The saved money was what allowed Kido to attend Ninja school.
This is the most realistic glimpse into the lives of ordinary people in Konoha.
Besides this example, there are many others, including Shisui, who had to take on missions at a young age to support his family because of his father's illness and high expenses.
"I can afford it." Hazuki nodded.
She was already prepared to be heavily fleeced by Kiyoshi again.
Her parents were also ninjas and had accumulated a lot of mission rewards during their lives.
As long as she could pay for Yamada's medical expenses, Hazuki was willing to spend all the money.
Seeing her devotion to love, Kiyoshi's lips curled into a smile.
The Uchiha are very stubborn. Once they decide on something, it is almost impossible to change their decision.
Hazuki took out a sum of money and said to Kiyoshi, "This is my sincerity."
Hazuki looked at Kiyoshi. But Kiyoshi shook his head and pushed the money back.
He said, "I took your money before because of the grudges between you and me."
"Now that we are fellow clansmen, it's no longer appropriate to do this. Please go back, Hazuki-nee. I can't perform such an operation."
Kiyoshi made a gesture to send her away.
Hazuki knelt before the low table, her fingertips slightly curled. She looked up at Kiyoshi opposite her, her eyes filled with stubbornness.
"Kiyoshi… I know you can do it. No matter the cost, as long as I can…"
Before she finished speaking, she tried hard to make a smile that could barely be called a smile.
"I have a way to increase the success probability of the surgery. Are you willing?"
Kiyoshi tapped his fingers on the table, saying meaningfully.
"Of course."
Hearing that there was such a good thing, Hazuki immediately agreed.
"You have to help me train."
Kiyoshi beckoned Hazuki, signaling her to come closer. However, the condition Kiyoshi stated shocked Hazuki.
...
Konoha Hospital
Hazuki walked inside with her head down, her heart full of worries.
Kiyoshi's conditions were too harsh, making them somewhat unacceptable to her. She felt a lump in her throat and just wanted to see Yamada.
At this moment, a voice sounded.
"Are you his friend? The patient's condition has been very pessimistic recently. I hope you can persuade him."
Hazuki was stunned.
She was surprised to see a girl with short hair and purple paint or stickers on her face appearing in the ward.
But the information in her words made Hazuki immediately run into the ward.
Soon, she saw Yamada, whose face had turned almost bloodless.
"If the patient adopts direct cutting of the chakra pathway system, he can still live." Rin said.
Ninjas value these things very much, no less than their second life, so they cannot arbitrarily cut the Chakra pathway system.
There have been many such disputes in the hospital before, and over time.
The patient's family or the patient themselves must sign an agreement before it can be done.
"In short, make a decision quickly."
Rin left a sentence and walked out.
She didn't quite understand the mentality of delaying the surgery.
Survival was the most important thing.
But this was the patient's opinion, and the hospital had no right to interfere.
"You're here, Hazuki."
Yamada opened his mouth, the oxygen equipment covering his mouth.
"Yeah."
Hazuki felt terrible seeing Yamada, who used to be quite tall and strong, so weak. But when she thought of Kiyoshi's request, she felt extremely conflicted.
...
The next day
Hokage Building
Minato and Yūki were looking at the same C-rank mission request.
"Lord Third Hokage, is this the mission you arranged for me?" Yūki asked.
"Yes, hasn't your team all become Chunin? You can also carry out this mission."
Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of smoke and said.
Yūki is the Jonin leading Kiyoshi, Asuma, and Kurenai. It would be good to let them go out and train this time.
"Yes." Yūki said.
Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "Minato, your team members have just graduated, but Kakashi is very skilled. Coupled with you, there shouldn't be any danger."
Hearing this, Minato nodded.
This mission was to go to a mysterious Land of Demons for guard duty.
It is said that the priestess there had recently felt uneasy and said that Moryo might break the seal again.
However, Minato didn't know how strong that Moryo was. But since it could only be sealed, it shouldn't be simple.
"Lord Third Hokage, I will complete this mission." Minato nodded.
Yūki, who was beside him, had a relaxed expression.
This mission was to be carried out by two teams together. With Minato, it can be considered a strong alliance.
What pressure could there be to deal with a small local monster?
In his opinion, Moryo's strength was just exaggerated.
...
"Haven't made a decision yet?"
In the ward, Rin came in to check on the patient's condition.
She would come to help out at Konoha Hospital when she was free, especially with so many patients recently.
"I… I'll think about it." Hazuki sighed.
Yamada didn't want to give up his qualifications as a ninja and refused to cut the Chakra pathway system.
But now there were no medical ninjas who could guarantee the completion of this surgery.
Forcing those people to do it might result in a success rate of less than 10%, which was no different from gambling with life.
Rin said, "Then you have to hurry, Kiyoshi is about to go out on a mission."
This noon, Rin learned that they were going to a place called the Land of Demons to perform a guard mission.
"Go on a mission?"
Hazuki was stunned and quickly asked for details.
The patient Rin patiently told Hazuki one by one, and finally asked Hazuki to persuade the patient again.
She then wrote the situation on the medical record and prepared to walk out the door.
Hazuki's face changed drastically. She bit her lip, and decided to talk to Kiyoshi again.
"Kiyoshi is on the fifth floor now, you better go find him quickly."
Rin, who had taken a step out of the ward, kindly reminded her.
"…Okay."
Hazuki thanked Rin and started walking upstairs.
Not long after, Kiyoshi, who was on the fifth floor, heard a knock on the door.
"The door isn't locked." Kiyoshi said.
Nono has gone out to perform a mission, and this office is temporarily left for him to use alone.
"It's Hazuki-nee, have you figured it out yet?" Kiyoshi whispered like a demon.
"I… I understand."
Hazuki took a deep breath.
All of this is for… Daiyu.
Thinking of her memories with Yamada before, Hazuki began to squat down. Kiyoshi stopped her and helped her up.
"Hazuki-nee, that's not how it's done." Kiyoshi shook his head and said.
Since he's pursuing excitement, then he must carry it through to the end.
Then he changed into surgical clothes, summoned a few nurses to get Yamada into the operating room, and then prepared to start the surgery.
"You… are you going to do it alone?" Hazuki said in astonishment.
Kiyoshi actually dismissed everyone else, leaving only her and Yamada.
"With my Sharingan, others will only be a burden." Kiyoshi said lightly.
Many things here are different from the medical treatment of his previous life. He alone can preside over this operation.
"Then, let's begin. Help me increase the success rate of the surgery."
After Kiyoshi injected the anesthetic and waited for Yamada to fall into anesthesia, he said slowly.
As long as his pupil power is enhanced, the insight of the Sharingan will also get stronger.
He stood in front of the operating table, operating on Yamada while looking at Hazuki.
He signaled Hazuki to start.
This was an indispensable part of assisting in the completion of the surgery.
Hazuki's face changed constantly, looking at Kiyoshi who had cut Yamada's skin but suddenly stopped.
She trembled and said, "I will… do it…"
Hazuki summoned Kiyoshi's unique summoning beast, the "Behemoth", with a crying voice.
A large shadow loomed over her face.
