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

Chiba gave Yakushi Kabuto a strange look.

This guy suddenly got excited.

What are you thinking about?

He narrowed his eyes and said, "You know my status and situation in Konoha. I can even influence the Anbu, so... don't do anything behind my back."

"Lord Chiba, how could I dare to do anything else?"

Kabuto lowered his head, trying to hide his excitement.

really.

He had previously felt that Chiba wasn't so innocent, and that she must have had a deeper purpose in keeping him around, but now...

Everything has come to light!

If the bet is successful, he will use the Second Hokage to kill Orochimaru, and then use himself to seize Orochimaru's research results, village, and power for himself.

Take advantage of the situation and act in accordance with the trend.

Great!

"By the way, Lord Chiba, what about Orochimaru's subordinates..."

but.

This was true of both the oil-producing women's family and the mountain family.

Chiba always makes a project big so that everyone can benefit from it, and over time others will naturally be willing to follow his orders.

Understood!

Chiba's strategy was completely different from Orochimaru's.

He doesn't want to leave Chiba right now.

As long as Kabuto doesn't cause trouble, Chiba won't take his life.

Then, Chiba thought of Guren.

He pondered for a moment and said, "If they are loyal to Orochimaru, you should find a way to persuade them. In short, make them stop killing indiscriminately like before, and do more good deeds and help the country become stronger. That's more important than anything else."

Sound ninjutsu differs slightly from ordinary ninjutsu.

"Yes, I understand!"

Chiba nodded slightly and said, "Okay, you help me collect all the information related to the Impure World Reincarnation. Burn all the information and don't leave any traces."

Until then……

Yakushi Kabuto lowered his head deeply.

Techniques like Fire Release and Earth Release require nature transformation, but sound ninjutsu primarily creates special sound waves through chakra vibrations and does not involve any nature transformation.

Chiba pondered for a long time.

Although Chiba placed numerous restrictions on him and used various methods, they were all placed in front of him, and he had no intention of hiding them from him.

Killing this bug wouldn't be difficult, but once it is, he will completely lose Chiba's trust, and he will surely die if they meet again.

If the Hyuga clan can be won over in the future, it's only a matter of time before Chiba becomes Hokage, and even the Third Hokage can't stop him.

This Crystal Release ninja seems to be quite loyal to Orochimaru.

this means……

As Chiba spoke, he narrowed his eyes and, upon sensing something, a parasitic insect flew out from his sleeve and, at his command, burrowed into Yakushi Kabuto's body.

"Keep them, but we need to reform their mindset. Make them work seriously and stop thinking about crooked ways. Also, make them use the power of the curse seal less often."

Orochimaru's style comes from the battlefield: aggression, plunder, and victory through brute force.

When he was with Chiba, Kabuto Yakushi wasn't so worried or afraid.

All the rules are laid out in the open.

"The information."

He was quite interested in sound ninjutsu.

Also.

"No need, just destroy it."

Thinking of this, he bowed and continued, "I just remembered that there is a lot of research data left behind by Lord Orochimaru in the Sound Village. I wonder if you need it."

If you don’t take it, you won’t get it.

Kabuto lowered his head, then slightly raised it. "What about Lord Orochimaru's immortality technique?"

With Konoha inside and Sound Ninja outside, who can withstand their combined strength?

As for Orochimaru.

Most of the information from Orochimaru's side was quite useful, and it saved him the trouble of doing his own research; much of it could be used after a few modifications.

It would be a waste not to take it.

"Yes!"

On the contrary, if Chiba is allowed to do things without any precautions, he feels that Chiba is too naive and innocent.

Offense will result in death.

Sorry, I've found a new direction.

Kabuto dared not resist.

The pharmacist's lips curled into a slight smile.

"By the way, when you get back, remind them that they can use an absorption barrier to let the patients use their chakra to feed back to the doctors. Otherwise, unless it's Lady Tsunade, no one can withstand the drain."

Chiba added, "The Aburame clan's medical parasites are also being utilized; they are much more efficient than medical ninjas in providing basic treatments."

"As expected of you, I will pass on your teachings to them."

The pharmacist's face showed excitement and sudden realization.

In fact, he had thought of many of these ideas, but as a genin, it would be too attention-grabbing to bring them up, so he kept them to himself.

"Alright, go ahead and do your work. I have other things to do."

Having finished discussing the important matters, Chiba did not linger any longer.

His relationship with Douming wasn't that good; he would only offer a little guidance at most, and spending too much time alone with him would inevitably arouse suspicion.

We can communicate using parasites in the future.

Chiba thought to himself.

Orochimaru wasn't completely dead, but that didn't stop him from raiding the house. Anyway, once Orochimaru comes out, he definitely won't need these things anymore.

just now……

He used his senses to investigate and discovered that the Third Generation was with Rasa.

It's not the right time to go looking for the third generation.

Chiba continued his search.

finally--

He sensed a goal.

Sasuke Uchiha.

"Sasuke, we originally planned to send him to Orochimaru for further training, but that's definitely not going to work now. But having him follow Kakashi might also be..."

Kakashi is certainly qualified to teach Sasuke.

but.

This guy needs further training himself, and with Sasuke on his side, his strength growth will be very limited.

After thinking it over and over, he still had no clue.

I've thought about it for a long time...

"Perhaps, the dark side or the root would be a good choice."

Chiba suddenly thought of—

Now that Danzo is dead, there is naturally no one in charge of Root.

I can easily take it from you.

of course.

He will not continue using the original model.

The full name of the department is the Dark Training Department.

It originally existed to train members of the Anbu, but after Danzo took it over, he gradually transformed it into his own force.

It's time to let it return to its original state.

Over there, many techniques can be implemented at one's own discretion, without needing the approval of three generations of ancestors for every matter.

With this in mind, Chiba had already made up his mind.

He quickened his pace and arrived outside Konoha Hospital, where he saw Kakashi standing at the entrance with a book in his hand, but it was clear at a glance that Kakashi's mind was not on the book at all.

Who reads a book without turning the pages, and whose eyes are constantly wandering?

"Kakashi-sensei, what are you thinking about?"

"Chiba."

Kakashi closed the book, regained his previous composure, and then remained silent for a while. "Why are you here? Did the Third Hokage want to see me? Oh right, you were with the two Hokage earlier, what's going on?"

"You two have already returned to the Underworld. I am not acting on the orders of the Third Hokage, but simply to visit you and Sasuke."

Chiba said simply.

When Sasuke was mentioned, Kakashi recovered from his previous emotions and became somewhat worried.

"Sasuke is inside, he's recovered, and he even went out and killed a few enemies just now, but..."
