Chapter 6: Plans, Imagination, Without a Trace
Chapter 6: Plans, Imagination, Without a Trace
"Huh, there's an unexpected surprise?"
Xingyuan Qianshuo hadn't expected the system to release a side quest, and immediately, on a whim, chose to accept it.
Although the system does not specify the exact reward for curing a special condition, it will definitely be much more generous than the reward for curing a common condition.
However, Tsunade's hemophobia is not easy to cure. In the original story, she spent more than 20 years trying to cure it herself.
It wasn't until Naruto used his unique "talk-no-jutsu" and experienced a near-death experience that he truly moved her and made her completely healed.
Even healers cannot heal themselves, and this is especially true for mental illnesses. It is understandable that he has been trapped in it for more than 20 years, but Xingyuan Qianshuo cannot wait for 20 years.
His mind raced, and prototypes of various treatment plans flashed through his mind.
The worst option would be for Tsunade to follow the original storyline, leave Konoha, and wander around casinos in various places, becoming the legendary "big fat sheep," and spend twenty years healing her wounds.
The middle strategy is to let her devote herself to her work, fill the time for reminiscing with busyness, cover up the pain with positive emotions, and dilute the deep helplessness and guilt by strengthening herself.
The best course of action is to find Tsunade a new lover.
This person needs to be more handsome, stronger, and have bigger dreams than Kato Dan, so as to completely cover the beauty and pain of her first love and help her break free from the past.
Just as she gave Naruto the First Hokage's necklace, giving her new hope and spiritual support, allowing her to be reborn, might be a viable path.
Jiraiya was definitely out of the question. He pursued it his whole life but never succeeded. Even after his sacrifice, all he got in return was a few tears from Tsunade.
"Hey kid, have you seen enough?" Tsunade's angry shout interrupted Hoshino Chisaku's thoughts.
He suddenly woke up and realized that while he was thinking, his gaze had unconsciously shifted slightly downwards, focusing on those two full and extremely imposing "fierce things".
Xingyuan Qianshuo tactically picked up his juice, took a sip, and responded without changing his expression:
"Lady Tsunade, I'm currently considering preparations for the medical specialty student program. Should I report to you now?"
"Go away, go away, it's break time now. We can talk about work during work hours." Tsunade's attention was indeed diverted, and she waved her hand impatiently.
……
Tsunade didn't drink much; a bottle of sake wasn't enough to make her drunk. The two parted ways at the entrance to the izakaya (Japanese pub).
The Senju clan's territory is located below the Hokage Rock. Hoshino Senju's home is on the east side of Konoha Village, near the edge of the non-core area.
As he strolled home, his thoughts drifted away again, recalling the scenes in the story involving Tsunade and Dan Kato.
From the limited scenes he appears in, it is clear that Kato Dan is a thoughtful person.
At the Jonin meeting, he was the only one who publicly supported Tsunade's proposal to become a medical ninja.
After the meeting, he deliberately brought up his deceased sister and took a detour to escort Tsunade home.
—Every word and action seemed to bear the marks of careful planning.
Of course, this scheme may not have been out of "malice," but it made the love that influenced Tsunade's life seem less pure.
Kato Dan's dream is to become Hokage.
Even though he is powerful, he comes from a small clan and has neither blood ties nor a master to the Hokage lineage.
However, if he could become Tsunade's lover or even husband, the biggest obstacle on his path to becoming Hokage would disappear.
At that time, Tsunade was about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, and it was her first love.
She is delicate, sentimental, and even a bit love-struck, and was easily captivated by the mature, steady, and handsome Kato Dan.
Hoshino Senju is a meticulous person and can easily empathize with Kato Dan's perspective.
He tends to believe that the relationship was largely the result of pre-planning.
Of course, Tsunade herself is outstanding in appearance and has superb strength. As the "Princess of Konoha", she is undoubtedly the perfect lover in the hearts of many male ninjas in the village.
However, those with enough strength and courage to take that step and actively pursue her are extremely rare in Konoha.
Xingyuan Qianshuo was lost in thought the whole way until he got to his doorstep, at which point he stopped his slightly conspiracy-themed speculation.
The house he lives in now was left by his ninja parents. The location is neither good nor bad, with a tributary of the Naka River to the south.
A standard wooden detached house, covered with blue tiles, could easily be called a small villa.
It looks much sturdier than the Might Guys' house in the original story, and the nearest neighbor is only a few hundred meters away.
Konoha Village is vast, with only the core area having high housing prices, while the cost of building houses in remote areas is not high.
For ninjas, distance is not a big problem; being remote and quiet is actually an advantage, as it is convenient for daily training, with training grounds and forests nearby.
There used to be a vegetable garden and flower bed next to the house, but they were abandoned after my parents passed away.
After Xingyuan Qianshuo awakened his memories, he began to clean up and organize them.
Thinking that the cheat system had already worked hard enough, if I were to race against time even more, how would others survive?
Xingyuan Qianshuo decided to rest tonight and reduce his training at public training grounds in the future.
Firstly, with the system in place, the effects of daily training are limited;
Secondly, the system will reward more ninjutsu in the future, so it is not advisable to expose it before its source can be reasonably explained.
The Dark Side and Root organization of Konoha are not just for show.
After taking a cold shower, Xingyuan Qianshuo continued to refine the plan for the medical specialty class.
Based on the information he gathered at school during the day, he needed to determine suitable chakra control test items, select teaching materials, and arrange teachers.
The course should not exceed the students' capacity, but it must also produce results as soon as possible.
I fall asleep promptly at 10 p.m.
Images of large, white, and voluptuous figures kept flashing through his mind. Hoshino Senju, relying on the strong willpower of a ninja, managed to stay asleep and did not make a move.
In the early morning, he had to change his underwear and wash it again in the bathroom.
……
For the next two days, Xingyuan Qianshuo continued to treat patients as usual and maintained communication with Sarutobi Daio.
Furthermore, he reports to Tsunade daily, diligently fulfilling his role as a capable subordinate assisting his leader.
In the past two days, he has treated a total of 47 patients: 28 civilians, 11 genin, 7 chunin, and 1 jonin.
Unfortunately, they are all nameless and faceless characters from the original work, so their personal stats increase slowly.
The only combat skill gained was "Kunai Thrust (Mastery)," a reward for healing that Jonin.
This allowed him to master some techniques for using chakra to activate his body, making his kunai thrusts faster, more accurate, and more powerful.
"Simply staying at Konoha Hospital and passively receiving patients makes it difficult to encounter characters with names and identities from the original work."
After closing the system panel, Xingyuan Qianshuo pondered to himself, "I really have to take the initiative. I hope the medical specialty class will bring great results."
They arrived at Konoha Hospital and reunited with Tsunade and Jabami.
Today, the Ninja Academy will conduct a special training session to select students with excellent chakra control.
"That's enough, you two. Stop wearing those ugly wooden clogs." Tsunade looked at Hoshino Senju and Orochimaru with a speechless expression.
"Is it ugly? I was planning to have all the medical students wear these wooden clogs to train their chakra control," Hoshino Senju replied.
"Yes! Senior Qian Shuo is truly amazing, coming up with such a brilliant idea!" She Ci quickly chimed in, "I feel like my Palm Immortal Technique has improved quite a bit these past few days!"
Both of them were wearing normal shoes, but the soles of their shoes were covered with a pair of wooden clogs without straps, as if they were glued on.
This is exactly the testing method that Xingyuan Qianshuo came up with—using the soles of his feet to gather an appropriate amount of chakra to absorb wooden clogs or wooden boards.
Simple, convenient, and safe, it is a perfect alternative to tree-climbing training that is not suitable for on-campus activities, thereby training and screening students' chakra control.
Tsunade ignored them and strode towards the Ninja Academy.
