Chapter 8: Pharmacist Nonou Who Likes Children

"Kiyoshi, you're alright."

Yakushi Nonou reached a conclusion, and the pale green chakra that had appeared in her hand faded away.

Upon hearing this, Qing Si said:

"But I heard that everyone awakens the Sharingan in both eyes at the same time."

"There will always be special circumstances."

"I see."

Kiyoshi lowered his head.

He already knew the answer.

This situation happened to Sasuke in the original work.

During his battle with Haku, Sasuke evolved one of his Sharingan eyes into a two-tomoe Sharingan, while the other eye remained a one-tomoe Sharingan, resulting in a single and double eyelid.

There are just very few examples.

Pharmacist Nono carefully sealed the examination instruments into a sealed scroll, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Kiyoshi's thin figure, those dark eyes looking at her.

Kiyoshi was unfamiliar with her current appearance, but more familiar with another side of her.

She was wearing a white hood and a black nun's habit.

A few casual movements can outline a perfectly rounded silhouette.

She is a very mature image of a saint.

Meanwhile, Kiyoshi is also compiling some other information about Yakushi Nonou.

The medical team leader, a top-notch spy from the Root intelligence department.

Her espionage skills were so impressive that even after her retirement, Danzo Shimura personally approached her, pressuring her to continue working for Root.

Therefore, Kiyoshi never intended to engage in a debate with Yakushi Nonou.

She answered whatever she asked.

As for whether Qing Si was a spy.

That was a one-sided effort by the Hidden Cloud Village to win over Yotsuki Seiji; Uchiha Seiji hadn't even given a response yet.

They never engaged in any espionage activities.

Will it happen in the future?

That's a matter for later.

"By the way, Lady Nonou, is the green chakra that just appeared in your hand the same as the one Lady Tsunade uses?"

Kiyoshi suddenly looked up, his voice tinged with curiosity.

"That's right, this is medical chakra. The chakra of Konoha's medical ninjas turns light green."

Yakushi Nonou nodded, a strand of golden hair falling down as she spoke.

When medical ninjas use medical ninjutsu, their chakra usually turns pale green, with the Palm Healing Technique being the most typical example.

Seeing that Kiyoshi was staring intently at the sealed scroll containing his instruments, Yakushi Nonou asked:

"Are you interested in these?"

She knew that Tsunade had examined Kiyoshi's Sharingan.

It is speculated that Tsunade used medical ninjutsu to conduct the test, leaving an impression on Kiyoshi.

Kiyoshi's gaze fell on the sealed scroll she had just put away, and he asked thoughtfully:

"These medical ninjutsu...can I learn them?"

Yakushi Nonou was slightly surprised and paused for a moment in the face of this sudden request.

She looked Kiyoshi up and down. Although the boy in front of her was very thin, she could tell that Kiyoshi had a large frame. If he trained, he could become a good taijutsu ninja.

"Kiyoshi, you're better suited to learning physical combat."

"A taijutsu ninja?"

Mikoto glanced at Kiyoshi, having heard that Kiyoshi possessed some characteristics of the Night Moon Clan.

Mikoto doesn't know where this feature is.

I guess it's talent or something that sets them apart from ordinary people; they have unexpected abilities.

"But... there might be other clansmen in the same situation as me. When that happens, I can help diagnose my clansmen, just like Lady Nonou and Lady Tsunade."

Kiyoshi didn't hide the disappointment in his eyes. He scratched his head softly, as if trying to conceal his inner despair: "So it still doesn't work..."

For a moment, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly.

It would be a lie to say he wasn't disappointed. If Nonou didn't accept him either, Kiyoshi would have to make other plans.

【The Art of Speaking (White)】made Kiyoshi's tone more sincere.

Yakushi Nonou was slightly taken aback.

She has always loved children, especially those who have lost their support.

"Don't rush."

She spoke softly, trying to comfort the somewhat pitiful-looking child in front of her.

"After you graduate from the Ninja Academy, if you pass the test for medical ninja reserves, come find me."

Yakushi Nonou spoke a few more words than usual.

If an adult comes to her, she will simply tell them to take the test themselves and follow the normal procedures, without getting involved with her in any way.

However, from the information obtained from the root, Yakushi Nonou learned that Seiji had been an orphan since he was two years old.

Over the years, she had been thinking about opening an orphanage after retiring from her job.

Kiyoshi's appearance intensified this longing.

"Really?"

Kiyoshi's eyes lit up, and a surprised smile appeared on his face.

The faint melancholy seemed to have dissipated somewhat.

Yakushi Nonou nodded, a gentle smile playing on her lips:

Why would I lie to you?

Mikoto, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but glance at Kiyoshi again.

This child is somewhat different from the other Uchiha clan members.

Tsunade, who came to inspect last time, was cold to him and had no intention of taking him on as a disciple, but Yakushi Nonou seemed to be considering taking him on as a disciple.

Furthermore, according to Yakushi Nonou, she also possesses talent in physical combat.

The Uchiha clan today has neither medical ninjas nor taijutsu ninjas.

After graduating from the Ninja Academy, Uchiha ninjas all joined the Konoha Police Department to manage village security and carry out missions.

She herself was the same.

"Alright, Kiyoshi, I have other things to do, so let's call it a day."

Yakushi Nonou stood up and casually tidied up the sealing scroll.

Before leaving, her gaze swept over the books placed on the chair.

He is a studious child.

Yakushi Nono's internal evaluation.

"Yes, thank you, Nono-sama."

Kiyoshi politely stood up, intending to see Yakushi Nonou off.

Together with Mikoto, he escorted Yakushi Nonou to the border between the Uchiha settlement and the Konoha city.

There is an old-fashioned door frame there, marking the Uchiha territory.

"Go back and cultivate yourself properly."

Mikoto left a message and hurriedly departed.

Kiyoshi walked home alone.

The moon and stars were few on the road; it was already night.

Kiyoshi let out a soft breath.

This matter went much more smoothly than he had imagined.

Come to think of it, Yakushi Nonou even teaches medical ninjutsu to orphans who aren't from Konoha, let alone him.

Moreover, Yakushi Nonou has also considered retiring, which probably means she has fewer concerns now.

She has no weaknesses now.

Only when he becomes the director of the orphanage in the future will he be forced to become a spy again and infiltrate the enemy country because these orphans are being held hostage by Danzo.

"Next, I need to improve my chakra control as soon as possible and reach the standard."

…………

The next day, at the ninja school playground.

"Today's lesson is a quiz; we need to run fifty laps!"

The instructor, Umino Lu, blew his whistle, signaling the students to start running.

"Ugh, running again."

"How much? Fifty?"
