Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

"If she can't come out to see me, can I go in to see her?" Naruto asked.

“This…” The maid from the branch family hesitated, “Wait a moment, I’ll go ask for instructions.”

A short while later, the branch family maid returned and said, "I'm sorry, but no, Lady Hinata needs to rest and shouldn't be disturbed."

Naruto frowned.

What's wrong? I need rest... Am I sick? Or injured? Or just overworked?

As the door closed, Naruto paused for a moment, then turned and left, pondering how he could see Hinata and check on her condition.

"Uzumaki Naruto."

Hearing someone call his name, Naruto subconsciously turned around and gave a puzzled "hmm".

"It really is you!" The newcomer's eyes widened in surprise.

Naruto looked down and saw who it was. He was stunned. It was Hanabi.

"Did you come here specifically to see your older sister? Why are you dressed like this?" Hanabi asked curiously.

"You know me?" Naruto was surprised; he had never seen Hanabi before.

Hanabi would never say something like, "I followed my sister and discovered she was secretly spying on me."

"You haven't answered my question yet. Why do you dress up as a girl? Is it your hobby?" Hanabi asked.

"Ahem, don't talk nonsense." Naruto chuckled dryly, trying to cover up his mistake, "I just don't want to cause trouble."

"Troublesome?" Hanabi asked, puzzled.

She rarely goes out, spending most of her time at home studying and practicing spiritual cultivation, so she doesn't have much contact with the outside world.

I learned the name Naruto Uzumaki from my sister's sleep talking.

"It's a long story, we'll talk about it another time. First, tell me, what happened to your sister?" Naruto said.

"Why change the date? Let's do it now," Hanabi said.

My older sister became the heir to the main family, and my father and grandfather focused their attention on her.

As the younger sister, she will be separated from the family in the future, so her academic pressure will be greatly reduced. She doesn't want to go to the ninja school, so she will have plenty of time and freedom.

“Explain your situation clearly, and in exchange, I’ll tell you about my older sister,” Hanabi said.

Naruto scratched his face and looked around, but saw no one. They must be hiding in the shadows.

Before the Caged Bird Seal was inscribed, Hanabi was still a member of the main family and needed to be protected.

More than half an hour later.

In the small park.

Sitting on the swing, licking the sparkle of an apple candy, her pure white eyes sparkled with innocence.

After listening to Naruto describe his situation, she couldn't understand why her sister would like Naruto.

Which aspect do you like?

"Big sister, you took some money from home before..." Hanabi.

“I gave it to me.” Naruto.

"How much?" Fireworks.

"Fifty million." Naruto.

"..." Hanabi.

Okay, there's no problem at all, and it's not a misunderstanding. My sister likes this person 100%.

No money.

Unpopular.

He doesn't have a devastatingly handsome appearance.

They do not possess terrifying strength comparable to the Hokage.

Hanabi sighed regretfully. Even her perfect older sister could be wrong.

"It's really rude to sigh while looking at someone else's face," Naruto said, speechless.

"There's nothing I can do, it's just too different from what I imagined," Hanabi said, then couldn't help but sigh.

"Oh, what kind of brother-in-law do you imagine?" Naruto asked curiously.

“I don’t have a brother-in-law,” Hanabi said.

"Huh?" Naruto was stunned.

“No one is good enough for Big Sister!” Hanabi puffed out her cheeks and said.

Almost forgot, he's also a sister-complex character, Naruto chuckled to himself.

Hanabi said dejectedly, "Since my older sister likes you, I won't say anything more. Just be nice to her in the future and don't make her sad or upset."

"I understand." Naruto smiled and said, "It's my blessing to have met such a wonderful girl as your sister. I will cherish it very much."

Upon hearing this, Hanabi's expression softened considerably.

"Now you can tell me, what's going on with your sister?" Naruto said.

"My eyes hurt," Hanabi said truthfully without hiding anything.

"Four days ago, I was sparring with my older sister when she suddenly covered her eyes and cried out in pain."

"Even the clan's medical ninjas can't alleviate the pain; they can only rely on medication to help reduce it."

"Eye pain?" Naruto asked, puzzled. "Why would my eyes hurt out of nowhere? What could be causing this?"

"I don't know," Hanabi shook her head, looking worried.

"Neither my father nor my grandfather know what caused it."

"Through X-ray vision, I can see that my older sister's Byakugan is absorbing her chakra, but why this is happening is unknown."

Is the Byakugan absorbing chakra? Naruto frowned, thinking of Hamura's chakra, and then of the Tenseigan.

"Ever since I obtained Hamura's chakra, my eyes have been itchy, as if they are undergoing some kind of transformation," Naruto thought to himself.

"Hinata's Byakugan is already extremely pure. If it were to become even more pure, could it turn into the Tenseigan?"

Even if it's not the Tenseigan, it's probably close to it.

"What happened to cause Hinata to change like this?" Naruto pondered.

Compared with other storylines from the same period.

It might be related to his encouragement.

Encouraged by him, Hinata was full of confidence and enthusiasm.

Chakra is an energy that is inseparable from spirit, will, and belief.

Perhaps Hinata's mental state resonated with Hamura's chakra, thus triggering the effect of Hamura's chakra.

It could also be related to the system's check-in function.

How the sign-in function works is unclear and difficult to explain.

Considering that checking in requires energy and involves a cooldown period, it's somewhat like a copying process.

Based on the perfect Hashirama cells obtained from the Tsuchina daily check-in, there should be further optimization effects.

Could it be that during the sign-in process, Hamura's chakra was activated, allowing him to influence Hinata in advance?

There are many speculations, but none can be confirmed.

"The pain comes in waves, sometimes good, sometimes bad. These past few days, my dear sister has had a very tough time," Hanabi said.

“I want to see your sister,” Naruto said.

Although he couldn't directly relieve Hinata's pain, if his visit, encouragement, and comfort could make Hinata feel a little better, that would be the best outcome.

“It’s difficult enough for me to even see him, let alone you. Father would never agree to it,” Hanabi said, shaking her head.

"Well, could you at least pass on a few words for me?" Naruto asked as a second choice.

Hanabi thought for a moment and nodded.

After Naruto finished saying he would help carry it, Hanabi blushed slightly and said, "That's so cheesy, I'm getting goosebumps."

Naruto smiled without saying a word.

Hinata would definitely not be able to handle it if he said it to her face. It would be much better if she went through Hanabi as a stopover. At least she wouldn't faint so easily.

Chapter 50 My name is Kurama…

It was a little past 2 p.m.

Near the small park, in a relatively secluded spot, Naruto was exercising when Hanabi, who had sneaked out, appeared.

Because Hanabi didn't want to see her cross-dressing brother-in-law, which she found very strange, Naruto went home and changed back to his original appearance.

"How is it?" Naruto asked.

"I relayed your words to my brother-in-law, and my sister's face turned bright red all of a sudden, and she started rolling around on the tatami mat again," Hanabi said with a look of curiosity.

"And at noon, he ate five buckets of rice in one go, such big buckets!"

"It doesn't seem to hurt anymore. After resting for a while after dinner, I wanted to go cultivate, but my father stopped me with a strong attitude, so I gave up."

"I checked with my Byakugan. My sister's Byakugan is still slowly absorbing her chakra, without any change."

"Before, I was so upset that I couldn't sleep or eat. Why did I change so much after just hearing a few cheesy words?"

"How amazing!"

Upon learning that Hinata's condition had improved, Naruto felt relieved and casually remarked, "When you find someone you truly love and receive their encouragement and support, you'll be full of energy too."

"Really?" Hanabi exclaimed excitedly.

"There's no need to wait until later. I love my older sister the most. If she praises me more, it will have the same effect."

"I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to find my older sister. Goodbye, brother-in-law."
