I immediately dropped the new organ into its place and had it growing in a couple minutes. Chifuyu carefully began splicing the edges of the wound with my chakra thread. It took about four minutes, and now Akamichi Yano will definitely live, and even remain a shinobi, with proper care in the next six months and regular checkups with a good iryo-nin. I sealed the removed liver in a scroll and made a note of it with the pencil I always carry with me.
- Excellent work, Chifuyu-chan," I praised my assistant when the organ bank was sealed again.
- It's nothing complicated, sensei," the kunoichi waved away, stretching her shoulders, "how many of these operations we've done in the last few months, so now it's just routine.
I let the Uchiha in only when I was sure she'd learned the bare minimum and wouldn't do more damage with her efforts. Since then, a little over two and a half months had passed and dozens of shinobi had passed through her delicate hands, with my supervision and assistance most of the time.
Chifuyu wasn't a real iryo-nin without a theoretical base, but she'd pass the field medic test with flying colors. In addition, I taught her a little to improve her body for greater survivability and even put a healing seal, so as not to lose such a valuable assistant - the first months I literally sewed up, and then the contingent of the camp began to gradually increase and the amount of work, respectively, too, albeit the complexity and lower.
- By the way, where are those two fools? - The Uchiha asked, noting the absence of a couple more helpers.
Since the hospital also needed brute force, I hired two guys who had damaged their keirakukei and couldn't use chakra properly in the near future. In exchange for quality restoration, of course, not out of the goodness of my heart. It's good for them, and it's good for me to be able to practice for the next degree of iryo-nin.
- While you're resting today, they've taken over the second and third shifts.
- Good, then I'll leave everything to you," I yawned, waved to my assistant and headed for the exit of the infirmary.
- Ano...
- М?
Turning to the Uchiha, I raised an eyebrow questioningly, but following her gaze, I chuckled. Alright, let's help the little one.
- Okay, sickies, if any of you decide to run away while I'm not around, don't even think about it! I'll find you and break your arms and legs, so you don't have to go anywhere! You know me. Do you understand?!
Having waited for a friendly "hey" from the big-aged ra***devils that were conscious, I left the infirmary with a feeling of deep satisfaction and having got out into the street, wandered towards my tent. What kind of people, eh? And most of them are not for the first or even the second time, but they all want to leave as soon as they become somewhat able to move on their own two feet. It's a hassle to deal with such patients. I have to deal with Tsume right now... That's a pain in the ass.
***
As much as I didn't want to go back to my room and deal with the girl's feelings, there was nothing I could do about it. You fucked her, you deal with it. I shouldn't have been thinking with the wrong head under the influence of alcohol last night. To be honest, when Inuzuka frowns, growls, and shows her fangs, she's really scary with her animal eyes. And now, sober and without the distorting effect on my mind, I can at least admit to myself that I would be afraid to take her to bed...
Well, not afraid, because I'm not even twice as strong as my partner, so she wouldn't hurt me if she wanted to, but I wouldn't dare. Tsume was the kind of woman who was called a boy-babe and no other way. Even though she was only fourteen now (or was it fifteen already? She's only fourteen now (or is it fifteen already? With this shitty war, you forget about everything!), but if you remember the source material, she was the leader of the clan, and her husband even ran away from her to become a nuke-nin. And the rudiments of that character can be seen now.
