I know Orochimaru isn't the first choice when talking about medical ninja, but let's take a look at his feats in that field:​

  • Proficiency in creating drugs, pills and medical stuff. Example - pills that keep one in near-death state, etc.
  • Extensive knowledge of poisons, can even modify other people bodies' to make them immune to poisons.
  • Skills in body modifications - Soft Physique etc.
  • DNA manipulation, expert in transplantology.
  • Proficiency in cloning.
  • An ability to regrow lost limbs and body parts.
  • The strongest regeneration abilities in NV.
  • Running medical laboratories himself, long before Kabuto was recruited.
  • Conducting sinister experiments on turning humans into snakes.
Obviously these are different from the standard Mystical Palm Technique, but does that really mean Orochimaru cannot be called a Medical Ninja? I think he can. And honestly, with his feats, he isn't far behind Tsunade and Kabuto in terms of medical abilities - it's just that his own feats are often overlooked, because he doesn't simply heal other people.

What is your opinion on all this?​
