So that was it... So that was it...
In the dim yellow light, Chiba looked at the seal on the gate, one he had seen several times before. Countless dense Tadpole Script characters seemed to flash rapidly through his eyes, as if that incomparably complex seal were constantly being broken apart, reconstructed, combined, scrambled, and combined again in ever more variations.
The same endless process of decomposition and reconstruction played out in Chiba's mind. The Tadpole Script danced as if alive, continually forming Sealing Jutsu Formulas. As each formula took shape, Chiba drew upon his extensive knowledge of Sealing Jutsu to infer the purpose of every formula—from simple ones, to complex ones, to even more intricate ones—and the role each played at different levels of complexity.
Which ones stabilized the structure, which ones formed the core... which ones governed changes in the Sealing Jutsu's function...
Then, on that foundation, he continued making deductions about the functions of the powerful Sealing Jutsu formed from those simple, complex, and even more complex formulas, seeking to understand their construction through understanding their effects.
Finally, based on his understanding of their construction and the Sealing Jutsu Formulas that composed them, he memorized these powerful seals, complex to an extreme degree, as thoroughly as possible.
The more of these immensely complex powerful seals he memorized, the closer he came to seals that were even more intricate and powerful than them. And the closer he came to those even more intricate and powerful seals, the more he could understand seals that were more complex and stronger still. The more he understood such overwhelmingly complex and powerful seals, the closer Chiba came to the ultimate Sealing Jutsu Formula.
At this moment, with more time in this Sealed Space than ever before, and with greater focus than during
