Kiyoshi Gen took another step.

"and many more!"

"What is it now!"

Tsunade looked at Kiyoi Gen, who was looking impatient, and asked shyly.

"Could you lend me some money?"

Swish!

Kiyoi Gen arrived next to Tsunade almost instantly, raised his right hand, and poked her head with his index finger.

"I'll let you borrow money! I'll let you borrow money!"

"No! Don't poke my head!"

Tsunade covered her head and didn't dare to fight back.

There was nothing she could do; she was the one who borrowed the money, putting her in a vulnerable position.

"At worst, I'll go to the quarry tomorrow, earn the money, and pay you back!"

At this point, Kiyoi Gen stopped poking Tsunade's head.

Tsunade slowly raised her head, her face still flushed from drinking.

She looked at Kiyoshi Gen's stern face, wondering what he was thinking.

If she could borrow money from the underworld, why would she have asked Kiyoshi Gen for a loan?

Besides, Kiyoi Gen is probably the richest person in Konoha right now, so lending him a little bit wouldn't be a bad idea.

She really won't waste money anymore.

Stare~

Kiyoi Gen sat back down opposite Tsunade.

"No, you won't have to go to the quarry anymore."

"why?"

Tsunade was completely bewildered. How was she supposed to make money?

"I'll give you whatever you want from now on, no matter how much it costs. I'll take care of you."

"As long as you promise me that you will carefully organize medical data in the future, not only to teach me how to use the silent method, but also to make this medical data available for reference by ordinary people."

"It would be a waste to waste your talent on stone research; studying medicine is what you should be doing."

Tsunade looked at Kiyoi Gen, feeling a mix of emotions she couldn't quite describe.

This is the first time someone has expressed such a strong desire to fully support her medical research.

Even if it was a break, it was only to support her in training medical ninjas for Konoha and to support the medical ninja equipment recommendations she made at the meeting.

"Wait, you said to use ordinary people as a reference?"

Qingjingyuan nodded solemnly.

"Yes, my chamber of commerce has also collected many medical classics."

"However, these medical classics contain a great deal of repetition, and there are many places where there are also uncertain speculations."

"There is a lack of someone to organize all the current medical knowledge into a system for future generations to learn from and refer to."

Even in the present-day City of the Sunrise, the path to medicine is still the same old one, and they are exploring ways to summarize and unify medical knowledge.

Kiyoshi Gen couldn't offer any help in this regard; they'd have to figure it out themselves.

Simply put, medical knowledge is too diverse, and there is no unified classic to categorize and summarize all symptoms together.

Ideally, we should divide the treatment into two approaches: one that can be treated with chakra and the other that can be treated using conventional methods.

Achieving medical unification would be an absolutely monumental achievement that will benefit future generations!

Tsunade lowered her head.

It feels like I'm being given very high expectations.

"I...I only know how to drink and gamble."

"It has to be you!"

Tsunade opened her mouth and spoke again.

"I'm not that good."

"Only you can do it!"

What?

Tsunade secretly glanced at Kiyoi Gen, whose eyes were filled with anticipation, as if he were looking at some rare treasure.

I'm not that great.

Let her do something that will clearly change the medical field.

She initially learned medical ninjutsu simply so that someone could treat her comrades when they were injured.

Let her organize medical classics or something right now.

Tsunade realized that she seemed to have underestimated Kiyoi Gen's confidence in her.

Why is Kiyoi Gen so certain that she can do something like that?!

"Tsunade."

“I’m telling you this very seriously.”

Kiyoshi Gen's expression was very serious.

"Your talent will absolutely shine in the field of medicine! You are already recognized worldwide as a first-class medical ninja."

"What you should do now is take this a step further."

"If you agree, I will cover all the expenses required for your research."

"I'll cover all your living expenses, even your gambling debts!"

When he said this, Kiyoi Gen decided that if Tsunade ever wanted to gamble, he would buy up every casino before she even went there.

This kind of transfer from left hand to right hand is not unacceptable.

Tsunade held the wine glass in her right hand and then secretly glanced at Kiyoi Gen.

Hearing that the other party valued her so much made her extremely happy.

But there's also a doubt that I can't do it.

I'm afraid of letting others down.

Am I really that amazing?

"Have!"

Kiyoshi Gen firmly affirmed.

He simply had such faith in Tsunade's medical research abilities.

Why were you so sure so quickly?

Tsunade was struggling internally.

Being recognized by others can be both a motivation and a pressure.

For Tsunade right now, this recognition is a kind of pressure.

"I developed hemophobia because of something, and I can no longer be a medical ninja."

Tsunade lowered her head, looking somewhat dejected.

Although she had wanted to agree to Kiyoshi Gen's request immediately, she also had to consider reality.

Hemophobia is far too deadly for a medical ninja.

Kiyoshi Gen fell into deep thought.

Indeed, Tsunade's hemophobia is a problem that must be addressed.

After all, even the process of compiling and verifying data can very likely involve contact with blood.

"Tsunade, do you believe me?"

"I think there's a way we can try."

"It's possible to cure your hemophobia."

Chapter 157 New Goals

Curing hemophobia?!

Tsunade was extremely surprised.

In the current medical history of Konoha, there are very few successful cases of mental health treatment. The few that exist are usually sudden and have little to do with the treatment itself.

Why was Kiyoi Gen so confident in curing her hemophobia?

"Tsunade, tell me in detail why you have hemophobia."

"May I?"

"Um"

Why are you suddenly being so polite?

Tsunade swallowed hard, and without hesitation, recounted her experience.

She felt there was no problem in telling Kiyoshi Gen.

So, Kiyoi Gen listened to Tsunade's own account of Nawaki and Kato Dan's path to death.

"I see."

"Yes, we can try."

"It's worth a try."
