Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swords Begins in Kumogakure

Chapter 98 Obtaining the Thunder Shadow Secret Technique (Eighth Update)

With his mind clear and refreshed, Tamura Hao quickly left home, took a hot bath at a public bathhouse, changed into his Anbu uniform, put on his mask, and went to the Raikage Building.

"Lord Raikage, it's time for me to set off!"

Chidori has already been developed. What remains is the extended application of its form changes and the Raikiri series with further changes in properties. We can explore that slowly and there's no rush.

The most important thing to do at this stage is to leave the village and study abroad in the Land of Iron to learn the purest samurai swordsmanship, so as to further improve one's swordsmanship.

Although the Hidden Cloud Village excels in ninjutsu and taijutsu, it ultimately focuses on ninjutsu, and its swordsmanship is not particularly impressive.

"Has that ninjutsu been developed?"

The Third Raikage, who was training, was surprised. Had it been developed so quickly?

He knew that this disciple was developing a lightning-style ninjutsu, and even understood its general concept and function, so he supported him.

Developing ninjutsu that suits oneself is the starting point for a strong person, and self-created ninjutsu will be more suitable for oneself.

I just didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

"It's a success. I've named it Chidori. All that's left is to expand its form to create a style, as well as explore deeper variations in its properties."

This is the scroll of the Chidori training method; please provide your guidance, teacher.

As he spoke, Tamura Hao handed over the Chidori training scroll that he had prepared.

Although Chidori has been developed, it still has many shortcomings. It would take too long to perfect it on its own. It would be much faster if the Third Raikage were to help.

Of course, the most important thing is to contribute to the village to earn contribution points.

He had previously made some suggestions to further improve the village's contribution system. This way, everyone who contributed ninjutsu could learn it and receive contribution points, which could be used to exchange for many things, especially those good things that money couldn't buy.

"To be given a title in the village!"

The Third Raikage instinctively corrected him, saying that he had investigated the popularity and influence of those books recently, and they were truly outrageous.

Even the war couldn't dampen the book's popularity; in fact, it sold even better.

The war may have brought greater psychological pressure, leading to a greater need for more people.

However, at the same time, his disciple's pen names were also more despised and rejected in public, and he did not want to be associated with them and have his reputation ruined by being pointed at and gossiped about.

What's even more terrifying is that if people knew that the Cloud Village's funds over the past year mainly came from those books, they would be despised and ridiculed by the entire ninja world, and at that time, they would be the eternal sinner of the Cloud Village.

Suppressing his thoughts, he took the scroll to his desk, unfolded it, looked at it, pondered, and then picked up his pen to write down further improvements.

He even wrote many suggestions on the later extended applications and the concept of the lecher.

This Chidori is actually very similar to my Hell Thrust, but it is much easier to cultivate and does not require as much physical fitness, making it very suitable for popularization.

Of course, the destructive power at its limit will be somewhat weaker, but if one has exceptional physical abilities, the effect will not be bad.

In addition, they need to train their dynamic vision more. The Hidden Cloud Village has some methods for this, although the improvement will not be significant, it will be sufficient.

"Make a note of these two scrolls."

After the modifications were completed, the Third Raikage took two scrolls from the drawer and handed them over. He had prepared these two scrolls long ago.

I originally intended to give it to him after he mastered the Yang Seal, but after learning that he had created a new ninjutsu, I held back until now, not wanting to interfere with this disciple's ideas for developing new techniques.

Hell Thrust!

Lightning Release Armor!

"teacher!"

Upon receiving the three scrolls, Tamura Hiroshi was moved when he saw the names on the other two.

This is the Third Raikage's signature skill, especially the Hell Thrust, which is his secret technique and cannot be learned simply by having contribution points.

Even Ye Yueai didn't obtain this secret technique.

"Use your job title!"

The Third Raikage solemnly corrected him, saying that he did not want to ruin his reputation in his later years, and that he should keep this identity hidden for as long as possible, preferably until his death.

This correction immediately dampened Tamura Hiroshi's initial感动 (moved/touched), and he even wanted to say, "I really want to improve!"

The earthen platform beside them shook its head helplessly as it watched the master and apprentice.

"Yes, Lord Raikage."

He responded expressionlessly, then began to carefully peruse the two scrolls of his memory.

Such Raikage-level skills must not be taken out of the Raikage's office, much less leaked, otherwise it would be disastrous if the enemy obtained them and developed a countermeasure.

"There's a purchasing mission in the village. You, Fukai, and A will take some people to the Land of Iron. While you're there, you can also modify the ninja swords you got from Kirigakure."

After Tamura Hao read it three times and made sure he had memorized everything, he returned the scroll and the Third Raikage gave him a task.

Although the Hidden Cloud Village did not launch a large-scale attack against the Leaf Village's ninja army on the front lines, they still had to hold back the Leaf Village's ninja army at the front lines, preventing them from supporting other fronts.

Therefore, the consumption is not small, especially the consumption of kunai and shuriken. These need to be purchased from the Land of Iron, where the forging techniques are better and the quality of the ninja tools produced will be better.

"knew!"

Tamura Hao nodded, then left the Raikage's office, preparing to ponder the Hell Thrust and the Lightning Release Armor on the way, especially the Lightning Release Armor.

Like Chidori, Lightning Release Armor is a ninjutsu that can evolve on its own. As one's mastery of lightning attribute transformation deepens, the power of the ninjutsu will increase accordingly. When mastered to its extreme, it can even form a Lightning Release Chakra Mode, which is an S-rank ninjutsu.

I can integrate these two ninjutsu into the Chidori series, making them extensions of Chidori. This way, I can learn them faster and be more flexible in adapting to the various techniques within the Chidori system.

"This child has grown up."

Tsuchida remarked that the child had grown up too fast. Just a year ago, he was only a genin, but in just one year, he had the combat power of a jonin. He even created an A-rank ninjutsu, the kind that could become a complete system.

This systematic approach to ninjutsu is far more valuable than individual techniques. Once you learn the core techniques, you can easily master the other evolved ones, making it very suitable for widespread adoption.

"That's not the first one. This Rasengan has even greater potential; it can even incorporate chakra nature transformations from bloodline limits."

The Third Raikage raised his hand and condensed a chakra ball, the chakra inside spinning at high speed.

This was an idea proposed by that disciple earlier, which can be described as the ultimate in chakra form transformation and has great potential.

Theoretically speaking, any chakra nature transformation can be incorporated, especially fire and wind attributes, and then there are bloodline limit nature transformations.

Unfortunately, this Rasengan requires a huge amount of chakra to unleash its power, and it is currently only suitable for the Uzumaki clan and those Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts to train, especially the Jinchuriki of the Two-Tails' split bodies, who can incorporate the Two-Tails' special flames into it, making its power second only to the Tailed Beast Ball.

Of course, that kid only put forward a theoretical idea and completed it himself, but he wouldn't go so far as to compete with his own disciple for this honor, so it was assigned to that kid's name.
