It was because he had the same zeal and drive when he first went into surgery when he was young and got himself an automail. In the workshop, the air was filled with the aroma of freshly oiled metal and the soft clinking of tools. Shisui stood beside his father, who looked both intrigued and uncertain about the prospect of a new automail. Winry, with her signature blue bandana and no-nonsense attitude, approached them with a warm smile.
"You are back earlier than I expected." Winry said.
"What can I say, I just wanted fast resolution." Shisui said, his voice sounding a little excited. Winry turned and looked at his father who was the on the wheelchair.
"Hello, Mr. Uchiha. I've heard a lot about you.I'm Winry Rockbell, and I'm excited to help you get back on your feet, quite literally!"
"Thank you, Miss Winry. I appreciate the offer, but I'm not sure if I can handle something like automail as Shisui here had explained me earlier."
"That's great. Then I wouldn't need to explain too much. My automail is top-notch, built with precision and care. Plus, I've got some extra attachments that I think you'd love. With these, you'll have the edge you need to reclaim your former strength and abilities." Winry said while winking with one eye. This intrigued both Shisui and his father, because from what Ed had told him, his leg was just as normal like any other natural leg, so what was she talking about?
"Extra attachments, you say?"
"Oh, absolutely! For Jonin like you who've seen it all, I've designed a set of enhanced features. There's a retractable kunai launcher hidden within the automail's heel which will be faster than normal person throwing it. You'll be able to surprise enemies with swift and precise strikes." Winry said as she brought out the designs and placed it on the table.
Winry had already done her research and thus the designs were ready. His father had gone from hopeful to an enthusiastic person now.
"I thought you'd like that one! But wait, there's more. We can integrate a chakra flow regulator directly into the automail. This will allow you to channel your chakra more efficiently, giving you greater control over your jutsu." Winry said.
Over the past few days, Hiruzen had some dead bodies which were being operated by Pinako, Winry and even Edward. They wanted to see what this chakra was and with the help of magic they were able to do some indepth study of this chakra.
Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Since they were going to open a shop in a world which had chakra they needed to tackle the problem and finally came up with the solution of 'chakra flow generator. Even Aoto helped them with a bit of his technical knowledge.
Shisui was now super excited. He could finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.
"I see the potential in that. But I must admit, I'm still worried about the transition to automail." He had been a jonin for a long time and though he might not be a medical ninja, he for sure that such an advanced thing would require time to get adapted.
"It's natural to feel that way. But trust me, once you get used to it, you'll find it's more than just a replacement. It becomes a part of you. And I'll be here to provide any support and adjustments you might need." Winry said with confidence and pride. She was one of the best in this field and she knew it.
His father looked at Shisui who had anticipation in his eyes and really wanted him to take the automail. His father was still young and felt like he had a lot more years in the field again. His father didn't want to disappoint Shisui at this point because he didn't want to be a burden to him.
He had already thought of paying him back once he was in the field and start earning money.
"Well, if you both believe in this, then I'll give it a try. But promise me, if it gets too much for me, you won't be disappointed." Shisui's father looked at Shisui and said.
"I promise, Father. Your well-being is what matters most." Shisui said. Shsisui trusted Fugaku and Aoto, they wouldn't harm him with such a trivial matter.
"You have my word too. I'll do everything I can to make this transition as smooth as possible. And if everything goes well, in future maintenance I will do more customizations which will help you perform more different moves with it " Winry said. With that said, Shisui talked with Ed for the cost. Since this was the first automail, he gave him cheap but on the promise that he would help them advertise to the village to which Shisui readily agreed.
This whole process would involve surgery and it would be done at night so he would have to wait. Meanwhile, Winry explained Shisui's father of how the whole thing worked and how the surgery would go, with Edward giving his point of view since he too had an automail.

While this was happening in Winry's shop something else was happening in the new shop of Law Manga. A group of orphans were now flooding the shop with cries and exclamations. Since this was the first day of the shop, people were allowed to come in and read freely. There were never a shop dedicated just to comics and manga. This was the first time and thus this thrilled the orphans.
"Hey, have you reached the part where Tanjiro meets Giyu? It's so intense!"
"I just finished that part! The demon attacks were so cool, and Tanjiro's determination is incredible. I can't wait to see how he becomes a Demon Slayer! I bet they could fight a ninja too. Of course not a jonin but a genin."
"But hey, how about "Fullmetal Alchemist"? Is it good?"
"It's more than good. It's amazing! You know how Edward loses his arm and leg and becomes a State Alchemist? Well, his journey to find the Philosopher's Stone and get his limbs back and the body of his brother is mind-blowing!"
