Sakura Is Reincarnated (Dropped)

Chapter 20: Reverse Opening- Level 1

Sakura brought Lee to a secluded laboratory.

She arranged this place in the village earlier to practice her Medical Ninjutsu. To keep it covert.

When Lee looked around, he saw many herbs and medicines. There was a sense of wonder in his eyes.

What was this place? Why did she bring him here?

"Lay your back straight on that." She pointed at a surgical table, causing him to shiver in fright.

"You aren't doing anything illegal, right?" Even Lee knew Medical Ninjutsu wasn't something you can mess around with. One wrong move and any patient could end up needing an amputation.

"You're too worried over nothing. I have a great Mentor who is certified as a Medical Ninja. She said that I was responsible enough to use Medical Ninjutsu on others." She lied without thinking.

"Okay..." Lee accepted her explanation despite it being a little hard to believe. He had full faith in her!

He got onto the surgical table with hesitation and turned to look at Sakura, not knowing her intentions. The fact that she mentioned that he needed a 'Medical Ninja' to learn this secret technique she was going to teach him amazed him.

What kind of Taijutsu needed a Medical Ninja?

"First, I'll need to inspect your health. Can you take off those bandages on your arm?" Even though looking was enough to glean some details for a Medical Goddess like her, being able to properly scan his body would allow her to see them clearer.

Lee hesitated a little before doing as instructed. A white bandage slowly unwrapped off his arm.

He made up his mind.

However, when she saw the redness of his reddened skin, she couldn't help but gasp a little.

What was this condition?

How was he walking around so happy-go-lucky with arms like this? Didn't he have a sense of pain?

"Take off your shoes and show me your ankles." A heaviness appeared in her voice as she spoke to him. Lee was shocked by her tone and felt like a kid who did something wrong as he did as she asked.

He sat up and took off his shoes.

"The weights on your legs as well." Sakura wasn't going to let him keep wearing that on his legs.

"But-"

"Just do as I said." There was a no-nonsense aura around her. She got him to pull up the bottom of his pants. Compared to his arms, they were mutilated to the point it was clearly discernible.

She understood Gai-sensei's reasoning behind training him like this. Although he was hurt, Lee was probably periodically getting healed in order to strengthen his physique. This was the 'Strong Fist'.

The art of letting chakra naturally flow through the body to strengthen it. Refining the body's limits.

Unlike other kinds of Taijutsu, the 'Strong Fist' that Gai-sensei taught was just this kind of technique.

Perhaps one could say Naruto's reckless personality would fit this style perfectly.

A Taijutsu that would imbue chakra into the body the more they went through this kind of training.

It was a method of slowly tempering the body with Chakra over time. Thus, not having instant results.

Only gradually blooming rather than instantaneous.

Although Lee couldn't use Ninjutsu, he still had Chakra Pathways, that's why this Taijutsu could still be trained by him. This was only reason he became such a monstrous Taijutsu User in the future.
