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

The horse let out a painful groan.

Then, he was somewhat dazed, and when he looked up...

His pupils contracted instantly!

"You, you stay away from me! Get away from me!"

Kazuma was terrified.

He seemed very afraid of Chiba.

Do you remember your son?

"Sora? What did you do to Sora? He's my perfect creation, you can't destroy him!"

Kazuma shouted angrily.

Chiba frowned.

Hai Yi sighed slightly: "His emotions are a bit erratic. It seems that something unexpected has happened to the technique."

"Ah."

Chiba wasn't too surprised.

The mind is the most wondrous and uncontrollable realm. No matter how subtle his manipulation or how great his mental energy, he cannot guarantee that no accidents will occur during the struggle between the two consciousnesses.

Kazuma, in front of us, has shown signs of personality deviation.

"You, you..."

"Let Kong meet with him; he can't keep any secrets anymore."

Chiba got up and left.

This is the second time I've used it, but there's really no way to finely optimize something like mental energy.

However, during the process of splitting his consciousness, he also obtained the memories he wanted—

All of Kazuma's ninjutsu!

Logically speaking, the most precious things should be his Earth Release: Reincarnation Technique and the Soil of the Dead, but Chiba felt that the most precious things were not these two, but the barrier technique that he created with Ma and his apprentice Fuen.

Barrier Gate Sealing Technique - Eight Gates Closure.

This barrier technique can isolate the inside from the outside. Although it has the flaw that "it cannot be interrupted during use", what if the user is a dead person who has been resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation technique?

It's always good to keep it as a backup.

and.

If improvements can be made to the existing techniques, or if these techniques can be combined with Konoha's barrier techniques such as the "Four Purple Flame Formation," it might be possible to create a new barrier technique.

This thing has immense research value.

As for the other ninjutsu, their value is relatively average; Konoha basically has all the essential ones.

Chiba returned to the Forest of Death and met Sora.

He told Sora about Konoha's permission and said that someone would come later to take him to see Kazuma, but it was impossible to let Kazuma leave.

even.

Even though Kazuma is now insane, he can't escape death—

The daimyo will not let him get away with this!

Chiba explained everything clearly, and Sora also knew that Kazuma's actions could not be forgiven at all. Konoha had already shown leniency by not killing him on the spot and allowing him to meet.

not to mention.

They were even willing to help him extract the Nine-Tails' chakra.

Thinking of this, Kong Dang nodded immediately.

Extracting the Nine-Tails' chakra is not difficult.

Although the Nine-Tails' chakra is powerful, it lacks any guiding consciousness, and leaving it within an empty body will only cause it to expand uncontrollably and damage the physical form.

That's why the beast's claw was created.

Chiba extracted the Nine-Tails' chakra and then went to see Shukaku.

"I will be leaving the village for a while."

"Where are you going? You promised to take me to see Nine Lama! Hmm? What's that aura?"

Shukaku dispersed its senses.

Immediately afterwards, it sensed the Nine-Tails' aura from Chiba.

This smell...

It's the Nine-Tails' chakra!

"Chiba, did you bring the Nine-Tails' chakra? Can I have it?"

Shukaku was sharpening its front claws, it was getting very anxious.

Chiba almost laughed: "Even if I were willing to give it to you, you might not be able to digest it. The Nine-Tails' chakra is different from yours."

"Let me try it!"

"Alright, I'll keep this part of the chakra. I'll use it to create a mini Nine-Tails, and bring back a live Nine-Tails for you to bully later."

Chiba smiled and reassured her.

Shukaku's eyes lit up, and he said, "Will you go out and help me catch the Nine-Tails?"

"It's not about arresting them, it's just about going on a trip."

Chiba said.

"Can you take me with you?"

Shukaku said excitedly, "I used to travel with the Sage of Six Paths, but I haven't been able to go out since I was sealed away last time."

"It's too dangerous outside right now. We'll take you out for some fresh air next time. We'll go out next time we come back."

Chiba reassured her, "But during this time, you must help me protect the forest. If any enemies invade, you must help them fight them off."

"Hmph, this is a trivial matter for me, but if you break your promise, I won't be polite."

Shukaku threatened "fiercely".

Chiba nodded with a smile.

By the time everything was arranged, it was already evening, and Chiba stood on a high place looking back.

Then he turned to leave.

Jiraiya and his group hadn't gone far.

If nothing unexpected happens...

By tomorrow, we will be able to catch up with Jiraiya and Naruto in the Land of Fire, and then separate a small Nine-Tails.

Practice makes perfect.

not to mention.

This was Chiba's third time.

He has complete confidence.

but.

As we prepared to leave the village...

"Chiba-kun!"

"Ok?"

Chiba turned around and saw Tenten panting heavily as she climbed up the mountain.

She wiped her sweat and smiled, "It's a good thing you didn't hide your breath, otherwise we really wouldn't have made it."

"Tian Tian, ​​what's wrong with you...?"

"Give!"

A bright smile appeared on Tian Tian's face every day.

Then she handed me a knife.

A short knife.

From its decorations to the knife itself, it is simple and unadorned, looking very ordinary and unremarkable, but it gives people a very calm feeling when held in the hand.

Tian Tian's forging technology has improved again!

"What is the name of this knife?"

"I long for you."

She murmurs softly every day.

"Thank you, Tian Tian, ​​I really like it!"

Chiba smiled. "Although I don't have any tangible gifts, I will remember my promise, and I will come back to see you all next Chunin Exams."

"Really?"

"Yes! This is my promise."

"Then I'll take it seriously. When you see me next time, you'll be amazed by my progress!"

Smile every day.

Chiba nodded and said, "I believe in your abilities. By the way, this is the key to my lab. I was planning to give it to you using the Flying Thunder God Technique after I left, but I'll just give it to you now that we've met."

"what?"

Tian Tian's face flushed red, clearly thinking of something else.

Chiba couldn't help but laugh and said, "You can come and go in my room as you please. There are a lot of documents in there that you can look at. They are all tagged and categorized, so they should be very easy to find."

"I will study hard."
