#144 - The future cool queen Mao Yue Xi Yan
"Lord Third, these are my observations from my trip to the Sand Village."
Kiyoshi revealed everything.
He only concealed the small part that he himself had done.
When Hiruzen Sarutobi first heard it, he thought Kiyoshi was just talking nonsense.
This matter was too unbelievable.
Internal strife in the Sand Village, and Chiyo's grandson actually attacked the Third Kazekage?
When Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Tsunade, Tsunade repeated the account, telling the same story as Kiyoshi.
This made Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart sink to the bottom; Tsunade was not one to joke.
Moreover, the ninjas stationed on the border did indeed send back intelligence about the Sand Village attacking Tsunade.
"Kiyoshi, you did very well this time."
Hiruzen Sarutobi suppressed his worries about the future and first encouraged Kiyoshi's will-of-fire behavior.
Back then, he was the first to step forward to cover the retreat, which led to the Second Hokage appointing him as the Third Hokage.
In Hiruzen Sarutobi's view, this was a sign that Kiyoshi was assimilating into the village.
He might very well be the second Uchiha Kagami.
"These are things I should do."
Kiyoshi said.
If he didn't cover the retreat, how could he get the improvement of his eye power and sealing techniques?
Hiruzen Sarutobi then praised the others as well.
Only then did he let them go down to collect their rewards.
"Summon the Hokage advisors."
After the others left, Hiruzen Sarutobi picked up his pipe and slowly began to smoke.
"Yes."
An Anbu suddenly appeared in the Hokage's office, and then suddenly disappeared.
...
"The Land of Lightning, they should seize the opportunity to jump out, right?"
Leaving the Hokage Building, Kiyoshi, walking on the streets of Konoha, pondered.
His old employer was a military expansionist.
The best evidence was when they infiltrated Konoha and abducted Kushina.
And then there's the Magnet Release ninja, Toroi.
The Land of Lightning doesn't have such a bloodline limit, but Toroi still belongs to the Cloud Village, which is very intriguing.
Not to mention that the Land of Lightning also possesses various other bloodline limits.
Compared to other countries, the overall style of the Land of Lightning is different.
"You kids chat slowly, I'm leaving."
Tsunade counted her banknotes as she walked in the other direction.
Should she use the newly obtained reward to buy wine or go to the casino?
Shizune said it seems like the seasonings at home are gone.
"It's decided, I'll go to the casino first and win enough money!"
Tsunade made a happy decision, her plump figure soon leaving only a green back view for Kiyoshi and the others.
Faintly visible was a huge "Gamble" character fluttering behind Tsunade.
"Ninja School has started again recently."
The three of them passed by the gate of the Ninja School and found a bunch of children coming out from inside.
Kurenai Yuhi was quite emotional.
Unconsciously, she had graduated for a long time.
She could already be considered their senior.
"It's been so long after all."
Asuma Sarutobi looked at the figures inside and couldn't help but shake his head.
None of these kids have as good a spirit as him.
There's even a sickly fellow inside.
Kiyoshi glanced around a few times and actually spotted a few familiar figures.
That was Yugao Uzuki and Hayate Gekko.
"Cough cough... cough cough..."
Hayate Gekko kept coughing.
He forgot to bring his medicine today.
"Are you okay, Hayate?"
Yugao Uzuki asked worriedly.
Her short purple hair set off her flawless, delicate face, making her look very pretty.
"It's nothing... cough cough... forgot to bring my medicine."
Hayate Gekko said while coughing.
He was already used to this kind of thing.
This was a bloodline limit disease, an incurable, lifelong illness.
His family all had this disease, and most of them died young.
Hayate Gekko's body was also weak and sickly, and his physical fitness was inferior to his peers in all aspects. For this reason, Hayate Gekko could only work hard to practice swordsmanship, wanting to make up for it with skill.
"Is this better?"
When Hayate Gekko and Yugao Uzuki walked past him, a faint green light suddenly appeared in Kiyoshi's hand, and then he pressed it on Hayate Gekko's back.
Kurenai wondered what Kiyoshi was doing.
Asuma Sarutobi, who was looking at the others, also withdrew his gaze.
"You are..."
Hayate Gekko was startled.
But he quickly realized that it was indeed as the tall and strong brother in front of him said, he felt much better.
Yugao Uzuki's small face was full of vigilance, staring at the unknown Kiyoshi.
"My medical ninjutsu can only temporarily relieve it, it's better to go back and take your medicine quickly."
Kiyoshi gave a gentle smile.
"Yugao, don't be like this, my condition really has improved a lot."
Hayate Gekko quickly said when he saw Yugao Uzuki's brows furrowed.
"It seems so."
Yugao Uzuki gradually lowered her guard when she heard that Hayate Gekko had stopped coughing.
It seemed that this big brother was really helping Hayate Gekko out of kindness.
"Are you a doctor?"
Yugao Uzuki asked.
Every time she saw her childhood sweetheart Hayate Gekko coughing, her heart would ache along with him.
She didn't know how many times she had thought it would be great if she could cure Hayate Gekko's illness.
"I guess so, I'm a medical ninja."
Kiyoshi let go.
In the original story, this pair could be considered a pair of star-crossed lovers.
As a result, Hayate Gekko was too weak and couldn't beat Baki, and died in his hands, leaving Yugao Uzuki to live as a widow ever since.
He couldn't stand such a tragedy.
Let him save these two.
Kiyoshi's eyes flickered, and he glanced at Yugao Uzuki meaningfully.
Yugao Uzuki and Kurenai Yuhi will both be mature women in the future, but in terms of aloofness, perhaps because of her purple hair and her experience in the Anbu, Yugao Uzuki is even better in this regard.
"Thank you."
Hayate Gekko wondered why Kiyoshi kept staring at Yugao, but he sincerely thanked the person who helped him.
Yugao Uzuki also thanked him, apologizing for her rudeness just now.
"It's nothing."
Kiyoshi waved goodbye.
"Kiyoshi, your medical ninjutsu is so good."
Kurenai Yuhi's tone was surprised.
She knew a little about Kiyoshi going to Konoha Hospital to become someone's apprentice, but she didn't expect Kiyoshi's medical ninjutsu to be not bad.
But Kiyoshi is so all-rounded in other aspects, yet he also mastered medical ninjutsu, a technique that consumes so much energy.
How is this time allocated?
"It only temporarily relieves it for an hour, you still need to take medicine."
Kiyoshi said lightly, then echoed Kurenai Yuhi's words.
"Kiyoshi, do you want to go to BBQ Q to celebrate?"
Kurenai Yuhi asked Kiyoshi for a long time about his going to learn medical ninjutsu, and then extended an invitation.
It's good that Lady Tsunade just left.
Kurenai Yuhi would also feel pressure from being in contact with such a legendary figure all the time.
"No, I'll go back first."
Kiyoshi shook his head.
The war is about to break out, so of course, strengthening his strength is the best policy.
The progress of the Reincarnated Shrine Maiden's entry has reached 98%, and it will be completed soon.
Sasori's puppetry, poisoning skills, and Maki's sealing techniques are all waiting for Kiyoshi to learn.
