"Uh… that's quite a lot!"
Looking at the books in his hands—each as thick as a brick—Shiro Akira's eyelid twitched slightly. When he looked up, he saw the teasing expression on Tsunade's face.
He quickly nodded. "It's fine, even if there's a lot. I'll finish reading and memorizing them as soon as possible!"
"Don't just memorize them blindly. Try to understand them. If there's anything you don't get, write it down and come ask me."
Tsunade nodded and gave another reminder.
The process of learning medical ninjutsu was dull and painful.
It required sufficient patience, meticulousness, and a good level of chakra control talent.
"Oh, right!"
At that moment, Tsunade suddenly realized she hadn't tested Shiro Akira's chakra control yet. She immediately looked at him and said, "I almost forgot. Didn't you say one of your reasons for learning medical ninjutsu is because you've hit a bottleneck in chakra control training? Come on—show me."
"If your chakra control isn't up to standard, then you can forget about learning medical ninjutsu for now."
Without sufficient chakra control, learning medical ninjutsu was basically impossible.
Even though it was considered a support type, it still required a certain level of talent.
Otherwise, one's achievements would be limited.
"Is that so?"
Shiro Akira immediately tucked the books into one arm, freeing his other hand and extending it forward.
In the next instant, he mobilized his chakra and condensed a fist-sized water sphere in his palm.
Then, under Tsunade's stunned gaze, he began to manipulate the water, continuously changing its form.
At times, it became a small bird; at others, a little fish. Finally, it transformed into a lifelike miniature water dragon, circling freely around his wrist.
"Crackle—"
Before Tsunade could even close her mouth, the water sphere dissipated. Lightning suddenly appeared in Shiro Akira's hand, effortlessly forming into a sphere of electricity.
Just like before, it began to change shape.
A lightning bird, a lightning dragon, even kunai and daggers formed entirely from electricity…
Tsunade could clearly sense that Shiro Akira's control over lightning shaping was even more effortless and powerful than his control over water.
It was simply unbelievable.
After finishing the demonstration, Shiro Akira dispersed the lightning in his hand and smiled as he looked at the stunned Tsunade.
"Big Sister Tsunade, is this enough?"
Only then did Tsunade snap back to her senses. She glared at him irritably. "You brat—if this isn't enough, then no one in the entire ninja world would qualify to learn medical ninjutsu!"
"I really didn't expect your chakra control to have reached this level!"
"In terms of shape transformation alone, even I'm inferior to you when it comes to Lightning and Water chakra. You really are a little monster—always full of surprises!"
"If you can achieve the same level of talent in nature transformation in the future, then your medical ninjutsu might very well surpass mine."
Not just medical ninjutsu—his offensive ninjutsu would likely become terrifying as well.
After all, these aspects were interconnected.
At this point, Tsunade's expression gradually became serious as she looked at Shiro Akira.
"Since you have this kind of talent, it must not be wasted. From now on, I'll personally teach you medical ninjutsu with full effort."
"I'll inform the academy, the Third Hokage, and even Sakumo. From now on, you should reduce your time spent on other training. If possible, don't even go to the academy—focus entirely on learning medical ninjutsu."
"Remember, I'll only teach you for six months."
After that, she would likely leave Konoha to travel and relax.
"Huh?"
Shiro Akira was momentarily stunned. "I should still continue my daily training in swordsmanship, taijutsu, and ninjutsu, right? It doesn't take that much time. And there's still knowledge at the academy I need to learn. I can't just cut off ties with my classmates either. How about I send a shadow clone to attend classes instead?"
There were still girls he liked there.
Besides, if he wanted to keep obtaining Obito's hair—or even his blood in the future—he needed to maintain good relationships at the academy.
Tsunade looked at him with a disdainful expression. "I think you just can't bear to part with that little girl named Kurenai, right?"
Brat. Did he think she didn't know what he was up to?
"Uh…"
Shiro Akira looked a bit embarrassed but quickly tried to justify himself. "That's only part of the reason. I genuinely think completing my academy education is important. There's also a lot of valuable knowledge in the library."
Being uneducated wasn't a good thing.
So many people in the ninja world became extreme or easily manipulated simply because they lacked knowledge.
Obito in the future timeline was a perfect example.
"Yeah, yeah—keep talking."
Tsunade crossed her arms and looked at Shiro Akira with an amused expression, watching until his face turned slightly red. Only then did she wave her hand. "Fine. Your reasoning passes. Just send a shadow clone to attend classes."
"As for taijutsu, ninjutsu, and swordsmanship training—move all of that to the afternoon. For the next six months, you'll come to the hospital every morning to study medical ninjutsu and related knowledge under me. Understood?"
"Yes!"
Shiro Akira nodded immediately.
He couldn't ask for a better opportunity.
How many people would beg for a chance like this?
Only because he was a descendant of the Senju clan and had outstanding talent did he receive such treatment.
"Alright, now get lost! Come back in seven days at 7:30 in the morning sharp."
"This next week is for you to finish reading those books. If you don't pass, you know the consequences. Heh heh!"
Tsunade waved him off impatiently, gave a warning, then returned to her seat and resumed drinking.
"Got it! I'll head out first!"
Shiro Akira nodded helplessly, then carried the books out of the room and headed back down to the first floor.
"Ah!"
Before he could leave the hospital, the nurse from earlier spotted him and hurried over. She reached out to rub Shiro Akira's head and said with a smile, "Looks like you gained quite a lot! Are you going to learn medical ninjutsu?"
