Chapter 297: Medical Forbidden Jutsu and School Opening Day

"Kitazawa."

Yakushi Nono glanced at the clock on the wall and asked, "Shizune is probably delayed by something; do Itachi need me to take Itachi to perform surgery?"

"As long as it doesn't affect your work."

Kitazawa came back to his senses, thought about it, and said.

He had already mastered the Chakra Scalpel long ago.

Whether it was Shizune or Yakushi Nono, for him, the effect was the same.

"With your current strength, even without me and Shizune, Itachi could finish the surgery."

Yakushi Nono shook her head and said.

"How is it that exaggerated?"

Kitazawa said very modestly, "I still have a long way to go before I reach Itachi."

"It's not exaggerated."

Yakushi Nono smiled gently and said, "After Itachi learned the Chakra Scalpel, Itachi were already qualified to become a medical ninja jonin."

It wasn't that the standard for medical ninja wasn't high; on the contrary, it was too high.

Because medical ninjutsu was very difficult to learn, the number of medical ninja was extremely small.

A long time ago, the Hidden Leaf Village followed Tsunade's suggestion to fix one medical ninja in each ninja squad.

But even in the generation of Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha, where talents emerged in large numbers, they couldn't meet this condition.

In the Konoha 12, four teams, the only proper medical ninja was Sakura Haruno.

This was the case for medical ninja genin, let alone medical ninja jonin.

The number of medical ninja jonin in the entire Hidden Leaf Village could be counted on one hand.

"My accumulation is not enough."

Kitazawa waited for a few seconds, and seeing no new mission triggered, he said, "We'll see in a while."

"That's fine."

Yakushi Nono nodded slightly and said, "Let's go, we're going to the operating room."

The two left the office and came to an operating room.

"Today's patient suffered internal organ damage in a battle with a taijutsu ninja and needs surgery."

Yakushi Nono said as she pushed open the door to the operating room.

A middle-aged man was lying on the operating table, already in a coma.

The external wounds on his body had been treated urgently, and the smell of blood and medicine drifted around.

"Kitazawa, Itachi will be the lead surgeon for this surgery."

Yakushi Nono thought for a moment and said.

"Me?"

Kitazawa couldn't help but be stunned.

"Try it."

Yakushi Nono said softly, "Once Itachi are proficient, Itachi can completely hang a position at the Konoha Hospital."

"So that was Senior Nono's purpose."

Kitazawa understood and said with a smile.

But another aspect also showed the scarcity of medical ninja.

"It's rare to encounter a medical ninjutsu genius; if we miss it, it's the Konoha Hospital's loss."

Yakushi Nono had one more thing she didn't say.

If Kitazawa had problems with the surgery, Shizune and Tsunade behind him would definitely come forward to solve it.

And that patient would surely be very happy, after all, a surgery could see the most excellent medical ninja in the ninja world.

No matter how troublesome the illness or how heavy the injury, there was a chance of healing in Tsunade's hands.

Kitazawa was just about to speak when four lines of text suddenly appeared before his eyes.

【A genius should make a name for himself, and as a medical ninja, he should be well-known in the Hidden Leaf Village.】

【Current Mission: Successfully complete nine high-difficulty surgeries as the lead medical ninja.】

【Mission Reward: Medical Forbidden Jutsu: Body Regeneration.】

【Do Itachi accept?】

Kitazawa couldn't help but widen his eyes.

This mission reward was beyond his expectations.

Forbidden jutsu, although not necessarily S-rank, all had unique effects without exception.
