"Finally home!"

Looking at the gates of Konoha, Genichi under the tree let out a long sigh.

This mission took less than three days in total, making it the shortest mission I've ever carried out.

But it was the most dangerous and the most intense battle.

To be honest, if Sakumo Hatake hadn't returned in time while they were by the lake, he and Nagao Uchiha might have been killed by the Sand Ninja.

After all, both of them were already at their limit at that time.

That was perhaps the closest I ever got to death.

Now that he's back in Konoha, his tense mind has relaxed, and Genichi inexplicably feels a sense of belonging to Konoha.

"Humans still crave stability!"

Xuan Yi sighed inwardly under the tree.

He wasn't the only one whose mind was relaxed; Yamanaka En couldn't help but stretch and yawn, saying, "When I get back, I'm definitely going to take a long nap."

Although Uchihachi Hajime had a cold expression, it was clear that his whole body had relaxed.

Upon entering the village, Sakumo Hatake smiled and said, "Dismissed!"

"Yes!"

The three people under the tree responded with a shout, then used their teleportation technique to disappear from their original positions and return to their respective homes.

Sakumo Hatake, however, cannot return home so quickly.

He arrived at the Hokage Building as quickly as possible and was soon received by the Hokage.

Hokage's office.

Sakumo Hatake submitted a report detailing the entire process of the mission.

Hiruzen Sarutobi listened while smoking, somewhat surprised by Genichi Koushi's performance.

Although Genichi Kishita is a genius and has performed well in the year since graduation, he has been exceptionally outstanding this time.

It's not just about combat effectiveness, but also about the overall strategic vision and decisiveness in battle; such thinking is extremely rare.

With such thinking and decisiveness, if he were even stronger, he would become another outstanding ninja capable of standing alone.

After listening, Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "Genichi is an outstanding child and should be nurtured further."

Sakumo Hatake nodded: "Understood!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi added, "Genichi and Ryouichi performed exceptionally well in this mission, and the village will reward them with a chance to choose a ninjutsu."

"Langyi can choose a B-rank ninjutsu, and Xuanyi... can choose any ninjutsu except for forbidden techniques that cannot be practiced."

Sakumo Hatake was shocked. Was this another attempt to cultivate Minato Namikaze?

However, after the initial surprise came joy, and he quickly said, "I believe Xuan Yi will not disappoint Lord Hokage."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded with a smile.

He believed it too.

He had a very high opinion of Genichi Kinoshita, both in terms of his ideas and his talent.

Hopefully, ten years from now, Genichi Kinoshita will be another Minato Namikaze, becoming a sharp blade for Konoha.

After Sakumo Hatake left the Hokage Building, Genichi Kinoshita and the other two had an additional record of completing an S-rank mission added to their files.

As for what the mission is, top secret!

……

When Genichi woke up under the tree, it was already evening.

I stayed in bed for five minutes, then washed up and went downstairs to help out at the meatball shop.

After dinner, Genichi Shushita went out alone and strolled to the outside of Shizune's house.

Unfortunately, the mute function is not available.

After thinking for a while, Genichi Kinoshita went to Tsunade's house again.

The person who answered the door after I knocked was indeed silent.

"Xuanyi!"

The silent mode was a pleasant surprise.

Then Tsunade's lazy voice came from behind: "Who is it?"

Genichi followed Shizune into the room and then saw Tsunade sitting on the veranda with a bottle of sake in her hand.

"Lady Tsunade, I am Genichi Kinoshita."

Xuan Yi bowed respectfully under the tree.

Tsunade squinted: "It's you!" It was their first time meeting.

Although Genichi was very polite and good-looking, Tsunade was still a little unimpressed: "Kid, what are you doing here?"

This is asking knowingly.

After a moment's thought, Genichi under the tree honestly said, "Lady Tsunade, I came to find Shizune to go to the hospital to study together."

Tsunade glanced at Genichi under the tree: "I heard you have a great talent for medical ninjutsu?"

Under the tree, Xuan Yi said, "Actually, it's just so-so. I'm just more hardworking than others."

"I have a talent for water-style techniques."

This is a fact.

Even without any special abilities, he is still quite talented in water-style techniques.

Unfortunately, the amount of chakra is limited.

Shizune chimed in, "Lady Tsunade, Genichi works incredibly hard and rarely has time to rest."

Tsunade's impression of Genichi Kinoshita improved considerably, and she became less prickly: "I heard you also learned sealing techniques from that idiot Jiraiya?"

"At your age, you should focus on one direction."

Genichi scratched his head and said helplessly, "Lady Tsunade, it's because I've already made very little progress in Water Release techniques."

"Water Release requires a lot of chakra to perform in a waterless environment, and my chakra is very limited."

That's why I want to learn other things.

"I think sealing techniques might be able to solve my problem."

Tsunade frowned slightly upon hearing this: "Chakra levels... At your age, you shouldn't be worried about chakra levels, right?"

Indeed, compared to his peers, Genichi Kinoshita's chakra reserves are definitely not small.

After all, he is seven years old now, but he actually has the physique of a fourteen-year-old.

Genichi Shushita didn't offer any explanation, but instead formed hand seals.

Formerly!
The next moment, water droplets around Xuan Zhou under the tree condensed and gathered, forming a water flow that swirled around him.

Tsunade's eyes widened at the sight, as if she were seeing her second grandfather.

In a waterless environment, when Genichi uses the Water Array Wall technique, it consumes more than three times the chakra required for the same scale.

Release your hands, and the water flowing around you immediately disperses, then drops away one by one.

But then Genichi under the tree opened his hands, palms facing forward and downward, forming the "zai" seal, and then brought his hands back and clasped together.

The water droplets rapidly coalesced again, forming a stream of water that surrounded the body and continued to surge upwards.

picture!
so similar!
Tsunade was stunned.

Genichi Shushita withdrew his ninjutsu and said, "Lady Tsunade, if I use Water Release like this, my chakra can only support three ninjutsu at most."

The water escape technique he mastered required a large quantity to be truly powerful.

Tsunade snapped out of her daze and said, "Your water jutsu is indeed quite good."

"Three ninjutsu techniques are enough."

"You're still young, so the missions you're undertaking won't be too dangerous."

"As you grow up and your body develops, your chakra will be able to increase further."

Genichi under the tree also knew.

Although he now possesses the physical attributes of a fourteen-year-old, his physical development has not stalled.

When he grows up to be fourteen years old, his chakra limit will definitely double.

But who would complain about having too little chakra?
Not to mention, he lacks a sense of security and likes big trees. Genichi under the tree.

During this mission, Genichi Shushita was meticulous in his planning and even occasionally ate some military rations, which didn't feel good.

Not only do the soldier pills taste bad, but they are also not pills that directly replenish chakra; they require time to digest.

Tsunade, of course, did not understand Genichi's urgency and sense of crisis. She kindly said, "Don't push yourself too hard, it's not good for your development."

"Don't let yourself stunt your growth!"

As she spoke, a teasing smile appeared on Tsunade's lips.

Genichi under the tree could only give an awkward laugh.

He couldn't very well ask Tsunade directly if she could learn the Yin Seal.

This information alone is difficult to explain clearly.

Oh, what a headache.
