Naruto: Dual-Pupil Uchiha

Cursed Seal Technique?

There was a hint of surprise in Hikari's eyes. Actually, when he first got the Scroll of Seals, Genya had mentioned this.

However,

At that time, her teacher, Toshi, was busy at the hospital, so Genya temporarily set it aside.

Now, unexpectedly, the matter was brought up again!

"Genya-sama, should I ask Toshi-sensei about this first? Then you can meet him later?" Hikari said, though still a bit shocked, she added the suggestion.

She wanted to take on the responsibility for this matter.

"No need. I'll talk to him myself," Genya shook his head. He wanted to speak to Toshi personally. If possible, he hoped to pull Toshi to his side.

"I understand. I'll go find Toshi-sensei as soon as I return to the hospital," Hikari nodded.

He wanted to uncover the secret of the cursed seal. This could help him and even others in the future!

Today, Genya didn't return to the Police Force of the Merchant Association but instead headed to the hospital!

Because the Uchiha Hospital offered better welfare for commoners, many people from Konoha now came specifically to get treated there.

Of course, Genya also offered discounts so that everyone could afford treatment.

As a result,

The hospital was now crowded with patients. When they saw Genya, they would greet him warmly!

They had developed a stronger sense of affection for the Uchiha clan, especially the Merchant Association.

This was all thanks to Genya's hard work, exchanging tangible benefits for their trust.

Genya responded warmly and then went back to his office.

In the office, he felt the fluctuations in space. The Flying Thunder God Technique was something he still hadn't mastered completely. Occasionally, during his practice, he could manage a single jump!

His understanding of space wasn't perfect yet.

However, he could feel the mysterious nature of the Flying Thunder God Technique. It wouldn't be long before he could completely master it!

Knock, knock, knock.

Suddenly, there was the sound of someone knocking on the door!

Genya opened his eyes and gestured for them to enter. He knew the person he had been waiting for had arrived!

Toshi walked in first, followed by Hikari!

Clearly, Hikari had already shared some of the details with her teacher, so Toshi now appeared more serious than usual.

You should know, this old man usually smiles all the time, and it's rare to see him with such a serious expression!

"Genya-kun, what is it that you want to discuss with me? You even had Hikari notify me!" Toshi sat down. Although his expression was serious, his eyes looking at Genya were very gentle! 

No matter what, he felt that Genya was a good person, which he could tell just from the hospital he opened!

Clearly,

This hospital was much more caring than the other two, making it affordable for many common people to see a doctor without being forced to choose between treatment and other troubles! 

For this reason!

He had recently taken on a few disciples to pass on his medical skills! 

Of course, those disciples' skills could never compare to that of his genius apprentice. Right now, Hikari's abilities in medical ninjutsu were almost surpassing this old man's, especially the green chakra within Hikari's body. It seemed to be naturally meant for medical ninjutsu! 

It was a pity,

Hikari didn't treat medical ninjutsu as her main focus. Otherwise... her future would be limitless!

"Toshi-san, it's nothing big!" Genya smiled gently as he looked at Toshi, his face carrying a warm expression. "Come, let's have some tea first!"

He began being polite, addressing Toshi as an equal.

Toshi raised an eyebrow, feeling like Genya had some ulterior motive. He had a bad premonition and thought: "Genya-kun, if you have something to say, just say it directly, no need to beat around the bush!"

As he said this, he was a little thirsty, so he reached for his tea.

"Ahem, it's not a big deal. I just heard that you've been researching cursed seals, so I wanted you to look into this technique!" Genya said, still with great interest, watching Toshi closely.

Toshi paused his tea-drinking action! 

He stopped and put the tea aside!

He guessed it—Genya wasn't being honest! 

After thinking for a moment, he asked cautiously: "What cursed seal technique?"

Hearing Toshi's question, Genya quickly took out a scroll he had prepared in advance: "It's this!"

The scroll contained the cursed seal techniques recorded in the Scroll of Seals.

Toshi was stunned for a moment, then picked up the scroll and started to read it. His eyes widened with shock. "Is this... the cursed seal technique? I thought it was recorded in the Scroll of Seals? Genya-kun, how did you get this?"

He had long heard of a forbidden technique, the cursed seal technique!

He never expected to see it again, and even more surprisingly, it was recorded so thoroughly!

It is said that this technique was already included in the Scroll of Seals during the time of the First Hokage. He had once searched for any related ninjutsu or books but found nothing. 

Unexpectedly, now that he no longer searched for this cursed seal technique, it had appeared!

"Even if all the ninjutsu in this world are declared forbidden, there will always be one or two that remain," Genya said, sipping his tea, but his eyes were focused on observing the changes in Toshi's expression. "I don't have much understanding of this cursed seal technique, so I wanted you, Toshi-san, to help me study it!"

Genya could clearly see that Toshi's eyes nearly sparkled when he saw this cursed seal technique. But, the light in his eyes was quickly suppressed.

"Ahem... this cursed seal technique is a forbidden jutsu. Besides, I've been busy treating patients," Toshi reluctantly pushed the scroll that recorded the cursed seal technique back toward Genya, rejecting his request firmly.

However, the reluctance in his eyes was obvious.

Genya tried to grab the scroll to play with it, but Toshi gripped it tightly.

"Heh, Toshi-san, you're researching this cursed seal technique to save lives!" Genya smiled, trying to make it easier for Toshi. "You've treated injuries for the branch members of the Hyuga clan before, right? The Caged Bird seal, once activated, makes life worse than death. I have a friend who is from the Hyuga branch family, and he has suffered a lot. He's often tortured by the Caged Bird seal, living in constant pain."

"The Caged Bird seal is indeed a cruel practice," Toshi said, recalling the time he treated Neji's mother's injuries. He was filled with anger. The Hyuga branch family had it so bad!

"The Hyuga branch family members are branded with the Caged Bird seal when they're young. Once they wake up and realize it, they can't resist. They're forced to serve the main family for generations, suffering abuse and having their lives controlled by the main family's whims!" Genya continued, seeing that Toshi was starting to feel moved. 

"Once you've studied the cursed seal technique, you'll be able to break the chains of the Hyuga branch family. They'll be able to escape the birdcage!"

Hearing this, Toshi felt a surge of emotion. He looked again at the scroll on the table.

After a long silence, he picked up the tea on the table and drank it in one gulp!

His gaze landed on Genya, and he nodded seriously. "Okay, I agree. I'll study the cursed seal technique!"
