Kawaki is sitting on the edge of the bed.
"By the way, Teacher Sasuke came to see me today." he said.
"Teacher Sasuke?" Kiyomi said, "What did he say?"
"He said he wanted to strengthen my training on wedge control." Kawaki said, "Starting from tomorrow, special training will be conducted every day."
"Special training?"
"Yes." Kawaki said, "He said that only by fully mastering the power of wedge can we avoid going berserk again."
Kiyomi nodded.
"That's fine." She said, "When I am discharged from the hospital, I will continue training."
"You haven't recovered yet." Kawaki said, "Don't force yourself too hard."
"I won't force it." Kiyomi said, "But I must become stronger."
"Why are you so persistent?"
"Because I want to protect important people." Kiyomi said, "Protect the village, protect my friends, protect you."
Kawaki looked at her.
"Kiyomi..."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Kawaki shook his head, "I just think you are really amazing."
Kiyomi smiled.
"It's not that great." She said, "I just do what I have to do."
The two chatted for a while.
Kawaki looked at the time.
"It's time for me to go." He said, "Teacher Sasuke is still waiting for me."
"Go." Kiyomi said, "Come on training."
"Hmm."
Kawaki stood up and walked to the door.
"Kiyomi."
"Huh?"
"Come on, too."
Kiyomi was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"Okay."
After Kawaki left, Kiyomi lay on the bed.
She picked up an apple and took a bite.
"Kawaki..." she whispered, "You have really changed a lot."
She remembered the time when she first met Kawaki.
At that time, Kawaki was cold, withdrawn, and unwilling to communicate with anyone.
But now Kawaki can care about people, take care of them, and even make breakfast.
"Is this the power of friends?" Kiyomi smiled.
She closed her eyes and continued to rest.
The next morning.
Kiyomi completed the discharge procedures.
The medical ninja repeatedly told her to take rest.
"I understand." Kiyomi said, "Thank you."
She walked out of the hospital and took a deep breath.
"Finally it's out."
She moved her body.
Although there is still some pain, it is much better.
"Let's go to Training Ground first."
She walked towards Training Ground.
When she arrived at Training Ground, she saw Kawaki and Sasuke training.
Black marks appeared on Kawaki's body.
But this time he could control the range of the mark, which only covered his arm.
"Not bad." Sasuke said, "Keep it up."
Kawaki nodded.
He punched a tree.
The tree trunk was broken instantly.
"The power is controlled very well." Sasuke said, "But the speed is not enough."
"I understand."
Kawaki Try again.
This time he was much faster.
Kiyomi stood watching from a distance.
"Kawaki is making great progress." She whispered.
"You're not slow either."
Kiyomi was shocked.
She turned around and saw Sasuke standing behind her.
"Sasuke teacher?"
"Discharged?" Sasuke asked.
"Yeah." Kiyomi nodded, "Just discharged from the hospital."
"How is your recovery going?"
"It's much better." Kiyomi said, "You can continue training."
"No." Sasuke shook his head, "You still need to rest for a day."
"But..."
"No but." Sasuke said, "Your body has not fully recovered yet, and training now will leave hidden dangers."
Kiyomi gritted his teeth.
"Okay."
"Come back tomorrow." Sasuke said, "Have a good rest today."
Kiyomi nodded.
She turned and walked back.
But after taking a few steps, she stopped again.
"Sasuke teacher."
"Huh?"
"Kawaki's wedge, can you really control it?"
Sasuke was silent for a while.
"Yes," he said, "As long as he doesn't give up."
Kiyomi breathed a sigh of relief.
"I understand."
She left Training Ground.
Walking on the road, she felt very complicated.
Kawaki is trying to control the wedge.
She also has to work hard to become stronger.
"Can't lose to Kawaki." Kiyomi clenched his fists.
She came home and lay on the bed.
Although Sasuke asked her to rest, she couldn't sleep at all.
"Would you like to practice on your own?"
She sat up and walked to the yard.
"Just practice concentrating Chakra."
She began to gather Lightning Release Chakra.
Blue lightning emerged from her hands.
But it quickly dissipated.
"Sure enough, it still doesn't work." Kiyomi sighed, "Chakra hasn't recovered yet."
She sat in the yard and looked at the sky.
"I really want to become stronger quickly."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?"
Kiyomi walked over to Gate of Opening.
Outside the door stood Boruto and Sarada.
"Boruto? Sarada?" Kiyomi said, "Why are you here?"
"I came to see you." Boruto said, "I heard you were discharged from the hospital."
"Yeah." Kiyomi nodded, "Just discharged from the hospital."
"How do you feel?" Sarada asked.
"Much better." Kiyomi said, "Come in and sit down."
Three people walked into the house.
Boruto and Sarada are sitting in the living room.
"By the way, didn't you train today?" Kiyomi asked.
"The training is over." Boruto said, "So I came to see you."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome." Sarada said, "We are friends."
Kiyomi smiled.
"By the way, where is Kawaki?" Boruto asked, "Is he still training?"
"Yeah." Kiyomi nodded, "Teacher Sasuke is giving him special training."
"Special training?" Boruto said, "Is it about wedges?"
"Yes."
Boruto was silent for a while.
"Kawaki works really hard." He said.
"Yes." Kiyomi said, "So I can't lose to him."
"You are already very powerful." Sarada said, "You can actually use Lightning Release to save Kawaki."
"That's just good luck." Kiyomi said, "If Kawaki hadn't been working hard to control the wedge, I wouldn't have been able to do it."
"But you did it." Boruto said, "That's amazing."
Kiyomi smiled.
The three people chatted for a while.
Boruto Suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, Kiyomi." He said, "Did you know? There have been some strange things happening in the village recently."
"Something strange?" Kiyomi said, "What is it?"
"Some people saw black shadows wandering in the village." Boruto said, "And those shadows would attack people."
Kiyomi frowned.
"Black shadow?"
"Yes." Sarada said, "Several people have been attacked."
"Is it seriously injured?"
"It's not heavy." Sarada said, "But I was unconscious for a while."
Kiyomi ponders.
"Could it be someone from Kara Organization?"
"It's possible." Boruto said, "But there is no evidence."
"Did the village take any measures?"
"Yes." Sarada said, "Uncle Shikamaru has sent people to patrol."
Kiyomi nodded.
"That's good."
The three of them chatted for a while.
After Boruto and Sarada left, Kiyomi sat in the living room in a daze.
"The black shadow..." she whispered, "Could it be related to Wei?"
She remembered the way Kawaki went berserk.
At that time, his body was also covered with black marks.
