Satoru looked at the broken body of Soma, Tanaka asked him "I tried to heal him as much as I could, will you be able to heal him?"
"He is fatally wounded so if he dies, then I'm not responsible. Just letting you guys know." Satoru said then motioning Hinoka to come closer.
"I'm gonna need you to refill my chakra several times during this process, is that okay with you?" Satoru asked to which she nodded
Satoru then walked towards Soma, his og body, Kaito and Chosuke. They were all lied down side by side. 'If I ignore the concept usefulness, I can create four shadow clones which can do absolutely no ninjutsu.'
Satoru made four shadow clones and told Hinoka to refill them with her chakra. The main clone began analyzing Soma's body.
"The bones that are broken have created several shards which have punctured organs and blood vessels. They are causing internal bleeding and will kill before the damage to his organs from lightning catches up to him." Satoru made a incision on his forearm and opened it.
Satoru added his chakra to sterile water and made the water enter into his muscles and blood vessels. Satoru removed the water only to see it turned red and had several tiny pieces of bone in it.
Satoru then rearranged the broken bones properly and kept them in place with chakra strings, tying them up properly.
Satoru created more strings to stitch his forearm before moving to other limbs. Sweat fell from his forehead as he stepped back to handle the information flooding his mind.
His shadow clones were performing surgery on his teammates and the original body while he was operating on Soma. The sheer complexity and the mental strain from performing the surgeries made the clones' mind hurt. The clones dispelled themselves from the pain.
All the information from his clones made the original Satoru wake up with headache. He was just enough healed to move around. He frowned when he saw Kaito and Chosuke just to see that the clones dispelled themselves in the middle of the surgery.
Kaito suffered from several burn wounds alongside deep cuts on his body from all the lightning clad swords. The wound would open up even after stitching. Meanwhile Chosuke's enemies chose to wear him down with several small injuries which created thousand of small fractures and muscle tears.
"Is everything okay? Why did the clones dispel?" Tanaka asked nervously. "I usually use one shadow clone at a time as it reduces the mental strain to a manageable level. I can do two but I cannot hold them for a long time..."
Satoru held his head in pain as the memories of the clones were still flooding his mind. "But four clones? Four clones performing a mentally difficult work like surgery...its too much for me." Satoru said finally breathing a sigh of relief as the memories stopped hammering their way into his head.
"What will you do now? Soma is still dying, right? Even your friends are hurt really bad. You cannot stop now!" Hinoka said, she sat besides Soma and looked at his expressionless pale face.
"Refill my chakra again." Satoru created four shadow clones which again began their work. "Soma is the top priority, bring Chosuke and Kaito to a stabilized state and then help heal Soma. Replace yourself at different intervals." Satoru told his clones as he began meditating.
The clones nodded as they went back to work. Tanaka and Hinoka looked nervously as Satoru resumed his work.

Few hours passed by but the surgery for Soma was still in progress. Satoru was a sweating mess, he had been enduring the intense pain from the shadow clones dispersing. And it made him feel like his head was splitting open.
The pain was so unbearable that he couldn't make the shadow clones who healed Kaito and Chosuke join in to help Soma.
'What do I do? I was supposed to stop all the internal bleeding within first 5 hours, I need to start helping his organs before he dies. From what I can see...his bones were shattered one by one and he was stabbed in the abdomen while the weapon was used to electrocute him.' Satoru stitched back his leg and then began removing Soma's shirt.
Satoru used his chakra pulse sense to detect several broken ribs puncturing his lungs...his left lung was completely filled with blood. Many of important arteries had slight burn wounds and leaked blood.
'His organ systems like digestive and excretory won't effect his life or death...at least for a while. I should focus mostly his circulatory and respiratory systems right now.' Satoru turned to look at Tanaka and Hinoka
"He has lost a lot of blood, What is his blood type? I will have to give him more blood to continue." Satoru said to them both.
"It's O positive! Do you need one of us to donate blood? I don't have that blood type." Tanak said. "Same with me." Hinoka added.
Satoru opened a scroll and brought out a small packet of blood and added a cannula to begin injecting the blood. 'How do I unclog his lung? Should I use same method I used to remove the shares?'
Satoru mixed his chakra with water and made it enter Soma's lung. Satoru intended to make the chakra infused water to scoop out the blood. But it backfired.
The chakra mixed water entered the lung, the water mixed with the blood causing the balance created by the dried coagulation blood and the puncturing bones to break. Satoeu panicked when he saw the bleeding began all over again.
"No no no no no!!!" Satoru muttered out making Hinoka and Tanaka anxious.
"I need to stop it." Satoru suddenly had an idea. He used his chakra as a physical barrier and applied just enough pressure to keep the bleeding at bay. The bleeding stopped just long enough for Satoru to create a straw like object with his chakra.
Satoru inserted the straw into his lungs and started draining the blood out.
Satoru let out a sigh of relief when he saw the lungs being emptied out and become functional again. His palm glowed green as he began closing the wound.
Slowly one by one he removed all the bones which had punctured the lung and reconstructed his ribcage.
Satoru then focused on Soma's circulatory system. Upon inspection, he instantly realized just how hard it will be.
Hinoka saw the distress and came closer to Satoru, "Hey, what happened? Why did you stop all of a sudden?"
"There are millions of microscopic injuries on his blood vessels, though they don't contribute to his internal bleeding as much his injuries in his limbs did, they are still very concerning."
"If they aren't as concerning then why did you stop?" Hinoka asked while her eyes went on the chakra tube attached to Soma's lungs, she watched a lot of coagulation blood slowly come out.
She felt like vomiting, she was experienced in the act or killing, buy seeing such a disgusting mass exit the lungs made her gag out of disgust.
"All of that was inside his lungs? What was it doing there?" Hinoka asked as she quickly walked away and emptied her stomach
"There was some fluid in his lungs, he probably was sick or something. The fluid mixed with the coagulated blood and started drowning him. At least one of his lungs." Satoru said, unbothered by the gross sight.
"You said there are very several small injuries on his blood vessels. Then what's the problem? The mystical palm heals everything in a certain area. Using it should heal the entire region, won't it." Hinoka asked curiously while still looking at the pipe.
"Think of it like this : when rain falls, the leaves on the outside get wet, right? What happens to the leaves which are on the inside? Near the trunk of the tree."
"They are shielded from the rain by the outer leaves, that's the problem here?" Hinoka asked but then suddenly got an idea.
"Hey, this tube you created. Can you use this? Maybe inject the yang chakra like a syringe." Hinoka pointed at the tube.
"I didn't think of that...I'll have to try it." Satoru created a chakra string and then turned it into a tube, he carefully created yang release chakra and then 'injected' it into a tissue located deep in Soma's body.
The chakra worked exactly as planned, Satoru's eyes lit up seeing the success of the idea just for it to dissipate. "W-what happened? Why did the tube dissappear?"
"Unlike normal chakra and elemental chakra, yin-yang chakra are much harder to control. Even forcing yang chakra through a pipe is too unstable." Satoru said.
"Then what will do now? If this doesn't work you'll have to find another way to heal him."
Satoru created four shadow clones who barely had enough chakra to exist. "Please refill their chakra, there is no going back now." Satoru said as he created another tube.
Satoru made all his clones create as many tunes as possible and made them heal as many wounds as possible.
'Consequences be damned. the clones' experience will help me develop faster and then i can create even more skilled clones. I'm sure my real self will understand.' Satoru said while looking at his passed out original body.
One clone focused on how to maintain the tube's structural integrity, the other trained on how much chakra could be pumped through these tubes and the other two worked on shape transformation of yang chakra.

Few more hours passed by. The sunset was beautiful but no one had the chance to admire it.
The orange sunlight reflected off the sweat on Hinoka's forehead. She refilled Satoru's chakra one more time, after so many refills her chakra reserves were taking the hit.
Hinoka was sure she wouldnt be able to refill Satoru again. Who had managed to extend the time he could use the tubes for.
A tube went deep into a tissue and began injecting yang chakra, the blood vessels mended rapidly.
Satoru looked at his clones and saw that they managed to maintained their tubes for more than thirty seconds before the tubes broke down.
Satoru thought to himself, ' with this I'll be able to heal most of his injuries. If she refills me one more time, then...then I can save him.'

Kaito woke up, his head felt like it was hammering, pain radiated throughout his body. He sat up and saw Chosuke was sleeping, and some random people were near Satoru.
Kaito looked up and saw it was night time, the stars looked extra bright to him now that he actually paid attention to them. "Is it the night of the third day or the morning of the fourth? How much time passed while I was out cold?" Kaito thought out loud.
"Night of the third day...you were out for about 8 hours." Satoru said, he was leaning against a tree. He looked like he hasn't slept or rested in days, and it was true.
Kaito looked at Satoru and then at the clone near the unfamiliar people. "Is that a clone or are you?" Kaito asked
"That one is the clone. For the last few hours I healed you and Chosuke alongside that team's member. You and Chosuke had healable wounds but that guy...that guy is in big trouble." Satoru said while looking at his clone, who was now nearing the end of the surgery.
"I have never seen you use four clones at the same time...even for fighting. How did you get the chakra to do that?"
"That Uzumaki girl kept refilling my chakra. I emptied my reserves several times during these past hours. Those clones are probably my 30th or 40th batch."
"You lost count? How screwed was that guy for you use so much chakra to heal him? Will he even live at this point.
"He was tortured in a way that he would sustain as much permanent unrecoverable damage as possible and not die. Those kumo ninjas could just knock him out but wanted him to suffer as much as possible."
"So...what then, will he turn into a vegetable or something? What's the point of healing him then. People have mercy killed for less."
"No...that's the cruel part. At first I thought he was passed out or in a coma but He can feel everything...his every other sense organ was damaged was kept intact in a way that he cannot interact with the world but feel all the pain in his body.
Every single pain receptor is functional in his body. Those people wanted this guy to suffer and that's what he is doing. He is blind, mute deaf among other disabilities. He sees nothing, hears nothing, speaks nothing. All he feels is pure mind numbing pain."
"Kill him and free him then, why make him suffer so much then?" Kaito looked horrified after hearing the state of the guy Satoru was treating.
'I am enjoying his pain, I fact I tried to understand how he was tortured so I could replicate it.'
"I learnt of it recently...before this I was under the impression that he was not feeling pain. After coming this far and giving them hope that he will live...I cannot just leave him be and say he cannot be saved." Satoru said with a looked sadness.
