The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 206 Kurama 8 Clouds

Konoha Village is a large ninja village formed by the union of many ninja clans.

From their founding to the present, some of the powerful families in the early days have gradually declined.

What started as an inconspicuous family has now grown into a large and numerous one.

There was once a clan whose skill in genjutsu was on par with the Uchiha.

This family is called the Kurama family.

However, it is different from the Uchiha clan, which is full of talented people and has a large population.

This once illustrious family declined rapidly after its peak due to its dwindling population.

Every member of the Kurama family born in modern times hopes to revive the family's former glory.

Every few generations, a member of the Kurama clan will produce someone with abilities that surpass those of their peers.

And Yakumo Kurama, born in this generation, possesses such talent.

But fate is a strange thing.

Although Yakumo Kurama has exceptional talent in illusion magic, he has been in poor health since childhood and is now over seven years old but has not yet enrolled in school.

Because she would feel palpitations and shortness of breath after practicing for a short time, and would faint from the discomfort.

The ancestral home of the Kurama clan.

"Dad, please let me go to school! I'm sure I can become a ninja!"

Yakumo Kurama has been pestering his parents for a long time because he can't enroll in school.

Kurama Murakumo sighed and said, "With your body, you simply can't refine much chakra. You should give up."

Although Yakumo Kurama is very handsome, he is a very stubborn person, upon hearing his father's words.

She retorted directly, "Father, I'm just not feeling well right now. I'll be fine once I'm better."

Yakumo's mother, Yuroko, feeling sorry for her daughter, chimed in from the side:

"Congyun, Lady Tsunade has returned to the village now, why don't we go and see her?"

"Her medical ninjutsu is so amazing, please ask her to take a look at Yakumo's body."

Kurama Murakumo hesitated for a moment. After all, the Kurama clan had declined and was now sparsely populated, with not even two Jonin left.

He had absolutely no connection with Tsunade.

Seeing her husband hesitate, Yu Luzi immediately understood his thoughts and comforted him:

"Now that things have come to this, what is there that you can't bring yourself to do? Even if it's not for Yakumo, you should at least think about the Kurama clan."

Kurama Murakumo thought it made sense. His daughter, Kurama Yakumo, had such a high talent for illusion techniques. If her body could be healed, it might be an opportunity for her to rise to power.

"Alright, I'll take Yakumo to see Lady Tsunade tomorrow."

Kurama Yakumo looked somewhat excited: "Father, will my illness be cured if Lady Tsunade intervenes?"

Seeing that his daughter had finally regained some hope, Kurama Murakumo didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm.

"Yes, you must have heard of Lady Tsunade. With her here, your health will definitely improve."

"She's been away from Konoha for many years, but now that she's back, I'll take you to Konoha Hospital tomorrow."

A glimmer of hope appeared in Yakumo Kurama's eyes: "That's great! Once I get better, I'm definitely going to become a ninja."

However, Yakumo did not notice that his parents exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with worry.

……

Kurama Murakumo quickly brought Kurama Yakumo to the hospital in Konoha.

Tsunade happened to be in the hospital when she met Kurama Murakumo.

"...That's how things are. I hope Lady Tsunade will take a look at Yakumo's condition."

Kurama Murakumo had visited Konoha Hospital several times before and was quite familiar with the place.

He was still holding some old inspection reports in his hand.

When Tsunade was a medical ninja, she was also very approachable.

Seeing the thin and frail Kurama Yakumo looking at her with hope, Tsunade did not refuse.

"Show me your previous test results."

Kurama Murakumo quickly handed all the receipts to Tsunade.

Tsunade took it and slowly began to read it.

The more they looked, the more their brows furrowed, and the hearts of Kurama Yakumo and his daughter sank deeper and deeper.

After a while, Tsunade put down the documents in her hand.

"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about it."

After Tsunade said those words, Kurama Yakumo's face turned even paler.

The thought that even the most skilled medical ninja had pronounced her sentence brought tears to Kurama Yakumo's eyes.

"Lady Tsunade, aren't you the most skilled medical ninja? Why can't you heal me?"

Kurama Murakumo immediately retorted angrily, "Yakumo! What nonsense are you spouting!"

He then immediately apologized to Tsunade: "I'm sorry, Lady Tsunade, the child was ignorant and I hope you won't take offense."

Tsunade wasn't about to hold a grudge against a child. She walked around the desk to Kurama Yakumo and asked softly:

"Can you tell me why you insist on becoming a ninja?"

"I will restore the glory of the Kurama clan and lead the family to prosperity!"

Kurama Yakumo's words were resounding, and the stubbornness in his eyes moved Tsunade.

Tsunade thought for a moment; she had just read the medical report.

Kurama Yakumo's physical problem is the continuous loss of vital energy.

It felt like there was a vampire leech clinging to her.

If the cause cannot be found, it will never be cured.

Even if Tsunade herself isn't there, the doctors at Konoha Hospital aren't fools.

Kurama Yakumo underwent a full-body examination, and no problems were found.

That means there's nothing wrong with your body.

Tsunade was not familiar with things on the level of the soul.

But there are also people in Konoha that we know.

Tsunade nodded slightly: "There is someone who might be able to find the cause of Yakumo's illness."

"As for whether or not to go to him, you can decide for yourselves."

Kurama Murakumo asked in confusion, "Who?"

Orochimaru.

Kurama Congyun's face turned pale, and there was a hint of fear on his face.

His clan, the Kurama clan, was once powerful and had some connections in Konoha.

He knew exactly what kind of person Orochimaru was.

Whether or not someone defectes is not the point.

Orochimaru, on the other hand, simply regards human life as worthless.

If Orochimaru can find the cause of Yakumo's illness, he will find Yakumo valuable.

What Kurama Murakumo should worry about is whether Yakumo will become Orochimaru's experimental subject.

When Tsunade saw Kurama Murakumo's face, she knew he was aware of Orochimaru's danger.

"I'm just telling you that this is a possibility, but how you actually do it is up to you to decide."

"If you've made up your mind, I can make an introduction on your behalf."

"I understand. Thank you, Lady Tsunade. We'll consider it."

Kurama Yakumo was very courteous.

Upon hearing this, Tsunade knew that Kurama Murakumo had backed out, and shook her head: "I couldn't help."

"It's already much better, so we'll take our leave then." Kurama Murakumo took his daughter's hand and left the hospital.

A thoughtful look appeared between Tsunade's brows. Although she had visited Orochimaru once before.

But those were all things Orochimaru showed her.

She didn't know the specifics.

Orochimaru is now affiliated with the Uchiha clan, and the sense of separation between him and Konoha is too strong.

If Orochimaru could interact more with the village, Konoha would be more stable.
