Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage

Chapter 147 Master-level Acupressure, Acupuncture Therapy!

Jingyan returned home and opened the control panel.

Creating ninjutsu is also a way to strengthen the village.

Under your leadership, the "Five Gates" acupressure technique, which has a high degree of applicability, was developed.

[Reward: Acupressure Enhancement]

"The acupressure technique has been improved."

After developing the technique of combining the Lion's Mane with acupressure and stimulating the Tanzhong acupoint, Jingyan's acupressure proficiency reached the level of mastery, and he's now leveled up...

Master-level acupressure.

After receiving and integrating the memories, Jingyan was overjoyed and immediately understood the source of his master-level advancement.

The control of acupoints is more precise and perfect, and there are many more special acupoints for treatment and recovery, many of which are the results of exploration and research within this month.

but.

Some of them stem from knowledge gained in a previous life.

such as--

Acupuncture!

Acupuncture was already a widely used medical technique in his previous life, and theoretically it can be used in this life as well, but Jingyan just doesn't know it.

With the additional memories in his mind, he can now reproduce acupuncture treatments.

Jingyan did a somersault, his heart pounding with excitement.

but.

After a few seconds, he decided to wait a little longer.

Neither he nor Tsunade have been able to find the time lately; they have a lot of things to do.

It's not too late to go find Tsunade after we've summarized and compiled the Five Forbidden Acupoints and acupuncture techniques into a complete theoretical document.

……

Hyuga Hizashi, without stopping, finished his report and, disregarding the night and taboos, went directly to the main family head's residence.

"Lord Hizashi, is there something you need so late?"

"I have something important to report."

Hinata Hizashi said sternly.

The attendant nodded and immediately went to the courtyard to report.

Not long after, in the Hyuga family's living room, Hyuga Hiashi, dressed neatly, sat upright.

The Japanese messenger entered, first bowed, and then explained his purpose.

"Master, this is the result of my recent research with Orochimaru and Kyohiko. This matter is important, so I could only write it down and then find you at night to have you review it."

He presented the book with utmost respect.

Hiashi Hyuga nodded slightly, took the book from his hand, and slowly began to read it.

A few minutes later, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Five forbidden acupoints.

A weaker version of the Eight Gates Formation...

He pondered for a moment, then asked, "How effective are these five acupoints?"

"The effects vary, but for our Hyuga clan, the most important are undoubtedly the four acupoints from the Injury Gate to the Shock Gate. These four acupoints can enhance our taijutsu abilities, but the side effects are also quite obvious..."

Hijiri's expression was serious.

Strictly speaking, this is a forbidden technique derived from the Eight Gates Formation.

In the past, the Hyuga clan's weakness was that they weren't strong enough in terms of upward mobility. When they encountered opponents with strong defensive capabilities or high agility, it was difficult for them to use Bagua Palm to defend themselves.

but.

Once they master this technique, they can also unleash some of the limits of human strength.

As for side effects...

A life-saving technique, why worry about side effects?

Hiashi Hyuga had a bright smile on his face, and his gaze toward Hizashi became much friendlier.

"Although the Hyuga clan is one of the most powerful clans in Konoha, there are still many people in the entire ninja world who are stronger than us, but some people in the clan have forgotten this fact."

"If we want to become stronger and restore the glory of the former Hyuga Tenjin, we must strive to improve and take another step forward, but this is by no means something that one or two people can do."

Hiashi's tone and eyes softened, and his expression became more amiable as he stood up and helped Hiashi up.

After making eye contact with Hizashi, he smiled slightly.

"Hisashi, we are brothers. We must unite as one and cooperate with each other."

Then he moved closer.

"Some things are difficult to solve in our generation, but they may be solvable in the next generation and the generation after that."

Hizashi looked up in surprise, a hint of astonishment in his eyes.

This is……

What does that mean?

His heart pounded; he was excited but couldn't believe it.

Hiashi Hyuga, is he really willing...?

"Really? Really?"

"As the head of the family, I have to be responsible for the entire family, so you may not have a very good impression of me, but I have been trying to find ways to change things."

Hiashi said earnestly, "The recent changes in Konoha have given me some inspiration."

"What inspired you?"

The daily change asked in a low voice.

He feared that Japan's strategy was too aggressive, and also that Japan was just making empty promises and deceiving him.

Japan is serious.

He understood that the only person in the clan who could truly help him and was firmly on his side was Hyuga Hizashi.

They are brothers, and...

He can control the caged bird.

Hiashi asked, "What was Konoha like before it was controlled by Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo? What is it like now?"

"You mean...?"

"We're still young; we shouldn't act like the older generation. Times are changing, and the Hyuga clan must change too!"

Hiashi Hyuga said earnestly.

The daily variation was unbelievable, yet it seemed quite reasonable.

In the past, those clan elders and family elders repeatedly opposed Riji's decisions.

Japanese football team has likely been dissatisfied for a long time.

He was excited and happy that Japan was willing to do that, but...

"What do you plan to do? Don't rush things!"

Daily moods are very complex.

On the one hand, the division of the family plunged those who were separated into a desperate situation, but on the other hand, this system effectively preserved the Hyuga clan.

otherwise.

With the power of the Byakugan, it's probably impossible to pass it down safely and completely for so long.

Hiashi said, "I cannot abolish the system of main family and branch family, as it is the foundation of the family, but I can slightly change its rules."

"Many of their branches not only loafed around doing nothing, but they were also arrogant and conceited, treating the branch families as nothing."

Hiashi Hyuga said earnestly, "What happened before has damaged their prestige. Thanks to the cooperation of Kyohiko and Orochimaru, and with your help, I can gain more influence!"

At this point, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

"Bloodline and birth shouldn't allow them to remain in power forever. Rather than letting incompetent people hold power, why can't the descendants of those who have rendered meritorious service rise to the top?"

Hyuga Hizashi's lips trembled, his heart pounding.

Those who have made contributions...

This means that the lineage of the next generation will be determined by their merits.

but.

He thought about it and then realized it wasn't right.

"This is advantageous for the division of the family, but since members of the main branch cannot go to the battlefield, how will their merits be determined?"

"this……"

Hijika frowned.

That is a problem.

The purpose of this tradition passed down through generations of the clan is to ensure that the clan members do not go to the battlefield, so that they will not be humiliated by the enemy.

If merit is the deciding factor, the main family will be at a natural disadvantage.

strength?

That won't work either. Judging by strength, the family will inevitably fall into chaos sooner or later.

Rizu frowned.

He intended to promote the superior and demote the inferior, but setting rules is indeed not that easy.

After a moment's thought, he said in a low voice, "Indeed, one person's strength is limited. We still need someone to talk to and come up with ideas. Richa, let's both think it over carefully and figure out if we can come up with a better solution. This matter concerns the future of the main family and the branch families."

"Yes, Master!"

Daily life is filled with mixed emotions.

He could tell that Hiashi was serious.

This matter concerns himself. If a suitable plan can be implemented, his descendants, and even some of the descendants of the branch families, can be reinstated into the main family.

The problem lies in defining these quotas, opportunities, and selection criteria.

Richa took a deep breath.

however.

The mere existence of hope is enough for the descendants who have separated from the family to risk their lives.

Who wouldn't want the next generation to be free from the curse seal?

……

Konoha, Hokage's office.

Tsunade stared at the scroll in her hand, lost in deep thought.

Another forbidden technique.

Do not!

To be precise, this forbidden technique is a supplement and expansion of the previous one.

This is the real, complete version.

"The five forbidden acupoints each have different effects, but their effects are not necessarily limited to this aspect; when used properly, they can also have other abilities."

Jingyan reminded him.

Tsunade nodded slightly and continued looking behind her.

Immediately afterwards, she saw the section on acupuncture, and her expression immediately froze.

Acupuncture?

She read it word by word, pondered for a long time, and then put the book down.

"Have you tried it?"

"Currently, only a limited number of acupoints are used, but this effect is achievable. Moreover, treating internal organ injuries through acupuncture and detoxification can, to some extent, alleviate the damage to the body."

"Kyohiko said."

He then pointed to the "Life Gate" acupoint.

"Can acupuncture be used as an adjunct treatment in the early stages of Moonlight Gale's condition to suppress his cough frequency and prevent the lung disease from worsening?"

"If what you're saying is true, you can definitely try it."

The sooner the symptoms of Moonlight Gale are resolved, the better; even if they cannot be resolved, their deterioration must be suppressed first.

and.

If it could really have such an effect...

Therefore, this is undoubtedly a huge innovation for the medical field.

Tsunade realized this.

The value of acupoints is far greater than she imagined; no wonder Kyohiko went to great lengths to obtain their long-treasured collection from the Hyuga family.

She pondered for a moment: "Kyohiko, are you confident?"

"If it's the Shengmen acupoint, I'm confident."

Jingyan nodded.

Tsunade stood up: "Let me try it first. I've been staying up late lately and arguing with the old men, so my throat isn't feeling too sore."

Then, she complained.

During yesterday's meeting, she almost smashed another table.

The three old men are too stubborn.

After much persuasion, those people finally accepted the plan and stopped questioning and arguing.

"it is good."

Jingyan did not hesitate.

If it were yesterday, he would have been slightly worried, but today...

does not exist at all.

He didn't have any needles yet, but he had a very thin wire that he immediately taut by infusing it with chakra.

Immediately—

Insert the needle!

laugh.

With a soft sound, an extremely fine needle, imbued with chakra, fell at Tsunade's "Gate of Life" position.

A warm, gentle chakra, starting from the needle, spread outwards along the chakra meridians, gradually reaching the entire throat and the area above the lungs.

Tsunade's first thought was—

Comfortable!

My throat felt instantly soothed and cleared!

Such a minor illness would normally not require medical intervention; given her constitution, she would recover in just one or two days.

But this is for adults.

Many children and the elderly are different.

Their bodies and immune systems are more vulnerable, so this method is just right.

Tsunade's eyes gradually brightened.

"Walk!"

"Start with the most basic symptoms, like pharyngitis and cough."

……

"Teacher, is it okay?"

Kurenai Yuhi was filled with unease.

Tsunade nodded confidently: "It will definitely work, don't worry."

Kurenai glanced worriedly at the door.

feasible……

We need to hurry, otherwise there will be another commotion if we're a few steps slower.

She sighed inwardly.

At this time, Kyohiko had already prepared temporary equipment.

After disinfecting and preparing, he decisively inserted the needles, quickly and accurately pinpointing the acupoints as if by instinct, and channeling and spreading chakra.

Tsunade was actually quite nervous.

Based on previous experiments, she was basically certain that Jingyan's claim was feasible.

but.

But when it comes to "real combat," that's a different story.

Can it work?

One second, two seconds.

"Cough cough."

The old man began to cough repeatedly in his hospital bed.

Based on his perception and chakra levels, Kyohiko can basically determine the patient's condition.

Three seconds later, he immediately helped the other person up.

"spittoon."

"yes!"

Yuhi Hong immediately took out the spittoon.

Outside the door, a man stormed in angrily.

"Tsunade, you're going too far! Don't you even remember you're a medical ninja?"

Koharu suppressed her anger until she reached Tsunade's side, at which point she finally erupted.

Tsunade was about to answer.

A violent coughing fit came from inside the room, but just from the sound, she knew the other person's condition was improving.

Previously, I had symptoms in my throat and lungs, but now my voice is almost fully recovered.

"Shut up!"

Tsunade turned around and glared at Koharu in the next room.

She then listened attentively to the situation.

Koharu was stunned by the shout and it took her several seconds to react. Just as she was about to scold him, she saw Kyohiko inside the room, intently administering acupuncture.

Both acupoints are treated simultaneously.

The elderly man had been coughing violently, but now his condition is undoubtedly improving rapidly.

A few more seconds passed.

Jingyan removed the needle, a relaxed and pleasant expression appearing on his face.

He didn't know what traditional Chinese medicine was like in his previous life.

but.

The combination of acupuncture with medical ninjutsu and chakra was clearly very effective, curing the disease in a short period of time and essentially removing the lesions.

"Incredible!"

As a professional medical ninja, Koharu Utatane naturally understood what this scene meant—

The elderly man, who had been coughing incessantly and was on the verge of death, has now fully recovered and only needs to rest and recuperate.

and.

Such methods do not damage one's vital energy.

She looked at Tsunade in disbelief.

"this……"

"Senior advisor, as a medical ninja, I certainly know what I can and cannot do. Since I've let Kyohiko take action, it means I'm confident."

Tsunade answered earnestly.

Xiaochun's face flushed as she turned to her new room, and she remained silent.

Such methods were far beyond her comprehension.

"Kyohiko, are you still capable?"

"Of course, this method doesn't take much effort."

Jingyan smiled.

With master-level acupressure skills, such techniques are extremely easy to master.

He paused, then asked, "What about the Hyuga clan members?"

"Study elsewhere."

Kurenai Yuhi answered.

Then, she quickly turned the corner and said, "I'll go get them right away!"

"Just call one or two, there won't be enough room for more."

Jing Yan said.

Such techniques might take a normal medical ninja a period of time to learn and master, but for the Hyuga clan ninjas, pressure point striking is a family tradition.

They will definitely adapt quickly.

A short while later, Hinata Yuuka arrived with one person.

When she arrived, Kyohiko was already treating his second patient.

Gang pointed, indicating that she should use her white eyes to observe.

She nodded gently.

Then, Hinata Yuuka couldn't help but show surprise and shock in her eyes.

What perfect chakra manipulation!

His chakra permeated his lungs and throat, seeping into every part of his body like water, nourishing the damaged areas.

Adding or subtracting even a fraction could significantly diminish the effect.

During this time, she had witnessed many medical ninjas' treatments, but none of them were as skillful and perfect as Kyohiko's.

no doubt.

If Kyohiko were to study medicine, he would surely become the next Tsunade.

even.

There is a high probability that in the future, he will surpass Tsunade, who has already reached the pinnacle!

That's truly amazing.

Hinata Yuuka was amazed, but her attention became even more focused.

If she was already like this, then the other member of the Hyuga family was even more so, completely immersed in the moment, intently observing and memorizing Kyohiko's techniques.

Teaching sessions like this won't happen too often!

Every time you miss it, it's the last chance.

After watching for a while, a look of horror appeared in her eyes.

Jingyan turned around: "Did you remember?"

"Yes, but..."

Hinata Yuuka hesitated for a moment, then said, "Your methods are too exquisite and too fast; we can't quite understand them."

"It's okay, take your time."

Jingyan walked towards the next room.

Not long after, another treatment was completed.

This time, Hinata Yuuka understood.

This is acupressure!

Kyohiko's pressure point techniques were even more exquisite and perfect than those of the Hyuga clan members. Among the people she had ever met, perhaps only Hyuga Hiashi could rival Kyohiko.

Unbelievable!

Her eyes were bright, but she also felt a little ashamed as she said, "Kyohiko-kun, your acupressure technique is too powerful. We are afraid we cannot achieve your level."

"It's okay, you can practice slowly. And you don't necessarily have to reach my level. As long as you achieve similar results, you can still heal and save lives."

Jingyan said in a gentle voice.

Tsunade and Kurenai Yuhi, standing nearby, were deeply moved by what they heard.

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

They understand medicine, but not the techniques of acupressure; they only know that acupressure is a signature technique of the Hyuga clan.

So how come Hinata Yuuka said that Kyohiko, this outsider, was stronger?

"This kid..."

Tsunade took a deep breath, suppressing her excitement, and then felt a touch of emotion.

If Jingyan's talent were weaker and he weren't as well-rounded, how wonderful that would be! In that case, he would definitely be my most perfect successor!

And now.

Becoming his own successor, ironically, limited Kyohiko's own development.

Really...

Tsunade sighed inwardly, but was also happy for Kyohiko and Konoha.

Having such a genius is undoubtedly a blessing for Konoha!

As for Koharu, she could no longer understand it very well, but she knew that Kyohiko's technique was very skillful and powerful, and he could basically cure several ailments in the hospital quickly with acupuncture.

Such diseases can be treated with traditional methods, but not as quickly. Even if they improve, the elderly and children will need a long period of rest.

Then, she thought of something.

For the past few months, Kyohiko and the Hyuga family have been tinkering with something. Could this be the result of their research?

Xiaochun, who had just turned to her room, seemed to be deep in thought.

then……

She looked at Tsunade.

"Tsunade, can this technique be used on that child?"

"It is unlikely that acupuncture and acupoint therapy alone can cure the disease, but this method can be used to temporarily suppress the symptoms and treat the disease slowly, laying the foundation for future treatment."

Tsunade answered.

Xiaochun, who was turning over to her dorm, nodded with a complicated expression.

If Kyohiko's treatment is indeed related to acupoints, then it may develop into a major category of medical ninjutsu.

How many years has it been since we've seen something like this?

That's truly amazing!
