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

Another place.

Chiba was holding the black stick, trying to trace Nagato's location in reverse.

He has already sensed his location.

It's on a mountain outside Konoha, not too far from Konoha.

He instantly disappeared in that direction.

Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, before Chiba even got close, the trees in the forest suddenly split apart, transforming into pieces of paper.

Then——

"Yagyu Chiba, don't come any closer, or I'll use my ninjutsu to bury you."

Xiao Nan said calmly, "Although I am not as strong as you, there are countless explosive tags buried here, and I have set them up in advance. I can kill you through a series of explosions."

"Unfortunately, you can't."

Chiba shook his head. "I admire your determination and will, but to be honest, these explosive tags wouldn't kill me."

As he spoke, he casually tossed down four talismans.

"These talismans, combined with my space-time abilities, can be perfectly transferred. Even if I can't do that, I can still teleport away. You can't block space."

Chiba sighed, "This must be the ninjutsu you prepared for Obito, right?"

Who is Obito?

Xiao Nan frowned.

She vaguely guessed that it might be "Uchiha Madara".

She remained silent for a long while.

Chiba said, "I suppose you also felt something was wrong, which is why you prepared so many explosive tags in advance. After all, these things can't be made in a short time."

"so what?"

Konan replied, "I will do my best to do whatever Nagato and Yahiko want me to do."

She raised her hands, and leaves fluttered all around her.

but.

These leaves are actually just pieces of paper.

The spinning pieces of paper created a storm that enveloped everything around Chiba, with explosive tags mixed in among them.

To stop Chiba's Flying Thunder God, Konan even continuously used flying paper as a barrier to prevent it from getting through.

She had been thinking about this plan for a long time.

It can both block Chiba's Flying Thunder God Technique and prevent Chiba's shadow from penetrating through and forming characters directly on the outside.

Then——

boom!

There was a loud noise.

The flames exploded, and the large number of detonating tags simultaneously took effect.

Xiao Nan narrowed her eyes.

however.

The next instant, she flew even higher incredibly.

"How can it be!"

Chiba was completely unharmed and was strolling leisurely out of the explosion.

The opponent didn't seem to use Flying Thunder God directly, but four talismans were rotating around his body, which was very mysterious.

Xiao Nan couldn't tell the condition of the technique.

but.

She could feel it—

At this moment, there is an invisible barrier around Chiba, which makes him "disappear" from this world.

This……

How can it be!

Isn't this equivalent to using ninjutsu to achieve Obito's abilities?

"how did you do that!"

"It's very simple. The reason he has that ability is simply because he can travel freely between two dimensions, so your attacks won't hit him."

Chiba said, "I just used a similar principle to isolate myself from the outside world."

"Isn't there any way to crack it?"

Xiao Nan felt somewhat desperate.

If that's the case, wouldn't Chiba already be in an invincible position?

Chiba shook his head: "Of course there are still some. For example, you have enough explosive tags to exhaust my chakra. The same applies to dealing with him. But I'll remind you, the Uchiha have a technique that can bring the dead back to life at the cost of sacrificing their eyes."

"!!!"

Xiao Nan took a deep breath.

The Uchiha clan has this kind of ability?

She had no idea.

If I were facing Madara Uchiha or Obito, even if I used my carefully prepared ninjutsu, I might still face defeat.

Chiba walked slowly beneath her, heading towards where Nagato was.

Xiao Nan appeared in front of him in an instant, her eyes filled with wariness.

She was about to speak.

A soft, tired cough came from behind.

Immediately afterward, Nagato said wearily, "Konan, I'll deal with him."

Then, a figure emerged from the tree.

This is the appearance of a White Zetsu clone, but his body is covered in black rods—

A new animal realm!

Four more Paynes emerged from behind him.

Chiba glanced around.

Apart from the Heavenly Path, the others were all more or less damaged. The Hungry Ghost Path disappeared completely, while the Hell Path was left with only one hand.

The human realm is in its best condition.

but.

One reason is that the Human Path poses little threat to Jiraiya and Chiba in Sage Mode.

Do you need some time to recover?

"Need not!"

Nagato said in a cold voice.

Then, a black ball flew out from inside and was thrown into the sky.

Konan understood immediately and quickly used the paper to move Nagato and the Gedo Mazo from their original positions, sending them flying into the distance.

Yahiko clasped his hands together: "Drink!"

A loud shout.

A powerful suction force emanated from the black sphere above.

Chiba didn't resist, but looked up once, and then—

He threw a knife.

Under the influence of Sage Chakra, the black sphere in the distant sky was suddenly blasted apart by the flying blade.

Nagato's pupils contracted.

This……

His breath hitched.

The black sphere was shattered, and the suction force in the sky vanished instantly.

not only that.

Chiba instantly appeared beside the dissipating black sphere and then took out a black stick.

What is he going to do?

Nagato was puzzled.

"What on earth is this guy doing?"

"do not know."

Konan felt that compared to Chiba, they were like ignorant ninjas from a small village who had encountered a learned ninjutsu master, and they couldn't understand anything the master did.

The gap in knowledge was like a chasm, leaving them completely bewildered.

Nagato frowned.

Then, he sensed a powerful force emanating from Chiba.

follow closely.

Two balls appeared behind Chiba.

The Seeking the Way Jewel is complete!

The Seeking the Dao Jade danced in the air, eventually turning into two pools of black liquid that seeped into the surface of Ning Yan's twin blades.
