Afterwards, Uchiha Takashi went to the cafeteria and ordered rectification. The person in charge, seeing that it was the clan head personally issuing the order, immediately assured him that the rectification was completed by noon that day.

After resolving the cafeteria issue, we strolled around the training grounds, the playground, and the various buildings.

Uchiha Takashi then left the school. Standing at the school gate, he looked back at the familiar gate, and a feeling he couldn't quite explain welled up inside him.

However, after leaving the school, Uchiha Takashi felt much easier to breathe, probably because he had a debuff while he was a student.

Looking at the still-high sun, Uchiha Takashi scratched his head. Since he had nothing to do in the office anyway, he figured he'd just wander around the clan's territory.

After randomly choosing a direction, he continued walking, and after a few steps he spotted the second building he had ordered to be constructed.

Uchiha Secret Technique Research Institute! Specializing in researching Ninjutsu suitable for or usable only by Uchiha Uchiha.

Speaking of this, Uchiha Takashi recalled the news that Tatsu Uchiha had sent when he was still the Grand Elder, saying that the research institute had developed a new Ninjutsu called Chidori.

The explanation at the time was that it was still under improvement and needed further refinement before it could be used. I wonder how much progress has been made in the improvements over the past six months?

Thinking this, Uchiha Takashi stepped into the research institute.

"Clan Chief!" Upon reaching the innermost part of the compound, the researchers who had been conducting their studies were taken aback upon seeing Uchiha Takashi, before immediately greeting him.

Uchiha Takashi waved his hand, then asked, "What are you researching?"

One researcher, resting his chin on his hand, said, "We're thinking about a question: Is there a Ninjutsu that can be adapted to the Sharingan's super-powerful dynamic vision?"

For example, the Ninjutsu we release can move automatically according to the direction of our gaze. This way, no matter how skillfully the enemy hides, the Ninjutsu won't miss under the unerring Sharingan!

Another researcher chimed in, "And I was thinking, could we create a giant meteorite from the sky that crashes into the ground and creates a huge crater? Our Uchiha Clan, with our exceptional observational skills, could detect its trajectory in advance and avoid it."

Other researchers, on the other hand, continued to think outside the box, showcasing their novel ideas.

Uchiha Takashi listened to these, and he didn't recognize the first Ninjutsu the researcher mentioned, but the second one sounded so much like the Tengai Shinsei.

Uchiha Takashi coughed twice, interrupting the researchers who were getting carried away with their thoughts. "You can experiment with these yourselves later. I'm here to ask a question: how is the Chidori you invented six months ago doing now? Is it ready for large-scale use?"

Upon hearing this number, a researcher stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Is the clan leader referring to the Lightning Release Ninjutsu, Chidori?"

Uchiha Takashi tilted his head. "Could there possibly be a second Chidori?"

The researcher then explained, "If it's the Chidori, it's indeed almost finished being improved, but it's still missing the final step: Chakra consumption."

Currently, the Chakra required to release Chidori is enormous. Without a large Chakra reserve, an ordinary Uchiha can only release it a maximum of five times.

In fact, Chidori was finalized a month ago, but we've been trying to reduce Chakra consumption.

Otherwise, Chidori would just be a basic attack used by those Mitsudomoe clan members, and its application in actual combat would completely fail to meet our requirements.

If Chidori cannot reduce Chakra, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced, making it completely unusable on a large scale in actual combat.

Uchiha Takashi stroked his chin, and then unconsciously recalled Kakashi 'Tenten tense expression.

As is well known, Kakashi's Chakra reserves have always been a unit of measurement in Naruto, famously known for his Tenten insufficient Chakra reserves.

Perhaps it's not that Kakashi lacks Chakra, but simply that the techniques he uses consume too much chakra?

Uchiha Takashi shook his head. "No, that can't be. If it really consumes a lot of chakra, how did Sasuke Uchiha use it?"

Even before Sasuke Uchiha awakened the Mitsudomoe, he had already mastered the Chidori Stream to its fullest extent, using Tenten. If it truly consumed a huge amount of Chidori, Sasuke Uchiha would have been completely drained long ago.

So Kakashi's fake demeanor is simply a result of him Tenten the Little Emperor's Book every day!

Uchiha Takashi nodded affirmatively upon thinking about this, then said to the researchers with considerable curiosity, "Show me that Chidori, let me see if I can modify it?"

The researcher nodded, then clasped his hands together and began Hand Seals. Following this, his palms were enveloped in a ball of lightning, which then formed a sharp, Lightning Spear shape.

However, as the shape changed, cold sweat kept dripping down the researchers' foreheads, seemingly consuming a huge amount of Chakra.

Uchiha Takashi activated his Mangekyō Sharingan without hesitation, observing the flow of Chakra. He then nodded, seemingly having discovered something.

After the demonstration, he said to the researchers, "As soon as I activated my Sharingan, I noticed three problems! First, why did you expend so much Chakra to try and reshape the Lightning Spear?"

Secondly, your Chakra flow isn't quite right; it actually consumes more Chakra when you circulate it.

Third, why limit ourselves to three hand seals instead of five, so that we can better control Chakra and accomplish this number of tasks with less Chakra?

The researchers were stunned for a moment, then their mouths dropped open. "Huh? You can do that?"

His mind was very simple. He originally thought that the fewer hand seals he formed, the faster he could unleash the Ninjutsu in actual combat. So he was thinking about how to release the Ninjutsu with the least amount of Chakra using only three hand seals, without considering forming more hand seals at all.

As for his Chakra usage, this was the method he considered the most Chakra- efficient, but unexpectedly, Uchiha Takashi.

Looking at the researcher's expression, Uchiha Takashi raised his head slightly. "Alright, I think what I said has penetrated your soul. Try changing the Hand Seals to five."

As he spoke, Uchiha Takashi demonstrated with his hands. He showed off how easily he used Chidori.

"See? It's very easy. In fact, it doesn't require much Chakra at all. Even a ten-year-old child, as long as they have the Sharingan, can use it!"

The researchers stared Sharingan at the sharp Lightning Spear wrapped in Uchiha Takashi's palm, their faces filled with astonishment. They exclaimed, "As expected of the clan leader! He only looked at it once, yet he managed to successfully improve it in such a short time?"

Uchiha Takashi's lips curled into a smile. This was all based on his observations with the Mangekyō Sharingan, definitely not because he knew the operation of Chidori from his previous life.
