Chapter 38: Life and Death(1/3)
Consciousness is somewhere between coma and wakefulness.
Due to the anesthesia given before the operation, Sasuke felt that his whole body was weak during the operation, but other than that, he didn't feel anything special.
I don't know how long this state of confusion lasted. It wasn't until he heard a word in his ear: "Okay." Sasuke realized that the operation was over.
However, because the effects of the anesthetic still remained in the body, Sasuke had to get up slowly. Sasuke was not used to this feeling of loss of feeling, because it would make it impossible for him to understand the state of his body in time and lose control of his body.
Control.
About five minutes passed, and the anesthesia in his body disappeared. Sasuke regained control of his body, but he still felt a little uncoordinated.
Compared to the state before the operation, Sasuke clearly felt that his body had become lighter, and after clenching his fists, he felt the power contained in his fists, and his strength also increased significantly.
Although this enhancement did not produce any qualitative changes, it was enough for Sasuke to understand that his body had become stronger than before.
Moreover, Sasuke thinks this is a good thing.
If his strength suddenly becomes so powerful that even he can't control it, then when someone asks, Sasuke doesn't know how to answer.
Although Kakashi didn't say it clearly, Sasuke didn't understand anything. This kind of surgery that can effectively enhance the strength of the human body should obviously not be mentioned to unrelated people.
Thinking of this, Sasuke glanced at the woman standing aside who had just performed surgery on him—Asami Masumi.
"Who are you?"
"Director of the Pharmacy Department of Konoha Hospital. Isn't this obvious?"
Asami Masumi's expression under the mask was a little loose, as if she had an interesting smile.
"Yeah?"
"What else could it be?"
Asami Masumi asked back.
This rhetorical question left Sasuke speechless.
Yes, other than the director of the pharmacy department of Konoha Hospital, what other answer could there be?
Although the other party's style of dealing with things is a bit mysterious, he is still a member of Konoha.
"However, I didn't expect that you would be so bold as to leave your body to me without any precautions. Should I say you are courageous or naive?"
Asami Masumi stared at Sasuke's young but handsome face.
If I were twenty years younger, maybe I would try to pursue the other person.
After all, even she is not immune to such creatures as handsome men.
"If Kakashi wants to harm me, he has had plenty of opportunities in the past few years. There is no need to start doing it at this time."
Sasuke gave this answer.
Asami Masumi smiled and said: "The bond of trust between you and Kakashi seems to be stronger than I thought. However, that guy also lies with his mouth, so be careful not to be betrayed by him."
"What's your relationship with him?"
"Grasshopper on a boat."
"?"
What kind of answer was this? Sasuke gave her a strange look, but in the end he stopped his curiosity and stopped asking.
Because he knew that even if he asked, the other party would probably not say anything and would instead remain tight-lipped.
This is very similar to Kakashi.
No matter how much you talk about insignificant things, you won't care.
Once some sensitive topics are involved, it will be extremely difficult to get them to talk.
Just because they are easy to talk to, don't think that you can ask questions casually.
Some questions will obviously violate other people's work privacy.
At this point, Sasuke still knows the importance. Because he also doesn't like others to explore his privacy.
"Speaking of which, how do you feel about your body now compared to before?"
Asami Masumi changed the subject.
"My body has become lighter, and the power I can use is greater... Probably because my nerve response ability and strength have been enhanced. As for chakra..."
Sasuke closed his eyes, calmed down, and slowly explored the mysteries inside his body.
"how?"
Asami Masumi asked.
Sasuke opened his eyes, glanced at the other person, and replied: "It has increased, but the amount of increase is minimal."
Compared with the obvious changes in nerve response ability and strength, the increase in chakra in his body is very flat. If you don't observe carefully, you may think that there is no change from before.
"Of course, compared with physical and mental energy, chakra is easily perceived by perception ninjutsu. I also said at the beginning that my surgery can only make an immediate impact on the quality of your 'container'. Now even if you
Even if your chakra is twice as strong, your body will be able to withstand it without burdening your body and mind."
"What about chakra?"
Sasuke is concerned about this issue.
Although it is a good thing to improve the quality of his 'container', Sasuke is more concerned about the issue of chakra.
No matter how big the container is, it is just a container. The chakra inside the container is the most important source for effectively improving strength.
"The medicine I use in your body will subtly strengthen your chakra in the next year. The specific effect is that after one year, your chakra will tend to be in the 'container'
Full state.”
After hearing this, Sasuke nodded with satisfaction.
Asami Masumi said that even if her chakra was twice as powerful at this time, with her current 'container', she could still fully consume it.
And after a year, his chakra will become full in the 'container'.
What this means is naturally self-evident.
His chakra will increase at least twice this value within a year.
Using the Chidori as the conversion unit, he can now use the Chidori three times a day.
If you use it for the fourth time, it will fail due to insufficient chakra, the spell will be counterattacked, and the Sharingan will not be able to open.
And a year later, his chakra was enough to support the use of Chidori more than six times a day, and this was while keeping the Sharingan open.
This level of improvement completely exceeded Sasuke's imagination.
He looked at Asami Masumi eagerly, with a hint of desire in his eyes.
Asami Masumi naturally knew what Sasuke's longing eyes meant.
It is indeed not an easy thing to satisfy a young boy. Especially a ninja like Sasuke who has a high demand for strength.
"Sorry, this kind of surgery can only be used once by a person. Don't always think about taking these shortcuts. After all, the reason why this surgery can improve you so much is because of your own qualifications. Most people can do it in the original condition.
Basically increasing chakra by 30% is already a medical miracle."
Precisely because chakra is the basis of all ninjutsu, taijutsu, and illusions, it is extremely difficult to accumulate chakra.
Some ninjas may not be able to double their chakra after practicing for five or ten years.
"What exactly is this surgery? Are there any side effects?"
Sasuke asked.
Asami Masumi put one hand in the pocket of her white coat, but her eyes looked directly at Sasuke through the shining white lenses.
"I have no interest in using substandard drugs on experimental subjects. And this thing should be familiar to you. The drug I just gave you is related to natural energy."
"Natural energy?"
Sasuke's face was slightly startled, showing a serious look.
"Yes, the substances injected into your body have been perfectly integrated with your flesh, blood, and even soul. But I didn't expect that after following Kakashi for several years, your natural energy still hasn't been cultivated.
Just like your brother Itachi, he has too many distracting thoughts and obsessions and cannot control them."
"Do you know Itachi?"
Sasuke was a little surprised.
"He used to be a regular visitor to the hospital. He would come here basically every month to pick up medicine, injury medicine, recovery medicine, etc. The month before he defected to Konoha, he also took a large amount of calming medicine from the hospital.
drug."
"A calming drug?"
Sasuke was thoughtful.
Under normal circumstances, no ninja needs this special medicine.
Only those ninjas with mental problems will take a small amount and use it with caution.
But Asami Masumi said that Itachi took a large amount of calming medicine from the hospital one month before leaving Konoha...
