Could It Be That He Was a Medical Genius? [Second Update, 5k]

"Kid, you got here fast. Too bad this is a drinking party, there's no room for you. Go to the counter and order some dessert."

Tsunade spoke in a tone as if she were talking to a child.

Kyohiko said, "Kushina- senpai asked me to find you two, saying she's inviting everyone to her place for dinner."

"Puff!"

Jiraiya immediately spat out the sake he had just drunk.

Fortunately, he turned to the side and didn't spray Kyohiko or Tsunade.

He wiped his mouth awkwardly. "I don't think Minato has come back yet?"

No, what's wrong? Have you been in contact?

Tsunade was puzzled.

Jiraiya's expression was solemn.

Kushina's food... it's hellish!

"Don't worry, Hong is just helping out."

"Oh, never mind then. Forget what I just said, whatever you do, don't tell Kushina! Come on, let's grab some drinks and eat somewhere else."

Jiraiya packed his things with remarkable decisiveness.

Kurenai Yuhi's cooking skills...

While not perfect, Jiraiya considered her more trustworthy than Kushina.

Not long after, the three arrived outside Minato's house.

Sake and snacks were laid out in the courtyard. Jiraiya and Tsunade facing each other, while Kyohiko ate the meat rolls he had brought back.

Jiraiya said, "Tsunade, you're really planning to compete for Hokage, aren't you?"

Tsunade paused in her movement, holding the wine glass.

Then, she nodded slightly.

"Yes, I must fight for it! Our village needs more changes before the next war, but the Old Man is getting old and he's too cautious in his actions, which makes me feel constrained."

"Perfect timing! I gave that old man a piece of my mind today. Let's team up, I'll definitely back you up."

"Ha?"

Tsunade and Kyohiko both showed expressions of surprise.

Jiraiya calmly recounted the process.

Kyohiko quickly took a sip of water to hide his shocked expression.

Is it really that fierce?

I initially thought the Teacher was going to the office to get scolded, but it turns out the Teacher went to have a heated argument with a third-generation hoodlum.

Hey!

It would be a huge loss to miss out on such a spectacular show!

Tsunade was stunned for a long time, glanced at Kyohiko, thought for a moment and commented, "Danzo, you're right, the Old Man has been too Danzo, that guy is too radical."

"Hey!"

Jiraiya sneered, picked up his wine cup, and drank it down.

Kyohiko looked at Tsunade: "Tsunade- neechan, in the struggle for Hokage, any weakness can be fatal. Your Hemophobia..."

Jiraiya was about to drink, but upon hearing the address, he immediately froze, his hands moving as if adrift.

Did I hear that right?

Tsunade... Sister?!

His expression froze, as if his heart had cracked.

Tsunade, however, remained calm.

"It's alright, much better than before. I believe we'll overcome this soon."

She took a sip of her drink to suppress her emotions.

Immediately, Tsunade smiled and said, "By the way, there's something I need to thank you for. I've made some progress in psychology and have been working on advancing mental medicine recently. If there's any progress, you'll definitely have a part in it."

Have you achieved any results?

So fast?

Kyohiko was surprised, and then inquired about the details.

Tsunade talked about her paper and findings, but she was vague about what specific drug she had discovered. It is highly likely that it involves taboos and cannot be disclosed, otherwise Kyohiko would have received feedback long ago.

but.

So, is the possibility of the Psychology Department being added to the agenda?

Medicine is Tsunade's foundation.

This is indeed a good direction.

Kyohiko immediately offered his opinion.

"I think you should strike while the iron is hot, first win over the public, and then push forward the progress of the Psychology Department from the bottom up."

"From bottom to top?"

Tsunade immediately put down her wine glass.

She thought for a moment and vaguely understood what Kyohiko meant.

In the Ninja Wars, Jonin played a crucial role, but in reality, the backbone was always the Chunin, and the elite Chunin.

"When planting trees, if you want to provide them with nutrients, you usually fertilize the soil first, rather than pouring fertilizer directly onto the tree, right?"

Kyohiko said.

Jiraiya wasn't too surprised.

Kyohiko may look young, but he has a unique perspective on things.

Many ninjas may never develop such a mindset until their death, but Kyohiko, at only eight years old, already possesses mature thinking. This child is a born Hokage.

so.

What reason is there not to support a child like this?

I will certainly do my best to guide my disciple, but my approach will be different from yours, Old Man!

I will let him bring out all his talents!

A sense of pride welled up within Jiraiya.

He was certain.

Hiruzen Sarutobi is definitely wrong!

Tsunade was considering a solution. After a moment, she said, "You mean, I Chunin... No! The child, the child is the key to the next generation!"

Her eyes were bright.

In peacetime, only a small percentage of the children in the Ninja Academy may become ninjas, but in times of war and turmoil, most are qualified and capable of becoming ninjas.

In a few years, the children of today's Ninja Academy will become the backbone of the ninja community.

Furthermore, many of their parents were Chunin or even Jonin, members of ninja families, forming a vast network.

They all understand the truth.

However, those in power often forget about these children still in the Ninja Academy.

Tsunade is a case in point.

After being reminded, she immediately pressed down on Kyohiko's shoulder.

"Good brother, I'll remember your contribution. If there ever is Psychology Department, I'll hang your picture at the entrance for everyone to admire!"

"No, I'll be satisfied as long as we get started."

Kyohiko quickly refused.

Hanging at the door...

I'm not even a member of that group.

Tsunade laughed loudly, then picked up her cup to hold it up. "Hanging it by the door is too sour. When I become Hokage, I'll invite you to my office to be my right-hand man!"

"But before that, you have to help me out one more time."

Tsunade grasped Kyohiko's hand. "You have to help me come up with a complete plan, otherwise those old guys definitely won't agree!"

With Kurenai Yuhi's help, Kushina meals were quite edible, and some of the dishes she participated in less of were even quite delicious.

Tsunade Jiraiya's praise made Kurenai Yuhi blush with embarrassment, while Kushina clenched her fists as if she wanted to punch someone.

Whoever marries Kurenai Yuhi will surely be very happy.

Based on the timeline that Kyohiko knows, it's somewhat hellish, since Asuma's happiness didn't last long.

After a hearty meal and drinks, Jiraiya, after careful consideration, did not tell Kushina's Minato to rescue the Uzumaki Clan.

Everything is still Dust.

It's not too late to tell Kushina after we've confirmed it.

That night.

Everyone except the children drank together and returned home in high spirits.

The next day, the entrance to the Ninja Academy was bustling and lively.

because--

Tsunade is here!

The school was immediately filled with noise.

If class wasn't about to start, probably all the children in the school would have run down.

Kyohiko followed silently behind.

A moment later, he followed Tsunade into the office.

This is the principal's office.

Typically, the Hokage serves as the principal of the Ninja Academy, while the secretary or vice-principal usually oversees the affairs from the office.

The current vice principal...

"Mitokado- senpai, I apologize for this intrusion."

"Tsunade."

Mitokado Homura adjusted his glasses and forced a smile. "Have a seat. That child must be Kyohiko Yoshimine, right? Not bad, very talented. In a few years, he'll definitely become a pillar of Konoha."

"It's all thanks to the excellent teaching of the Teacher."

Kyohiko remained neither humble nor arrogant.

Mitokado Homura nodded secretly, then looked at Tsunade.

"Tsunade, you didn't come here this time just to ask me to support you in starting that Psychology Department, did you? If so, you should go talk to Hiruzen first. If he agrees, I won't stop you."

"Definitely not. Even if it were approved now, we wouldn't have enough doctors with that expertise, so it would be pointless."

Tsunade answered with a smile.

This was also the result of her conversation with Kyohiko last night.

One must take things one step at a time.

Currently, it is not yet time to directly promote its application in medicine.

"Tsunade, you've matured!"

Mitokado Homura was overjoyed.

He had expected Tsunade to make a scene about his opposition the day before, but to his surprise, her tone was quite calm, even more so than during the meeting.

"What can I do to help you with? Just tell me, and I'll definitely support you if it's within my power."

"I believe that children are the future of Konoha, and their minds and abilities are not yet mature, so they may have many health problems. Therefore, I want to conduct free clinics at the school."

Tsunade revealed her purpose.

Mitokado Homura was taken aback.

Free clinic?

Is there some ulterior motive?

He was unsure and dared not agree immediately.

but.

Thinking about it carefully, Tsunade is right; the health problems of those children should be taken seriously.

Maybe--

Tsunade just trying to win their favor?

He thought for a moment and said, "Do you have any plans for the free clinic?"

"Yes! In addition to health checks, this free clinic will also screen children suitable for early training as Medical Ninja. So please spread the word that I need assistants and I need to conduct screening and training, starting this afternoon..."

Tsunade revealed her purpose.

Last night, Kyohiko's suggestion to Tsunade was--

Under the guise of free clinics, they actually conduct psychotherapy, while also adding the ostensible purpose of "pre-screening and training."

Neither Hiruzen Sarutobi nor anyone else doubted Tsunade's motives.

certainly.

He didn't know much about psychology and didn't dare to give any substantial advice. He only advised Tsunade to focus on guiding and channeling the children's emotions, allowing them to vent on their own, and then offering suggestions and help.

really.

Upon hearing this, Mitokado Homura suddenly realized what was going on.

"So that's what it was about... Since we agreed to implement it, of course we'll help. Okay, I'll have the Teacher promote it today. We should have results by the second period at the latest. You can then review and screen them yourself during the second period."

"Okay, thank you, Mitokado."

"Everyone is doing this for Konoha. If you have any other requests, please let me know, and I'll make arrangements for you."

Mitokado Homura was extremely pleased.

Tsunade has a bit of a temper, but she's definitely a woman of action!

"I need a large hall and two quiet, enclosed rooms with partitions for examining some less convenient medical conditions."

"Can."

Mitokado Homura agreed without hesitation.

Putting aside political views and ideologies, Mitokado Homura was highly efficient.

In just a moment, he made room for Tsunade and even gave up an office.

At the same time, the matter of the "medical assistant" was also instructed.

At the same time, Kyohiko received a notification.

[You guided a free clinic and psychological medical practice, which promoted the development of the medical field.]

[Reward: Mystical Palm Technique (Proficient)]

Kyohiko was surprised.

Mystical Palm Technique that directly reaches the "proficient" level?

He quietly absorbed the new knowledge and skills that had appeared in his mind.

This knowledge is very useful!

The first part covers knowledge of human cells, bones, blood vessels, internal organs, and Chakra pathways.

These are basic medical facts.

The second part explains how to use Chakra to stimulate the body's healing abilities, thereby maximizing the effectiveness of the Mystical Palm Technique.

For ordinary ninjas, these skills require a significant amount of time to memorize and master.

I've essentially taken direct control of it!

Although it's not something I urgently need, there's no reason to complain about something that's given away for free.

As for technique, his Chakra control was already very refined, so he couldn't perceive subtle changes.

Just as I was pondering this, I heard a sound outside.

"Lady Tsunade, we currently have five people who are interested and capable of becoming your assistants. Would you like to take a look at them?"

Five? That many? Bring them over so we can take a look!

Tsunade became interested.

Medical Ninja require special talents; before she left the village, there might not be more than two talented Genin each year.

She doesn't think Mitokado Homura is completely ignorant about this.

So, this year's batch of students has five of them!

A short while later, the five entered the classroom.

"Lady Tsunade!"

Tsunade's gaze swept across the area.

Four boys, one girl...

Then, she noticed that three people were looking at Kyohiko, and she understood.

They should be in the same grade as Kyohiko.

She smiled slightly and said, "My standards are very high, so even if it's just temporarily serving as my assistant in this free clinic, it's not a job that just anyone can do."

"Yes, we understand!"

All five answered hesitantly.

Tsunade nodded. "Do you know basic medical skills?"

The basic medical skill involves extracting the corresponding Chakra and then mastering the basic ability to stimulate cell growth and healing.

The five nodded.

"Meeting!"

"Okay, Kyohiko..."

Tsunade looked at Kyohiko.

Kyohiko remained silent, but Tsunade required him to cooperate at any time today, so he had no choice but to nod.

In an instant, he vanished.

In the blink of an eye, three birds were struggling and chirping in Kyohiko's hands.

Wow, so fast!

Rin Nohara was secretly shocked.

Then she noticed that their wings were broken.

"Treat."

Kyohiko placed the birds on the table and stared at them.

The five men's faces turned deathly pale.

Tsunade said, "Kyohiko, relax."

"Ah?"

Kyohiko paused for a moment, then looked at Rin Nohara and the others, and immediately realized—

Having gone through the Chunin Ninja Exams, he had killed many people and seemed to have accumulated a similar "killing aura." His unintentional release of that aura just now made it difficult for them to remain calm.

He was thinking about beautiful things, and his overall demeanor gradually softened.

Sorry, I was daydreaming for a moment.

"No, it's nothing!"

Rin Nohara swallowed hard in surprise.

At the Ninja Academy, Kyohiko was a rising star.

Before graduation, few people in the school knew him, but after graduation, news about him came in droves, with big news almost every few days.

There are many evaluations nowadays: strong, genius, comparable to Kakashi, etc.

but.

They had no idea how strong they truly were before graduating, but now, facing their opponent directly, Rin Nohara understood.

This power is...

Even if it's not intentionally targeted, it can still instill genuine fear in them!

Kyohiko looked at Tsunade behind him. "Should I catch two more?"

"No need, you can just reuse it."

Tsunade's gaze swept over them, then she looked at the three of them. "You can heal them. Who wants to go first?"

"I!"

All five answered together.

Tsunade smiled and randomly selected three people.

The three men took charge, examined the wound, and quickly began treatment. Their techniques were very skillful, indicating that they had practiced.

Soon, a substitute came on.

After enduring much suffering, the three birds were finally cured.

Five people stood to one side.

She nodded repeatedly.

Good!

Mitokado Homura is no joke.

However, after thinking for a moment, she asked, "What about more difficult wounds?"

"I've read the book and experimented on some animals, but I'm not very good at it..."

"It's okay, I'll teach you first."

Tsunade said, "Let them introduce themselves."

Kyohiko recognized the name. After a moment's recollection, he vaguely remembered that someone in the Medical Team of later generations seemed to have a name that matched one of theirs.

so.

Are they from the future Medical Team?

Tsunade took out a cloth bag from behind her, which contained several books, and she distributed them one by one.

Then he began to explain Medical Ninjutsu, medical tips and key points, according to the book.

Kyohiko can read Tsunade's book.

As he watched and listened, comparing his observations with his memories, he felt he gained a great deal.

At noon, under Tsunade's control...

Blood was spilling from the mouths of the three birds.

Now, all five of them were drenched in sweat. Only Rin Nohara and one named Kanpo were slightly better off. In the end, they managed to complete the treatment, albeit with some stumbles.

One is left.

Tsunade was about to go up and take action when she caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye, and an idea immediately struck her.

"Kyohiko, do you want to give it a try?"

"I?"

Kyohiko was first surprised, then his heart fluttered.

Perfect!

Use this opportunity to test the knowledge you've gained...

Upon thinking of this, he immediately nodded.

"Good!"

He then stepped forward and began operating the machine.

Chakra input...

Inspect the internal injuries.

The moment the thought arose, the hand moved as if it were instinct, completing the action in one smooth motion.

Kyohiko understood.

This time, the focus isn't on Chakra control techniques, but rather on the perception that extends from Chakra!

At this moment, the bird's internal injuries were as clear as a mirror!

He could clearly sense where the wound was.

So.

Chakra Stimulation!

Kyohiko was completely focused on medical work, unaware of the shock that the outside world was experiencing.

Rin Nohara was completely dumbfounded.

She wasn't sure if Kyohiko had studied it, but the way he was doing it was like that of a seasoned Medical Ninja, not a beginner.

Furthermore, the other party's main business is not healthcare.

Kyohiko's true strength lies in his physical abilities; he certainly hasn't devoted much energy to the medical field.

even.

Perhaps the other person simply learned what they just learned...

As for Tsunade...

He appeared calm on the surface, but inside he was in turmoil.

She was just asking casually, not expecting that Kyohiko could actually do it, and so skillfully and smoothly at that.

You call this a beginner's lesson?

After studying Shizune for over a year, this is about the best I've ever reached!

But where would Kyohiko find the time to research Medical Ninjutsu?

Could it be that Kyohiko is a genius in Medical Ninjutsu?!

Too.

Tsunade careful consideration, Tsunade understood.

Kyohiko already possessed superb and precise Chakra control abilities. As long as he mastered the techniques of Medical Ninjutsu and had the talent in that area, it wouldn't be difficult for him to achieve the current results.

Her gaze was piercing, her eyes burning with desire, and she was deep in thought—

How about we apologize to Jiraiya and take his disciple away?

Anyway...

Jiraiya has not officially confirmed this yet.
