Chapter 44 Request

According to the choice, to move on to the next step of cultivation?

After listening to Kakashi's narration, to be honest, Sakura didn't think about these things, but because she had no way out, she didn't know which direction she was going to go next.

If you say that you were awakened at the beginning, you just had an attitude close to Sasuke, and with the encouragement of your father, you applied for the profession of a medical ninja.

But after becoming a real medical ninja, although you will also enjoy good treatment in the team, this profession ...... It's also more 'waste' than I imagined.

It's not because of her low medical ability, on the contrary, in the medical field, Sakura thinks that she has done well enough among her peers, but ...... After becoming a medical ninja, she didn't know how to cut into the battlefield.

Many times she could only watch Sasuke and Naruto fight, and her task was only to take care of the logistics and provide medical support if they were injured.

However, what if the battle is fierce and she can't even cut into the battlefield?

At that time, could his medical ninjutsu really help others in time?

The answer is no.

Because she became a medical ninja, she cut off her path to becoming stronger with her own hands, physical arts and ninjutsu, as well as illusions, which are not proficient, but can only be said to be barely passable.

And this level,In many cases, she can't keep up with the rhythm of Sasuke and Naruto's fighting.,So that her medical ninjutsu will become useless.。。

Therefore, the choice that Kakashi threw out at this time undoubtedly gave her hope for another path.

So that she can better perform her duties as a medical ninja.

Therefore, the seemingly dilemma of continuing to shine in the field of medical ninjas, or squeezing out a certain amount of time, while improving one's survival and combat abilities while being a medical ninja, Sakura didn't think about it for too long, so he answered Kakashi directly:

"Kakashi-sensei, please teach me how to fight!"

Sakura bent down earnestly and asked Kakashi to get up.

She didn't want to be thrown to the back of the line.

As Sasuke and Naruto grew stronger, her assistance in combat became more and more marginalized.

If she was in a normal squad, she could comfort herself that she had done well enough that there was no need to force herself to perform well in battle.

But this kind of self-consolation, it can't be practiced in this team.

"No need to do that, Sakura-chan, that's what you should do as a mentor. Since he joined my team, he was not only my subordinate, but also a student that I was proud of. You've done a pretty good job. ”

Kakashi was serious about this.

Sasuke and Naruto are very special beings in this Shinobi.

It's so special that even the Hokage is willing to open the door for them.

In order to let Naruto grow, he did not hesitate to send the elite in the shadows to escort him in the country of waves, even the Hokage's son Sarutobi Asma did not enjoy this kind of high-quality treatment when he was young.

Needless to say, since a few years ago, the head of the dark department has taken time out of his busy schedule to personally polish the foundation for him, and teach him the original advanced thunder ninjutsu.

These are resources that the average person can't enjoy.

On the contrary, Sakura has been able to become a medical ninja by her own efforts, and has surpassed many people.

If he hadn't come to his own team, the other party would be in the medical department now, and with his excellent medical ninja talents, he would probably be in the mix. There is no need to follow two 'monsters' all day long, live in fear, and be hit.

Kakashi felt that if he didn't promote the other party, Sakura would have to quit the team depressed sooner or later.

"Yes."

"Now that you've made your choice, then, wait quietly for my news. The day after tomorrow at six o'clock in the morning, you come here, and I will give you an answer here. ”

Kakashi thought for a moment and asked Sakura to come to the forest at six o'clock the morning after tomorrow to meet.

"I see, Kakashi-sensei...... Also, sorry for your help. ”

Sakura didn't know what Kakashi was going to do, but she thought that she might have to work for her.

"It's okay, there's a medical ninja on the team, and a lot of the time it's reassuring to me. Age of War...... Forget it, it's not the time to talk to you about these things. In short, you have to understand that neither Naruto nor Sasuke meant to exclude you, and I think Sasuke said the same thing to you. ”

Kakashi glanced at Sakura.

Sakura nodded and replied, "Sasuke said that I was the last safeguard in the team, and when he, Kakashi-sensei, and Naruto, were in danger of death, I was the most reliable presence in the team. I've reviewed myself since then, but I don't know how to fight a medical ninja......"

Is it poisonous?

Although she can prepare poison and detoxify, Sakura is not good at poisoning.

In Sakura's inherent impression, the medical ninja is a symbol of weakness, and fighting and the medical ninja are basically two unrelated parallel lines.

Sasuke's words, although they are ugly, are true. He just wants you to be a little more confident and do your job well and not focus on anything other than that...... I think you also understand that Sasuke has an extremely heavy mission on his back, and he is the only one left in the Uchiha clan of Konoha. This is an obsession that he can't get rid of in his heart. ”

Kakashi said slowly.

At the mention of the Uchiha clan, Sakura was silent for a while.

As a Konoha ninja, Sakura naturally knows the glory of this family in Konoha in the past.

Perhaps, I've never taken the initiative to learn anything about Sasuke-kun. Sakura felt a little ashamed in her heart.

The family was wiped out, and Sakura couldn't feel the pain and despair of being left alone.

seems to be cold on the outside, but the heart is already full of holes.

And trying to interfere with the other person's actions with such a thing as love is too ridiculous and naΓ―ve.

"Don't worry too much, Sasuke he'll be fine, I can guarantee that. After he completes his family's mission, let's get to know the new Sasuke. ”

Kakashi seemed to sense Sakura's intentions, and touched Sakura's head, his tone softened.

"Well, I will, Kakashi-sensei."

Sakura was relieved.

With Kakashi here, Sasuke will definitely be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish, and then at that time, he must put his mind ......

"Okay, go back, if you don't go back, Naruto's stinky boy will complain about me taking the money again. You just have to wait for my news for the next two days. ”

Kakashi scratched his head helplessly.

β—Ž

"Medical ninja...... What a hassle. ”

At eight o'clock in the evening, Kakashi sat alone in his study at home, with various scrolls and stacks of documents in an orderly manner on his workbench.

At the top of this is a personal information sheet.

There is a photo of a girl with long pink hair on the top, and below is a list of the other party's ninja information.

Sakura Haruno.

He is also one of the members of the seventh team he led.

The only medical ninja on the team.

To tell the truth, Kakashi doesn't know much about the medical ninja industry.

Although he has seven attribute chakras, he can theoretically learn all ninjutsu, illusion, body art, and secret arts except for the blood inheritance limit, but the cultivation of sword skills and thunder ninjutsu alone has already taken up most of his time, and he has no time to learn things in the rest of the fields at all.

Therefore, for medical ninjutsu, it is only slightly the same as medical theory, and I know simple medicine.

However, Kakashi is well aware of the strategic value of this profession.

In the Third Ninja World War, Konoha also benefited from the importance of the cultivation of medical ninjas, so that the ninja sacrifice rate in the village was much lower than that of the rest of the ninja villages.

Nowadays, all countries have begun to pay attention to the training of medical ninjas, and even so, medical ninjas are still in short supply, which shows how much attention is paid to the training of medical ninjas by the high-level leaders of each village.

Placing a medical ninja in each squad to reduce the mission sacrifice rate and increase the mission completion rate is an idea put forward by Tsunade, one of the three ninjas of Konoha during the Second Ninja War.

However, twenty or thirty years have passed, and this idea has never been realized by any country or ninja village.

Even the newly powerful country of ghosts can't do this.

Because it's so hard.

It's not just a matter of resources and money, medical ninja is not a profession that ordinary people can hold in the first place.

Precise chakra control ability, remediating far more professional knowledge than a combat ninja, and being more calm and composed than a combat ninja, otherwise it will delay the best time to heal.

The existence of medical ninjas, linked to the most precious lives of ninjas, is enough to prove the importance of this industry and the difficulty of training.

On top of that, it is even more difficult to cultivate the combat ability of a medical ninja.

However, there is no end to it.

The weakness of medical ninjas is an inherent perception of ninjas.

But there are also unconventional medical ninjas who break this preconceived notion.

Tsunade in the Konoha Three Shinobi.

Chiba Shiraishi, the military leader of the country of demons.

It's all ninjas who break this convention.

While they are qualified as excellent medical ninjas, they also have the combat power of super first-line ninjas.

It can be seen that the inherent perception that medical ninjas are weak can be broken.

Could Sakura possibly break this preconceived notion?

Kakashi didn't know.

He's not a medical ninja and can't be predicted.

Because whether it is Tsunade or Shiraishi, their growth trajectory, even if it is displayed as it is, the rest of the people will not be able to replicate their achievements.

Everyone will break the shackles attached to their bodies according to their own cognition, and everyone's obsessions are all kinds of reasons to become stronger, and all Kakashi can do is to do his duty as a guide to Shinobi as much as possible, and use his best efforts to help Sakura grow up.

So, the question is, which one to choose?

Breaking the inherent cognition, it has a representative nature, and there are only two medical ninjas who are still alive in the world.

In addition, although there are ninjas who have both strength and medical ability, they are much inferior to the above two. As a back-end option, it's good.

Kakashi thought about it, and he didn't know which one to start with.

Among them, there is no doubt that Shiraishi's ability is more versatile and comprehensive, and the split soul clones can cope with all kinds of complex environments.

Whether it is land, the sky, or the sea, it can be fought.

But there are more things to prepare, and first of all, you have to learn the improved S-class forbidden magic spiritualization technique.

The resources invested after that are the biggest problem.

According to Shiraishi's explanation to him, the other party's cultivation resources at that time, including research funds, were all provided by the Uchiha clan.

With the support of such a wealthy family, there is naturally no need to worry about cultivation resources.

Alas, the importance of soft rice.

If it were Sakura-chan, Kakashi would not find a second wealthy ninja clan as generous as the Uchiha clan.

And on the Hokage's side, it is impossible to provide such a huge amount of cultivation resources for individuals.

Coupled with Baishi's improved version of the Spiritualization Technique, it will involve the mutation and division of the soul later, which is a long cultivation process. Be prepared for a waiting period of 10 years or more.

So, even though he could get an improved version of the Spiritualization Jutsu from Shiraishi, Kakashi thought about it and put Shiraishi on the secondary option.

Shiraishi's growth is inseparable from medical ninjutsu and soul secret arts, but it is even more inseparable from the support of the wealthy Uchiha behind it. In a practical sense, the help provided by the latter may be greater than that of the former.

Well, there is only one choice.

Tsunade, one of the three ninjas.

The opponent's combat ability is derived from a technique collectively known as 'Strange Power'.

It is said to be the result of improvement based on the secret techniques of the Senju clan.

But since it's not the Blood Inheritance Limit, there's a possibility of replication.

If it doesn't work anymore, it's not impossible to get a weakened version of 'strange power'.

At least for Sakura at this stage, even a weakened version of 'strange power' is enough to use.

Relatively speaking, taking the path of Tsunade, although it is not possible to deal with various battle situations by splitting the clone. But the upside is that it's relatively simple to cultivate.

It doesn't take too long, as long as you can pass the minimum standard test, you can get started quickly, and you can improve your strength in a short time...... The most important thing is that the consumption of resources is not as terrifying as that of Shiraishi.

You don't need to find a backer with strong funds, you can grow up by your own efforts.

At least, Kakashi felt that he could barely afford to cultivate Sakura-chan who could barely afford to cultivate 'strange powers' by using the power of the Dark Minister.

"Then let's do it, start with the strange power......

The decision was made, and all that was left was to apply to the superiors.

β—Ž

Deciding to arrange Sakura on the path of cultivating 'strange powers', Kakashi headed towards the Hokage building at nine o'clock the next morning to discuss the matter with the three generations of Hokage.

When I arrived at the Hokage's office, I saw the three generations of Hokage Hitoshi, sitting there working, with a cigarette stick that lit tobacco next to him, causing a faint smell of tobacco to fill the office in the early morning.

Kakashi wasn't too disgusted with ninja smoking, but he also knew that smoking was not a good habit for ninjas, even if it wasn't a ban.

"Hokage-sama, good morning."

Kakashi greeted Hizashi as soon as he arrived.

"It's Kakashi, did you come over so early today to apply for a mission?"

Seeing Kakashi come over so early today, Hinata was a little surprised.

Compared with the rest of the group, the seventh class has completed enough D-level tasks, so for the task management of the seventh class, the day slash will not hold on tightly.

In the morning, he doesn't usually assign D-class missions to Class 7, and after noon, he assigns D-class missions to Class 7.

The rest of the time, let Kakashi lead them to cultivate.

In Hizaki's opinion, Naruto and Sasuke have accumulated enough experience in the field of D-class missions.

After a while, you can continue to let the seventh class perform C-level tasks to increase your knowledge.

If it had been the previous year, the sun might not have done so.

Because it's June now, July is the time for the Zhongnin exam.

But this year's situation is different, this year, several major congresses jointly held the middle ninja exam, and the time was also postponed to mid-October, so that the ninjas in each village have more time to prepare.

There are still more than four months of preparation time until the middle of October, so there is no need to rush so much.

"Actually, I didn't come so early for the mission. That, how do you say that......"

Kakashi scratched his head, looking like he wanted to say something.

"You don't have to see me like that, just tell me something. Your request, as the Hokage, will also be seriously considered. ”

Seeing Kakashi so slurred, Hinata also smiled rarely, picked up the cigarette stick and took a puff of cigarette, letting Kakashi explain his intention directly.

"Yes, then I'll be straight to the point, Hokage-sama. Actually, here's the thing, I have some new opinions about the Sakura Haruno in the team......"

Kakashi explained Sakura's situation in a short and direct way in front of Hinaki.

After hearing this, Hizashi nodded, and understood what Kakashi meant.

To put it simply, Sakura Haruno, the only medical ninja in the seventh class, lost a certain amount of self-confidence as a ninja in the team because of her self-conscious lack of strength, which is not conducive to psychological growth.

Kakashi, who is the guide to the shinobi, wants to help the other party.

And the easiest and most effective way to help the other party is to improve her strength as a medical ninja.

"Generally speaking, the village doesn't value the strength of medical ninjas. The rating of medical ninjas has gradually improved, and the promotion system is slightly different from that of regular ninjas. ”

Hizai said.

In the past, because of the lack of attention to this aspect, Konoha did not formulate detailed guidelines for the promotion of medical ninjas.

Including the administrative system of medical ninjas, it is still evaluated according to the level of lower ninja, middle ninja, and upper ninja.

But this is actually a very crude and rudimentary rating system.

Because medical ninjas are not good at fighting, lower ninja, middle ninja, and upper ninja, although they are administrative titles, but many times, they will be linked to strength.

The use of lower ninja, middle ninja, and upper ninja in the administrative rating of medical ninja is actually a confused assessment, and it is also very lax.

Therefore, after a high-level meeting, the medical industry was reformed.

Let the medical ninjas themselves use a promotion system, and the level is evaluated not based on strength, but on the level of mastery of medical ninjutsu.

And this system, not only Konoha, but also other ninja villages are also applying. Even the country of ghosts is also using this new system. Not only is it more convenient to manage medical ninjas, but it also allows medical ninjas with excellent medical abilities not to be reused because of their strength.

"Yes, I've heard a little bit about it, too."

Kakashi nodded.

"That's good. But since Kakashi you asked this question, I also thought about it carefully, maybe it was because I didn't think it through, after all...... The seventh class is a special squad. ”

The promotion template used is different, and the Japanese slash will not be so harsh as to evaluate a medical ninja and use the rating method of a combat ninja.

But now that I think about it, since Kakashi made such a suggestion, it means that he, as the Hokage, has not considered things comprehensively.

As he said, Class 7 is a special group, the orphan of the Uchiha clan, the Nine-Tails Pillar Force, and cannot be looked at with inherent thinking.

Then, when it comes to the growth model of Haruno Sakura, it is natural to jump out of the original framework and think newly.

"As you say, that's why I'm distressed. Sakura Haruno is an excellent ninja, and I hope Hokage-sama will focus on cultivating it. If you can, just transfer my part of the contribution to Sakura Haruno. ”

Kakashi nodded earnestly.

In terms of rules, before Sakura Haruno did not contribute, even the Hokage could not overstep his authority for personal gain.

Therefore, Kakashi intends to erase his contribution and transfer it to Sakura Haruno in exchange for the resource tilt of his superiors.

Hinata looked at Kakashi for a moment, and after a brief consideration, said, "No need, it's just my personal investment, let Kakashi do this, I don't think the other party's growth will disappoint me." The cultivation scroll of the Strange Power Technique, I will have someone hand it over to you later, as for whether Sakura Haruno can learn it, it depends on her comprehension ability. However, I also hope that Kakashi will understand that it is difficult to achieve anything in the Strange Power Jutsu by relying on personal comprehension alone, except for Tsunade himself. ”

This is not a lie.

Tsunade's strange power technique is indeed well documented in Konoha's library.

But that thing, like Kakashi's Raidan Rachel, was an original technique unique to the branding sorcerer.

It's not that Hinata hasn't thought about letting Konoha's medical ninja learn the magic technique to increase the probability of survival with the medical ninja...... As you can imagine, they all failed.

Theory can be learned by all medical ninjas, but after all, it is only a theoretical thing, and there is no way to put it into practice.

The irreproducibility of talent has become a difficulty in learning.

Even ninjas who are born in the ninja clan of the secret arts, not everyone can learn the secret arts.

The same is true for the Blood Inheritance Limit. In the Uchiha clan, there are also many clansmen who can't open their eyes.

"Yes, if I really can't, I'll find another way."

Kakashi nodded earnestly.

If Tsunade can't go down this path, then he can only start with Shiraishi.

With his contribution to the country of ghosts, I believe that the other party will not be stingy with this help.

What's more, cultivating Sakura, in a sense, is not an enemy. How can cultivating the future talents of the country of ghosts be considered a rival?
