Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage

Chapter 23 Could he be the child of prophecy?

Two days later.

Under your wise leadership, the "Medical Ninja Early Training" program has been approved and will now enter the trial operation phase.

[Reward: Strength skill upgraded by one level]

what?

Is Tsunade really that efficient?

and.

How could it have gone so smoothly?

Jingyan was somewhat surprised.

but.

After thinking about it carefully, he realized that things might not go very smoothly.

In what I said a few days ago, practical skills are the key, and early training is just a very minor branch of the "grading" and "professionalization" he vaguely mentioned.

but.

The previous prompt did not include any courses on practical skills or techniques.

Jingyan sighed softly.

In the medical field...

One reason is that Tsunade is indeed an authority, and the other is that Konoha really needs medical ninjas.

Medical ninjas are incredibly useful!

Over the years, they have saved many lives on the battlefield and in missions. With Tsunade promoting the early training of medical ninjas, it is indeed easy to pass the test.

But the others—

It will take a long time before an agreement can be reached.

And it turned out just as he had expected.

At that moment, a roar came from the conference room of the Hokage Building.

In front of Tsunade, the huge conference table was smashed into pieces of wood chips.

She was furious.

"Do ordinary genin really need so much complicated knowledge? They struggle to even survive on the battlefield; many genin are simply sent to their deaths!"

"Tsunade, you're not the only ones who've been on the battlefield; we've all fought our way through it!"

Danzo lectured him in a cold tone.

Koharu, the girl in the dorm, said, "The rules of the Ninja Academy were set by the Second Hokage..."

"Bullshit! The Second Hokage also said that we shouldn't send children to the battlefield, yet how many have graduated early over the years? Now you don't mention the Second Hokage's rules?"

Tsunade's tone was irritable.

"Tsunade!"

Xiaochun, who had switched dorm rooms, was trembling with anger, but...

She couldn't refute it.

"alright!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi kicked at the debris at his feet, looking helpless. "Tsunade, Jiraiya, we can try training medical ninjas ahead of time, but the reform of the ninja academy is too drastic, especially given the current situation. Let's wait and see."

Jiraiya was also helpless and somewhat resentful.

"Now that we have a brief period of peace, are we going to wait until war to try and change things instead of actively guiding and changing them?"

He now agrees with Tsunade.

These old guys are just too rigid and stubborn. They only want stability and are unwilling to change. They won't listen to anything I say.

Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent.

Finally, he shook his head: "There shouldn't be any major wars for the next few years. Let's stabilize things for a few years first, and then observe the situation again in a few years."

All countries and villages have suffered heavy losses in the wars of the past few years and all need to recuperate and restore their strength.

In his judgment, no ninja village would intervene again to launch a new war.

"That's settled then."

Tsunade stood up without saying anything more.

She was very disappointed!

……

"Tsunade, stop drinking! Actually, we both know very well that nothing can be discussed at the first meeting. It's already quite an achievement that we managed to get the plan to train medical ninjas ahead of time."

Jiraiya offered this advice.

Tsunade shook her head.

She drank another glass, and then became depressed.

"It's not about that, but rather that the teacher who was once wise and virtuous in my eyes has gradually become rigid, corrupt, and lacking in courage."

Jiraiya fell silent after hearing this.

He poured himself a glass as well.

After a long pause, Jiraiya asked, "What do you want to do?"

"To become Hokage!"

Tsunade's eyes were bright and piercing.

She slammed her hand on the table and stood up.

"In the hands of these old men, the village will only slowly decay and decline."

Tsunade's tone regained some of its spirit.

Then, she looked at Jiraiya and spoke earnestly.

"Jiraiya, you have to step up and fight for Hokage. I'll help you!"

Jiraiya rolled his eyes, got up and left.

"I think I should go check on Jingyan. This kid has recently learned Shadow Clone Technique. If he doesn't know his limits and kills himself, I'll lose a good disciple."

After Jiraiya left, Tsunade held her wine cup but didn't drink any more.

She looked out the window, her gaze unsettled.

……

Jingyan did not practice superhuman strength techniques, but instead focused on understanding and contemplation.

Master-level superhuman strength!

Upon reaching the "proficient" level, the gathering and release of chakra become much more subtle. Kyohiko, after reading many books, concluded—

Using this level of technology in small quantities should not backfire.

At the current level, I can't do what Tsunade or Tobirama Senju did, where I could effortlessly unleash terrifying attacks.

but.

The real point is not about using superhuman strength in actual combat.

Although it was only a one-level advancement, the knowledge, insights, and profound improvement that came with it benefited Jingyan immensely.

Just like a master-level teleportation technique.

The difference between beginner and expert levels of superhuman strength is enormous.

In reality, Kyohiko's abilities have not changed, but his control over chakra has become more refined, allowing him to quickly refine physical and mental energy and then rapidly gather it.

This forms the basis for the mature use of superhuman strength techniques.

One method can lead to many methods; many techniques are interconnected.

This fundamental improvement can also be applied to Water Release, Body Flicker Technique, and so on.

It's a greater boost than any single ninjutsu!

"From beginner to proficient is the advancement of chakra manipulation, but my body is still too fragile to use it continuously."

"I still need to train my body!"

"Furthermore, the next step should be compression."

Compress chakra.

This technique is not limited to superhuman strength techniques; Rasengan and Water Breaker also utilize this technique, although at different levels.

That's what Jingyan is currently studying.

compression!

This technique also has different levels. At a lower level, like Naruto, you can use shadow clones to assist you, but that's a method that relies on sheer strength and can make bricks fly, which isn't suitable for him.

To reach a higher level, you have to put in a lot of hard work.

For example, Tobirama Senju's Water Break Wave is the ultimate manifestation of compression.

although……

Sometimes, more practice is not as effective as a reward.

Jingyan constantly exercised and worked out in the courtyard, but after a while, he felt it wasn't enough.

This kind of exercise is too simple and doesn't provide any real training effect.

"The courtyard needs to be renovated."

He was busy all morning.

When Jiraiya climbed onto the wall, he saw that Kyohiko had cleared away all the weeds and wildflowers in the yard and erected wooden frames with sandbags hanging from them.

What are you doing?

He was confused, and then he saw Jingyan punch several sandbags.

Then--

Bang bang bang!

He was bounced back by the sandbag and knocked to the ground.

Fortunately, the sandbags had no sharp edges; they hurt but weren't fatal.

"Goodness, is this some kind of training for physical instincts? No, wait, Kyohiko is also wearing weights on his hands and feet."

Jiraiya was secretly alarmed.

A very cruel way of training.

This kid is ruthless to others, but even more ruthless to himself.

He's only seven years old!

When other children are seven years old, they don't train like this.
