+15
As soon as Sasuke finished speaking, the numbers in front of him started jumping.
Asuma also looked at Kakashi, his face filled with confusion, unable to understand what Kakashi meant.
"No, that's not it."
Kakashi explained in a low voice.
"The Hokage's secret order was for Asuma to pretend to negotiate, for me to lead the ninja and prepare to surround them, while Gai would lead a squad to attack from the rear. Am I right?"
"You're right!" Asuma nodded.
"That's why I'm asking, is this an order directly from the Third Hokage?" Kakashi said seriously.
"Does it matter?" Asuma was still puzzled.
"That's what I'm trying to say. If this arrangement was personally devised by the Third Hokage, then the situation might be more critical than we imagine. He probably didn't consult with Shikaku." Kakashi said in a deep voice.
"You mean, the Third...didn't even tell Shikaku?" Asuma's expression suddenly changed.
"Exactly!" Kakashi nodded and said, "This should be a highly confidential document. No one knew about it before we saw it, to ensure the success of the surprise attack and assassination plan!"
"That must be it!" Asuma nodded in agreement with Kakashi.
"Therefore, this plan should be changed according to the current conditions!" Kakashi stared at Sasuke, he had been watching Sasuke's reaction.
However.
Sasuke's face didn't change at all. It could be said that he was the king of poker faces, completely taking indifference to the extreme, but the system points didn't increase.
While Kakashi and Asuma were making their own assumptions, Sasuke didn't participate at all.
No need to participate!
Just keep going, the more you speculate, the better!
I'm not afraid of your assumptions, I'm afraid of your doubts!
"How do we change it?"
Sasuke vaguely realized that there should be a flaw in the battle plan he had customized, and this flaw was spotted by Kakashi at a glance.
That shouldn't be!
Where did it go wrong?
Let Asuma, as the representative of Konoha, pretend to negotiate with the people from the Land of Earth, attracting the attention of the Iwagakure ninja.
Just when the Iwagakure ninja were most focused, Kakashi would lead the Konoha ninja to surround and attack them.
Gai and himself would go to sneak attack the ninja delivering information in the rear.
Three-pronged attack, annihilate them in one fell swoop.
This was enough to prevent Iwagakure from getting even the last bit of information, gaining valuable time for the subsequent war.
What's wrong with that?
This is all tactics learned in the Ninja Academy!
Sasuke looked at Kakashi in confusion. He knew that Kakashi was not only a genius in ninjutsu but also had a brilliant mind. He wouldn't say such things for no reason.
"The Third Hokage chose the wrong people in a hurry."
Kakashi raised his right hand and shook his finger, his whole person looked very serious.
"Gai is not suitable for sneak attacks, but he is very suitable for sieges, and you are more suitable for assassinations. We should switch our tasks."
Kakashi directly pointed out the main point.
"Yes, that's it!"
Sasuke suddenly realized.
The tactic was correct.
The people were wrong!
Kakashi used to work in the Anbu and was very good at assassination, while Gai's fighting style was not suitable for assassination at all.
How could I forget this!
Sasuke immediately realized that he still hadn't considered things comprehensively enough when assigning tasks.
As expected of Kakashi.
He found the key to the issue at once.
"Sasuke, you and Gai's team will carry out the encirclement mission, I will carry out the assassination mission alone, and the rest will be carried out according to the Third Hokage's instructions." Kakashi immediately gave his conclusion.
"No!" Sasuke refused without hesitation, almost as soon as Kakashi finished speaking.
+10
The numbers in front of Sasuke jumped.
Instantly.
Kakashi and Asuma looked at Sasuke in surprise, they didn't expect Sasuke to directly refuse.
You're just a Genin!
Just listen to what the two Jonin say!
Learn to follow orders!
"Sasuke, as ninja, we have to complete the tasks assigned by our superiors, but in the process of completing the tasks, we must learn to adapt to the situation. A ninja who doesn't know how to adapt is not a good ninja!"
Kakashi said seriously, as if he was teaching Sasuke a lesson.
"Kakashi-sensei, I have no objection to you and Gai-sensei switching tasks, and I have no objection to Gai's team carrying out the siege mission, but I want to go with you to carry out the assassination mission!" Sasuke said firmly.
+10
The numbers in front of Sasuke jumped again, these words were already considered bragging by the system.
"No!"
Kakashi also refused without hesitation.
"Sasuke, I don't know why the Third Hokage sent you to the front line, but you are only a Genin now, you can't carry out assassination missions yet!"
Kakashi had no intention of negotiating.
This was not something to be negotiated.
Letting a Genin who just graduated from the Ninja Academy participate in a high-risk assassination mission was tantamount to sending him to his death!
Kakashi didn't care how the Third Hokage arranged it, he couldn't just watch Sasuke die.
"Sasuke, Kakashi is right, the assassination mission is too dangerous for you, you can follow me or follow Gai!" Asuma agreed.
"Kakashi-sensei, although I am only a Genin, I have extraordinary significance in this battle."
As Sasuke spoke, he took out a kunai from his ninja tool pouch.
It was an ordinary kunai, but it had an explosive tag tied to the handle, and the explosive tag had the word "Starting Point" written on it.
+20
The numbers in front of Sasuke jumped.
"This is..."
Kakashi's pupils shrank sharply.
The shape was different.
But the feeling was the same.
Kakashi immediately thought of his teacher Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God Technique. He was not yet sure if the technique imprinted on the explosive tag tied to Sasuke's kunai was the Flying Thunder God formula.
"What is this?"
Asuma also looked at the kunai in Sasuke's hand, he didn't even think about the Flying Thunder God.
Isn't this just a kunai with an explosive tag?
And it's the wrong way to tie it, a normal explosive tag can be directly hung on the kunai.
This kind of explosive tag can't even be activated.
Kakashi didn't answer Asuma's question. He stared at Sasuke with suspicion, his tone extremely serious.
"Sasuke, are you sure you can?"
Since his teacher Minato Namikaze, Kakashi had never seen anyone else who could independently perform the Flying Thunder God Technique.
This technique required extremely high talent in space-time ninjutsu and was not a technique that could be easily learned.
Moreover.
Sasuke was only 12 years old!
To learn the Flying Thunder God Technique at such a young age, he must have put in a lot of hard work!
"Kakashi-sensei, I'm certain I can."
The corners of Sasuke's mouth curled up slightly. This was the first time he had shown any change in expression since he entered the woods and spoke with Kakashi and Asuma. His face was filled with endless confidence and pride.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 112: I Am Konoha's Strongest Genin!
+25
The number in front of Sasuke's eyes increased again.
Flying Thunder God Technique!
This long-lost name appeared in Kakashi's mind, making him feel very confused.
How did he suddenly learn the Flying Thunder God Technique?
Is this Uchiha Sasuke's talent?
Even Kakashi could only attribute this to talent, but he was different from Ebisu.
Kakashi attributed the talent to Sasuke himself, not to the Uchiha clan, because he had seen an Uchiha with poor talent.
"What are you guys talking about?"
Asuma looked at Kakashi and Sasuke who were speaking in riddles, his mind full of confusion.
What's going on?
The youth was inexplicably showing off.
The elder was shocked for some unknown reason.
What are these two doing?
He couldn't understand it at all!
"Asuma-sensei, let me show you!"
Sasuke still had a smile on his face as he raised the kunai with the explosive tag tied to it.
He had to show it.
This was not only for Asuma, but also for Kakashi.
To prove that he had mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Sasuke's wrist holding the kunai flicked slightly.
Suddenly.
A cold light flashed.
The kunai went straight towards Asuma's face.
"..."
"..."
"..."
The three of them were speechless at the same time.
Sasuke was clearly aiming at the spot next to Asuma, wanting to use the Flying Thunder God formula on the kunai for space-time transfer.
But...
He threw it off!
It just happened to fly towards Asuma's face.
Kakashi was speechless because he felt that this demonstration was a bit exaggerated.
You can demonstrate it.
But you didn't have to shoot it at Asuma's face.
This was too disrespectful to the elders!
Asuma was the most speechless one. He looked at the kunai flying towards him, his mouth twitching slightly.
He just asked a question!
Why did you throw a kunai directly at him!
The younger generation is getting harder and harder to teach!
"Whew!"
Asuma took a deep breath, his eyes focused on the incoming kunai.
He didn't know what Sasuke meant.
It was just that the kunai didn't have any strength, it wasn't fast and it was still falling, he didn't know what kind of trick this was.
The explosive tag wasn't opened either.
Strange!
Asuma turned his body slightly, he only needed a simple movement to avoid this kunai.
Immediately.
Asuma turned his body and easily dodged the kunai.
"What's so special about this?"
Asuma's eyes were full of不解, he still didn't understand what Sasuke meant.
Whoosh!
However.
At this moment.
Sasuke's figure suddenly disappeared into thin air.
Almost instantly.
Sasuke's figure appeared directly beside Asuma, his right hand grabbed the kunai, and he stabbed it back at Asuma with precision.
"Flying Thunder God Slash!"
Sasuke's voice rang in Asuma's ears.
The sudden change made Asuma's face change drastically.
The cold light from the kunai at close range made Asuma smell the breath of death.
Retreat!
Asuma instinctively pushed back.
Whoosh!
Asuma was a Jonin after all, his reaction speed was extremely fast, he barely dodged the impact of Sasuke's kunai.
+30
At this moment.
The number in front of Sasuke's eyes jumped, completing an increase in points.
"Sasuke, are you serious?"
Asuma's eyes widened, he clearly felt the blade of the kunai划过in front of his throat, almost touching his skin.
"I know Asuma-sensei would definitely dodge my attack easily, I just wanted to show you my strength more realistically!"
Sasuke put the kunai back into his ninja tool bag.
Sasuke's tone was light, as if what he had just done was a very ordinary thing.
It gave people the feeling that it was not worth mentioning at all.
+30
The number in front of Sasuke's eyes jumped again.
The increase in points was very generous.
This made Sasuke understand a truth, that is, he must show off.
He had been too low-key before.
He had tried so hard to be low-key and show off, but he didn't get many points.
Now, as long as he showed something unexpected to others, he could achieve a very good showing off effect.
Why not!
The increase in points was the increase in strength.
Sasuke understood this truth more deeply.
If the Pretend System was cowardly, it would grow too slowly!
He had to pretend!
No more low-key!
I'm revealing my cards!
I'm not pretending anymore!
I am Konoha's strongest Genin!
"Ahem..."
Asuma's old face suddenly turned red when he was praised by Sasuke, and all the anger he had just felt disappeared.
He was still a child!
Why bother with a child!
Moreover, what happened just now was...
"Flying Thunder God!"
Asuma suddenly reacted and stared at Sasuke with wide eyes.
So that's how it is!
What they were talking about just now was the Flying Thunder God Technique!
No wonder his father sent Sasuke over!
Back then, the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato, was known throughout the ninja world as the Yellow Flash, making the ninjas of Iwagakure terrified.
The Iwagakure higher-ups had said at the time.
When you see Konoha's Yellow Flash, run immediately, don't be an enemy of him!
His father wanted to use this battle to tell the entire ninja world that Konoha had a new "Yellow Flash"!
Oh my god!
Asuma exclaimed in his heart, he solved the small question marks that popped up in his head one by one.
No wonder his usually conservative father suddenly became so radical!
Everything made sense!
...
Sasuke looked at Asuma who was lost in his own world, not knowing what he was thinking, and didn't bother him.
"Kakashi-sensei, can you agree to let me go with you to assassinate now!"
Sasuke stared at Kakashi, his dark eyes filled with strong confidence.
"You can come with me, but you can't leave me too far."
Kakashi hesitated slightly, then pointed his left finger at his right shoulder.
"Sasuke, you leave a Flying Thunder God formula here, so you can return to my side at any time."
"Yes." Sasuke immediately responded and walked towards Kakashi.
Sasuke raised his hand and patted Kakashi's shoulder.
Om!
Instantly.
A Flying Thunder God formula containing space-time energy appeared on Kakashi's right shoulder.
Starting point.
Two words containing profound power appeared on Kakashi's arm, completing a special cultural output.
At this time, Asuma came back to his senses and just happened to see Sasuke imprint the Flying Thunder God formula on the spot, his heart was extremely shocked.
Someone in Konoha had really mastered this heaven-defying space-time ninjutsu again!
"Sasuke, does the Third Hokage have any other instructions?"
Kakashi asked after Sasuke finished imprinting the Flying Thunder God formula.
"No more." Sasuke shook his head.
"In that case, let's go back, make our own arrangements, and prepare to start the operation!"
Kakashi's voice contained a killing intent, the ninjas of Iwagakure were considered "old friends".
(End of chapter)
Chapter 113: Elite Jonin Kakashi Hatake!
Under everyone's eager anticipation, the trio who had ventured into the small forest returned. Each of them wore a grave expression.
Of course, Sasuke's usual emotionless face was interpreted by them as "grave."
"Asuma, I'll leave this to you," Kakashi said, glancing at Asuma.
His current mission was assassination. He only needed to take Sasuke with him. The rest would follow Asuma's command, including Might Guy, who was in charge of the siege.
"Alright, leave it to me," Asuma nodded. He took a cigarette from his pocket, then a lighter.
Flick!
Asuma lit the cigarette and took a long drag, exhaling a smoke ring.
"All Konoha ninja, assemble!" Asuma's voice was stern, laced with an unquestionable determination. He had been eager for this battle, holding back until now, finally able to unleash his strength.
"Guy, your team doesn't need to assemble. Come with me!"
Kakashi turned and walked back into the small forest.
Guy didn't say anything, calmly following Kakashi into the woods.
Now, the only ones idle were Sasuke and the three genin of Team Guy.
"Sorry for getting you all involved in this. I hope you all stay safe," Sasuke's gaze swept over the three members of Team Guy, his voice laced with apology.
That's right! It was an apology!
Sasuke knew very well that if he hadn't changed the intel, Team Guy would be on their way back according to the original plan.
However, since he had "released" himself, things wouldn't be that simple!
+5
After Sasuke finished speaking, the numbers in front of his eyes jumped, deemed by the system as "showing off."
"What does this have to do with you?!" Neji retorted. He had already seen through Sasuke's nature - shameless when it came to showing off.
Lee didn't say anything. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he didn't know what to say. He sensed Sasuke's apology. It was genuine! But why apologize? He couldn't understand!
If he couldn't understand, then he wouldn't think about it, and wouldn't say anything!
"Sasuke, I know you're strong, but I hope you won't push yourself. You must stay safe!" Tenten said with concern.
However, her eyes were filled with reproach as she looked at Sasuke. She thought he was like a little madman. When he went crazy, he didn't know what he was doing. This guy could go without rest for a day, without sleep for a night. At this rate, even without enemies, he would probably wear himself out.
"Don't worry about me. I'm the strongest genin in Konoha. These Iwa ninja can't hurt me!" Sasuke said solemnly.
+10
The numbers in front of Sasuke's eyes jumped, but the increase wasn't as ideal as he had imagined.
Doesn't this count as showing off?
Sasuke was puzzled. He had already revealed his strength, no longer being low-key, so why only 10 points?
Could it be that these people thought he was just bragging?
"..." Tenten was speechless.
Really! Still bragging at a time like this!
Neji looked at Sasuke with dissatisfaction. He wanted to say that he was the strongest genin in Konoha, but he knew that was no longer possible.
"Hmph!" Thinking of this, Neji snorted coldly.
"Sasuke, I advise you to be serious. Do you know what war means?" Neji said angrily.
"Of course I know." Sasuke looked at Neji and said indifferently, "War means new legends will be born."
+12
The numbers in front of Sasuke's eyes jumped, but there was no increasing trend.
"You're still dreaming of being a hero!" Neji sneered. "You just said that you're the strongest genin in Konoha. I agree with that, but I must remind you, no matter how strong a genin is, they are still a genin."
"Sorry, I am Konoha's genin!" Sasuke raised a finger and wagged it in front of Neji, completely ignoring his words.
+10
The numbers in front of Sasuke increased, but not by much.
Sigh! Sasuke sighed inwardly.
Why don't you understand?! Not every Konoha genin can be called "Konoha's genin." That's a title for someone with cheats!
Tap tap tap tap...
At this moment, Kakashi and Guy walked out of the small forest, both with serious expressions.
"Team Guy, come with me."
After Guy came out, his eyes swept over Lee, Neji, and Tenten, finally landing on Sasuke.
"Sasuke, you follow Kakashi!"
"Yes!"
Sasuke immediately responded. He already knew this outcome from their discussion in the forest.
Then, Guy left with the three genin of Team Guy.
Thus, Sasuke's mission with Team Guy temporarily came to an end.
Whether they would meet again depended on the development of subsequent missions.
Many things had now taken an unknown path.
"Sasuke, come with me."
Kakashi beckoned to Sasuke and turned to walk in another direction.
"Yes!"
Sasuke followed behind Kakashi, the two walking towards the depths of the forest.
After about five minutes of walking, there was no one around.
"Let me formally introduce myself. I am Kakashi Hatake, an elite jonin of Konoha!" Kakashi asked directly, "Sasuke, I heard from Guy that your chakra nature is lightning?"
"Yes," Sasuke nodded.
"That's unexpected. The Uchiha clan is mostly known for fire-style ninja. Lightning-style ninja are quite rare."
Kakashi stared at Sasuke, his gaze slightly softening.
He didn't know why, but every time he looked at Sasuke, at the Uchiha clan's emblem, he would think of his deceased best friend.
"Sasuke, your eyes..." Kakashi asked tentatively.
"Sharingan?" Sasuke's dark eyes instantly turned blood red, two tomoe appearing in them.
+5
The numbers in front of Sasuke jumped. This number wasn't high, clearly indicating that the Sharingan didn't have much of a "showing off" effect on Kakashi.
"Two-tomoe Sharingan!"
Looking at Sasuke's eyes, Kakashi saw another figure before him. It was a young man wearing goggles. It was also during the war with Iwa ninja.
Sasuke's two-tomoe Sharingan evoked many past memories for Kakashi.
I absolutely cannot let anything happen to Sasuke here! Kakashi swore silently in his heart.
"Sasuke, there's still some time before the mission starts. Since you're a lightning-style ninja, I'll teach you a jutsu. If you can learn it in a short time, it will be of great help to you in carrying out the assassination mission."
After seeing Sasuke's Sharingan, Kakashi already had the intention of taking him as a disciple.
In his opinion, Sasuke was able to learn the Flying Thunder God right after graduation. With such talent, he might not be unable to learn his jutsu in a short time.
(End of chapter)
Chapter 114 Inheritance!
Kakashi's lightning style ninjutsu.
With these two keywords combined, Sasuke didn't even need to guess.
Lightning Release: Chidori!
In the original story, Sasuke learned this technique from Kakashi and became increasingly proficient with it.
An aggressive ninjutsu after a long time!
The three techniques Sasuke currently possessed were all functional and had already reached the level of perfect mastery with full proficiency.
This felt like having three top-tier support characters ready to go.
All that was needed was a damage dealer!
This would be the evolution from Flying Raijin Slash to Flying Raijin Chidori!
Moreover, when using the Flying Raijin Second Stage, he could directly pierce the enemy's heart!
Not only that.
Sasuke now possessed the Lightning Release: Lightning Cloak, which allowed him to transform his entire body's chakra into lightning during its use, greatly amplifying lightning style ninjutsu.
Based on his current equipment, Chidori was the most suitable offensive ninjutsu for Sasuke, bar none.
If Sasuke had to choose, Chidori would take priority even over Rasengan.
"Thank you, Kakashi-sensei!"
Sasuke expressed his gratitude directly; he understood that the person before him would be extremely biased towards him for a while.
Moreover, Kakashi was one of the few people he could trust.
Sasuke had a trust list in his mind.
Those were based on the conclusions he drew from the original story.
Uzumaki Naruto!
Uchiha Itachi!
Hatake Kakashi!
These three were the people Sasuke could trust!
Even if it included his ruthless older brother, Uchiha Itachi!
However.
Sasuke knew very well that Itachi would not harm him!
As for the others.
Especially the higher-ups of Konoha Village.
Sasuke wouldn't completely trust them!
Who knew what kind of dirty schemes they were brewing!
Because of this.
Sasuke had no pressure when it came to stirring things up!
"Sasuke, don't thank me yet. Whether you can learn this technique and to what extent is still unknown!" Kakashi said seriously.
"I will study diligently." Sasuke replied with equal seriousness.
"Let's begin!"
Kakashi was very satisfied with Sasuke's attitude and held great approval for him in his heart.
This feeling was quite strange.
He looked at Sasuke as if he were looking at his own legacy.
Or rather, his and Obito's legacy!
Kakashi finally understood Gai a little now.
Previously, when he saw Gai teaching Lee, he mostly thought Gai was acting out of sympathy, simply seeing a junior with similar energy.
Now Kakashi understood.
Gai already saw Lee as another version of himself!
Kakashi now looked at Sasuke with the same feeling.
The same chakra nature, both possessing the Sharingan, and both young geniuses!
"Kakashi-sensei, before we start, let me rest for a while. I rushed all the way here and my body is a bit tired."
Sasuke made an excuse.
Now wasn't the best time to focus on learning; he needed to organize his thoughts.
"Hmm, let's rest for ten minutes. Have a soldier pill."
Kakashi nodded; he was very accommodating towards Sasuke.
He took out a soldier pill from his ninja pouch and handed it to Sasuke.
"Thank you!"
Sasuke didn't hesitate and swallowed the soldier pill directly; he had to play out this act now.
The soldier pill melted in his mouth and instantly turned into a warm current, flowing through the meridians throughout his body.
Not only did it restore Sasuke's physical strength to a certain extent, but it also recovered a lot of the chakra he had consumed using the functional Flying Raijin earlier.
Immediately after.
Sasuke sat down, leaning against a tree, and closed his eyes, assuming a meditative posture.
Kakashi leaned against another tree, staring blankly at the stones on the ground, lost in thought.
Sasuke closed his eyes.
He opened the system panel.
Current system points: 419 points.
Hmm...
Should he add points to his Ninjutsu attribute?
His current Ninjutsu attribute was B-rank. Although the points weren't enough to raise it to A-rank, they could bring the progress bar to 80%, granting him stronger learning abilities.
Sasuke hesitated.
In the process of learning Chidori from Kakashi, there would definitely be opportunities to show off.
Now, in order to learn Chidori as quickly as possible, it seemed like he could try adding points to his Ninjutsu attribute.
Sasuke didn't expect Kakashi to teach him Chidori now; if he had known, he would have pretended for a bit longer.
He opened the [Attributes] panel.
He directly took out 400 attribute points and added them all to his Ninjutsu attribute.
Buzz buzz buzz buzz...
In an instant.
Sasuke's brain started to tremble, and an extremely peculiar sensation surged from within his body.
A moment later.
This mysterious and comfortable feeling slowly dissipated.
Sasuke could clearly feel the changes in himself; his ability to learn ninjutsu had been greatly improved.
Current system points: 19 points.
He looked at the [Attributes] list again.
Taijutsu: Rank B: (59/500)
Genjutsu: Rank E: (2/100)
Ninjutsu: Rank B: (400/500)
Strength: Rank B: (282/500)
Speed: Rank D: (163/200)
Sasuke's attribute panel had a very peculiar imbalance, which was that his Genjutsu attribute was still E-rank and had only been increased by 1 point.
Now he didn't have enough points.
He had to show off.
And he had to show off to Kakashi-sensei.
Thinking of this.
Sasuke suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze clear and deep.
Immediately after.
Sasuke slowly stood up, remaining silent.
"Sasuke, are you rested?" Kakashi asked curiously, noticing Sasuke's movements.
"Yeah, I've recovered, but I still have something to do."
As Sasuke spoke, his right hand reached for the weighted wrist guard on his left hand and immediately took it off.
Then, under Kakashi's gaze, Sasuke threw the weighted wrist guard to the ground.
Clang!
The weighted wrist guard collided with the ground, making a heavy sound.
"This..."
Kakashi's eyes widened. He never expected that Sasuke, who looked no different from an ordinary person, was actually wearing such heavy weights.
+10
The numbers in front of Sasuke's eyes jumped.
He could indeed show off!
Sasuke then switched to his left hand and removed the wrist guard from his right hand, casually tossing it to the ground.
Clang!
Another resounding sound.
+10
The numbers in front of Sasuke's eyes jumped again.
His system points were increasing, but Sasuke's actions didn't stop.
Sasuke directly unfastened his weighted vest and, of course, threw it on the ground in front of Kakashi.
Clang!
Another violent crashing sound; these weights made Kakashi's eyes widen.
+15
The numbers jumped.
"Sasuke, you ran all the way here to deliver the intelligence while wearing these weights?" Kakashi asked in shock; he found this unbelievable.
"It's nothing much."
The corners of Sasuke's mouth curled up slightly as his hands began to fiddle with the weighted belt. After unfastening it, he tossed it to the ground, causing another crashing sound upon impact.
"Half of the weights haven't been taken off yet!"
(End of chapter)
*Chapter 115: This Technique is Called Chidori*
——
+20
Sasuke's words immediately surprised Kakashi.
To be carrying so much weight at this age...
Unbelievable!
He's even more hardcore than Gai at the same age!
Kakashi and Gai had been rivals since childhood, and Gai's taijutsu was so powerful that he had a slight edge in their battles.
While Kakashi was still in shock, Sasuke unbuckled the weight belt around his waist.
He tossed it to the ground.
Clang!
A loud sound rang out, and the ground trembled slightly.
Two weighted wristbands, a weighted vest, and a weighted belt.
The combined weight of these was substantial.
Wearing them constantly would put immense pressure on the body.
For a moment...
Kakashi was speechless.
Is this the power of vengeance?
Kakashi attributed Sasuke's drive to Uchiha Itachi. He sighed inwardly, Itachi has really turned his little brother into a ruthless machine!
Next.
Sasuke crouched down and began to untie the weights from his calves.
"This is the last of it," Sasuke said calmly.
+10
The numbers before his eyes jumped, fulfilling Sasuke's goal.
He removed the weights and made sure to announce it, all to quickly earn more points.
He opened the system panel for a look.
Current System Points: 84 points.
Just 20 more!
Sasuke gave himself a command. He wanted to raise his Ninjutsu Attribute to A-rank before learning Chidori.
The learning ability of an A-rank Ninjutsu Attribute would definitely reach a whole new level.
Sasuke knew very well that time was limited. If he could learn Chidori as quickly as possible, it would be a huge advantage.
"Sasuke, you're even more outstanding than I expected. Your physical qualities and cellular activity are perfectly suited for my jutsu."
Kakashi stared at Sasuke with great satisfaction, then began to form hand seals.
His fingers moved.
Kakashi first raised his left hand flat, then his right hand perpendicular to his left, interlacing his fingers to form the Ox seal.
Then the Ox seal changed, his thumb and index finger crossing to form the Hare seal.
Finally, he clasped his palms together, forming the Monkey seal.
"This technique is called Chidori. The hand seal sequence is Ox-Hare-Monkey!"
Bzzzt, bzzzt, bzzzt...
As Kakashi's voice rang out, a piercing, noisy sound crackled from his palm, as if a thousand birds were chirping.
Bzzzt, bzzzt, bzzzt...
A surge of terrifyingly strong electrical current formed between his palms, instantly making his hand like a sharp blade, brimming with penetrating power.
"This is an offensive Lightning Release jutsu I developed, combining Shape Transformation and Nature Transformation. However, this technique has a drawback. It makes the user's vision blurry due to its high speed. It needs to be used in conjunction with the Sharingan to achieve its maximum effect!"
Kakashi held Chidori in his right hand and pushed up his forehead protector with his left, revealing his scarred eye. The crimson three-tomoe Sharingan appeared in Sasuke's sight.
This wasn't the first time Sasuke had seen Kakashi's Sharingan, but it was the first time in the ninja world.
No surprise there!
His face remained expressionless.
"Sasuke, I'll teach you how to use Chidori now, but remember, this jutsu consumes a lot of chakra, especially when used with the Sharingan. You can only use it twice a day at most, and even I can only use it four times!"
As Kakashi spoke, he withdrew the Chidori from his hand. This demonstration had consumed a considerable amount of chakra.
"Kakashi-sensei, you can rest assured about that. I have plenty of chakra because my constitution is special!" Sasuke said with a slight smile.
With his current cheat-like constitution, comparable to that of the Edo Tensei, he didn't need to worry about running out of "mana."
There was no need to hide it from Kakashi.
He would also be using the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu when learning Chidori later.
It was better to be upfront.
+10
The numbers before Sasuke's eyes increased again. His words were considered "showing off" and earned him system points.
Current System Points: 94 points.
Only 6 more to go.
"Special constitution?"
Kakashi gave Sasuke a serious look and pulled his forehead protector back down, covering his Sharingan.
Can't afford to burn through all that chakra!
What special constitution do the Uchiha have?
A big question mark appeared in Kakashi's mind.
In his understanding, the Uchiha clan pursued jutsu above all else.
They were a clan of finesse and technique!
Even his deceased best friend was a "no-technique" technique-type ninja!
But when he was in the ANBU, he had contact with Uchiha Itachi, Sasuke's older brother, and he didn't see any special constitution in him either!
"Kakashi-sensei, I don't know how to explain it. There's a mysterious power within me. When my chakra runs out, it just keeps welling up endlessly!" Sasuke explained forcefully. He couldn't exactly tell him he had a system, or worse, that it was due to quantum mechanics.
+15
The numbers before his eyes jumped, and his points increased.
Reached it!
Sasuke was overjoyed and immediately opened the system interface without hesitation.
Current System Points: 111 points.
Add points to attributes!
Sasuke believed that he could replenish the consumed points during his training with Kakashi.
Right now, he needed to raise his Ninjutsu Attribute to A-rank.
Increase his jutsu learning ability and the power of his jutsu.
Add points!
100 points!
Buzz!
Sasuke's body trembled, and a peculiar sensation surged through him.
Ninjutsu Attribute: Rank A: (0/1000)
Current System Points: 11 points.
There's a progress bar too!
Sasuke had thought that reaching A-rank was the maximum level. Even the coverage area within the hexagonal frame had reached its limit.
Could there be an S-rank?!
Learning truly has no limits!
However...
He was very satisfied to have raised his Ninjutsu Attribute to A-rank for now.
"Endless chakra?"
Kakashi's eyes widened in disbelief, and deep within them lay an indescribable envy.
This is infinite mana!
A permanent Blue Buff!
The most coveted thing for those who lack chakra!
Kakashi looked Sasuke up and down. He was certain that Sasuke wasn't a jinchuriki and couldn't borrow chakra from a tailed beast.
So where did this endless chakra come from?
"Sasuke, I'll start teaching you Chidori now. During the learning process, I'll assess your chakra and re-determine the limit on how many times you can use it per day!"
Kakashi said seriously.
Now, he wasn't sure if Sasuke truly possessed infinite chakra or was just bragging.
He would find out soon enough!
"Sasuke, listen carefully. I'm going to teach you how to use Chidori!"
Next.
Kakashi carefully explained the method of using Chidori to Sasuke.
The hand seals.
The chakra manipulation.
And so on.
He was very patient throughout the teaching process, which lasted a full half hour.
"Sasuke, you now know the basic theory. Try using it!"
