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

He glanced silently at the others.

He had seen information about these craftsmen in the secret service; they were all from impeccable backgrounds and very reliable, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Furthermore.

Just as Chiba said, what was drawn on the ninja tools was only a small part; without the cooperation of other barrier techniques, it would be completely ineffective, and...

He had a vague feeling that Chiba had something up his sleeve.

Chapter 67 It's a pity I was born more than ten years too late.

"They went to the ninja tool factory?"

"Yes."

"Hmm... Never mind them, how are ours doing?"

"One has been manufactured."

"it is good."

Danzo got up and headed towards the Hokage Building.

Upon reaching the office, he smiled slightly and pushed open the door.

"Hiruzen, one of the ninja tools has been copied."

"Oh? Which ninja tool?"

Danzo said coldly, "I may have some ulterior motives, but as I said, I am also doing this for Konoha."

A replica of the Peacock Twin Swords.

The third generation sighed inwardly, then placed the crystal ball out.

Danzo said calmly.

The third generation said calmly.

A moment later.

"Anything else?"

"Really? To be honest, I still don't quite agree with what you call the root, especially since someone said something like this recently."

Inside the crystal ball, Chiba had already set up his formation. Kakashi, Kazusa, and Tenten stood on the four sides with Chiba, each holding a barrier spell talisman.

Danzo remained silent for a moment, then said listlessly, "I didn't come here today to argue about these things."

"Of course."

The spell talismans in their hands are the gateways to amplify the absorption effect of the absorption barrier, and they are also adapted from the Iron Wall of Sealing.

How effective are ninja tools?

Danzo raised an eyebrow.

The four of them formed a hand seal together.

The shadow clone in the very center sat quietly.

Chiba forms hand seals.

There's nothing in Chiba's situation that Danzo can't see; everyone's interests are completely aligned on the matter of chakra ninja tools.

Even after so many years, this creation still stands among the top ninja tools in the ninja world, which speaks volumes about Seimei's talent.

The third generation was slightly surprised, while calmly wiping away the image on the crystal ball.

I had intended to bury it in the ground.

Three generations of reflections.

"Hehe, this is your work, isn't it? To have researched Wind Release to this extent, you haven't slacked off all these years."

Three generations sighed silently.

Really...

"Seventy to eighty percent."

Before long, the four people slowly channeled their chakra into the center.

"You're watching Chiba and the others, aren't you?"

Danzo handed over a blueprint.

It seems that this design was a temporary change.

Although the Iron Wall of Sealing is a sealing technique, its unique nature brings considerable benefits to Chiba.

"That's pretty good. That guy from the Craftsman Ninja Village is truly remarkable."

Right in the center is Kakashi's shadow clone.

“The roots do not represent darkness, but everything hidden beneath the earth that is being nurtured.”

Ever since Chiba found out, his technique seems to be getting more and more famous.

To make Konoha stronger!

The third generation took a look.

The third generation didn't speak, but simply stroked the crystal ball.

The third generation paused for a moment, then said, "The root is the foundation of everything; only with roots can there be stems, branches, and leaves."

Danzo nodded, then sneered, "He is talented, but it's wishful thinking to think he can stand tall in the ninja world with just that."

"let's start."

"My chakra has increased by 30%."

"Thirty percent? How are everyone's losses?"

Chiba frowned.

"Twenty percent."

"Forty percent." x2

Kakashi, Tenten, and Kazusa answered one by one.

Chiba nodded and explained his losses—

%.

However, he didn't tell the truth. In reality, Chiba's losses were only about 20%, and even considering his recovering physical and mental strength, it was probably less than 20%.

In other words, his chakra level is about the same as Kakashi's.

"That's a bit of a loss."

Chiba frowned.

His chakra combined with Kakashi's was 10% more than what the shadow clones obtained, plus the chakra from Tenten and Kazusa.

Although there aren't many of them, there certainly aren't few either.

The losses in the middle are a bit high.

"Chakra conversion and barrier maintenance themselves consume energy, so the conversion effect is already quite amazing."

Kakashi, however, was quite satisfied, thinking that Chiba was too ambitious.

Where is there a complete transformation?

He thought for a moment and said, "But it would be better to optimize it further if possible."

"By the way, is it possible to release chakra using ninja tools in reverse?"

"This is simple."

Chiba formed hand seals, and the absorption barrier quickly transformed into another mode. Then, streams of chakra dispersed from the shadow clones towards the four people.

After the portion was returned, the shadow clone returned.

Kakashi pondered for a moment and said, "We can optimize it in two ways: one is the internal structure, and the other is the barrier technique."

Chiba nodded.

Internally, shadow clones actively cooperate to guide the absorption of chakra.

It's not difficult.

"I'll think of a way."

"We could try nesting an absorption barrier inside to see if it requires more chakra to support the barrier or saves more chakra."

Chiba reminded him.

Kakashi paused for a moment, then sighed softly.

I finally managed to be proactive for once, and then this kid came up with another idea... It's really...

The blow was too great.

"Okay, let's try again."

……

"Hehe, this kid is just pushing the limits. Actually, I think the results are already pretty good."

The third generation chuckled and turned off the image on the crystal ball.

Danzo fell silent for a moment.

While it was gratifying that he and his subordinates had successfully imitated the Peacock Twin Swords, compared to Chiba's achievements, there seemed to be nothing to be proud of.

after all.

They were simply imitating, while the other side innovated on existing technology, coming up with new functions and applications.

A brand new ninja tool.
