Chapter 291: Teaching at the Hidden Leaf, the System Says I Am Tsunade

In short, the advantage was hers!

"I hope Lady Tsunade will go easy on us then."

Kitazawa held back his laughter and said.

"Itachi just said I was the greatest beauty in Konoha; aren't Itachi afraid Kurenai will get angry?"

Tsunade suddenly thought of something and asked with a smile, enjoying the drama.

"Lady Tsunade, are Itachi going to betray me just like that?"

Kitazawa's expression stiffened at these words, and he asked.

"Who told Itachi to plot against me?"

Tsunade laughed immediately upon seeing his frustrated expression.

As she laughed, leaning back and forth, her clothes were squeezed out of shape, looking quite shocking.

"Is it that funny?"

Kitazawa couldn't quite hold it together.

"It's nothing."

Tsunade stopped laughing and said, "I just thought of something happy."

For some reason, winning a round back from Kitazawa made her very happy.

Bang!

Just like before, Tsunade kicked open the door to the Hokage's office.

"Kitazawa is here too?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked calmly, "Is there a new ninjutsu again?"

Tsunade threw the ninjutsu scroll to him without a word.

"A genjutsu with great potential."

After reading it, Hiruzen Sarutobi commented, "It can be used to treat patients, and it can also be used to deal with enemies."

As the Hokage, he thought further ahead.

The effect of Mirror Flower, Water Moon was to create a genjutsu world.

And this genjutsu world was not fixed; it could change according to the caster's thoughts.

In the hands of different people, it could exert completely different effects.

"Then pay me more."

Tsunade reached out her hand and said with a smile.

"Same as last time, 1. million ryo."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and said.

This student of his was truly obsessed with money; if she knew how to save, that would be one thing, but she was also addicted to gambling.

"Don't be so stingy."

Tsunade looked at him and said, "Add another 500, 00 ryo."

"Adding is fine."

Hiruzen Sarutobi shifted the tone and said, "But I have one condition."

"What condition?"

Tsunade asked, alert.

"Itachi have done a good job building the psychological medical ninja system."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said unhurriedly, "But having the ninjutsu isn't enough; Itachi also need practice."

"That's simple."

Tsunade heard the subtext and said, "I'll go find two ninja suffering from psychological illnesses."

"It's not appropriate to find patients for the first practice."

Hiruzen Sarutobi stated his true purpose, "Why don't Itachi practice it yourself?"

"Old man!"

Tsunade's expression suddenly darkened, and her eyes became sharp.

A terrifying aura instantly filled the entire Hokage's office.

Kitazawa felt a slight difficulty in breathing.

No wonder Orochimaru could make Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha unable to move just by relying on his aura, or rather, his killing intent, in the original work.

"Cough, cough, I was just suggesting."

Seeing her get angry, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly conceded, "If Itachi don't want to, we can change it."

"I'm going back first, Kitazawa."

Tsunade only felt agitated; she said goodbye and turned to leave.

"So that's how it is."

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't feel surprised at all.

Hemophobia wasn't the problem, but hemophobia would trigger Tsunade's past memories; it was normal for her to be so resistant.

After Hiruzen Sarutobi finished speaking, his gaze fell on Kitazawa.

"I will keep it a secret!"

Kitazawa said immediately.

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't explicitly say hemophobia, he had implied that Tsunade suffered from a psychological illness.

If such a thing were to spread, it would inevitably cause a huge uproar.

"I heard Itachi've been following Tsunade to learn medical ninjutsu recently?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was silent for two seconds before asking.

As the Hokage, he naturally knew about Shizune and Kitazawa performing surgeries at the Konoha Hospital long ago.

The reason he hadn't asked was that he was waiting for Tsunade to tell him the reason.

After all, Tsunade's attitude was what truly determined Kitazawa's status in the Hidden Leaf Village.

If Kitazawa was taken in as a student by Tsunade, then he would naturally be part of the Hokage's lineage.

But if she was just teaching him casually, there was no need to pay much attention.

"Yes."

Kitazawa admitted.

"How is the learning going?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked curiously.

"I'm learning the Chakra Scalpel."

Kitazawa paused and listed the medical ninjutsu he had already learned.

"Itachi've become Tsunade's student?"

A look of surprise appeared on Hiruzen Sarutobi's face, and he couldn't help but ask.

It wasn't his fault for misunderstanding; besides the Yin Seal and some A-rank medical ninjutsu, Tsunade had already taught Kitazawa everything she could.

This was something that only happened between a teacher and a student.

"Not yet."

Kitazawa shook his head and said, "Lady Tsunade said she wants to see my performance."

"Is that so?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was thoughtful and said, "In my opinion, your talent has already surpassed most medical ninja."

If it were normal times, he would definitely say a few more words, but today he had more important matters.

"Thank Itachi for the compliment, Lord Hokage."

Kitazawa said modestly.

"I have a mission to entrust to Itachi."

Hiruzen Sarutobi made up his mind and said.

"...?"

Kitazawa had a bad premonition.

"Although Tsunade hasn't taken Itachi as a student yet, I can tell she thinks well of Itachi."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said slowly, "Your mission is to find a way to get her to accept psychological treatment."

Kitazawa felt the world go black before his eyes.

What kind of hell-level mission is this?

Am I qualified to do this mission?

Although his relationship with Tsunade was indeed okay, it was limited to just okay.

Hemophobia involved the deepest and heaviest things in Tsunade's heart.

Could he pry it open?

【Principal Hiruzen Sarutobi has initiated a request to Itachi.】

【Current Mission: Cure Tsunade's hemophobia.】

【Mission Reward: Yamato-version Wood Release.】

【Do Itachi accept?】

Kitazawa glanced at it subconsciously and was immediately stunned.

The mission reward is actually Wood Release?

Although it was the Yamato version, without Hashirama Senju's world-destroying power, it was still Wood Release.

In the ninja world, the power of Kekkei Genkai is generally greater than ordinary five-element ninjutsu.

And Wood Release belongs to the Kekkei Genkai.

Even the Yamato version of Wood Release had quite impressive power.

In the original work, setting Hashirama Senju aside, Yamato could definitely be counted as an elite jonin.

And his strength came from Wood Release.

More importantly, Wood Release had a very strong symbolic meaning in the Hidden Leaf Village.

If Kitazawa had Wood Release, even if his origins were unknown, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Tsunade would reuse him.

One could know this by referring to Yamato.

He was adopted by Danzo Shimura from a young age, and after growing up, he was even sent to assassinate Hiruzen Sarutobi.

But Hiruzen Sarutobi not only didn't kill him, but also made him join the Anbu.

And in order to get Yamato out of the Root, Hiruzen Sarutobi personally led the Anbu to surround the Root.

The importance of a Wood Release ninja is evident.

"Lord Hokage, I will try my best."

Kitazawa took a deep breath and said.

"Itachi must not spread what I say next."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a serious face.

"I understand."
