Konoha: Unable to learn ninjutsu, they had to develop their own.

"Well, he barely managed to save his hand. Although his taijutsu will be affected in the future, fortunately he is from the Nara clan, so he is not so reliant on taijutsu. He can still be a ninja."

The three generations smiled.

"That's good."

Chiba breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that they were saved; otherwise, it would have been a waste of time.

As it turns out, the explosive tags in real life are really powerful. Not only could Nawaki not stop them, but even elite Chunin would suffer the same fate if hit, with severe injuries being the least of their worries.

"Hanfang told me that your technique is very useful. The successful rescue this time was all thanks to your ninjutsu. Since you are willing to hand it over to the village, the village cannot remain silent."

Seeing that Chiba hadn't made any requests, the Third Hokage brought up the subject himself, "What are your requests?"

“I’ve heard that you have a large collection of books. I would like to borrow a few.”

Chiba had been eyeing the three generations' collection of books for quite some time.

Previously, Kai had delivered the message in the hopes of getting in touch with the Third Generation and seeing if he could access the Third Generation's private library. Now that the opportunity has finally arrived, he can't let it slip by.

There's no need to hide this request.

Being sneaky only arouses suspicion.

The Third Hokage smiled broadly and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Alright, you can come to the Hokage Building to read books anytime from now on. However, you can also take a look at some ninjutsu scrolls. You may not have the talent for nature transformation, but you can eventually learn it by practicing."

"Yes, thank you for your guidance."

Chiba knew the Third Generation meant well, but...

My inability to use ninjutsu has nothing to do with talent, but rather it's due to the Bodhi seed in my head. I don't know what's going on with that thing, and I just hope I can find the answer in the future.

However, what the third generation said makes sense.

While one may not be able to learn nature transformation, many ninjutsu can be learned by analogy, and one is not necessarily limited to ninjutsu without elemental attributes.

In short, he's determined to read the books by the three generations of old men!

"If you encounter anything you don't understand while reading, you can come to my office and ask me. Don't be too polite. Although I'm old and my memory isn't good, I still know a little bit."

After that, the third generation said a few more words before leaving.

Chiba always felt...

It seems like the third generation is interested in me?

He thought about it and realized it made sense; he wasn't likely to encounter anyone with better talent in the next few years.

It's normal for the third generation to have their own ideas.

Chiba pondered for a moment, then shook his head, too lazy to think about the matter of the third generation.

Taking care of yourself is the most important thing.

"I've been lying down all day, so I'm not going to watch anything today. I'll get some rest, and after dinner I'll go for a run."

It's lunchtime now, so I can go to the hospital cafeteria for a free meal.

Many people greeted him on the street.

After making some inquiries, Chiba learned that she had become famous at the hospital.

He was on the operating table at the age of twelve, and he was the "chief surgeon." Many people in the hospital had already compared him to Tsunade in private, which made him feel somewhat ashamed.

After all, Tsunade knows the whole set, while I only know how to hold my hand steadily and use my sword accurately. So, I was able to succeed yesterday because my medical knowledge is still not very proficient, let alone medical ninjutsu, which I know nothing about.

Chiba explained several times, but eventually got tired of saying it again.

It seems...

Whether in a past life or in the ninja world, workplace gossip is inevitable.

He harbored resentment in his heart.

During the meal, Chiba happened to run into Kitayama Osamu and told him that she had asked for leave that day, which he readily agreed to.

After finishing his meal, he went out for a stroll and some exercise.

After lying in bed for half a day, I felt like I was rusting. Going out for exercise felt so refreshing!

Chapter 10: Should I consider working at a hospital?

After running all afternoon, Chiba felt like she had come back to life.

Not only that, he had a feeling that his energy was much stronger than before—

It's definitely not the effect of chakra depletion.

Bodhi seeds!

"nice one."

Chiba was secretly delighted.

After walking for a while, he looked up and was stunned for a moment.

Three heads peeked out from the top of the ninja academy wall.

Chiba looked up and met their gaze.

Naruto, Shikamaru, and Choji.

Chiba nodded.

Chiba was puzzled.

Naruto smiled.

Based on his appearance and tone of voice, he vaguely guessed Chiba's identity.

"Didn't they say that the ninja academy has a great learning atmosphere now, and everyone is studying hard?"

"Me? A kind-hearted person who couldn't bear to see you go astray."

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and then carefully turned it over.

Chiba controlled the three of them individually, then made them climb onto the wall. Naruto turned and glared angrily at him, but—

Chiba smiled brightly: "At your age, if you're not studying, how can you possibly have the mood to play?"

Naruto looked Chiba up and down.

"Are you skipping classes?"

Naruto looked at Chiba strangely.

Shikamaru said listlessly, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth.

Everyone else is skipping class, but this guy acts like he's so noble, always lecturing others.

Shikamaru raised his index finger, signaling Chiba to be quiet.

"Ah, I see. I tried it for a while, but it was too tiring, and graduating early would be even more troublesome. I thought about it and felt that staying a little longer would be a good idea."

"Huh? Who are you?"

"Hehe, come on, I'll take you guys to play."

"Hmph, is that even a question? You skipped class too, didn't you?"

As he spoke, several strands of chakra shot out.

Dingci remained silent and ate his food on the side.

slap~

With a snap of their fingers, they fell off the wall.

Naruto wanted to climb out to get revenge, but Shikamaru held him back. Choji also wanted to go out to get revenge, but seeing that Shikamaru wasn't going to leave, he stopped.

I've never suffered a loss since I was a child, as long as I'm with Shikamaru.

"We're no match for them, let's hurry back, the patrolling teacher must have heard the commotion."

"Damn it! I hope I never run into him at school!"

Naruto was indignant.

"Even if you met him, you couldn't beat him."

Shikamaru shrank back into the classroom, muttering, "His chakra threads are really strong. The three of us couldn't break free just now. If I'm not mistaken, he should be Yagyu Chiba, who graduated early."

"Oh, him."

Choji thought for a moment, then continued stuffing himself with food.

Indeed, I can’t beat him.

"What's wrong with Yagyu Chiba? I'm going to go out and teach him a lesson."

Naruto angrily jumped over the wall.

Shikamaru covered his face speechlessly.

Choji paused for a moment, then looked at him, seemingly asking for his opinion.

"Never mind him, let's run!"

After Shikamaru finished speaking, he sped up his escape.

Not long after, on his way back to the classroom, he saw Naruto walking right into the school gate.

I'm depreesed!

He wouldn't listen to me even though I told him not to deliver it.

Chiba sat at the school gate, chatting warmly with the teachers.

"Well, buddy, I heard you're even the lead surgeon at the hospital?"

"It's all a rumor. I was just an assistant; I couldn't possibly perform surgery."

Chiba shook his head modestly.
