Tsunade thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll have the old man arrange an excellent mentor for you."
It's no exaggeration to say that a medical ninja like Kabuto Yakushi would be highly sought after by every ninja team.
There's no way around it; medical ninjas are just too rare.
"I want to follow Kitazawa-sensei."
Kabuto Yakushi shared his thoughts.
He had personally witnessed Kitazawa's battle with two Jonin from Iwagakure, and Yakushi Nonou had just given him a further explanation.
"Kitazawa?"
Tsunade's face showed surprise.
She truly hadn't expected that Yakushi Kabuto would want to become Kitazawa's apprentice.
"Then you'll have to ask him; I can't make that decision."
Tsunade changed the subject and said with a smile, "But Kitazawa is more than qualified to be your teacher."
"I see."
The pharmacist nodded.
Tsunade chatted with them for a few more minutes before rushing off to the casino.
"Dean, shall we go find Professor Kitazawa now?"
"I am Kabuto," Yakushi asked.
"At this time, Kitazawa is in class."
Yakushi Nonou shook her head and said, "He comes to Konoha Hospital to learn medical ninjutsu after school. We just need to wait."
Time passed slowly.
Dusk came quickly.
Kitazawa's return did not cause much of a stir.
Most students just felt that Tsunade's disguise as Kitazawa was a bit strange, but they didn't think much of it.
Only Naruto Uzumaki and Hinata Hyuga noticed the problem and took action.
After school, Kitazawa went to Konoha Hospital.
He pushed open the door and saw an uninvited guest in his office.
"Teacher Kitazawa."
Kabuto stood up, smiled gently, bowed, and said, "Thank you for saving me and the director."
"You are welcome."
Kitazawa felt that his temperament was very similar to that of Yakushi Nonou, with a kind of easygoing feeling.
Thinking about it carefully, Kabuto Yakushi in the original work was indeed harmless during the Chunin Exams, completely fooling Naruto and the others.
"Teacher Kitazawa."
Kabuto Yakushi took a deep breath and said, "I have a favor to ask."
"what?"
Kitazawa couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"I would like to ask you to teach me ninjutsu."
"I am Kabuto," Yakushi Kabuto said with a serious expression.
"...?"
Kitazawa looked completely bewildered.
What's going on? The future villain wants to become my apprentice? How exciting is that?
Kitazawa was surprised, but also felt that it was expected.
After all, he was Kabuto Yakushi's savior.
The question is whether or not to take on apprentices.
Kitazawa waited a few seconds, and seeing that no new missions were triggered, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
But upon closer reflection, it makes sense.
The system believes that he is only six years old and has not yet graduated, so it is naturally not the right time for him to take on apprentices.
"I am a teacher at the Ninja Academy, and I have no plans to be a team leader for the time being."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and said, "But if you want to learn ninjutsu, I can teach you."
"Thank you, Kitazawa-sensei."
Kabuto breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's enough that you can teach me."
What kind of ninjutsu do you want me to teach you?
Kitazawa paused for a moment and then said, "I guess it's not medical ninjutsu."
Although his medical ninjutsu skills are already quite high, they are still not as good as Yakushi Nonou's.
"I want to learn Wind Release and Water Release."
Kabuto Yakushi explained, "These are my two innate chakra natures."
Kitazawa raised an eyebrow and recalled the contents of the original work.
Kabuto Yakushi never used Wind Release, but he used Water Release quite a few times.
For example, he used Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique and Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique when fighting Uchiha Itachi.
Besides that, he used Orochimaru's snake-type secret techniques the most.
But given the current situation, it's unlikely he'll ever encounter Orochimaru again.
Kitazawa seemed to be deep in thought.
In that case, it would be a waste of Kabuto's research capabilities.
However, he currently has no solution.
"I'll teach you Wind Release first."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and said, "Come find me at the school's training ground at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
[Your reputation as a genius has already spread to a small circle, and you are willing to teach all those who have come to learn from you.]
[Current Mission: Help Kabuto Yakushi learn three basic Wind Release ninjutsu.]
[Task Reward: Earth Attribute.]
【Whether to accept? 】
Kitazawa let out a soft "hmm".
Taking on an apprentice didn't trigger a quest, but it was unexpectedly triggered here.
Is it associated with the element Earth?
He already possesses five of the seven attributes, only lacking lightning and earth.
This task isn't too difficult.
Kabuto Yakushi's ability to learn so many medical ninjutsu demonstrates his exceptional chakra control; he should be able to learn three low-level wind-style ninjutsu very quickly.
Kitazawa seemed to be deep in thought.
He discovered a small pattern in how the system triggered tasks.
There are two types of tasks: one that is related to him and one that is related to others.
As for tasks involving other people, that person must be an important character in the original work; they don't necessarily have to be his students.
"I just had surgery."
Yakushi Nonou appeared at the door.
"Dean."
Kabuto immediately replied, "Teacher Kitazawa has already agreed to it."
"Then you must listen to what Kitazawa-sensei says."
Yakushi Nonou looked at Kitazawa and said very seriously, "I won't say anything more. If you need anything in the future, just come to me."
Her entire life had been coerced by Danzo Shimura, but now, for the first time, she had true freedom.
Not only that, Tsunade and Kitazawa also helped her solve her worries, so she no longer had to worry about the funding of the Konoha orphanage.
"You flatter me, Nono-senpai."
Kitazawa smiled and didn't refuse.
A good medical ninja's reputation is still very valuable.
Most importantly, Yakushi Nonou's adopted son is Yakushi Kabuto, the future villain.
With Yakushi Nonou's promise, Kitazawa no longer needed to worry about Yakushi Kabuto betraying him.
Night was falling.
I spent another whole night learning the Palm Cultivation Technique.
Kitazawa and Shizune left Konoha Hospital.
As soon as the door opened, Kitazawa saw the beautiful Kurenai standing there.
Jingyin glanced around, suppressed her gossipy curiosity, and walked into the living room without saying a word.
When did you get back?
Kurenai Yuhi crossed her arms, leaned against the door, and stood with her legs straight.
Although his tone was calm, Kitazawa could still detect a hint of complaint.
"I came back this morning."
Kitazawa stepped forward, put his arm around her waist, and said, "I'm sorry."
Kurenai Yuhi paused slightly, taken aback.
Since Kitazawa was so self-aware, she couldn't afford to lose her temper anymore.
"Remember to let me know in advance next time you go out on a mission."
Kurenai raised her leg and stepped on his foot, saying.
"The mission was urgent this time, so there wasn't enough time."
Kitazawa ran his fingers through her soft hair and said softly, "Next time we have the chance, let's go out on a mission together."
"That's more like it."
Kurenai suddenly glared at him, grabbed his wrist, and said, "Lady Tsunade and Shizune are here, don't touch me!"
"Is it okay if they're not around?"
Kitazawa felt the curves of her waist and hips with his left hand and asked with a smile.
"Let's see...let's see how you do."
Kurenai blushed, pushed him away, and turned to run away after saying that.
Kitazawa blinked, not reacting for a moment.
Does this mean she agreed?
Kitazawa snapped out of his daze, closed the door, and went into the living room.
Tsunade, Kurenai, and Shizune sat side by side on the sofa.
Kitazawa's gaze unconsciously swept over their bare feet.
They are truly... each has its own merits.
"You guys chat, I'm going to learn ninjutsu."
