After completing the genin exam, Reiki wasted no time and headed straight for Tsunade.
"Teacher, do you want to leave the village?" he asked, a hint of concern in his voice. Given Tsunade's stature, it was unusual for her to take on the role of a guiding jounin, especially after everything that had transpired with Kato Dan.
"Ah," Tsunade replied, sensing his unease. "Let's go. I'll take you for the medical ninja assessment first. After that, I'll introduce you to your teammates."
With that, she led Reiki directly to the hospital, where the assessments were conducted. To become a medical ninja, candidates had to master both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, including hands-on procedures.
---
In the hospital, a group of senior medical ninjas stood waiting, looking somewhat dazed by Reiki's presence.
"Seniors, do I pass this?" Reiki asked, gesturing towards a few small animals resting on hospital beds, all treated and cared for.
"Absolutely," one of the medical ninjas said, his face lighting up with excitement. "Reiki, from today on, you are officially a medical ninja! With your talent, you might one day compete with Tsunade-sama herself!"
The praise made Reiki blush, though he quickly replied, "Thank you, but I still have a long way to go compared to my teacher. I will work hard!"
With the assessment complete, Tsunade took Reiki to the training ground. From a distance, he could see two figures waiting for him.
"Ding! An injury has been detected. Please complete treatment as soon as possible," the system chimed in his mind as he approached.
To his surprise, one of the figures was Uchiha Shisui, a familiar face. Reiki had heard tales of the Uchiha's legendary prowess, and he was excited to meet someone of his caliber.
"Hello, Reiki," Shisui greeted with a bright smile, extending his hand. "I'm Uchiha Shisui, and I'll be your partner from now on."
"Nice to meet you, Shisui! Can I just call you that? It feels more friendly," Reiki replied, shaking his hand firmly.
He felt a rush of enthusiasm; Shisui was a prodigy, a genuine genius both within the Uchiha clan and across the ninja world.
"Hello! My name is Namikaze Nozuki," said the other girl, her voice soft and shy. "It's been a year since I became a genin, but I still haven't found a suitable jounin to guide me."
The name caught Reiki's attention. "Namikaze? As in Namikaze Minato?"
Tsunade nodded, explaining, "Yes, she is Minato's sister. Like you, she graduated early, but she hasn't had the chance to train under a jounin yet, and she hasn't joined the ANBU either, so I've asked her to team up with you."
"Okay! I brought you to the training ground to help you get familiar with each other first," Tsunade said, her tone shifting to a more commanding one. "Now, get ready to fight. You will be up against me."
With a quick flash of movement, Tsunade used her teleportation technique, placing herself a good distance away from the three young ninjas.
Reiki, Shisui, and Nozuki stood ready, their ages ranging from six to seven. Among them, there were two prodigies and one who had yet to fully realize his potential.
Tsunade had an excellent eye for talent; in a few years, they would surely shine in the ninja world, especially when the Third Shinobi War broke out.
"Shisui, how far can your eyes see right now?" Reiki asked, eager to learn about his partner's abilities.
As a natural extrovert, Reiki took charge of the conversation. Understanding their strengths was crucial for their upcoming battle.
"Double magatama," Shisui replied, his tone serious. "I can use genjutsu to hold Tsunade in place, while my ninjutsu can constrict her movements. You and Nozuki can follow your own fighting styles."
Reiki was impressed. A six-year-old with a double magatama Sharingan was no small feat. The Uchiha's clan's unique ocular powers often came at a mental cost, a burden many bore heavily.
"It seems the system's injury notification was referring to you, Shisui," Reiki thought, suddenly more aware of his partner's struggles.
"Reiki-san, I remember you're a medical ninja, right?" Nozuki asked, her eyes wide with curiosity. "If something happens during the fight, can you help us?"
"You can count on me! As long as you're breathing, I can help you recover quickly," Reiki assured them confidently. "Let's practice the strategy Shisui outlined. We may not succeed at first, but it's all about getting used to each other's fighting styles."
Reiki aimed for a month of training together, hoping to gain experience and build teamwork before heading out on missions. Staying in the village a bit longer felt safer, especially in a world where danger lurked at every turn.
"Alright!" the two agreed, and they took their positions, readying themselves for the challenge ahead.
Shisui activated his double magatama Sharingan and assumed the lead. He swiftly formed hand seals, preparing for their first coordinated attack.
"Fire Release: Phoenix Fire Jutsu!"
A stream of fire erupted towards Tsunade, who stood unfazed. At the same time, Nozuki formed seals and unleashed her shadow clones, creating a flurry of movements as over ten clones rushed towards the legendary Sannin.
Reiki observed their strategies, noting their teamwork. However, he knew they had a significant challenge ahead of them in facing Tsunade, who was leagues above them in strength.
With determination, he prepared himself for the battle, ready to support his teammates as they learned to work together against one of the most formidable ninjas in the Hidden Leaf Village.
