Although he had instruments and medical methods that shouldn't exist in this era.
This wasn't a method to bring the dead back to life, so when Hatake Satoru took Uchiha Itachi away, he said he hoped he wasn't dead yet.
Most Ninjutsu and abilities are actually about saving people who are on the brink of death.
With an extremely high repair speed, they quickly heal human wounds and recover from fatal injuries.
Simply put, it's about bringing people back to life who are about to die but haven't yet.
However, true resurrection is very difficult, and even then, it's not something ordinary people can achieve.
Hatake Satoru changed into a plain black shirt, putting the blood-stained jacket and clothes in the sink.
Blood stains are hard to wash out if left for too long. Although black clothes absorb color, Hatake Satoru still cared about getting blood on his clothes.
A splashing sound filled the air as water gradually filled the sink, soaking the black clothes.
Soon, faint red blood stains appeared in the clear water, coloring it.
Hatake Satoru paused for a moment, then turned off the faucet with his hand.
At the same time, a clear "beep" sound came from the door. The small blue light on the door flashed, and the door opened automatically.
Hozuki Mangetsu was holding something that looked like artificial bones. He seemed to be looking for something, and in his other hand, he held a list.
"Ugh?! Why are you here, teacher!"
As Hozuki Mangetsu walked in, he almost dropped what he was holding when he saw Hatake Satoru. He quickly used his other hand to support it and then let out a long sigh.
"Didn't you just bring back the injured person? I thought you'd be waiting over there."
Hozuki Mangetsu said, pulling open a cabinet next to him.
That cabinet was semi-transparent, and inside were neatly arranged nails and needles. However, these nails and needles weren't for hanging things on walls.
They were specifically for fixing human bones, preventing dislocation, and aiding growth.
The needles and thread were also used for stitching wounds. Deep inside the cabinet, you could even feel a large bottle of alcohol.
After Hatake Satoru put that large bottle of alcohol in there, Sasori and Hozuki Mangetsu were silent for a long time.
"Although we understand all these things, with alcohol, a small bottle would be enough here."
Sasori hesitated for a moment and said to Hatake Satoru.
"Y-yes! And most of us don't really use it..."
"Leaving such a large bottle here, it always feels like you might set this place on fire someday."
Hozuki Mangetsu shifted his gaze, deliberately looking away from Hatake Satoru's face. His expression clearly conveyed the thought that Hatake Satoru might actually set this place on fire on a whim one day.
"Emergency backup."
Hatake Satoru raised an eyebrow at that moment, teleported behind the two of them, and kicked each of them in the backside.
Hatake Satoru shook his head helplessly. Even if he were going to act on his whims, he wasn't a patient who escaped from a mental hospital. He understood things like whether to burn something or not.
Had these two been with him for too long, their brains had gone bad too?
"No~ I came back to change because I got blood on me and it felt dirty."
Hatake Satoru waved his hands at Hozuki Mangetsu and then walked over to help him take out the large bottle of alcohol.
Seeing that Hozuki Mangetsu's hands were already full, he casually took down the sealed nails stacked on top of the bones.
Hozuki Mangetsu glanced at the clothes soaking in the sink. The once clear water had turned dark red.
Hozuki Mangetsu looked thoughtfully at Hatake Satoru, who was taking his things.
Hatake Satoru didn't actually have a cleanliness obsession, but it was rare to see his clothes get dirty.
If his clothes got dirty, it basically meant he was very anxious and couldn't maintain the Limitless jutsu, which is why blood got on him.
Although his facial expression was the same as usual, his calm appearance while changing his clothes, without any signs of worry, was also typical for him.
But still, he seemed to care about that person.
Due to the blood and injuries, Hozuki Mangetsu only glanced at the man surrounded by equipment.
He felt a bit familiar, but also like he hadn't seen him before.
Hozuki Mangetsu thought for a moment but couldn't come up with a definite answer.
"Were you sent to find something?"
Hatake Satoru's voice sounded from the side, pulling Hozuki Mangetsu out of his thoughts.
Hatake Satoru's expression was not as serious and composed as it was in the research lab. Instead, he had a smiling face.
"Mm... yes."
Hozuki Mangetsu seemed a bit dazed and paused, blinking before answering.
After answering, Hozuki Mangetsu guiltily glanced at Hatake Satoru beside him. He didn't deliberately try to guess Hatake Satoru's thoughts.
But he figured that even if Hatake Satoru was good at reading people, he didn't actually have mind-reading abilities, so he probably didn't know what he was thinking.
Hatake Satoru's gaze wasn't on Hozuki Mangetsu. Carrying the alcohol and nails, he walked with Hozuki Mangetsu towards the research lab.
Hozuki Mangetsu kept rubbing the list paper with his fingers, seeming absent-minded, or rather, feeling guilty.
The list paper made a rustling sound between their brief silence, which was somewhat annoying.
"If you have something to say, just say it—are you going to fold that paper to shreds?"
The rustling sound from the list paper quickly quieted down, but Hozuki Mangetsu didn't continue speaking.
For a moment, an unspeakable awkwardness filled the air.
It was too quiet.
Hatake Satoru pursed his lips, thinking with slight annoyance.
He shouldn't have said that to him. The atmosphere suddenly felt even more awkward.
Hatake Satoru looked at the incandescent light beside him. He didn't know when it started, but a small moth had been flitting around a light.
You know, in an underground environment like this, it's rare to find such naturally occurring living things.
Hozuki Mangetsu seemed to have spent a long time preparing himself. Finally, he spoke hesitantly,
"It's nothing really... it's just that the person you brought back is quite seriously injured..."
