Chapter 8 - Acting in front of Nono

"Kiyoshi, you don't have any problems."

Nono concluded, the faint green chakra in her hand dissipating.

Hearing this, Kiyoshi said, "But, I heard that everyone awakens their Sharingan with both eyes at the same time."

Nono replied, "There are always some special cases."

"I see."

Kiyoshi lowered his head.

He already knew the answer to his question.

In the original story, this same thing had happened to Sasuke.

During his battle with Haku, one of Sasuke's Sharingan had evolved into a two-tomoe Sharingan, while the other eye remained a one-tomoe, resulting in a mismatched pair.

It's just that such cases are particularly rare.

Nono carefully stored the examination equipment into a sealing scroll.

Her eyes glanced at Kiyoshi's slender figure, his dark eyes watching her.

Kiyoshi was unfamiliar with her current appearance, and more accustomed to her other form.

The Nono he was more used to generally wore a white hood.

Every casual movement could outline her full figure.

At the same time, Kiyoshi was also sorting out some other information about Nono.

Captain of Medic Corps, highly skilled spy in the Root's spy division.

Her espionage skills were so great that even after retirement, Danzo personally came to her door, forcing her to continue working for Root.

Therefore, Kiyoshi never considered showing off his skills in front of Nono.

He answered whatever she asked.

As for whether Kiyoshi was a spy?

That was just Kumogakure unilaterally trying to recruit Yotsuki Kiyoshi.

He, Uchiha Kiyoshi, hadn't responded yet. He hadn't done any spying at all.

As for whether he would do so in the future?

That was a matter for the future.

"By the way, Nono-sama, is the green chakra that just appeared in your hand the same as the one Tsunade-sama uses?"

Kiyoshi suddenly looked up, his voice tinged with a hint of curiosity.

Nono said, "Yes, this is medical chakra. The external color of a medical ninja's chakra turns light green when medical ninjutsu."

Nono nodded, a strand of blonde hair falling down as she spoke.

When medical ninjas use medical ninjutsu, their chakra mostly turns light green, with the Mystical Palm Technique being the most typical.

Nono saw Kiyoshi staring at the sealing scroll where she had stored her equipment.

She asked, "Are you interested in these?"

She knew about Tsunade coming to examine Kiyoshi's Sharingan.

She guessed that Tsunade had used medical ninjutsu for the examination, leaving an impression on Kiyoshi.

Kiyoshi's gaze fell on the sealing scroll she had just put away.

He asked thoughtfully, "This medical ninjutsu... can I learn them?"

Nono was slightly surprised, and paused for a moment in the face of this sudden request.

She looked Kiyoshi up and down. Although the boy in front of her was thin, she could see that Kiyoshi had a large frame.

If he trained, he would be a good taijutsu ninja.

Nono said, "Kiyoshi, you'd be better off learning taijutsu."

"Taijutsu ninja?"

Mikoto glanced at Kiyoshi. She had heard that Kiyoshi had some Yotsuki clan's characteristics.

Mikoto didn't know what these characteristics were.

It was probably talent or something beyond the ordinary, with unexpected abilities.

Kiyoshi said, "But... maybe other clansmen will encounter the same situation as me. At that time, I can help them in diagnosis like Nono-sama and Tsunade-sama."

Kiyoshi didn't hide the disappointment in his eyes.

He scratched his head softly, as if trying to hide his inner disappointment.

"So it's still not possible..."

At that moment, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly.

It would be fake to say he wasn't disappointed. If Nono doesn't accept him either, Kiyoshi will have to make other plans.

[Eloquence (White)] made Kiyoshi's tone more sincere.

Hearing Kiyoshi's words, Nono's heart skipped a beat.

She liked children, especially children who had lost their support.

"Don't worry."

She said softly, trying to appease the seemingly pitiful child in front of her.

"After you graduate from Ninja School, if your qualifications pass the medical ninja reserve test, come find me." Nono said a few more words than usual.

If an adult had come to her to say this, she would only let the other party take the test themselves and follow the normal rules, without getting involved herself.

But from the information she had gotten from Root, Nono knew that Kiyoshi had been an orphan since he was two years old.

Over the years, she actually had an idea in her mind, that is, to open an orphanage after retiring from Root.

Kiyoshi's appearance made this idea even more intense.

"Really?"

Kiyoshi's eyes lit up suddenly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

The faint melancholy in his heart seemed to dissipate a little.

Nono nodded, with a gentle smile on her lips.

She said, "What would I gain from lying to you?"

Mikoto, who was on the side, couldn't help but take another look at Kiyoshi.

This child was a bit different from other Uchiha clansmen.

Tsunade, who had come to examine Kiyoshi last time, had a cold attitude towards him and had no intention of taking him as a disciple.

But Nono seemed to have the intention of taking him as a disciple.

And according to Nono, he also has talent in taijutsu.

The current Uchiha clan has neither medical ninjas nor specialized taijutsu ninjas.

Uchiha ninjas, after graduating from Ninja school, all enter the Konoha Police Force to manage village security and carry out missions.

She herself is also like this.

Nono said, "Alright, Kiyoshi-kun, I have something to do, let's end here today."

Nono stood up and tidied up the sealing scroll.

Before leaving, her eyes swept over the books placed on the chair.

'He's a studious child.'

Nono commented in her heart.

"Yes, thank you, Nono-sama."

Kiyoshi stood up politely, wanting to see Nono off.

He and Mikoto escorted Nono to the boundary between the Uchiha settlement and the streets of Konoha.

There was an ancient door frame there, marking the Uchiha territory.

"Go back and train hard."

Mikoto left a sentence and left in a hurry.

Then, Kiyoshi walked home alone.

The moon and stars were sparse, and it was already night.

Kiyoshi breathed a sigh of relief.

Things had gone much smoother than he had anticipated.

Thinking about it, Nono would even teach medical ninjutsu to orphans who were not villagers of Konoha, let alone him?

Moreover, Nono also has the idea of retiring, and it she probably has fewer concerns. She has no weaknesses now.

Only when she becomes the director of the orphanage in the future will these orphans be used as hostages by Danzo to threaten her to become a spy again and lurk in enemy countries.

"Next, I have to improve my chakra control as soon as possible to meet the standard for learning medical ninjutsu."

The next day

Ninja School playground

"Today, we will have a small test, you need to run fifty laps!"

Katsuki blew his whistle, signaling the students to start running.

"Ah, it's running again."

"How much? Fifty laps?"
