Kiyoshi closed the pop-up Trait panel.
Simply separating the coffee and milk counted as using the Poison Extraction Technique.
No wonder it was called the foundation of foundations.
The difficulty was likely above E-rank but not quite D-rank.
"You must read these books carefully when you get home."
Nonō Yakushi gave Kiyoshi a stack of books.
In addition to fine chakra control, sufficient knowledge is also essential for a medical ninja.
Kiyoshi carefully put all the books away.
This knowledge was indeed very necessary, and it also meant he had now established a connection with Nonō Yakushi.
Only then could subsequent developments occur, whether it be in Medical Ninjutsu or other enhancements...
Afterward, Nonō Yakushi explained some basic knowledge of Medical Ninjutsu to Kiyoshi, then sent him home.
"Understood."
Kiyoshi nodded.
He went downstairs and returned to the first floor of the Hidden Leaf Village Hospital.
The area was bustling with people, with individuals constantly coming and going.
On the first floor, Kiyoshi ran into an "acquaintance."
"Hazuki, this time you really went out of your way for me. I'll pay you back the money you fronted soon."
Yasuhiro Yamada had a cast on his arm and spoke to a beautiful woman standing in front of him.
"Yasuhiro, just be more careful next time."
Hazuki Uchiha waved her hand, indicating it was nothing.
The cost at the Hidden Leaf Village Hospital was indeed high, but she was also a ninja and had some income.
Kiyoshi narrowed his eyes, watching the scene from a distance.
In the Itachi Shinden novel, Hazuki Uchiha married an outsider and later gave birth to Izumi Uchiha.
That outsider eventually died during the Nine-Tails Attack, and Izumi returned to the Uchiha clan with Hazuki.
The Uchiha clan's attitude toward inter-clan marriage was neither supportive nor opposed.
"Hazuki, huh."
Kiyoshi looked at her meaningfully, then merged into the crowd, carrying his books.
Perhaps it was time for him to collect some interest.
After all, quite some time had passed since she had treated him with malice.
"What's wrong, Hazuki?"
Yasuhiro Yamada asked.
Hazuki Uchiha glanced around, the tear mole beneath her eye moving with her face, but she failed to find the source of the gaze she had just felt.
She was a Chunin. Though her strength wasn't formidable, she couldn't shake the feeling that someone was watching her.
"Never mind. I should go to the counter to get the medicine. The sooner I take it, the sooner you'll get better."
Hazuki Uchiha held a stack of white slips and told herself that she was probably just too stressed.
Yasuhiro Yamada nodded, a warm feeling flickering in his heart.
If she weren't an Uchiha, he would have proposed long ago.
After all, he was just a civilian ninja.
"What are you waiting for?"
Hazuki Uchiha, who had walked a few steps, turned to ask. Beneath her green ninja vest was black chainmail, which accentuated her voluptuous curves.
"I'm coming."
Yasuhiro Yamada followed Hazuki Uchiha.
He secretly resolved to work hard and make a name for himself so he could marry such a virtuous woman as Hazuki.

After several hours of training at home, Kiyoshi received an invitation.
"I am Inabi Uchiha. Fugaku-sama instructed me to inform you to attend tonight's assembly. The location is the Naka Shrine."
Inabi Uchiha said.
His hair color was different from the consistent black hair of the Uchiha lineage, leaning instead toward brown.
"I understand."
Kiyoshi was slightly surprised by the speed.
He had just passed the examination and received his ninja headband, and tomorrow he still needed to take a photo and register for his graduation certificate.
Yet, the Uchiha clan already knew of his graduation and was asking him to attend the "secret assembly" that only ninjas within the Uchiha clan could attend.
After delivering the notification, Inabi Uchiha offered Kiyoshi a few customary words of congratulations and then left.
Kiyoshi's house was located on the outskirts of the Uchiha compound, most Uchiha residences were not in this area.
Kiyoshi watched Inabi Uchiha leave.
Inabi Uchiha was a member of the Hidden Leaf Village Police Force, and in the original work, after Shisui Uchiha's death, he was responsible for constantly monitoring Itachi, whose actions were becoming increasingly suspicious.
He, along with Yashiro Uchiha and Tekka Uchiha, even went to question Itachi regarding Shisui's death.
After thinking for a moment, Kiyoshi closed the door.
He took off his top, revealing his muscular physique, and began his training.
*Crackling!*
The current of Lightning Release: Iron Armor continuously spread beneath his skin, increasing the toughness of his epidermis.
Initially, only extremely subtle currents were used to temper his limbs, torso, and neck.
Now, Kiyoshi could temper areas he couldn't reach before, directing the current towards them.
Those areas were the skin of his face and his scalp!
The original Lightning Release: Iron Armor did not include this part because the creator of the Ninjutsu had classified it as a D-rank Ninjutsu Taijutsu.
Therefore, it only accounted for the Genin-level ability to control and restrain chakra.
Any involvement with the meridian system in the head required extreme caution.
However, with his [Trait] panel and his considerable natural talent, Kiyoshi could now attempt to train this area.
If his eyelids weren't too thin, making it easy for the current to penetrate and paralyze his eyeballs, Kiyoshi would even train that area.
Because eye muscle is the fastest-moving muscle in the body, blinking only takes 100 to 150 milliseconds.
If someone were to attack the eyeball, he could directly use his eyelid for defense.
After all... the evolution of the Sharingan does not enhance the defense of the eyeball.
Even a member of the Ōtsutsuki clan, like Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki, can have his Rinnegan stabbed and blinded.
"Almost there..."
Kiyoshi muttered.
Dōjutsu power was the fastest way for him to grow stronger, rapidly synchronizing his physical quality with his inner strength, and comprehensively increasing his chakra quantity, chakra control, and other aspects.
This would facilitate the acquisition of more [Traits], and the [Traits] would, in turn, accelerate Kiyoshi's growth, creating a positive feedback loop.
The fastest method to strengthen his Dōjutsu power was to "savor beautiful things."
Rin Nohara's stimulation of his Dōjutsu power last time had resulted in his right eye awakening the Sharingan.
So this time it would be...

As night fell, Kiyoshi headed toward the Naka Shrine.
The shrine was located behind the rows of Uchiha houses. Its vermilion gate shimmered with mottled color under the moonlight, the wood inside already faded.
Clan members gathered one after another, arriving at the Naka Shrine.
To outsiders, this was merely the Uchiha clan's place for worshipping the gods, but there was a hidden chamber beneath it.
By the time Kiyoshi arrived, most people had already shown up.
Some clan members stared at Kiyoshi, they had already guessed that Kiyoshi had become a ninja.
Kiyoshi followed the clan members into the secret passage. The end of the passage was a spacious underground chamber, floored with tatami mats.
