Naruto: I, Shikotsumyaku, Byakugan Princess

Chapter 129 The first lesson of school

"If I want to become a medical ninja, I wonder if you have any way to help me."

Hui Li got straight to the point.

That's right.

This is the only way she can think of to save herself.

Having seen those Yang Release scrolls, she could roughly guess the principle behind how medical ninjutsu works.

Transforming chakra into pure life-healing energy, and using superb chakra manipulation skills, life force is gradually infiltrated into the cells, accelerating cell division and protein synthesis.

To break through the limits of life and create her own immortal body, she needs two steps.

The first step is to convert external chakra into pure life force without impurities. The second step is to use the Eight Gates to open the 'gates' and reverse the process to inject external life force into the Eight Gates.

If she can successfully complete these two steps, she will not only be able to obtain the Sage Body, but also later avoid Kaguya's will within the Tailed Beasts and steal Kaguya's chakra without any hidden dangers.

The transformation of life force in medical ninjutsu may be the key to solving the first step.

"You want to become a medical ninja?"

Upon hearing Hairi's words, Chihaya Toru's drooping brown hair began to shake in surprise.

Chihaya Toru himself was a medical ninja, so he naturally knew how difficult it was to become one.

Each type of medical ninjutsu is extremely difficult to master, and it also contains knowledge of pharmacology, pathology, and human physiology, requiring a great deal of time to study.

It wasn't that he looked down on Hui Li's talent.

As the saying goes, if you understand one thing, you understand everything.

With talent at Hui Li's level, she would definitely learn anything much faster than ordinary people, but studying medical ninjutsu would inevitably take up a lot of time.

Who in Konoha doesn't know about Ash Ketchum's talent in combat? To waste such a combat genius's time becoming a medical ninja would be a waste of her talent, wouldn't it?

"I don't recommend you become a medical ninja."

Chihaya Toru shook his head:

"The learning cost of medical ninjutsu is very high, and superb chakra control is a hard requirement. If there is a problem with your body, I am happy to help, there is no need to waste time learning medical ninjutsu."

"I don't want to become a medical ninja."

Hui Li raised her hand.

A faint purple chakra gathered in his palm.

呲!
Suddenly, a sound like some kind of paper being torn came from the corner of the table.

Chihaya followed the sound and looked in that direction.

The pale pink succulent in the pot was sprouting new green shoots from below.

The green leaves unfurled and then quickly curled up, the purple light of chakra reflecting the sunlight, and the newly grown green surface faded to a light pink, even looking somewhat like glass.

"Wood Release? No, it's Yang Release!"

Having spent half his life researching medical ninjutsu, Chihaya Toru immediately recognized the profound mystery of the vibrant purple light emanating from Kairi.

"I've recently been studying the nature transformation of Yang Release, which requires me to apply medical ninjutsu to other areas."

Hui Li withdrew the vibrant chakra from her palm.

After absorbing the power of the Nine-Tailed Fox, she also inherited that vibrant power.

Besides healing the physical body, she discovered two days ago, when she tried to practice the Yang Release nature transformation, that the dissipated power could actually accelerate plant growth.

Some of the withered potted plants in Kakashi's house sprouted new buds and came back to life under this power.

"Yang Release... is very dangerous."

Looking at the thriving succulents with some apprehension, Chihaya Toh's expression was extremely grave:

"The corrosive power of life is extremely strong."

It is neither as unruly as thunder nor as explosive as flame, but if not controlled properly, the resulting physical mutations will be permanent and may even extend to future generations.

Do not attempt to study this forbidden power!

But you're trembling with excitement, Dr. Chihaya!
Hui Li looked up at the top of Chihaya Toh's head.

Excitement, agitation, fear, and greed intertwined, stretching endlessly like a crisscrossing network of tree roots.

She said she didn't want to study Yang Release, but the desire deep inside her was something even she feared. Since gaining the Nine-Tails' ability to sense good and evil, she had indeed seen many unimaginable things.

"This is incredible!"

Chihaya Tou placed the apple on a napkin on the table, hugged the succulent to her chest and examined it closely, occasionally glancing up at Gray Glass, her eyes filled with the look of someone who had seen some rare treasure.

"Dr. Chihaya, about my learning medical ninjutsu..."

Seeing Chihaya Toru immersed in the power of Yang Release, Kairi frowned slightly and gave her a timely reminder.

"Oh yes, I'm sorry."

Chihaya patted her head, put the flowerpot down, and her expression returned to normal, but there seemed to be something different in her eyes as she looked at Hairi:
“Developing Yang Release ninjutsu is extremely dangerous. Choosing to learn medical ninjutsu... is indeed a good choice and is safer.”

Here's what I'll do: I'll write you a letter of recommendation. You could attend the medical ninja training program at Konoha Hospital for a while; it might be helpful.

"That's great, thank you for your help."

When Chihaya Tohru's attitude suddenly changed after checking the succulents, Hairi pretended to be delighted, but inwardly she became more wary.

Look up.

The benevolent light shone brighter, but having learned her lesson from Hiruzen Sarutobi, Hairi no longer fully trusted the judgment of this ability.

The white of my eyes allows me to see into my body; my muscles contract and my heart races—this abnormal feeling of excitement…

There's something off about this Dr. Chihaya.

Wipe...

The pen tip rubs against the paper.

Chihaya Toru hunched over the table and quickly wrote a letter of recommendation.

"By the way, who is the teacher of this medical ninja training course?"

“The instructors for the training courses are usually the chief physicians who take turns teaching. I am the one teaching this batch of students.”

Click!

Secure the pen cap tightly.

Chihaya Toru quickly finished writing the recommendation letter, folded it up, and then took out a red stamp from the drawer and stamped it.

"After I get off work in a little while, I will give the letter to the doctor in charge of training. You can go to the medical class every weekend to learn the basics."

"Don't try Yang Dun on your own. If you have any questions, you can come to me."

Chihaya Toru's face was full of friendliness and concern, but seeing the longing gray glass above her head made her feel a little chilly.

"grateful."

Having achieved her goal, Hairi quickly got up and said goodbye to the strange Dr. Chihaya.

Medical ninjutsu is a must-learn. As an elite Jonin and a disciple of Hiruzen Sarutobi, ninety percent of the dangers in Konoha are unlikely to pose a threat to her.

Moreover.

From now on, only her shadow clones will come to Konoha Hospital to study. No matter what Chihaya's intentions are, they will not be able to harm her real body.

She is now in an invincible position.

Close the door.

Da da da……

As the footsteps outside the door gradually faded away, Chihaya Toru's friendly smile became even more unrestrained.

Click!

Picking up the red apple on the table, I took a big bite, and the sweet and sour juice dripped down my purple lips.

He looked down and continued to examine the medical reports on the desktop.

The report was only one thin sheet of paper.

The report contained a wealth of medical data, with a girl's photo printed at the very top.

In the photo, a silver-haired girl with bright eyes lies on a hospital bed with her face covered in blood, a gaping wound in her chest that cannot be closed, and she is on the verge of death.

"What terrifying resilience!"

With a sigh, Chihaya shook her head, folded the report, placed it under the potted plant, and pulled out another sheet of white paper, quickly writing something.

Outside the door, a white-haired girl walked slowly down the corridor.

Beneath the black cloth, a purple light shimmered. ...

Two days later.

Half past five in the afternoon.

The Hatake clan's training ground is a bare open space in the middle, with several scarred wooden round targets standing on the southeast side. Opposite them is a device resembling a lightning rod used for practicing Lightning Release ninjutsu.

The lack of training equipment made the venue appear much more spacious.

Right in the center of the venue.

Wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, Hui Li sat cross-legged on the ground with her brows furrowed.

Looking inward with a disdainful gaze.

From head to chest, five points of light formed a thin line inside the body, shimmering with green light.

After her desperate battle with Ye Yuexiong, her fifth gate showed signs of loosening. In the past few days, she has put more effort into cultivating the inverse eight gates, and the 'Du Gate' has indeed opened.

Rock Lee, who only had the strength of a Chunin, was able to kick Gaara like a ball when he opened the Gate of Absolute. After Ash opened it, he found that his chakra had indeed increased significantly, but at the same time, the feeling of exhaustion from his rapidly burning life force also came with it.

A life force, like a gentle stream, surged into the heart, and the purple aura within the chakra core intensified.

The scattered bone veins seemed to be stirred by this power as well, and began to draw chakra to become stronger.

Hui Li's eyes narrowed.

The power of the white eye is activated.

The life-devouring chakra core suddenly stopped, like a jammed machine. The Corpse Bone Pulse creaked unwillingly, but under the control of the eye power, it could not absorb more chakra and could only fall into silence again.

Seal off the chakra seed in the heart and the bone veins.

After Hui Li expelled the life force drawn out by the Du Gate from her heart, she controlled the flow of this life force through her meridians, reversing the flow of the Eight Gates Formation.

hum!
The life force rapidly returns and collides with the life force flowing out from the 'gate' in the meridians.

Intense pain spread through my meridians.

Hui Li calmly shielded herself from the pain, the purple light protecting her meridians, allowing the two life forces to remain locked in a stalemate within her body.

Time passed by minute by minute.

The amount of life force within the meridians grew increasingly large, and the backlash became increasingly powerful until finally, no more power flowed out of the 'gate'.

Seeing that the power of the Eight Gates was exhausted, Hui Li quickly seized the opportunity and pushed the somewhat viscous life force in her meridians, little by little, into the 'gate'.

The acupoints that were emitting a green glow suddenly shone even brighter, and the life force in the meridians, which was as sticky as glue, was divided into five parts and compressed back into the 'gate'.

goooo...

Life flows back.

The emptiness in her body was instantly filled, and Hui Li felt as if she were in a hot spring, and the fatigue of burning life instantly disappeared.

Reverse the Eight Gates.

It became.

With the Eight Gates Formation closed, an invigorated Hui Li stood up and dusted off his bottom.

Absorb external chakra, convert it into pure life force using medical ninjutsu, and then simply inject the life force into the 'gate'. Repeat this process continuously, and the Sage Body should automatically take shape.

Although there may still be many unclear and difficult points in the process, such as how to absorb chakra, whether the life force converted from other people's chakra is pure, and whether it can be absorbed directly, etc.

But at least she has already completed the overall design of the ninjutsu; the remaining details only need to be dealt with one by one.

The Corpse Bone Clan didn't have much time left for her; her previous five-year expectation was actually somewhat conservative.

Judging from the rate at which the spots on her bones are growing, it will take at most two and a half years before all of her bones are tainted by the gray power.

Thinking of the kunai that, upon touching the ash bones, became as fragile as a biscuit, I wondered if her body could withstand such power.

Ah, if only we had interstitial cells!

Hui Li felt a little regretful.

Hashirama cells can solve the problem in one step. Even if she cannot adapt to human modification, she can accelerate the development of the Reverse Eight Gates by studying Hashirama cells.

pity.

Not only was there no suitable channel, but her teacher, Sarutobi, would absolutely not allow her to touch such things.

Standing in the center of the training field, Hui Li looked up at the red clouds that stretched across the sky.

As the Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi had a very tight schedule, only able to dedicate two hours each week to teaching her ninjutsu.

Today is the scheduled teaching day.

Every day, Hui Li would look at the Lightning Release Chakra Mode in his hand with envy, but he didn't have a way to train the Lightning Release Nature Transformation. He was already impatient.

It wasn't even five o'clock yet, and they were already at the training ground, trying out the Eight Gates while waiting for Hiruzen Sarutobi to arrive.

Judging by the time, it should be almost time.

Hui Li activated her White Eyes, penetrating three walls, and looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table in the bedroom from over 500 meters away. The time displayed on it was already 5:40.

Was something delayed?

Sa!
Just as this thought crossed my mind, a ball of chakra suddenly flashed by at an extremely fast speed in the distance.

Its chakra reserves are three to four times greater than those of Gray Glass.

Needless to say.

There are very few ninjas in Konoha with that much chakra.

As the person approached quickly, Hui Li, who had already confirmed their identity with her Byakugan, stepped forward: "Old Sarutobi..."

Whoosh!
The words have not yet fallen.

The kunai that flew in at lightning speed interrupted Hairi's remaining words.

Byakugan observes the flight path of the kunai.

The kunai, gleaming with a cold light, pierced straight into Hui Li's brow.

The chakra within his body rapidly underwent a wind-style nature transformation, and a wind-style release filled with tearing power was instantly expelled from his mouth.

Ping!
It was like two sharp swords clashing.

The kunai made of refined iron was sent flying backwards instantly, its sharp blade riddled with nicks by the wind-style chakra.

Bang!

call……

His divine robes billowed in the wind as Hiruzen Sarutobi leaped over the wall, landing alongside the shattered kunai.

"Wind Release without a seal? Not bad!"

Seeing that Hairi easily neutralized the sneak attack, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately nodded in approval.

"you are late."

Having waited for half a day at the training ground only to be ambushed, Hui Li was truly annoyed, and her tone was particularly cold.

"Sorry, I've been quite busy with work these past few days."

At this point, a hint of apology appeared in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes, then he looked at Kairi and quickly said:
"Before class starts, we'll first test your fighting style."

Let's have a real-world test first. That way, I can tailor my subsequent teaching based on your fighting style. Our time is precious, and I hope we don't waste it on unimportant emotions. What do you say, Grey Glass?

"agree."

Gum!

Gum!

Transparent chakra bubbles rise.

A tailed beast cloak, even more crimson than the setting sun, enveloped her body, gradually blurring the girl's features, even her signature silver hair was dyed fiery red.

Looking at the familiar tailed beast cloak in front of him, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but recall the carefree red-haired girl.

What a resemblance!
"can we start?"

"start!"

boom!
The earth trembled.

A deep pit suddenly collapsed in the center of the training field, and dirt flew everywhere.

The crimson figure, like a cannonball, slammed into Hiruzen Sarutobi's arms.
