Naruto: You Call This A Medical Ninja?

Chapter 523: Chapter 523: Arriving in the Land of Hot Springs!



Ikawa Tsuna could only sigh helplessly as Reiki left. His parting words had left Tsuna in a bind.

Reiki had casually handed over a group of dangerous Evil God Cult members—people even he had trouble handling—and expected Tsuna to take care of them. It was no small task, considering Reiki's unconventional methods.

"Let me give it a try," Tsuna muttered, steeling himself. "What exactly do you want me to extract from them?"

Reiki, preparing to leave, smiled. "Just ask if they're connected to other branches of the Evil God Cult. I've been working on them for a while, but their faith is strong. Most refused to talk."

As if on cue, one cultist—tears streaming down his face—crawled forward. His voice wavered between desperation and madness.

"I'll tell you where they are!" he shouted. "Just please, no more... no more treatments! Kill me if you want, but stop the treatments!"

The cultist's words earned a knowing chuckle from Reiki. "You see, they're a tough crowd. I'll leave them to you, Tsuna-sama. If they prove useful, maybe they can work for Konoha. If not... send them to Lord Orochimaru."

With that, Reiki disappeared, leaving Tsuna to manage the scene.

Tsuna Takes Charge

Turning to the defeated cultists, Tsuna introduced himself with an air of authority. "I am Iga Tsuna, head of Konoha's interrogation department. You've already met Reiki, one of our special interrogation consultants."

The cultists, visibly trembling, nodded fervently.

"You should know," Tsuna continued, "that we have many ways to make you talk. But your immortality? Reiki already 'cured' that. You're no longer invincible."

The mention of their lost immortality sent shivers down their spines. They knew resistance was futile. Quickly, the cultists began confessing everything they knew about the Evil God Cult, hoping to avoid further "treatments."

Satisfied, Tsuna motioned for his team to take the prisoners back to Konoha. "You're lucky we're willing to give you a second chance," he said. "Cooperate, and you might survive."

Reiki's Journey Continues

Meanwhile, Reiki continued his journey toward the Land of Hot Springs. Along the way, he stuck to his routine—traveling from village to village, offering medical treatment for 100 yen.

Word of his deeds spread quickly among the locals. Stories of the "100-yen medical ninja" began to circulate throughout the Land of Fire, cementing his reputation as a wandering healer with miraculous skills.

A Warm Welcome in the Land of Hot Springs

A month later, Reiki finally arrived in the Land of Hot Springs. Despite having a lead on the Evil God Cult, he decided to indulge in some well-earned relaxation first. After all, the Land of Hot Springs was famous for its luxurious baths, and Reiki had no intention of missing out.

Stopping at a grand hot spring hotel, Reiki was greeted warmly by the staff. "Welcome! Are you here to stay or just enjoy the hot springs?" a cheerful clerk asked.

"Both," Reiki replied, grinning. "Show me your best. I'll be staying for a few days to try everything."

The clerk's eyes lit up. "You've made an excellent choice, sir! We offer over a dozen types of hot springs, each with unique therapeutic effects. Let me arrange the best experience for you."

A Moment of Relaxation

After settling into his room, Reiki couldn't help but admire the comforts of the hotel. The bed was plush, the room was spacious, and the atmosphere was serene—a far cry from the modest villages he'd been visiting.

Lying back, Reiki allowed himself to relax. "Even ninjas need a break," he muttered, closing his eyes.

An Evening Soak

Soon, a knock at the door interrupted his peace.

"Guest, your private hot spring has been prepared," the clerk announced. "It's quite exclusive tonight, with only one other guest sharing the area."

Reiki thanked the clerk, changed into the provided attire, and followed a staff member to the hot spring courtyard marked with the character [Spring].

The tranquil setting took his breath away. A private courtyard surrounded the steaming hot spring pool, lit softly by paper lanterns.

"Guest, do you require any additional services?" the staff member asked, her voice cheerful. "I can share my life story if you'd like."

"Ahem, no thanks," Reiki said, cutting her off with a polite smile. "I'm good with just the hot spring."

The staff member bowed and left, leaving Reiki alone to enjoy the peace and quiet. For now, his focus was on relaxing, but in the back of his mind, he was already planning his next move against the Evil God Cult.

The Calm Before the Storm

As Reiki slipped into the soothing waters, he allowed himself a rare moment of tranquility. Yet, he couldn't shake the thought that this might be the last calm before the storm. The Evil God Cult still loomed, and the mysteries of their connection to senjutsu chakra and the so-called "Evil God" demanded answers.

But for now, he closed his eyes, letting the warmth of the spring wash over him. Tomorrow would bring new challenges, but tonight, he would rest.
