Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

While this gave a boost to the common people of Konoha, the biggest problem of the Konoha Ninja Academy remained unresolved.

In Konoha, clan ninjas remain the mainstream. Clan secret techniques, clan Jonin, clan ties, and other factors together form a vast network that firmly controls most of Konoha's power.

To give a few more simple examples, the Nara clan always acts as the Hokage's secretary; the members attending Konoha's high-level meetings are always the clan leaders; and the instructors assigned after graduation who are Jonin are always ninja clan members.

Even if there are exceptions, they are still extremely rare compared to the vast number of ordinary ninjas.

Therefore, unless a commoner is exceptionally talented, after graduating from the Ninja Academy, becoming a Special Jonin is their limit. If they are deployed to the battlefield, they will just be cannon fodder and forever remain background figures.

It's cruel, but that's the reality of Konoha.

As long as one person in a ninja clan holds a high position and the clan's strength isn't too weak, a few words or an exchange of benefits can secure a rare opportunity for a favored junior that ordinary ninjas dream of.

"Thank you father."

Akira Hatake accepted it readily and did not feel anything was wrong with it.

If there are conveniences, you should take advantage of them; otherwise, how could you survive the "farce" of fighting for bloodlines in the later stages of the Naruto world?

As for eliminating the shortcomings in Konoha's talent cultivation, it's not that Akira Hatake has no ideas, but now is not the time for him to realize his ambitions.

Akira Hatake would never do things personally; he'd rather be a strategist who only talks the talk or a behind-the-scenes boss—that would be much more comfortable.

After all, no one can resist the temptation of winning without effort.

"I've finished eating, Father."

After finishing a small bowl of rice in a few bites, Akira Hatake, who had already eaten two meals, couldn't eat anymore.

Seeing that Akira had put down his chopsticks, Sakumo Hatake did not blame him, but instead asked another question.

"Akira, Kakashi asked me a question before he went on his mission today," Sakumo Hatake said solemnly. "Do you really think our Hatake family's swordsmanship can reach the level you envision?"

"can!"

Akira Hatake answered decisively, “Father, you are an experienced man, and you even created the ‘New Hatake Sword Technique’ that incorporates Lightning Release into swordsmanship. You should be able to tell that my idea is not unfounded.”

“But there are still too many restrictions…” Hatake Sakumo’s heart stirred slightly, and he raised some questions. “Chakra metal is the first hurdle that cannot be bypassed, and how to continue to improve the power of swordsmanship is also a major problem.”

"Chakra metal will come in the future, you can trust me."

"Okay, but how do you plan to solve the second problem?" Sakumo Hatake didn't pry into the details, but instead asked for a solution to the second problem.

"Magic!"

"Sage Techniques?" Sakumo Hatake's expression darkened. "Our clan's summoning beasts are ninja dogs. Although some of them have outstanding abilities, the ninja dog clan does not belong to the three great holy lands, so the inheritance of Sage Techniques is incomplete, or even non-existent."

“I know that.” Akira Hatake naturally knew about the Hatake family’s summoning beasts. “But besides Sage Techniques, there is another idea that is only at the theoretical level.”

"What's your idea?" Sakumo Hatake asked, sounding slightly impatient.

Strength is the pursuit of almost everyone in the ninja world, and Hatake Sakumo is no exception.

“Compress your chakra,” Akira Hatake said, “Chakra is like water. A large amount of water can destroy an entire town, but if there isn’t enough water, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t have that kind of power.”

"You mean..." Hatake Sakumo had a slight understanding, but he still hadn't grasped the key point.

"There's a third transformation of chakra!" Akira Hatake exclaimed, surprising everyone.

Sakumo Hatake sat up straight, quietly waiting for Akira Hatake to continue.

Chapter 32 envisions a third type of chakra transformation.

As is well known, chakra undergoes two transformations: chakra form transformation and chakra nature transformation.

Chakra shape transformation is easy to understand; it involves changing the shape of a ninjutsu to achieve special effects, such as the ultimate form of chakra shape transformation—the Rasengan.

The nature transformation of chakra is somewhat mind-bending and difficult to master.

Take wind-style chakra as an example. Its advantage is sharpness, but its weakness is fire-style chakra. Because wind fuels fire, it can often make the enemy's fire-style ninjutsu even stronger, which is undoubtedly digging a hole for oneself.

However, if the characteristics of fire chakra are added to wind chakra, the disadvantages of using only wind chakra can be perfectly avoided, and the power of ninjutsu can be greatly increased.

This is the nature transformation of chakra, and its main theoretical basis is the mutual generation and restraint relationship between the five types of chakra.

However, the examples above are not the limits of chakra nature transformation; they are merely the most basic applications of chakra nature transformation.

When the nature transformation of two chakras is combined to its limit, a bloodline limit can be formed.

For example: Wind + Fire = Scorching Release Kekkei Genkai, Wind + Water = Ice Release Kekkei Genkai, Fire + Earth = Lava Release Kekkei Genkai, and so on...

However, if the nature transformations of the three chakras are combined, what is derived is Blood Elimination, such as the Dust Release of the Tsuchikage Onoki.

If one combines the five chakra nature transformations with Yin-Yang Release, then one will form a Bloodline Limit, a pure Six Paths level figure, and one with exceptional strength.

But precisely because of this, the training of chakra nature transformation is definitely the most difficult.

The third type of chakra transformation envisioned by Akira Hatake is significantly less powerful than the peak chakra nature transformation, but it is much easier to cultivate.

Moreover, the third type of chakra transformation has no bloodline restrictions, making it the best shortcut for ordinary bloodlines to achieve Six Paths-level combat power.

Of course, without the bloodline of the Sage of Six Paths, one cannot fully become a Six Paths level being; one can only be on par with a Six Paths level being in terms of combat strength.

In other words, as long as one successfully cultivates the third chakra transformation, one will be absolutely invincible below the Six Paths level, and at the limit above the Six Paths level, one can exchange one for another.

"What exactly is this third type of chakra transformation?!"

After waiting a few seconds, seeing that Akira Hatake was still thinking and hadn't spoken, Sakumo Hatake couldn't help but urge him on.

After more than six years of getting along, Sakumo Hatake trusted Akira Hatake a lot and was very willing to listen to his judgments and suggestions.

Moreover, Akira Hatake has shown great intelligence since childhood, with all sorts of strange and wonderful theories emerging one after another, so Sakumo Hatake naturally had high expectations for him.

Moreover, many of the things Akira Hatake said seemed outrageous at first glance, but upon closer examination, they made a great deal of sense.

"Ahem, I was thinking about something and got distracted." Hatake Akira cleared his throat and explained, then got to the point, "The third type of chakra transformation is compression, which compresses the 'surface' into a 'point,' concentrating all the characteristics of chakra, and using the same amount of chakra in volume to obtain the same amount of chakra with the maximum power!"

"From surface to point?" Sakumo Hatake seemed to have an epiphany.

Snapped.

Akira Hatake snapped his fingers.

"That's the idea. For a specific reference, it should be the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju's Water Release: Water Severing Wave." Akira Hatake gave an example: "When water is compressed to a certain extent and its release space is restricted, the water can become a sharp blade, capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks."

"The same goes for chakra. When chakra is compressed to a certain degree and controlled within a certain range of explosion through shape changes, the power unleashed by this technique will be astonishing."

"And our Hatake family's swordsmanship clearly fits this description, since the blades are long and sharp, and the sword energy generated when we swing them is also like that."

"If you compress chakra and inject it into sword energy, or combine it with the 'New Hatake Sword Technique' created by my father, then the destructive power it causes will completely reach the level of the top-tier bloodline limit, and may even surpass the Bloodline Elimination!"

"In my vision, this third type of chakra transformation is a comprehensive transformation. It combines the form transformation and simple nature transformation of chakra, and finally compresses them to form the ultimate form that breaks through the surface with a point!"

"If this idea can be realized, then a simple swing of the sword will carry the immense power to split the sea and cleave mountains. Whether against a single opponent or a group, at this stage, almost no one can withstand a single blow!"

As he got more excited, Akira Hatake's tone became increasingly high-spirited, while Sakumo Hatake, who was listening nearby, also looked radiant.

Akira Hatake was like a pioneer of theory. Although he could not provide a substantial demonstration, the inspiration he provided undoubtedly served as an enlightenment mentor for Sakumo Hatake, a well-established genius.

Inspiration can be really important sometimes!

While monetizing inspiration requires a solid foundation and sufficient talent, this is really not a problem for Sakumo Hatake.

How could "Konoha White Fang," who could elevate the Hatake sword technique to new heights, be an ordinary person?

As for White Fang's ninja sword, it did indeed limit Sakumo Hatake's development, turning his originally expansive and powerful swordsmanship into a petty, assassination-type swordsmanship.

However, to be fair, once Akira Hatake provides Sakumo Hatake with a practical inspiration, given time, Sakumo Hatake will be able to redefine the Hatake swordsmanship once again!

"Form transformation fixes the slender shape of the chakra, nature transformation incorporates the sharpness of wind, the diffusion and body activation of lightning, and the plasticity and softness of water, and finally compresses it..."

Sakumo Hatake muttered to himself, his chopsticks now being used as a ninja sword, which he was brandishing incessantly. "If that's the case, and paired with a ninja sword with good chakra conductivity, then one strike..."

Sakumo Hatake gently swung down the wooden chopsticks in his hand.

puff,

There was no burst of sword energy, no earth-shattering phenomenon, and no visible chakra fluctuation. All that remained was that the wooden chopsticks turned into dust, disappearing silently from the father and son's sight without the wind blowing them away.

ummm

This... is truly terrifying!

"Father...you...you...did it?"

Akira Hatake's stammering was enough to show his inner turmoil. Sakumo Hatake's talent was terrifying; it was chakra form transformation, three chakra nature transformations, plus chakra compression!

"No, I've only just gotten a few clues." Hatake Sakumo came back to his senses and came out of the state that resembled an epiphany. "Besides, the chakra conductivity of the chopsticks is close to zero, so the experimental results are not satisfactory."

"Thank you, Ming!"

Sakumo Hatake bowed slightly to Akira Hatake, a rare occurrence for him. Considering they were father and son, this gesture by Sakumo Hatake was a way of lowering his own status.

Seeing this, Akira Hatake dodged away, feeling somewhat overwhelmed.

Just kidding. Although Akira Hatake's soul comes from the 21st century, his body is truly a gift from Sakumo Hatake. The blood relation is unavoidable.

"Father, please don't do this to me, I can't take it!"

"Alright, don't worry about that. You need to know what your advice means to me, and what it means to the future of the Hatake family!"

Sakumo Hatake waved his hand at Akira Hatake, "You can go and rest after you've finished cleaning up the dishes. I need to go out and ask the Third Hokage for advice."

Although Akira Hatake didn't want to work or have anything to do with Hiruzen Sarutobi anymore, it was undeniable that Hiruzen Sarutobi was known as the "Ninja World Doctor" and was extremely knowledgeable and authoritative in the areas of chakra form transformation and nature transformation.

Sakumo Hatake is only proficient in Lightning Release. Although he has some knowledge of Wind Release and Water Release, he is far from being proficient in them, so it is inevitable that he will have to ask for advice.

“Yes, Father, but there is one more thing I need to tell you.” Akira Hatake said solemnly.

Now that his idea for a third type of chakra transformation has a chance of success, he needs to plan ahead for future enhancements.

Chapter 33 New Year's Day of Konoha Year 44.

The ninja world is an unfair world, and it gets worse and worse as you go on.

The "hard-working genius" ultimately became a complete joke, with Rock Lee, who was "titled" for over 300 episodes, being the best example.

Similarly, there's Might Guy, the man who almost kicked the finale out of the competition. The price of his tragic dance was burning his life as fuel, which can be said to be the most glorious moment for someone without bloodline.

But this moment of glory came at the cost of his life; all his efforts and desperate struggles were barely enough to severely injure Uchiha Madara.

Isn't that pathetic?

sad!
