Pupet Master in Konoha

However, the eight eyebrows of the four shadow clones in front of me are still black and thick, which looks particularly funny on his handsome face...

Just in case, Hideki ran to the bathroom and looked in the mirror.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was still incredibly handsome.

Fortunately, I didn't get infected with some strange thick eyebrow virus because I'm often with Senior Dai.

The reason must be the quarter of chakra that Senior Dai contributed to the mixed chakra used in the Shadow Clone Technique.

This is a very interesting phenomenon...

When Senior Dai transferred chakra into the capacitor, he clearly did not issue any specific instructions.

However, the shadow clone mixed with his chakra showed some of Dai's physical characteristics and personality traits.

This means that the chakra itself may carry at least part of the genetic information and memory data of the original body...

With just a little thought, Hideki came up with a bunch of cool ways to take advantage of this phenomenon, and he couldn't wait to conduct in-depth research.

But he quickly calmed down.

There is too little data now, and it is not certain whether it can be reproduced. There is no point in speculating too much.

Even if it can be reproduced, this topic already involves the essence of chakra.

My current level is still a little insufficient, and if I really force myself to study, I will only get half the result with twice the effort.

So Hideki could only suppress his curiosity temporarily and focus his attention back on brainstorming.

"Whatever. Anyway, he just has thicker eyebrows and a hot-blooded personality. It shouldn't have much impact on the operation of the brainstorming technique."

After comforting himself, Hideki quickly walked out of the bathroom.

"This hat is mine!"

"No, I touched it first, so it should belong to me!"

As soon as Hideki came out, he found that the shadow clones were fighting for the thinking hat, and it was indeed no different from usual.

But after taking a few steps, Hideki's face suddenly turned dark again.

"Stop it, stop stealing the green hat!"

The four shadow clones who were holding onto a corner of the green thinking hat stopped their actions upon hearing this, and stared at the hint of green and fell into deep thought.

Yes, why should I compete to wear the green hat?

When everyone thought of this, they immediately became humble.

"Hey, this is your green hat."

"No, it's your green hat."

Hideki's real body held his forehead in frustration.

No matter how much you push it away, in the end, won't I be the one to bear all the responsibilities?

After stopping everyone's antics, Hideki first made sure that everyone's thinking was normal and they were not too affected by Dai's chakra.

Only then did he feel relieved, and he and his shadow clones put on their hats and sat cross-legged on the floor in a pentagonal formation.

The topic this time is to integrate what you have learned before and create your own unique fighting style.

In order to make the analysis as objective as possible, this time Hideki did not choose the red hat representing emotion, but chose the other five hats.

After he was ready, Hideki raised his sword in front of his chest and said,

"Brainstorming Technique: Revised."

The next moment, the gems on the thinking hat shot out blue chakra lines, connecting with the other hats to form a pentagram shape.

The shadow clones also tilted their heads back, their eyes white as they fell into a state of deep thought.

White Hat Hideki was in charge of organizing the information and began to present everything Hideki had learned throughout his life like a revolving lantern.

Before returning to Konoha, Hideki adopted a dirty fighting style of avoiding confrontation with the enemy if possible.

Hide underground through the Earth Dragon Hiding Technique, lock onto the enemy through the Spider Sensing Technique and Radar Sensing Technique, and then attack the enemy from a distance using various small puppets or dummy puppets.

Thanks to this set of smooth combos, Hideki was able to gradually come to the fore and was promoted to a special jonin.

However, it is not difficult to see the limitations of this tactic.

Although hiding underground is safe, there will inevitably be delays when controlling the puppet, and the lethality is insufficient.

The sneak attack failed, and it was not easy to stop the enemy from escaping.

With his promotion to Special Jonin, the enemies Hideki faces become more powerful.

Therefore, there would often be an awkward situation where neither he nor his enemies could do anything to the other. It could be said that the first generation's goal was a 50-50 situation.

But this is already good enough.

This is because once he encounters a jonin who has perception abilities or is proficient in earth escape, he will be helpless and can only retreat.

It is precisely because of this that Hideki chose to return to Konoha to teach, trying to use the power of Konoha to become stronger and continue to improve this tactic.

For example, by teaching and opening a workshop, he could acquire knowledge of sealing techniques, and at the same time create a puppetry development system centered on himself.

Solve material problems by opening shops to make money and exploring the Valley of the End to create more lethal puppets.

There are no problems up to here...

Hideki himself nodded slightly as he looked at his past experiences, feeling that although he occasionally took detours, his overall thinking was fine.

However, things started to go wrong afterwards.

Through the shadow clones' analysis from a bystander's perspective, Hideki began to find that some of his actions seemed to deviate from his previous goals.

For example, it is quite normal to develop breathing techniques to make up for one's shortcomings.

However, whether it is reasonable to prepare to popularize it to students for the sake of rapid development, or even first teach it to Obito who will become a villain in the future, is debatable.

There is no problem in giving the children the product of a detour - mechanical fluid magic for self-defense.

But after spending a lot of time working with Senior Dai to improve it, it seems that the attitude of intending to use it in actual combat is a bit dangerous.

There is also the barrier technique that he has recently spent a lot of time studying.

Although it was to deal with Aburame Shiguro, there are more than one way to deal with the phosphorus bugs, so why is it so urgent to master it?

The shadow clones' doubts are actually reasonable, but Hideki still doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with what he did.

The reason why the two sides have such a disagreement is actually obvious.

Hideki quickly figured it out and looked at the remaining red thinking hat on his desk...

It's emotion.

Only then did Hideki realize that in addition to his strength, his thoughts had also quietly changed a lot in the past few months.

It is not difficult to see from that despicable tactic how insecure he used to be.

In those uncertain days, he chose to close his heart and rarely made friends with others, even his teammates were no exception.

In this way, no matter which party suddenly dies, the other party will not be too sad.

But perhaps because of his improved strength, it would not be so easy for him to fail as long as he stayed in Konoha, and Hideki unknowingly opened his heart a little.

So gradually, he also formed some bonds with many people.

Everyone in the orphanage, the teachers and students in the school, and of course Minato and Kushina.

Even the Konoha villagers who served as the background gradually became friendly in his eyes.

Although this still cannot make Hideki the true successor of the will of fire, he is willing to risk his life for everyone.

But as long as he can protect himself and help everyone within his ability, he is still willing to help everyone.

But in this case, his original set of dirty tactics that focused on saving his life and escaping became a little out of date.

What Hideki needs is the power to protect himself and those around him.

Of course, he didn't realize this deeply before, but was moving in this direction driven by his subconscious.

Therefore, in order to advance the research on the breathing method as quickly as possible, he was willing to teach it to Obito.

The research on mechanical fluid technology is also an exploration of one's own frontal combat capabilities.

Although it was not very successful, it made him realize that his foundation was really too poor.

Before there is a fundamental improvement, breathing techniques and mechanical fluid techniques can only serve to make up for the shortcomings and cannot be the key to victory.

That's why he unconsciously placed his hope on the barrier technique...

Because the barrier technique itself is the most powerful defensive ninjutsu among all ninjutsu.

Whether it is to protect himself or to protect those around him, it can be Hideki's greatest helper.

And it seems as if it was destined by God.

The circuits of barrier techniques have always been quite complicated, so they can only be set up in fixed places or rely on the joint efforts of several ninjas who are proficient in sealing techniques.

Hideki's programmed sealing technique and rune micro-carving technology can solve the problem of miniaturization of barriers that has plagued the ninja world for many years.

At the same time, although the process of creating a barrier through high-concentration chakra is complicated, it does not involve changes in the characteristics of chakra.

In other words, this process can be completely driven by the chakra capacitor without consuming Hideki's own precious chakra.

Before Hideki masters more advanced sealing techniques, or finds a way to completely transform ninjutsu into rune techniques, this barrier technique is the only way for him to maximize the effect of chakra capacitance.

"Is it really a barrier technique..."

Hideki's real body began to mutter to himself.

In fact, after tinkering with the chakra capacitor, he realized that the barrier technique could be used in conjunction with it in actual combat, so he came up with the idea of ​​a completely new tactic.

But after the shadow clones sorted it out, he realized that this was not a "coincidence" at all, but a fate that had been predetermined under the impetus of his subconscious mind...

Hideki couldn't help but smile.

The image of a puppeteer has always been sinister and cunning, who likes to hide in the dark and use traps to plot against the enemy.

Because they are prone to accidental injuries, even their own people don't like them.

I never expected that I, who had always regarded them as role models, would end up taking a path that combined puppetry with barrier techniques that could protect everyone...

Okay.

Hideki has always wanted to improve the image of puppet masters in Konoha.

Apart from the nurse who saves lives and heals the wounded, who could be more popular than the tank who can protect everyone?

Of course, Hideki is also very clear that victory cannot be achieved by defense alone.

Therefore, how to integrate everything he has learned before into the barrier technique and create a fighting style that is unique to him is Hideki's next task...
