The thing is, everyone, be they Shinobi trainees, needs to be taught according to their individual aptitudes and differences… And the fact that different teachers have different aptitudes and teaching styles cannot be denied either,

So, we can say that if teachers of different styles teach the same student, then the final result will obviously be very different.

Take Uchiha Sasuke for instance, compared to the majority of his peers, he has strong learning, comprehension, analysis, and accepting aptitude, as such he can accept things at a faster pace. Coupled with the honor and the sense of pride that comes with the Uchiha identity gives him a temperament and desire to perform better than others and outshine them… With all these characteristics of his, Sasuke needs a teacher who can convince him of their ability so that Sasuke’s pride and arrogance don’t come in the way… Therefore, Orochimaru and Shinichi are the types who are perfect match for Sasuke.

But Uzumaki Naruto on the other hand is completely different… Naruto’s learning, comprehension, analysis, and accepting aptitude is not that high, as such, he is unable to accept things as fast as Sasuke and many others among his peers… To make him understand things, one needs to break them down into very basics and then teach him in a manner that he will be able to grasp with relative ease… Although his potential can be said to be higher than Sasuke’s, he needs a teacher who is willing to sit down with him and help him develop his potential step by step. Therefore, only teachers like Jiraiya are best suited to teach him, and Orochimaru is unable to connect on that level with him.

Whether consciously or subconsciously, Sasuke realizes this fact and feels that Uchiha Shinichi is suitable for teaching him. And because Shinichi was willing to teach him, so, Sasuke was also very serious in training and didn’t complain once about Shinichi’s harsh training methods.

With all these thoughts in his mind, Sasuke picked up the dry towel from the side, and while drying off the sweat, he pondered over all the mistakes he made during today’s training session and also thought of the alternatives that he could have used that would have given a better result.

Shinichi also walked to the side and while lightly glancing at Sasuke who was breathing heavily, he thought to himself, ‘Maybe he will be able to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan as well if he suffers right emotional trauma…’

As far as Shinichi is aware, awakening Mangekyou Sharingan does require emotional trauma, but that’s not the only determining factor, as there are other factors involved as well… the higher the talent, the less stimulation required, and higher the probability of awakening those eyes.

As for whether he is correct or not is not something he knows, but probably that’s how things work… according to him at least.

Anyway, all these things aside, as Shinichi walked over to towards them, Neji firstly respectfully addressed Shinichi, and then asked earnestly, “Shinichi-san, is it possible for you to train me as well?”

Upon hearing Neji’s request, Shinichi frowned slightly…

In Shinichi’s opinion, Neji’s talent is also very good, but the thing is, but unlike Sasuke, Neji is not an Uchiha, so Shinichi is not sure if he will be able to teach Neji. Moreover, Shinichi is also not an experienced teacher, and he is also not aware of how to teach him the techniques of the Hyuga Clan… so obviously he won’t be able to teach Neji.

And more importantly, Neji is Hyuga Kuroto’s disciple… As such, Shinichi has to also consider the possibility that Kuroto may have some special plan for Neji… And without that clarification, Shinichi obviously wouldn’t try to indiscriminately teach Neji as it might affect Kuroto’s plans.

Neji didn’t know Shinichi’s complex thought, but seeing Shinichi’s frowned expression, he realized that he was being a bit too impatient as well as disrespectful towards the other person, and quickly apologized, “Please forgive me, I was a bit rude just now.”

Teaching others and taking them as disciples is a very sacred act in the Shinobi World, the relationship between a master and their disciples is like a relationship between parent and a child… And knowledge of Jutsu and other Shinobi arts is generally only shared with the disciples…

Of course, being taught Clan techniques and other Jutsu from the inheritance of the Clan is still possible, but it is only possible for those who are part of the clan, as, for the others, it is completely impossible. This is also the reason why the children of the civilians, who don’t have any major background or don’t show enough talent in their academy years or aren’t particularly lucky always stay far behind the children from the major Shinobi Clans…

So the fact that Neji openly asked to be taught from Uchiha Shinichi without any regard to his and the other person’s identity was indeed disrespectful… not only towards Shinichi but also towards Kuroto… because by asking to be taught by Shinichi means expressing dissatisfaction towards Kuroto’s teaching…

Shinichi shook his head, and explained, “It’s not that I don’t want to teach you… it’s just that I don’t know what to teach you and how to teach you as I don’t have much knowledge about the Taijutsu techniques that the Hyuga Clan practices…”

Neji nodded again and apologized, “Yes I understand… I was being reckless earlier…” then immediately stepped aside calmly… But the disappointment on his face was hard to conceal. And the frustration within him grew…

Seeing Sasuke progressing extremely fast, while him remaining still at the same point made Neji feel more and more frustrated and he didn’t know what to do…

Seeing Neji’s expression filled with disappointment, Shinichi felt a little guilty and sighed helplessly…

The other side of the Training Field.

After the training for the day was over, the masked Obito and Zetsu who were observing the training left that area as White Zetsu asked, “It’s been quite a few days since you gave those tasks to the two informants in Konoha… by now they might have collected some information…”

Masked Obito thought about White Zetsu’s words, and nodded, “Yes… they should have gathered at least something useful by now…” then added, “Let one of your clones go to Konoha and check.”

White Zetsu nodded and while transmitting instruction through the tree roots into the ground, he said, “I hope they have gathered something useful… It makes me really excited just thinking about it!”

Konohagakure, Shimura Danzo’s Base of Operation

After Danzo finalized all the seven Kekkei Genkai that he wants to absorb through Chimera Jutsu, Homusubi and Orochimaru began to make adjustments in the Chimera Jutsu on their part, and also started finalizing the last part, that is designing the ritual ceremony.

This part of the work was done together, and in the huge laboratory, both Orochimaru and Tsukihi were busy with their respective work.

After a long time, Orochimaru who was busy with the task at hand, turned his neck and shifted his gaze to Homusubi at the other end of the laboratory, and asked in asked curiously, “Should I call you Homusubi or by your original name perhaps?”

Homusubi didn’t turn her head and said in a chilling tone, “I think you are more than wise to figure that by yourself…”

Orochimaru chuckled, “I see… Homusubi it is…” then added in a deep tone, “Homusubi… aren’t you worried in the slightest?”

Homusubi frowned, and asked in confusion, “Worried about what?”

Orochimaru looked down for a moment, then lifted his head and said with an extremely serious expression, “You should be more clear about all this… in regards to what we are doing… the risks… Aren’t you worried in the slightest that we won’t be able to control Shimura Danzo and he will get out of hand… moreover, given his ambitions…”

In the beginning, Orochimaru also wanted to use Shimura Danzo as a suitable pawn and lab rat in order to improve the Chimera Jutsu…

But, as he delved deeper and deeper into the research of this forbidden Jutsu, coupled with the high-end knowledge and understanding that he recently gained from Homusubi, Orochimaru’s initial inherent concepts were broken, and with that changed perspective he analyzed the depth of Chimera Jutsu, and he was literally shocked when he realized what this project actually entails, and this scared him…

Yes, even someone like Orochimaru started to feel a little scared at the thought of letting Danzo use this Jutsu to acquire seven Kekkei Genkai.

It wouldn’t have been that big of a problem if Danzo didn’t have such a character and ambition, but that guy wants to unite the entire Shinobi World, and for that, he can do almost anything… this makes him an extremely dangerous and unstable existence!

Homusubi glanced at Orochimaru and said lightly, “You are too worried…”

“I am too worried?!” Orochimaru frowned, and said, “Don’t you realize… if your theories are correct, which they are… and if Danzo succeeds in the ritual ceremony… he will acquire seven Kekkei Genkai! That’s full seven Kekkei Genkai! He would be unstoppable by then! And once he succeeds, we will be the ones he will come after at that time… doesn’t this scare you in the slightest?!”

Sharingan, Wood Release, Crystal Release, Dark Release, Swift Release, Boil Release, and Storm Release… Success in acquiring these Seven Kekkei Genkai would mean successful fusion of all the seven Chakra natures… The fusion of two Chakra Natures and three Chakra Natures alone is so powerful… what would happen if all these seven Chakra Natures are fused…

The more Orochimaru thinks about it, the more he feels that they are trying to step into the territory of Gods… And if all the seven Chakra Natures really merge within Danzo, then he will definitely become an existence no inferior to a God… A God created by Humans… A God created by science!

Orochimaru feels that calling it ‘Project Godhood’ a project of creating a God seems more reasonable.
