[Inside the Library]
Aoba calmly withdrew his hand from Kurama Yakumo's fair, smooth abdomen.
The chakra in his hand dissipated, and the expression on his face became slightly serious.
Kurama Yakumo's face turned red with embarrassment as she lowered the shirt she had lifted, covering up her flat and tender stomach.
She hid behind Yuhi Kurenai, not daring to look at Aoba.
She could still feel the lingering warmth of Aoba's fingertip on her belly.
At the same time, she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
'Fortunately, it was just a body check, and nothing strange.'
Yuhi Kurenai looked at the serious expression on Aoba's face, and her own face became a bit more solemn, "Can you tell if there's something wrong with Yakumo's body?"
Aoba pondered for a while and asked, "Does she possess some kind of powerful kekkei genkai?"
Yuhi Kurenai was stunned. She hadn't expected him to even be able to detect a kekkei genkai. She exchanged glances with Kurama Yakumo.
Using her eyes, she asked if Yakumo was willing to share her kekkei genkai information with this boy in front of them.
Kurama Yakumo stole a glance at Aoba, recalling his identity as Tsunade's disciple.
In Konoha, almost every girl who wanted to become a ninja grew up listening to stories about Tsunade.
After thinking for a while, she silently nodded her head.
Yuhi Kurenai began to explain to Aoba, "The Kurama clan was once a family with a genjutsu kekkei genkai, and their kekkei genkai was not inferior to the Uchiha clan. It can turn illusions into reality and manipulate the five senses of people. Just like how you didn't notice us earlier."
"It's just that very few people could inherit the kekkei genkai, so the clan gradually declined. In this generation, only Yakumo has awakened it."
"Turning illusions into reality? Manipulating the five senses?", Aoba revealed an expression of surprise, "That explains it…"
"You understand Yakumo's situation now?", This time, it was Yuhi Kurenai who was surprised.
She originally just wanted to borrow Aoba's help, to ask Tsunade-sama to check things out. She never thought this perverted brat would actually find a clue. She didn't expect he really might have discovered something.
"It's probably kekkei illness," Aoba nodded.
"Kekkei illness?", Yuhi Kurenai clearly hadn't heard of this term before. After all, it was indeed quite rare.
Even if someone encountered it, they rarely thought of it that way. Just like Gekko Hayate, who was almost coughing to death, and people still thought he was just physically weak.
Kurama Yakumo also looked curious; she had never heard of it either.
Aoba explained, "My teacher once said that as long as there's a kekkei genkai, there's a possibility of developing kekkei illness. She once treated a ninja with such a condition."
Mentioning Tsunade's theory first made what he said next more convincing.
"Yakumo's current situation, based on my examination, shows that her body doesn't have any major problems. It's most likely related to mental energy. Probably that her mental energy is too powerful and is overwhelming her body."
"This…", Seeing how confidently Aoba explained, Yuhi Kurenai couldn't help but believe him a bit. Plus, hearing that Tsunade had treated someone with the same illness…
She instantly felt relieved, and her entire body relaxed, "Then… can Yakumo's illness be cured?"
Kurama Yakumo also became a bit excited. Her biggest goal was to become a ninja, but due to her body's condition, she couldn't even attend the academy.
Aoba thought for a moment, raised his left hand, and extended two fingers, "In my opinion, there are two possible solutions."
"Two kinds?", The two women's eyes lit up.
Aoba retracted one finger and continued, "The first is to suppress this power, to seal away the overly strong mental energy. But if that's done, your kekkei genkai may also be sealed, and ordinary genjutsu will also be greatly weakened."
"No… I won't!", Kurama Yakumo refused aloud. Her expression was very firm, "My mom and dad wanted me to revive the Kurama clan. If I lose my kekkei genkai, I won't be able to fulfill their wish!"
"Please… please tell me the second method. I can do anything!"
Aoba was startled by the determination in her eyes and subconsciously asked, "Really anything?"
Kurama Yakumo, suddenly recalling certain things, blushed deeply, her previously determined expression melting away.
After hesitating, she finally responded with a mosquito-like "Mm."
"That's good. Because the second method is to have my teacher help personally. But at that time, your Kurama clan might have to spend some money."
Kurama Yakumo realized she had misunderstood again and shrank behind Yuhi Kurenai's back, her confidence faltering.
"Would Tsunade-sama really be willing to treat me?"
To her, Tsunade was like a legendary figure.
'As long as you pay enough, she'd love to have more patients like you,' Aoba mocked Tsunade inwardly, but didn't say it out loud.
After all, Tsunade had a reputation to maintain. If this got out, it would ruin the name of the Sannin.
Not that it had a great name anyway.
"I'll tell my teacher about your situation when I go back tomorrow. Whether she's willing to help or not, we'll see. But if she does, the fee might not be cheap, so you should be mentally prepared."
"Re… really?"
Kurama Yakumo's eyes lit up upon hearing that. She gave Aoba a ninety-degree bow, "Thank you so much!"
"I misunderstood you earlier. You're not a bad person, you're a good person!"
"…"
'Good grief, I haven't even done anything yet and I already got the 'Good Guy' card?'
Aoba waved his hand and said with a smile, "We're all from the same village, we're like family. No need to be so formal. Once your problem is solved, maybe we'll even become comrades fighting side by side."
Yuhi Kurenai, hearing this, couldn't help but look at Aoba a few more times. She realized that when this kid acted serious, he was kind of cute.
'Looks like there's a reason he can become Tsunade-sama's disciple.'
Besides excellent medical talent, he also had decent character.
She walked over to Aoba, "Originally, I thought you were just a lucky little pervert. Didn't expect I underestimated you."
Aoba was slightly stunned when he heard this, 'Have I shown any perverted behavior?'
'Even when checking the body, I was being super proper, okay?'
Yuhi Kurenai walked in front of Aoba, crouched down, and looked him in the eye.
"Do you need something?", Aoba had no idea what she was about to do.
"As thanks, I want to give you a gift," Yuhi Kurenai's lips curled into a mischievous smile.
"Gift?", Aoba looked puzzled.
"Let me think… what should I give?"
Yuhi Kurenai leaned in and placed a light kiss on Aoba's forehead.
