"Clan leader, the training methods Reiki left behind last time have significantly improved everyone's skills."
"Perhaps we could ask Reiki to help purchase some medicine and even pay him to conduct special training with us."
"I believe he's participating in the current special training for medical ninjas, and the results have been impressive."
After investigating for several days, Uchiha Natsume could no longer hold back and went straight to Uchiha Fugaku.
Watching others grow stronger was something he couldn't easily ignore.
"Alright," Fugaku replied calmly, "but the family won't fund this. Those who wish to participate should cover their own costs. The family will simply provide a platform for training."
"Clan leader, can we join as well?" others asked eagerly. "Yes, we want to join too. I heard the body-strengthening potion Tsunade offers can greatly enhance physical capabilities."
"I'm willing to pay for it. Can the family help acquire the medicine?"
The Uchiha clan meeting had initially focused on the suppression of the Uchiha by Konoha's higher-ups, but Natsume's suggestion immediately captivated the room. After all, the Uchiha clan deeply valued strength; all other concerns became secondary when strength was at stake.
"You also want to participate?" Fugaku raised an eyebrow. "Very well. Natsume, I'm putting you in charge. Ensure this project succeeds—I want to see our clan's strength surge in a short period."
"Understood, Patriarch!" Natsume replied resolutely. "Anyone interested in special training, please register with me. Tomorrow, I'll reach out to Tsunade and Reiki to collaborate on a training plan. As for the medicine costs, everyone will need to cover them."
Natsume began making arrangements with swift precision. Thoughts about Konoha's suppression quickly faded; improving strength was now the main focus. Fugaku left the meeting, allowing Natsume to take charge. He then decided to pay a visit to Tsunade.
Upon arriving at her residence, he was greeted with a smile. "Minister Fugaku, how can I help you?"
"Tsunade-sama," Fugaku began, "I'd like to ask if our clan could purchase some potions directly. Is that possible?"
"Of course. How much do you need? Let me know, and I'll have an answer for you by tomorrow. I'll even give you a discount."
Tsunade had noticed something extraordinary recently. Reiki's unique bloodline ability was not only potent but also allowed him to create highly effective potions quickly, given the right ingredients. Although Tsunade often presented the potions as a collaborative effort, this was to protect Reiki rather than overshadow him.
"We're planning special training for our clan, so we'll likely need a significant amount," Fugaku replied with a smile.
"Good," Tsunade nodded. "By the way, your clan has a good supply of medicinal ingredients, right? You could exchange some of those for potions."
"Understood. I'll prepare them," Fugaku said gratefully. "Thank you, Tsunade-sama."
With the support of these potions, Fugaku was confident that the Uchiha could bolster their strength rapidly. A stronger Uchiha clan could withstand pressure from Konoha's top brass. Fugaku left in high spirits, pleased at how this training initiative had solved multiple problems, at least temporarily keeping the clan's more militant members occupied.
After Fugaku departed, a shadowy figure appeared nearby, watching quietly.
"So, the Uchiha are involved now? Soon, other clans may follow," the figure muttered, casting a glance toward Tsunade's residence before knocking on her door.
Moments later, Tsunade opened the door. "Clan leader Hyuga Momori? What brings you here?"
"I'd like to speak with Reiki if he's available."
Tsunade invited him in, and Reiki soon joined them, curious about the unexpected visit.
"Reiki, Hyuga Clan Leader Momori wishes to speak with you," Tsunade said, giving him space as she went to sort through the medicinal supplies.
Momori looked at Reiki with a serious expression. "I'm willing to accept your previous proposal, but I ask that my clan members receive priority in treatment."
"Of course," Reiki nodded. "But the cost—I trust you're aware of it?"
Momori understood. The treatment for the Hyuga was complex, especially given their Byakugan, which often required additional care and secondary treatments. Unlike Uchiha, their unique abilities demanded more frequent attention.
"I'll inform my clan of the costs," Momori assured him, "but will you have enough time?"
"Yes, I'll make the time," Reiki responded confidently. "I'll provide you with a list of necessary ingredients and fees. If all is in order, I can begin treating one person each evening."
With that, Reiki handed a prepared list to Momori, feeling optimistic about the work ahead.
