Chapter 22: Chapter 22

Yoichi turned around and saw Tsunade and he wrote. "Oh, it's Lady Tsunade. Do you need something from me?"

"Tsk, what's wrong with your throat? Do you want me to help you with that?"

Tsunade glanced at the note and clicked her tongue before saying, "Hmm, I see. By the way, Yoichi, I noticed you have quite a few bandages on you. Looks like you have some burns. With enough money, you could recover in just a couple of minutes."

"No need, I'll be fine in a few days. But Lady Tsunade, you've caused me quite a bit of trouble."

"How so? How did I cause you trouble?"

Tsunade immediately crossed her arms, looking displeased. "Are you saying these things because you hold a grudge against me for what happened last time?"

"I only told you about my Lightning Style Chakra Mode ninjutsu, but recently rumors about me abandoning my teammates have been spreading again. It's all because Root wants to obtain my Lightning Style Chakra Mode, so they've been fueling the rumors."

"Also, these injuries of mine were caused by Root shinobi. They came to threaten me, demanding that I hand over my ninjutsu and join Root in order to clear my name of these rumors. Thank you, Lady Tsunade, for your betrayal."

After handing the note to Tsunade, Yoichi turned and left, followed by two members of the security team.

"Related to me?"

Tsunade read what was written on the note and immediately remembered mentioning this matter to the old man. However, she had intended for the old man to investigate, not to act as a spy.

How did this get linked to asking for ninjutsu?

Tsunade had no idea about the spreading rumors. Just the day before, she had lost all her money in a gamble, and today she came to the Konoha Hospital hoping to find a few unsuspecting fools to treat their injuries and earn some medical fees.

She rarely strolled around the streets, so how could she know about rumors spreading? Besides, casinos don't gossip about ninja affairs.

"Danzo is behind this."

Tsunade furrowed her brow, thinking about her impression of Danzo. It seemed like something Danzo would do, but she only told the old man about it, and it was for intelligence confirmation.

"No, why should I take the blame? It's clearly Danzo's doing!"

Tsunade felt annoyed. She left the Konoha Hospital directly and headed towards the Hokage's office. Although she disliked Yoichi, that wicked little brat, why should she take the blame for Danzo?

She didn't even care about the Lightning Style Chakra Mode. Not only was that ninjutsu difficult to master, but it also drew the hatred of the Cloud shinobi.

On the other side,

Masato asked politely, "Yoichi-kun, how are your injuries?"

Yoichi replied, "Nothing serious, I'll go to the Konoha Hospital tomorrow for treatment, and I'll be fine."

"My father learned that Yoichi-kun has awakened the Sharingan to the second tomoe, so he specially asked me to bring you some genjutsu. If you have any questions, you can come to my house anytime."

Masato took out four scrolls and placed them on the table. These were all genjutsu that could be used with the Sharingan. Learning them would be very convenient when facing enemies.

There was a difference between doujutsu genjutsu and ordinary genjutsu. Doujutsu genjutsu was basically impossible to dispel by oneself, so Uchiha had gained a reputation in the ninja world: "One on one, they will escape; two on one, attack from behind."

Encountering an Uchiha with an activated Sharingan, if alone, it was better to run away.

Unless you didn't look into the opponent's eyes, but then you would hardly be able to see the opponent's upper body. How would you fight like that?

"Masato-senpai, please said my thanks to Elder Kenji. I'm grateful for his help."

Yoichi accepted the goodwill of the Elder without hesitation. If Fugaku could also win over clan members like this, there would be no need for factions in the clan, just the clan leader's side.

"Yoichi-kun, rest well. I'll take my leave now. If you need anything, feel free to come to my house or the security team."

Masato nodded and left Yoichi's house.

After everyone left, Yoichi opened the four genjutsu scrolls and started studying them.

One was an insight into the use of the Sharingan, the "Illusion: Genjutsu Binding," "Illusion: Unknowing Fire," and another one without a name, but it required three seals to activate, and there was also a time limit.

This genjutsu was also marked by Kenji himself as not allowed to be used unless it was a matter of life and death!

"Is this Izanagi? Why did the Elder give me this forbidden jutsu?"

Seeing this unnamed genjutsu, Yoichi immediately thought of the forbidden jutsu of the Uchiha clan. The effect and seals were exactly the same as he remembered.

"Is he afraid that I might encounter an accident, so he gave me this forbidden jutsu to save my life? Tsk, Fugaku, can't you learn from this kind of care!"

This forbidden jutsu was said to be untrained by anyone, but it was impossible to think so. Sacrificing one Sharingan in exchange for one's life? The Uchiha clan was not foolish. Important figures in the clan would definitely preserve this forbidden jutsu.

Yoichi put away the four scrolls and prepared to find time to study them slowly.

However, it felt good to have someone backing him up. Regardless of Kenji's intentions or expectations for him, this protection and cultivation were much better than Fugaku's.

On the other side,

Fugaku was once again summoned to the Hokage's office, this time accompanied not only by Hiruzen but also by the other three council elders.

Upon arrival, Fugaku learned that Yoichi had caused trouble again, this time with Root shinobi.

According to Danzo, the Root shinobi wanted to invite Yoichi to investigate the rumor, but Yoichi directly attacked them and injured Danzo's subordinates.

This was already Yoichi's second time attacking fellow village shinobi, which was absolutely unacceptable according to the Will of Fire.

Although Hiruzen's expression was somewhat unpleasant, he still said, "Fugaku, I understand that you are busy with clan matters and also overseeing the security team.

When you're busy, you indeed may not have time to deal with such trivial matters. But I hope you can advise Yoichi. Shinobi from the same village are like family; this kind of behavior is not appropriate."

Danzo immediately expressed his dissatisfaction. "Hiruzen, how can you brush this off? This is an attack on fellow village shinobi."

"Danzo, leave this matter to Fugaku to handle. He is the captain of the security team, so you don't need to worry about it."

"Hiruzen."

Hiruzen put down his pipe and interrupted, "Alright, this matter is settled. Danzo, I am the Hokage!"

"Then why did you call me here? Just to scold me as the assistant Hokage?!"

Danzo's face turned cold, and he tapped his crutch fiercely. "Hiruzen, you will regret this."

After speaking, Danzo left with a cold expression.

Homura and Koharu didn't say much either. They simply said, "Hiruzen, handle this matter yourself," and then left the Hokage's office.

"Fugaku, you may go back first."

"I understand, Hokage-sama. Please rest assured."

Fugaku bowed slightly and assured him before leaving the Hokage Tower.

"Elder Kenji, did you summon me for something?"

Fugaku ignored the tea brought by Rie, his expression slightly solemn.

Despite having retired from the ANBU, he as a elder still held considerable influence within the clan. If it weren't for the incompetence of the Head Elder, who handed over the clan's authority to Uchiha Fugaku, this young clan leader, would likely have been a mere puppet.

Setting down his teacup, Kenji asked with a faint smile, "Fugaku, you just came from the Hokage Tower. Are you planning to find Yoichi?"

Upon hearing this, Fugaku fell silent for a moment before speaking, "Yes. Does the Elder also know about this?"

"After Yoichi attacked the Root ninja, he came to my house and explained the situation. All of this commotion was caused by the Root."

Kenji didn't hide or deceive Fugaku. After all, he was the clan leader, and petty deception would serve no purpose.

"So, I sent the Guard Force to apprehend the thirteen people who spread the rumors the most. Three of them acted out of previous grudges against us, five of them accepted money, and five others showed traces of genjutsu."

"Out of concern for the younger generation, I had a righteous person use the Sharingan genjutsu on Yoichi's former teammate, and the conclusion was based on envy."

"He resents that he couldn't become a shinobi himself, while Yoichi completed the mission unharmed and could potentially become a hero of Konoha. That's why he slandered Yoichi."

Kenji calmly recounted what he had discovered and placed a scroll on the table.

"Fugaku, Yoichi is having a stroke of bad luck. However, he knows to come to me when trouble arises, like a child causing trouble outside would seek their parents' help. This is the Lightning Release Chakra Mode Technique scroll he gave me. You may take it, clan leader."

Fugaku had not spoken since earlier and showed no reaction even when he saw the scroll on the table.

If he took the scroll containing the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, he, as the clan leader, would have to live up to the expectations of his people.

Taking the jutsu scroll meant endorsing Yoichi, dispelling the rumors spread in the village, and questioning Danzo.

Fugaku clenched his fists tightly. He was cornered by the Elder, and now he only had two choices. However, choosing to take the jutsu scroll would come at a great cost.

All his previous efforts would be in vain!

"Elder, let's end this matter here."

"Fugaku-"

"There are still matters to attend to at home, Elder. I'll take care of Yoichi's situation. As for those from the Root... leave them to me."

With a slightly bowed head, Fugaku spoke decisively, then rose and walked out.

He didn't drink the tea on the table, nor did he take the jutsu scroll with him.

After a while, when everyone had left, Kenji shook his head with a sigh, "Indecisive. I shouldn't have listened to this guy in the first place. If Yoichi had been born a few years earlier, I wouldn't have had to choose him."

Fugaku's actions only strengthened Kenji's determination to nurture Yoichi.

His son, Masato, lacked the talent to be the clan leader. Being a squad leader and obediently following orders was sufficient for him.

The bottom line for a clan leader was not to unconditionally cater to others, but Fugaku was completely unaware of this issue.

——————————————

"Tsunade-sama, it's unnecessary for you to personally attend to such minor injuries."

"Stop blabbering. Consider it my way of unintentionally compensating you. Come over here quickly!"

With a command and a posture of crossed arms, Tsunade hummed, giving off an air of "if you don't come, I'll come to you and beat you."

"Last time, you accused me of snitching, but when it comes to foreign villages techniques, I have to report it. But I didn't expect Root to go this far."

A woman in her thirties being tsundere? It was somewhat embarrassing, but this kind of behavior made the mature woman somewhat adorable, especially considering her youthful appearance.

Yoichi shifted his gaze away from Tsunade's face, then walked to the chair in front of her and sat down, replying, "Since that's the case, then help me heal once, and we'll call it even. Thank you, Tsunade-sama."

"This minor injury is no trouble at all. If I treat you, you'll be fully recovered in one go."

As Tsunade spoke, she formed hand seals and used her Medical Ninjutsu, then placed her hands on Yoichi's body.

Medical Ninjutsu stimulated cell division using Yang Release chakra to accelerate wound healing. With Tsunade's mastery over chakra, the efficiency of healing injuries was ten times that of other medical ninjas.

Even if using slugs to treat others, the effect was stronger than that of ordinary medical ninjas.

Tsunade had now earned the title of the world's number one medical ninja. Countless people would want to have her treat them, but Tsunade was usually too lazy to bother, only becoming busy when she was short on money.

Before long, Yoichi's injuries had healed almost completely. After expressing his gratitude, he left the Konoha Hospital.

"Feeling better?"

Outside the Konoha Hospital, Kakashi suddenly appeared in front of Yoichi, greeting him expressionlessly.

"Don't appear out of nowhere next time. Also, do you have something to discuss?"

Yoichi replied, thinking that Kakashi wouldn't come looking for him after completing his mission, especially since he had clashed with Root ninjas.

"I actually went to your clan compound first before coming to the hospital."

Kakashi glanced at Yoichi, then continued, "Since you seem to have no urgent matters for the village missions, when do you plan to pick up the next mission?"

After returning home that day, Kakashi did inquire with Sakumo, but Sakumo only provided him with some information. The rest was up to Kakashi to judge and decide.

After much contemplation, Kakashi decided to continue teaming up with Yoichi.

He trusted his instincts; Yoichi wasn't the person rumors made him out to be. That's why he visited the Uchiha compound today before coming to the hospital.

"If you're not in a hurry, how about in five days? I've acquired some new techniques recently and need to familiarize myself with them. This way, the chances of mission success will be higher."

"Alright then. Will you be training these few days?"

"If you have any plans, meet at the usual place!"

"Understood."

After saying this, Kakashi turned and left. His father wouldn't be in the village for long, as he would soon be sent on a mission. Training alone was too slow for him, and only Yoichi in the entire Konoha was suitable as a training target.

Despite graduating a year ago, Kakashi knew few people. Apart from his father, he usually trained alone.

Now having someone stronger than him to spar and train with was a rare opportunity for Kakashi.
