Almost completely given over to the fun training game with my daughter, I only allowed myself to sigh tiredly deep inside. Lately, all I've been doing is teaching someone - my daughter, my team, a bunch of former orphanage kids the basics of their chosen profession, pulling up weaker clan iryo-nins who want to start training clan children....
Somehow and quickly, I became the strongest and most experienced among several iryo-nins of the clan, as I overtook the less talented and persistent, and those who were at or near the level - died in the war, so Shenesu gave me the traditionally discounted on the strongest iryo-nin of the clan troubles in addition to the existing ones. Thank Rikudo for clones, or I wouldn't have time to do anything. As it was, there wasn't enough time for research.

The girls had gotten used to the idea that I could be as kind and generous as I wanted, but that I took their training very seriously and could do a lot, even if it hurt or embarrassed them.
- And what would that look like? - Hoshi ventured to ask.
- It's very simple - the danger must be real, and for this you must have a person who is sincerely trying to kill or wound in any way possible, - I grinned at the eyes of the kunoichi, - and for this purpose is perfect for the same genin, but from a village hostile to Konoha - Iwa. As luck would have it, I have such a genin.
