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

Chapter 168 I suggest we arrest Danzo first.

Chiba did not launch an attack immediately.

In his perception, Danzo had not yet arrived nearby; he was simply changing his position to better observe Danzo's movements.

soon.

Danzo appeared not far away.

He didn't hide himself at all, but walked out directly from around the corner. He paused for a moment just to create a time difference between himself and Mitokado Yan.

Chiba narrowed his eyes.

If his true form were to leave, Danzo, as the one who arrived later, would have the opportunity to unleash Kotoamatsukami upon himself.

It seems...

It is highly likely, as speculated, that Danzo formed some kind of cooperation with Orochimaru.

"I'm on the roof."

"Chiba, you didn't leave? Then just now..."

When Chiba mentioned it, he immediately thought of the technique's effectiveness against the Mind Turning Secret Technique, and he secretly took a breath.

"Mental defense technique?"

Chiba canceled his shadow clone, and his real body flipped off the roof.

Chiba answered half-truthfully.

A few minutes later, Danzo left the Hokage Building.

Chiba added a sentence.

The Shadow Clone Technique creates physical clones, which are impossible to detect even with the Byakugan or Sharingan. Danzo would definitely use some means to identify them.

It really means—

The secret techniques of the mountain clan are absolutely not something that can be traded away.

but.

Although the Yamanaka clan has some cooperation and transactions with Chiba, the relationship doesn't come out of nowhere. If they don't reciprocate, the relationship between the two families will eventually run out.

but.

but.

With defensive spells added to his abilities, he is virtually impossible to control with illusions.

"Simple mental defenses are not very useful; they can only sense the effects of illusions."

Chiba's mental strength, mental energy, and control abilities are all stronger than those of ordinary people, so his resistance to illusions is stronger than that of ordinary people.

What transaction method should we use?

If I take direct action, Danzo will use the excuse that "Root" received the information, making it impossible to truly eliminate Danzo. Instead, it will only make me appear paranoid.

He lay on the roof, contemplating his next steps.

but.

Thinking of this, Yamanaka Inoichi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chiba-kun, so you're saying Danzo and Mitokado Homura came for you?"

After thinking for a few seconds, he decided to wait a little longer.

Then, based on the feedback from his shadow clone, Chiba recounted how Danzo had tested him with genjutsu.

At least he could secretly tell Inoichi about Danzo testing him, so that Inoichi and the Third Hokage could be mentally prepared in advance, which would make his subsequent actions easier.

Hai Yi's face showed shock.

Now is not the time to consider which ones.

This time it was not without gain.

After devising a strategy, Chiba lay on the rooftop, quietly waiting for Danzo and Mitokado Homura to leave.

If others were to learn mental defense techniques, they would likely achieve similar results.

Haiyi was naturally more concerned about the latter.

"It could be a daimyo."

At the same time, he began to worry.

Others may not know Chiba's strength, but Danzo, who controls Root and some of the secret agents previously sent out by the Anbu, certainly does, which is why he plans to use genjutsu to deal with Chiba.

Hai frowned, then nodded.

Yamanaka Inoichi sighed inwardly. After a moment of confusion, he shook his head, dismissing some unrealistic ideas from his mind.

The same applies to the art of mind-body transformation.

Good thing...

Currently, only Chiba and a few others have learned this technique. Even if there is an opportunity to promote it in the future, the most likely ones to master it will be the Yamanaka clan.

Why is it an illusion?

Haiyi asked in bewilderment, "Danzo is skilled in Wind Release and swordsmanship, but I've never heard of him being skilled in genjutsu. How can he be so confident that he can use genjutsu without being detected by you?"

"Maybe it's the Uchiha clan?"

Chiba narrowed his eyes.

Sharingan.

Of course, these words cannot be said casually to others, as unfounded speculation can easily put Chiba at a disadvantage.

but.

Haiyi, the head of the intelligence department, did not believe that he had no suspicions about the Uchiha clan massacre.

Those people were buried immediately after they died?

If Haiyi really believes this, then it's time to replace the head of the intelligence department.

Haiyi clearly did not believe it.

So, looking somewhat embarrassed, he coughed lightly and said, "I don't think ordinary Sharingan genjutsu has reached that level, has it?"

“I have read the Second Hokage’s notes, which say that the Uchiha have an even more terrifying power beyond the three-tomoe.

Chiba squinted slightly.

Haiyi frowned and said, "My father once said that Madara Uchiha and his brother had eyes stronger than the three-tomoe eye. Could it be that Danzo also obtained such eyes?"

"It's just speculation."

Chiba made no judgment, provided no evidence, and arbitrarily labeled the actions of a Konoha bigwig. Even if Inoichi had a good relationship with him, he would never agree with it.

That would only make me look strange.

He thought for a moment, then suddenly looked at the instrument.

How did things go at the exam venue?

"The first round is over, let me share my perception with you."

Haiyi placed his hand on Chiba's forehead.

Chiba then "saw" the scene.

……

"I advise you to think it through. If someone gives up voluntarily, their teammates can still pass the level. Otherwise, they will become a burden to everyone in the end."

"Those who lack confidence in their teammates should also consider whether they should kick out those who are definitely unqualified, for example..."

Ibihi grinned maliciously on the stage.

The audience was silent.

Ibi smiled and said, "If you leave the classroom, you won't have this opportunity again. Think it over carefully. If you've made up your mind, you can leave the classroom now."

Afterwards, many people stood up and slowly walked out of the classroom.

Others only realized they should stand up and follow after seeing their teammates leave.

Among them are Naruto and Gaara.

"Gaara, how are you?"

"Humph."

Gaara's face remained indifferent, but those who knew him well knew that he was very unhappy.

Kankuro was about to say something more when Temari tugged at his sleeve and gently shook her head.

then.

Temari walked over to him and said softly, "Gaara, just like the examiner said, as long as our team's performance meets the standard, it doesn't matter if our academic scores aren't very good."

"..."

Gaara stared at her, his eyes burning with rage.

but.

After a few seconds, he snorted coldly, turned around and left: "I don't need your comfort, and this kind of exam is meaningless."

Kankuro started to speak but stopped.

Chiba's exam was really excessive.

The three people who were writing furiously had a mix of true and false answers. If I hadn't thought of going back first and figuring it out slowly, I probably would have gone over time and had my name written down just by thinking about it in the bathroom.

If they really get eliminated for such a ridiculous reason...

My father will not let me off the hook!
