The days of being a puppeteer in Konoha

Chapter 278 This is not Rasengan
Speaking of this, Minato's thoughts couldn't help but drift back to the experience of being attacked twice by the Tailed Beast Ball a few days ago.

The dazzling white light that looked like the falling sun and the huge crater created by the explosion were still vivid in his mind.

To be honest, if he hadn't been lucky enough to get Hideki's direct or indirect assistance twice, he would have had no choice but to run away in the face of such a devastating attack...

It was precisely because of this feeling of powerlessness that prompted him to clarify the way forward in just a few days, which was to master the power to defeat the tailed beasts head-on.

Advanced sealing techniques, summoning beasts, and even the fairy techniques that teacher Jiraiya mentioned were all within his consideration.

But for the time being, he decided to use the Tailed Beast Ball as a template to develop a powerful offensive ninjutsu.

The reason is actually quite obvious...

"Actually, this technique is not only for myself, but also for Kushina..."

Minato couldn't help but sighed.
"After experiencing the horror of the tailed beasts myself, I finally realized what a terrifying monster is sealed inside Kushina."

No, no, no, you have no idea at all.

Hideki on the side complained silently in his heart.

I don’t know whether the Six Paths Sage is biased or he is not good at calculation.

Anyway, according to the performance in the original work, half a nine-tailed fox is probably enough to fight against several one to seven-tailed foxes.

Not to mention that what is sealed inside Kushina now is a complete Nine-Tails.

Otherwise, the First Hokage would not have been so generous as to distribute the other tailed beasts to other ninja villages, leaving only one Nine-Tails for Konoha.

Perhaps in his opinion, as long as Konoha's Jinchuriki can control the Nine-Tails, he can ensure peace in Konoha.

As for whether the Jinchūriki can control the Nine-Tails?

For the Shodaime who was able to crush the Nine-Tailed Fox with one hand after giving it nine hundred and ninety-nine arms, this was probably a natural thing...

No way, no way, it's not possible that there is a Jinchuriki who can't control the Nine-Tails and ends up killing her and her husband, the Hokage, along with it?
Minato felt that Hideki was looking at him in a strange way, but he continued:
"Although Konoha won a great victory in the war against Iwagakure this time, it still failed to change the plight of Konoha being surrounded by wolves."

"Once the Third Ninja World War breaks out, Kushina, as a Jinchūriki, may have to step onto the battlefield and fight with other Jinchūriki."

Indeed, even though Konoha is hiding Kushina very well now.

If the critical moment comes, even if they want to use Kushina as a disposable nuclear bomb, the Konoha high-level officials will never blink an eye.

Shuimen said again:

"But with Kushina's current control over the Nine-Tails, let alone transforming into a tailed beast like Han and Lao Zi, even just suppressing the Nine-Tails from causing trouble is quite difficult."

"That's why I thought of developing new ninjutsu by imitating the Tailed Beast Ball."

"This way, even if Kushina can't control the Nine-Tails, she can still take advantage of her huge amount of chakra and have the ability to compete with other Chuuriki."

"If she can really control the Nine-Tails in the future, then she will be able to learn the Tailed Beast Ball with half the effort."

Hideki nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

There is indeed nothing wrong with Minato's logic.

If everything goes well, Kushina should be able to have quite good combat power with her expertise in Shadow Clone Technique and this new technique.

No wonder Tsunade also said in the original work that the technique mastered by Naruto is exactly the same as Kushina's.

Hideki then asked curiously:
"If that's the case, then why didn't you tell Kushina just now, Minato?"

Minato shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"Kushina already has enough responsibility on her shoulders."

"I have to control the Nine-Tails, research the sealing technique, and be responsible for the development of the programming-style sealing technique."

"If possible, I don't want to add to her burden. It would be best if she could continue to be happy..."

"So I plan to develop this technique to a certain extent first, and then teach it to her."

There was a tender look in Minato's eyes.

Damn it, I accidentally got fed a mouthful of dog food again.

Have you ever thought about how I, a single guy, feel? Hideki quietly rolled his eyes.

However, as one of the culprits who added pressure to Kushina, he felt a little guilty and was embarrassed to complain.

But this is fine.

The move that Naruto has been focusing on practicing for more than 700 episodes is finally being created.

Yes, what Hideki was talking about was the legendary snail...

"Chakra yarn ball."

Minato suddenly said with interest,
"Actually, I temporarily named that move the Chakra Yarn Ball."

Yes, yes, it’s a ball of yarn…

Fall! No way!
If Naruto's ultimate move was called this name, the original work would definitely not be popular!
Where is the Rasengan I wanted?
Hideki complained madly in his mind.

Is it true that Minato’s talent for naming is still so outrageous?

But even so, compared with the usual long and childish names, this move name is still a bit different.

Fortunately, before Hideki could ask any questions, Minato began to explain:

"In fact, it's all thanks to Hideki."

"Actually, after I had the idea to develop a ninjutsu that imitated the Tailed Beast Ball, I was troubled about how to compress a large amount of chakra to obtain considerable destructive power."

"Didn't you give us two pocket puppet beasts before?"

"In order to make the chakra lines emitted from the handle stronger, Kushina and I have also conducted some research."

"So I also know the technique of using chakra thread to compress its volume and increase its strength by twisting multiple strands together."

"If we go one step further and repeatedly roll the chakra thread into a spherical shape like a ball of yarn..."

Minato stretched out his right hand and concentrated on pouring chakra into his palm, creating a chakra line from it, and controlled it to rotate continuously, rolling itself into an increasingly solid sphere...

"Look, isn't this very similar to the Tailed Beast Ball?"

Minato smiled, "It's just that it can only be compressed to this extent right now."

Hideki looked at the chakra ball in Minato's hand, which seemed familiar yet somewhat different. His mouth opened slightly, his mind a little confused.

Fortunately, he subconsciously activated the art of telepathy, and had an extra brain to think with. He finally recovered and could not help but hold his forehead in silence.

I didn't expect that this little butterfly of mine would even interfere with Minato's ideas on developing the Rasengan.

And you know what, this thing that seems like a ball of yarn might actually lead to the same result, the Rasengan.

Because strictly speaking, Minato's thinking cannot be said to be wrong, just the order has changed.

According to Jiraiya's teaching process, to learn the Rasengan, one should first learn to make the chakra rotate, then continuously increase the chakra output, and enhance the destructive power through repeated compression and maintenance.

This time, Minato managed to condense a high-quality chakra ball, but he didn't expect, or was unable to rotate it at high speed, thereby further compressing the chakra.

No wonder Minato asked for his help.

When it comes to playing with chakra lines, probably no one in Konoha can compare to him as a puppeteer.

I guess Minato is still planning to rely on Hideki's precise perception ability to help him design a reasonable way to curl the yarn, just like making a chakra handmade knife...

Since he knew the standard answer, Hideki was not in a hurry to tell Minato.

It will be interesting to see whether Minato can have an epiphany on his own, or continue to stick to this path and develop a Rasengan that is different from the original.

So Hideki readily agreed to Minato's request for assistance.

However, since it was already late, they decided to find another time to work together on the research and development.

After that, Hideki said goodbye to Minato and finally returned to the orphanage.
