66. The leaf village doctors!!
Reko was now capable of making five shadow clones at a time. The clones were not weak either, their endurance was around fifty percent of Reko's body, meaning it could take hits before getting dispelled.
...
[Shadow clone lvl 41]
- can make five clones
...
The level of his shadow clone increased with his chakra mastery and repeated use of shadow clone jutsu.
At the moment, Reko was capable of making clone with just one fifth of his total chakra, saving the remaining amount to his original.
He believed that as he leveled up, he would be able to make shadow clones with even smaller parts of chakra than one-fifth.
...
[Chakra control 71%]
...
Reko's chakra control had also taken a huge leap. He could not believe that this was only 71% of chakra control.
He had slept whole night peacefully as his chakra was being stored in Steal for another charge, and he successfully acquired a Chunin level charge. By the time he reached 80%, he believed that he would be able to passively keep supplying chakra to steal all the time.
...
[Mystic palm (basic) level 32]
...
The healing jutsu he had learned from Tsunade also leveled up. But he did not get much opportunity to spam Mystic palm unlike his other jutsu, causing it to lag begin.
Though, he was still of a higher skill level than of Sakura. He lacked the necessary resources to practice the jutsu, otherwise, he would have excelled there too.
...
In a large meeting room with a table in the middle and chairs around it.
"She's Momo. This is Yahiko, her husband, and this guy here is Teiro."
Shizune introduced three of the best medical ninja in the leaf village to Reko and Sakura.
Momo appeared to be a beautiful woman in her thirties. Her black hair tied in a ponytail had mix of greys already. Her body was on a curvy side though, good curves on top as well as the bottom.
Her husband, Yahiko, was a normal looking middle aged man. Nothing interesting!
Though, Teiro, the man of quite the age was above average in looks, still single and seemed very happy to have seen Shizune.
Teiro did not look like a middle aged man, but he was almost there, in his early thirties.
"They are all working doctors in the leaf hospital, and you would be assisting them in their respective cases."
Shizune introduced the doctors, the medical shinobi, to Reko and Sakura officialy. It was obvious that the rumours about two young shinobis learning from lady Tsunade had spread in the past week, causing both Reko and Sakura to get the fame, the reason why doctors didn't react much after hearing about their participation.
'There he goes!! Ogling at Momo, even though I mentioned that she is married to Yahiko.'
Shizune noticed Reko ignoring everything else as he subtly took a good look at Momo, checking her out with suspicious eyes.
As Reko and Sakura got to know about the Sainin and her assistant, Shizune and Tsunade also learned about them vice-versa.
One important thing that Shizune noticed was Reko's interest in mature woman, the ones in their thirties and above. He rarely spared a glance to someone his age, and was only interested in older women.
'Does miss Shizune have a crush on Reko? She often seems to be staring at him.'
Sakura on the other hand seemed to be making a story of her own. She had seen Reko and Shizune steal glances at each other, and currently, she was witnessing it once again.
'Well, Reko did sometimes flirt with her. There is an age gap, but nothing a shinobi would mind.'
Sakura recalled Reko talking to Shizune in a flirtatious manner. Her thoughts bordering on the concept of love between a older and younger partener.
"If you had brought one more then it would have been easy for me too."
Teiro, the single doctor sighed as he talked to Shizune directly, feigning sadness. He was talking about how there were only three students to teach and the teachers were three.
Yahiko and Momo were a couple and they preferred to be in a team as they worked. This meant that Teiro would rarely get a chance to get the assistance from the Sainin's student.
"Do not worry, I am more than capable of helping you and her at the same time."
Reko smiled proudly, coming in between Shizune and Teiro talking, as he claimed that he would be able to assist Teiro as well as the others.
In truth, he was not lying. He did have the capital to claim that he could keep assisting two of the medic ninja at the same time as he could make shadow clones.
"Both of us at the same time? Even though you are learning from lady Tsunade, you are underestimating us!"
As if triggered by Reko's claim, Teiro decided to instantly show Reko his place. He did not want to be undermined in front of Shizune, not when he was looking to get together with her.
"I will be working mostly under Shizune but I can still spend the rest of my time assisting you."
Reko replied, claiming the spot under Shizune to himself. Shizune was the top dog of the hospital's doctors both in authority and ninjutsu.
Why would he waste time with others when he could learn directly from her? It was not possible to always be assisting her because of her work as Tsunade's assistant that's why she was introducing them to the three doctors.
But when Shizune was free, he would choose learning from her rather than these three.
"Her? Boy, Shizune is personally tutoring you? No way!"
Teiro seemed surprised that Shizune was still going to tutor Reko.
Wasn't the lessons from Sainin enough? Why would he still be taking their time when he has us doctors assisting.
'Jealousy? He has his eyes on Shizune!!'
Reko looked at Teiro, the look of discomfort on the man was obvious and Reko realised the reason behind it.
"Well... I am handsome, talented, and with a huge chakra reserve. Is that not enough reason?"
Reko replied to Teiro, flexing his lean build muscles in an exaggerated manner, eliciting a laugh from everyone except for Teiro.
