An incompetent husband? [Make-up update] (Fifth and sixth updates)

"The second practical exam is said to be held in the Forest of Death; the specific rules will be announced on the day of the exam."

"The Forest of Death?----"

Hyuga Ginka repeated the name softly, her expression somewhat solemn.

The Forest of Death is the largest and most complex Training Ground in Konoha, filled with poisonous insects, Beast, and natural traps, and is considered a high-risk area even under normal circumstances.

"With your Byakugan around, the second round was actually the easiest."

Qingyu said.

"Ginka's Byakugan can detect enemies and traps in advance. As long as we don't deliberately walk into traps, clearing the level is just a matter of time."

Upon Hyuga Ginka's beautiful face relaxed somewhat.

She looked up at Qingyu, a sense of relief welling up inside her.

After all, the pursuit of power is human nature.

Having followed Qingyu on so many missions, she had long since discovered a pattern.

No matter how dangerous the mission, as long as Qingyu is there, it seems there's no problem that can't be solved.

Not far away, Yūhi Kurenai, Rin Nohara, and the others walked over from another row of registration windows.

"Hong, you really came too."

Qingyu looked at their group.

"Of course! Since you're participating, how could I not come?"

She walked to Qingyu's side and looked up at him.

"However, I'll need to borrow a few notebooks from Shizune to review the written test."

"No problem."

Shizune stood behind Yūhi Kurenai, a gentle smile on her face.

"I've compiled several theoretical notes, I'll get them for you when I get back. They've all marked with key points, memorizing them will help you pass."

"Very good!"

Yūhi Kurenai happily took Shizune's hand.

Obito squeezed into the crowd, watching Yūhi Kurenai chatting and laughing with Shizune, and then looked at the application form in his hand, a heavy sense of pressure welling up inside him.

He turned his head and asked Genma Shiranui in a low voice, "Genma Shiranui —what exactly is on the written test?"

Genma Shiranui, with Senbon dangling from his mouth, thought for a moment and then answered seriously, "Theoretical foundational knowledge, mission case analysis, code deciphering, tactical reasoning—that's about it. The test points from previous years have been pretty much the same."

Obito's face grew paler and paler.

He's bad at none of these things.

Only then did he realize that one only regrets not having read enough when the time comes to use it!

"Don't worry about Obito. It's not too late to try now. Even if you fail, you can try again next year."

Rin Nohara comforted her.

Obito was about to say something, Rin Nohara waved to Qingyu again, signaling him to come over.

"Lin, why did you call Qingyu over here?"

"Qingyu is very good at written tests, let him highlight the key points."

Rin Nohara.

Upon Obito, Obito wanted to firmly say that he didn't need it!

But if I don't do well on the test, I'll definitely embarrass myself in front of Rin Nohara again.

For a moment, Obito hesitated.

He felt like he was an incompetent teammate.

She could only watch Rin Nohara went to Qingyu to learn from her.

One week later, at Konoha Hospital.

Several cages were placed on the experimental table in front of Qingyu.

Inside the cage, a white mouse, a rabbit, and a light gray guinea pig were eating from their respective food bowls, which contained varying doses of a dark purple banned substance.

Qingyu used different dosages to test these experimental animals.

The mice showed the most obvious reaction; they exhibited symptoms similar to Chakra disorder on the very night they were given the drug, including rapid breathing and constricted pupils.

But by the next morning, all the symptoms had disappeared, and the mouse was even more active than the others, running on the wheel all night without stopping.

The rabbit experienced a brief increase in heart rate after ingesting a very small amount of the banned drug, but quickly returned to normal.

The guinea pigs showed the slightest reaction, with almost no noticeable change.

"The side effects are indeed minimal."

Qingyu closed the experimental record and wrote the conclusion on the last page with a pen.

Orochimaru's control over drug formulations is beyond doubt; he is considered an authority.

After all, these are clinical trials with "volunteers".

Qingyu was simply checking whether Orochimaru had placed any Cursed Seal or other backdoors.

After all, Orochimaru truly considered Mitarashi Anko his disciple, yet he still ended up placing Cursed Seal on her.

In other words, even if Orochimaru genuinely cares for someone, it doesn't prevent him from leaving a backdoor.

"It seems Orochimaru's corruption isn't too severe yet."

Qingyu pondered to herself.

Orochimaru still has some principles in his actions; the banned drugs he provides are genuinely effective in enhancing strength.

Qingyu took out the bottle of dark purple forbidden medicine from her Ninja Tool Pouch.

He uncorked the bottle, tilted his head back, and drank the medicine inside.

I only drank a small portion of the prescribed dose.

The liquid slid down my throat, carrying a bitter, Yakumi.

Qingyu could feel the medicine dissolving in her stomach and then spreading throughout her body along the meridian system.

The "Glutton" trait also enhanced Qingyu's absorption of the medicine.

The amount of Chakra is increasing.

It's about half the strength of Genin.

"You need to take nine more."

Qingyu made an estimate in her mind.

The condition for upgrading the trait is to take ten different forbidden drugs, and he has already taken one.

One week later, in the afternoon.

Konoha Hospital.

Qingyu and Tsunade went to Konoha Hospital together.

Tsunade is currently on temporary assignment at Konoha Hospital, so she needs to visit her periodically.

Even if they can't perform surgery, they can still provide theoretical guidance to other medical-nin.

This is even more important during wartime.

As the number of wounded increases sooner or later, medical care becomes a crucial logistical task.

As the two entered Konoha Hospital, medical staff greeted Tsunade and Qingyu along the way.

Qingyu nodded from time to time.

At first, people treated him this way because of their connections, but later others discovered that Qingyu's Medical Ninjutsu was a complete inheritance of Tsunade's talent, and thus he gained genuine respect.

Half an hour later.

Tsunade stood outside the glass partition of the operating room, arms crossed, watching the surgical procedure unfold inside.

She was wearing a white medical coat today, and her long blonde hair was tied into a low ponytail at the back of her head.

The surgeon in the operating room was a medical Jonin, about the same age as Tsunade, who was performing organ repair surgery on a ninja with abdominal injuries.

"Make the cut here, being careful to avoid the surrounding nerves. Yes, right here. When suturing, use the Chakra in your left hand for traction, and the suture thread in your right hand should follow the flow of Chakra. Don't use brute force."

Tsunade's voice came from outside the glass partition.

A thin layer of sweat appeared on the forehead of the chief surgeon, a high-ranking medical Jonin.

Although he was the same age as Tsunade, he dared not be presumptuous in front of Tsunade.

They diligently followed Tsunade's instructions to adjust their movements, while the surrounding medical-nin also took careful notes.

[Collectible trait detected: Surgery]

[D-Rank Trait: Surgery]

[Effect: Increases surgical ability by 30%.]

[Crafting: Successfully performing ten surgeries will upgrade this trait to a higher level]

There's another trait.

Qingyu casually turned off the app and continued listening to Tsunade's explanation.

The surgery ended half an hour later.

The chief surgeon, Jonin, removed his gloves and walked out of the operating room.

"Thank you for your guidance, Lady Tsunade. I've never been able to master the techniques for those last few steps before, but I finally understand them today."

"Yes, go back and practice more, so you won't panic next time you encounter a similar injury."

Tsunade, then turned and left.

Qingyu followed behind her, and the two walked side by side down the corridor of Konoha Hospital.

"There is still much to learn about Medical Ninjutsu; remember not to be arrogant or complacent."

Tsunade said as she walked.

"I understand, Sister Tsunade."

Qingyu nodded, then took a piece of candy out of her pocket and handed it over.

Tsunade taken aback at first, then looked down at the Qingyu's hand, and then looked up at his face.

Then she reached out and took the candy, unwrapped it, and popped it into her mouth, her cheeks puffing out slightly.

Qingyu felt that Tsunade was quite cute at this time.

She looks a bit like Tsunade in her teenage years.

However, after Tsunade matured into a more serious woman, she became somewhat more serious.

This adorable side of her might only be revealed when she's sleeping.

"You're quite thoughtful, kid. No wonder you're so popular with girls."

Tsunade, licked it with her pink tongue, and mumbled something indistinctly.

The sweetness of the candy melted in her mouth; Tsunade discovered it was lemon-flavored, both sour and sweet.

"I'm an honest person, Sister Tsunade."

Qingyu answered without changing her expression.

He was a scholar who had studied the Spring and Autumn Annals; it was their business if the girls welcomed him.

Tsunade rolled her eyes at him, but the corners of her mouth still curled up.

After walking for a while, Qingyu saw Rin Nohara come out of the emergency room passage.

She was wearing a white medical gown with the sleeves rolled up to her elbows, and looked very busy.

"Qingyu?"

Rin Nohara also saw Qingyu, paused for a moment, and a hint of surprise flashed in her brown eyes.

"Greetings Lady Tsunade."

Rin Nohara also noticed Tsunade next to Qingyu.

Tsunade nodded slightly.

"Lin, are you helping?"

Qingyu asked.

"Yes, the emergency room is short-staffed today, so I came to help."

Rin Nohara wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve and pointed to the busy figures in the emergency room corridor behind her.

The sound of a stretcher being pushed out came from the depths of the corridor, accompanied by the low groans of the wounded and the hurried footsteps of the medical staff.

Although the war has not yet fully unfolded, small-scale conflicts on the border have already doubled the number of wounded at Konoha Hospital.

Are there a few more patients who need treatment? Let me help.

Qingyu glanced at the record board that Rin Nohara was holding, on which were written the names of several patients and their corresponding injuries in neat handwriting.

One was Lightning Style burn, two were Kunai puncture wounds, and the other was poisoning.

Qingyu planned to see if he could collect any more traits, and also hone his Medical Ninjutsu skills.

Ninjutsu is essentially a skill, and the more you use it, the more proficient you become.

"Really?"

Rin Nohara's eyes brightened slightly, but she quickly suppressed them and shook her head.

"But Qingyu, aren't you here to keep Lady Tsunade today? How could I trouble you again—"

"No need, no need, you two young people should get along."

Tsunade waved her hand.

She came to explain things, and now that she's finished, it's time for her to go home.

If she goes back now, Tsunade can probably still catch the Izakaya's discount event.

Tsunade can buy some alcohol and then go home happily.

After saying that, Tsunade turned and left.

Qingyu looked at Rin Nohara and said, "Sister Tsunade is gone. Let's go. It'll be faster for the two of us to handle this. You'll be busy until evening by yourself."

Rin Nohara watched his retreating figure, gently bit her lower lip, and then quickly followed after him.

The emergency room reeked of blood.

Several ninjas, their bodies wrapped in bandages, lay on the beds on either side of the corridor. Some were resting with their eyes closed, while others were whispering to their companions.

Qingyu and Rin Nohara walked to the innermost hospital bed.

A young ninja lay on the bed, his right arm bearing a large, charred burn scar, with several blisters of varying sizes on his skin.

The skin at the edges had carbonized and cracked, revealing pinkish new tissue underneath.

"Lightning Style burns, the area isn't large but the depth is considerable; necrotic tissue needs to be removed first before promoting new tissue growth."

Qingyu looked down to examine the wound, then Hand Seals, and a ball of pale green medical Chakra lit up in her palms.

Rin Nohara stood on the other side of the hospital bed, her hands also radiating medical Chakra, and began to treat the infected area at the edge of the burn in coordination with Qingyu's movements.

Qingyu was responsible for the removal of large areas of necrotic tissue and the repair of deep tissues, Rin Nohara was responsible for edge disinfection and the promotion of new skin growth.

Green medical Chakra flowed back and forth between his hands, and the young ninja on the hospital bed gradually relaxed his brows, his expression of pain noticeably lessening.

"Qingyu's technique is so steady."

As Rin Nohara used her medical Chakra to stimulate the growth of new skin tissue, she couldn't help but sigh softly.

She had seen many medical-nin treat burns, but few could do what Qingyu did: peeling away necrotic tissue with almost no disturbance to the surrounding healthy skin, each cut precise down to the cellular level.

"Lin is not bad either."

Qingyu answered without looking up, but her hands didn't stop moving at all.

Upon hearing the praise, Rin Nohara's cheeks flushed slightly, and she lowered her head to continue focusing on treating her wound.

A dozen minutes later, all the burn patients' wounds were treated.

Qingyu withdrew his Chakra and went to treat several other patients.

By the time it was finished, it was already dusk.

Rin Nohara took off her gloves and let out a long breath.

Qingyu stood next to her, washed her hands, and then took out a piece of candy from her pocket and handed it to her.

"Sugar."

Qingyu took out the same kind of candy he had given to Tsunade, and Rin Nohara thanked him and accepted it.

After putting it in her mouth, she squinted her eyes slightly.

"Thank you, Qingyu. If it weren't for your help today, I really wouldn't have been able to handle everything alone. Several patients' injuries were beyond my capabilities. If it weren't for you—"

You can manage without me.

Qingyu interrupted her.

"Rin, your Chakra control is already very strong, and your foundation in Medical Ninjutsu is solid. Give you some more time, and you will definitely become a very powerful medical-nin."

Qingyu said.

Rin Nohara's fingers unconsciously tightened around the candy wrapper.

I just felt my heart beating a little faster.
