56 BSWS CH-56 The Chunin Exams XXIV - Training Plans and Unexpected Surprise

The next day, just as she was about to leave home and go to Kakashi to ask for a favor, Sakura received an unexpected guest.

"Hi Sakura," Karin smiled as she greeted Sakura. Karin had transformed into a whole new person in the past few days Sakura had not seen her.

Gone was the timid Kunoichi look she had on before. Now she wore form-fitting pants, an undershirt, and a jacket, all in dark colors, which complemented nicely with her skin tone and hair. She had also finally traded the Kusagakure headband for a Konoha headband.

"Hi Karin, you look great!" Sakura said as she hugged Karin. She ushered Karin to her bedroom so that they could chat about what Karin had been up to since she last saw her.

Karin informed Sakura of everything that went on with her and the reformation of the Uzumaki Clan. However, it turned out that there was not much to tell.

After Karin had parted with Sakura, she had to undergo a brief mental examination by the T&I corps, just to ensure that she was not being manipulated or influenced, through Genjutsu or Threats, to infiltrate Konoha with unsavory intentions.

Once she was given the all-clear, she and Naruto had to fill a ton of paperwork for her migration to Konoha and the establishment of the Uzumaki clan as an official clan associated with Konoha. She also said that Sakura was added as a close ally to the clan who would enjoy a certain status in the clan.

Once that was done, Karin had to undergo a brief series of tests and evaluations to gauge her ability as a Kunoichi. Her final evaluation was that of a mid-level Genin, with special evaluation for certain circumstances being as high as low Jonin, thanks to her bloodline and special abilities.

Once that was done, she and Naruto were given access to Naruto's parents' home, which Naruto unlocked with his bloodline verification. The area around Naruto's parents' home, along with all buildings and structures in the area, was assigned to Uzumaki Clan.

In future, if they wanted to expand more then they would have to buy more land from Konoha. They also received access to a certain Uzumaki Temple that was built on the outskirts of Konoha. However, it was a dilapidated structure that didn't hold much appeal to Karin and Naruto so they explore it.

Sakura knew the importance of the temple, but she didn't tell Karin at the moment as it was of no use.

Karin then told Sakura of the inheritances they received from Konoha. Lord Third had made sure that they were provided with a copy of all Fuinjutsu, Ninjutsu, and Kenjutsu techniques contributed to Konoha by Mito and Kushina.

They also received the majority of the savings Kushina and Minato had made with Konoha. Given that they had majorly participated in extremely high-ranking missions, their savings had been significant.

The only thing they didn't receive was Minato's Flying Thunder God, but they did receive a prototype version that Mito Uzumaki had worked on with Tobirama Senju before he went on to further develop it on his own and create the first complete Flying Thunder God.

However, as it turned out, they didn't have to worry about it. When Karin and Naruto later checked their new home, they found a secret sealed underground room, protected by the same blood seal as before.

Once Naruto unlocked it, they uncovered a stash of storage scrolls. Within the scrolls, there were books on Fuinjutsu, Uzumaki Hidden techniques, and other secret knowledge prepared by Minato and Kushina for contingencies.

It also contained Minato's personal unique techniques, including his version of Flying Thunder God, and a stash of his personalized Flying Thunder God Kunai.

Naruto had been very emotional on seeing all these and had vowed that he will master them all, no matter how long it took. He also asked Karin to learn along with him as she was an Uzumaki and deserved to learn Kushina's techniques.

After that Naruto had become busy with the preliminaries and Karin had mostly stayed at their new home, preparing it for living, and spent her time learning about her Uzumaki heritage.

She had also stored all of the inheritances they had received from Konoha in the same place hidden underground room, where Kushina and Minato had left their personal inheritances.

Sakura was pretty surprised to learn of all this. While she did think Karin and Naruto would receive stuff, this was practically winning the jackpot.

Simply based on the Uzumaki Authentic Fuinjutsu, given that Karin and Naruto are able to successfully learn it, they could become powerhouses directly. Most Uzumaki didn't even require Ninjutsu, they could dominate a battlefield simply based on the hidden bloodline techniques and their Fuinjutsu.

Not to mention, they had received inheritances of Minato, Kushina, and Mito, three of the greatest Fuinjutsu masters to ever live, two of them being the Jinchuriki of Kurama himself and one of them has made an entire career from a single Fuinjutsu technique he remade.

She was especially shocked to hear about Minato and Kushina's hidden stash, which included Kushina's best Fuinjutsu techniques and Minato's Flying Thunder God.

Even if Konoha had not given them anything, Naruto and Karin would be able to revive the glory of the Uzumaki just based on these two treasures.

Now that the new Uzumaki clan had money, status, and hidden knowledge, no one could stop its rise to former glory, especially if she gave them a hand.

Sakura asked Karin if she could also come to learn Fuinjutsu along with them sometimes. Karin was more than happy to comply, even going as far as to say that even if Hokage had not made it so, Sakura would still enjoy the same level of privilege she and Naruto had in the clan.

Karin then asked about Sakura's plans for the coming month while congratulating her on getting to the finals of the Chunin Exams.

Sakura shared her training plans with Karin. Sakura had made plans to majorly spend her time in physical training and learning medical techniques from the medical corps in Konoha Hospital.

For the second part of that training plan, she had been planning to ask help from Kakashi to introduce her to the proper authorities in the medical corps.

However, Karin surprised her with another unexpected news.

"You have what?" Sakura asked in a completely surprised tone.

"I have direct access to Konoha Hospital's most experienced professionals, including the Chief of the Medical Corps. Apparently, they were extremely impressed by the healing abilities of my bloodline and want to train me into a Medical Genius on the level of Sannin Tsunade Senju."

"If you want to learn Medical Techniques, you can just accompany me whenever I go to learn from them, or I could just come and pick you up," Karin said.

"Sure. That would be great." Sakura agreed. If Karin had access to the highest Medical Professionals, it would be much better than the beginner's access Kakashi could get her.

One has to know that Medical Corps was extremely valued, the chief professionals even more so. Even Hokage would have informed them of his visit in advance so that it doesn't disturb their busy schedule.

If Karin was learning from such professionals, then Sakura would be gaining quick access to advanced medical knowledge.
