[Naruto/ABO] The days of being a medical dog in Konoha

“Isn’t the purpose of studying medicine to change your life against the odds?”

-

"Orochimaru wants Sasuke's body?" Recalling the sticky touch on the side of my face, I felt a chill.

The headache that had subsided came back again.

"He came to contact you, probably because he wants to use your ability to free the next body from the constraints of genes." Kakashi handed over a glass of water.

"Take the medicine quickly. I've been feverish for three days."

I took the warm water, put the antipyretic medicine in my mouth and swallowed it.

That night, I was so frightened that I started to have a fever and had dreams about the past for several days.

Dreaming about my parents, dreaming about every bit of the Federation.

How sad will they be when I'm not here?

The man in front of him came closer, his glands were covered, and the cold chakra and pheromones slowly merged.

After a while, I pushed him away and said, "Okay. Things are unstable recently. Don't consume too much chakra."

The people in front of me always put all the burdens on their shoulders. Even when Orochimaru suddenly appeared in the intensive care unit, he thought he was too careless.

In fact, it's not his responsibility at all.

That day, Team 7 in the Forest of Death was attacked by Orochimaru, Sasuke was sealed by the curse of the underworld, and the Konoha Jonin Team gathered urgently.

As a Jonin, he should be at the forefront.

Immediately afterwards, the critical care department of Konoha Hospital was shrouded in an unknown illusion, and all medical staff were infected.

Faced with powerful enemies and emergencies hidden in the dark, Kakashi was unable to do anything at all. How could he possibly take care of both sides?

I drank the water in the water glass in one breath, followed the strength of the person next to me, straddled his lap, and spoke out all the questions in my heart.

"Kakashi, Orochimaru appears in Konoha this time. Besides me, what else is his purpose?"

"There was such a commotion that night, but I was still sitting here."

"The third qualifying round of the Chuunin Examination has ended. What is he waiting for?"

"I'm afraid it has something to do with the Sandaime." He hugged me, "Orochimaru is the Sandaime's disciple. When the Fourth Generation ran for office, he was one of the candidates. But in the end, the Sandaime nominated my teacher, Yellow Flash.

"Later, the Sandaime discovered that he was secretly conducting research on forbidden techniques on the human body, and then he defected."

Human body forbidden technique?

Matsumoto's pale face appeared in his mind.

"I also participated in that arrest operation, but it ended in failure."

He turned his gaze sideways and looked at the group photo on the window sill.

"After sealing Sasuke, I met Orochimaru. He left these words..."

"Sasuke is an Avenger who will pursue his goals no matter how evil they are."

"He asserted that Sasuke would go find him on his own..."

Kakashi's muscles were tense and trembling, and something was wrong with his mental state.

I hugged the head of the person in front of me and patted his back gently. Pheromones spread in the air.

He was so immersed in the confrontation scene that he couldn't get out. He hugged me tightly and continued talking.

"Facing one of the legendary three ninjas, I naively thought that I could die with him now."

"But even if I die...I will protect them."

This "them" is Team 7 and his colleagues who he has always treated with care.

In the heart of this silver-haired jounin, the survival of his companions was more important than his own survival.

If faced with a life or death decision, he would sacrifice himself without hesitation to protect his companions.

This is the way of ninja he inherited from the hero who gave him the Sharingan.

"Kakashi."

I held his face and kissed the tears on his cheeks.

He reached out and pushed me towards him, kissing me hard.

The air was snatched away, and lips and tongues were entangled.

The body temperature is rising.

After an unknown amount of time, we separated slightly and the tips of our noses touched each other's.

His lips were moist and his voice was hoarse,

"Zhaozhao...I think..."

...

There was a sound in my ears.

The purple-haired dark figure climbed through the window and entered.

"I'm sorry to interrupt you two. Kakashi-senpai, something happened to Hayate! Please Dr. Liu come with me right away!"

...

-

Konoha Hospital Emergency Room.

I put on a mask and sanitized my hands.

"what's the situation?"

"The latent mission was discovered..."

"I am a doctor and I am asking about the condition of the injured."

"The injured arrived two minutes ago with a lacerated chest extending from the heart to the right lower abdomen. On the way back to the village, his heartbeat suddenly revived. The Anbu who transported him used chakra to stop the bleeding and injected adrenaline to maintain his heartbeat... Oops!"

The heart monitor alarm sounds.

Blood spilled profusely.

"The bleeding point ruptured again."

Putting on gloves, I quickly pressed down on the bleeding hole. I carefully observed the injury, and stretched out my other hand to the first responder, "Hemostatic forceps."

"Hemorrhagic shock grade IV (blood loss above 40%), whole blood transfusion."

"Oxygen is on full blast."

"Yes!"

The blood vessel break is clamped. I lowered my head and began to sew quickly.

But as soon as the suturing was completed, the sirens changed.

I looked at the ECG monitor and it was terrible.

"Ventricular fibrillation, prepare for defibrillation!"

"One milligram of epinephrine intravenously."

"Yes!"

"Two hundred joules ready."

After defibrillation is completed, continue cardiac compressions.

...

A round of first aid ended, and the heart rate was...zero.

"Everyone try again! Continue CPR!"

"When you get tired, change to the next one."

"Take turns!"

...

At the end of the second round, the heart rate is still zero.

...

So... on to round three.

I pressed on his chest. Panting.

The headache that had been suppressed before got worse.

...

I know very well that this special person is dead.

He had underlying diseases, and despite the massive blood loss, it was a miracle that he could survive until he returned to the village.

I have been studying his case.

He told me not long ago that he wanted to live longer for the one he loves.

But things are unpredictable, and his future came to an abrupt end just now.

The ANBU named Uzuki Xiyan was left alone, kneeling outside the emergency room and praying to the sky.

It was she who brought Hayate back.

As an Anbu, she must know what such injuries and blood loss mean.

So for a couple in love, how should the one left behind live?

Ninjas have to face sudden death, and so do doctors.

But put aside these identities that come with responsibilities, just be a lover.

If one day, Kakashi leaves me alone...

Will I be helpless like Maoyue Xiyan?

Kneel on the ground and pray to the gods?

Is there really a god in this world?

Please save this man

...

Golden vertical pupils suddenly opened in a shadow.

The rebellious ninja's voice echoed in my ears along with his hissing.

He chuckled and said,

"Changing one's fate against fate is the right way."

What did I say then? I said that birth, old age, illness and death are human nature.

But that was just a casual talk to deal with him.

I know the real answer.

Medicine is about changing one's destiny against nature.

As a doctor, I have learned how to treat illnesses and save people for so long, and I think I have superb skills.

However, the natural laws of the world are as unshakable as gods. They looked condescendingly at my failures time and time again, and then proudly said to me,

"Liu Zhaozhao. You can't keep those who should leave."

...

The door to the emergency room was pushed open.

"Zhaozhao, I'm here."

Senior Xizi stood opposite me, stretched out his hand and handed something out.

I looked down and saw the highest concentration of leaf.

If injected within three minutes after the physical signs disappear, there is an 85% chance of "reviving the dead".

Where is it?

I glanced at her and she seemed to know what I wanted to ask.

"The Sandaime gave it to me. He said he couldn't just watch his subordinates die."

It's him.

There are only two bottles of high-concentration leaf, and the whereabouts of the remaining one are still unknown.

Now Orochimaru was coming towards him, and at this juncture, he gave this bottle to his subordinates.

This is indeed his style.

Shadow exists to protect everyone in the village.

I took a deep breath and took the leaf.

After pressing CPR for too long, my hands couldn't control their trembling.

He looked up at the clock on the wall and saw that his heart had stopped beating for four to six minutes, indicating that the patient was irreversibly brain dead.

It's just past six minutes. It exceeds the golden three minutes of leaf, and also exceeds the four to six minutes of brain death.

But ninjas have been refining chakra and practicing physical skills for a long time, and Moonlight Hayate is good at holding his breath and hiding.

Can this time be extended?

I don't know if it can be successful, but medicine... isn't it about changing one's destiny against the will of heaven?

Gotta give it a try.

For himself, for his lover, for everyone who has him in their hearts.

Turning the device, the thin needle popped out, and I aimed it at the top of Hayate's heart and injected it.

...

Time passed by second by second.

The bloody wounds began to heal quickly.

However, the heart rate on the ECG monitor was still zero.

We have come to this point, how can we give up?

In this case...

I looked at the first responder beside me,

"Prepare 200 joules for defibrillation! Use electricity to activate his heart!"

"Yes!"

"Moonlight Gale, wake up!"

...

-

Emergency room exit.

"Xi Yan?"

"Your boyfriend's physical condition has just stabilized, but he still needs to be monitored. His chakra is exhausted, and Senior Xizi is helping him with subsequent recovery."

I opened the door and said to the ANBU kneeling on the ground.

"Thank you." She cried out of breath.

In addition to her and Kakashi, there were other jounin class members and the Sandaime-sama waiting outside the door.

As it happens, I have something to report.

"Kakashi, do you remember the logistics mission you took me on last time?" I asked him.

He reached out and wiped the blood from my face.

"Remember, what happened?"

"Who did Hayate get injured that day?" I asked.

"The other party is pretending very well. We have suspects, but we are not sure." Shiranui Genma interjected, "What did you find?"

"Comparing his injury this time with the injury to his chest last time, from my point of view... it can be said that they were caused by the same person."

"Are you sure?" The atmosphere instantly became serious.

Being stared at by a group of Jonin and the Hokage, I calmed myself down, suppressed my headache, and started to explain.

"I also stitched up his injury last time. I remember it very clearly. The mission scroll said it was injured by a cone."

"Excuse me, did you see it clearly at that time? I mean... that weapon."

"I didn't see it clearly. The opponent's appearance and retreat were too sudden. We don't have much chakra left, so we can say...we are defenseless."

The person who spoke was another special commander whom I had met in the last mission and seemed to have the same name.

"That's it. It can be seen from the comparison of the two wounds... I don't know what you ninjas would say..."

I gestured with my hands, "That move, like Kakashi's Raikiri, uses attribute chakra to harden the hand to achieve lethality. It seems to be the culprit of Hayate being severely injured twice in a row."

There was a discussion around.

I continued, "This time the wound is more serious than the last time. But regardless of the wound surface, location or depth, the pattern is the same."

"What's the pattern?"

Kakashi seemed to see that I was a little powerless, so he stood up and let me lean on him.

I began to recall carefully.

"umm... Twice in a row, the opponent's dominant hand is the right hand. The wound was from the lower right to the upper left side of the chest, from shallow to deep, hitting the heart directly."

"Then, wounds caused by chakra of different attributes will leave different traces. Just like wounds caused by chakra of the thunder attribute, the tissue at the injured area will be instantly carbonized to a certain extent; if it is the fire attribute, it will be burned. Traces...wait..."

I took a deep breath and said, "There are only a few attributes of chakra. Based on the traces of Hayate's wounds, it can be determined that the opponent used wind attribute chakra."

"Finally, judging from the shape of the indentation of the wound, the weapon is more like..."

I raised my left hand and brought my thumb, index finger, and middle finger together to form a cone-like movement. "It's better to say that this gesture, coupled with the wind attribute chakra, forms a sharp blade. It's similar to the principle of Raikiri." .”

"The above is my deduction."

When I finally finished speaking, my voice became hoarse.

"As expected, it's Ma Ji from Sand Hidden."

"He is still the leading jounin of Sagakure this time."

"It seems that the village's defense strategy needs to be revised immediately."

...

The Jonin were discussing something. They seemed to have suspicions about a certain ninja from another village.

I smiled at Hokage-sama, and before I could say goodbye, I was picked up by the silver-haired jounin.

"It's time to go back and rest. You're still running a fever."

He seemed...a little unhappy.
