Instead of just giving them the chance to survive, why not heal them and give them the opportunity to live well?
A future where they have the freedom to choose is what true living means.
Naoki Kaguya thought this and didn’t hesitate.
Byakugan, activate.
His evolved eyes scanned the entire room, seeing veins, chakra, everything.
Gradually, Naoki Kaguya’s eyes locked onto one person.
Bones shattered, tendons partially torn but not severely.
This person was a perfect candidate for experimenting with Shikotsumyaku-assisted healing.
Naoki Kaguya thought this and immediately pointed.
“What is your name?”
Shinichi paused for a moment, then, somewhat uncertainly, pointed to himself. After receiving Naoki Kaguya’s affirmative nod, he excitedly replied.
“I am Shinichi.”
“Shinichi, come with me.”
Saying this, Naoki Kaguya turned to the others.
“Rest assured, even if I can’t heal you, I will find a way out for everyone.”
After saying this, Naoki Kaguya turned and left. He didn’t like making empty promises; he preferred making every promise a reality.
“Yes, Mizukage-sama.”
Shinichi followed the Fourth Mizukage closely. Apart from occasionally stealing glances at Naoki Kaguya, he couldn’t help but stand tall under the curious gazes of the surrounding ninjas.
The arm he could no longer lift hung at his side, unmoving.
Since he could no longer be a ninja, this moment of glory was precious, and he intended to seize it.
As they walked, a sense of loss and emptiness washed over him.
Sure enough, he still hoped to continue being a ninja rather than merely surviving.
Shinichi felt despondent but knew he couldn’t change anything, so he kept walking with his head down.
But as he saw the sign “Kirigakure Hospital,” a strange feeling arose in him.
Should he remind Mizukage-sama that his injuries couldn’t be treated here?
“Rin.”
Naoki Kaguya called out softly to Rin, who had been idly writing medical manuals in the empty hospital.
“Naoki-sama.”
She tapped her mask and looked at the Mizukage’s companion, recognizing him immediately, then lowered her head in sadness.
“Doctor.”
Shinichi called out softly, making Rin lower her head even more.
“Since no one else is here, let’s experiment right here. You two, just wait.”
Naoki Kaguya formed seals with his hands, and five or six bone clones appeared.
Without hesitation, he activated his Byakugan and began examining the injury, finding it difficult to manipulate. He created a large hammer from bone and struck it hard, trying five times before creating a similar injury.
At Naoki Kaguya’s signal, the bone clones began using chakra to heal the injury.
Is it not just chakra?
It still stems from the cells controlled by the bloodline.
Seeing this, Naoki Kaguya felt a bit disheartened.
If so, how is it different from Hashirama’s cells?
When transplanted into another body, Hashirama’s cells would eventually take over without absolute chakra or physical suppression.
If this method was used to heal bones, Shinichi would likely end up the same.
The Uzumaki clan.
Naoki Kaguya’s eyes suddenly lit up.
The Uzumaki have a similar constitution. Why can they heal?
Perhaps it’s due to inheriting a different aspect of the Ōtsutsuki body?
Naoki Kaguya paused, feeling he had found part of the answer.
The Uchiha and Hyuga inherited the Sage’s eyes.
Senju inherited the Sage’s body.
Did the Uzumaki inherit the Sage’s blood?
Therefore, biting and infusing Yang Release chakra into their blood allows them to heal.
Naoki Kaguya took a deep breath.
The Kaguya clan inherited the Sage’s bones.
Therefore, infusing Yang Release chakra into the bones could promote rapid bone growth.
So, our ability to rapidly generate bones for combat must stem from a power within our bone cells that aids this process.
From a chakra perspective, the chakra that enables this function must be Yang Release.
Naoki Kaguya took a deep breath, looking at the pure white bone with his Byakugan. He quickly found the unique chakra color.
A color rarely seen in others, which Naoki Kaguya had previously ignored, now appeared as Yang Release chakra.
In ordinary Shikotsumyaku, the Yang Release chakra is weak and only affects oneself.
But I am different.
I have taken Shikotsumyaku the farthest, possessing the most Yang Release chakra in my bones.
Naoki Kaguya, with his Byakugan, focused intently, trying to control this power that he could previously only move by instinct.
After a long time, as Rin and Shinichi sat by the bed, Naoki Kaguya suddenly smiled.
Success.
Not only can I use it to heal others, but I can also smoothly and naturally control Yang Release chakra in the future.
Without these Byakugan, I might have spent my life relying on instinct to use this power.
Thank goodness for them.
“Bring the things up here.”
Naoki Kaguya suddenly shouted.
Several ninjas, previously notified by the bone clones, brought in animals with shattered bones.
He placed his hands on them, watching closely as their bones grew rapidly, breaking through their bodies and causing death.
Not yet.
Naoki Kaguya murmured.
I still need to consider the amount of chakra and how to apply it.
He continued to mutter.
Naoki Kaguya kept trying.
Shinichi watched, clenched his fists, and guessed.
That night, feeling the need for more experiments, Naoki Kaguya let Shinichi return to the room to wait.
His companions gathered around him.
“Shinichi, what did the Fourth Mizukage want with you?”
“Did he mention what the village plans for us?”
Their tones were excited, trembling, and anxious.
Following the Mizukage’s idea that, after becoming disabled, they wouldn’t need to find another way out and would be provided for by the village was a life they had never dared to dream of.
Shinichi paused, shaking his head, and looked into the eyes that were once filled with despair but now showed a glimmer of hope.
An epiphany struck him.
“Perhaps, our future won’t just be arranged.”
“We might still become ninjas.”
“What a joke, how is that possible?”
The ninjas shook their heads in disbelief, but seeing Shinichi’s serious expression, they became earnest.
“Are you serious, Shinichi?”
Shinichi thought of the bones breaking through the body and nodded seriously.
“The Fourth Mizukage is doing his best to reattach our arms!”
Reattach our arms?
