Capítulo 122: Chapter 122: Reward?
"Oh! I forgot to tell you—I made a bet about you. If you had failed this test, I would have had to resign from this position," Mitsuru said, as if it were no big deal.
"Why would you do that?" Kaida asked, shocked after hearing that.
"What do you mean, 'why would you do that'? I knew you were going to pass, and the stakes were so good that I couldn't stop myself," Mitsuru said with a smile on her face.
"May I ask what you got after winning this bet?" Kaida asked, curious about what made Mitsuru bet her position.
"They have to do all of my paperwork for three months," Mitsuru said with a silly smile on her face.
"You think three months of paperwork is worth betting your position?" Kaida asked in bewilderment.
"Absolutely," Mitsuru replied without a second thought.
Kaida decided to leave this topic, to save his brain cells, and to change the subject, he asked, "When will I get my certificate?"
"Tomorrow. Your card has to be signed by Lord Third. It will take at least the full day before you get your general practitioner card," Mitsuru said.
"Lord Third has to do these types of things too?" Kaida asked, not understanding why Hiruzen had to handle such tasks.
"Normally, it would have been done by the head of the hospital, but since Tsunade-sama is not here and no new head is designated, Lord Third became responsible for these tasks. But since it's not a common occurrence, it doesn't matter," Mitsuru explained.
Kaida nodded his head, understanding the reason.
"Since you performed much better in the test than I expected, I'll allow you to ask for one thing—any jutsu, resources, etc.—and I will try to give it to you, if it is reasonable," Mitsuru said.
"Sensei, can I ask for time before I decide what I want?" Kaida asked.
"Okay, you can go back home for today. Use this time to think about the reward you want. By tomorrow, your card should arrive, so you can collect your card and tell me what you want," Mitsuru said.
The reason Kaida asked for time wasn't because he didn't know what he wanted, but because he didn't know how to explain the reason for his knowledge.
'Naruto and Sasuke had insane power-ups in the story, including Nine-Tails, Mangekyo Sharingan, Asura and Indra chakra, Sage Mode, and whatnot. But my least favorite character was still able to fight alongside them. Even though she wasn't at their level, just being strong enough to fight alongside them is a testament to her strength.
The only reason Sakura was able to do that was Mitotic Regeneration, the special jutsu Tsunade taught her. There's no way in hell I'm not going to learn that jutsu, but the problem is, I don't know how. But now that Sensei has given me such a good opportunity, I can't let it go to waste. First, though, I have to search the library to see if this jutsu is mentioned somewhere. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain how I know about it,' Kaida thought.
Kaida bowed his head and then left Mitsuru's office. Instead of going home, Kaida headed directly to the library.
Two Jonin-level ninjas were guarding the library. Kaida felt that he was scanned by them even before he reached the entrance.
'One of them must be a sensor-type ninja,' Kaida thought.
"Hello, Kaida. How was your test?" one of the guards asked.
"Fine, I luckily passed it," Kaida replied.
"Don't be too modest, you deserved that," another guard said.
"Thank you. Can I go inside? I have something I want to look for," Kaida said.
"You just passed the test. Don't you want to take some rest and celebrate with your family?" the same guard asked.
"I do, but there is something I must find first," Kaida said.
"Oh! What is it? Tell us, we may be able to help you," the guard offered.
"Thanks, but I don't think that will be necessary. Sensei asked me if I wanted to learn any particular jutsu, so I'm planning to look for a suitable one in the library," Kaida said.
"Okay then, go ahead," the guard said and opened the gate of the library.
Kaida went directly to the librarian and said, "Good morning, ma'am. How are you?"
"Good morning, Kaida. I'm fine. How was your test?" she asked.
"You also know about that?" Kaida asked, not expecting it.
"Do you think I don't know anything other than the books in the library?" she replied mockingly.
"Of course not. I was able to pass the test, ma'am," Kaida replied, answering both of her questions.
"Congratulations, then. You are now a general practitioner—and at the age of nine! That's an achievement to be proud of," she said with a smile.
"Thank you, ma'am. But I have a favor to ask," Kaida said.
"What is it?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I'm searching for a jutsu to ask for as a reward, but I don't have much time. So, can I use shadow clones to read some of the books?" Kaida asked sincerely.
"No. You know this is not allowed. The library isn't very big, and if people started using shadow clones to read here, it would become too crowded. I told you this on the first day," she replied sternly.
"I know, but please take a look around. There aren't many people here at this time. Can't you make an exception just this once? Please," Kaida said, using puppy eyes. Kaida knew that even though the librarian appeared strict, she was soft-hearted.
"Okay, but just for today. Don't make this a habit," she said, sighing.
"Thank you, ma'am! You're the best!" Kaida said, then ran toward the book section.
The librarian just shook her head and went back to reading the book she was holding.
Kaida went to a quiet corner in the library and started making shadow clones. He made around 50 clones. Even though the librarian had said the library wasn't big, it still contained thousands of books.
It was impossible to read them all in months, let alone a day, but since his focus was on finding something about Mitotic Regeneration, the search range was quite narrowed down.
All 50 of his shadow clones went to different sections to search for the book. Kaida himself went to the section that contained details about various medical ninjas' discoveries.
Though most of the books there detailed various diseases or difficult injuries, occasionally they contained hints about particular jutsu those medical ninjas used to treat such cases.
Kaida activated his Sharingan and started skimming through many books. His main goal was to find any mention of Mitotic Regeneration or any jutsu Tsunade had used.
After searching through various books for the whole afternoon, Kaida was starting to lose hope. He and his clones had read through nearly a thousand books but still hadn't found anything about Mitotic Regeneration.
Some clones did find books written by Tsunade herself, but she never mentioned Mitotic Regeneration in any of them. Kaida was starting to lose hope when one of his clones approached him with a book. After giving the book to Kaida, the clone dispersed.
Because of this, Kaida and the rest of his clones received the memory of that clone.
