The fabric, tugged by gravity, accentuated her graceful curves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very accurate,\" Kitazawa replied, stepping forward and leaning in to kiss her gently on the lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mmm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai instinctively straightened, looping her arms around his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa’s left hand slid up her back, while the right casually squeezed her backside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai’s eyes snapped open like she’d been jolted by electricity. Blushing faintly, she stepped back half a pace and gave him a pointed look. \"You’re naughty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the slight upturn of her lips betrayed her amusement—charming and mischievous all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa took her hand and pulled her close again. Her soft, warm body nestled into his chest, her delicate scent lingering between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady Tsunade’s already here,\" Kurenai murmured, giving his chest a playful tap with her fist. \"She’s waiting for you in the living room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a reluctant sigh, Kitazawa let her go, stepped out of his shoes, and made his way inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsunade was sprawled lazily on the couch, long legs extended, her flawless feet propped shamelessly on the coffee table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa resisted the urge to scold her. He needed her to teach him medical ninjutsu—it was not the time to argue over furniture manners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shizune,\" Tsunade called, shifting slightly and resting her chin in her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The motion tugged her neckline downward, threatening to reveal more than modesty allowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t look,\" Kurenai whispered sharply into Kitazawa’s ear before addressing the room, \"I’ll head to the rooftop to check on Yakumo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secret Ninjutsu training—especially Medical Ninjutsu—was frowned upon in Konoha. Kurenai left with quiet understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa sighed, feeling a twinge of injustice. Tsunade might be dignified outside, but at home, she was downright casual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he couldn’t complain too much. The view wasn’t bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa,\" Shizune said, entering with a basin of water, a carp swimming inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The nostalgic setup instantly clicked—he’d seen this exact scene before. Fish were a staple training tool in medical ninjutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Sakura had practiced on fish during her early days under Tsunade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve read the Healing Technique scroll this morning,\" Shizune said. \"Now we begin hands-on training.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Healing Technique is the foundation of all Medical Ninjutsu. If you can’t grasp it, you likely don’t have the aptitude.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you can’t manage it within three months,\" Tsunade added from the couch, \"you might as well give up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That caught Kitazawa’s attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had planned to immediately impress them with overwhelming talent—but if he moved too fast, he’d stand out like a sore thumb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More importantly, he only knew two techniques: hemostatic and healing. Showing off now would make it harder to explain slower progress later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could pretend to be a genius—but not an unbelievable freak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his high chakra control, he could naturally learn new techniques at a decent pace. That way, even non-system skills wouldn’t expose him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How long did it take Lady Tsunade to learn the healing technique?\" he asked with feigned curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One day,\" Tsunade replied with a smirk. \"But I’m a special case.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you manage it in two days, you’re considered a genius with high talent,\" Shizune added. \"It took me two and a half.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected of Shizune-senpai,\" Kitazawa said with a respectful nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senpai?\" Shizune blinked. \"Aren’t you older than me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Skill comes first,\" he quipped. \"But if I ever surpass you, I’ll start calling you Kouhai.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re funny,\" Shizune chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But surpassing her? Keep dreaming,\" Tsunade chimed in. \"She’s trained under me for years—her medical ninjutsu rivals most Jonin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa’s eyes gleamed with a thought. \"Wanna bet on it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How could you gamble on something like this?\" Shizune protested, waving off the idea. \"Let’s focus. I’ll demonstrate the technique.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew Tsunade’s luck with gambling and didn’t want to tempt fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright,\" Tsunade sighed, though her eyes lit up with mischief. She liked the idea of a bet—she just didn’t think Kitazawa had a chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa was just starting out. He was decades behind Shizune. No one—no matter how gifted—closed that kind of gap overnight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless he was as talented as Tsunade herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Watch closely, Kitazawa.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shizune drew a kunai and made a precise cut along the carp’s side. Then she laid her hands over the wound, chakra flowing steadily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa watched, calm and focused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now I’ll explain the fundamentals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the demonstration ended, Shizune gave a detailed breakdown of the technique. Kitazawa listened intently, calculating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided he’d take exactly one day to master it. Matching Tsunade’s time was impressive but still within believable limits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would solidify his persona as a genius without crossing into absurdity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got it?\" Shizune asked. \"Let me know if you’re confused.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All clear. Thanks, Shizune-senpai,\" Kitazawa said and stepped forward. \"I’ll give it a try.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shizune watched curiously. Tsunade sat up, leaning forward to observe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few moments passed—and Kitazawa activated the Healing Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not perfectly, but enough to work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsunade’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He actually succeeded... on his first attempt?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shizune inhaled sharply. It had taken her half a day to even get it going.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa’s raw talent was undeniable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could he really surpass her one day?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No—no way!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, the seed of doubt was planted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seems you do have a knack for this,\" Tsunade said, leaning back with a sly grin. \"Keep practicing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood,\" Kitazawa replied calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Privately, he thanked the system. Without its maxed-out proficiency, pulling this off would’ve been impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three hours ticked by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shizune’s confidence began to waver. Not once had Kitazawa asked a question or needed her help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, her role as a teacher felt... shaky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She remembered how Tsunade had scolded her repeatedly before she grasped the healing technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s enough for today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai and Yakumo appeared at the top of the stairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ll continue here tomorrow,\" Tsunade said, standing up and stretching. \"See you then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shizune followed her out, tossing one last glance over her shoulder at Kitazawa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A genius, indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was already past nine o’clock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The streets were mostly empty, and only a handful of streetlights flickered faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, they lived right next door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady Tsunade.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they returned home, Shizune asked, \"What do you think of Kitazawa’s talent?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Better than yours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsunade answered bluntly, stretching out on the couch. \"If he had just graduated from the Ninja Academy, I would’ve taken him on as my personal student.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That good?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shizune blinked in surprise. More than the praise, it was that second sentence that stunned her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew how selective and demanding Tsunade was when it came to her students—especially now, when her emotional walls were firmly up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whether he’s truly gifted or not depends on what happens next,\" Tsunade said, arching her back in a lazy stretch. \"He’s a little old to start from scratch. Becoming a top-tier medical ninja at his age? That’s a tall order.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fair point.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shizune nodded, then asked with curiosity, \"But what if he keeps performing this well?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I’ll take him as a student.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsunade said it as if it were no big deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, a strange sense of unease stirred in Shizune’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t want her kouhai to become her senpai!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if she wasn’t a prodigy on the level of Tsunade, Shizune had always taken pride in being among the best in medical ninjutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Kitazawa and Kurenai escorted Yakumo home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How’s your medical ninjutsu training going?\" Kurenai asked as they strolled side by side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pretty well,\" Kitazawa replied with a smile. \"Lady Tsunade said I’m very talented.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seriously?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai looked at him, clearly skeptical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To show extraordinary talent in medical ninjutsu at twenty-one?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That didn’t add up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True prodigies showed signs from childhood—whether from elite clans or even civilian backgrounds. Minato Namikaze, Sakura Haruno... both had stood out at the Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s true.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa gave her a gentle smile and held her hand. \"You can ask Lady Tsunade if you don’t believe me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then that’s really... a shame.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai sighed, a little wistful. \"If you’d started learning right after graduation, you might’ve surpassed Shizune by now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she didn’t compare him to Tsunade. That would be pushing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not too late,\" Kitazawa said nonchalantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s true.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai grinned, an idea forming. \"Guess my future depends on you, then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stronger Kitazawa became, the more Konoha would take notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a decade, maybe he could even be vice principal of the Ninja Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that point, her life would be golden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For most ninja, missions were just a means to earn a living.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she could have comfort and stability, why refuse it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem,\" Kitazawa said, stopping in his tracks. \"Just enjoy life from now on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See you tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai looked at him, a flicker of emotion in her eyes. She rose on tiptoe and pressed her lips to his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long kiss, she turned and walked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day—Tuesday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the Ninja Academy training ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sasuke.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa walked over to Sasuke, who was finishing a round of the Great Dragon Fire Jutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did it go yesterday?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pretty smooth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke replied with a steady tone, hiding the subtle frustration in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve already agreed to train with Naruto after school from now on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, it had been anything but smooth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after experiencing Naruto’s brutal training regimen did Sasuke realize how intense it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d lasted half a day before vomiting from exhaustion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t sure he could even keep up today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had to try.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa smiled. \"Keep at it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Sasuke hadn’t said anything, Kitazawa could guess he was struggling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Physically, the Uchiha Clan was no match for the vitality of the Uzumaki or Senju bloodlines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go on and keep training.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa turned his attention to Sakura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After observing her for a while, his eyes lit up in admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She truly was a medical ninjutsu prodigy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d only begun learning the healing technique yesterday, yet she had already grasped most of the essentials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this pace, she’d master it by the afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One and a half to two days total—that was astonishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her talent surpassed Shizune’s, though it was still shy of Tsunade’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, it was remarkable. She truly lived up to her potential as one of the story’s main characters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the better for Kitazawa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The faster she progressed, the quicker he completed his missions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By dusk, the sun dipped below the horizon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Current Mission: Help Sakura Haruno learn her first Medical Ninjutsu.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Mission Reward: Chakra Scalpel.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Mission Complete.

I’d say you’ll have it fully mastered in a couple of days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sakura immediately pounced on the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My healing technique is way harder than your mind-body switch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei’s definitely going to teach me something more advanced next!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa looked at the two frenemies and chuckled to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This rivalry?
