The poison in Suichuan's body wasn't anything difficult to deal with.
At least, that's how it was for Shimizu.
With a simple Extraction Technique, the toxins within Suichuan's body were cleared.
What was slightly more troublesome were the hidden injuries within him.

The next day, Shimizu personally performed a minor surgery on Suichuan, using medical ninjutsu to treat most of the relatively easy-to-handle hidden injuries within him.
As for those that were slightly more troublesome, Shimizu also prescribed a medicinal formula based on the situation, instructing him to recuperate afterward.
Direct treatment, in theory, could completely heal him using medication + medical ninjutsu over a few weeks, but that would take too long.
What Shimizu did could also treat about seventy to eighty percent of the hidden injuries on his body, making it no problem for Suichuan to live for another ten years or so. Strictly adhering to his medication plan for a year would also essentially cure him.
Hanzō watched with some envy, also wanting Shimizu to help treat the hidden injuries he had sustained over years of battle, but he didn't say anything.
Mifune was essentially exchanged for the Kusanagi Sword, but what about him?
Even if they were allies, if you wanted someone to treat you, you would have to pay a price, right?
Not to mention that for ninjas, their own bodies held a lot of information.
Hanzō's own physical condition, the poison sac within him—these were all things to be careful about.
And he also had to consider whether these medical ninjas would secretly play tricks on his body without him knowing.
Without enough trust, no ninja would entrust their body to others.
Hanzō didn't know how much he would have to pay to buy this trust, and whether this trust was worth it.
Before leaving, Mifune specifically invited Shimizu and Hanzō to the Land of Iron three months later to attend his inauguration ceremony as general.
Even though his physical injuries had mostly recovered and his strength had also recovered somewhat, he still decided not to serve as general anymore.
Even at his peak, he was a defeated opponent of Hanzō, roughly at the level of an average Kage. Before, due to old age and physical decline, coupled with old injuries, his strength had almost fallen out of the Kage level, similar to Rasa, belonging to the bottom of the Kage level. If a few more years passed, it was hard to say whether he would fall out of the Kage level, let alone whether his body could withstand those old injuries.
Now that he had recovered, he believed that Mifune, who was still in his prime, was more suitable to serve as the general of the Land of Iron.
He had already been preparing to pass the position of general to Mifune in the next year or two.

Marvel World.
Vought Manor.
Shimizu ate breakfast with goji berry tea, listening to Weitus broadcast the morning news.
"Have all the people been sent out?"
While eating breakfast, Shimizu said to Jorge, who was taking away the plates.
"They have all been asked to leave, but young master, I suggest you be a little more restrained. Even if you are a superhero, no matter how good your body is, you need to take care of it."
The butler shrugged his shoulders.
Last night, Shimizu held a party at his own manor to celebrate the successful acquisition of Blizzard.
There were many female models and female celebrities accompanying him.
After that, Shimizu pulled seven or eight female celebrities and female models into his room and messed around all night.
That's why the butler Jorge added goji berry tea to the breakfast.
"Oh, my body is very good, the kind that can beat ten special forces soldiers alone, or even more. Even if I were to participate in the Olympics, I could win ten championships, or maybe I should say I could win as many as I participate in. I'm serious."
Shimizu tilted his head and said to the helpless butler.
The latter gave Shimizu a look that said, "Do whatever you want," and left with the plates.
"Weitus, has Gu Yi answered the phone?"
Shimizu turned around and said to the speaker on the table.
"I'm sorry, sir, Gu Yi has not responded."
"Okay, leave him a message. He can kick those planners' butts at any time now. If possible, please also beat up the former Blizzard CEO Kotick, who has already resigned. It would be best if he had a car accident or an accidental fall from a high altitude or something."
"Sir, I need to remind you that premeditated murder is illegal."
"It's okay, I don't want to kill him, I just want him to be paralyzed or completely paralyzed. In short, just do as I say."
"Okay, sir, the above statement has been recorded and sent to Gu Yi."
"By the way, has that batch of things that were sent over last night been processed?"
Next to it were several design drawings hand-drawn by Shimizu with the help of the panel and Weitus.
Further away, there was a temporary partition set up, separated by heat-insulating material. Walking into it, one could see a high-temperature heating furnace that was more than three meters high.
Next to the heating furnace was a large arc reactor with a diameter of more than one meter, constantly providing energy to the heating furnace.
As for what was being heated inside the heating furnace, it was vibranium and some other metals.
In addition to acquiring Blizzard, he had also spent a lot of money recently to purchase some extra vibranium.
Adding it to the three ounces he had previously purchased, it was almost one and a half pounds.
These metals were placed in various slots inside the heating furnace. Except for vibranium, all other metals were completely melted.
Counting all the metals in the Marvel Universe, vibranium is definitely a top-notch extraordinary metal. Only a few, such as adamantium and uru metal, can compare to it.
In terms of performance, vibranium is very similar to promethium in the DC world, equally nearly indestructible, and both have energy absorption properties.
There are also differences. For example, vibranium actually has a very low density, is very light, and compared to promethium, the energy absorbed by vibranium is more easily stimulated and reflected.
In order to connect with the outside world, Wakanda in Africa sells a limited amount of vibranium to the outside world every year. The official price is $10,000 per gram, but all of these limited sales of vibranium are controlled by the five permanent members of the United Nations. Other forces and retail customers cannot get any.
No far-sighted regime would allow this kind of strategic material to flow out.
To get vibranium, even with Shimizu's current status, he couldn't buy that $10,000-per-gram vibranium. If he wanted to go through official channels, he could only use connections to buy it from the military—the small amount of vibranium that the United States obtained from Wakanda basically only ended up in two places.
One is the military, and the other is NASA.
But the price of buying from the military is not cheap, and you have to give favors, limited purchases, and the quantity is too small.
The remaining channel is through the African warlord Ulysses Klaue, who also has a small amount of it flowing out.
However, the quantity will be more, but the price is higher.
Qingshui bought the previous three ounces from him.
You can try to outsmart him, but only if you have the strength. Ulysses Klaue is an African warlord, the local emperor of the Salva Territory (similar to Wakanda, a fictional African region in Marvel), with a certain amount of power and interests in many parts of the world.
In that part of Africa, even the top three permanent members of the UN Security Council would find it difficult to eliminate him without paying a huge price.
It's not worth it.
As for other countries and forces, they almost don't have that ability.
Without this strength, Ulysses Klaue wouldn't have the qualification to do vibranium business.
It's just that processing vibranium is a difficult task.
This thing, like promethium, has an upper limit to the amount of energy it can absorb. As long as you apply force beyond that limit, you can damage the vibranium.
To be able to directly reach this upper limit with one's own ability, it is conservatively estimated that you must have the strength of a Skyfather-level being.
Qingshui doesn't know if he can do it with all his strength, but he estimates that he is still a bit short.
Unless he can master more powerful magic and then sacrifice more things to the Vishanti and other multi-universal gods to cast spells.
Or wait until the day when he can exert the power of the Mind Stone to a greater extent.
As for now, he can only use a clumsy method.
Heat it up, slowly simmer it.
This heating furnace was designed by him, using that oversized arc reactor to supply energy. High-energy lasers are shone on the metal in different compartments of the heating furnace to heat it up.
An arc reactor can theoretically reach an output power of 3 billion joules per second. A palm-sized one can continuously supply power for fifteen minutes at full output.
This is a theoretical value. Only Tony Stark can turn it from a theoretical value into an actual value. The arc reactor manufactured by Qingshui with nanomachines has a slightly lower hydrogen saturation than the original, and the energy output design was created by Ivan Vanko after Stark's guidance, so it cannot reach this theoretical limit at all.
But it is also above billion joules per second.
And the arc reactor currently powering this heating furnace is more than one meter in diameter, twice the thickness of a standard arc reactor, equipped with four sets of energy output equipment, and outputs more than 10 billion joules of energy per second, and can continuously supply full load for thirty hours.
What is the concept of 10 billion joules per second? Its power generation is roughly equivalent to half of the world's largest hydroelectric power station, the Three Gorges Dam.
Although this can only last for thirty hours, while the Three Gorges Dam is permanent, it is enough to show how heaven-defying the energy of the arc reactor is.
Similarly, this also proves from the side how difficult it is to melt vibranium.
This vibranium has been heated for a full sixteen hours.
Last night before going to bed, it had already been heated for six or seven hours, and at that time it had just entered a red-hot state.
Now it is basically melted and can be cast.
I don't know, in the 1940s, with the technological level at that time, what black technology did Howard Stark use to process the vibranium and create that shield.
The metal in the heating furnace is not only vibranium, but also a part taken from the scepter of the Mind Stone.
Regarding the scepter of the Mind Stone, Gu Yi's evaluation is mediocre, first-class material, second-rate workmanship, and the effect is also second-rate. In order to reduce the lower limit of using the power of the gem, the upper limit that can be exerted is not even half of that of the Mind Stone.
The first-class material refers to the part at the top of the scepter used to install the Mind Stone.
That is made of Uru metal.
The hardness of this type of metal is no less than that of vibranium and adamantium, and it has better energy compatibility and extremely strong enhancement functions for magic and the like.
Kamar-Taj and Asgard both have mature methods for processing and utilizing Uru metal.
Top artifacts such as the Eye of Agamotto that contains the Time Stone, Thor's Hammer, and Stormbreaker are mostly made of Uru metal as the main material.
So, the melting and processing of Uru metal is actually simpler than vibranium. He can use other substances as catalysts to speed up the melting of this metal.
Of course, spending so much effort is to forge a magic weapon that belongs to him.
This scepter can be used, but it does not match his own fighting style.
Kamar-Taj has thousands of years of inheritance, and the successive Supreme Mages have a lot of experience in forging magic weapons. They have also accumulated some experience in using the Infinity Stones.
Qingshui flipped through the relevant information in the library and also consulted Wang, known as the Encyclopedia of Magic, for a lot of relevant knowledge before he made up his mind to create his own magic weapon.
He has already tried it out in the panel, and it can indeed exert more power than the scepter of the Mind Stone.
Time to get to work.
"Wittos, notify Jorge, let him prepare the meals for the next three days. During these three days, don't let anything disturb my work. If there is really an emergency, just tell you directly, and you can relay it to me."
Qingshui turned his wrist, took off the watch on his left hand, and ordered.
There are two things he plans to make.
One is to use Uru metal as the core, with a small amount of vibranium, to create a magic weapon similar to the Eye of Agamotto, which can better help him use the power of the scepter of the Mind Stone. The other is to use vibranium to create a blade and make a weapon with high penetration ability.
It's not that he doesn't want to make a set of armor like the White Knight, with vibranium plating on the outside, but there is simply not enough vibranium for that, and Qingshui's vibranium processing technology is not as mature as Lex Luthor's promethium.
The molten metal flowed out of the laser heating furnace and poured into the mold.
Qingshui stood aside, constantly fine-tuning the high-tech mold with the help of the robotic arm according to the monitoring data on the computer, and at the same time using chakra to cast magic to assist.
This is considered ancient forging using a combination of high technology and magic.
The molten metal was poured into the mold in batches. When the last drop of metal was poured into the mold, another batch of molds, mainly ceramic, covered it down, performing the final step of shaping—Uru metal and vibranium are too hard to grind and process.
If you want to make a weapon with a sharp edge, you can only do it now while it's hot.
