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

If Kirigakure can take the Byakugan as a trophy, Konoha can naturally take the Three-Tails and the Executioner's Blade as its own trophies.

This is the choice Chiba gave to Mei Terumi.

She cannot escape her predicament unless she is willing to relinquish her glare.

Tailed Beasts...

The Hidden Mist Village might not be very enthusiastic, but they definitely want to take back the Executioner's Blade.

Chiba fiddled with the pen.

Now it's just a matter of waiting for Mei Terumi and Kirigakure to make a decision. No matter which choice Konoha makes, they won't lose too much. They've already taken advantage of both the Executioner's Blade and the Tailed Beasts.

Konoha has already profited once.

This is the second time we've made a profit, and no matter what, it's a huge windfall.

After returning, Mei Terumi immediately sent the message back to Kirigakure, and the Konoha ninja crows did not intercept it.

Such a size...

In a sense...

The fifth active ingredient unique to the Qiu Dao family!

Chiba pondered for a long time, then took out his notebook and wrote down his thoughts, even modifying how to perfectly utilize the Akimichi clan's butterfly transformation technique.

Has the Akimichi clan discovered a secret technique for calorie control?

Halfway through writing, a hearty laugh came from outside.

Many internal organs require fat for protection. Converting body fat means removing that protection, making it easy to cause self-injury in combat.

Ding put down the wine, then picked up a jar next to him. "I know you can't drink alcohol. This is some medicinal tea I bought from a Nara family. It's just a small token of my appreciation!"

According to the original plan, after being forcibly taken away by Tsunade for negotiations, Chiba was to return to his own little plot of land to continue his research, striving to further utilize the tailed beast chakra and cultivate the counterfeit divine tree as soon as possible.

The Calorie Secret Technique's feedback enhancement!

"Chiba, I heard you've been staying in the village lately. Why haven't you come to my house for meat? Have you made a lot of money lately and don't care about my meager food anymore?"

"Congratulations on your breakthrough, Senior Ding!"

Akimichi Choza strode quickly into the house from outside.

The specific type is still unknown. He has only roughly determined the direction based on his perception. To truly explore the specific abilities to enhance, it may have to wait until further promotion.

This thing might be able to be combined with the Breathing Activation Technique to allow the Akimichi clan to reach the fifth level of activation.

He hurried home, tried it out in the yard, and then confirmed—

Choji is right.

"Hahaha, it's not a breakthrough, it's just that we've figured out the idea you gave us before, and now we've completely mastered the secret technique."

They're not fat, they're just a bit plump.

Chiba took it.

"What's the effect now?"

He arrived with a pot of wine, a can of tea, and a little meat.

Back when we were in Konoha, we would occasionally go to Akimichi's house for barbecue and exchange taijutsu tips. Now, Choza comes here just as casually.

Chiba gave a thumbs up.

Who wouldn't exclaim in admiration upon seeing it?

Normally, who would imagine that Akimichi Choza is in such a state beneath his fat body?

While the original version's ability to conjure butterfly wings is undeniably stunning, its effects and side effects are also extremely strong, making it completely unnecessary.

During this time, the Akimichi clan had been quiet, and he thought they hadn't made any progress. He never expected that they were holding back a big move.

but.

Ding Zuo is completely different now. He is very strong and looks like an incredibly burly man with a very intimidating physique.

Chiba's inspiration flowed like a spring.

but.

Chiba was greatly surprised when he saw it.

This technique is extremely powerful, requiring the assistance of the Akimichi family's ancestral secret medicine to convert the body's stored fat into chakra, instantly unleashing tremendous power.

The art of butterfly transformation.

This is something similar to a Yin Seal, but the Akimichi clan's method of using it is too brutal, and the conversion of a large amount of fat at once will definitely bring great side effects.

Most of the harm suffered by the Akimichi clan from taking the secret medicine stems from this.

Chiba then took out a grill from home.

Also.

Upon leaving the Hokage Building, an unexpected enhancement feedback caused him to change his plans.

This feedback reinforcement should be physical reinforcement.

Converting body fat is too extreme.

Chiba was somewhat surprised.

Ding Zuo glanced at it a few times and said while preparing, "We have already popularized the Butterfly Transformation Technique, but we still can't solve the problem of side effects. I'm afraid we can only keep it as a secret technique."

"I just happened to have this idea in mind, would you like to take a look?"

"what?"

Ding Zuo came over with a kitchen knife. He reached out to look inside, but seeing his hands covered in grease, he forced himself to resist the urge and instead observed from a distance.

After watching for a while, Ding Zuo could hardly contain his excitement.

indeed.

Their butterfly transformation technique isn't a pill, so it shouldn't be used to directly unleash everything; instead, it should be seen as an extra reserve.

Activating it at crucial moments can make you stronger.

"That makes sense. I... I'm so stupid, I didn't even think of that."

Dingza was extremely excited and hurriedly urged Chiba to turn the page.

Chiba turned to the next page.

These are some ideas on how to use extra chakra.

Ding nodded repeatedly as he watched.

The released chakra is incorporated into the chakra armor circulation throughout the body, making the body's defense stronger. Moreover, as the body fat decreases, the chakra armor also needs to change its operating mode...

Makes sense!

As expected of Chiba!

"Hey, let's finish cooking before we watch this. Good Chiba, good brother, you're like a brother to me!"

"Ahem, Choji-senpai, Choji and I are from the same generation."

"What's the big deal? Let's each talk about our own issues."

Ding laughed heartily, feeling extremely happy.

He approached Chiba hoping for Chiba's help, but he didn't expect that before he could even ask, Chiba had already solved the problem.

what is this?

They treat us like brothers!

Akimichi Choza pondered how to repay her, but after much thought, he couldn't figure out what Chiba needed.

Techniques like this...

Chiba's physique is no match for it!

Dingza scratched his head in frustration, then suddenly remembered Chiba's original intention in wanting them to develop the Butterfly Transformation Technique—

This gives even ordinary ninjas a trump card.

A weakened version of the Breathing Activation Technique, similar to the first activation technique, is now widespread among the Chunin level in Konoha, with many Chunin having obtained the weakened version of the technique.

Although the techniques of butterfly transformation vary, one can still refer to them to create a beginner level.

Thinking of this, Dingza quickly finished preparing the ingredients and said while grilling the meat, "Chiba, I'll show you the technique later. You have a lot of ideas, so help me think of ways to reduce its effects, difficulty, and side effects."

"You want to take it out?"

"This thing is powerful, but it's not the foundation of our Akimichi clan. It's fine to take it out. As Konoha grows stronger, the Akimichi clan will also grow stronger."

Ding Zuo understood it very well.

A family and a village are not one entity, but they are interconnected. If you separate yourself too much, you will eventually be abandoned by the village.

Ding Zuo flipped the meat over, chuckled, and said, "I'm not like that stubborn old man, Hiashi, who still doesn't want to change things even after all that, clinging to the things of his ancestors."

"Brother, you're taking it easy!"

Chiba gave a thumbs up.

He was naturally happy to accept Ding Zuo's offer.

The more the calorie secret spread, the more reinforcement feedback he received.

"It's good that you're willing to open up. Ninjutsu needs constant innovation so that our village and clan can grow stronger step by step. Sticking to the old ways will only lead to stagnation."

Chiba smiled. "As for the weakening technique..."

"have a thought?"

"The average person doesn't have as much body fat as your family, so some restrictions and trade-offs need to be made. As for side effects, limiting internal fat is sufficient."

Chiba pointed to a piece of text.

After pondering for a long time, Dingza slowly nodded: "I don't know much about these medical ninjutsu, but I'm sure I can't go wrong by listening to you!"
