"I'm not doing any paperwork. I'm just sorting the work they'll be doing. There's no way I'm letting them get away with this. I finally have the time to further refine my medical jutsu, and I'm going to make the most of it," Mitsuru said with a devilish smile.
All the other chief medical ninja suddenly felt a chill, a shiver running down their spines.
"Sensei, now that I've become a general practitioner, what should I do next?" Kaida asked.
"Normally, any ninja who becomes a chief medical ninja would continue treating patients for several years while training daily in their free time. After a few years of training, they'd take an exam to become a specialist or even a special specialist in fields like mental trauma, limb attachment, and more. But since you only have two years to learn medical jutsu, let's focus on training for now. I've got three months of free time, so for the next three months, you'll be following me and learning directly from me," Mitsuru said.
"Okay, sensei," Kaida agreed.
"Now that you've become a general practitioner, your real training begins. Follow me," Mitsuru said, leaving her office.
Kaida followed her in silence. After moving to the opposite section of the hospital, they arrived at a room adjacent to the morgue. Several human bodies lay on tables, and Kaida was unsure why they had come here all of a sudden.
"Sensei, why are we here?" Kaida asked.
"Up until now, you've been practicing your jutsu on animals, but you're not going to be using these jutsu on animals, are you?" Mitsuru replied.
Kaida understood that he was here to learn about the human body and improve his medical knowledge. It wasn't strange, considering that even in his previous world, people donated their bodies to hospitals to help new doctors learn.

"Are you ready?" Mitsuru asked.
"Yes, sensei," Kaida said, walking over to where Mitsuru stood in front of a table. Mitsuru nodded and removed the white cloth covering the body.
Kaida was shocked. The body wasn't that of a normal civilian; it bore many cuts, and its face looked especially menacing. Seeing Kaida focus on the scars, Mitsuru explained, "This was the body of a bandit."
There was no way this bandit had donated his body to Konoha, so it seemed the bodies Team 13 brought back from missions were put to use this way. After thinking for a while, Kaida saw nothing wrong with it. These people hadn't done any good while alive, so if their bodies could be of use after death, it wasn't a bad thing.
Seeing that Kaida was more at ease, Mitsuru smiled and said, "Today, I'm just going to teach you the basics of human anatomy from the outside. It should take about an hour. Afterward, go learn as much as you can about human anatomy. Starting tomorrow, we'll go into the internal structures."
"Sensei, can I use shadow clones in the library?" Kaida asked.
"That's not a big deal. Just tell them I've given you permission. If anyone has a problem, they can come directly to me," Mitsuru said.
Kaida nodded with a smile, and then Mitsuru began teaching about various joints in the human body, how they move, which muscles are delicate and which are powerful, and where the most sensitive areas are—injuries to those areas would require extra care.
After an hour, Kaida headed to the library. He informed the librarian that Mitsuru had given him permission to use shadow clones, and naturally, there were no issues with that.
Kaida went to the anatomy section of the library and created 90 shadow clones. Due to using so many resources daily, his spiritual power was growing rapidly, and with it, his chakra reserves. He could now easily make 95 shadow clones, so creating 90 was no problem. However, since he hadn't taken a soldier pill, he did feel weak after using nearly 90% of his chakra. But it was worth it.
The 90 shadow clones each grabbed a book, some even choosing from other sections that were remotely related to anatomy. Even though the hospital library had many books, there weren't 90 books purely on anatomy.
For hours, the clones continued reading. Once they felt they had a satisfactory understanding, they dispersed, transferring all their memories and knowledge to Kaida.
Thanking himself for using resources that had boosted his mental powers, Kaida processed the information. When almost all his clones had dispersed, he created five more and went to a room in the library where medical ninja could discuss their findings. He booked the room for himself, and all six of them—Kaida and his five clones—began discussing the knowledge they had gained about anatomy, even making notes.
By 4 PM, Kaida had a solid understanding of anatomy. He could point to any part of the human body and explain its name and function. Satisfied with his progress, he left for the Uchiha compound.
He went straight to his house and met with Shisui.
"Hello, brother," Kaida greeted.
"You've got something to ask, don't you?" Shisui asked, looking at Kaida.
"Why do you say that?" Kaida asked, a little surprised.
"You've been living here for over a month. Don't you think if I didn't know you by now, I'd be unqualified to be a Jonin? The only time you come straight to me after getting back from the hospital is when you have something to ask," Shisui said.
