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

"You say."

Chiba sat in the pavilion, gesturing for them to speak freely.

Genma Shiranui nodded, then voiced his question.

"You previously suggested to the Third Hokage that a ninja who has mastered space-time ninjutsu could be paired with two ninjas who lack such talent to form the Flying Thunder Formation, but after trying it, we found that it wouldn't work."

"Why won't it work? Could you explain in more detail?"

Chiba was somewhat curious.

There shouldn't be any problem with division of labor and cooperation. As long as they implement their plans according to their own ideas, it should be achievable.

Genma Shiranui thought for a few seconds, and was about to speak when Raido Namiashi spoke first: "The space is unstable."

"How did you do it?"

Chiba frowned.

Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case.

"We'll follow the old method and let others share the responsibility of casting spells and maintaining the formation."

"That's what Genma Shiranui said."

"Of course not. You can't use the old methods; you have to use the new ones."

Chiba understood the crux of the problem: "You used to each take on a part, and then the three of you would work together to construct the Flying Thunder Formation, right?"

"Ah."

The three nodded.

“As I said before, you need to focus all your energy on building the space. You can’t keep using the old methods.”

Chiba paused for a moment, then added, "Also, the fact that the other two don't need space-time abilities doesn't mean they don't need to master the Flying Thunder Formation."

"Yes, the Flying Thunder Formation requires coordination in many aspects. If you don't understand it at all, and it requires that '1' to fully coordinate it, it's impossible for an ordinary person to complete the spell."

He always chimed in from the sidelines.

Genma Shiranui already understood their mistake, but...

Hearing this, he still wanted to ask one more question.

"You say that ordinary people can't do it, but is there anyone who can?"

"Chiba-kun can definitely do it."

He always has a confident look on his face.

In her mind, Chiba was omnipotent. Techniques like the Flying Thunder Formation could be mastered after watching for a short while, without requiring much study.

of course.

The Flying Thunder God Technique is incredibly profound, requiring a long period of accumulation and study; it cannot be thoroughly understood in a short time.

However, Chiba must have seen enough by now.

In a sense...

She is even more confident than Chiba.

Everyone else turned to look at Chiba, but Kazusa and Yamato quickly regained their composure.

indeed.

Chiba can definitely do it.

The four people in the Xuanjian group exchanged glances, unsure of what to say.

I know Chiba is amazing, but to exaggerate like this is going too far, especially since the three of them have such a consistent attitude!

Genma Shiranui muttered to himself.

"Chiba, why don't you demonstrate?"

Yamato, look over here.

Chiba glared at Tenten, then laughed and said, "Actually, it's not that exaggerated. I can't do it either."

"Or should we give it a try?"

Yamashiro Aoba glanced at her teammates.

These old friends weren't exactly unconvinced; they just wanted to see just how skilled Chiba really was.

It was no secret in their team that Chiba had combined the Flying Thunder Formation with Summoning Technique to create the Summoning Array Technique, and he had also put forward this idea.

In any case, this child must have a deep understanding of the Flying Thunder Formation.

"Alright, Captain Yamato, Aoba-senpai, will you cooperate with me?"

"no problem."

The two of them stood up and went outside with Chiba.

Then, the three formed a battle formation.

After explaining the situation, Yamato and Yamashiro Aoba nodded repeatedly.

Finally, Chiba said, "If I'm cooperating with you, I can't teleport living things, so I'll teleport the information scroll in the middle. Genma-senpai, could you please move further away?"

"Yes."

The layout is complete.

Chiba performs hand seals and casts a spell.

In no time, the technique spread from his feet to Yamashiro Aoba and Yamato's feet. As Yamato and the others released their chakra, the information scroll in the middle disappeared instantly.

"It's done?!"

Namiashi Raido was utterly astonished and immediately turned to look in the direction where Shiranui Genma had gone.

About ten seconds later, Genma Shiranui returned from a distance, holding an intelligence scroll in his hand.

His expression was complicated.

Although it was just an intelligence scroll, not a live teleportation, they were able to prevent even the intelligence scroll from being transmitted, even with the help of two ninjas who didn't know the Flying Thunder Formation.

High judgment.

He sighed deeply and said with shame, "The Third Generation Lord initially asked me if I was interested in being your captain, but later said I wasn't suitable. I was a little resentful, but now I see that it's true."

Genma Shiranui was completely convinced.

Making him the captain of Chiba is like having a thorn in his side; he probably feels uncomfortable every day.

Chiba's abilities are truly extraordinary.

Just like the spell just now, Genma Shiranui's interpretation was more intuitive than the others. Chiba's inability to teleport objects was not due to his lack of understanding of the Flying Thunder Formation.

However, his spacetime abilities are still in their early stages and he may not be fully proficient in them yet.

As captain, his only role might be to provide some experience as a ninja; otherwise, he's not as good as Chiba.

"..."

Is this true?

The third generation is really unreliable!

Chiba's inner monologue.

Yamato's eyes welled up with tears, and he longed to hold Genma Shiranui's hand and pour out his heart.

Being Captain Chiba is really tough!

Although he is called the captain, he is actually Chiba's assistant and teammate. He probably only feels like a real captain when it comes to mission execution.

Genji looked at him.

"Yamato-senpai, it's truly amazing that you can be Chiba-kun's captain!"

"It's alright, anyway, we all cooperated very well this time!"

Yamato chuckled dryly and changed the subject.

He roughly knew what had happened with Genma Shiranui.

The Third Hokage initially planned to choose Genma Shiranui, but after consulting Kakashi, he decisively changed his choice to himself.

In a sense...

I really have to thank Kakashi for his enthusiastic recommendation!

Yamato gritted his teeth.

When I get back, I'm going to give Kakashi a good beating, otherwise I'll really feel resentful.

Do not!

It shouldn't be one meal.

Kakashi should take care of all my meals in Konoha!

Yamato thought to himself.

"We've finished eating, let's get started again. This mission can't be delayed for too long."

"Yes!"

Chapter 138 Orochimaru: He can create something from nothing.

The next day, the two teams arrived in the northern part of the Land of Fire.

Once we get here, we can't walk together anymore; that would make us too conspicuous and easily noticed.

"According to intelligence, the target is near the Tenchi Bridge in the Land of Grass. Our nominal mission is to escort a border caravan to the Land of Grass, so we need to meet up with the caravan first."

"Yes!"

Yamato's experience in missions is commendable.
