Yamato and the little girl, because they had been in culture tanks since they were young,
couldn't speak, couldn't express themselves, and couldn't even understand what was being said.
Yamanaka Kei, even using the Mind Transmission Body Technique, could only vaguely read a bit of emotional feedback from them.
He sensed that Yamato didn't want to leave the little girl's side for even a step.
Considering the Wood Release Bloodline Limit in their bodies, it really wasn't suitable for too many people to know about it at this stage.
After pondering for a moment, he had the leader of Root's second squad, Otou, summon Yakushi Nonou, who was taking a break and working part-time taking care of children at the Konoha Orphanage.
She had a gentle personality, was patient, had strong affinity, and had experience taking care of children.
If he didn't give this job to her, who else could he give it to?
"Kei-sama, Intelligence Team 'Priestess' reporting for duty."
Yakushi Nonou, as expected of a top spy known as the Walking Shrine Maiden, had perfect control over her emotions.
Even though every time she took a bath and saw the 'Just just just down' (tracking marks) on her thigh, she couldn't help but want to bite Yamanaka Kei to death,
her expression was extremely calm when they actually met.
Indifferent, distant, calm, restrained...
Her external image and temperament were no different from ordinary Root ninjas.
"With our relationship, there's no need to be so distant, right?"
Yamanaka Kei looked at Yakushi Nonou, who was in official mode, with a helpless expression.
"This subordinate doesn't seem to have met Kei-sama before."
"Alright, alright, you've cursed me back and forth in your heart countless times, there's no need to pretend you don't know me."
"My lord is overthinking it. This subordinate has absolute loyalty to Root, strictly adheres to the Root ninja management system, and would never insult a superior."
Yakushi Nonou lowered her head slightly, concealing the expression on her face that was about to crack.
Mind Transmission Body Technique again!
Calm down, calm down!
Quickly adjusting her state, she tried to empty her mind, not letting herself overthink.
In just a few seconds, Yakushi Nonou entered a state of complete joylessness, sadnesslessness, and thoughtlessness.
Root had a strict ninja management system.
If she were caught insulting a superior,
her end wouldn't be pretty.
"Relax, I really didn't use the Mind Transmission Body Technique."
Yamanaka Kei supported his forehead with his hand, inwardly cursing Danzo once again.
Look at what you've forced this girl to become!
"..."
Yakushi Nonou was silent for a moment, then tentatively raised her head, looking directly at the expression on Yamanaka Kei's face.
After a long while, her tense body relaxed slightly.
"!!! Did you just scold me again?"
"Kei-sama, please rest assured, your subordinate is only praising you for caring for your comrades and being considerate of your subordinates, a truly excellent ninja who has inherited the Will of Fire."
"You've really mastered the art of sarcasm."
Yamanaka Kei rolled his eyes unhappily and stopped beating around the bush with Yakushi Nonou.
He pointed to the little girl lying in the culture tank and Yamato, who was half-crouched beside the culture tank, inside the medical room, and then said.
"I'll give you a long-term mission: teach these two children to speak, write, refine Chakra, and some basic common sense, and take care of them by the way."
"Root's training method?"
"No, the way normal children are raised."
"...Yes."
Yakushi Nonou took a deep look at Yamanaka Kei before bowing to accept the mission.
Children who enter Root.
Can they still receive a normal education?
Also...
Speaking? Writing? Basic common sense?
Judging by their appearance, these two children should be five to six years old, but they can't speak yet?
"I'll give you the mission scroll later, and I'll also transfer your file from the Intelligence Team to be... temporarily my assistant."
Yamanaka Kei waved his hand and got up to walk out of the medical room.
Before completely taking over the control of everyone in Root, rushing to change Root's system would only cause a series of troubles.
If he wants to turn Root into the way he needs it to be, he can only take it slowly.
"Yes."
Yakushi Nonou bowed to accept the order.
An assistant?
If the superior isn't too strict, it doesn't seem too bad?
"Oh, right, those two, the boy is called Yamato, and the girl is called Xiao He."
"Yes."
————————————
Leaving the medical room.
Yamanaka Kei replaced the Shadow Clone that was on duty in Root and the Shadow Clone disguised as Danzo.
With a dizzy head, he returned home.
He had been busy for so long.
He hadn't closed his eyes for the past two days, so after wolfing down a dinner, he went to dreamland with the soft and fragrant Kushina in his arms.
When he woke up again, it was already noon the next day.
He stretched his back long and hard.
Yamanaka Kei squinted his eyes, looking at the snowflakes falling outside the window, and the lanterns and ribbons hanging in front of the doors of various households in the clan.
He suddenly came back to his senses.
Before he knew it, the New Year was almost here!
"Kushina-sama, Kei-sama's Genjutsu is so powerful! Six days can be spent in Genjutsu for six years, wouldn't that mean learning anything would be very fast?"
An unfamiliar little girl's voice came from outside the Bedroom gap.
"Well... no Jutsu is without its flaws, this probably has some limitations, but for this kind of professional matter, Shizune needs to ask Kei herself, I'm not very clear either."
Kushina patiently explained her understanding to Shizune.
Shizune is a Genin who graduated from the Ninja School in the same class as Yuhi Kurenai.
As soon as she graduated, Tsunade asked Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi for her.
She had been thrown by Tsunade to study at Konoha Hospital.
Now that Tsunade is receiving Genjutsu Treatment, she hasn't gone to Konoha Hospital for several days, so the worried little girl brought a fruit basket to visit.
The two continued their conversation in lowered voices.
Yamanaka Kei was now considering the feasibility of Shizune's idea just now.
Because he was used to using Genjutsu to deal with enemies and brainwash people, he had never really considered this aspect before.
But, it seems to work?
Although the cultivation in Genjutsu, because it is divorced from reality, the degree of control of various abilities by the person under the Jutsu completely needs to rely on the caster to simulate with their own experience and knowledge.
Moreover, after leaving the Genjutsu, the body and memory also need a period of time to familiarize and adapt.
But it can still greatly accelerate the learning progress of various abilities!
The only regret is.
For Yamanaka Kei himself, this thing not only needs to find someone or an animal to cooperate with the Jutsu, but also can only play a role in accelerating thinking.
After all, how can the Genjutsu constructed with his own knowledge and memory simulate something he has never mastered.
Even if it is forcibly simulated, it is probably just a superficial appearance.
Quickly sorting out the Jutsu ideas of this Genjutsu.
Yamanaka Kei was just about to get up and wash.
From outside the door, Shizune's gossip-filled voice came again.
"Kushina-sama, Tsunade-sama, are you, are you getting married?"
"Huh? Why do you ask?"
"I heard that nobles from the Daimyo Residence shave their eyebrows before marriage, as if symbolizing their determination to grow old together with their partner? Tsunade-sama..."
"Cough cough cough~!"
Hearing this, Yamanaka Kei hurriedly coughed loudly, attracting the attention of the two people outside the room.
What is all this nonsense!
Shizune, this little girl, could you dare to guess even more outrageously?
