Mikoto's Request

Qingshui didn't want to comment, he just planned to be a quiet listener.

However, although he felt the topic was dangerous, Qingshui was somewhat surprised that Tsunade could show such a side to him.

They hadn't known each other for long, but clearly, in Tsunade's heart, he already belonged to the circle of close acquaintances.

As a result, Tsunade didn't want to let him off the hook and kept pressing him.

"Tell me, am I right? Everyone who wants to be Hokage is definitely an idiot."

In response, Qingshui could only force a smile and say, "Tsunade-sama, you're drunk."

"I'm not drunk!"

"I can still drink more!"

At this moment, Tsunade was like a child, showing none of the demeanor expected of a mature twenty-eight-year-old female ninja.

But it was late at night, and Qingshui had to refuse Tsunade's request to continue drinking.

"Tsunade-sama, it's time to go home."

Qingshui had also had a bit to drink, but he was in much better condition than Tsunade. He supported the somewhat unconscious Tsunade and paid the bill before leaving.

The two walked out of the barbecue restaurant, and the cool night breeze blew against them, making them feel a bit chilly.

Tsunade, who had been heavily drunk, sobered up a little from the breeze.

But only a little.

She was still leaning on Qingshui to avoid falling.

Continuing to support Tsunade, Qingshui could feel the oppressive aura of Chibaku Tensei.

He only needed to lower his head slightly to see a patch of fair skin that made it impossible to look away.

What does it mean to be rich and generous!

Compared to this, even the bright silver moon hanging in the sky seemed to dim.

Testing a cadre with this, which cadre could withstand such a test?

He quickly suppressed the lustful thoughts in his heart and hurried to send Tsunade back to the Senju Clan Compound.

"Tsunade-sama, you're back too late."

Kushina, who came out to open the door, chided instinctively. Upon seeing Qingshui, surprise immediately appeared on her face.

"Huh? Qingshui, why are you with Tsunade-sama?"

Qingshui quickly explained that he had invited Tsunade to dinner tonight to thank her for guiding his Medical Ninjutsu, and handed Tsunade over to Kushina.

"I see, as expected of you, learning so quickly. Unlike me, I haven't made much progress after several days."

During this time, Kushina had been following Uzumaki Mito to learn Sealing Techniques, leaving her no time to go out and play.

The last time, Mito wouldn't have allowed her out if it weren't to visit Mikoto.

"You are a genius, Kushina. With your talent, you will definitely be able to learn it. Don't be discouraged."

Kushina was from the Uzumaki Clan, so learning Sealing Techniques would definitely not be a problem.

It was just that she hadn't grown up yet, and her talent hadn't been fully realized.

"Hmph, that's right, I am a genius."

After leaving the Senju Clan Compound, Qingshui, walking on the road home, suddenly froze.

It turned out to be the Shadow Clone he had split off to cultivate Konoha Ryūyanagi. Just now, its Chakra had been depleted, and it had automatically dispelled.

That's right, even though he was going to treat Tsunade to dinner, he hadn't forgotten to cultivate.

This was one of the convenient aspects of the Shinobi world.

When there were things to do, they could genuinely split themselves.

Conversely, Konoha Ryūyanagi was indeed difficult, truly worthy of its S-Rank difficulty.

After the cultivation, Qingshui still had nine out of ten orifices open, with one remaining blocked.

He still had to continue working hard to become stronger. With his current strength, how could he ensure he could survive the Third Shinobi World War?

At least a 98% chance was needed to be safe.

When one is focused on a task, time passes quickly.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

During this month, Qingshui's life had basically been a three-point routine.

Every day, he only appeared at home, Konoha Hospital, and his training location.

Although it was monotonous, the results were excellent.

His Chakra had improved significantly, and the small goal he had set earlier had been completed.

[Chakra: C-Rank (11750/100000)]

His current Chakra, even among the Jonin, was considered mid-tier.

What Qingshui hadn't expected was that reaching B-Rank would require at least 100,000 Chakra.

It was impossible to reach in a short period.

And a few days ago, when his Chakra broke through 10,000 and reached C-Rank, the system rewarded him with a treasure chest.

This was a different reward than the Orbs.

Upon opening it, he obtained a Copy Scroll.

As the name suggested, after using it, he could randomly copy one ability from a designated target, limited to abilities the target could currently use.

Furthermore, these scrolls with special functions were all single-use.

Therefore, Qingshui hadn't used it yet.

Firstly, the Copy Scroll was precious, and whether he could obtain another in the future was unknown.

Secondly, he could already obtain others' Ninjutsu, making the Copy Scroll's function seem somewhat redundant.

But that wasn't the case. The Copy Scroll could copy Kekkei Genkai.

This function was something the Orb rewards couldn't achieve, at least the Golden Orb couldn't.

As for whether the Color Orb could?

Qingshui wasn't sure, as he hadn't obtained a Color Orb reward yet.

Therefore, to maximize the Copy Scroll's effect, Qingshui definitely had to use it on someone with a Kekkei Genkai.

As long as he successfully copied a Kekkei Genkai, he would have hit the jackpot.

Among Konoha's Kekkei Genkai, the most famous were naturally Wood Style and Sharingan.

The former didn't exist in Konoha anymore; at this point in time, Yamato might not even be born.

As for the Sharingan, Mikoto possessed it, and it was even Three Tomoe.

Qingshui could easily get in touch with her.

However, since Mikoto was discharged from the hospital, she had reorganized her ninja team and had been mostly out of Konoha for the past month due to missions.

As for the Byakugan, Qingshui wasn't considering copying it.

The Hyuga Clan's Byakugan held strategic importance in war.

However, in terms of personal strength improvement, its ceiling wasn't as high as the Sharingan's.

Unless it's the Byakugan of the Otsutsuki Clan.

More importantly, if he used the Copy Scroll on the Hyuga Clan and copied Gentle Fist instead of Byakugan, he would have lost out big time.

After all, Gentle Fist's greatest effect is achieved when paired with Byakugan.

"Qingshui, could you do me a favor?"

Mikoto suddenly arrived at Konoha Hospital and asked Qingshui for help.

"Don't rush, what exactly do you need my help with?"

It turned out that Mikoto's ninja squad had accepted a C-Rank escort mission today, to escort a merchant caravan to the Land of Rain.

Everything was ready for departure, but the employer's son got injured while playing.

Ordinary people are not ninjas; injuries aren't something that can be recovered from quickly.

However, the employer was in the food business, and delays would easily cause the ingredients to rot, leading to huge losses.

So the employer requested that a Medical Ninja accompany them to take care of his son along the way.

Squads with Medical Ninjas were already rare, and Medical Ninjas working at Konoha Hospital were generally unwilling to go on missions.

After all, not every Medical Ninja was like Tsunade, capable of both healing and fighting.

That's why Mikoto came to Qingshui.
