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

Return to Konoha.

"Completing a difficult challenge will definitely give you a sense of accomplishment, which is something that simple tasks cannot provide."

Smile every day.

"Yes, yes!"

Actually, every day is also a good choice.

The third generation stood to the side, a slight smile appearing on their faces. These children…

You can consider it!

The third generation decided to go back and discuss it with the Monkey King, and then test Tenten's weapon skills.

"What could possibly happen to me? It's a pity we didn't capture Orochimaru, we only got a snake tail."

Tenten and Kazusa quietly walked to Chiba's side.

move on.

Chiba smiled gently.

The third generation looked ahead and suddenly had an idea.

In the past, he wouldn't have considered these things, but now the atmosphere in Konoha has been transformed to an absurd degree by Chiba, with almost all the major clans contributing their secret techniques.

Most importantly, he already has very urgent things to do right now—

A bright future is definitely on the horizon!

he sighed.

Dilu and Baishi are still waiting.

"Tenten, Kazusa, I have something else to do."

"It's alright. I just need to talk to Kazusa about the sword. You go do your own thing."

"Ah."

Chiba turned to leave, but suddenly remembered something, turned back and asked, "A sword? Didn't you get a sword?"

“Yes, but our family still has chakra iron, so we’re going to make another one. Also, I’d like to have a set of scabbards custom-made.”

Kazusa glanced at Chiba's sword as she spoke.

The White Fox Knife is quite beautiful, but compared to hers, the hilt and scabbard are rather ordinary.

As a girl, I still have some small aspirations.

Chiba couldn't understand.

In his view, as long as the knife itself is easy to use, that's enough; the scabbard and appearance are not very important.

but.

"As long as you are happy."

"Tch, you don't understand girls at all."

They drove him away with contempt every day.

Chiba never praised her for her little schemes with the white fox.

Chiba waved goodbye silently.

Spreading her senses, Chiba followed the scent and headed towards the Forest of Death—

Di Lu and his colleagues were at the research institute.

……

Inside the institute.

Aburame Shiki led Jiroku and Shiraishi on a stroll, and then, without realizing it, they were led to a room full of parasitic insects.

This is a research base for medical parasites.

"what are these?"

Shiraishi looked at Aburame Shimi.

As the chief of the Oil Maidens clan, why did you take them to the parasitic insect breeding laboratory?

He secretly pondered Zhiwei's meaning.

"The base of medical parasites. These medical parasites are special. In addition to chakra, they also need special chakra."

A brief introduction to Aburame Shimi.

Then, he looked at Jiraiya and Shiraishi.

“I know that Chiba-kun’s Immortal Clan techniques originated from your Fire Temple. In order not to put Chiba in a difficult position, I would like to discuss this directly with you. Now is the perfect opportunity.”

"Are you interested in trading with our Oil Women clan?"

"That's what Yu Nu Zhiwei said."

After pondering for a long time, Jilu said, "This is the most important secret technique of our Fire Temple. We cannot easily trade with you. I hope you can understand."

"Yes, just as our Aburame clan wouldn't easily teach the secret technique of parasitic insects to others, but what if we could?"

The Aburame clan members had serious expressions.

These kinds of secret techniques are not something anyone can trade, but if the Fire Temple is willing, he can trade secret techniques for secret techniques.

This time...

Di Lu was stunned.

Trading secret techniques for secret techniques?

I didn’t expect that at all!

He looked at Elder Baishi, who was also completely bewildered and didn't know how to answer.

After a long silence, he said, "Chief Zhiwei, are you saying that you'll exchange the Parasitic Worm for the immortal talent of our Fire Temple?"

"We are not talented individuals from the immortal race; we simply want to exchange that power, not specific techniques."

Yu Nuzhi shook her head slightly.

Jiroku and Shiroshi exchanged a glance, then looked at the parasitic insects and vaguely understood what Aburame Shimi meant.

The Aburame family's research on parasitic insects requires the power of Sage Chakra!

Although Chiba is a family, no family would place all their hopes on someone else, otherwise, if something happened to Chiba, the Aburame family would fall into ruin.

impossible.

Aburame Shimi's attitude was very honest.

Di Lu is very conflicted.

As a monk with integrity, he would not do something like raising prices on the spot.

but.

Sage Chakra...

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Your deal is very sincere, we can feel it, but to be honest, even Sage Chakra is a very profound mystery, and we are not very proficient in it either."

"I see, so you're here for the same reason?"

Aburame Shiki understood.

Jiraiya and Shiraishi also came to learn from Chiba.

The person most skilled in magic was right beside me.

Jiro sighed and said, "Although these techniques originated from our Fire Temple, Chiba has also made great contributions. We cannot spread them without his permission."

Aburame Shiki remained silent for a few seconds.

So that's where the problem lies.

Chiba is more worried about Hinokami, while Hinokami is worried about Chiba.

Neither side dared to disclose the information.

"Actually, your two sides also have some cooperation, right?"

Shiraishi chimed in from the side.

Di Lu was stunned for a second, then realized what was happening.

Yes!

If it weren't for Chiba, how could the Aburame family have known about the Sage Clan's talent, and also knew that cultivating medical parasites required "special chakra"?

Obviously.

This project belongs to Chiba and Aburame.

"How about this, we'll discuss our matter with Chiba first, and you can give us some time to consider it. After all, we can't just decide on such an important matter between the two of us."

Di Lu did not immediately agree.

He wanted to hear Chiba's opinion, and also...

Although they received some information from Asuma, it wasn't something they had seen with their own eyes. They wanted to see Chiba's "Sage Mode" for themselves.

If Sage Mode is indeed powerful, then teaching some people the method of refining Sage Chakra wouldn't be too much of a problem.

The most important thing about having one more card than your opponent is to have one more card in your hand.

"it is good."

Oil Girl Zhiwei readily agreed.

He realized that Dilu and Baishi weren't completely adamant about not giving it up, which was the best possible outcome.

We can discuss this further later.

Just as he was about to take Dilu to continue his tour, the Parasite returned, bringing him exciting news.

Chiba is back!
