After completing several system-assigned missions, Hagoromo Gengetsu has gained a profound understanding of the system itself and its operational principles.
For instance, when the system required a written test against Sakura, Gengetsu took it literally. He presented an extrely difficult test for Sakura, while it was rely elentary for him, yet the system still recognized his victory.
You see, there was a test, Sakura was present, and Gengetsu participated. The details didn't matter. The system often exaggerated terms like "fierce battle," "ardent pursuit," and "painstaking effort." So, a highly uneven written test was certainly acceptable. The key elent is the ceremony!
"Keep it up, Sakura. You have great potential in both dical ninjutsu and genjutsu."
"Ino, your strengths still lie in your family's secret techniques."
After conducting his experint with the system mission on the two girls, Gengetsu, having no need to deceive them, pointed out their future paths clearly. He then left the laboratory and headed to the consultation office to start his day.
Learning dical ninjutsu alone was not enough; it required nurous practical applications. The patients at the Konoha Hospital provided an excellent opportunity. Additionally, Gengetsu found that the deeper he delved into dical ninjutsu, the more thoroughly he understood Yang chakra.
This was undeniably good news for him. Throughout his studies of the seven chakra natures, his deepest research had been on Fire, Earth, Wind, Water, and Lightning. Although he had also delved into Yin and Yang properties, his understanding wasn't as profound.
After dying and coming back to life, Gengetsu made significant progress in Yin and Yang properties, but it was still not enough. Using dical ninjutsu to further his understanding of Yang chakra was an opportunity he couldn't pass up.
Thus, he was the first to arrive at the Konoha Hospital and the last to leave, letting the other doctors there truly understand the aning of "competition."
After treating a Konoha ninja with a pierced leg from a recent mission, Gengetsu turned around to see the head of the hospital's research departnt, Keika Miyata, approaching him. She said, "Dr. Souke, your application for the A-Class research lab has been approved. You have seven days to conduct your research there. But be careful not to damage any equipnt. Trust , you and I couldn't afford to replace even one piece."
"Seven days, huh?" Gengetsu nodded. "I understand. Thank you, Captain Miyata."
"No problem. Talented individuals like you deserve better resources and training," Miyata explained.
This was why Gengetsu hadn't kept a low profile. If you're not excellent, how can you get the higher-ups to notice and give you more resources?
For example, the A-Class research lab. This kind of facility, capable of supporting research and analysis on many aspects of dical ninjutsu and chakra, wasn't sothing ordinary dical ninjas could even dream of applying for.
Gengetsu's recent innovative contributions to the dical field were the reason his application was approved.
"Dr. Souke, keep up the good work. It won't be long before even Lord Hokage hears your na. You're young and talented. Like Shizune, you might beco the next personal disciple of Lord Hokage," Miyata sincerely encouraged before leaving.
Gengetsu expressed his gratitude and watched Miyata's departing figure with a slight smile, thinking, "A disciple of Tsunade? What an interesting proposal. I wonder how Tsunade would react if she knew the truth."
"Wait, that would an I'm the one losing face, while Tsunade gets the upper hand," he mused. "Becoming her disciple would be a huge embarrassnt for ."
Of course, Gengetsu had no intention of becoming Tsunade's disciple. He had no need to waste ti on that.
"Seven days should be enough. If not, I can always sneak back in."
Gengetsu touched his chest. Over his ti in Konoha, he had perfected the extraction of Sage Chakra. Applying for the research lab was to use its precision instrunts to further explore the secrets of Sage Chakra.
He wasn't an old-fashioned person who would stick to traditional thods if more efficient ones were available. Efficiency was paramount. If this helped him unlock his unique Sage Mode, it would be perfect.
He could never forget the sight of Hashirama Senju standing on the giant Buddha during Sage Mode.
In the afternoon, following the instructions, Gengetsu arrived at the Konoha Hospital's research building. Aside from the Root's secret labs and so top-secret research, most of Konoha's research projects took place here. The security was tight, and Gengetsu passed through three checkpoints.
Thanks to the Perfect Transformation Technique, he reached his temporary A-Class research lab without any issues. After the guarding ninja opened the sealed door, Gengetsu didn't enter imdiately. He t the ninja's gaze, subtly activating his Eye Engraving Technique, and politely said, "Thank you."
The ninja didn't notice anything, just waved him in.
Gengetsu smiled and walked in. Thanks to the Eye Engraving Technique offered by Hanare, all the information he needed was now accessible to him.
"Ti to get to work."
As the door closed, Gengetsu looked at the advanced biological, cultivation, scanning, and analytical instrunts and smiled. The technology in the ninja world was oddly advanced in so areas. Most places still lived in a feudal era, but the advanced instrunts here were on par with, if not better than, modern technology in biological fields.
This was the foundation of the top ninja village. Even if his clan had the funds to build such a lab, they wouldn't have access to these advanced instrunts. Konoha wasn't stupid and wouldn't spread such crucial research tools.
"First step, extract Sage Chakra precisely."
Gengetsu took off his shirt and prepared to begin his work.
