Chapter 51

Tow months later, Akira's setting in front of the village chief, he is an old man in his sixties with a wrinkled face and white hair.

Besides him is his daughter, from her observations, she seems to be in her thirties, a mother with a good look for a villager, her eyes are brown the same as her hair. The latter reached her upper back just centimeters below her neck.

" Master Rio, can you please consider our offer? "

Worry and hope is visible on their face, as the old man asked her, begging her to accept.

Akira's demeanor remained collected and calm, it was not the first time she met such a situation in her travel as a wandering doctor, but her fame have grown as a small genius when it came to the medical field among the other civilian doctors.

It all began when she figured out the essence of the medical art that they are using.

To put it in simple words, they only focus on the physical energy that even a civilian has within him, that physical energy goes through a cycle through the blood constituting meridians that go through all the organs making a total of twelve meridians.

The organs are one of the things that help propel the cycle and they see them as different attributes, namely fire, water, earth, wood, and gold, each is suppressed by one and nourishes another one, coupled with the fact that the body has acupunctures that are in some place the same as the chakra acupuncture ls and in other completely different.

Akira wasn't surprised that the shinobi will not care too much about it even the old doctors have in fact reached the limits of understanding for a very simple reason.

They didn't truly understand what they were doing, the acupuncture that they used was capable of manipulating the physical energy of the patient but it was limited and they weren't able to understand why.

Akira didn't have that problem thanks to the pure world sight.

Basically, the meridians are simply the blood circles related to a certain organ, but acupunctures are special places where a nerve that she calls the control nerve exists.

Akira had made sure of its existence thanks to several bandits that were presumably dead.

That control nerve has the role of a sensor, it just sends information to the organ, and the organ chooses to react.

The right way to use their medicine is to provoke several signals through physical energy that will cause the body to heal itself.

And now, Akira is considered a genius because of her deep understanding of the control nerves.

But Akira had a deeper plan behind that.

She didn't just travel in the land of fire but also come quite close to some of the villages in Konoha.

And the current village is 45 minutes away from Konoha with her max speed and someone's begging her to stay, it could be said the ideal location with the ideal situation so far.

She also stumbled upon one of the root ninjas without memories of her, enabling a transfer of information about the current situation.

From several clues, she knew that first, the white fang isn't in Konoha, same for Jiraya the toad sage and the slug princess Tsunade. Second, the Uchiha seems to have a slightly worst reputation than before, and lastly, the higher-ups are the same.

With this amount of information, Akira had a rough to take the forbidden scroll but first, she needs to settle the matter of the village and find a good situation to have a Sharingan.

After all, someone needs to take the blame for her next actions.

" Village chief, Miss Hana, the matter is more complicated than you think. Your granddaughter's sickness isn't a simple lung problem if I want to heal her, I might need six months constantly looking after her. In fact, passing more than a year isn't impossible. I honestly suggest that you send a request to Konoha Shinobi for that. I can even make a prescription for her that will help her have a normal life but your request is..."

Akira, while maintaining her disguise as Rio, an 18 years old doctor, earnestly advised them while knowing that they simply don't have the money for that, giving secret glances to the breast and waist of Hana, though the village chief didn't catch it, Hana sensed it.

The village chief and his daughter can't afford it, the money they have is for the time bandits come so they send a request for help.

His daughter's husband died long ago and now that his granddaughter's sick, he hoped for her to accept.

" Even if I stayed, I might not have enough for a meal and other needs, and staying with you is just... You understand what I mean. "

Akira followed her act, while she could accept staying because it's beneficial for her, it would be less suspicious if she stayed while asking for hidden benefits.

Hana had a hesitant look on her face, glancing at her father and seeing his difficult look, she bit her lower lip and kowtowed for her.

" Please Master Rio, please stay. " She added, the grandfather didn't hesitate much and followed her.

While Akira was asking them to rise and stop with a problematic expression, Hana took advantage of the time her father was kowtowing before sneakily rising, sneaking her hands on a part of the kimono and showing a part of her right breast and her white neck.

" Master Rio, please consider, we will take care of all your needs. "

She added while blushing.

Akira made a gulping sound before accepting politely.
