It was around midnight and Daichi was still in his bed awake. He looked out the window and saw the village submerged in darkness.
'It's time. I shouldn't wait any longer.'
With that thought Daichi closed the open window and created a shadow clone. He took the invisibility cloak from his inventory and handed it to the clone.
"You know what to do. Go!"
The clone nodded and under the protection of the cloak left the building. The real Daichi laid back on his bed and soon went to sleep.
—-
The shadow clone swiftly moved through the area and quickly reached the lake. He walked on top of the lake, almost a dozen meters from the shore. Once he found a suitable spot he took out a special sealing scroll.
'This will do nicely. I'm glad I bought scrolls like this when I had the chance.'
He placed his fingers on the scroll and activated it with his chakra. Several seals appeared on it with the kanji for water in the middle. It was a sealing scroll that could store vast quantities of water. He placed the scroll on top of the lake and it began absorbing the spring water.
'My chakra sense and Mana scout doesn't show anyone around. Excellent. The less people know the better. The properties of this water are amazing. No wonder Kabuto sought it out. I can revise the Ration pill formula and create something even better with this. But it needs thorough research. I could also use this as an ingredient for Jin's cure…'
At this another thought popped up in Daichi's mind. It was something he's been considering for a while. 'I need to set up a lab. Learning medical ninjutsu from Lady Tsunade has certainly ignited a passion for research in me. I need to also use it for my other quests… A top tier research lab will definitely come in handy for me. But how do I build one?'
Daichi knew he wouldn't be satisfied with a regular laboratory. He was thinking about building one with advanced high tech equipment and machines.
'I need to find an ideal spot to set up my lab. I need the funding to buy the necessary items. And even then, the production and distribution of advanced medical equipment is monitored by every nation. If I'm not careful I could get into some serious trouble. And after creating my lab, I need to create adequate defensive measures… Argh… So many things to do.'
As he was making plans for the future the scroll he was holding stopped absorbing the water. 'It's filled to capacity. This will last me a long while. And even if I need more, all I need to do is come back here.'
Daichi closed the scroll and placed it in his inventory. Since he was a shadow clone he couldn't take things out of the inventory but he could place items inside.
'Time to make my exit.'
Daichi cut the flow of chakra to his feet and immediately fell into the lake. As he submerged, he took off the cloak and quickly placed it in his inventory. Once the cloak disappeared he released the jutsu and vanished.

Kakashi and his student were in front of the elder of Tonika village. Along with his guard Jeno there were a few others there with him as well.
"We've looked over trade deals proposed in the scroll and we've come to a decision. We will accept the terms. I have signed the scroll." The village head spoke with a smile as he gave the scroll to the Leaf Jonin.
Kakashi took the scroll and secured it. "It seems our mission here is done. We'll be on our way then."
"Thank you for the hospitality." Daichi slightly bowed.
As the two Leaf ninja were about to leave, the village head called out.
"Could you wait a moment?" The elder asked. He looked at Daichi and spoke.
"Jeno here says you're a medic ninja. Is it true?" The leader asked.
Daichi could sense the uncertainty and hope in his tone. "Yes. I am."
The village leader hesitated for a moment and then asked a question that's been on his mind for a few hours.
"Did you perhaps learn medical ninjutsu under the Sannin Lady Tsunade?"
Daichi and Kakashi's eyes narrowed. They both were on guard when they heard the question.
'People were bound to know about my relationship with her. Still for someone to know that info even out here…'
"Yes. I did." Daichi nodded. He kept an impassive face. He wasn't sure what the old man wanted from him but he could make a strong guess.
"You two needn't look so tense. It was a coincidence that I learned of this information." The man tried to ease the atmosphere.
"Do you need me to heal someone?" Daichi asked the man.
At this the elder's face dimmed. There was great sadness in his eyes. "Yes. If it's not too much trouble, could you take a look at my daughter? She is weakening day by day and I don't know what to do. She gave birth a few months ago and soon her body began weakening." He spoke with a heavy heart.
"I hired some good medics from the Fire capital but they couldn't find the cause. That's when I heard about Princess Tsunade's young apprentice. I didn't know for sure if you were the same Daichi Hekima as the one I had heard about." He had hope in his eyes as he looked at the boy.
"Since you are her apprentice, I have no doubt that you're more than capable. You are my last hope. Will you please help her?" The man almost pleaded.

[Accept Y/N]
Daichi accepted the quest but he also needed Kakashi's approval. He knew the man would most likely agree to it. But he wanted to be sure. This was just a simple C Rank delivery mission after all. Daichi looked at his sensei from the corner of his eyes. Kakashi nodded in approval.
"Yes. I'll see what I can do. Take me to her."
The elder and the other people in the room had smiles on their faces. They all adored the elder's daughter and her two children. The head of the Tonika village guided the two Leaf ninjas to his home.
Once they reached the house the old man led them upstairs. The room his daughter was situated in was on the upper floor. He opened the door to the sick woman's room. Daichi, Kakashi and the village elder entered the room while the few others waited outside the house.
The man closed the door while Daichi looked at the woman sleeping on the bed. He went near her and examined her breathing and took her pulse. He could already tell that her condition was severe and knew that if nothing was done she would die in a matter of weeks.
He placed his hands above her chest and it started glowing green. Daichi was examining her state and soon found the problem. After a minute of observing his new patient he stood and looked at the elder. He then silently looked around the room.
Kakashi was watching Daichi's every move. 'He must have found something about her illness.'
The elder was silent as he watched the boy look around the room. He didn't want to disturb the child.
Daichi looked around the room and didn't find what he was looking for. It was then that he heard the sound of a tree branch slightly hitting the window in the room. He noticed a table near the window and a basket filled with fruits on it.
Daichi went near the table and examined the fruits in the basket. He then opened the window and looked outside. He looked down and saw something he had expected to see. A small smile formed on his face and he turned around.
Kakashi knew that smile. 'Seems he figured it out.'
Seeing the boy's smile, hope began to rise in the old man's heart. "Can you help her?" The desperation in his voice was obvious.
"I found the problem but for an effective treatment and cure, I need to make sure of something. I need you to answer a question." Daichi replied.
The elder's eyes widened and he nodded. "Whatever you need."
Daichi went to the fruit basket and picked a certain fruit. It was a red fruit the size of Daichi's palm. It was in the vague shape of an ape.
"Has your daughter been eating this fruit?" He asked the elder.
The man shook in affirmation. "Yes. It's one of her favorite foods."
Daichi nodded. "Rubukara Pyrokus. Or commonly referred to as the Scarlet Ape fruit due to its dark red color and Ape like shape. It is rich in vitamins, antioxidants and it's quite delicious. It's nutritious and an ideal food for everyone."
"I'm sensing a but coming…" Kakashi spoke.
Daichi smiled. "But, what people don't know is, it can also be turned into a poison."
"What!?" The elder was shocked. "Are you saying someone poisoned my daughter?"
"Not necessarily."
The village leader was confused when he heard the boy's reply.
Daichi beckoned them to come near the window and look outside. The two men did as Daichi told and looked outside.
"Look down. The small garden you see down there. Do you see a green flower with 6 petals?"
At Daichi's question both men focused their attention and quickly found the plant in question.
"Heptaurilum. Or the Green Umbrella flower. The 6 leaves hanging down in an arc resembles the shape of an open umbrella with the green flower on the top center. It's a very rare, beautiful flower and quite harmless. It's difficult to grow this flower in most places. It flourished here most likely due to the spring water here."
The two adults looked at Daichi as he continued with his explanation.
"It produces much more pollen than other flowers. About 7 times. And since these pollen are microspores and no different than dust, we dismiss them. Now this plant was recently grown here wasn't it?"
The village head nodded.
"Yes. It was among the plants I brought here from my trip to the Fire capital several months ago. My daughter thought it would be beautiful in the garden and planted it there. But what does that have to do with the fruit or my daughter's illness?" The old man asked.
"The pollen from this plant when combined with the Scarlet Ape fruit creates a toxin that slowly eats away at the chakra system and weakens the muscles. It's virtually impossible to detect unless you know what you're looking for. Your daughter must have been eating this fruit with the window open and with the winds flowing in this direction, the pollen may have landed on the fruit when she was eating it. It created the toxin and your daughter became poisoned."
The two men's eyes widened.
"So it was just an accident?" Kakashi asked.
"Yeah. I don't think anyone intentionally poisoned her. This was just a random coincidence." Daichi replied.
"C-can you save her?" The elder was anxious.
"Don't worry. Even though the poison has been in her system for a while she's not gonna die today. And yes. I can save her." Daichi eased the old man's worries.
Hearing that a wide smile formed on the old man's face. A few tears escaped his eyes which he quickly wiped away.
"I need a pen and paper." Daichi said to the man.
The elder quickly took a large piece of paper and pen and handed them to Daichi. The young medic quickly wrote down several instructions on the paper. Once he was done he handed them back to the man.
"I've created a medication for her. Right now her body is weak. So a heavy dose of the cure could do more damage to her than good. So I want you to give her this. I've written another prescription. Give this to her for two weeks and then start on the second medicine. In about a month she should be fully healed. Oh and you should either remove the flower from that area or don't let her eat the fruit."

The elder held Daichi's hands in gratitude. "Thank you. You saved her life. How can I repay you?"
"You don't need to do anything… I'd prefer it actually… Oh and before I forget. You need to keep what you learned here to yourself. This is a good way to make an almost undetectable poison and if this information got out it would cause trouble." Daichi conveyed the seriousness of the situation to the man.
"I understand." The man nodded his head. He smiled at the boy who created a cure for his daughter. He then led the two ninjas outside.
The few people outside were anxiously waiting for the results. They saw the village head come out with the 2 Leaf ninjas. They saw the wide smile on his face and had an answer.
"He truly is Lady Tsunade's apprentice. He found her illness and created a treatment for her." The man said to them.
[Reputation increases with the people of Tonika village.]
"What was wrong with her?" Jeno asked his leader.
Before the man could reply, Daichi answered. "She was suffering from a rare genetic disease. It caused her muscles to weaken over time."
The village head didn't dispute the words and nodded along with Daichi.
"Would you like to stay for a few more days? We'd be more than happy to have you."
The elder gave them an invitation which the two ninjas politely declined.
"I'll be sure to visit the Leaf village with my family once my daughter is healed. I'm sure she'll be excited to meet her savior." The village head said.
After some time the two Leaf ninjas left the village and headed back home.
