Reiki was especially excited as his healing hands had reached 50% mastery. Testing his skill, he placed his hands, glowing faintly red and blue, over Shizune's head, gently drawing out a trace of her soul to observe her thoughts.
He was surprised to see her memories filled with admiration:
- *[Senior Brother Reiki is amazing; he treats injuries so effortlessly]*
- *[I'm so grateful to learn from him]*
- *[Reiki is so handsome; he's my favorite]*
Feeling a bit embarrassed, Reiki released Shizune's soul, letting it return to her peacefully. "Guess she has a one-track mind," he thought, shaking his head with a smile.
Suddenly, there was a knock outside. Sensing the familiar presence, Reiki quickly went to greet his visitor.
"Teacher?" Reiki said, opening the door to find Tsunade standing there with a battered ninja lying unconscious on the ground.
"Did I wake you, Reiki?" Tsunade asked, smiling. "This guy has been tailing me, so I took the liberty of 'introducing' myself." She gestured to the ninja on the ground.
Reiki examined the beaten figure, still holding onto life but covered with a chakra-sealing tag. "I'll heal him a bit," Reiki said, placing his hands over the unconscious figure and channeling a subtle healing light, his red and blue hands glowing faintly. Soon, the ninja regained consciousness, only to spot Tsunade and Reiki looming over him. Realizing the situation, he bit down on a poison capsule, ending his life instantly.
"He's no ordinary ninja," Tsunade observed, frowning. "Looks like a disposable agent… This isn't good."
"Teacher, I might be able to get more out of him," Reiki said, his hands glowing blue. "Recently, my bloodline limit developed a new ability—soul interrogation."
Tsunade looked surprised. "Soul interrogation? You're saying your bloodline ability awakened again?"
Reiki nodded, raising his hand to grasp a spectral blue light from the deceased ninja's body. Delving into the soul, he sorted through fragmented memories, quickly piecing together a troubling discovery. "Teacher…" Reiki hesitated, unsure how to begin. "You might want to see this yourself."
With Tsunade's permission, he placed his fingers on her forehead, channeling the images directly into her mind. Almost instantly, she understood. "Root…"
Tsunade's face hardened. The ninja had been sent by Root, Danzo's secretive faction. They were monitoring her, intending to kidnap Reiki at the first opportunity. Danzo had taken note of Reiki's potential, his remarkable healing skills, and his progress in training, seeing him as an ideal asset for Root.
"This old man… Is he out of his mind?" Tsunade muttered furiously. "Reiki, can you share this memory with others as evidence?"
"Yes, teacher," Reiki replied. "Are we going to Danzo directly?"
"No, we're going straight to the Third Hokage," she said firmly, leading Reiki out of the compound toward Hiruzen Sarutobi's office.

Tsunade's patience was wearing thin. She had warned Danzo about meddling in her business, but now he'd crossed a line. She marched toward the Hokage's office, intent on ending this once and for all.
