People's physiques are different and cannot be generalized
Lin Ke watched Yurika working as if no one else was around, and for a moment, he didn't know what he should do.
It was clearly Yurika who had invited him through Yamanaka Haiichi's connections to participate in the cipher decryption work, but now, as soon as she had a lead, she started working without saying a word.
"Don't wait." The white-coated, bespectacled girl sitting at a nearby table spoke, "When Yurika-sensei gets into work mode, she completely ignores everyone else."
"If I were you, I'd leave now."
Lin Ke looked over, and the bespectacled girl pushed up her glasses, saying, "I'm Shiho, Haiichi-sama's subordinate."
"Nice to meet you, please take care of me." He said politely, after all, she was Yamanaka Haiichi's subordinate, so theoretically they were on the same side.
But it seemed like he could run into people who knew Ino-Shika-Cho wherever he went, this network was really something.
Shiho nodded, coldly lowered her head and continued working, looking like a very tactless person.
Lin Ke stayed in the Cipher Department for a while, but really didn't know what to do. The key was that everyone in the room was working seriously, and he was the only one standing there dumbly. Seeing Yurika's serious work, he simply left the Cipher Department and wandered around the nearby Medical Team building.
It had been a long time since he'd come, and it was still the same as before, with no one on duty at all. There wasn't even a shadow of a person in the first-floor office. They were either busy in the lab, or out helping or on missions.
He ran to the library and borrowed a few books on how to prepare medicinal herbs and concoct potent drugs, burying himself in them.
The applications for the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Eight Gates Formation Technique had already been submitted in the morning. The Third Hokage didn't seem surprised at all, and even the two advisors next to him were used to his thirst for Ninjutsu.
It wasn't surprising that a Ninjutsu genius known throughout the village would set his sights on the Flying Thunder God Technique, but it was a bit surprising that he would be interested in the Eight Gates Formation.
After all, the Eight Gates Formation was a proper advanced Taijutsu technique, so advanced that no other Taijutsu could sit at the same table with it.
Based on Lin Ke's past demonstrated Taijutsu level, it could only be said that he wasn't very suitable for learning the Eight Gates Formation, a Forbidden Technique-level Taijutsu. However, part of this Taijutsu could originally be taught to students. It was only when the Third Gate of Life was opened for the Reverse Lotus that it began to enter the realm of Forbidden Techniques.
For the village, if the ninjas could learn it, it would be acceptable to open the gates at a critical moment to gain some power.
In any case, the application submitted along with these two techniques also included an application to learn Forbidden Techniques. Lin Ke estimated that he definitely wouldn't get any techniques like the Reaper Death Seal or the Impure World Reincarnation.
But he had to try. When he first became a Chunin, he had applied for more than seventy techniques. Now he was at least a Special Jonin, and had made no small contribution in the Chunin Exams. Even if the information was sealed to protect him, the higher-ups had to give him some face.
The scope of Forbidden Techniques for ninjas was very broad. Any technique that could endanger the caster's life could be called a Forbidden Technique.
But as the saying goes, people have different constitutions and cannot be generalized.
Might Guy would be fine even if he used the Morning Peacock after opening the Sixth Gate, let alone using a Forbidden Technique like the Reverse Lotus. When Naruto first developed the Spiral Shuriken, he was forbidden from using it, but later he was able to throw it around casually because his strength increased rapidly.
What if his constitution was particularly suitable for certain techniques?
It's almost dark, time to go home, tomorrow I'll go to Master's place to freeload some medicinal herbs...
Lin Ke rubbed his eyes. The feeling of studying seriously was sometimes quite tiring. He got up to stretch his body, put the books back in their original positions on the bookshelf, and left the Medical Team building.
On the way, he bought some ingredients, and then ran to the Training Grounds to summon Rashomon with a large amount of Chakra.
His maximum Chakra usage allowed the deceased to move freely in the mortal world for several hours, so cooking and eating were no problem.
After explaining the general situation to the Uchiha couple, the three returned to the apartment, used the spare key Sasuke had given them to enter, Uchiha Mikoto carried the ingredients into the kitchen to get busy, and Uchiha Fugaku wandered around the room with a complicated expression, sat on the sofa, and sighed silently.
There was almost nothing for entertainment or leisure in the room. The TV hadn't been turned on for a long time, and the clothes were folded neatly in the closet.
Just looking at the room, you could tell he was a very sensible child, but as a father, he felt a little sorry for his son. ——"Click~"
Uchiha Sasuke opened the door, and a scent of food rushed into his nostrils.
"Sasuke's back, the food will be ready in a while~" Uchiha Mikoto stood at the kitchen door wearing an apron, waving with a smile.
Lin Ke was sitting on the sofa watching TV. The TV, which hadn't been turned on for a long time, was playing a comedy show.
His father, Uchiha Fugaku, was sitting next to him, flipping through a magazine he didn't know where it came from.
This familiar scene made him feel a little dazed.
"Sasuke-kun..." Haruno Sakura, who was following behind, said weakly. This guy was standing directly at the door, blocking it.
"Oh." Sasuke entered the house, and Haruno Sakura followed.
"This is?" Uchiha Fugaku showed a kind smile. His appearance was a bit serious and fierce, so it was quite a contrast when such an old man showed a smile.
"Hello, Uncle, I'm Sasuke's teammate, Haruno Sakura." Sakura handed over the gift she had prepared.
"Oh my~" Uchiha Mikoto poked her head out of the kitchen with a face full of smiles, the smile on her face carrying a different meaning.
Haruno Sakura lowered her head and said, "Auntie, hello." As she spoke, she walked towards the kitchen, her face beaming with a smile. She picked up another apron from the table and said, "Auntie, let me help."
Shadow went over and closed the door. Sasuke sat down next to Lin Ke and his father, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Sorry, I'm late. Kakashi took on a low-level mission today, which delayed us."
"Mm," Uchiha Fugaku responded, then said, "That girl—"
"Just a teammate," Sasuke emphasized.
Uchiha Fugaku put down the magazine in his hand and began chatting casually with his son.
Before long, Yuan Wei and Kasumi also arrived. The food was ready and on the table when Hatake Kakashi finally arrived late. The moment he saw Uchiha Fugaku and his wife, his expression visibly stiffened, and a look of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
That kid is still abusing that technique, he thought as he sat down.
"Our Sasuke is grateful for your care..." Uchiha Mikoto said politely and gently.
Haruno Sakura, her face flushed, sat close to her, occasionally casting glances that were almost hearts at Sasuke, who was eating with his head down.
Yuan Wei and Kasumi took turns talking about their recent experiences. The missions they had done while following Lin Ke were all of a high level. Now that they were back to missions that only Genin would do, it was a piece of cake, with absolutely no risk. They mostly talked about the interesting things they had encountered.
The meal was enjoyed by all.
