Recovery room-
Tony Stark, having removed his shirt, lay on the operating table. Tsunade had just finished examining his body.
Charles looked at Tsunade and asked, "How is it? Can it be treated?"
Tsunade pushed aside the medical equipment and then glanced at the reactor in Tony's chest before saying, "The palladium poisoning in his body is easy to solve. Using the 'Delicate Illness Extraction Technique' should be sufficient."
Hearing about the 'Delicate Illness Extraction Technique’, Charles was puzzled for a moment. It wasn't a jutsu he had seen in his ninja scroll.
Seemingly aware of Charles's confusion, Tsunade explained, "It's a chakra manipulation technique. I've tried it, and it can be used directly."
Charles nodded in understanding, still having some doubts but choosing not to pursue the matter further.
"Let's start by treating the palladium poisoning in his body!"
Tony, lying on the operating table, overheard their conversation. Although he didn't quite understand what the 'Delicate Illness Extraction Technique’ was, he knew that his palladium poisoning could be resolved.
"Charles, I have to thank you again for saving my life."
"No problem, just give me another mission request later."
"Hahaha, as expected of your character, no problem."
Tsunade took action herself, creating a green chakra sphere in her hand. After injecting it into Tony's body and manipulating it around his chest arc reactor, she pulled out the palladium elements from his blood and deposited them into a nearby basin.
With the 'Delicate Illness Extraction Technique’, all palladium elements in Tony Stark's bloodstream were extracted.
"All right, the toxins in your body have been completely cleared."
Tony, lying on the operating table, was stunned. While he could sense the changes in his body, he hadn't expected it to happen so quickly. He took out a detection device from his pocket, pricked his thumb, and dropped a drop of blood on it.
Blood toxicity: 0!
Seeing the data on the device, Tony sat up, his expression somewhat excited, and exclaimed, "Heaven! It's really cured!"
"Fantastic, hahaha!"
Tony jumped off the operating table, ran to Charles, and then said, "Buddy, let's discuss the next long-term mission. She only needs to occasionally treat me."
Charles tapped Tony's chest reactor, saying, "Don't you need treatment for this hole in your chest?"
"Your body's shrapnel can also be removed by Tsunade. Or are you planning to keep it as a trophy and wear it on your chest forever?"
After rinsing off the basin in the corner, Tsunade spoke, "If we remove the shrapnel from your chest and heal your wound, the radiation poisoning will be much less. After all, the reactor is no longer implanted in your body, so the radiation dose will be much smaller."
Tony looked at the reactor in his chest and then thought about the mysterious jutsu Tsunade had just used. He immediately lay back on the operating table.
"Come on, I can't wait any longer. If other doctors weren't a hundred percent confident, I would have removed it already."
The reason Tony hadn't removed the shrapnel before wasn't because he didn't know the Arc Reactor posed greater dangers, but rather because he didn't dare to do so without a hundred percent certainty.
The surgery, after all, was a risky endeavor, and a failed operation could lead to death. With the assistance of ninjutsu, Tony felt more at ease now.
After all, toxins in the blood could be directly extracted; dealing with a few small shards was a breeze.
Charles nodded, and Tsunade continued Tony's treatment. Soon, the shards near Tony's heart were removed by Tsunade and placed in a box on the side.
Charles found a transparent bottle, put the shards from Tony's body inside, considering it would be a significant souvenir for him.
After removing the shards, Tsunade directly disassembled the reactor in Tony's chest, including the base of the fixed reactor and the surrounding steel rings.
Looking at the slimy reactor in Tony's chest, Charles couldn't help but marvel.
Under the treatment of the Mystical Palm Jutsu, the cavity in Tony's chest quickly grew new flesh and began to heal at a visible rate.
After a few minutes, Tony looked at the visibly whiter area around his chest and couldn't believe it. He reached out and touched it.
"I think other hospitals might as well close down. Your abilities are simply too abnormal."
Charles took out the transparent bottle and waved it in front of Tony, then smiled and said, "Do you want this? If you don't, I'll just keep it in my collection."
Seeing what Charles had in his hand, Tony snatched it away.
"I can't give this to you. I don't want everyone to know about my embarrassing moments. I'll keep this as my own collection."
Tony pocketed the small bottle and put on his shirt.
After putting on his clothes, Tony said, "I really don't know how to thank you. You've saved my life again."
"What kind of mission request do you need? Take it out, and I'll sign it for you right away."
Seeing Tony being so generous, Charles laughed and took out a blank mission scroll from his storage space. He then wrote down the mission request.
Medical Mission: Remove palladium poisoning and shards from the body, and treat chest injuries.
Commission amount: 100 million USD!
Looking at the amount, Tony shook his head and said, "Buddy, you're underestimating me. You're only charging 100 million USD. Is my life worth only this much?"
"But since you're only charging 100 million USD, I won't be polite."
Tony immediately signed his name on the scroll and handed it to Charles, saying, "I'll have Pepper transfer the money to you."
Charles didn't mind Tony's banter. 100 million was 100 million. It wasn't a small amount, and there was no need to ask for a higher price. Moreover, there would be plenty of opportunities to earn money from Tony in the future.
Tony hugged Charles and then said, "Actually, I have one more thing I want to entrust to you. You guys are extraordinary and might have information different from what's publicly disclosed in the scientific community."
"I wonder if you know about other elements, something different from what is currently known."
It was clear that Tony hadn't forgotten his original intention for meeting Charles.
Although he no longer needed the reactor implanted in his chest, and his mechs could be covered with anti-radiation materials to significantly reduce palladium poisoning, it couldn't be completely avoided.
He couldn't just follow his initial plan, running to Charles every now and then for a healing treatment. That would be too embarrassing.
