Hearing this, Kushina was so proud that it seemed her tail was about to stick up to the sky.
She thought to herself, "That's right! I'm currently the number one in sealing technique in the entire ninja world. Hohoho!"
"So, what do you want from me? There must be something, right?"
Kushina sat down opposite Uchiha Gen and asked.
Seeing Tsunade back down, Kushina proudly lifted her chin and thought, "You little thing, trying to fight me. Got caught by your weak point, huh?"
"So, I was thinking if you could teach Uchiha Gen sealing technique. What do you think?"
"Cough cough!"
Hearing this, Tsunade cleared her throat and said seriously, "Well, this kid has been researching a kind of Medical Tag lately. He wants to turn the Mystical Palm Technique into a talisman similar to an Explosive Tag, so that it can be easily activated and used by the injured to treat themselves when needed."
Meanwhile, the Nine-Tailed Fox in Kushina's sealed space also noticed this conversation.
"So, that's why I thought of you, Kushina."
"You know, you're the best in sealing technique in the whole of Konoha and even the entire ninja world right now."
Hearing Tsunade's words and feeling Kushina's smugness, the Nine-Tailed Fox muttered disdainfully, "This red-haired girl is the number one in sealing technique in the ninja world? How backward must the ninja world be now? Tsk!"
Then, its attention fell on Uchiha Gen.
It wondered in confusion, "What on earth is the origin of this little boy from the Uchiha clan? I feel like there's a warm yet terrifying power on him, as if it could cause Suppression to me."
However, the Uchiha clan doesn't have much heritage in sealing technique, and he currently lacks knowledge in this area. His research has hit a dead end.
But the next moment, it took back its attention, as if everything just now was an illusion.
But the Nine-Tailed Fox knew it wasn't an illusion: "It saw me. It really saw me! What kind of monster is this kid?"
Outside, Uchiha Gen withdrew his spiritual force, and a slight smile appeared on his lips. He thought, "The Nine-Tailed Fox? It's quite interesting. I should get some of its Chakra for research if I have a chance."
He was very interested in the essence of the tailed beast's Chakra.
He was interested in the tailed beast's ability to transform energy into a physical form.
He was interested in the tailed beast's ability to develop a physical body from Chakra energy.
He was even more interested in the tailed beast's ability to absorb natural energy and convert it into an endless supply of Chakra.
Tailed beasts don't synthesize Chakra by combining so - called cell energy and spiritual force like humans do!
To some extent, they have an infinite supply of Chakra.
These mysteries deeply intrigued Uchiha Gen.
He thought that if he could thoroughly research these things, he would be close to transcending the mortal realm, achieving the extraordinary, and attaining immortality.
By then, the upper limit of the Chakra system would no longer be able to restrict him.
At this moment, the sealed Nine - Tailed Fox suddenly felt a cold shiver, as if something bad was about to befall it.
Moreover, it felt that if it wasn't mistaken, the source should be the Uchiha kid outside.
"No! I have to hide well!"
With this thought in mind, the Nine-Tailed Fox hid deep within the seal, not allowing even a trace of its Chakra to leak out.
"Huh?"
Naturally, these changes didn't escape the notice of Kushina, the jinchuriki.
The state of the Nine-Tailed Fox left her confused. "What's going on with the Nine-Tailed Fox? Why has it become so obedient? It seems to be afraid of something. How strange!"
However, this was a good thing for her.
If the Nine-Tailed Fox didn't cause trouble, her pressure would be greatly reduced, and she would feel much more relaxed.
Kushina glanced at Uchiha Gen and then told Tsunade, "Sure! I'll take on the task of teaching Uchiha Gen the sealing technique. I guarantee he'll learn it."
Kushina thumped her chest with confidence.
"Hehe! Then I'll leave it to you!"
Tsunade squinted and smiled. She was already looking forward to the scene where Kushina would be shocked by Uchiha Gen's monstrous comprehension.
It was bound to be very interesting.
That day, Uchiha Gen stayed at Kushina's place and began learning sealing technique from her.
Meanwhile, Tsunade went back to the Ninja Hospital to slack off.

"How is it possible to learn so quickly and master it so well?"
Kushina had taught Uchiha Gen more than a dozen sealing techniques, and Uchiha Gen picked up each one with astonishing speed and mastered it to perfection in no time.
In fact, he had mastered each one better than she had.
She started to question her own existence.
"Are you just here to mess with me, right?"
"You must have learned these sealing techniques before, right?"
Kushina stared at Uchiha Gen angrily and questioned him.
Otherwise, how could someone be so freakishly talented, learning and mastering them to such an extent all at once?
Even geniuses aren't that genius.
"Really not!"
Uchiha Gen shrugged helplessly and explained while pinching the fingertip universe (a strange gesture of his), "I just have a little bit stronger comprehension. If I had really learned them before, why would I come here specially to ask for your teaching? For what?"
"Is it because you think I'm pretty?"
Hearing this, Kushina blushed instantly. She reached out and tapped Uchiha Gen's head shyly and said, "Don't talk nonsense. You're only three years old! Even if you say so, it's still hard to believe. Are you sure you haven't learned them before?"
"Really not!"
Uchiha Gen shook his head firmly. "I learned them all thanks to my talent."
"Is that so?"
Kushina began to believe him a little. Then she squinted and said, "Now I suspect that Tsunade knew this and deliberately sent you here to poke fun at me!"
"I wondered why she was so enthusiastic earlier. And she had a gloating look on her face when she left. So she was waiting to see me make a fool of myself. How unfair!"
What a despicable scoundrel! His conscience is extremely bad!

"Huh?"
Just then, the Nine-Tailed Fox sensed that Uchiha Gen's gaze was actually directed at her. It seemed that he had caught sight of her, and their eyes met.
"He seems to have awakened his //Sharingan//Sharingan[/b]! How old is he?"
"Is this //pupil power//pupil power[/b] real? It's so strong! And why doesn't he have that sinister aura like other Uchiha members? Is he a mutant?"
"Humph!"
"Moreover, what on earth is this kid's //spiritual force//spiritual force[/b]? It's incredibly strong!"
Others couldn't sense it because the kid had used a special method to conceal and suppress it.
But it couldn't fool the Nine-Tailed Fox.
As she spoke, she glanced at the huge //Scroll of Seals//Scroll of Seals[/b] on Uchiha Gen's back. She thought to herself, "Isn't this the //Scroll of Seals//Scroll of Seals[/b] that Grandma Mito once gave me? I remember it's full of books about //sealing technique//sealing technique[/b], right?"
She was a bit puzzled as to why Tsunade had given these things to Uchiha Gen.
