Following the surprise attack force back to the Hidden Mist camp, Qi Shuang and the others immediately carried the unconscious Captain Ao into the medical tent.
After carefully examining him, an elderly medical ninja solemnly told them, "Your captain was caught in an explosion at close range. Besides the burns on the surface, his internal organs also suffered severe trauma."
"Although he won't die for now, he'll probably be bedridden for half a month!"
Hearing that their captain was out of danger, Qi Shuang and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, the medical ninja shook his head again, causing the three of them to tense up.
He infused his hands with chakra and began casting Healing Technique to ease Ao's injuries as he slowly said, "Neither the burns on his body nor the severe damage to his internal organs is particularly difficult to treat."
"The real problem lies with his eyes!"
"What happened to the captain's eyes?" Mei Terumi asked nervously.
Because Ao had remained unconscious with his eyes tightly shut, she hadn't noticed anything unusual about the squad leader's eyes.
Glancing at the unconscious patient, the medical ninja sighed. "Perhaps the explosion was too sudden, and the distance was too close. He didn't even have a chance to close his eyes. Both eyes suffered burns of varying severity."
"His left eye is fine. The injury isn't serious, and it should be treatable. But as for his right eye... that's hard to say."
"There's a very high chance he'll lose his sight!"
"How high?" Qi Shuang asked solemnly.
"Ninety percent!" the medical ninja replied without looking up.
At the end of his sentence, he seemed to remember something and added, "Perhaps Tsunade can treat this kind of injury!"
"That's no different from saying nothing!" Zabuza said
