Chapter 180: Natsu is Sick?
"Okay."
Natsu held the bowl with her small hands, looking pitifully obedient and at Kiyoshi's mercy.
The others simply assumed Natsu was anxious to be cured.
Before long, Kiyoshi returned to his tent. Natsu followed with her eyes lowered.
Clang!
The tent flap fell, striking the outer fabric.
Tetsu sighed.
He didn't know how Natsu had gotten sick.
"Don't be sad."
Asuma patted Tetsu's shoulder. From his observations, Tetsu was probably a simp.
It was strange, why were there so many simps?
Asuma marveled inwardly.
"Yeah."
Tetsu didn't dare to refute the young master's words, nodding repeatedly.
"When did they get so close?" Tekka wondered inwardly.
It seemed Natsu had only come to find Kiyoshi a few times.
Why did it look like they were flirting and having an affair just now?
Was it really just for treatment?
Tekka shook his head. Most of the men in Uchiha clan were handsome, so it was normal to be popular.
Speaking of which, why didn't this kind of thing happen to him?
The expressions of several people varied, each thinking about their own concerns.
Kurenai looked in that direction, slightly narrowing her red eyes.
She instinctively sensed that something was wrong, along with a strong sense of crisis.
Having not seen her for too long, Kurenai noticed that Natsu had become much more beautiful.
If she had to make an analogy, the previous Natsu was like a flower bud.
Now, the flower bud had blossomed under the watering of rain.
Even with her eyes lowered, she had a kind of inner charm.
"Could it be that the Gentle Fist has this effect?"
Kurenai muttered, only able to categorize it as such.
Inside the tent
As soon as Natsu entered, she couldn't wait to say.
"Kiyoshi-kun, I... please check if I have..."
Natsu voiced her worries.
If this matter were to be exposed, the feudal and rigid Hyuga clan would be furious.
For the Hyuga clan, which valued etiquette, this was an utter humiliation and would surely be subjected to unspeakable punishment.
Her situation was precarious. Ginka would also throw her out at the first opportunity to disclaim any relationship.
"Come here." Kiyoshi beckoned.
Hearing this, Natsu trotted a few steps closer.
Kiyoshi placed his hand on Natsu's abdomen, used his chakra to sense for a moment, and shook his head.
"Don't worry, I am a person of restraint." Kiyoshi said.
A skilled ninja can attach a layer of chakra to some local areas.
With Kiyoshi's skills, he can now do this. Unlike other ninjas who pursue the thickness and strength of chakra, Kiyoshi wants chakra that is transparent and thin.
So, it is easy to attach the chakra to his weapon or body and it can have a wonderful effect.
Natsu didn't understand what Kiyoshi was saying, but she breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Kiyoshi say it was okay.
"Today, we should rest for a while longer. Teach me all the Gentle Fist you know." Kiyoshi said.
"...Yes."
Natsu hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
"But I only know some of it now, and I need to keep learning more."
She didn't plan to give Kiyoshi everything she knew all at once, but rather a steady stream.
If Kiyoshi wanted the Gentle Fist, he would have to keep learning it through her.
This would also ensure that her value would not decrease.
"Of course, it doesn't matter."
The corners of Kiyoshi s mouth turned up.
Before fully learning, he can continue to improve his pupil power a little.
This would help in learning the upcoming Gentle Fist.
…
"So that's how it is, this is Gentle Fist."
Kiyoshi listened to the prompt, lost in thought.
"You have acquired the trait: [Gentle Fist Beginner (Blue)]."
[Gentle Fist Beginner (Blue)]
[Requirement: Come into contact with the Gentle Fist.]
[Progress: Completed]
[Effect: You know the power of 'Gentle', and your insight increases by 40% on the original basis.]
[Note: Can be upgraded.]
It seems that because Gentle Fist is an absolutely secret art of the Hyuga clan, just getting into contact with it net him a blue Trait.
Kiyoshi covered his eyes, able to feel a stream of blood and energy filling his eyeballs.
Theu constantly rotated in his eyeballs, like a vortex.
The whites of Kiyoshi's eyes became terrifyingly bloodshot, as if his entire eyeball had turned scarlet.
After a while, the movement subsided.
His eyes turned back to normal, the only trace left was Kiyoshi's pupils.
His pupils looked a little deeper and more scarlet than other Uchihas.
While Kiyoshi was familiarizing himself with the improved insight, Natsu carefully got up.
"Kiyoshi-kun, are you not feeling well?"
"No."
Kiyoshi turned around, his scarlet eyes looking at Natsu.
Natsu felt a little creeped by looking at him.
She said, "Then I'll go first."
"Well... if there is danger in the battle later, remember to lean towards me." Kiyoshi opened his mouth.
It would be a pity to lose such an excellent provider of pupil power, especially since subsequent traits related to the Hyuga clan might appear.
Even in this world, there are many ways to revive others. But none of them are things that Kiyoshi can currently contact.
"I understand, Kiyoshi-kun."
Natsu's original sad thoughts were replaced by strong joy.
It seems that Kiyoshi is definitely not a heartless person.
It is often said that there is only one fastest way to a woman's heart.
The simple Natsu had already begun to brainwash herself for Kiyoshi, trying to find rights his behavior.
She wanted to convince herself that Kiyoshi was not completely devoid of morality.
"Go."
Kiyoshi waved his hand, watching Natsu leave his tent.
"If I concentrate, I can now see every cell of my body."
Kiyoshi glanced at the cells on his body, and even the dust in the air.
If his vision continues to improve, he will basically obtain the ability of the Byakugan in disguise.
"An ordinary Hyuga clansman is unable to use top level taijutsu like Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack due to the amount of chakra, but I should be able to make up for this."
Kiyoshi recalled the Gentle Fist taught by Natsu, and discovered that there was much potential in it.
The chakra fist released by Kaguya's main body using Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack was so big.
How big will the chakra fist be if Kiyoshi uses such a technique in the Susanoo state?
…
"Natsu, Orochimaru-sama informed us that we should go back."
Tetsu happened to meet Natsu who had just walked out of Kiyoshi's tent.
Seeing that Natsu's complexion was much rosier, as if she had just been nourished, even if Tetsu thought that he didn't get along well with Kiyoshi, he had to admire Kiyoshi's medical skills at this moment, which were truly miraculous.
"I'll go call Kiyoshi-kun."
Natsu was stunned, thinking of Kiyoshi.
"Then let's go."
Kiyoshi's voice came from the tent.
Without sensing, but purely by hearing, Kiyoshi could hear the conversation between the two.
