Chapter 115 Chidori Instantaneous Movement! (Please subscribe and vote with monthly tickets)

The following day, Hoshino Shuichi first went to Konoha Hospital with Yakushi Nonou and the others, then left a shadow clone before his real body went to Tsunade's house.

Sure enough, there were scrolls scattered everywhere, covered with all sorts of densely packed talismans.

Tsunade was frowning as she looked at a scroll, seemingly facing a problem.

Hoshita Shuichi didn't disturb him. He started tidying up the scrolls on the ground, sorting them by category, and then began to study them on his own.

Tsunade looked up for a moment, then lowered her head again to continue her thoughts.

However, having no ideas, she quickly gave up and looked up at Hoshino Shuichi: "Hey, what are you studying?"

Xingxia Xiu didn't even look up: "All the things that interest me—talismans, incantations, spells… these are all precious treasures left by our predecessors."

Tsunade scoffed, "So you're using the Memory Palace to copy?"

Hoshita Shuichi looked up and smiled, "It's due to my exceptional memory, Lady Tsunade won't mind, will she?"

Then he asked, "Is Lady Tsunade facing some kind of problem?"

"Why don't we discuss this together?"

Tsunade pouted arrogantly, then nodded honestly.

Hoshino Shuichi immediately stepped forward, sat down next to Tsunade, and leaned over to look at the contents of the scroll.

The two quickly started discussing it.

……

On the other side, within the forest, Hoshino Shizuka's shadow clones were crackling with electricity, gradually using Lightning Release to activate the cells.

This is delicate work!

Kakashi's Chidori Stream releases Lightning Release chakra from a portion of his body's pressure points, causing an electric current to envelop his entire body, activating some cells, increasing speed while also providing defensive and offensive capabilities.

Hoshino Hideaki releases chakra through all the acupoints in his body, just like the Hyuga clan.

This is something that most ninjas cannot do.

The easiest places to release chakra are the hands, feet, and the throat.

Therefore, the most common ways for ninjas to release ninjutsu are through their hands and throat.

Previously, Hoshino Shuichi could only unleash fire lotuses at the soles of his feet, partly due to insufficient chakra and partly due to the extreme difficulty of unleashing chakra from all parts of his body.

The brilliance and effectiveness of the Hundred Healings Technique lie precisely in this.

That's why Hoshino Shuichi was able to go a step further on the Chidori Ryu and activate his own cells even more deeply.

Suddenly, however, the lightning on Hoshinobi's body dissipated, and he stroked his chin thoughtfully, saying, "There are quite a few people in the Cloud Ninja who have mastered the nature transformation of Lightning Release, but in reality, only the Raikage of each generation have truly mastered it."

"This technique is a secret method? It shouldn't be, right?"

"In terms of Lightning Release Chakra Mode, one must unleash Lightning Release Chakra throughout the body to activate one's own cells, including nerve cells, to a very high degree from the inside out, thereby possessing superb reaction ability and speed, and forming a powerful Lightning Release armor with terrifying defensive capabilities."

"If the Third and Fourth Raikage had such chakra control, the Lightning Release Armor wouldn't be in its current form. In the last battle, A's control over his own Lightning Release chakra was clearly not as strong as my control over Fire Release and Wind Release now."

"So... it's about using a powerful body for a brutal release?"

"A powerful physique and immense chakra are the prerequisites for this ninjutsu?"

"Based on this assessment, just in terms of difficulty of study, it's only a B-level?"

Hoshino Shuichi's shadow clone laughed: "In that case, it seems I don't need to be so careful in controlling lightning chakra anymore."

"My physical condition has improved in all aspects, including two improvements to my recovery ability and one improvement to my resistance to injury and illness."

"Although without the support of the Yin Seal, I cannot have enough chakra to form a Lightning Release chakra pattern like the Raikage, I only need to activate a portion of my cells."

"After all, my reflexes are fast enough... and my goal is simply to speed things up."

"So, high-intensity activation of the limb cells should be enough, right?"

At this moment, Hoshino Shuichi's shadow clone felt that he was a great genius.

It has made what was originally a complicated matter much simpler.

"Well then, let's give it a try!"

As Xingxia Xiu clasped his hands together, intense lightning chakra erupted from his limbs.

The next moment, his limbs were enveloped in a dense blue electric light, which then wrapped around his entire body.

But the next moment, with a bang, the shadow clone exploded.

……

At Tsunade's house, Hoshino Shuichi, who was having a heated discussion with Tsunade, suddenly stopped.

Tsunade, who was engrossed in her music, suddenly stopped and immediately asked with displeasure, "What's going on?"

Hoshino Hideichi gave an awkward smile: "There's been a problem with my shadow clone technique."

He thought he had gained something, but he never expected... what a brilliant move!

but……

Hoshita Shuichi asked, "Does Lady Tsunade know anything about the Lightning Release Chakra Mode of Kumogakure?"

"Lightning Release Chakra Mode?"

"Are you researching this technique?"

Tsunade was surprised, then said, "There's no need to waste time."

"This technique is rated B in difficulty, but it has an extremely high barrier to entry."

"The Raikage's lineage possesses naturally powerful physiques and vast amounts of chakra."

"To achieve that level, you need to continuously activate all the cells in your body, which is no easy task. It requires all the acupoints in your body to release chakra simultaneously."

"Only the Hyuga clan in Konoha can do this."

"Without the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan, the Raikage's lineage did it in the simplest way."

Xingxia Xiu said, "A brutal method, using a powerful body to ignore that pain!"

Tsunade nodded: "That's right!"

"In the ninja world, if a technique is not very difficult but is still very powerful, it usually has a very high barrier to entry."

Xingxia Xiu nodded, it seemed that the analysis of the shadow clone was correct.

The idea is good, but it's a bit off.

However, it's not that the shadow clone is stupid; rather, its mission is to develop the Lightning Instantaneous Body technique. As for how to fight, that's the main body's business.

Although the idea of ​​shadow clones was a bit off, the overall direction was correct.

Tsunade looked at Hoshita Hideaki and said, "You want to use the Hundred Healings Technique as a foundation to train Lightning Release Chakra Mode?"

"Although the problem of chakra and the activation of cells throughout the body by chakra in a very short time has been solved, your body cannot withstand that high intensity of lightning nature transformation."

Xingxia Xiu nodded and admitted that his physical body was not strong enough.

His physique has been improved several times, and even though he has never neglected his basic training, it is impossible for him to match the physical strength of the Raikage lineage in such a short period of time.

Even the Raikage lineage developed their strength through decades of continuous training; they weren't born that powerful.

The strength that Tsunade spoke of was clearly the strength of that talent.

However, using the Hundred Healings Technique to assist in training Lightning Release Chakra Mode is similar to using Fire Release Chakra Mode.

Shuichi Hoshino rejected the idea.

Perhaps we can try to complete the full Lightning Release Chakra Mode later, but there's no need for it now.

Because he used Lightning Release Chakra Mode, he was unable to use other ninjutsu, just as he was unable to use any other ninjutsu besides Fire Release and Wind Release under Fire Release Chakra Mode.

Even with the Hundred Healings Technique, let alone reaching the level of the Third Raikage, even reaching the current level of A would take an extremely long time, which does not meet his current goal of rapidly increasing his combat power ceiling.

And this is only because his physique is strong enough to withstand the enhancement in lightning techniques.

"Lady Tsunade, my goal is not Lightning Release Chakra Mode, but Lightning Release Body Flicker."

"That's what Hoshino Shuichi explained."

"Lightning Release: Body Flicker?"

Tsunade asked in confusion, "I remember that your Fire Release: Body Flicker Technique is already very fast, and you can even use Fire Release and Wind Release techniques at the same time."

"Even if you develop Lightning Release: Body Flicker Technique, you won't be able to combine it with your most proficient ninjutsu. Instead, you'll need to go back to the Lightning Release path."

As she spoke, Tsunade gradually realized: "High-intensity Lightning Release activation of parts of the body?"

"For example, the legs, the arms?"

Xingxia Xiu nodded and smiled, "My neural reaction speed is fast enough, but my motor terminals, that is, the reactions of my arms and legs, are not fast enough."

"I need a faster shooting speed and a higher shooting frequency."

"Therefore, the chakra flowing through the meridian system to the arms and legs is divided into two parts. One part activates the cells in the arms and legs from the inside out, enhancing muscle reaction speed and strength."

"The remaining portion of chakra continues to circulate to my palms and soles, allowing me to use Fire Body Flicker Technique without affecting my high explosive power, as well as Fire Release and Wind Release chakra nature transformations to perform techniques from these two systems."

Tsunade's expression turned serious: "This line of thinking does indeed seem to have no problem."

"Even without using the Yin Seal's chakra, your own chakra is sufficient to sustain this level of consumption in a regular battle."

"However, while your arrangements are excellent, there is still one problem that cannot be ignored."

"This means you need to maintain the changes in the nature of three systems simultaneously. This isn't just a matter of chakra control; the key is whether your mental fortitude can sustain it!"

In the ninja world, it is already rare to be able to use two systems of ninjutsu at the same time.

In other words, one person can perform a combination of ninjutsu simultaneously, unlike Hiruzen Sarutobi who performed them in a specific order.

Having such an ability is, in effect, the foundation for mastering a bloodline limit.

Because the bloodline limit requires the simultaneous use of two property changes to fuse together and form a new property change.

Tsunade had naturally considered what Hoshino Shuichi had said, and smiled, "I think there's no problem with the mental aspect."

Staring intently at Hoshino Shizuka, Tsunade bluntly pointed out, "I remember you slept for two days and two nights before the New Year because of excessive mental strain, right?"

Xingxia Xiu was momentarily embarrassed and coughed twice, saying, "That was just an accident."

Tsunade remained noncommittal, stood up, and said, "In that case, let's try it here!"

As he spoke, he walked outside.

Hoshita Shuichi also quickly got up and followed him into the courtyard.

Tsunade crossed her arms: "Let's begin!"

He clearly cares, but he has a sour face!

Hoshino Shizuka felt a secret thrill, but quickly composed himself and activated double focus.

This should be enough...

Hoshino Shizuka lowered his eyes and prepared himself slightly. The moment he opened his eyes, the sound of a thousand birds chirping rang out, and intense electric light burst forth from his arms and legs, then wrapped around his entire body.

However, apart from the arms and legs being highly activated, the rest of the body is only similar to when Kakashi uses Chidori, it's just incidental.

However, Hoshino Shuichi's forehead was covered in sweat, and due to the violent burst of Lightning Release chakra, he felt intense pain in his arms and legs.

4 times more focus!

His slightly ferocious expression relaxed, and Hoshino Shuichi immediately bent his hands into claws, and then a dragon head appeared.

The Fire Release technique is fine, and it hasn't become slower.

After dispersing the dragon head, Xingxia Xiu took out a kunai from each of his ninja tool pouches.

The next moment, Fire Release and Wind Release chakra worked together on the two kunai, forming flowing blue flames.

At this moment, Hoshino Shuichi also felt the pressure, the mental pressure.

But it's still within an acceptable range.

Tsunade, who was observing from the sidelines and ready to intervene at any moment, was utterly shocked: "This guy is truly... a freak!"

After releasing the ninjutsu, Hoshino Shuichi couldn't help but breathe slightly, wiping away sweat, while his arms and legs still throbbed with pain.

However, as the medical ninjutsu was activated, the pain was quickly reduced.

But without a doubt, the Lightning Release: Body Flicker Technique was completed!

The next step is to gradually familiarize oneself with and allow the body to adapt to this high-intensity cellular activation.

"Luckily, I'm physically strong enough, otherwise I might not have been able to hold on..."

Hoshita Shuichi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

So, this technique is called... Thousand Birds Instantaneous Body!

Having mastered the Body Flicker Technique, Hoshino Shuichi was in high spirits and said with a smile, "Lady Tsunade, let's continue our research!"

Tsunade frowned: "Are you sure your mind and body are alright?"

Hoshino Hideaki thumped his chest loudly: "Don't worry, I'm very strong!"

Tsunade relaxed, then curled her lip and said, "Little brat!"

After saying that, he turned and went inside.

Looking at Tsunade's golden twin tails, Hoshino Shuichi suddenly had a strong urge to tug them.

But I dare not.

……

Orochimaru's experimental base.

Looking at the experimental plan in his hand, Hoshino Shuichi's shadow clone asked Orochimaru, "Lord Orochimaru, are you sure you want to do this kind of modification?"

Orochimaru laughed and said, "What? Shuichi-kun doesn't approve of this experiment?"

Hoshino Hideichi shook his head: "Of course not, that's a very surprising idea."

"But after such a transformation, it's really hard to call him a person anymore."

Orochimaru laughed and said, "That's exactly what I need."

"Tailed beasts are limited by their spirit and will, while we ninjas are limited by our bodies, which is why I modified my body."

"This software modification is just a very simple attempt, merely addressing one of the human body's shortcomings."

As he spoke, Orochimaru couldn't help but sigh: "The human body is too fragile, with too many weaknesses. A little bit of poison, a shuriken, a kunai, or even a punch can kill you."

After saying that, Orochimaru smiled again: "Snakes, especially white phosphorus snakes, have many advantages."

"For example, releasing stress, or shedding skin to allow oneself to be reborn."

Finally, Orochimaru looked intently at Hoshino Shuichi: "Shuichi-kun, are you interested in joining in?"

"My intuition tells me that your constitution is more suited to this than mine!"

Hoshino Shuichi shuddered inwardly and refused without hesitation, saying, "This is not the path I envision."

"My goal is chakra—chakra formed from spiritual and physical energy, which naturally possesses the quality of immortality!"

Orochimaru looked somewhat disappointed, but then smiled and said, "In that case, let's see which path is more suitable!"

Hoshino nodded: "I also look forward to Orochimaru-sama's success, and I will do my best to assist you!"

He now desperately wants Orochimaru to complete the software modification so that he can get the "Medical Master" entry.
