Naruto and Sasuke are doing nothing; Madara and I will set an example.

Kaguya sat upright on the futon.

Before her stood a man in a white divine robe, with long, flowing blue-silver hair, one hand behind his back, his elegant figure graceful and refined.

The man's voice was noble and refined, yet it exuded an undeniable authority.

"Kaguya, I know you haven't completely lost your compassion for humanity. So, if you choose to betray your race in the future, you'd better be prepared..."

The man in front of her turned his profile.

The revealed six-tomoe Rinnegan had a gradient sky-blue light flowing within its sclera, resembling that of a Tenseigan.

Suddenly, the man's voice changed, becoming a half-male, half-female reverberation, exuding an indescribable eeriness.

"Whether facing sanctions from one's own race or from humanity itself, one must be prepared to accept them!"

"Dragon Style..." As Kaguya uttered this name, her entire body was completely frozen, and she disappeared from the ground before her eyes with a wisp of cold mist.

"Phew, it's finally over." Dust fell to the ground, all alone.

Madara and Obito, resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation, did not experience any depletion or fatigue.

However, the dust of a human being, with flesh and blood, was somewhat exhausted after constantly maintaining the high-intensity star-destroying ability of the Susanoo Perfect Form and engaging in repeated fierce battles.

"Fortunately, I now have the chakra of Hashirama Senju and the spiritual energy of Madara."

"Otherwise, we really wouldn't be able to withstand this intensity."

Fortunately, we got what we were supposed to get, and we also got what we weren't supposed to get.

The hardware foundation for launching the plan is in place.

Ban strode over, holding a tin staff in his left hand.

Next, he will complete a very important handover ceremony.

"The summoning contract of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path is by default attached to me, the first person to awaken the Rinnegan after the Six Paths. Now, I am transferring this summoning contract to you."

Ban stopped in front of Chen, and black patterns appeared on his raised right palm.

Dust raised his left palm and joined it with Madara's right palm... as light burst forth from the depths of Madara's Rinnegan!

Dust's body trembled, and he took a step back!

The psychic contract had been transferred to his palm.

Chen looked at the spirit contract pattern that had disappeared from his palm.

He knew... that what he had taken over was not just the golem, but also Madara's expectations and entrustment to him.

After that, Chen became the only person in the ninja world who could summon the Gedo Mazo. Even if others with the Rinnegan appeared later, they could not compete with him for the Gedo Mazo.

Dust confirmed the time with his eyes.

7:58 p.m.

He smiled and said, "It's lunchtime, let's go home."

Nighttime, Konoha's dark alleyways.

Tono Kazusuke kicked the stone in front of him away forcefully.

Just ten minutes earlier, his suggestion in the Konoha hospital room that scientific ninja tools could defeat Uchiha Chen was rejected by both Naruto and Sasuke.

This infuriated him.

"The Seventh Hokage's vision is too short-sighted. After fighting for so many years, has his thinking become rigid? He can't even see that the future belongs to the era of scientific ninja tools!"

"Hey, you over there."

Fang Zhu stopped in his tracks and saw a blond boy standing by the drainage pipes extending from the building at the corner of the dark alley. The boy had his hands in his pockets, was blowing bubbles, and was staring at him with a pair of bright blue eyes.

It seems they were waiting for me here specifically.

Fang Zhu was taken aback for a moment, then his expression became subtle. He adjusted his glasses and greeted him warmly, "Oh, Boruto-sama, what can I do for you?"

"I heard everything you and my dad were talking about in the hospital room." Boruto pulled his left hand out of his pocket, tore off the bubble stuck to his mouth, rolled it into a ball, and put it back in his pocket.

Looking at Fang Zhu, he asked, "Hey, let me ask you, with the scientific ninja tools you mentioned, can we really defeat that Uchiha Chen?"

Chapter 53 If things are done this way, Uchiha Chen will surely be annihilated.

Looking at Boruto's face, which was full of restraint and anticipation.

Tono Kazusuke thought to himself: Young Master Boruto, because he can't bear the reality of the Seventh Hokage being defeated by an enemy, does he want to seek justice for his father in his own way?

Hehe, that suits me just fine.

A barely perceptible smile flickered across Fang Zhu's lips.

As a researcher, he longed for his scientific ninja tools to gain widespread recognition and promotion.

However, because the emergence of scientific ninja tools overturned tradition and was considered by the higher-ups to be detrimental to the progress of the new generation, they have remained lukewarm and have not yet been officially applied.

Today, after hearing that Naruto and Sasuke had been defeated by a man named Uchiha Chen, he immediately rushed into the ward with the latest gadgets, hoping to gain a shortcut and win attention.

But after listening to his earnest advice, Naruto and Sasuke said without hesitation that Uchiha Chen was not someone that could be dealt with.

Even Nara Shikamaru, who had been paying close attention to his research findings, shook his head and said that his arrival was ill-timed.

Just when it seemed things had fallen through again, Boruto's appearance gave Bangsuke a glimmer of hope.

Fang adjusted his glasses, quickly organizing his thoughts into words that would lead to the outcome he desired.

He said, "That's right. As long as we equip ourselves with the latest scientific ninja tools, we can blast Uchiha Chen to smithereens in a single encounter!"

Upon hearing this, Boruto frowned: "One encounter? That's too exaggerated. Although I've never seen my dad's true strength, he's still the Hokage, which is probably the strongest ninja in this village, right?"

"Sarazana's father, Uncle Sasuke, is also known as the only person in the village whose strength can rival my father's!"

"Even Dad and Uncle Sasuke couldn't defeat Uchiha Chen when they teamed up! You think he could be defeated in a single move by some scientific ninja tool you're talking about?"

Even Boruto, with his current understanding, felt that Fang Zhu was exaggerating.

But then Tono Kazusa adjusted his glasses and said calmly with a smile, "Boruto, that's because you're so naive. How about this, let's go to a spacious place, and I'll let you experience firsthand how effective scientific ninja tools are?"

"Okay." Boruto thought for a moment and agreed.

Fifteen minutes later, the two arrived at the shooting range behind Konoha Village.

Fang Zhu took out the wrist guards that he had shown to Naruto in the evening from his pocket.

Instead of immediately demonstrating, he proudly began explaining the science to Boruto.

"Boruto, this is the latest generation of scientific ninja tools, utilizing [Chakra Capacitor] technology. Using a chakra capacitor, the chakra needed to unleash ninjutsu can be stored within it. Then, after loading the ninjutsu into a miniaturized scroll, the sealed technique can be unleashed!"

"This way, there's no need to consume chakra or perform complicated hand seals. As long as you know how to operate this device, even a commoner who can't use ninjutsu can unleash the ninjutsu in the scroll!"

Boruto, picking at his ear, said listlessly, "I don't care about the principles, I only care if it's really as powerful as you say. Let me see it! I risked getting scolded by my mom to come here with you!"

What an impatient and ambitious young master... Fine, I'll show you something extraordinary then.

After putting on the wrist guards, Fang Zhu began to rub his hands in his pockets.

He found a scroll with a special mark among several tiny scrolls, each no bigger than the tip of his little finger.

"Oh, this is it."

He inserted the miniature scroll into the slot of the wrist guard ninja tool.

If the wrist guard of this chakra capacitor device is a 'gun', then these miniature scrolls can be regarded as 'bullets'.

"Click!" After the filling was completed, Fang Zhu raised his arm, which was wearing a wrist guard.

"Click!" After he touched a switch, a crisp sound came from inside the wristband as the spring returned to its original position.

"Whoosh!" The miniature scroll that had just been loaded popped out, and Fang Zhu quickly grasped it in his palm, held his wrist, and made a "six" gesture!

A perfectly formed Rasengan appeared in front of his 'six' hand gesture.

Flashing with dazzling light, under Boruto's astonished gaze, it shattered the target ten meters away with a "boom," and continued its momentum along a straight trajectory into the forest behind, flattening more than ten large trees along the way and leaving a deep crater at the end thirty meters away!

Fang Zhu thought to himself: The only limitation of the current technology is that it can only be launched in a straight trajectory. But... young master Boruto probably won't care about these minor flaws, right?

Seeing Boruto staring blankly at the smoke rising from the forest, looking completely naive, Fang Zhu was extremely satisfied: Just as expected, this is how it should be.

"Wow, that was amazing! That move was incredible! Can you do it again?!" Boruto excitedly clenched his fist.

Fang Zhu proudly pushed up his glasses. "That move is called Rasengan. The one who sealed it in the miniature scroll is none other than your Jonin, Sarutobi Konohamaru. However, there's only one left in stock for now. I'll replenish it later."

"Konohamaru-sensei? He also participated in your scientific ninja tool experiment?"

"Yes, it wasn't just Sarutobi Konohamaru; the Sixth Hokage, Hatake Kakashi, also participated." Fang Zhu rubbed his pocket and took out another scroll with a special mark.

"This contains the Sixth Generation's ultimate technique—[Purple Lightning], a rare Super S-rank technique among our collection."

After filling the scrolls, he took out a dozen more scrolls from his pocket.

"These are all ninjutsu ranging from B-rank to A-rank, and they can be loaded all at once."

As he filled it, he said, "Boruto, once you master this scientific chakra electric resistance device, you can unleash all sorts of powerful ninjutsu like a storm."

"No matter how strong Uchiha Chen is, he's still a ninja made of flesh and blood, right? Besides, no matter how fast he is at forming hand seals, he can't be faster than a scientific ninja tool that doesn't need hand seals and can fire continuously using mechanical means, right?"

"How could he possibly withstand the barrage of A-rank, or even S-rank, ninjutsu?"

Fang Zhu removed the loaded scientific ninja gauntlet and handed it to Boruto under his envious gaze.

"In that case, young master Boruto, as long as you equip yourself with this latest scientific ninja tool with chakra capacitors, you can annihilate Uchiha Chen in an instant!"

"Gulp!" Boruto swallowed hard and reached out to take it.

But then, Fang Zhu smiled meaningfully and withdrew his hand.

"What's wrong? Give it to me?" Boruto asked hesitantly.

Fang Zhu put his hands behind his back and said, "Boruto, I can give you the scientific ninja tools, but you have to promise me one thing first!"

"what's up?"

Boruto asked eagerly.

Then, Tono Hosuke spoke.

Chapter 54 Fading Light

Tono Kakusuke said, "The Chunin Exams, initiated by the five great ninja villages in our Konoha, are about to begin. Boruto, I want you to take my scientific ninja tools to this exam, and use them to defeat your opponents and win first place!"

"What did you say?" Boruto immediately became furious upon hearing Fang Zhu's words: "Participate in the Chunin Exams? Are you kidding me! My dad got beaten up like this and is lying in the hospital! Even if I don't like that he's never home! He's still my dad! I have no interest in participating in such a boring game as the Chunin Exams!"

Fang Zhu suppressed his smile.

The Chunin Exams are attended by the upper echelons of the five great nations and the leaders of the ninja clans.

There was simply no better occasion to promote scientific ninja tools.

In reality, the so-called "annihilation of Uchiha Chen" was just a gimmick used by Hosuke to attract attention.

Although Fang Zhu believed that this was possible, there were many problems involved.

Where is Uchiha Chen now?

As the son of the Hokage, Boruto is not allowed to act in private, let alone go alone to settle scores with Uchiha Chen.

Even if Boruto is equipped with his latest scientific ninja tools, he still has the ability to annihilate Uchiha Chen.

Fang Zhu is also unable to shoulder this responsibility.

What if something goes wrong? For example, Boruto might not be proficient in using scientific ninja tools, or he might get nervous and lose the initiative to the opponent.

Fang Zhu just wanted to prove himself, but he wasn't stupid enough to actually encourage Boruto to solo Uchiha Chen.

If the Chunin Exams serve as a platform to demonstrate the power of scientific ninja tools, Konoha will naturally organize a force equipped with scientific ninja tools to defeat Uchiha Chen.

That matter was thus resolved satisfactorily.

Even without the matter of transcending the mortal realm, Fang Zhu had considered approaching Boruto and using him to achieve his own goals. Now, things are just going smoothly.

Of course, she couldn't tell Boruto these thoughts.

Fang Zhu said with a serious expression, "Boruto, although the operation of scientific ninja tools is simple and easy to learn, it still requires a certain amount of practice before it can be used in actual combat. I think the Chunin Exams are a good training ground."

Boruto remained silent with a sullen face.

Konohamaru-sensei had suggested he participate in the Chunin Exams a long time ago, but he found it boring and declined in front of Sarada and Mitsuki.
