Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu

Chapter 176 A Night Meeting with Tsunade, Rin's Medical Kit (Part 2)

"Yeah?"

Yu Mikami raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "No problem. I'd also like to see Shinku-senpai's swordsmanship again. The sparring in the Forest of Death last time was too short, and I didn't get to enjoy it enough."

[Hatake Sword Technique: Indeed.]

As "Hatake Sword Technique" interjected, the text boxes in the Gaggle System began to subtly change:

[Ding! Special event keywords detected, triggering a time-limited task]

[Hatake Tojutsu yearns to prove herself as the greatest swordsman in the world. Her method is to defeat eight elite swordsmen from different schools, pushing her own limits in battle and proclaiming her glory through victory. Decide whether you wish to help her achieve her goal:]

whether】

"Good heavens—"

Yu Mikami exclaimed, "Wow!"

He hadn't encountered a new special event for a while since completing the "Phoenix Fire Technique" special event. He was wondering if he should try to trigger one, but it happened at this time, and it was triggered by the "Hatake Sword Technique".

only----

The requirements for this task seem a bit high.

Defeat 8 different sword styles — Are there really that many styles in the ninja world?

Hmm—thinking about it carefully, it seems there really is one.

After all, Konoha alone has the "Uchiha-ryu swordsmanship," the "Konoha-ryu swordsmanship," and the secret swords of the Moonlight Clan; in addition, there's Kirigakure, which possesses the Seven Ninja Swords, the Land of Iron, which focuses on training samurai, and Kumogakure, where the "Eight Swords Style" can emerge. All these swordsmanship systems, large and small, add up to quite a few.

If you do all of these, you'll definitely be able to collect 8 types.

But it's definitely not that easy to do.

After all, the communication methods in the ninja world were still somewhat backward, and transportation relied entirely on walking. Before the unrestricted war between the five great nations began, it was no easy task to gather together experts from different ninja villages and have them fight one by one.

so----

We can only take it one step at a time and wipe out the sword styles in Konoha first.

present.

Yu Mikami composed himself, exchanged a few words with Kurenai Yuhi, then saw her to the door. After watching her turn around, he disappeared lightly at the end of the street.

Afterwards, Yuu turned and went back into the house, where he saw his mother, Aoi Mikami, peeking out from the kitchen with a dishcloth in her hand, looking curious: "Yuu, who was that just now? I think I heard a girl's voice, was it Rin?"

"No, it's Kurenai Yuhi. She came to deliver something."

Yu Mikami responded.

"Kurenai Yuhi? Is she the daughter of that Crimson Jonin?"

Mikami Aoi thought for a moment, remembered who the other person was, and then said with a smile, "That child is also very good. Like Xiaolin, they are both very good children. They are beautiful, gentle, and understanding."

"Our Xiaoyou is indeed very popular with girls. If she can be with one of them in the future, your father and I would be very happy to see it —"

"...

'

Is the ninja world pressuring people to get married this early?

How old are they, and they're already thinking about marriage?

Yu was momentarily speechless and could only manage a few perfunctory words before quickly slipping into his room, shutting out Aoi Mikami's smiling gaze.

Afterwards, he took out the wristband that Kurenai Yuhi had given him, tried it on, and after feeling that the size and feel were just right, he took it off and put it in his ninja tool pouch. Then he opened the door again, said goodbye to his mother, and began to head towards the Senju clan's territory to keep his appointment with Tsunade.

It's getting a bit late now.

The sun had already sunk below the horizon, and moonlight flowed down like mercury, illuminating the streets of Konoha Village with twinkling lights.

Several children ran past the roadside, playing and laughing. A stray cat was perched on the wall not far away, and the whole place exuded a tranquil atmosphere.

Yu Mikami walked through the long street, easily finding his way to the Senju clan's territory. He passed by the small courtyard of Kana and Naoto Uzumaki, which he had just helped tidy up that afternoon, and arrived at Tsunade's residence, knocking on the door.

No one answered the knocking.

After waiting for half a minute, when Mikami Yu knocked on the door again, he finally heard Tsunade's voice from inside, tinged with a lazy, damp quality: "Who is it?"

"It's me, Yu Mikami."

A brief silence.

"—Come in."

"6

With the creaking sound of a door turning, Mikami Yu stepped into the courtyard, feeling a rush of air mixed with the fragrance of herbs and warm, humid air. When he looked up, the scene before him made him gasp for breath.

A small lamp hung from the wooden beam above the corridor, illuminating the things below.

Tsunade had clearly just finished bathing and was sitting at a low table, drying her wet, long blonde hair with a large towel.

She was wearing a rather loose, plain-colored yukata with the neckline slightly open, revealing her delicate collarbone and a breathtakingly full curve below.

The yukata, made of a slightly thin material, subtly outlined the voluptuous curves of her body under the light. Her fair skin, glistening with moisture, glowed with a healthy rosy hue, and her slender waist, though loosely draped, revealed astonishing flexibility. Add to that her fair feet casually draped along the edge of the corridor—

She exudes a languid and alluring charm unique to mature women.

Mikami Yu's gaze was unconsciously drawn to the ample bosom beneath the yukata, lingering for a couple of seconds before his Adam's apple bobbed. He quickly looked away, focusing his attention on Tsunade's face: "Tsunade-sama."

"You little rascal, you really know how to pick your time."

Tsunade seemed oblivious to Mikami Yu's lapse in composure, simply wiping her hair and saying irritably, "I told you to come later, that meant you should come sooner. Why are you so late? It's almost eight o'clock. Are you planning to just sleep here?"

"—I was just worried that arriving too early would be inconvenient."

Yu Mikami coughed lightly and explained.

"Is that convenient now?"

Tsunade rolled her eyes at Mikami Yu, then pointed to the opposite side of the low table and casually said, "Come on, sit here."

"it is good."

Yu Mikami did as instructed, obediently sat down cross-legged, and somewhat laboriously shifted his gaze from the two striking giant peaks opposite him to the table below.

He had noticed it earlier; there were many books and scrolls on the low table, seemingly prepared by Tsunade.

Now that he was up close, he could see the covers of these books clearly. Most of them were slightly yellowed and curled at the edges, obviously quite old, but the writing on them was still clearly visible:

"Detailed Explanation of Human Meridians (Annotated by Tobirama Senju)", "Essentials of Chakra Scalpel (Draft)", "Toxicology and First Aid", "An Initial Exploration of Cell Activation" — each book is substantial, and the titles alone convey the weight of knowledge.

"This is----"

"This is something I collected and wrote in my early years; it's a secret of the Senju clan."

Tsunade put down the towel, letting her half-dry blonde hair fall loosely over her shoulders, causing the collar of her yukata to slip down a little: "Since you want to become my apprentice, then don't even think about being lazy. The most important thing for a medical ninja is knowledge. You need to master these things first before you're qualified to learn anything else."

'

Yu Mikami looked at the stack of books, which was almost half a meter high, and his face darkened: No, when will we ever finish reading this?

[Ding! A special gift item has been detected that can be given as a gift—Healing Technique: The Medical Heritage of the Senju Clan (Basic Edition)!]

Huh?

Oh, so this thing counts as a gift? Never mind then.

I'll copy a few books down for "Healing Techniques" to learn first, and then let Healing Techniques teach me. That should be much faster than trying to figure it out on my own.

Mikami Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

opposite.

Tsunade, unaware that Mikami Yu had found a way to cheat, continued to look at him with amusement, her body leaning slightly forward. The collar of her yukata opened a little wider with this movement, revealing her snow-white skin and deep cleavage, which appeared even more dazzling under the light: "What, do you think it's too much? Are you scared?"

"No, that's not it—it just feels like a very difficult task, and I don't know how long it will take to complete."

"Hmph, good to know."

Tsunade sat up straight again and said slowly, "How about this, I'll set you a small goal: within two months, thoroughly understand all these books and master their core points. If you can do that—then I can teach you some of my most treasured secrets as a reward."

"A reward? —"

Can I carry this myself?

Yu Mikami glanced at Tsunade's radiant face, so close to his, her fair and slender neck, and the curves beneath her yukata—a daring thought flashed through his mind uncontrollably, but he forcibly suppressed it: "I understand."

After a pause, Mikami Yu asked again, "By the way, can I let others see these books?"

"Others? You mean Nohara Rin, right?"

Tsunade hit the nail on the head.

Yu Mikami nodded, making no attempt to hide anything: "Yes, Rin is also quite talented in medical ninjutsu, and her foundation is very solid. If we study together, the efficiency should be higher."

"Alright, I know you two are close. Even if I don't agree, you'll still secretly teach her, right? Let me make this clear: don't lose or damage it while you're studying. In two months, I'll personally test you both. If you fail—don't blame me for teaching you what respect for your teachers is."

Tsunade clenched her fist, her knuckles making a crisp cracking sound, the threat unmistakable.

"Yes, sir! Mission accomplished!"

Mikami raised his head and replied.

"Alright, let's take these things and head back quickly, it's getting dark."

Tsunade dismissed them, then picked up the towel again to wipe the water droplets from her hair, her posture languid and casual.

Given that it was indeed getting late, and considering Tsunade's current attire, staying any longer would be inappropriate and could potentially lead to trouble. Therefore, Mikami Yu picked up his book, said goodbye to Tsunade, and then turned to leave. Only after stepping out of the courtyard and feeling the night breeze did he finally let out a long sigh of relief, feeling the heat on his face subside slightly.

Indeed, compared to Nohara Rin and Yuhi Kurenai, who are still teenagers, Tsunade's mature feminine charm is far more alluring. Especially after just emerging from a bath and dressed loosely, it's hard not to let one's imagination run wild and conjure up some inappropriate images for children.

"Let's go home first. Tomorrow I have to teach Rin ninjutsu, and there's also my duel with Yuhi Shinku—"

Yu Mikami shook his head, suppressed his distracting thoughts, and hurried home.

Silent all night.

The next morning, after having breakfast at home, Mikami Yu went out to meet Nohara Rin, and together they went to the training ground on the west side of the village. As agreed the day before, he would teach Nohara Rin a new water-style ninjutsu.

The teaching process is not complicated.

Mikami Yu's proficiency in "Water Wall" and "Water Dragon Bullet" was already quite high, making him more than capable of instructing Nohara Rin. After several demonstrations and explanations, Nohara Rin practiced repeatedly by the stream, while Mikami Yu went to the other side of the area to practice his swordsmanship.

The morning passed quietly amidst the roar of the flowing water and the sound of blades cutting through the air.

Around noon, the two stopped and found a shady spot to sit down and rest before having lunch.

Nohara Rin casually took out two lunch boxes from her ninja tool bag and handed one to Mikami Yu: "Um, Yu-kun, this is a bento I specially prepared this morning. Consider it payment for your lessons. Thank you for taking the time to teach me ninjutsu."

-

"Also—there's this."

Nohara Rin took out another bulging little bag, held it out with both hands, and handed it over. This time, her voice was a little more nervous. "A few days ago, you went out of the village with Minato-sensei on a mission, and I haven't had a chance to congratulate you on your promotion to Special Jonin. This is a medical kit I made myself. In addition to the usual bandages, disinfectant, and antidote, there are also some special wound medicines and soldier's rations. I hope you can use them!"

"Um?"

Yu Mikami vaguely remembered this scene.

It seems that in the original storyline, Rin Nohara prepared a medical kit as a gift for Kakashi's promotion to Jonin. Therefore—

Has it been changed to what he prepared now?

Although Yu Mikami felt that being promoted to Special Grade wasn't anything special and there was no need to congratulate him, since it was Rin Nohara's kind gesture, he solemnly thanked her, accepted the medical kit, and promised to use it properly.

Seeing this, Nohara Rin's face lit up with a bright smile, as if the sunlight itself shone even brighter: "Yes! I'm glad I could help Yu-kun!"

"Let's eat first."

Yu Mikami opened his lunchbox and started eating with Rin Nohara.

Just as they were eating, a series of hurried footsteps approached, accompanied by a loud, boisterous voice that shattered the tranquility of the training ground: "Hey—! You! Lin! You guys were secretly training here again! That's too much! You didn't even call me!"

Obito, however, rushed into the training field in a flurry of activity, his goggles askew on his forehead, looking utterly displeased.

"What does 'secretly cultivating' mean?"

Mikami Yu glanced at him, continuing to chew his rice ball. "Isn't this training area we use regularly? There aren't any signs prohibiting you from entering. Besides, didn't you come here yourself?"

"That's different!"

Obito, hands on his hips, declared confidently, "You guys should have notified me beforehand! I'm a man destined to become Hokage, how can I fall behind! Yu, after dinner, let's spar. My Fire Release has improved a lot these past few days, I'll definitely surprise you this time!"
