The sun hangs high in the sky.

Asma stood carefully on the lake, carrying a basket on his back, using pliers to pick up the floating trash and throw it into the basket.

"Damn it! This is nothing like the ninja life I imagined!"

He said through gritted teeth, turning his head to glare fiercely at Uchiha Mo, who was looking at the scroll under the tree by the lake.

"Stop complaining, Asuma. I asked my father, and he said that genin need to accumulate a certain number of low-level missions before they can officially take on missions of C rank or higher."

Kurenai carefully held the can between her fingers, then skillfully tossed it, bending slightly to the side, and the can landed directly in the basket.

Nearly a month has passed since the formation of Class 8. During this time, all the tasks they have encountered have been D-level missions, such as cleaning up trash on the lake or helping others find their pets.

Fortunately, Mo had also taught the three of them several training methods to improve their basic ninja skills during the mission, so Kurenai Yuhi and Hayate Gekko were able to remain patient and not become too anxious.

"I think it's just that Teacher Mo is lazy! I heard Kakashi and the others took on a C-rank mission and went out last week!"

Asma snorted and, seeing that Mo hadn't noticed her, stuck out her tongue and made a face.

However, at that very moment, he seemed to sense something and suddenly turned his head.

"Huh?!"

Asuma's heart skipped a beat, and his chakra became disordered, causing him to fall directly into the water.

Mo withdrew his gaze and refocused his attention on the scroll, ignoring Asuma.

In the course of a month, Mo had thoroughly mastered Kakashi's Chidori Scroll, and since the Chidori itself was not a secret in the original work, he spent more time perfecting the technique.

"That's about it."

Mo rolled up the scroll, stood up, and his mind began to race.

"The key to Chidori's external appearance lies in its ability to sustain the speed of its thrusts and generate powerful chakra through physical activity, while its core essence is an extreme form of Lightning Release, utilizing the characteristics of lightning..."

  

As he pondered, Mo raised his hands.

Chou-mao-shen!

After completing the three hand seals, Mo grasped his right wrist with his left hand, and powerful chakra frantically gathered in his palm.

"Chidori!"

"Hey——!"

After a sharp, unusual sound like a thousand birds singing in unison, a burst of intense white light appeared on Mo's right palm, followed by a flurry of electric arcs that hissed and crackled.

The two people on the lake and Asuma, who had just climbed out of the water, immediately turned their gazes. Shisui, who was practicing his sword nearby, also suddenly felt a strong sense of threat, abruptly stopped, and quickly jumped back to create distance.

As he watched the lightning flash in Mo's hand, a bead of cold sweat trickled down Zhi Shui's forehead.

"What a dangerous technique!"

Chidori, an A-rank ninjutsu, is also the most powerful lightning release ninjutsu that Uchiha Mo currently possesses.

In reality, the rank of a ninjutsu only represents its difficulty of learning. Although the power of most ninjutsu is proportional to the difficulty of learning, Chidori, although it is an A-rank ninjutsu, is no less powerful than some ultimate ninjutsu, and its practicality is the best among ninjutsu.

Uchiha Mo turned to look at the big tree behind him, and then, like lightning, thrust out his right palm.

"Pfft!"

With a crisp, unusual sound, Mo's entire forearm passed through the thick tree instantly, as if a sharp blade were piercing through tofu, without encountering any resistance!

Immediately afterwards, lightning exploded, causing secondary damage, and the tree collapsed with a crash.

The onlookers' eyes widened in surprise. The three members of Class 8, distracted, all fell into the water, while Shisui approached excitedly.

"Nii-san, what kind of technique is this? Can I learn it?"

Shisui's chakra natures are fire, wind, lightning, and yin, and Chidori can be said to be a technique tailor-made for the Uchiha clan...

Mo flicked his right hand, looked at Zhiping, and calmly replied, "No, let's master everything you need to learn first."

As the saying goes, "Don't bite off more than you can chew," and Shisui's core fighting style is the Body Flicker Technique, which contradicts the requirement of the Chidori Technique to maximize its power through a thrust, making it unsuitable for him.

Perhaps many variations of Chidori could be incorporated into Shisui's system, but before Shisui's combat abilities are fully developed and he has his own combat awareness, it would not be a good thing to hand over Chidori to him.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo ignored the dejected Shisui, turned around and stepped onto the lake, pulling the three members of Class 8 out of the water and throwing them onto the shore.

He stood by the lake, looking down at the three members of Class 8 lying on the ground.

"Meet at the training ground the day after tomorrow. I'll be taking on a C-rank mission that you've all been waiting for. If you don't satisfy me by then, you'll be spending a month picking up trash."

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Mo used the Body Flicker Technique to disappear from the spot. Shisui quickly followed, leaving only the three members of Team 8 lying on the ground.

……

After returning home, Uchiha Mo put his things away and quickly focused his attention on the control panel.

After half a month of training with Chidori, Mo's proficiency in Lightning Release increased by nearly 4%, and Green Baby's unlock rate also reached 10.82% + 16.23%. If the Chidori system is further developed and improved, his proficiency in Lightning Release will likely be the first to reach the 20% threshold.

Once the Thunderstorm is unlocked and its core lightning manipulation ability is obtained, Mo will be able to start developing his own bloodline limit. However, these are still far away for him. His immediate priority is to complete Granny Cat's mission and obtain the Kusanagi Sword.

With that thought in mind, Uchiha Mo left a note instructing Shisui to cook, and then left home without stopping to head to the mission hall to select a mission.

The mission location must be chosen in the Land of Birds to facilitate Mo's investigation of the underground black market merchants. Secondly, the mission difficulty cannot be too low. Because Mo just demonstrated Chidori in front of Team 8, and considering the information he inadvertently revealed to Kakashi earlier, this is the perfect opportunity for Mo to clear his name regarding his fire control abilities.

Therefore, the mission must have enough twists and turns to give Mo the opportunity to demonstrate this ability in front of everyone.

Uchiha Mo was very fast, arriving at his destination in less than fifteen minutes. He stepped into the hall, his eyes scanning the surrounding task boards.

"The Land of Waves... The Land of Hot Springs..."

Uchiha Mo had rather strict requirements. Although he scanned all the tasks on his task list, he couldn't find one that was relatively satisfactory.

There were a few missions from the Bird Kingdom that did meet Mo's requirements, but they were all classified as B-level missions due to their difficulty, which their team was not currently able to take on.

Mo frowned, just as he was about to use a B-rank mission to negotiate with the Third Boss, when a hand suddenly landed on his shoulder.

He turned his head with a cold brow, and a blond-haired man with a sunny smile entered Mo's field of vision.
