Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 112 Improved Sage Mode

Chiga looked in the direction of the sound and found that it was Uchiha Setsune, the second elder of the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Setsuna's nephew, probably influenced by Uchiha Setsuna, is a true hawk, and currently the leading figure among the hawks.

Fugaku Uchiha frowned and asked, "Elder Sasuke, do you have anything to say? Wasn't investing in Minato already something we discussed a long time ago?"

"I don't object to winning over Minato, but with Chika already here, there's no need to send him another clansman."

Uchiha shook his head instantly and said.

"Yes, Chief Fugaku, our security force hasn't had any new recruits for a long time."

"Indeed, there have been quite a few troublemakers in the village recently, and we're a bit short-handed."

Several other Uchiha clan members, who were also hawks, echoed this sentiment.

Before Fugaku Uchiha could speak, Shichiha Uchiha continued, "Furthermore, our clan is, after all, the largest clan in Konoha. If we always let outsiders teach our clan's geniuses, other clans will think that our clan has declined and has no resources to cultivate the next generation of talent. Don't you think so, Clan Head Fugaku?"

Chiga now understood that Elder Sasuke's purpose was not Obito Uchiha at all. In fact, he didn't care at all whether Obito Uchiha would become Minato's disciple.

His real purpose was to prevent Uchiha Shisui from being handed over to outsiders again.

Both the hawks and doves value Shisui highly, and now he has become a bridge between Konoha and the Uchiha clan.

The other genius didn't need such an arrangement; he should have become a ninja devoted solely to his own clan.

Chiga understood this idea quite well.

People are not killed for their own sake.

However, Chiga couldn't guarantee whether Shisui would comply with Sasuke's wishes.

"I understand. I will not make the same arrangements for Chiga as I have for Shisui."

Fugaku Uchiha understood what Setsuna Uchiha was thinking and said something.

Having received a satisfactory answer, Uchiha stopped talking.

At this time, the dove faction still held the dominant position within the Uchiha clan.

Even the hawks dared not be too forceful or assertive.

Not long after the clan meeting began, the conversation turned to everyday family matters.

Chiga lost interest in listening any further and quietly slipped out the back door, arriving at the small grove on the outskirts of the Uchiha clan.

The small forest was now teeming with crows, a veritable plague.

If they hadn't known it was raised by their own clansmen, the Uchiha clan would have been prepared to clean it up.

As for Chika, a genius in the Uchiha clan, the clan tacitly agreed to let this grove become a habitat for crows.

It could be said that this grove of trees was already Chiga's private territory.

No one can enter the depths of this grove without disturbing the crows.

Upon seeing Chiga approach, the flock of crows cawed in unison, and then a raven feather flew out from the center of the forest. It landed on Chiga's shoulder and affectionately nuzzled her cheek with its head.

Chiga chuckled and patted Raven Feather's wing, then glanced at the large tree in front of her.

There were more than a dozen crows on each tree.

In the past year and a half, the crow flock has grown to more than 5,000.

"well"

Chiga sighed and said, "It seems that finding you a place in the spirit world needs to be put on the agenda."

The crow population will continue to grow, and this small grove will definitely not be enough, so it is necessary to find a spiritual realm for the crows to roost in.

But a spirit world without any spirit beasts is not so easy to find.

Moreover, reverse psychic abilities are very risky; no one knows what kind of world they will be transported to.

Chiga didn't dare to try it rashly.

Postponing this idea for now, Chiga said to Karasu, "Let's go gather volunteers."

Upon hearing this, Ya Yu remained silent for a moment, a hint of reluctance flashing in her intelligent eyes. Under Qian He's careful nurturing, Ya Yu had not only greatly increased in strength, but also in intelligence.

It knew that the volunteers Chiga mentioned were mostly doomed to never return, but this experiment was also an opportunity for their crow clan.

So it chirped in response to Chiga.

Then the forest fell silent for a moment, and then four or five crows flew out and landed in front of Chiga.

With the crows following behind him, Chiga slowly walked into the depths of the forest.

They arrived in front of a large tree, gently touched it, and broke the seal, opening a long corridor leading underground.

Below is a small room, and even Kushina didn't know that Chiga had such a small space.

Lighting the torches around us revealed a collection of stone statues, some completely transformed into frogs, others with the bodies of crows and the heads of frogs.

There were hundreds of them, all of strange shapes.

Looking at these stone statues, Chiga sighed.

His Sage Mode was taken from Jiraiya, making it a genuine Sage Mode from Mount Myōboku.

Unfortunately, Chiga didn't have eyeshadow like Naruto; she only had eyeshadow.

His mutation was even more severe than Jiraiya's; not only did his eyes turn into frog eyes, but his nose was covered in pimples, and even his tongue became a frog's tongue.

Although Chiga felt that this tongue would be very useful after marriage, he would have difficulty finding a girlfriend with his appearance in Sage Mode.

Simply put, ugly is unacceptable!

The Sage Mode of Mount Myōboku was created by adapting it to the body of a frog, while that of Ryūchi Cave is that of a snake.

Chiga thought that since frogs and snakes could enter Sage Mode, why couldn't crows?

Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?

With this in mind, Chiga began to develop ideas for improving Sage Mode.

All of these stone statues were failures, meaning that Chiga had already lost hundreds of crows with chakra.

Chiga stood still, absorbing natural energy for a few minutes, then suddenly opened his eyes. In an instant, his pupils turned into horizontal bars, and facial masks appeared around his eye sockets.

Sage Mode!

Let's begin!

Chiga commanded a crow to come in front of her, and then touched the crow's body with both hands.

Using their own bodies as a medium, they input natural energy into the crow's body.

This is the first step. He doesn't need the crow to enter Sage Mode. As long as the crow doesn't undergo any physical changes after absorbing natural energy, it's considered a success.

This is also the most difficult part. So far, Chiga has sacrificed hundreds of crows and still hasn't found a suitable path.

If it weren't for the feelings she had already developed with Karasuha, Chiga would really want Karasuha to give it a try.

A moment later, the crow trembled slightly, then its body began to swell, and soon it turned into a stone statue.

"Subject 114, failure! Next."

"Subject 115, failure! Next."

"Subject 116, no obvious changes in body. Successful?"
