I Want to Learn Medical Ninjutsu

If he had arrived a little earlier, Uchiha Yansheng would have feared no threat with his talent alone.

But unfortunately, he only had a few short years. Facing two pairs of Mangekyo Sharingan and the hostility of nearly all of Konoha Village, he had no confidence at all.

The gap between the Mangekyo Sharingan and the Three-Tomoe Sharingan was far too great. It was not something talent alone could overcome.

Fortunately, he had already spoken with Minato Namikaze at length through a Shadow Clone Technique yesterday.

Although the other party might not believe him, leaking the information in advance might prevent the Nine-Tails' Attack.

As long as Minato Namikaze remained alive, the chances of the Uchiha Clan Massacre occurring should decrease considerably.

But for now, improving his own strength was what mattered most.

"Brother Inabi, does the clan have any medical ninja? I want to learn some Medical Ninjutsu."

After breakfast, Uchiha Yansheng hesitated for a moment before speaking to Uchiha Inabi.

At those words, Uchiha Inabi's expression immediately turned ugly.

"Yansheng, where did you hear about Medical Ninjutsu?"

"You have great talent. You should not waste it on Medical Ninjutsu."

Uchiha Inabi's stance was resolute, and his voice was exceptionally stern. There was even a faint trace of killing intent in it.

Faced with Uchiha Inabi's anger, Uchiha Yansheng showed no fear whatsoever. His expression remained calm.

Yet that calmness on his small, childlike body somehow looked rather naïve.

"Brother Inabi, don't be hasty. Since I have decided to study Medical Ninjutsu, I naturally have my reasons."

Uchiha Inabi snorted coldly at those words but did not argue. He merely silently resolved to stop the other boy's childish behavior.

But the next moment, as he watched Uchiha Yansheng skillfully walk up the wall all the way to the ceiling, Uchiha Inabi's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Generally speaking, ninja had good physical constitutions. Otherwise, they could not extract chakra from their bodies. But no matter how talented a ninja was, they still had to follow the laws of growth.

Normally, only students around eleven or twelve years old, on the verge of graduating from the Ninja Academy, possessed enough chakra to practice chakra control techniques such as tree climbing and water walking.

But geniuses had never followed common sense.

"Get down quickly! How long have you even been extracting chakra? At your age, using chakra like this will exhaust you before long."

Hearing Uchiha Inabi's anxious words, Uchiha Yansheng obediently walked down from the ceiling.

Thanks to his excellent chakra control, merely walking on walls did not consume much chakra.

But naturally, there was no need for Uchiha Yansheng to explain that.

"Brother Inabi, that is why I want to learn Medical Ninjutsu."

"I have already learned every ninjutsu you taught me and successfully mastered chakra techniques for tree climbing and water walking."

"But I have too little chakra right now. I need to improve my chakra control, and learning Medical Ninjutsu is the perfect path."

For a moment, Uchiha Inabi fell silent.

After a long while, Uchiha Inabi spoke with a complicated expression. "I cannot make the decision on this. I will report it to the clan head and let him decide."

After saying that, Uchiha Inabi left as though fleeing.

Naturally, Uchiha Inabi was happy that such a genius had appeared in the clan, but he also felt immense pressure himself.

Watching Uchiha Inabi leave, Uchiha Yansheng remained calm and continued eating breakfast at an unhurried pace.

Before long, Uchiha Inabi met the clan head, who was "burdened with countless affairs."

To ordinary clan members, Fugaku Uchiha was an untouchably important figure.

But in truth, meeting him was quite easy. Unlike other ninja, the Uchiha Clan did not need to frequently leave the village to carry out missions, so they were actually quite idle within the village.

His conversation with Fugaku Uchiha did not last long. Uchiha Yansheng merely passed a test and gained the qualification to seek someone out and learn Medical Ninjutsu.

Fugaku Uchiha's attitude was fairly decent, but only fairly decent.

Perhaps it was because the degree of talent Uchiha Yansheng had displayed was not impressive enough, or perhaps it was the arrogance of a clan head.

In any case, Uchiha Yansheng did not develop any favorable impression of him.

Of course, he had never particularly liked this so-called clan head to begin with.

Over the following days, Uchiha Yansheng began devoting himself to studying Medical Ninjutsu.

Konoha Village had a considerable amount of material on Medical Ninjutsu, but there were actually very few medical techniques that could be put into practice. Most of it consisted of theories, diseases, and similar subjects.

Uchiha Yansheng even found quite a few records resembling human experimentation among the Medical Ninjutsu materials.

"The ninja world seems to have taken a path of genetic technological development."

Looking at the materials in his hands and recalling the brief information in his mind concerning the Ōtsutsuki Clan, Uchiha Yansheng came up with an interesting idea.

After that, Uchiha Yansheng began devoting his energy to researching chakra.

In this world, everyone knew that chakra was formed from a combination of physical energy and spiritual energy.

But in reality, chakra originated from the Ōtsutsuki Clan and was an external power.

Yet no one in the Ninja World had ever concerned themselves with what chakra truly was.

Therefore, Uchiha Yansheng could not find what he wanted in the Uchiha Clan's collection of books.

Since he could not find what he wanted, he could only research it himself, and that required funding.

At times like this, the Transformation Technique proved extremely useful.

Although the Transformation Technique was a ninjutsu that ninja could easily see through and had to be used cautiously most of the time, it was already perfect when dealing with civilians.

Money was easy to acquire, and Uchiha Yansheng did not need much of it in the early stages.

But laboratory space, equipment, and energy were major problems. Compared to those, ordinary experimental instruments were actually the easiest things to obtain.

A few days later, with Uchiha Inabi's help, Uchiha Yansheng successfully signed a summoning contract with the Ninja Cat Clan.

But unlike the other summoned beast clans of the Ninja World, the ninja cats were not particularly outstanding in combat. At times, they seemed less like ninja beasts and more like partners.

But for Uchiha Yansheng, such a relationship was exactly right.

Thus, Uchiha Yansheng chose the area near the Ninja Cat Clan as the location for his laboratory.

Uchiha Yansheng expended great effort to reach an agreement with the Ninja Cat Clan, but precisely because of that, he earned a fairly good standing among them.

With all preparations complete, Uchiha Yansheng began his research into chakra.

Time passed little by little, until one day three years later...
