"Jonin Qian!"
"Captain!"
"."
The moment Qian appeared, all the surviving Leaf shinobi in the field stood up and greeted him one after another.
Qian looked at them, nodded, and ordered them to rest while they could and prepare for Mist Village's next attack.
Then he found a spot and began tending to his injuries.
Qian first looked at his left shoulder, then the right side of his waist, abdomen, and thigh. There were three wounds in total, caused by one Senbon and two Kunai.
The injuries were not serious, but the toxins contained within them could not be underestimated.
Fortunately, his current Physical Constitution attribute had reached 19 points, greatly strengthening his recovery and self-healing ability.
Together with the presence of chakra, that was what allowed him to resist the toxin's corrosion.
Otherwise, it really would have been hard to say.
Qian formed hand seals and performed the Delicate Illness Extraction Technique, carefully sensing the distribution of the toxins within the wounds.
Only after a long while did he begin extracting those toxins.
Soon, a clump of pitch-black, ink-like blood was drawn out from the wound on his shoulder. He flung it onto the ground, where it gave off a thick, foul stench.
Qian frowned slightly, flipped his palm, and a ball of Fire Release Chakra appeared, which he struck onto the mass of poison.
With a boom, the flames spread out and evaporated it completely.
Once the unpleasant smell disappeared, Qian performed the Delicate Illness Extraction Technique again, separating the toxins from within his body.
Before long, several more clumps of black blood were drawn out from the wound on his shoulder, then burned away.
"Phew~"
Feeling that the numbness in his shoulder was gone, Qian let out a soft breath.
He circulated the Delicate Illness Extraction Technique
