N-A-A Chapter 70 That woman is terrifying...
Chapter 70 That woman is terrifying...
"Next time you want to spray something in my face, I hope you can ask for my opinion first."
Looking at Uchiha Ike calmly tidying his appearance.
Kurenai Yuhi opened her mouth in a daze, her deep red eyes sparkling, reflecting the boy's calm smile, as if she wanted to etch this scene into her mind.
She immediately realized her rudeness.
"I'm sorry," she quickly apologized in a low voice, trying to explain, "I didn't mean to..."
But the other person put their index finger to her lips, interrupting her.
"Shh." Uchiha Ike said with a serious expression, "Our teammates are doing their best to buy us time. We can't waste their efforts."
As he spoke, Uchiha Ike extended his hand with distinct knuckles, clearly preparing to treat Kurenai Yuhi's wounds.
As she watched the hand slowly press down on her chest, Kurenai's expression froze slightly, and a blush appeared on her pale face, which was pale from her injury.
She has never had any physical contact with any man.
But remembering what the other person had just said, she pursed her lips and remained silent.
Kakashi was still buying them time on the other side of the earthen wall, so he didn't have time to care about this delicate contact.
However, just as she made up her mind, Uchiha Ike suddenly flipped her wrist and turned the back of her hand towards Kurenai Yuhi.
"Feel sorry."
Uchiha Ike apologized softly and gently pressed the back of his hand against her wound.
A green glow emanated from his hand as he guided and released palm magic on the wound, his movements as gentle as wiping morning dew from flower petals.
[A trigger detected from Kurenai Yuhi!]
[Gain 15 points and increase defense by 3%!]
Watching the boy intently treating her, Kurenai's initially stiff body gradually relaxed.
"You actually know medical ninjutsu..." Kurenai Yuhi stared blankly at the green light in Uchiha Ike's palm.
This was the first time she had met an Uchiha who could use medical ninjutsu.
It should be noted that the Uchiha clan is born with the bloodline capable of awakening the Sharingan.
Awakening a single or double tomoe Sharingan is equivalent to being a top-tier Chunin, while awakening a triple tomoe Sharingan is comparable to being a mid-tier Jonin in the village.
It is precisely because of this exaggerated background that most Uchiha people have a relatively strong personality.
It's important to understand that a mid-sized ninja clan in the upper echelons can usually only train one or two Jonin, but for the Uchiha, each of them is born with the opportunity to become a Jonin. Any other ninja clan would be arrogant if they had such talent.
In such an atmosphere, naturally no one would waste time learning medical ninjutsu.
However......
Looking at the boy's focused profile.
A hint of amazement flashed in Yuhi's beautiful eyes.
Uchiha Ike seems to be a little different from those arrogant Uchiha.
"Because my talent is mediocre."
As Uchiha Ike treated Kurenai Yuhi, he explained with a smile.
His lips curled slightly upward, but with an indescribable bitterness in them.
"I have neither the talent to awaken the Sharingan nor any good ninja skills."
"So I can only work hard in other areas. Fortunately, I seem to have a decent talent for learning medical ninjutsu."
Kurenai Yuhi fell silent.
Having grown up in a ninja clan herself, she naturally knew what kind of neglect an ordinary boy like Uchiha Ike would receive in a ninja clan.
She had seen far too many examples like this.
"It's already very good..."
Kurenai offered a somewhat awkward attempt at comforting someone; she wasn't good at it.
"I also tried training in medical ninjutsu, but I gave up in the end."
Learning medical ninjutsu on your own is too difficult. Just the bunch of professional terms feels like reading gibberish. So, although she was interested, she didn't spend time studying it further.
Therefore, she truly admired Uchiha Ike, who was from the Uchiha clan, for his skillful use of medical ninjutsu.
"Is that so?" Uchiha Ike smiled noncommittally. "I'm actually quite interested in genjutsu, but unfortunately, I don't have the talent..."
Kurenai's eyes brightened slightly, curving into two crescent moons: "Then we can exchange ideas in the future."
Uchiha Ike smiled genuinely: "Okay."
boom!
Just as the atmosphere on their side was becoming increasingly harmonious.
A loud bang came from behind them, and the entire earthen wall broke open, with large chunks of soil crumbling apart.
A figure was thrown into the air like a tattered sack, and after landing, it kicked up a thick cloud of dust, rolled about seven or eight times, and finally stopped at Uchiha Ike's feet.
"Cough cough..."
Kakashi, hailed as the youngest Chunin in history, was now covered in bruises and swelling, with virtually no unscathed flesh on his body.
With his eyes swollen as if he had been stung by a bee, Kakashi struggled to open them, his gaze meeting that of Uchiha Ike, who had been looking down at him.
After a two-second silence and staring at each other, Kakashi spoke first.
"Be careful."
He struggled to tug at his injured lip, a strange fear flickering in his listless, dead-fish eyes: "That woman... she's a monster..."
This was the first time in Kakashi's life that he had ever seen someone use brute force to smash through an earth wall.
Even the dog head carved on it was reduced to fragments.
Just as he finished speaking, light footsteps came from the direction Kakashi had come from.
The next second, a graceful figure in high heels walked on the broken earthen wall, looking down at this side.
Tsunade gently brushed her golden hair aside with her right hand, looking at Uchiha Ike's glowing palm. A hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes: "Healing Palm Technique? It seems you do indeed have the talent to become a medical ninja."
"Thank you for the compliment, Tsunade-sensei," Uchiha Ike said modestly. "I just practiced for a little longer than usual."
Tsunade shook her head; she did not agree with Uchiha Ike's statement.
Unlike combat ninjas who can use the Three Body Techniques, medical ninjas have never been a system without barriers to entry.
Not everyone can study medicine; it requires talent, skill, intelligence, patience...
To become a medical ninja, these abilities are indispensable.
For example, Kurenai Yuhi also tried to learn medical ninjutsu, but because no one in her family was proficient in medicine, and self-study was too difficult, she had no choice but to give up in the end.
But Uchiha Ike did it.
Although the Palm Healing Technique is a skill that everyone in the medical department must have, it is also a genuine A-rank ninjutsu, requiring a significant time investment to practice.
But Uchiha Ike learned it on his own.
This talent... might allow him to inherit my mantle.
Thinking of this, Tsunade's mood instantly brightened, and a bright smile, like a flower bud blooming, appeared on her pretty face, making the whole world seem a little brighter.
"Have you decided? Who's next?"
Kakashi struggled to get up, straining every muscle in his body, but he fell back down as soon as he left the ground.
Kurenai clutched her chest with a distressed expression, trying to stand up by supporting herself with her hands on the ground, but her shoulders were gently pressed down.
She looked up and saw that Uchiha Ike's eyes were full of smiles.
"Get some rest, leave the rest to me."
