#8 - Pharmacist Nono who loves children

"Kiyoshi, you don't have any problems."

Yakushi Nonou concluded, the faint green chakra in her hand dissipating.

Hearing this, Kiyoshi said:

"But, I heard that everyone opens their Sharingan with both eyes at the same time."

"There will always be special cases."

"I see."

Kiyoshi lowered his head.

He already knew this answer.

In the original story, this happened to Sasuke.

During his battle with Haku, Sasuke evolved one of his Sharingan into a two-tomoe Sharingan, while the other eye remained a one-tomoe, resulting in a mismatched pair.

It's just that such cases are particularly rare.

Yakushi Nonou carefully stored the examination equipment into a sealing scroll, her eyes glancing at Kiyoshi's slender figure, his dark eyes watching her.

Kiyoshi was unfamiliar with her current appearance, more accustomed to her other form.

Wearing a white hood and black nun's habit.

Casual movements could outline her full figure.

A very mature Madonna image.

At the same time, Kiyoshi was also sorting out some other information about Yakushi Nonou.

Medical team leader, highly skilled spy in the Root's spy division.

Her espionage skills were so great that even after retirement, Danzo Shimura personally came to her door, forcing her to continue working for Root.

Therefore, Kiyoshi never considered showing off his skills in front of Yakushi Nonou.

He answered whatever she asked.

As for whether Kiyoshi was a spy.

That was just Cloud Village unilaterally trying to recruit Yotsuki Kiyoshi; he, Uchiha Kiyoshi, hadn't responded yet.

He hadn't done any spying at all.

As for whether he would in the future.

That was a matter for the future.

"By the way, Lady Nonou, is the green chakra that just appeared in your hand the same as the one Lady Tsunade uses?"

Kiyoshi suddenly looked up, his voice with a hint of curiosity.

"Yes, this is medical chakra. The external color of the medical ninja's chakra in Konoha will turn light green."

Yakushi Nonou nodded, a strand of blonde hair falling down as she spoke.

When medical ninjas use medical ninjutsu, their chakra mostly turns light green, with the Mystical Palm Technique being the most typical.

Yakushi Nonou saw Kiyoshi staring at the sealing scroll where she had stored the equipment and asked:

"Are you interested in these?"

She knew about Tsunade coming to examine Kiyoshi's Sharingan.

She guessed that Tsunade had used medical ninjutsu for the examination, leaving an impression on Kiyoshi.

Kiyoshi's gaze fell on the sealing scroll she had just put away, and he asked thoughtfully:

"These medical ninjutsu... can I learn them?"

Yakushi Nonou was slightly surprised, and paused for a moment in the face of this sudden request.

She looked Kiyoshi up and down. Although the boy in front of her was thin, she could see that Kiyoshi had a large frame. If he trained, he would be a good taijutsu ninja.

"Kiyoshi, you'd be better off learning taijutsu."

"Taijutsu ninja?"

Mikoto glanced at Kiyoshi, hearing that Kiyoshi had some Yotsuki clan characteristics.

Mikoto didn't know where these characteristics were.

It was probably talent or something beyond ordinary, with unexpected abilities.

"But... maybe there will be clansmen with the same situation as me. At that time, I can help clansmen diagnose like Lady Nonou and Lady Tsunade."

Kiyoshi didn't hide the disappointment in his eyes. He scratched his head softly, as if trying to hide his inner disappointment: "So it's still not possible..."

At that moment, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly.

It would be fake to say he wasn't disappointed. If Nonou didn't accept him either, Kiyoshi would have to make other plans.

【The Art of Speaking (White)】 made Kiyoshi's tone more sincere.

Yakushi Nonou's heart skipped a beat.

She always liked children, especially children who had lost their support.

"Don't worry."

She said softly, trying to appease the seemingly pitiful child in front of her.

"After you graduate from the Ninja Academy, if your qualifications pass the medical ninja reserve test, come find me."

Yakushi Nonou said a few more words than usual.

If an adult came to her, she would only let the other party take the test themselves and follow the normal rules, without getting involved with herself.

But from the information she got from Root, Yakushi Nonou knew that Kiyoshi had been an orphan since he was two years old.

Over the years, she actually had an idea in her mind, that is, to open an orphanage after retiring from Root.

Kiyoshi's appearance made this idea even more intense.

"Really?"

Kiyoshi's eyes lit up suddenly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

The faint melancholy seemed to dissipate a little.

Yakushi Nonou nodded, with a gentle smile on her lips:

"What would I gain from lying to you?"

Mikoto, who was on the side, couldn't help but take another look at Kiyoshi.

This child was a bit different from other Uchiha clansmen.

Tsunade, who came to examine him last time, had a cold attitude towards him and had no intention of taking him as a disciple, but Yakushi Nonou seemed to have the intention of taking him as a disciple.

And according to Yakushi Nonou, he also has talent in taijutsu.

The current Uchiha clan has neither medical ninjas nor specialized taijutsu ninjas.

Uchiha ninjas, after graduating from the Ninja Academy, all enter the Konoha Military Police Force to manage village security and carry out missions.

She herself is also like this.

"Alright, little Kiyoshi, I have something to do, let's end here today."

Yakushi Nonou stood up and tidied up the sealing scroll.

Before leaving, her eyes swept over the books placed on the chair.

He's a studious child.

Yakushi Nonou commented in her heart.

"Yes, thank you, Lady Nonou."

Kiyoshi stood up politely, wanting to see Yakushi Nonou off.

He and Mikoto escorted Yakushi Nonou to the boundary between the Uchiha settlement and the streets of Konoha.

There was an ancient door frame there, marking the Uchiha territory.

"Go back and cultivate hard."

Mikoto left a sentence and left in a hurry.

Kiyoshi walked home alone.

The moon and stars were sparse on the road, and it was already night.

Kiyoshi breathed a sigh of relief.

This matter was much smoother than he imagined.

Thinking about it, Yakushi Nonou would even teach medical ninjutsu to orphans who were not villagers of Konoha, let alone him?

Moreover, Yakushi Nonou also had the idea of retiring, and it is estimated that she also had fewer concerns.

She has no weaknesses now.

Only when she becomes the director of the orphanage in the future will these orphans be used as hostages by Danzo to threaten her to become a spy again and lurk in enemy countries.

"Next, is to improve my chakra control ability as soon as possible to meet the standard."

…………

The next day, the Ninja Academy playground.

"Today's class is a small test, you need to run fifty laps!"

The instructor, Umino Iruka, blew his whistle, signaling the students to start running.

"Ah, it's running again."

"How much? Fifty?"
