Chp-88: I’ll Be Back Again

"Lady Tsunade, you don't want to see the Konoha injured outside dying in vain, do you?"

"Lady Tsunade, you are Konoha's renowned medical expert. You don't want that title to be scorned by countless people, do you?"

"Your deceased boyfriend, Dan Katō, and your brother, Nawaki... Lady Tsunade, you don't want them to feel disappointed in you from the Pure Land, do you?"

"Lady Tsunade, you don't want..."

Satoru directly launched into a "Lady Tsunade, and you don't want..." series of rhetoric, one after another, like a barrage of persuasive words.

Tsunade's expression shifted from initial cold rejection to slight hesitation, deep struggle, and finally, compliance.

Satoru's string of "You don't want..." phrases seemed like sugar-coated bullets, directly hitting Tsunade's softest inner core, gradually breaking down her defences.

"Wow, Satoru is amazing!" Shizune couldn't help but marvel in her heart. She had witnessed Tsunade's transformation; Satoru's few words had managed to make Tsunade lower her guard.

"Alright, young Hyuga, I'll let you try," Tsunade said reluctantly.

Then she turned slightly cold, glaring at Satoru.

"But... how do you know about my private affairs so clearly?"

Hemophobia aside, as it had already spread around the camp, but her brother Nawaki and her boyfriend Dan Katō, she had never mentioned to anyone. How did Satoru know so much?

"Uh... Lord Orochimaru told me. He's actually been very concerned about your hemophobia," Satoru decided to attribute it to Orochimaru.

There was no other choice; Orochimaru was the most suitable candidate. Even if Tsunade asked him, he would take the blame.

"Fine," Tsunade's expression softened a bit, yawning.

"Just make it quick; I need to sleep. And it won't involve blood, right?"

Tsunade eyed Satoru suspiciously.

Uh...

Satoru swallowed.

"I'll be very gentle. There shouldn't be any blood."

"That's good."

Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as there was no blood, her hemophobia shouldn't act up, and the treatment wouldn't be ruined.

Satoru took a deep breath, his eyes subtly glancing at Shizune, who seemed intent on staying.

Troublesome.

He inwardly complained but kept his expression serious.

After all, hemophobia is a psychological condition. In his past life, Satoru, apart from majoring in science, had a keen interest in psychology.

He couldn't claim expertise but had self-studied and obtained a certification as a psychological therapist. Of course, practising with it wasn't very practical.

However, it was quite useful for Tsunade's current situation. The ninja world had no concept of psychological health education!

Considering that five or six-year-olds were forced onto the battlefield, the mental health issues in the ninja world must be severe!

Various twisted values and brainwashing. When Satoru first crossed over, it took him a great deal of effort to adapt.

Satoru began guiding Tsunade with words, using his knowledge of psychology for mental guidance and treatment.

The effect was surprisingly good.

Every word seemed to have a special magic, becoming long tendrils that reached into Tsunade's deep psyche, soothing her tired body and comforting her fragile soul.

Before long, light snores filled the air.

Tsunade was asleep.

Shizune, beside them, was utterly shocked.

When she realized Satoru's treatment was effective, she hurriedly began taking notes of every step he took. For a medical ninja, this was invaluable.

Satoru's approach seemed to open a new door in her mind, revealing an entirely new world of medical practice.

Was this truly a form of medical treatment?

We should not use the Yang Release chakra for physical stimulation but rather use gentle words to guide and comfort the patient's mind.

So incredible.

Shizune's eyes shone with excitement, her breathing quickening slightly.

Satoru noticed her actions but didn't mind. If Shizune could make significant progress in psychology, it would greatly benefit the medical system of the ninja world.

From Satoru's 21st-century perspective, the current ninja world's development was too distorted, especially the medical system.

Most of it was developed for combat, focusing on physical recovery. Little to no research was done on mental health.

This was likely why so many Uchiha members had issues!

Of course, his success in treating Tsunade's hemophobia wasn't just due to his psychological knowledge; his electromagnetic abilities played a significant role.

While guiding her with words, Satoru also subtly adjusted Tsunade's brain's magnetic field, particularly the deep limbic system, which stored many emotional memories, including trauma. Adjusting this area could significantly ease Tsunade's guilt and anxiety.

Satoru signalled to Shizune with a glance.

"Come help me."

Shizune snapped out of her thoughts.

"Oh!" She hurried over to assist Satoru in moving the sleeping Tsunade.

Perhaps because she was deeply asleep, Tsunade didn't react to her surroundings. As they moved her, the coat draped over her shoulders slid off, revealing a large expanse of fair skin.

The white, large, and soft area seemed unable to stay confined within the thin fabric, longing for the freedom of the open air.

During the process of moving her to bed, it swayed back and forth, showcasing its impressive elasticity.

Satoru silently swallowed.

Fortunately, Shizune didn't notice anything amiss. With Tsunade's hemophobia improving and a new medical approach discovered, she felt immense gratitude towards Satoru, not noticing his reaction.

Satoru couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

In his past life, he had seen many Tsunade-related... materials.

He thought he was familiar with her physique, but now he realized he had underestimated it.

The real thing was quite different from the... materials.

Those Tsunade, something prison, something Jiraiya, something Naruto's holiday...

Low-grade!

Satoru couldn't help but click his tongue.

Once Shizune covered Tsunade with a blanket, Satoru reluctantly moved his gaze away from her.

Consider this my payment for treating your hemophobia.

He smirked.

Shizune wiped the sweat from her forehead and smiled at Satoru.

"Satoru, thank you so much. It seems Lady Tsunade's hemophobia has improved significantly."

"Who would have thought that besides being powerful, you have such profound medical knowledge."

"Hmm."

Satoru thought for a moment and said,

"This is just the first treatment. Whether it's effective, we'll see. After Lady Tsunade wakes up, ask her. If it's possible, I can come back for a few more sessions."

"Really?"

Shizune was thrilled.

"Satoru, that would be wonderful."

Having Satoru treat her a few more times would speed up Tsunade's recovery and allow Shizune to learn more about this incredible treatment method.

"To have a ninja like you is truly a blessing for the village," Shizune couldn't help but exclaim.
