Pupet Master in Konoha

"Come on, Rin!"

"Show everyone how amazing you are!"

Amid the slightly noisy cheers from Obito, Nohara Rin walked forward with a helpless smile on her face.

After nodding to Hideki, Rin extended her hand and held the tail of the puppet snake, just as Obito had done a moment ago, and began to inject chakra into it.

As the chakra flowed in, the puppet snake slowly seemed to awaken, starting from its tail and gradually turning its body.

One section, two sections, three sections...

Just like her classmates, Rin started off well.

However, starting from the last quarter, when Obito had been perplexed, she began to feel an increasingly obvious block as the chakra entered.

It was as if water was flowing through a pipe that was almost completely clogged.

After this, Rin began to realize that controlling the puppet snake was becoming more and more difficult.

But Rin didn't give up.

She started closing her eyes and slowing her breath, focusing all her attention on the puppet snake.

Under her concentrated control, the puppet snake finally continued to turn its body.

Four sections, five sections, six sections...

With fairly good chakra control, Nohara Rin managed to overcome these difficulties.

But when she reached the seventh section, the situation became more serious.

Rin's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

She realized that the amount of chakra flowing into the seventh section had become pitifully small.

With her current chakra control, she couldn't make the puppet snake move even for half a second with such a small amount of chakra.

This seems to be my limit...

After several unsuccessful attempts, Rin sighed inwardly and was ready to give up.

However, at that moment, her mind suddenly recalled the words the teacher had mentioned when introducing the chakra threads.

High-density chakra threads...

Nohara Rin suddenly had an idea.

Yes!

If the density of chakra can be increased through compression, maybe more chakra could be injected into the puppet snake...

But this led to a new problem.

That meant she didn't even know how to create chakra threads, let alone compress chakra...

Wait…

Rin seemed to suddenly think of something again.

Hadn't she seen a similar method of creating things somewhere...?

Just now, wasn't Hideki using chakra threads to twist everyone's hair and cotton threads to create the control wires?

The control wire was originally made to simulate chakra threads, so it's likely that their structure is very similar.

Casually, due to her modest family background, Rin used to help her mother twist cotton into fine threads since she was a child, and then she would make clothes or handkerchiefs.

So, although she didn't know how to make chakra threads, she was very familiar with making regular threads.

More importantly, Rin also remembered that every time she twisted the thread, a large ball of soft cotton could only be twisted into a small roll of tightly wound cotton thread.

This is the simplest compression method.

So, if making chakra threads is indeed similar to making regular threads, does that mean that twisting the loose chakra into chakra threads could increase the chakra's density?

Although it was just a hypothesis without much foundation...

But Rin, who had always been interested in textile crafts, couldn't resist the temptation to try spinning chakra and, without realizing it, she began attempting it.

She first interrupted the flow of chakra and began to condense and arrange the chakra in her body.

Seeing that the puppet snake had stopped moving, the little ninjas around her thought Rin had decided to give up and were about to speak.

However, Hideki noticed that Rin seemed to have something in mind, so he stood up at the right moment and raised his finger to his lips to signal everyone to be quiet, so no one would disturb Rin.

Rin, who was closing her eyes and focusing, naturally didn't know about this little episode.

After a moment, when she felt ready, she opened her eyes and began approaching the puppet snake again.

But this time, her method was very different from before.

Rin gently touched the tail of the puppet snake with her five fingers and then raised her hand.

Immediately, five long chakra threads extended from the tips of her fingers and from the tail of the puppet snake.

Although she had tried her best to slow down the chakra's spread, the chakra threads released from the tips of her fingers were still quite thick and couldn't exactly be called chakra threads.

But she expected this because these chakra threads were just semi-finished products.

Then, Rin began to control them to stretch and twist as if she were twisting a towel, using the most traditional twisting technique to spin the chakra into thin chakra threads.

However, just like the twisted cotton thread, these fine chakra threads were still very fragile.

Rin could feel that if she wasn't careful, they could break and escape into the air.

So, she followed the method of making cotton threads and started twisting the five thin chakra threads together, and then twisted them among themselves by rotating them.

This way, a tighter and more stable chakra thread was born.

But this wasn't the end.

Because using it successfully to control the puppet snake was the true test.

Rin carefully began to extend the chakra thread from the puppet snake's tail along its body, extending deep into the thin line made of chakra-conductive material...

Needless to say, there was no issue with the first three sections. Even the four, five, and six sections were easily surpassed by Rin.

It was only when she reached the impregnable seventh section that Rin experienced the familiar feeling of being stuck again.

But with the chakra thread she had just created, she finally made it through.

It was a pity that Rin's chakra threads were still just a product of honing her skills in battle.

Facing the eighth section, which was more difficult, the chakra thread was quickly overwhelmed and disconnected, and she ultimately didn't succeed in breaking through...

But even so, her achievements were enough to draw attention.

"Seven points! Rin, you're amazing!"

First, Obito, who had been watching, couldn't wait to shout loudly, as if he were proud of her.

Although Obito was a bit down when Rin ruthlessly crushed his score, the feeling of being happy for Rin still prevailed.

Because he had always paid close attention to Rin since they were children, and he knew how hard she worked behind the scenes to catch up with her classmates who were born into ninja clans.

The little ninjas around them couldn't help but marvel. They hadn't expected that Nohara Rin, who was usually not very conspicuous, would have such a unique ability...

You must know that so far, only a few students have scored over five points, and almost all of them are from ninja clans.

For example, Shiranui Genma has five points, Asuma has six points, Yuhi Kurenai has six points...

And almost all of them fell short before reaching the seventh section.

The only ones who made it through were Rin and Hyuga Kamon, who scored eight points due to their family background.

As a teacher, Hideki was even more pleased.

This was like when he finally pulled a rare SSR card from a mobile game in his previous life after a lot of effort.

After evaluating so many students, he had finally found a gifted child!

Although Hideki had actually known that Rin's exam scores would be good.

Because he remembered that in the original work, although Rin wasn't very strong, she once used the Palm Healing Technique to treat Kakashi.

This is an A-rank medical ninjutsu. Even in medical classes, only a few elites can learn it.

The reason Palm Healing is difficult to learn is that the amount of Yang Release chakra must be precisely adjusted according to the specific condition of the wound or affected area.

Once the input is excessive, it will destroy the patient's normal circulatory system and even cause the patient to fall into a coma.

Therefore, the prerequisite for mastering the Palm Healing Technique is excellent chakra control.

As for Nohara Rin, who will learn Palm Healing in the future, her current chakra control will naturally not be poor.

But Hideki thought that for someone like Rin, who came from a humble background, achieving five or six points was already a good result.

So when he saw her score seven points, Hideki was slightly surprised.

But what surprised him even more was that Rin had truly mastered the method of creating chakra threads.

And judging by Rin's performance right now, this method was something she had come up with on the spot.

Although it was just the most primitive and crude chakra thread, it was already a remarkable innovation for a seven-year-old girl.

You must know that one of the important reasons Hideki came to teach at the Ninja Academy was to train assistants who could help him share the work of research and development.

Just like Kabuto Yakushi to Orochimaru.

Rin, who had excellent chakra control and also showed innovation and development abilities, was undoubtedly a very good candidate.

Even Rin's humble background was a huge advantage.

Because, no matter how good the chakra control and high IQ of the children from the ninja clans were, it was almost impossible for them to dedicate all their time to practicing puppets, let alone become his assistant.

Therefore, Rin, who has three main advantages, may not be as strong as many of her classmates, but to Hideki, she is an absolute prize!

The only thing that made Hideki feel a little regretful was that, despite all the good things about Rin, she still had a huge flaw.

That is, Nohara Rin, as Obito's girlfriend, was likely to be sacrificed as a part of the plan by Uchiha Madara to awaken Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan in the future.

Although Hideki's presence has made the future unpredictable.

But as long as Obito continues to like Rin and Uchiha Madara chooses Obito as the executor of his plan, it's highly likely that this tragic future will unfold.

—But that will happen in about six years.

It was impossible for Hideki to give up the talent in front of him for something that might happen many years later.

Not to mention that he genuinely admired the kind and strong Nohara Rin from the original timeline of his previous life and felt sorrow for her death.

However, if he were to fight against Uchiha Madara over this in the future, Hideki had to admit that he truly couldn't do it.

As a time traveler, even though he had lived here for many years, he still felt somewhat disconnected from the ninja world.

Therefore, his primary goal had always been to take care of himself first and then help others when possible.

Still, if it was only to teach her knowledge and give this poor girl a chance to change her fate, Hideki would still be very happy.

After making up his mind, Hideki softly began to speak to Rin:

"Nohara-kun, I wonder if you're interested in becoming a true puppeteer?"
