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

Chiba waved his hand dismissively, not taking it to heart.

Might Guy laughed heartily, "Ninjutsu like the Yin Seal is extremely difficult to master. Ordinary people simply cannot learn it. The fact that you can develop it for other uses makes you a genius among geniuses!"

"It's nothing, just a very simple improvement."

In comparison.

Kai felt much more at ease, chuckled, and seemed a little embarrassed.

"Speaking of which, I think this technique might be more suitable for Kakashi. Well, although I feel it's great too, he might be a better fit."

This is true.

Might Guy was just thinking about it; even if he were to actually learn the Yin Seal, he wouldn't be able to. The same goes for Little Lee.

Chiba had considered it, but after thinking it over, he still felt that the Eight Gates Formation wasn't quite a good fit for this kind of ninjutsu, and besides, it would be bad for Might Guy and Rock Lee to master the Yin Seal...

Chiba pondered for a moment and said, "I understand. I have another way to do this."

Sage Mode...

"..."

That's really asking too much of people.

Strictly speaking, Kakashi's chakra level is not low.

He stretched his muscles and bones.

He also developed several smaller-scale Yin Seals for acupoints. Although the amount of chakra stored would not be much, it was still much better than nothing.

Sage Mode requires a lot of chakra.

"Has Kakashi-sensei not learned Sage Mode?"

"It's also possible that the violent chakra instantly broke the seal."

because……

Kakashi's chakra reserves are renowned throughout the village.

Among Jonin, Kakashi's chakra reserves are neither high nor low, but anyone with a high-energy-consuming and continuously energy-draining Sharingan would find their chakra reserves underwhelming.

"You can't say that. Well, okay, it would be very suitable for you."

but.

Matt Kai was halfway through his sentence when he realized the other person's completely abnormal comprehension and numerous creative ideas, and his lips twitched. He immediately changed his words.

He taught Kakashi Sage Mode, and Kakashi should have been researching and learning during this time, so he should have made some breakthroughs by now.

The former is a battery that must be fully charged before it can be used, and it must be used up in one go.

He couldn't suppress his athletic instincts.

Coincidentally.

Before seeing Chiba off, Kai still thought of his eternal nemesis.

During this time, Chiba did not let up on the Yin Seal.

Chiba paused, taken aback.

The difference between the Cursed Seal and Sage Mode is quite significant.

It doesn't seem that hard to learn, right?

Kai coughed lightly and said, "It's not a problem with Sage Mode. You know about Kakashi's chakra too."

"Very good."

The Yin seal on the forehead also stores some chakra.

of course.

Simultaneously.

Due to the unique nature of the head, the Yin seal on the forehead is just ordinary chakra, but it can still be a significant aid in battle.

but.

It's already late today, Chiba plans to go tomorrow.

……

The next day, Chiba found Kakashi at his usual training spot.

"Chiba?"

Kakashi paused for a moment, then smiled and asked, "Did you get into some trouble outside, or did you make some big gain?"

"Hehe, we have them all."

Chiba felt more relaxed with Kakashi than with Tsunade, and the two chatted and laughed together.

Kakashi quickly learned the general situation.

Chiba has fought against the Akatsuki!

This surprised him a little.

The second is.

He glanced at the distance and was utterly shocked—

That thing actually had nine tails.

Also.

The Nine-Tails is actually willing to help Chiba!

“Hey, one-eyed guy, I’m not here to help him, I just don’t like those guys. Don’t get me wrong.”

Nine-Tailed Fox jumped out and roared.

As a nine-tailed fox, it possesses some unique sensory abilities.

such as.

Perceiving good and evil, and things like gazes.

It didn't know what Kakashi was thinking, but it certainly wasn't anything good.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that."

Kakashi readily admitted defeat.

It's best not to provoke the Nine-Tails since they've finally agreed to be friendly.

Chiba smiled and said, "Killing that tattooed guy was pretty satisfying. Next time I have the chance, I'll kill a few more."

"It depends on my mood."

The Nine-Tailed Fox's clone answered.

Kakashi seemed to be deep in thought.

It seems...

The consciousness and personality of this Nine-Tails clone are somewhat different from those of the original.

Chiba's influence?

Understood.

Kakashi knew that Chiba possessed mental ninjutsu, so he mentally put himself in Chiba's shoes and vaguely understood Chiba's plan.

However, the Nine-Tails' perception ability had alerted him, so he stopped thinking about the Nine-Tails and focused on himself.

"You heard from Kai that I didn't succeed in my training, so you came to check on me?"

"You can't say that. With your chakra reserves, unless you're willing to extract your Sharingan and use it separately like I do, it's very difficult for you to truly activate Sage Mode."

Chiba paused for a second before adding, "That might not be the most objective way to put it. To be precise, you might only last two or three seconds before collapsing."

"Yes, your guess is correct."

Kakashi said helplessly, "I briefly entered Sage Mode once, for about a second, and then I immediately came out."

"what reason?"

Chiba's expression immediately turned serious.

In that state, Kakashi must have been more aware of the changes in his own body, so he exited the state beforehand.

Kakashi pondered for a moment and said, "One is that I lack chakra, and the other is my eyes."

"Pupil power?"

"Correct."

Kakashi nodded.

He explained his situation at the time, and Chiba roughly understood.

Kakashi's problem is...

His Sharingan is not his own, therefore his spirit, eye power, and so on are quite special.

The biggest difference in the Sage Mode of the Fire Temple Style is that one's mental state must be stable. When Kakashi has enough chakra, he can suppress the influence of his eye power.

but.

As his chakra decreases, the effects of this will gradually become apparent, forcing him to exit Sage Mode.

This is the real difficulty Kakashi encountered.

Chiba smiled.

"Have you practiced sealing ninjutsu?"

"of course."

Kakashi nodded. "You want me to practice the Yin Seal? But Lady Tsunade said that technique is generally more suitable for women to practice."

"Lady Tsunade's Yin Seal is indeed like that. Mine is an improved version, and it's not just in the space between the eyebrows."

Chiba emitted a sound, and detected that the sound was different through his senses.
