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

Even with the mask on, Chiba felt that Kakashi's smile must be quite sinister.

but.

Breeding a catfish is indeed a good approach.

In the original work, Sakura's fighting spirit was ignited because of Ino—

Although it didn't last long, the old illness relapsed.

Having resolved his troubles, Kakashi's mood instantly lifted.

"Once I've sorted things out here, I'll do more research on immortal transformation, but I might need your help with the balance point then."

Without Chiba, Asuma might still be suffering.

Kakashi isn't stubborn.

genius?

Those were things we fought over when we were kids.

Adult ninjas only care about practical benefits.

Chiba readily agreed.

He was on his own, and he couldn't possibly handle supplying both parasitic insects and giant ants all at once.

It's good that there are no tasks lately.

What if we have to go on a mission?

The more people who master the ability to transform into immortals, the more backup lovers there will be.

Two? How could that be enough?

Regarding updates, we are now updating three times a day, which is less, but each chapter is three to four thousand words long. In order to increase the average number of subscriptions, we have not split the chapters.

Chapter 119 Evolution! The Battle of the Insect Kings

"Dilu wants to attend the research institute's opening ceremony?"

The third generation looked bewildered.

This is a letter from the Fire Temple to Konoha, delivered through official Konoha channels, not by Asuma.

but.

Konoha has no plans to hold a so-called "opening ceremony" for the time being!

The third generation looked at the letter and fell into deep thought.

He feels...

There must be something that forced Dilu to make this trip.

Is it Chiba?

He looked at the letter, pondering it over and over.

In fact, that's what he thought too.

what does this mean?

status!

If Chiba and Kakashi possessed the ability to train the Anbu...

How did Chiba learn it?

The third generation inquired further and learned that Chiba had developed it himself, because even the Fire Temple currently lacked a method for inheriting the Sage Transformation technique.

Why are you asking this?

He really needed to help Asuma, otherwise he was afraid that Asuma might mutate or turn into stone one day.

The third generation handed him the letter.

The Fire Temple has lost its lineage!

Even becoming an immortal requires practice.

The Third Hokage also entrusted this matter to Asuma, asking him to deliver it. Asuma immediately took the letter and went to find Chiba, and by the way...

After thinking about it...

The last time Jiriku visited Konoha, it was to discuss a collaboration with Chiba, and afterwards he seemed to have taught Chiba the knowledge of "Talent of the Immortal Clan".

The third generation nodded and handed the letter to him.

It must be because of Chiba.

Asuma didn't want to interact much with the third generation.

The third generation shook his head.

He quickly realized what Dilu was trying to do.

"it is good."

Chiba...

Ask Chiba to help supervise the cultivation of the Sage Transformation.

but.

He began to feel conflicted.

It seems to be getting stronger and stronger.

Chiba is very busy.

He knew his old friend quite well; not only Chiba, but even if Kakashi had taken over, Danzo would still have been dissatisfied.

He pondered for a long time.

Before leaving home, he asked one more question.

Is he a suitable candidate?

No.

After all, the research institute is still affiliated with Konoha.

He wished he had half again as much time, so he could maintain his teacher persona while having more time to cultivate himself.

Chiba has unknowingly stirred up another major incident!

Immortalization?

He had heard of it, but he didn't know the specifics.

For example, Danzo?

The third generation narrowed his eyes.

Back home, he asked Asuma, and only then did the third generation find out...

Let Chiba decide for himself. If he wants to hold an opening ceremony, he can just apply for it.

The Third Generation knew very well that if Chiba were willing to join the Fire Temple, Jiraiya would probably be very happy to give up his position.

"Let's give it to Chiba and let him decide for himself."

The third generation decided to go back and ask Asuma.

He's too young, and putting him in a position of power would put him under immense pressure; many people might not be convinced of his abilities.

but.

"Hinoji sent a letter saying that he hopes to attend the opening ceremony of Chiba's research institute, but we don't have that plan at the moment."

Asma took it, glanced at it, and felt a little surprised.

It shouldn't be too long.

Asuma has already reached the threshold and obtained two trial cards; if he doesn't succeed soon...

That's really awful.

The next day, Asma felt extremely ashamed.

He hasn't fully mastered it yet, and sometimes he experiences unstable symptoms. If it weren't for Chiba's help, he probably would have already mutated.

Fortunately.

After a night of guidance, Asuma, though not fully mastering it, had grasped the patterns of the aura of the immortal transformation and was able to interrupt his cultivation on his own.

This is a huge step forward.

For Chiba, the gains were equally significant.

His case is unique and there are no universal examples, but Asuma basically represents the situation of the monks of the Fire Temple.

Going from zero to one is extremely difficult.

Asuma was halfway to success, making the subsequent promotion of the Fire Temple much easier.

Thank you, Asma, for providing such valuable experience!

Otherwise, Chiba would be exhausted from spending so much time with Asuma.

He wrote his reflections at home.

"Pay attention to changes in your aura. When you enter the alienation state, your chakra and mental state will become disordered."

"Based on this assumption, my visualization method should also be successful, but we still need to observe it, and we don't know if it will be widely adopted."

of course.

Even if it were to gain wider acceptance, the visualization method still involves the intellectual property rights of the Yamanaka clan, so Chiba could not possibly promote it.

At most, it would be similar to the deal with the Fire Temple, where the Yamanaka clan's consent would be obtained before the techniques were taught to authorized ninjas.

but.
