Hokage: Let Suffering Never Fly

Chapter 96
Gaia is heading towards the interior of the Kingdom of Rain, but it's not that he's going the wrong way.

It's because that's where the ninja world's demigod, Sanshouyu Hanzo, lives.

He still has one thing to confirm with the other party.

About a companion he once met when living in the Land of Rain, a wandering samurai from the Land of Iron...Tasoko Ibuki.

After Gaia was taken away by the Konoha ninjas, Tadō Ibuki was taken away by the rain ninjas. Now three years later, Gaia finally has the confidence to ask the ninja demigods about his whereabouts.

……

"You're awake! The operation was a success! Congratulations, you are already an incomplete person!" As soon as Taso Ibuki opened his eyes, he saw a boy speaking to him incomprehensible.

Operation?Does that seem to be some kind of treatment method that has only recently emerged?I heard that you can use a knife to cut open a person's stomach, and then sew it up... After all the cuts, can this person still live?

As a samurai of the Iron Country, Tadō Ibuki naturally knew the consequences of cutting someone open with a knife...flesh and blood flying everywhere, it would be nice if he didn't die on the spot, how could he still expect to survive?

wait?Incomplete person?

Only then did Tadokoro Ibuki think of what the other party said. He moved very quickly and subconsciously touched his own area. When he found that it was still there, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey! What are you thinking! I just cut off your already inflamed appendix!"

"I'm a serious unlicensed doctor, how could I do such a strange thing!"

What is the appendix?
Tadō Ibuki did not answer, but looked at the thin boy in front of him warily. He slowly stood up and found that he was in a dilapidated cabin.

He came to the Country of Rain actually to hunt down a wanted criminal.

This man was a samurai, but because of money, he swung his sword at civilians... causing dozens of casualties, and was wanted by the Iron Kingdom.

He chased him from the Kingdom of Iron to the Kingdom of Rain just to hunt him down.

I remember... I stabbed the opponent's heart with a broken sword at the last moment, and I was seriously injured in the battle with him, and even my organs were ruptured. With that kind of injury, I actually survived?Moreover, I didn't feel any discomfort at all.

"Hey, could it be that I saved a mute?" Seeing that he was silent, the boy on the other side continued to speak, but his tone was full of sarcasm.

saved me?Taso Ibuki immediately understood why he was still alive.

With the kind of injury before, I was sure to die. If I survived, I must have been treated by others.

But, what means can be used to achieve this?
"Thank you!" Taso Ibuki thanked him.

"That's it?" The other party seemed dissatisfied with his answer.

Taso Ibuki immediately understood that the other party wanted a reward!
He groped around for a while, and found that the little money that should have been in his pocket was gone.

He turned his head to look at the young man in front of him, who knew that the other party said with disdain, "That money is not enough!"

Okay... just think of it as the deposit he received in advance.

It's just that he really can't bring out anything else. The only valuable thing is the saber I carry with me, but that saber belongs to me... Where is my saber?No way?
That's me... Forget it, I managed to survive, and I'll treat it as his consultation fee.

But the thin young man on the opposite side smiled and said: "The knife is broken, it's not worth a few dollars, it's not enough!"

"You and I……"

"I have no money...and I have nothing for you."

"After I return to the Iron Country, I will bring the rest of the consultation fee."

"On my honor as a warrior..."

"That's all right, all right, honor is worth a lot, why don't you make a written statement." The young man waved his hand, apparently not caring about his promise.

I had to swear by the honor of a samurai, but the other party turned out to be... Also, in this world, samurai have been extremely marginalized because of the existence of ninjas, and no one cares about the honor of a down-and-out samurai.

"If you don't have money, then find another way."

"For example, how about being my bodyguard for a year?"

"Oh, I haven't introduced myself yet."

"My name is Gaia. I am an ordinary doctor who likes to treat illnesses, save lives, and be kind to others."

……

Tadō Ibuki accepted the conditions proposed by Gaia.

As compensation for saving him, he had to work as a bodyguard for Gaia for a year. Although he was a samurai, his fighting ability was no worse than that of a chuunin among ninjas.

Hire yourself as a bodyguard, not to mention walking sideways in the border area of ​​the country of rain, but as long as you don't provoke any big shots, you can basically guarantee Gaia's safety.

Later, Taso Ibuki saw how Gaia healed diseases and saved people.

That kind of miraculous secret technique can not only treat some minor diseases, but even connect people's severed limbs.

I can survive, perhaps because of the other party's special ability.

Perhaps, this is the legendary medical ninjutsu?

There are no ninjas in the Iron Kingdom where he lives. Although samurai can also use chakra, their development of chakra and ninjutsu is far inferior to that of ninjas.

Therefore, Tadō Ibuki had never seen medical ninjutsu, but he just took it for granted that this was that kind of magical ninjutsu.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly small child is actually a ninja who has mastered medical ninjutsu!
After tossing and turning, the two finally settled down in a remote gathering place in the Land of Rain, and even opened a small clinic... and finally settled down.

It's just that my employer seems to have some very strange hobbies.

For example, let yourself practice swordsmanship in an open space for a fixed hour a day.

He didn't ask to learn from himself, he just watched... Then, one day, Gaia picked up his sword.

He learned every sword move of his!
Taso Ibuki has never seen anyone with such talent in swordsmanship!
He was sure that Gaia had never touched a sword, let alone swordsmanship.

But that day, the swordsmanship he used was exactly the same as his own, as if he was a disciple taught by the same teacher.

"You don't understand the value of goldfinger! You can't learn it!" Once, Tadokoro Ibuki asked Gaia how he could learn his swordsmanship just by looking at it, and Gaia replied.

Goldfinger?Is it some kind of blood inheritance limit with strong learning ability?

He didn't delve into it because it wasn't his place to ask.

As a bodyguard, you only need to ensure the safety of your employer.

Taso Ibuki didn't do anything extra, just stayed by Gaia's side until the one-year period came.

"You can go." Gaia said to Tianso Yibuki.

According to the agreement, Tadō Ibuki has paid his medical fees and will never owe Gaia anything from now on.

However, Tadō Ibuki recalled what Gaia had done this year, but she couldn't leave with peace of mind.

In this troubled world, is there any doctor who would treat the poor for free like Gaia?

Although Gaia's mind is not absolutely pure, there is no doubt that he is a rare good person!

He didn't want Gaia to die in this unbearable troubled world one day.

In the past year, they have encountered many crises, and he also knows that Gaia has also shown a certain strength.

But it is not enough to live stably in this troubled world.

Therefore, he wanted to wait a little longer until Gaia grew up a little, or at least became stronger than him, before he could leave with peace of mind.
