Tobirama carried the battered Seii on his back and activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, instantly disappearing from the training ground.
The next mont, his figure suddenly appeared on the Senju Clan Private Hospital's premises.
He marked this location and several others around Konoha with his unique Flying Thunder God spatial marking seal, which allowed him to teleport to them whenever he wished.
Once he arrived at the hospital, he wasted no ti and quickly went inside to find his sister-in-law, Uzumaki Mito.
By this ti, she should have finished the daily treatnt procedure for my brother.
So, she should be free to check on Seii.
Tobirama thought as he arrived in the restricted location of the hospital.
Just as Tobirama was about to knock on the door, the Fuinjutsu Seal on the door glowed slightly, automatically unlocking it.
"Co in, Tobirama," a serene voice of a woman could be heard from the other side of the door right after the door was unlocked.
It was none other than Uzumaki Mito's voice.
Tobirama didn't hesitate. He opened the door and walked inside while carrying the unconscious Seii.
There, he saw a treatnt room with 4 beds, various dical equipnt, and hundreds of vials of potions.
He noticed his brother, Senju Hashirama, sitting on one of the beds facing Uzumaki Mito, who was sitting on a chair near his bed, inspecting a couple of docunts.
As Tobirama walked in, both Mito and Hashirama turned their faces toward him.
Hashirama had a curious expression, while Mito just raised her left eyebrow.
She sensed both of them coming the mont Tobirama teleported near the hospital. She could do this because of her Uzumaki lineage's special sensory technique—Mind's Eye of Kagura.
This technique helps her detect living beings' chakra signatures and chakra properties from kiloters away.
Not only that, she also clearly sensed that sothing was wrong with Seii, whom Tobirama was carrying.
She didn't waste ti on aningless talk, stood up, pointed at one of the free beds, and told Tobirama, "Bring him to this bed."
"I will quickly check his condition."
Tobirama nodded and imdiately laid Seii to the bed Mito pointed to.
Mito ca over, placed her hand on Seii, and activated an unknown dical Ninjutsu to diagnose his condition accurately.
After a full minute of careful check-up, Mito said, "There is no danger to his life. He just fainted due to exhaustion."
"However…"
"He has several lacerations, a deep wound in his left abdon region, and two fractured ribs, which may be the result of a blunt trauma."
"Fortunately, the imnse vitality in his body already started repairing the wounds and the fractures, albeit at a rather slow pace."
"You were supposed to conduct a normal strength assessnt, Tobirama."
"Why does it feel like he just returned from a bloody battlefield?"
Hearing this, Hashirama's goofy and curious expression also turned serious, and he stared at his little brother with a reproachful look.
Tobirama, being subjected to such looks, felt embarrassed and slowly explained everything that happened during the battle.
.
.
.
"...And then I released the full pressure of my entire chakra reserves and instinctively detonated it, creating a powerful shockwave."
"At that ti, Seii, who was still in the air, was hit by it and landed far away."
Hearing this, Mito and Hashirama had a deadpan expression on their faces.
Hashirama asked, "So, you're saying that you were startled by his Ninjutsu and accidentally blasted him away?"
Tobirama nodded and replied, "Yeah! That's what happened."
Hashirama's expression beca even stranger as he asked again, "Are you an idiot?"
"As I said, it was an accident," said Tobirama, emphasizing the word "Accident" even more.
But Hashirama didn't back down and retorted, "You said the sa thing when you stabbed and killed Madara's brother, Izuna."
Tobirama rolled his eyes and said with so exasperation, "Brother, this and that are completely unrelated."
"This is my son we are talking about. Why are you comparing him to the long-dead ghost, Uchiha Izuna, who was literally trying to take my life?"
"Besides, I can teach my son however I want. Small accidents can always happen a few tis. Nothing to fret over."
Hashirama countered, "Listen to , Tobirama…"
But Tobirama had had enough and barked, "Don't forget, brother, I'm his father."
Hashirama snapped back, "Tobirama, you will regret this."
The two continued to argue. Fortunately, there were no door-slamming incidents here.
Mito, who was already treating Seii, heard the two brothers bickering with each other without stopping.
She just ntioned, "Just be careful next ti!"
Tobirama, who was mocking his brother just a mont ago, instantly donned a serious and respectful look and said, "Of course, sister-in-law."
Then he turned to his brother and started squabbling with him again.
----------------------------
Ti quickly passed. The once sunlit sky turned dark, adorned with a bright full moon and countless shimring stars.
It was already past 10 PM when Seii, lying on the hospital bed, suddenly opened his eyes.
What greeted him was a bright, white ceiling that had little to no decoration.
"Ah! A familiar ceiling!"
But he recognized this place right away.
He had been here on several occasions, after all.
After staring at the ceiling for a while, he sat up and checked his physical condition.
"All injuries seed to be healed."
"My chest doesn't hurt anymore, and the lacerations I got during the battle didn't leave any scars either."
"I'm in a perfect condition except for…"
Growl~~~
A strange but clear noise ca out of Seii's stomach.
"Except for being a little hungry."
"But leaving that aside…"
Seii put random thoughts aside and tried to channel his chakra throughout his body.
The chakra moved through his chakra pathway like a gentle stream. And just with a thought, he was able to extract chakra from his pathway and cover his whole body with it.
Then he activated his Sharingan and felt a burst of ocular power in them.
He soon stopped channeling the chakra and closed his Sharingan.
His crimson eyes once again turned royal-blue Tenseigan with rotating floral strand-like patterns centered around his black pupil.
"Sure enough!"
"It isn't just a one-ti thing."
"My chakra flow has beco smoother, elevating my chakra reinforcent and chakra control by a step."
"I can now gather and mold chakra more easily and cast Jutsu more quickly."
"Plus, the insight ability of my Sharingan has been strengthened."
"How did it happen?"
Unable to figure it out, he did the only thing he could do to analyze his situation.
"Status Panel."
Seii's words echoed in the room, and a translucent blue status panel erged before his eyes.

After a brief glance at his system panel, he imdiately understood what had happened.
He ignored the 1 point increase in his physique as it had increased a few days after his battle against the Rock Golem three months ago.
Seii suspected that this quick increase in his physique attribute was a side effect of the Chakra Enhanced Strength training. And it was a good thing.
But it had nothing to do with what happened earlier during the fight.
However, his spirit stat suddenly increased from 12 to 13.
"It was just 12 before the battle training."
"It must have increased when I was in the middle of the fight, when I was determined not to give up."
"After all, that's how Ninjas usually increase their spirit stat in real life—by going through nurous battles and tough situations with unshakeable determination."
"The increase in my spirit in the middle of stress also caused my Sharingan to evolve further."
"Its proficiency increased at least by 300 points during this fight alone."
"So, the increase in my spirit attribute made it easier for to control my chakra and make it flow through my body more smoothly."
"And the increased spirit attribute and the boost in Sharingan proficiency also made my Sharingan's insight ability more potent."
Seii finally relaxed after deducing this far and got down from his bed.
"Anyway, it's already too late. I should head back to my ho now."
"I'm hungry!"
With that, Seii left the hospital and quickly sped toward ho.
