The medical department headquarters building has a heavy foundation and straight upward bevels. The stone used in the construction is mainly white. From a distance, it looks like a magnificent pyramid, surrounded by tall white walls.

Department areas are distinguished from the rest of the department.

After entering the headquarters building, Sakura habitually came to the elevator door leading to the underground area, took out the access card to unlock it, and headed to the underground area of ​​the medical department headquarters.

This white pyramid-shaped medical headquarters building has eight floors above ground and five floors underground.

The first five floors of the eight floors above ground are the hospital area, and the last three floors are the office and administrative areas.

The five underground floors are warehouses and research areas.

It has been almost two years since Sakura came to the Kingdom of Demons and joined the military.

Although she occasionally works as a guest doctor on the above-ground floors to accumulate experience in the implementation of medical ninjutsu, more often than not, Sakura will go to the underground research area to work, responsible for the research and development of medicines and medical props.

For example, the medical charms that are gradually becoming popular among the military in the Kingdom of Demons were developed in the underground research area of ​​this building.

With dozens of experts in this field invested and a steady supply of funds and materials, the research and development of medical amulets has made breakthrough progress in the past few years.

As the earliest proposer of medical talismans, Sakura also joined the project team that developed medical talismans and served as the leader of one of the groups. There are more than a dozen workers under her. In terms of ability, at this age

He is already considered a medical ninja with outstanding qualifications and is highly valued by the senior officials of the medical department.

After all, everyone knows that the medical department currently does not have a minister, only Deputy Minister Nohara.

And Deputy Minister Nohara has been invisible in the medical department all year long, and his work content is completely confidential. He only knows that he has direct contact with the top military officials. Compared with the deputy minister of the medical department, he is more like a last resort.

He was forcibly placed as a stand-in in the medical department by high-ranking military officials.

Under this situation, the medical department urgently needs a leading commander-in-chief who can sit in the medical department all year round.

Young medical ninjas like Sakura, who have outstanding talents in the medical field and are hard-working, are the most concerned by senior officials. Maybe they will be the direct leaders of the medical department in the future?

"Sakura, you're here."

Entering the experimental workshop of the medical talisman, many medical ninjas responsible for the medical talisman project have already started working.

Among them, a familiar figure walked over, it was Haruka Hanami. She came to Sakura and said hello with a smile.

"Good morning, Hanami, you came a little early today."

Sakura skillfully put on her white coat and dust-proof gloves, and while talking to Hanami Haruka, she walked directly to the workbench.

The research project of medical talismans is very cumbersome, not only requiring the use of medical ninjutsu, but also involving equally complex and sophisticated sealing techniques.

The special paper that can accommodate medical procedures seems to require the assistance of experts in the fields of materials and manufacturing.

To put it simply, if you just invest in medical ninjas, no matter how much money, energy and time you invest, it will be difficult to produce qualified medical talismans, let alone later factory assembly line production, which is simply impossible.

.

"Because the work here is almost completed, I think it won't be long before the medical charms can be put into the factory for assembly line production."

Hanajian Yao narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled. It seemed that the completion of the medical charm made her feel very happy.

She also works in the project team that develops medical talismans, but unlike Sakura, she only works part-time. In Sakura's team, she is responsible for providing assistance to all team members.

This kind of work tests the comprehensive quality of the medical ninja. Being able to do these things in an orderly manner without making any mistakes is enough to prove Hanami Haruka's excellence in the medical field.

"Yes, that way, the sacrifice rate of ninjas from various countries on missions will be greatly reduced, allowing more people to survive."

Sakura seems to be in a good mood.

As a medical ninja, she doesn't like fighting, nor does she like death.

But such a naive idea is impossible to realize.

Ninja is a fighting profession. Once the battle is lost, ninjas from all over the world will have trouble even supporting themselves.

Sakura, who is familiar with history, knows very well that in times of peace, daimyo from various countries will reduce military expenditures on their own country's ninja villages, in order not to raise too many idle ninjas. As a result, during the past peace period, each village had to lay off employees.

, reduce the number of active ninjas.

If it weren't for the emergence of a hegemonic military power like the Demon Country, such a scene would definitely happen again, as if it were an inevitable reincarnation.

Therefore, since the battle of ninjas cannot be eliminated, as a medical ninja, we only need to reduce the sacrifice rate of ninjas.

The medical talisman that the Kingdom of Ghosts is now about to complete can solve this problem.

Seeing the somewhat happy Sakura, Hanami Haruka hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I think that after the medical charms are produced on the assembly line, they may not be sold to ninja villages in various countries."

"Um?"

Sakura was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Hanami Haruka meant.

Hanami Haruka thought for a while and continued: "The atmosphere in the military this year is a little weirder than in previous years. I also heard from Cai that even if medical charms can be mass-produced, they will be popularized within the Kingdom of Ghosts. As for what

When the time comes to flow to other countries, it depends on the wishes of the military leaders."

After all, once this kind of thing flows into other countries, although it will not directly increase the enemy's combat effectiveness, it can greatly enhance the sustained combat capabilities of each country.

This is not a good thing for the country of ghosts, which is now surrounded by enemies.

Sakura's expression fell silent, and she also thought of the key.

"That's right. I've already expected this kind of thing."

Sakura smiled, but it seemed a bit forced.

"Don't worry, Sakura. The top management won't hold on to something like this that can bring fame and profit for too long. Maybe it will be opened to villages in other countries next year."

Hanami Haruka comforted Sakura, making her expression calm down a little.

"Speaking of which, Sakura was the first to come up with the medical talisman. How did you come up with it at that time?"

Hanami Haruka asked curiously.

Although now that I think about it, the idea of ​​a medical talisman doesn't seem that big of a deal, but before Sakura, none of the medical ninjas seemed to have thought about it.

Using spells as carriers, they are basically related to seals and barriers, or they are the popular detonating charms, or the exorcism charms used by witches.

Hearing Hanami Haruka ask this, Sakura looked quite embarrassed.

She suddenly thought that her original intention of making the medical talisman was so that one day she could use her own power to help Zuosuke even if she was not by his side... So she came up with the idea of ​​​​the medical talisman and tried to make a simple version.

Not to make any contribution to the medical field, nor to have a great idea like saving more people.

Just because of her youth and ignorance, the girl had an erotic dream that she could not touch.

That's all.

Thinking of this, Sakura suddenly felt a little melancholy.

Speaking of which, I haven't heard from Zuosuke for a long time.

I don’t know how the other person is doing now.

Seemingly seeing that Sakura was a little depressed, Hanami Haruka suddenly remembered something and said to Sakura: "Speaking of which, I heard an interesting rumor. Sakura, do you want to know? It's related to Uchiha Sasuke.

of."

"Zosuke?" Sakura turned her head in surprise, and then her face became excited. She took a step forward, grabbed Hanami Haruka's shoulders with both hands, making her unable to retreat, and asked eagerly: "Hanami, what do you know?"

"Uh..." I didn't expect Sakura to be so excited. Hanami Haruka coughed, looked directly into Sakura's eyes and said, "I don't know if it's true or not. In the past two days, there seems to be a crazy rumor outside.

News. That is Uchiha Sasuke, who seems to have killed Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas."

"What? Zuozhu him..."

This news shocked Sakura. She opened her mouth and couldn't close it for a long time.

She is no longer a rookie in the ninja school and genin period. Regarding the name of sannin, she knows very well what kind of ninja they are.

Especially when she was in Konoha, she even became a disciple of one of them, knowing full well how powerful the ninja with this title was.

And the Zuosuke she cared about actually killed one of them?

"Well, that's right." Hanajian Haruka nodded, and then said: "Although I don't know whether it is true or not, it seems to be so popular outside."

"What happened after that? Where did Sasuke go after that? Is there any news about him? Did Konoha launch an operation against him?"

Sakura asked nervously.

"I don't know about this. I haven't heard of any action against Uchiha Sasuke in Konoha."

Hanamiyuan shook his head and said he didn't know.

Her impression of Uchiha Sasuke was limited to the Chuunin exam four years ago, and she felt that he was a handsome and talented ninja.

It's a pity that she already has someone she likes. Otherwise, such a young man with good looks, strength, and a long family background would be a good candidate for mate.

"Is that so? Sorry, Hanami, I'm a little too excited."

Sakura let out a breath, let go of Hanami Haruka's shoulders, took a step back, and apologized.

"It doesn't matter, you are also concerned about it. But don't worry, what I heard are just rumors. I don't know whether the things are true or not. If you want to know the whole content, you can go to the intelligence office after your work in the afternoon

Let’s ask the Ministry of Information. With such a big thing happening, I believe those in the Intelligence Ministry must know more.”

"Yes, the Intelligence Department must know more about Zuosuke."

Sakura also came over suddenly.

Only then did he remember that he was backed by a powerful country like the Kingdom of Ghosts.
