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

After finishing its meal, it left contentedly and did not bother us again.

The current Beetle King is much larger, a size larger than an ordinary dog, and there is a faint trace of Sage Chakra similar to that of Chiba flowing within its body.

even--

Its carapace, perhaps influenced by Sage Chakra, gradually took on a golden sheen from its original black color.

The consequence of this is...

Its carapace defense is even stronger than before!

"Captain Yamato, please create another clone for me. My ninja tool throwing is a long-range support skill, and it's only effective when there are many targets."

"Really, that's all, Tiantian, let me rest for a while!"

Yamato's pitiful cries came from the training ground in the distance.

"Alright, it seems you really are out of chakra. Perfect timing, I just finished crafting a new chakra-absorbing ninja tool yesterday, which we can use for testing."

"what???"

"..."

Chiba paused for a moment, not daring to enter the training ground. Instead, he decisively used chakra to cover his body with a protective membrane, then silently left, concealing his merit and fame.

Captain Yamato, believe in yourself, you can do it!

At that moment, he remembered that he still had a project...

Wood Release.

This is what I promised Yamato before.

"It's so difficult!"

He sighed silently.

An additional task has appeared in the project list, and it's an urgent task that needs to be prioritized.

Chiba sensed at least ten Wood Release clones at the research institute just now. If he didn't offer some incentives, he believed Captain Yamato would soon lose interest in doing this much work.

We must appease them!

This matter is even more important than the Seven-Day Invocation.

He quickly pondered the situation, quickened his pace, and headed back to his research lab, but...

As I approached the lab door, a figure stood there.

She's not very tall, but her hair is styled beautifully, and her clothes are very bright and eye-catching. However, she hasn't fully developed yet, and the fruit isn't ripe.

"Chiba-senpai!"

Chiba scanned the area from top to bottom, then smiled slightly.

"Ino, what's wrong?"

"No, I studied it carefully after I got back. Your technique is indeed usable, but it might be a little too difficult for genin and chunin?"

Ino looked at Chiba cautiously, afraid that her words might be inappropriate and offend him.

Chiba nodded slightly: "The technique I'm imagining is probably between B+ and A in difficulty. It's not easy for the average person to learn it."

"I'm sorry, it's only been a day, and I haven't been able to fully grasp your technique yet, but I've tried incorporating our clan's perception techniques, and I think it might make things easier."

Ino said, handing over a notebook.

This is what she wrote.

Chiba's expression was strange. It seemed that he was the only one who had this habit from the beginning, but now it seemed that all the ninjas he had come into contact with had started to develop similar habits.

Really...

congratulations!

He chuckled inwardly, but outwardly remained calm as he accepted the gift.

The notes are few in number, and it's clear that Ino only started trying similar note-taking and writing habits after learning this technique; there are only a few thin pages.

Ino blushed and said, "I'm very sorry, I imitated your method without your permission."

"It's nothing, it's just a learning method. As you know, human memory is limited. If you don't write it down, old ideas might be overtaken by new ones."

Chiba answered casually.

Ino's lips twitched.

Memory is limited and gets overtaken by new ideas...

You have so many creative ideas!

but.

She had no doubt about Chiba's abilities; the more she learned about him, the more she admired this senior who was only one year older than her.

He is absolutely a role model for the new generation of ninjas!

Just like yesterday.

For Chiba, the entire process, from hearing the idea to writing down the specific technique, took only two or three minutes.

A single artwork can be created in two or three minutes.

Is this a gifted talent?

Before she got to know Chiba better, this is what she thought.

But now...

She understood perfectly well that Chiba was able to do it simply because he read a lot and thought a lot, accumulating enough knowledge and creativity, so that when he heard something similar, he could immediately come up with a solution in his mind.

Unlike many clans' ninjas, Chiba's secret lies in only one thing—

Knowledge made him powerful!

of course.

These are all Chiba's perspectives as seen through Ino's eyes.

In fact, the technique Chiba gave Ino wasn't difficult; it was simply a combination of telescope technique and synchronized perception. The difficulty lay in fully understanding chakra, perception, and hand seals.

While Ino was lost in thought, he had already finished reading what Ino had written.

"Ino, aren't many of these your family's secret techniques?"

"It's alright, these aren't any secret techniques, just some knowledge. I consulted my father before I came out, and he was very supportive of me showing them to you."

Ino smiled and said, "Furthermore, your father is very supportive of your spirit. If you make a breakthrough in your research, he is willing to share it with the village, just like you have."

Chiba looked up at her, then nodded thoughtfully.

Yamanaka Inoichi's move was truly ingenious.

By helping Ino, he deepened his connection with her and also gained considerable benefits from the village and the genin community.

One fish, four ways to cook it.

None of the clan leaders are simpletons.

Chiba closed the notebook, pondered for a while, then took out a pair of sunglasses, but after thinking about it, he replaced them with a crystal ball.

"Your idea is feasible, but there's one thing you've overlooked: ordinary people don't have the same level of mental energy as you, so they need the help of their teammates."

Chiba gestured for her to come up and help, "You just need to inject chakra."

"Yes!"

Ino placed her hand on the crystal ball, her fingers trembling slightly.

He then placed his hand on the crystal ball, channeling his perceptions into it through spiritual energy.

Soon.

A crystal-clear image appeared on the crystal ball.

This is……

The scene of Captain Yamato.

Moreover, Ino has complete knowledge of Chiba's sensory state—

What terrifying sensory abilities!

Chiba's perception was so sharp that it was as if he had seen it with his own eyes; he could even completely discern which was Yamato's clone and which was the original.

Is this perception?

Aside from lacking the effect of insightful vision, this is basically just white eye roll!

The sensory synchronization ended within seconds.

Ino opened her eyes, her feelings complicated.

"How about it?"

"Uh, your perception..."

"I'm not talking about my perception abilities. I'm asking you what you think of this technique, and whether you know why I asked you to do it?"

"As you said, ordinary people don't have the same level of mental energy as the Yamanaka family. Apart from genjutsu ninjas, others don't know how to use mental energy."

Ino pondered for a moment and said, "Using chakra is the simplest and most direct way to connect with the spirit."

"Yes."

Chiba nodded approvingly.

All twelve of the main characters are indeed talented, even Ino, who is considered a pretty face.

Ino bowed deeply.

"Thank you for your guidance!"

"Well, since Lord Haiyi wants to share it with the research institute and the village, in addition to creating it, he also needs to write a detailed report. Go write the report, and while you're at it, analyze the principles and knowledge points. Consider it an extra task for the research institute."

"Yes!"

Ino knew how difficult the task Chiba had given her was.
