"Shizune, is this what you've been learning recently?"
Under the night sky, in the small courtyard.
Tsunade looked at Shizune in disbelief. Before, she could have handled Shizune with one hand.
But just now, Shizune actually made her use her feet?
Although her carelessness was a factor, it showed that Shizune's strength had improved.
"Eh! Yes! Tsunade-sama!" Shizune quickly and flusteredly put away her Eternal Fist moves, responding with a shy expression.
Even though she only made Tsunade-sama move a little more, to make her so disbelieving, Shizune felt as if a little person inside her was cheering.
"Well done!"
Thwack—
Tsunade, annoyed, ca over and flicked Shizune's forehead.
This girl, even if she's secretly gloating, she should at least try to hide it a little. I'm still standing right in front of you, and you're already plotting.
"Hiss..." Shizune covered her reddened forehead.
Tsunade's flick was neither too light nor too heavy, it just made her forehead turn red.
"But what's going on with your hand?"
As Tsunade spoke, her gaze fell on Shizune's right hand.
How could she have trained enough to fracture a bone in such a short ti?
"Uh, it was just when I was sparring with Karin, I got shaken."
Shizune helplessly pulled down her sleeve. Although she could heal this kind of bone fracture with dical ninjutsu, the best thod was still to warm it with dicine, since it wasn't during a mission.
dical Ninjutsu could indeed heal it, but it mainly depended on the individual's physique and was very prone to leaving hidden injuries.
"Karin?" Tsunade's lips twitched.
So Shizune, who had been under her for over ten years, was actually injured by a disciple that Shinji had just taken in?
"You lost?"
"No, it was just the way Karin did it, I wasn't prepared for it." Shizune quickly waved her hands.
If she admitted that, how could she still face anyone?
Listening to Shizune's explanation, Tsunade finally dropped her expression.
What a huge loss, to not have been able to take in such a disciple.
Although Shizune's description was very one-sided, Tsunade understood so things.
Perfectly inheriting the physique that an Uzumaki should have, vast Chakra reserves, coupled with precise control. This was simply a replica of Kushina, no, it should be said that she had even more potential than Kushina.
After all, that physique that allowed one to recover Chakra and injuries by being bitten was abnormal.
Tsunade shook her head, no longer thinking about it.
"When you have nothing to do, go find that brat Shinji more often. Try to grow a bit more."
At this mont, even Tsunade couldn't help but admit it. Shinji was indeed very good at teaching people. And Shizune only learned for a few days.
If Shinji didn't have a thorough understanding of this Taijutsu, how could this be possible?
If Shizune was really that much of a genius, she would be able to learn the Strength of a Hundred Seal.
Most likely, Shizune ca up with an idea, and Shinji advised her from the side.
"Yes! Tsunade-sama!" Shizune nodded, this was also what she thought.
Before this, she had never thought that she wouldn't need to rely on cunning thods to fight. Although cunning had its advantages, sotis that feeling of powerlessness wasn't very pleasant.
Over the years, there were tis she even needed Tsunade, who suffered from hemophobia, to protect her. Things that should have been easy to solve often ended up in a ss.
—
Hokage Office.
Shinji was buried in his work, while Hiruzen had gone out for a stroll.
Knock, knock—
An urgent knock sounded, and before Shinji could respond, the door was pushed open.
"Hokage-sama, I have sothing—"
Mid-sentence, Guy, who had entered with an urgent expression, froze.
Shinji, on the other hand, had an amused expression, looking at the Guy in front of him. "What's wrong, Guy-senpai?"
"Shinji, it's you? No, elder!" Guy ca to his senses, blurted out a sentence, and then quickly corrected himself.
"It's fine, Guy-senpai." Shinji waved his hand.
The Council Elders was just a position set up by Hiruzen.
Haven't Jiraiya and Tsunade barely shown up for attendance until now?
"What's the rush about?" Shinji looked at Guy curiously.
He knew that Guy had taken on an A-rank mission not long ago. After all, Guy's team mbers, besides Neji, were two Chunin, fully qualified to lead an A-rank mission.
And it seed that this was the last ti he would lead a team, as the two Chunin would then be assigned to other squads. This A-rank mission could be considered a unique way to add to his resu.
As for S-rank missions, forget it, these weren't common tasks.
The ninja who had taken on the most S-rank missions in Konoha was Jiraiya, one of the Sannin. It should be said that all three Sannin were major players in S-rank missions. These missions were mainly before the Third Great Ninja War.
Moreover, the current Orochimaru himself was an S-rank mission target.
"I just passed by the Intern Ninja area and saw a promising talent, and I want to take him in." Guy stated his purpose.
Shinji was stunned, then thought for a mont before realizing who Guy was talking about.
"Are you talking about Rock Lee?"
Guy was taken aback by Shinji's question, as he had only observed the child briefly. And it seed he was about to go on a mission, so he decided to co here first.
Shinji shook his head helplessly, and took out the list of this year's intern ninjas from the drawer. After finding Lee's information, he pushed it in front of Guy.
"Is it this one?"
Guy quickly picked it up and his eyes imdiately lit up. "That's him!"
Shinji nodded.
With the Intern Ninja system in place, he had been wondering if Guy would miss Lee because of it. Unexpectedly, their fate was still so wonderful.
Shinji skillfully stated Lee's evaluation, "This child has done well in his internship, but his evaluation regarding Ninjutsu is that he has no talent whatsoever."
"Only his physical abilities are outstanding, so he is still in the observation phase."
This was compiled by the leading instructor.
"No problem! I admire him for that!" Guy grinned, giving a thumbs up.
Shinji sighed and nodded, saying, "Alright, I'll arrange this, but he still needs to pass the necessary assessnts."
Intern ninjas were in their assessnt period. It wasn't unheard of for soone like Lee to be noticed and taken in by a Jonin mid-way. However, they would have to undergo another assessnt, not necessarily for outstanding grades, but for a special skill.
Guy nodded. "Don't worry, I'll conduct this assessnt. If he doesn't et the requirents, I won't intentionally let him pass."
After all, the matter of intern ninjas was approved and issued by the Hokage.
"Okay, but you still need to choose one more." Shinji nodded, stating another matter.
After all, current squads consist of one Jonin instructor and three Genin.
