After entering the room, Yugito took off her shoes and walked inside wearing knee-high white socks.
Having trained all morning, she planned to take a bath first and then change into some dry clothes; however, upon seeing Nohara Rin hesitating, Yugito knew it was her first time visiting someone else's home and she was concerned about many things.
"I'll go call someone for you, just wait here for a moment."
With that, Yugito went upstairs, recalling that Uzumaki Minami seemed to move less frequently after becoming pregnant unless someone came to see her.
In no time, Uzumaki Minami was brought downstairs by Yugito.
Upon seeing Nohara Rin, Uzumaki Minami took a moment to size her up, then smiled and asked, "Nohara Rin, can I just call you Rin from now on? I'm Uchiha Minami, and I'm going to teach you advanced medical ninjutsu from now on, so feel free to call me Teacher Minami."
'She's quite delicate, with fairly attractive features, but probably not to Lord Yoichi's taste, so no threat...'
As this thought flashed through her mind, Uzumaki Minami looked at Nohara Rin with a kinder gaze.
"Yes, Teacher Minami, please take care of me in the future."
Upon hearing this, Nohara Rin quickly bowed, and before she knew it, she was pulled towards the living room by Uzumaki Minami, who had come right up to her.
After calling Uzumaki Minami, Yugito returned to her room, intending to take off the knee-high white socks from her legs; thinking about it made her furious, as she seemed to have gradually gotten used to knee-high white socks due to that big pervert's coercion.
However, these long socks were not very friendly to training, as she had sweated a lot throughout the morning!
She needed to change!
Yugito secretly made up her mind, then opened the closet to find the compartment for socks, where at least two-thirds were white socks, including knee-high and half-knee ones.....
Elsewhere.
Uzumaki Minami thoroughly asked Nohara Rin about her mastery of medical ninjutsu and surgical experience. Upon learning this, she discovered that the girl who liked to wear facial patterns had a considerable foundation in medical ninjutsu.
She knew all the basic medical ninjutsu and had performed dozens of surgeries, so her skills and experience were not weak. With some proper training, she could become a medical Jonin.
"I roughly know your level now. Do you have any current missions?"
"Not yet, Teacher Minami. Our team is temporarily short of members, so we might have to wait until Kakashi becomes a Jonin to form a new team..."
"Your teammate is Kakashi, huh? Then come to my place every morning for three hours of training, and then head to Konoha Hospital in the afternoon. I'll teach you some advanced medical ninjutsu as soon as possible... By the way, medical ninjutsu can also be used in real combat, so don't neglect battle just because of medical ninjutsu."
Uzumaki Minami gestured to Nohara Rin with her fingers.
Upon hearing this, Nohara Rin's eyes lit up, eager to know what Uzumaki Minami meant by her last words, so she quickly asked, "Teacher Minami, how is medical ninjutsu used in battle?"
Uzumaki Minami thought for a moment and then said, "Do you have a kunai with you?"
"I do!"
Nohara Rin took out a kunai and placed it on the table.
"Watch closely."
Having said that, Uzumaki Minami formed a double-handed seal, then concentrated a chakra scalpel in her right hand, extending a chakra blade about ten centimeters from her four fingertips.
She then picked up the kunai on the table and directly cut it with the chakra scalpel.
"This is just one application. Actually, the chakra scalpel is somewhat similar to the Gentle Fist of the Hyuga Clan, but it's not as precise as to target acupoints; the chakra scalpel can sever meridians, organs, and muscles and bones, among other things."
Uzumaki Minami smiled as she placed the kunai back on the table and continued speaking to Nohara Rin, "Even though we don't have the Gentle Fist, as medical ninjas, we need to have a thorough understanding of the human body, so our fighting style is actually quite similar to that of the Hyuga Clan's ninjas...."
Nohara Rin nodded and said, "I see, I understand now...."
The chakra scalpel is an A-Class medical ninjutsu, although it's of the same level as the Mystical Palm Jutsu, its priority is lower than that of the Mystical Palm Jutsu. Only medical Jonin have mastered this technique.
"Alright, let's begin with learning other medical ninjutsu first. As for the combat training of medical ninjas... I can't teach you that right now; you can practice it yourself or find time to learn from someone else."
"Yes, Teacher Minami."
Nohara Rin immediately nodded upon hearing these words. Although they had been together for a short time, she felt that Teacher Minami was very kind to her, and she gradually grew to respect Uzumaki Minami from the bottom of her heart.
————————————
Uchiha Yoichi was also aware of Nohara Rin coming to his house for training, but he had some matters to handle recently and did not concern himself with it.
Orochimaru sent a message to Uchiha Yoichi, informing him that Danzo had sought him out, hoping he would campaign for the Fourth Generation Hokage, and promised that Danzo would support him.
Of course, Orochimaru didn't believe such words, though he knew his teacher intended to select the next Hokage, and the target wasn't him; this left Orochimaru a bit disappointed, even though he had guessed this outcome long ago.
This time, when Sarutobi Shinnosuke was on the battlefield in the Land of Grass, he used the Wood Release to slaughter enemies, and wasn't it because of his help? Orochimaru hadn't expected his teacher not to even consider him.
However, regarding Danzo's promise, Orochimaru wasn't foolish enough to believe someone whose position as head of the Root could be removed at any time by Teacher Sarutobi. The power of the Root stemmed from the Anbu, and Danzo's promise didn't hold a candle to Uchiha Yoichi.
After relaying this message to Uchiha Yoichi, Orochimaru continued with his research; this time, he witnessed a lot of death on the battlefield, and seeing the destructive power of those three Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, a desire for immortality and eternal life began to stir in his heart.
