Hokage: Immortal, I Open Unlimited Eight Gates

After hearing Uchiha Chiba's reasons, Uchiha Genka felt that it made sense.

Although it is a time of peace, it's inevitable to encounter various dangers when doing tasks outside, just like what happened to her late husband.

"Yes, but learning Medical jutsu is very difficult, so you need to be mentally prepared," Uchiha Genka warned.

"Don't worry, Mom, I will study hard and won't give up halfway."

"Okay then, I'll teach you some basic knowledge after dinner."

After dinner, Uchiha Genka began explaining the basic theory of Medical jutsu: "First of all, there are two prerequisites for learning Medical jutsu. The first is to master the nature changes of Chakra Yang Style. The second is to be able to master our Chakra control."

"Now, let me teach you how to master Chakra control..."

Half an hour later...

"Let's stop here for today. Chiba, if you have time, practice more. I will teach you the nature changes of Yang Style once you are able to master your own Chakra."

Uchiha Genka got up and walked to the bathroom.

After Uchiha Genka left, Uchiha Chiba recalled what his mother had just said about mastering Chakra control.

He could start by attaching Chakra to the soles of his feet and practicing by climbing trees or treading water. Once he could stand stably on the water without falling and could slowly walk up a tree trunk, he would have initially mastered it.

Then, he would need to start learning the changes in the nature of Yang Style. Once he figured out how to do it, he could start practicing on his own.

"First, beat a fish to death, then use Yang Style to treat it. If it succeeds, repeat the process. If it fails, no problem—just use it for extra meals."

To be honest, he already knew these methods from watching the anime. He thought that real Medical jutsu would be more complicated.

Was this really it?

In fact, Uchiha Chiba had a cognitive error.

Learning Medical jutsu wasn't as simple as he thought. If it were that easy, Tsunade wouldn't have proposed forming a medical class after Nawaki's death.

The next day.

It was almost noon when Uchiha Chiba went to the hospital, but first, he stopped at Uchiha Mikoto's house to deliver a portion of the prepared bear paws.

After all, Mikoto and her grandfather were family, so they had to taste the good food.

The rest would be divided between Tsunade, his mother, and himself.

Carrying the lunch box, he headed to the hospital and first went to Uchiha's office.

When he entered, he found no one there, so he put the lunch box on the table and left a note.

Then, he went to the dean's office.

Knock knock knock

"Come in."

After Uchiha Chiba knocked on the door, Tsunade's voice came out immediately.

"What's the matter?"

"Sister Tsunade, it's me. I'm here to bring you bear paws."

Tsunade, who had been busy with paperwork, didn't look up and kept working, thinking it was someone else. But when she heard Uchiha Chiba's voice, her serious expression immediately turned into one of surprise.

"It's you, Chiba? You brought it to me so early?"

"Is it early? It's almost 12 o'clock, Tsunade-san," Uchiha Chiba said, glancing at the wall clock behind her.

"Ah? Really? Time flies so fast! I was just thinking about being hungry, but I didn't realize it's almost noon." Tsunade then looked expectantly at the lunch box in Uchiha Chiba's hand. "Quick, quick! Let me taste what these bear paws are like."

"Here, eat quickly, Sister Tsunade. I brought it as soon as it was cooked. It's still hot."

Seeing Tsunade's eagerness, Uchiha Chiba handed over the lunch box.

Tsunade hurriedly opened it, and a strong fragrance rushed out along with the heat. Inside the lunch box, a whole red bear paw lay quietly.

"Mmm, it smells so good."

Tsunade held the lunch box and sniffed it deeply.

"Stop smelling it, Tsunade-san. Eat quickly! It won't taste as good when it's cold."

Seeing Tsunade looking so intoxicated but hesitant to move her chopsticks, Uchiha Chiba had no choice but to remind her.

Hearing Uchiha Chiba's reminder, Tsunade snapped back to reality, a little embarrassed. After all, her behavior had been quite strange, especially with others watching her.

But before she could think too much, the scent of the bear paw seduced her once again.

Unable to resist, Tsunade picked up a piece with her chopsticks and immediately put it into her mouth.

Seeing Tsunade tasting the food, Uchiha Chiba asked, "Is it delicious, Tsunade-sama?"

"Well, it's delicious! Rich in flavor, soft, and chewy. I've never tasted anything like this before." Tsunade looked surprised and immediately picked up another piece to continue eating.

Uchiha Chiba smiled.

Of course, it tasted good. To make the bear paws, he had made a pot of chicken, duck, and ham stock.

"As long as it tastes good, I'll leave now. Sister Tsunade, eat slowly."

After saying that, Uchiha Chiba turned to leave, but as he took a few steps, Tsunade called him back.

"Chiba, wait, um... I have something to trouble you with."

"What's the matter, Sister Tsunade?"

Uchiha Chiba turned around and saw Tsunade, who was showing a coy, little daughter-like attitude.

To be honest, he was surprised. When watching anime in his previous life, Tsunade had always been portrayed with a more straightforward personality.

But now, Tsunade's image had crumbled in his heart.

"Just... can you please come to my house to cook a meal?"

After saying this, Tsunade felt a little embarrassed. After all, they had only met yesterday, and though they had become siblings, she still felt that asking for such a favor was a bit excessive.

But there was nothing she could do about it. Who made Senju Nawaki so unreliable?

Time now shifts back to last night, during dinner, when Nawaki suddenly realized that he had forgotten to bring Uchiha Chiba's cooking to Uzumaki Mito.

For this, Nawaki could only blame Uchiha Chiba for making the food so delicious. There had been so many people at the table that a large pot of fish had been eaten in one go. And after the events that followed, he had completely forgotten about it. He only remembered it when he saw dinner on the table.

Although Uzumaki Mito didn't mention it later, Senju Nawaki found Tsunade because he felt guilty.

"Sister, can you do me a favor?"

"What's wrong? Did you make Kushina angry again?"

Tsunade knew her brother well. If he wasn't facing a problem he couldn't solve, he wouldn't come to her for help.

Nawaki quickly waved his hands. "No, no, how could I make Kushina angry? I just forgot to bring the food Chiba made for grandma. I want Chiba to come to our house and cook a meal so grandma can try it."

"Then why are you asking me? You can tell Chiba yourself," Tsunade said, confused.

Seeing that Tsunade was reluctant to help, Senju grew anxious. "It's different.

Although Chiba and I are classmates and friends, now, sister, you and Chiba are siblings.

In this way, your relationship is closer, sister. If you ask Chiba for help, it'll be hard for him to refuse, right?"

"Oh, so now you agree that I've recognized Chiba as my younger brother? Why have you changed your mind now?" Tsunade replied playfully.
