Thread: If I can't do 100 push ups then...(Mr.pxZiyi)

Tsunade-sama had been an excellent teacher despite her first misgivings about it. Haruno Sakura's will and determination had become apparent from the very beginning and showed the Hokage that the student she had taken on had great potential to grow and learn in the field she had chosen. In the present Sakura was a skilled and talented young woman in the field of medicine and had even picked up some of Tsunade's traits and trademark abilities which was quite impressive, much like Naruto himself had learned Rasengan from Jiraiya. Now Sakura was considered one of the best medical ninjas in the entire world, definitely the best in Konoha with the exception of Tsunade of course. Ino was jealous of her but that felt good. Sakura loved to come out on top ahead of her former best friend. She didn't really know what she and Ino really were to each other, sometimes they were enemies but sometimes they were friends, it all depended on the situation and what it was they were after. If it was a mission of importance they would be able to work together but if it was anything less than that sometimes their emotions got ahead of them and they ended up fighting. They didn't mean to, it just sort of happened. Now, outside of missions was a different story and when it came to love they always fought for some reason... No matter. Sakura was currently working on developing a new remedy for healing broken bones, not the really serious kind but the kind that took a long time to heal such as broken ribs and broken digits such as fingers and toes. Broken arms and legs were a bit more complicated since there were more bones and tendons to heal and place in just the right places so she couldn't do that yet with a medicine. But broken ribs just needed to be re-aligned and healed together again and broken digits were similar to the ribs since there was only one bone to work with so that was acceptable. Sakura knew this had never been done before but she was experimenting with things. Hoping that someday she would become as good as Kabuto had been when Konoha had believed he was working on their side. She could learn a few things from Kabuto although she would never admit that for he was a traitorous snake and she wanted nothing to do with him. But she had to admit that he was good at what he did. The whole point to this medicine remedy of hers was to make a potion or lotion or cream or liquid or something that when applied to the afflicted area would be able to heal the aforementioned injuries within an hour of being applied. If she was able to do it, perhaps if the patient applied more of the substance to a certain area it would work better on more serious injuries. She wasn't entirely sure about that part but trial and error would be her savior and Sakura was excited about this. Needing to rest a bit, Sakura put her experimental potions and ingredients away to relax her mind a bit and returned to making up some of the normal poultices for the injured shinobi in the next few rooms, making up about five of them before she ran out of ingredients. Where was Ino? She should have been back by now. Sakura shook her head as she took the five poultice bandages and went out of the lab to one of the rooms that held the patients as she carefully put some on each person to ease their pain a bit and then headed out to the forest. Ino shouldn't be out here but if she found her here talking to someone, Sakura would let her have a piece of her mind, courtesy of Tsunade! She picked her way through the foliage and came across Rock Lee in his green jumpsuit and went over to him. Sakura was dressed in pink clothing that matched her short pink hair and she had a thin headband holding some strands away from her eyes as she cleared her throat. Did you happen to see Ino around here, Lee? She was supposed to get some herbs so we could make more poultices for the injured shinobi inside...
