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

"understood."

Chiba explained with a smile.

"Yes, your Corpse Bone Vein has the ability to resist it, and with the effect of the sealing technique, it has achieved the current situation. Therefore, its position has shifted from the original position and is closer to the ribs."

but now.

Will the Raikage really not kill Might Guy when he sees him?

"Of course, not everyone can do it. It has very strict conditions. The first one is to have enough ability to fight against the first generation of cells."

"No, we still need to observe for now."

Chiba shook his head.

That's the difference.

Kimimaro nodded.

It's incredible that Hashirama Senju's power can be transformed into a cursed seal.

Chiba stood up.

"it is good."

Chiba didn't say anything, and Kimimaro hadn't even noticed yet.

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Is this power available to everyone, or...?"

Chiba could hear them shouting slogans like "passion" and "youth" from afar.

Kimimaro pondered for a moment: "My Corpse Bone Pulse?"

Chiba shook his head. "Your physical condition is too poor. One curse seal is not enough to solve it. For now, let's use the curse seal to help your body adapt to it, and then observe your body's condition."

How long has it been?

……

After leaving the Anbu, Chiba went to find Might Guy.

My current curse mark is a few inches off from what it was before.

Kimimaro, who had participated in the training squad of the Dark Guard, was known by many people in the Dark Guard, and they all had a good impression of him.

Kimimaro remained in the Dark Guard.

He fell silent for a moment.

Then you can proceed to the next course of treatment.

Compared to before, the power on the cursed seal made him feel warm as water, like a hot spring nourishing his entire body.

Forget it.

Even if the Raikage went all out, he couldn't possibly kill Might Guy.

Another question Chiba was considering was whether or not to go down and find Kai now.

After thinking for a while, he decided to focus on perfecting the Chakra Armor and Bone Strengthening Technique first, and then discuss other things after Might Guy finished his training.

otherwise.

It's also inconvenient for Atsi to be on the side.

As evening approached, only Might Guy and Rock Lee remained. Chiba deactivated his chakra shield and continued to wait there.

A moment later, Matt Kay said goodbye to Lee.

Then...

In a flash, he arrived at Chiba's location.

"Chiba, were you waiting for me?"

"Yes, Professor Kai, shall we go to the shop downstairs and talk while we eat?"

"Well, that's fine too."

Matt Kai was actually quite hungry.

Although I ate some Life Curry in between, it's already evening and I've used up most of my energy.

He and Chiba jumped off the building.

Then they went into the noodle shop.

After ordering a bowl of ramen, Kai looked at Chiba and asked, "What's up?"

"There might be an exchange with Kumogakure later. Would you be interested in sparring with the Raikage or anyone else?"

"Raikage?"

Might Guy was somewhat surprised, but after thinking for a moment, he began to understand Chiba's plan.

Is he being asked to show off his physical skills?

After a moment's thought, Kess leaned closer and whispered, "What spell should I use?"

"You can use whatever you like. Any technique is fine. The main thing is to showcase the strength of Konoha's taijutsu and let the Raikage see the exquisiteness and power of our taijutsu."

Chiba smiled. "Of course, if you have already mastered the chakra armor I mentioned earlier, that would be even better. The Raikage and the others are definitely most concerned about that."

"Chakra armor... I understand."

Matt Kee understood.

The strongest and most famous aspects of Kumogakure are the Third Raikage's strongest defense and strongest attack.

Nowadays, no one has mastered the Four-Finger Split Technique, but the Lightning Release Armor has been passed down to this day, becoming an unavoidable topic when outsiders mention the Hidden Cloud Village.

If this aspect can be improved, the Hidden Cloud Village will definitely be the most excited and anxious.

Kai cleared his mind and nodded, saying, "Okay."

"Alright, I'll tell Lady Tsunade that later, and you can go up and give the Raikage a performance."

The two looked at each other, then chuckled.

After a series of combined attacks, Chiba no longer believed that the Hidden Cloud Village could hold back.

Back in the Sand Village, after seeing the puppet body technique, they left happily. Although there was a minor incident where Rasa vomited blood, the ending was ultimately a happy one.

Both sides can basically accept it, and there will be no situation where one side wins alone.

The transaction with Kumogakure will likely be similar, but Konoha will definitely profit more.

after all.

The Hidden Cloud Village acquired ninjutsu that the Hidden Leaf Village already possessed, while the Hidden Leaf Village gained knowledge that the Hidden Cloud Village lacked; thus, one village gained at the expense of the other…

Konoha will only get stronger.

It all depends on what the Hidden Cloud Village thinks.

At this moment, the Raikage was still arguing with Tsunade in the conference room.

"These conditions are outrageous!"

"If Chiba hadn't intervened that day, Hidan might have already escaped. You're all afraid of his immortality and evil magic, aren't you?"

"Hmph, I saw through his abilities. I was planning to retaliate, but Chiba from your village made his move first."

"Shameless old thief!"

"Hmph, what's so shameless about that? I've seen through his tricks."

Lei Ying snorted coldly, shamelessly refusing to back down.

Tsunade sneered, "Fine, if that's how you put it, I'll test you. How do you break his technique?"

"Would I tell you?"

"Shameless old thief, get out!"

Tsunade slammed her hand on the table.

The Fourth Raikage blushed. He didn't want to be so shameless, but when it came to the village's interests, who would back down?

He didn't want to be accused of selling out the village.

The Raikage left.

Koharu and Homura just came in from outside, looking at Tsunade as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.

Tsunade was still cursing under her breath.

but.

A minute later, she looked out the window and then smiled.

"Tsunade, what's wrong?"

Xiaochun, who was switching dorm rooms, was a little confused.

Even though the negotiations weren't going well, why did Tsunade look so satisfied?

Tsunade chuckled and said, "His reaction was within our expectations, but given the Raikage's personality, he'd rather be scolded by me than not want to talk, which shows he's very interested in Hidan's secret."

"Well, that's true."

Mito Monohan nodded.

If they weren't interested, they would have left in a huff long ago.

Tsunade said, "The Raikage is unwilling to let go because he doesn't see the benefits of cooperation. As long as we show him the benefits of cooperation and ninjutsu exchange, this peace talk will make progress."

"..."

Utane Koharu and Mitokado En looked at each other.

They had previously worried that Tsunade's excessive emotional outburst might ruin the important matter between Konoha and Kumogakure, but now it seems that Tsunade fully understands what she is doing.

even.

Tsunade and Chiba's considerations were even more comprehensive than theirs.

On the contrary, their thinking was out of sync with the situation. If they had followed their ideas, they might have fallen into the Raikage's trap or been unable to find a way out.
