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

"Do not believe?"

"..."

Kimimaro slowly sat down, shook his head, and appeared to have no interest in communicating.

In his world, Orochimaru is everything.

just now.

The pillar collapsed.

After a few minutes, he said indifferently, "You don't need to say anything. I will not agree to any of your deals."

Kimimaro understood.

Orochimaru is dead; the other side has come to recruit him.

"Even if Orochimaru has a chance to be resurrected, is it the same?"

"What did you say?!"

Kimimaro looked completely bewildered.

Is there a chance for Orochimaru to be resurrected?

He opened his mouth, then said sharply, "You think you can trick me into working for you?"

"Heh, why would I lie to you? I don't know much about Orochimaru's Reincarnation Technique, but I guess it's based on the existence mode of the Tailed Beasts, merging his life, chakra, and spiritual energy into one."

Chiba said, "Tailed beasts can slowly revive after they die, so I guess he probably still has a backup plan."

"What back-up plan?"

"Hmm? You're Orochimaru's subordinate, aren't you? You should ask yourself that."

"..."

Kimimaro opened his mouth, but had nothing to say.

indeed.

Even though Chiba has extremely strong research abilities and high talent, it is impossible for him to find Orochimaru's backup plan out of thin air; everything still requires the assistance of information.

but.

Something that was troubling him was about to happen.

If I help Chiba find Orochimaru's backup plan, wouldn't the other party have a real chance to kill Orochimaru?

But I won't help...

The other party probably has the means to achieve this as well.

This is an outright conspiracy. As long as he still cares about Orochimaru's life, he has to do things for Chiba, and he's not even sure if what the other party is saying is true or false.

Kimimaro leaned weakly against the wall.

"I can't beat you, and I don't have your skills. How do I know if you're lying to me? And how do I know if you won't kill Lord Orochimaru again after you're resurrected?"

“That’s a good question.”

Chiba nodded approvingly.

Kimimaro truly lives up to his reputation as Orochimaru's strongest subordinate; he is excellent in both strength and intellect.

pity.

Such a person is a die-hard Orochimaru fan.

He sighed and said, "I'm a man who always speaks frankly. To be honest, I've recently acquired quite a few Sharingan eyes and learned a secret technique that, if successful, could allow Orochimaru to work for me."

"!!!"

Kimimaro opened his mouth, but was too shocked to speak.

In the world...

There's such a ninjutsu?

"It's alright, you have some time to think it over. I need to look for the whereabouts of this technique during this time, and I also have a lot of things to do in the village."

Chiba stood up, preparing to seal Kimimaro back.

Kimimaro quickly called out, "Wait!"

"Ok?"

"Would you be willing to extend my life?"

"Correct."

Chiba nodded.

Kimimaro remained silent.

Chiba didn't stand on ceremony and sealed him back in.

Tough nuts to crack definitely take a while to crack.

but.

We're already halfway there!

Chapter 181 Selling Puppet Techniques in Sunagakure?

After leaving the Anbu, Chiba had been pondering a question—

How to use the Sharingan.

Chiba felt it wasn't worth it to learn from Kakashi or Danzo, as the chakra consumption would be too great. He thought it would be better to find a way to improve his power in Sage Mode.

or.

Could we consider learning from Madara Uchiha and implementing a plug-and-play solution?

Recovery is not a problem.

Chiba believed that as his ninjutsu became more widespread, his various abilities would also become more powerful, and recovery was one of them.

just.

Plug and play...

He had heard about Chiba's ideas indirectly from Asuma, but this was the first time Chiba had fully explained his plan.

"As you said, the true root of Konoha is people?"

"I used to agree with Danzo's ideas to some extent. There were many things that I, as the Hokage, was not suitable to do, so he could carry them out. So... hehe, looking back, many things were probably wrong."

and.

Chiba said, "For example, why do I research easy-to-master ninjutsu and spread them? Because only in this way can Konoha's foundation become stronger and stronger!"

"Shall we talk as we walk?"

What is the foundation?

Ninja, child.

"Or, we could consider an effect similar to the Eye of Sand, using chakra to simulate nerve currents and form a connection between chakra threads and the eyes?"

"Oh?"

Use ninjutsu to strengthen Konoha's foundation.

"Chiba, Danzo's root... I want to hear your thoughts on this. You don't need to treat me as Hokage, just as Hiruzen Sarutobi."

It seems Jiraiya said something from behind.

The Third Hokage had already returned to the Hokage Building from outside and wasn't too far away from him.

The Third Hokage had been chatting with Jiraiya earlier, so he hadn't mentioned these things. Now it's a good time to go back and talk about them.

Maybe I should give it a try?

hiss!

"In that case, I think I need to go and discuss the issue of compensation after Sunagakure's surrender with the Third Hokage."

Ultimately, it all boils down to two words: education.

Chiba was stunned when he thought of this.

"For example, with Wood Release, my shadow clones discussed several projects with the Daimyo, which I think have great potential. The first is Wood Release: Life-Generating Technique, the second is Ninja Beast-type Pets, and the third is Civil Engineering."

He knew it.

"Yes."

Having to scoop it out every time you use it is torture.

Chiba didn't try to hide anything and said calmly.

"of course."

This plan.

Chiba nodded.

Chiba instantly accelerated and headed towards the Hokage Building.

The Third Hokage sighed, "If the Roots were necessary, Konoha wouldn't be getting weaker and weaker."

"That's right. The Land of Fire has an excellent geographical location and is one of the wealthiest countries among the five great nations. We should develop and make good use of our strengths and cultivate more talents."

Chiba immediately changed direction.

“The true root should be the foundation, not a dark organization.”

It must hurt a lot!

The third generation said.

After listening, the three generations pondered for more than half a minute.
