Perfect Grade Surgery

After dinner, Hanfu urged his little brother to focus on his homework before heading to the hospital with Keiko.

Once Hanfu left, Hayate couldn't control himself. He ran to the backyard and picked up his wooden sword, but after swinging it for less than half an hour, he remembered the term his brother had used.

Aiming too high.

That's right. He hadn't even become a ninja yet, nor had he mastered the Three Body Technique, yet he was already dreaming of inheriting the Konoha-Style Kenjutsu. It really was aiming too high.

Reluctantly, Hayate put down the wooden sword and headed back inside to write his reflection, looking back every few steps.

Meanwhile, Hanfu followed Keiko to Konoha Hospital once again.

Although it was already dark, Konoha Hospital was brightly lit, and the busy figures of medical staff could be seen moving between the various wards.

"Feng-chan, don't wander off, okay?" Keiko instructed.

"I know."

After entering the hospital, Hanfu looked around, but he didn't see any signs of any important figures arriving.

Did Shennong really come?

While Hanfu was wondering, he followed Keiko up to the third floor and arrived outside a room with a sign that read Experimental Operating Room.

"Doctor Shennong is inside. Remember not to speak once we go in, understand?" Keiko instructed again.

Hanfu felt a little excited. "I understand."

The two pushed the door open, and Hanfu immediately heard various exclamations.

"Sugoi! As expected of Doctor Shennong, to be able to complete the hemostasis and suturing so quickly!"

"Sou desu ne~ Doctor Shennong's medical skills are already better than those of the average medical ninja!"

Amidst the chorus of praise, the bearded Shennong spoke with a beaming smile.

"Everyone, surgery is a doctor's most basic skill. If you wish to learn, I can pass on all my years of surgical experience to you."

"Really? Thank you so much, Doctor Shennong!"

"Doctor Shennong is truly so noble!"

Shennong's selflessness drew another round of praise.

Hanfu stood behind Keiko and looked up. He saw an operating table in the room with an anesthetized man lying on it. The man had a ten-centimeter knife wound on his right arm, but it had already been sutured. It appeared that Shennong had performed the surgery, and judging by the reactions of those around him, the surgery had been performed perfectly.

Hanfu looked at the man in his forties surrounded by the crowd. He had thick brown hair and a beard, wore sturdy clothing, and gave off a sense of foreign rigor.

Is he Shennong?

As Hanfu narrowed his eyes to observe him, Shennong actually began to impart his surgical insights. Various professional terms tumbled from his mouth, and the medical staff nearby, including Keiko who had just entered, were listening and learning intently. A few even took out paper and pens to start recording.

A thought stirred in Hanfu's heart.

Regardless of whether Shennong was sincere or feigning it, and regardless of the risks, this was an opportunity not to be missed!

Collection Technique!

The green orb of light in his mind surged instantly. Soon, a bright azure light point erupted from the green orb, emitting a radiance far exceeding the other pale blue light points!

This color...

Hanfu's eyes lit up. He hurriedly wrapped his consciousness around it, and then, he was stunned.

Surgery (Perfect)!

Hanfu had collected a broken version of Ninja Tool Throwing that he couldn't use, and he had collected a usable Ninja Tool Throwing technique, but this was the first time he had ever collected a skill in a perfect state!

As Hanfu enveloped the azure light point with his consciousness, streams of an indescribable warmth poured into his brain. It was as if he had been enlightened; in that instant, the various obscure and difficult professional terms in Shennong's speech became as easy to understand as a simple cheat code!

While the medical staff nearby were struggling to learn, Hanfu had already digested and absorbed all of this knowledge!

At this moment, as long as Hanfu was given enough test subjects to accumulate surgical experience, he could easily reach Shennong's level of achievement!

Of course, only in terms of surgery!

But Hanfu didn't care about that. What he cared about was the meaning behind the word "perfect" following the azure light point. Thinking back to the broken skills he had collected in the past, as well as the fusion and enhancement functions, after a while, Hanfu gradually figured it out.

Broken, Complete, Perfect!

These were the three grades of skills obtained through the Collection Technique!

Taking Ninja Tool Throwing as an example, if the target had not fully mastered it, what was collected would be a broken Ninja Tool Throwing skill, which Hanfu would be unable to use.

If the target had already mastered it, then what was collected would be a complete version of Ninja Tool Throwing, which could be used immediately. As long as he accumulated experience, he could reach the target's level of proficiency!

And then there was perfect!

If the target had practiced Ninja Tool Throwing to the point of mastery, reaching a state of returning to simplicity, then what was collected would be a perfect-level Ninja Tool Throwing skill!

The power of a perfect-level Ninja Tool Throwing skill would definitely far exceed the complete version!

It was like the Ninja Tool Throwing of Uchiha Shisui in his prime; even if ten Kashima Isamu joined forces, they likely wouldn't be able to outplay Uchiha Shisui!

Of course, the most important thing for Hanfu was that through the fusion and enhancement functions of the Collection Technique, broken skills could become complete, and complete skills could naturally evolve into perfect ones!

This function was too important!

With fusion and enhancement, Hanfu's Ninja Tool Throwing, Great Fireball Technique, Three Body Technique, and Chakra Refinement Technique could all evolve to the perfect level, provided he collected enough of them.

Hanfu had even begun to fantasize about possessing perfect-level ninjutsu, taijutsu, genjutsu, and even Kekkei Genkai. Wouldn't his combat power then be enough to crush every other ninja of his level?

He was getting carried away, truly carried away.

He had to develop discreetly and not get cocky!

Hanfu silently warned himself.

At this moment, Shennong's speech had concluded.

Kamijima Chusei, the head of the Medical Department, along with the other medical staff, respectfully invited Shennong into an adjacent Experimental Operating Room.

Inside this operating room lay a patient whose left arm had been bitten by a venomous snake.

"Doctor Shennong, after this patient was bitten by the snake, we took immediate measures to contain the toxin within his left hand. However, to clear this snake venom, the fastest method we can think of that leaves no sequelae is Medical Ninjutsu," Kamijima Chusei said. "Doctor Shennong, please take a look."

"Very well."

Shennong's voice carried a touch of kindness and warmth. Combined with his mysterious and unfathomable medical skills, it was easy for people to feel a sense of closeness and reliance toward him.

"Although snake venom is troublesome, there are other ways to clear it completely besides Medical Ninjutsu."

As Shennong examined the patient, he began to speak, "Prepare some herbs for me. I intend to..."

Kamijima Chusei gave a wink to someone nearby, and that person immediately went out to prepare them.

At the same time, Shennong began to popularize knowledge regarding how to use herbs to clear toxins from the human body.

Once Teacher Shennong started lecturing, the medical staff nearby immediately began taking notes. Even Hanfu's mother, Keiko, took out a small notebook and recorded the information earnestly.

As for Hanfu, standing behind Keiko, he was caught in a dilemma.

To harvest, or not to harvest?

Hanfu could only harvest three skills from Shennong. He had just harvested perfect-level surgery, which meant he only had two harvest opportunities left!

Yet, the "medical skill package" on Shennong likely contained no fewer than ten skills, and they might all be at the perfect level!

The value of these perfect-level medical skills was naturally precious, but Hanfu could harvest at most one more!

Because Hanfu's goal in coming here this time was the forbidden technique of Body Activation, he had to save one harvest opportunity, even if the probability of successfully harvesting the Body Activation forbidden technique was so low that it would leave Shennong with no friends!
