The kunoichi snatched up the document and ran her eyes over the headline, barely able to keep from shouting in surprise as she realized that this was what the lazy smartass wanted.
- Application for first degree iryonin, candidate - Ryo Nara, supervisor - Hishi Hyuga," she read slowly.
- Passed and certified by a committee of two second-degree iryonins and one first-degree iryonin," Nara grinned, "and according to these documents, the nephew is already a first-degree iryonin, although it takes a couple more healed people with the appropriate diagnosis to confirm the qualifications, but that's in process.

- What's that got to do with registration," his wife said, "once word of this gets out, the clan's influence in Konoha will be greatly increased, not to mention the alliance, and we'll have everyone the Senju and Hyuga have wrapped up with us!
