreign substances entering it, like Chakra and poisons. I call it an ability because it grants me poison immunity, and a condition because I was warned that Medical Ninjutsu from other people might not work on me." Renjiro explained.

Fujioka turned and faced Renjiro, the chunin's explanation of his condition, or ability as he termed it, piqued his interest. He asked,

"So you are sure that you have immunity against poisons?" 

"That I am not sure as I only tested it against poisons available in Konoha. I will have to come across a Suna Puppet master dealing with poisons to fully know whether the immunity is a full one or a partial one." Renjiro stated.

"If it is about poisons, then I have a summon who could help-" Toda began before he was interrupted by his elder brother.

"Don't mind him, Renjiro. He has always been waiting to test his summon ever since he got it. But that ability, or condition as you said, seems peculiar. If it can cleanse all foreign chakra that enters your body, then can it also give you immunity against Genjutsus?"

'Well, that was quick. How should I answer?'

While Renjiro was thinking of ways to skirt out of that question, Fujioka said, "That's enough, Tobe. Everyone is allowed to keep some information about their abilities private. You all know how much private information is powerful enough to end battles before they even begin."

'That's the least I can do, I was the one who pushed for this mission which resulted in him losing his eye. While that wasn't much of a loss if Renjiro doesn't quickly learn basic medical ninjutsu, then it will become a permanent loss. Let's just hope it doesn't come to that.' Fujioka thought.

After receiving a knowing glance from his squad leader, Tobe and Toda relented as Renjiro released a sigh of relief. He was glad that he did not have to answer that.

"But If you can't be healed, how do we help you, because your Injury can cost us if enemies attack the village again," Fujioka said.

"Renjiro is already injured, so it is best for us to return back to the village," Toda suggested.

Fujioka shook his head as he said, "We can't do that, if it was normal rogue shinobi attacking Ishigakure, then we would have completed the mission. But considering the Kurogane clan was involved, we can't just let this be."

"Then we can stay while Renjiro goes back to the village," Tobe suggested.

'I will be going back to the village alone? That's great! It will be the first time since I arrived in this world that I will be left unsupervised outside of Konoha. I can even fast-track some of my plans like creating hideouts outside of the villages. I can even use my eye loss as an excuse to arrive later than expected.'

While Renjiro was still thinking of his future plans, Fujioka was still pondering about Tobe's suggestion. As a first rank officer, Tobe was basically Fujioka's right-hand man.

"Did any of you manage to get any information about this operation from the people who you fought against?" Fujioka suddenly inquired.

"The only thing that I know is that they were from the Kurogane clan and one of the chunins that I fought mentioned that their mission was to cause as much harm to the village and then leave," Renjiro stated.

"Can I have their bodies?" Fujioka asked.

'Why does he want their bodies?'

"Yes you can, Fujioka-sama"

Renjiro wondered as he took the scrolls that contained the bodies of the seven Kurogane chunins he fought at and handed them to his squad leader.

Once Fujioka got the scrolls he quickly retrieved the seven bodies, arranging them in a particular order in front of everybody. After doing so, Fujioka closed his eyes, knelt and made a hand sign.

"Hey, Toda! What is Fujioka-sama doing." Renjiro tugged Toda's cloth and asked in a low voice.

"You don't know?" Toda replied with a confused expression. It was only after he realized that they had had few missions since Renjiro joined the squad that he replied,

"He is reading their memories." Hearing that Renjiro instinctively panicked.

'Reading their memories? I should have considered that the Uchiha already copied some techniques from other clans of Konoha. I just hope he doesn't figure out that there is a missing Jounin body.' Renjiro hoped.

After a few minutes went by, Fujioka got up to his feet from his position and stored the bodies back.

"All they knew was that this was a mission assigned to the clan. I guess we will need to also study the memories of the jounins to get more details" Fujioka stated while stroking his chin.

'Whoo!' Renjiro sighed internally.

'That was a close call, thank the heavens that he chose to read the memories of one of the chunins Ohashi knocked out'

"Then it means that the request either came from Iwa or Suna, but you never know with the Kurogane clan then only offer their services to the highest bidder, so it could even be another power that put them up to this," Tobe added.

"And Knowing them, once they realize that they have lost some of their shinobi, they will attack again," Fujioka Agreed.

"Then we can request for reinforcements from the village," Renjiro added.

Creasing his brows, Fujioka said, "Yes, we need to do so. Toda will leave with Renjiro and head towards the village and request for reinforcements while Tobe and I remain back to help Ishigakure for as long as possible before the reinforcement arrives." 

While Fujioka was also aware of the politics involved with the administrative duties of the village, especially when it came to the police force and Village council, he was sure They would see the bigger picture and promptly send reinforcements their way.

'Well, there goes the opportunity I had. I hope that I do get time to build those hideouts before the next war. That would be a key component for my next plans.' Renjiro thought.

Turning to one of the second rank officers in his squad, Fujioka remarked, "I am sure I can trust you Toda to pass on my request to everyone back on base, right?"

"Best believe it! I will not let you down Fujioka-sama!" Toda said with a low bow.

Impressed, Fujioka wanted to say something before Konno Tetsuo's arrival attracted everyone's attention.

Bab 108: 107-Becoming Danzo

"Once Again, thank you, Fujioka," Konno Tetsuo thanked the Konoha Police Force squad leader for their help against their assailants.

Although more damage was done to the village this time to the village, there were fewer casualties for both the shinobi present and Ishigakure civilians.

This was largely due to the fact that Fujioka and his squad shouldered the burden of going against the enemy shinobis. This, in turn, enabled Ishigakure shinobi to focus on evacuating their civilians to safety.

"I already told you Tetsuo, you don't need to thank us because it was our duty. Besides, you already said that this was their most devasting attack, so I am sure the Kurogane clan is going to attack again. Especially since they lost some of their shinobi."

"Indeed. Fortunately, most of the civilians had already got out of the village due to the chain of constant attacks. The few who were remaining are already on their way to safety."

"So, the village will be abandoned?" Tobe asked perplexed.

"No, this was a directive from Lord Third," Fujioka began, "We have to prioritize the civilians. The village can be rebuilt, but if the civilians die, then there is no remedy for that."

'I am sure Lord Hokage already saw through this, but what are the intentions of Iwa and Suna? It is clear that one of them was behind this attack. We have only recently begun our period of peace after the last war, so are they doing all this? 

Do they want to begin another war? I surely hope that there won't ever be another war like the last two ones, we already lost too many comrades.' Fujioka sighed in regret.

Fujioka had been fortunate enough to survive the last shinobi war which was very devasting. He had first-hand experience with the effects of war both as a shinobi and also as a civilian since the first one happened when he was only a child, Fujioka craved peace more than anything in life.

He had recently gotten his second child, another boy, so Fujioka wanted to live long enough to even see the offspring of his offspring. However, Fujioka feared that if another war broke out, then his chances of surviving would be lower than before.

While it was true that being weak would only make you fodder and your survival chances would be minimal, the same was also true for those who were stronger than average.

Fujioka had been a chunin during the Second Shinobi War, which meant he was pretty much ner the middle of the food chain. This gave him this peculiar perspective of war.

Being strong meant that you would be expected to shoulder more responsibilities such as being put in riskier situations due to your high chances of making it alive. It also meant that enemy villages would also target you due to the same fact. It was literally a loose-loose situation.

This was the main reason why Fujioka's vigour in ascending the shinobi ranks dropped over the last few years with him only recently being promoted to the Jounin Rank. This did not, in any way, mean that Fujioka was not committed to his duties in the Konoha Police force.

While Fujioka, Tobe and Konno Testuo were discussing the current situation, Tobe and Renjiro were making their final for their journey back to the Village.

'While I knew Fujioka was strong since he was a bonified squad leader, defeating all these Jounins just puts him on a whole other level. Seven jounins who could use their transformations like Ohashi puts them a brush over the level of average Konoha Shinobi.'

'Judging from the marks on their body, he most probably used brute force on them and not genjutsu which was the safer route. It seems I still have a long way ahead of me because after experiencing Ohashi's improved speed and strength after his transformation, I don't think I would have survived without resorting to Genjutsu.'

"So how did you guys finish off the jounins you faced?" Renjiro inquired turning to Toda and initiating eye contact.

"Meh," Toda shrugged before continuing, "We were lucky that only one of the three jounins we faced used their transformation. He only did that after he witnessed his comrades dying. After exchanging attacks we quickly realised that he was vulnerable mentally and we changed our tactics to Genjutsu."

"While that helped end things sooner, I am still sure that Tobe and I would have still sorted out things even without using Genjutsu," Toda said with a wide smile covering his face.

'Welp, so basically the same as me. But I guess a win is still a win regardless of the circumstances surrounding it.' Renjiro surmised.

"Before I forget you should you this," Toda said as he reached over to the pouch on his waist where he retrieved a seal. Before Renjiro could even wonder what he would receive, Toda flicked his wrist and a roll of bandages appeared on his hand.

"What's this for?" Renjiro asked.

"It's for your head, you should wrap it around your head because your empty eye socket is getting annoying to look at."

Renjiro did not hesitate in doing so because he too was feeling weird walking around with an empty eye socket. It felt like walking around with an open zipper, but every time you look down to confirm, you find it closed. 

You could feel it open, but the fact was that it was closed. It was a really disconcerting feeling.

As Renjiro was keenly wrapping the bandage on his head and over his missing eye, he sensed, or rather felt a subtle shimmer in them. Spreading his senses, he realized that the bandages Toda handed to him were imbued with chakra.

Looking up to Toda for some explanation, the latter said, "They are chakra imbued with chakra to ensure that they continuously stimulate your cells and improve your healing. Though the improvement is far much lower than what basic medical ninjutsu can do, it still helps."

"Are you sure you want me to have this? It won't do much for me considering my condition," Renjiro remarked.

"Yeah, yeah, I know. But we are in the same squad, so it doesn't matter." 

Renjiro then continued wrapping the bandages on his head. After finishing up, a wild thought flashed across his mind.

'Bandages over my head and I still have a Sharigan. I guess I am slowly becoming Danzo.'

Fujioka then approached the two as they were talking, "I have already finished talking to the village chief, so you guys can head back to the village and request for reinforcements. Toda, I expect you to be back with the reinforcements as quickly as possible."

With the directives issued, the two did not linger and immediately set off towards Konoha. While Renjiro was not at his best, the duo took a shorter time to get back to the village than they did when their squad left Konoha for Ishigakure.

In as much as keen vision was mandatory for the body flicker technique, Renjiro still moved at his fastest speed as his remaining Sharingan made up for his lack of one since the Sharingan only improved the efficiency of the technique.

When they arrived at the village, it was already late in the afternoon as the sun was high up in the sky. The village was serene, but Toda and Renjiro could not waste more time due to the sensitive nature of their task.

Toda had suggested to Renjiro to go to the hospital and seek help for his eye, but the chuunin refused. He countered that it wouldn't really help and proposed that he join Toda in heading to the base.

They both informed their squad captain of the events that unfolded in Ishigakure and after the squad captain became aware of the current situation, he did not bother following the chain of command due to the urgency of the matter and quickly took the two second rank officers to Daichi's office.

Once they knocked and were allowed in, Renjiro was surprised to find his aunt present in the office talking to Daichi.
