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

Kazusa shook her head.

Do you also face similar difficulties?

Even if they split up, they can still learn a lot of ninjutsu, and they probably have Byakugan too, right?

They looked at Kakashi and Chiba, hoping they could answer, but Kakashi remained silent.

"Hyuga, I've heard that there's a big difference in treatment between the branch family and the main family, and that only one person in each generation of the main family will become the head of the branch family, while the other will become a member of the branch family."

I'm still puzzled.

Kakashi looked at Tenten and Kazusa, "Are you all full?"

Tian Tian immediately understood, her eyes widening in slight surprise.

Kakashi stood up, intending to leave, but a sidelong glance instantly invigorated him.

Is he talking about that guy?

Hyuga Neji...

"What's the difference between the main family and the branch family?"

Chiba did not answer immediately, but after a moment of consideration, he said, "I don't know either, but I have been studying sealing techniques recently and found that the book mentions a lot of curse seal-type sealing techniques."

She didn't know that.

"Um... wait a minute, you guys continue eating, I'm going to buy something."

"Never mind, let's wait here for a while."

Chiba shook his head, stopping Tenten from chasing after them.

He finished reading the three books on sealing techniques.

Looking at it again wouldn't make much sense, and now that he had some free time, he closed his eyes and visualized the "Bodhi seed" in his mind, intending to observe some changes in the patterns, but...

Chiba noticed that the previously faint pattern seemed to have become much deeper.

Is this the one that represents the chakra threads?

He was somewhat surprised, but then he realized what was happening.

Previously, he only taught the manipulation of chakra threads and ninja tools, but now he has developed the ability to "cut," so the potential reflected in the Bodhi seed has increased.

I didn't know it could be done like that.

Hmm, it seems these simple ninjutsu techniques can be put to good use.

There are some things you can't use yourself, but if you teach others to use them, it should be a valuable asset.

Thinking of this, Chiba took out his notebook and began to write.

Every day, I squint and want to come closer to see what's going on, but I'm also worried that I might see something confidential.

Ninjutsu is a rather private matter.

"Come over if you want to see, don't hesitate, it's not some important new technique."

Chiba almost laughed.

Every day, she excitedly came over, and then saw the words "changes in the properties of silk threads" written in the notebook. After thinking for a moment, she understood what Chiba meant.

"Can chakra threads change their properties?"

"why not?"

Chiba countered with a question.

Tian Tian was speechless for a moment, and after a long while, she finally managed to say, "Then it probably can't be used for every type of chakra nature, right?"

"Of course. After thinking about it, the most suitable is Wind Release Chakra, followed by Lightning Release and Fire Release."

"What about water escape?"

“Water Release is also an option, but it’s essentially a technique of the Second Hokage, so it’s not very meaningful.”

Chiba explained.

Tian Tian nodded thoughtfully.

"I've heard that Iwagakure also possesses two special Earth Release nature transformations. If we were to incorporate these nature transformations into chakra threads, it might have a remarkable effect."

After finishing his meal, Chiba added another sentence.

I thought about it for a long time, and finally shook my head in distress.

These are all good ideas.

but.

Her highest chakra affinity is Earth Release, and ninjutsu is only supplementary; who knows when she'll develop a second nature transformation?

It seems I'm not meant to have it.

"Don't overthink it. The chakra threads are too small. The only truly useful ones are those that can be incorporated into Wind Release. Lightning Release and Fire Release are mostly for auxiliary purposes."

Chiba comforted her.

"Because Wind Release: Nature Transformation is better?"

Kazusa asked.

"Cut."

"Understood. If I'm going to develop a second type of nature transformation, I'll definitely strive for Wind Release!"

Tian Tian made a decision immediately.

Regarding the changes in nature, Chiba could only offer some suggestions, but there was little he could do, and besides, that wasn't his ambition.

Ninjutsu has its limits.

Unless it's a bloodline limit, how strong can it be compared to Sage Mode?

The main purpose of writing this is to provide a direction for the development of chakra threads, so that those people can help me develop and create them. It can also be considered a small experiment by Chiba.

Will it work...?

It's hard to say right now, but it won't take much effort. We'll just have to try our luck, no matter what.

Kakashi returned quickly.

He returned refreshed, much like that feeling.

On the way, Chiba asked in a low voice, "Teacher, did you buy the new book?"

"No, Jiraiya-sama hasn't released a new book yet, he's still... cough cough, why am I telling you this? Kids, don't ask me anything!"

Kakashi rebuked him righteously.

Chiba chuckled.

I don't know who it was, but they were reading in front of Kazusa Tsukiko, completely absorbed and didn't even notice. If I hadn't reminded them, Kazusa probably would have read several more chapters.

Kakashi blushed slightly, but his face was covered by a mask, so no one else could see it.

After a moment, he said in a low voice, "Although I didn't buy the book, I did buy a piece of merchandise, which is said to be a violent side story."

"It seems like the publisher got the authorization to write it themselves, right?"

Chiba glanced at it.

Kakashi coughed lightly and said, "That's not important."

"hehe."

"..."

This kid is not cute at all.

Ok.

Cute is definitely not a word that describes him; this guy is far more skilled at killing than other people his age.

Kakashi secretly cursed.

No one needed an escort; relying solely on the speed of ninjas, it wouldn't take long to return to Konoha. By evening, they saw the gates of Konoha.

"Finally home!"

Tenten stretched and then asked with great enthusiasm, "Kakashi-sensei, is there nothing else today?"

"Well, there's nothing for today, but come to Training Ground 25 tomorrow. Kazusa is the same. As for Chiba, it's up to you. After all, tomorrow's main focus is on teaching ninjutsu."

Kakashi is rarely serious.

"I have something to do tomorrow morning, so please bring some special military rations over in the afternoon."

"Alright."

Kakashi walked through the gate, signed his name, filled out a form under the guidance of the Chunin at the entrance, and then waved his hand, "Disperse."

"Yes!"

In the blink of an eye, only Kakashi and two Chunin remained at the door.

Chapter 37 Danzo: Want to change the stage?

The next day, at the Hokage Building.

"Chiba, I heard the details from Kakashi. You performed very well. It seems that my decision to let you directly take on C-rank missions was the right one."

Three generations were all smiles.

There was some internal resistance to allowing Chiba and his group to directly reach Rank C, but the Third Hokage overruled the objections and made an exception for them, which is how the decision was finally made.

Therefore, their performance truly made three generations proud.

The division of labor is orderly and the cooperation is appropriate.

This kind of squad has basically reached the standard of a formal squad.

"I just did what I thought I should do."
