The Hyuga clan guard left.
But the money was left behind.
Aoba agreed to this matter.
Whether it would succeed or not, he didn't know. He could only say he'd try his best.
Before leaving, the other party made it clear that no matter the outco, they wouldn't take the money back.
Perhaps, a re hundred thousand ryo was just a small amount to the Hyuga clan.
Holding the package in his hands, Aoba revealed a bright smile.
But that smile soon froze.
"When did little Aoba get to know a Hyuga clan's young lady?", Uzuki Yugao's voice carried coldness, along with grievance. She had thought Tenten was already the limit. Who knew there was another strong competitor?
Taking out a hundred thousand ryo so easily.
Watching Aoba's eyes sparkle as he held the money, she felt uncomfortable.
"Yugao-neesan, listen to ..."
Aoba carefully explained how he t Hinata.
After listening, Uzuki Yugao was also sowhat surprised, "Who would've thought that the esteed young lady of the Hyuga clan would almost be bullied by a few civilian kids?"
As Aoba opened the package and counted the money inside, he spoke, "What's so strange about that? Didn't Ino and the others almost get bullied before too?"
Uzuki Yugao was speechless, looking at Aoba, who was counting money, feeling sowhat helpless.
She knew Aoba's nature. Every ti he helped soone, it was out of kindness. But sohow, he always ended up attracting girls.
Unable to resist, she reached out and pinched his little face, "Little Aoba, if only you were a bit uglier."

[Morning]
Aoba, Uzuki Yugao, and Shirakumo Haya were having breakfast together.
"You want to learn dical ninjutsu?", Hearing Aoba's sudden request, both Shirakumo Haya and Uzuki Yugao were surprised.
"Yeah, if I learn dical ninjutsu, it'll be more convenient when I get injured in the future," Aoba nodded, his expression calm.
Seeing his matter-of-fact deanor, Shirakumo Haya couldn't help but say, "If you want to learn dical ninjutsu, Konoha Hospital offers training. But dical ninjutsu requires extrely precise chakra control. You've only just started learning chakra nature transformation, right?"
"Besides, if I rember correctly, your chakra nature is only wind. Learning dical ninjutsu with that would likely take twice the effort for half the results."
Shirakumo Haya wasn't against Aoba learning dical ninjutsu. Rather, dical ninjutsu required a special talent and a massive ti investnt.
Few people chose to study dical ninjutsu from a young age because children simply didn't have the patience to persist.
Even healing a single fish would take an unknown amount of ti.
But Aoba was different. Since he had already unlocked this ability, he might as well make full use of it.
He raised the chopsticks in his hand. With a surge of chakra, a sharp sensation emanated from them, yet the chopsticks remained undamaged.
Shirakumo Haya and Uzuki Yugao's eyes widened, "You've already mastered chakra nature transformation?"
"Not just mastered. Completely mastered."
Aoba grinned confidently, then used the chakra-infused chopsticks to slice through another chopstick. Splitting it cleanly in half with no resistance.
"You actually mastered it? But Aoba, yesterday you had only just begun learning it. How did you suddenly beco this skilled overnight?", Uzuki Yugao held the broken chopstick, staring at its smooth cut, finding it hard to believe.
"Haha, maybe it's just talent," Aoba obviously couldn't say he had "unlocked" another ability.
"Aoba is amazing."
Uzuki Yugao patted his head and then turned to Shirakumo Haya, "Sensei, in that case, I'll take Aoba to Konoha Hospital later. I don't have any missions today, and Sukui happens to be on duty there."
"…Go ahead and try. I just wanted to warn you about the difficulties, but the choice is yours."
———
After breakfast.
According to their agreed schedule, Hinata was supposed to et him in the afternoon.
So in the morning, Uzuki Yugao took Aoba to Konoha Hospital.
"Huh? Yugao, why are you at the hospital? Did you get injured?", In the office, Sukui, wearing a white coat, had just woken up from a nap. Adjusting the glasses on her nose, she looked at the unexpected visitor, still a bit groggy.
Still quite pretty.
Then, a small head peeked out from behind Uzuki Yugao.
"This little guy wouldn't happen to be...?", A gleam of light reflected off Sukui's glasses, instantly clearing away her drowsiness.
Uzuki Yugao pulled Aoba forward.
"This is Shirakumo Aoba, my little brother. He wants to learn dical ninjutsu. Do you have ti right now?"
"He's this young and already wants to learn dical ninjutsu?"
Sukui was surprised. This was the first ti she'd heard of soone so young deciding to learn dical ninjutsu.
Back when she graduated from the Academy, she had only chosen to learn dical ninjutsu because she couldn't find a better path. Fortunately, her talent was decent, and now she had beco an excellent dical ninja.
Uzuki Yugao and Aoba both nodded, confirming it.
"Well... have a seat first. Aoba, let see if you have any talent for dical ninjutsu."
Sukui walked to a fish tank in the office, which contained several green fish.
Normally, they were for decoration. When needed, they could be used as experintal subjects.
With swift reflexes, Sukui fished one out.
Then, with a precise flick to its head, the fish instantly fell into a sleep as deep as a baby's.
She placed the unconscious fish on a tray, turned to Aoba, and smiled.
"Watch closely. I'll demonstrate first."
Buzz!
A green glow of chakra quickly covered Sukui's hand.
"This is healing chakra. It stimulates the patient's cells, accelerating their division to achieve rapid healing."
She placed her hand over the fish.
Monts later, the fish's tail began slapping against the tray. It had co back to life.
Thunk!
Sukui swiftly knocked it out again and looked at Aoba.
"To stimulate cell division, you need to convert chakra into a life-filled nature—Yang Release Chakra."
"This requires a unique talent. You might be able to understand it yourself, but not many people can. You'll have to feel it out on your own."
Aoba naturally understood.
dical ninjutsu required Yang Release Chakra.
Logically speaking, since he had acquired [dical Ninjutsu Talent MAX], then Yang Release should also be included.
Recalling the feeling just now, Aoba covered his hand with a layer of glowing green chakra.
He placed his hand on the fish.
A while later, the fish's tail twitched a few tis… and then completely stopped breathing.
"Uh, this...", Aoba looked at Sukui, unsure what to do.
Then, he saw an expression of utter disbelief on her face, as if she had seen a ghost.
