Konoha: Starting with Sage Mode

However, Kirito's medical ninja talent was simply too tempting for him.

Kirito is so young, yet he can already make a hemostatic pill with a C-level difficulty level on his own so quickly. If he continues to be trained, he will definitely become an important pillar of the medical team in the future.

The abilities of medical ninjas are not only reflected in medical ninjutsu, but also in the production and research of medicines, and these two aspects are very important.

Medical ninjas have limited chakra, so their healing abilities are naturally limited as well.

However, as long as there are enough medicinal materials, medicine can be mass-produced and used in conjunction with medical ninjutsu to cure more people.

Furthermore, Kirito once demonstrated exceptional chakra manipulation skills, easily healing an injured fish. He has no problem mastering advanced medical ninjutsu like Healing Palm Technique, and could definitely become an outstanding medical ninja. Perhaps he might even become a powerful medical ninja like Tsunade.

Konoha's medical team is currently lacking a talented junior like Kirito.

Chapter 27: Practical Lessons

"Medical class? Teacher Zhu Yun, have you finally agreed to teach me medical ninjutsu?"

Upon hearing Nara Shuun's words, Kirito realized that the opportunity he had been waiting for was finally here, and he said excitedly.

"No, it's just that you're going there to learn. But it won't be free. You'll be using your pharmaceutical skills to help the heroes on the front lines make pills. As for learning medical ninjutsu, you're still a long way off."

Nara Zhuyun pressed Kirito's head down with his large hand, rubbed it vigorously, and shook his head with a smile.

He couldn't make any promises too easily now. If Mito-sama disagreed, wouldn't he be embarrassed and unable to maintain his authority as a teacher in front of Kirito in the future?

"Can I help the heroes on the front lines?"

Kirito said excitedly again.

What a great opportunity! I can use this to get plenty of practice opportunities in the medical class, and even learn more about medical knowledge and herbal recipes.

You absolutely must seize this internship opportunity.

Making pills is not a simple process. Even with a recipe and knowledge, without sufficient experience, there is still a very high failure rate.

He invested a lot of money to successfully make the hemostatic pill. After all, the price of medicinal materials is very high now. If it weren't for the support of the pharmacist Nono's restaurant and his occasional production and sale of sealing talismans and sealing scrolls, he would have gone bankrupt long ago and would never have succeeded so quickly.

There are also biological experiments, which are a bottomless pit.

In short, he is currently short of money, but also lacks the ability to make a lot of money.

Selling medicine is a good option.

"No problem. Your ability to successfully make the hemostatic pills is already enough to help the heroes fighting bravely on the front lines."

Nara Akane nodded firmly, which made Kirito even happier, and he said he definitely wanted to go to the medical team.

"What a good boy. Go tell the Third Hokage about this later and have him speak to Lady Mito on his behalf. Kirito needs to further his medical knowledge."

Nara Zhuyun thought to himself.

Soon after, Nara Shuun's report fell into the hands of the Third Generation.

"To join the medical team?"

After reading Nara Shuun's report, the third generation had doubts.

Nara Shuyun's report highlighted Kirito's outstanding talent as a medical ninja and pleaded with him to allow Kirito to study in the medical class.

The Third Hokage was confident that he could persuade Mito to allow Kirito to study in the medical corps, because Tsunade herself was an excellent medical ninja, and if Kirito could truly become an excellent medical ninja, he would definitely be able to help Tsunade.

However, rather than making Kirito a medical ninja, the Third Hokage preferred that Kirito become a powerful combat ninja.

He had been paying close attention to Kirito's performance at school for the past two years.

Kirito excels not only in theoretical classes but also in practical classes.

The teachers at the Ninja Academy have repeatedly told him that Kirito already possesses Chunin-level strength solely through taijutsu, and that strength is still increasing at an extremely rapid pace.

Furthermore, he has already cultivated the lightning-attribute chakra nature and mastered several lightning-style ninjutsu.

Needless to say, Kirito has mastered the Four Symbols Sealing Technique under the tutelage of Lady Mito. If it weren't for his insufficient chakra nature, he could even use the Five Elements Sealing Technique on his own.

Without a doubt, Kirito, who is only 8 years old, is already stronger than many Chunin.

If it weren't for insufficient chakra reserves, and he were only at the level of an ordinary Chunin, he might have had the potential to become a Special Jonin.

"Judging by the time, the school's practical training should have started by now. Let me see how the seedlings have grown recently."

The third generation glanced at the clock on the wall and thought to himself.

He then decisively stopped working, took out a crystal ball from the drawer, and used his telescope technique.

Soon, the scene of the ninja school playground appeared in the crystal ball.

Meanwhile, on the ninja academy's training ground, Kirito's Class A was having a practical combat lesson led by their homeroom teacher, Wasabi Mitarashi. Groups of students formed combat seals and began to fight. After the battle, the two formed reconciliation seals.

Chizuru, who was mixed in with the crowd, suddenly activated her Sharingan, then quickly closed it again, letting out a cold snort.

"what happened?"

Kirito, standing to the side, asked in confusion.

In the past two years, he has frequently fought against his opponent, with each side winning and losing. In the past year, however, his opponent's chakra reserves and ninjutsu have improved by leaps and bounds, resulting in more defeats than victories for him.

It has to be said that the Uchiha's power is formidable. Ever since they awakened their two-tomoe Sharingan, their strength has increased at an extremely rapid pace.

If it weren't for his immortal physique, which allowed him to absorb natural energy to cheat, the support of the Senju clan, and the abundance of training resources such as medicinal cuisine, medicinal baths, and instructors for ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu, he would probably have been far surpassed by his opponent long ago.

The poor rely on mutations, the rich rely on technology.

Chizuru has both advantages: she not only possesses the Sharingan, which allows her to evolve and mutate, but she is also the granddaughter of the clan leader, making her a true member of the wealthy class with abundant training resources and precious ninjutsu.

Sasuke wasn't particularly strong when he was young, undoubtedly mainly because of the loss of the Uchiha clan. Otherwise, given his status as the clan leader's son and his talent as the reincarnation of Indra, with ample training resources and precious ninjutsu available, he wouldn't have been much weaker than Itachi at the same age when he graduated, if not stronger.

"Nothing much, just discovered that some annoying old guy was spying on us again. It's really irritating."

Chizuru said with dissatisfaction.

After her Sharingan evolved to the two-tomoe stage, she could see the chakra in other people and its flow, and her chakra perception was greatly enhanced.

Just now, she noticed a surge of chakra above her head, which made her feel disgusted by being spied on.

She had discovered this chakra many times before, and later when she went back to ask her grandfather, she learned that it was a ninjutsu used by the Third Hokage to monitor the village.

Upon hearing this, Kirito simply smiled and remained silent.

Thanks to his excellent chakra sensing ability, he also noticed the sudden appearance of chakra and knew that it was the Third Hokage using the telescope technique by employing the sealing barrier that covered the entire village.

In fact, he has ways to retaliate.

His two years of learning sealing techniques under Mito's tutelage were not in vain; he is now capable of performing advanced sealing techniques such as the Four Symbols Sealing Technique, the Inner Four Symbols Sealing Technique, and the Eight Trigrams Sealing Technique.

Although being spied on is unpleasant, he can only endure it for now.

As for calling the third generation a peeping tom, let's just forget about it. Who knows if the third generation can read lips? We'll make things difficult for him later.

A small leak will sink a great ship.

"Kirito Tohsaka, Chizuru Uchiha, step forward."

Wasabi Mitarashi said to the two of them.

"I hope you can give me some fun this time, otherwise you'll lose to me like you did yesterday."

Chizuru turned to Kirito and said coldly.

"How terrifying. I just finished a pretty good ninjutsu recently, so I'll show it to you."

Kirito smiled.

On the other side, Nawaki said to Mitarai Wasabi with a dissatisfied look, "Sensei, why are they fighting again? Why do I have to fight them?"

He also really wanted to fight Kirito and Chizuru. Although he often practiced fighting with the two in private, he never got a chance to fight them in class, which made him a little resentful.

"Do you really enjoy getting beaten up? You're such a simpleton."

Upon hearing this, Wasabi Mitarashi sighed inwardly and decisively gave Nawaki a hard whack on the head to make him behave.

This child is lacking in education. Although he has matured a lot in the past two years, he is still carefree in class.

As Chizuru and Kirito arrived, the spectators instinctively moved away from them to avoid being affected by their battle, their faces revealing expressions of envy, awe, or admiration.

Having spent so much time together, their classmates were well aware that the two were at a different level than them.

Apart from Rope Tree, who can still keep up with the two, no one else in the class can compete with them.

After the two formed their battle seals, the battle officially began with Wasabi Mitarashi's command.

The two threw out a kunai almost simultaneously.

"Ding ~"

The next moment, the two kunai collided in mid-air, making a sharp clanging sound.

Sparks flew everywhere.

After the first spark appeared, several more sparks appeared.

"Ding ding ding~"

A series of collision sounds occurred.

Kirito and Chizuru quickly caught the rebounding kunai and then engaged in close combat at lightning speed.

The two fought so fast that only Wasabi Mitarashi, Nawaki, Ino-Shika-Cho, and a little girl who had activated her Byakugan could see them clearly. Everyone else only saw two blurry afterimages and a few flashes of lightning.

"Hmm~, this level of speed is already at the level of an elite Chunin. It's only been a short time since we last met, and the two of you have improved a lot. You are truly formidable young talents."

The third generation looked at the scene in the crystal ball and exclaimed in admiration.

But soon, a hint of apprehension appeared in his eyes as he looked at Chizuru.

He understood what Chizuru had just said.

Chapter 28: Magnetism

"Hurry up and give me your full strength!"

After a brief exchange, Chizuru's feet crackled with electricity, unleashing an even faster speed than before, instantly appearing behind Kirito and kicking him away.

Chizuru is naturally drawn to chakra that can transform into both fire and lightning natures.

In order to surpass Kirito in speed, she successfully trained in lightning style, her second chakra nature transformation, over the past two years. Then, with the help of a Jonin of the Uchiha clan who was proficient in lightning release ninjutsu, she learned a secret technique to temporarily enhance her speed by stimulating her body with lightning style chakra.
