Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

Chapter 82 Brain: Simple, Too Simple! (Please Subscribe and Vote)

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Konoha's 41st year is coming to an end.

In a small grove covered in snow.

Hoshita Shuichi let out a long sigh of relief, as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders: "Finally, we've got the [Wind Release Expert]!"

Entry: [Wind Release Expert]

Effect: Increases Wind Release talent by 100%, and allows Wind Release to be used without hand seals.

This effect is similar to [Fire Release Expert].

In order to obtain this entry, he mastered five Wind Release ninjutsu: Gale Palm, Vacuum Ball, Vacuum Wave, Vacuum Great Ball, and Vacuum Blade.

Aside from Gale Palm, which was left by his mother, the other four ninjutsu techniques all came from Minato Namikaze.

After activating the [Wind Release Expert] skill, Hoshino Shuichi immediately looked at another gray-white leaf with a different skill.

This was just triggered.

Entry: [Wind Release Master]

Acquisition Requirements: Create at least 5 A-rank Wind Release ninjutsu, or create 1 S-rank Wind Release ninjutsu.

Effects: Wind Release talent increased by 100%, Wind Release chakra nature transformation increased by 100%, Wind Release form transformation increased by 100%; except for bloodline-type Wind Release, there are no learning obstacles for any Wind Release ninjutsu or secret technique.

Both the acquisition conditions and the effects of the entries were as expected.

"Next, we need to take down the Wind Release: Rasengan!"

Hoshino Shuichi obtained the "Wind Release Expert" title before the end of Konoha Year 41, so as not to waste the once-a-year "Flash of Brilliance".

He already had a general idea of ​​what to do with the S-rank Wind Release technique, Rasengan.

However, if used elsewhere without adequate preparation, a "flash of inspiration" may be wasted.

Ten minutes of maximum comprehension and creativity doesn't necessarily mean you can develop an S-rank ninjutsu from scratch.

"Only 3 days left until the New Year..."

He took out a soldier's ration pill and swallowed it. Hoshino Hideichi then sat quietly to recover his strength.

Although it's unknown whether "a flash of inspiration" will consume a lot of stamina, it's never wrong to be well prepared.

Once his stamina had returned to its peak, Hoshino Hideaki lowered his eyes: "A flash of inspiration! Activate!"

In that instant, Hoshino Shizuka felt as if he had been given a new brain.

Many problems I encountered during my practice over the past year suddenly came to mind, and I found solutions.

For example, sensory ninjutsu, which I've never been able to master.

For example, the high-temperature ray fire jutsu is just one step away from being completed.

There are also medical ninjutsu, medical knowledge, and so on.

At that moment, Hoshino Shuichi felt as if he had pushed open a door—a door to knowledge, a door to omniscience.

But he immediately sensed something was wrong.

Because there was so much he didn't know before, now that his mind is racing, all sorts of thoughts come to mind.

"This is bad!"

Hoshino Hideichi quickly activated 10x focus, suppressing all sorts of thoughts, and then focused on Wind Release, specifically the Wind Release: Rasengan Shuriken technique.

Thus, he truly experienced the power of maximum comprehension and maximum creativity.

How does one transform their shape to create a high-speed rotating shuriken?

It turns out that the nature transformation of Wind Release needs to be performed first.

How can we make the formed shuriken move stably so that it can be thrown?

Construct a dual circulation system to form an interconnected, three-dimensional cross-circulation system.

S-rank Wind Release?

simple!

It's so easy!

In less than two minutes out of ten, Hideaki Hoshino had already mastered the complete Wind Release: Rasengan.

How about adding Fire Release techniques?

In addition to the terrifying wind needle attack, let's add some high temperature.

Adding Fire Release isn't difficult either; simply infuse Fire Release chakra after forming the Wind Release: Rasengan.

Soon, the Wind and Fire Spiral Shuriken appeared.

No, it should be called the Wind and Fire Light Wheel Spiral Hand Sword, whose principles have also been thoroughly understood by Hoshino Hideichi.

There are still more than 6 minutes left.

continue!

This time, Hoshino Shizuka's target is that extremely complex technique of sensory ninjutsu.

Minato Namikaze's handprint was somewhat based on luck; now that he has brains, he'll naturally rely on them.

Time passed slowly, and this time it took longer than expected.

Because that technique contained knowledge that Hoshino Shuichi had not previously mastered.

For example, Earth Release, Lightning Release, and Water Release.

However, there is absolutely no problem when your comprehension is at its maximum.

Finally, 10 minutes passed.

His mind instantly went downgraded; Hoshino Shuichi felt like he had fallen from heaven and become stupid.

But only for a moment, his head throbbed, his vision went black, and something seemed to be flowing out of his nose.

Gritting his teeth to avoid fainting, Hoshino Shuichi deactivated his 10x concentration and quickly swallowed a soldier's ration pill. He then took out a thermos from his backpack and drank warm water with salt and sugar inside.

After drinking it all in one gulp and taking nearly 5 minutes to recover, Hoshino Shuichi's mind cleared up a bit, and the dizziness disappeared.

He then realized that what had been flowing from his nose was fresh blood.

"A sudden flash of inspiration combined with 10 times the focus is truly terrifying..."

Hoshita Shuichi smiled bitterly as he covered the bloodstains with snow, but his mind was still sluggish and his body was very weak. He had no choice but to give up trying to develop the Wind Release: Rasengan.

After resting for another half hour, Hoshino Shuichi finally picked up his backpack and went home.

What he didn't expect was that it would take him a full seven days, until he entered Konoha 42, to recover to his peak condition.

This is even after his recovery ability had increased by 100%.

Otherwise, it might take half a month to recover.

Shuichi Hoshita decides that he will have Asuka by his side next time he uses it.

……

April 5, Konoha Year 42.

Having just fully recovered, Hoshino Shuichi couldn't wait to go to a secluded, open area in the village.

Today he will test the Wind Release: Rasengan technique, turning theory into reality.

hum!

Hoshino Shuichi made a grasping motion with his right palm facing upwards, and as chakra gathered, a rapidly spinning Rasengan was formed.

He almost never uses the Rasengan in actual combat because it doesn't suit his personal style.

Instead of using the Rasengan, use the Blue Flame Heavenly Blade or the Blue Flame Waterfall Blade.

Even without a sword, he prefers to use Wind Release to enhance his kunai.

……

The first step is followed by the second step, which is the change of the nature of Wind Release.

As Hoshino continued to output chakra, an even stronger whistling sound rang out, and a blazing white halo formed outside the Rasengan.

This circle represents the high-speed circulation of Wind Release chakra.

"It consumes too much chakra..."

Hoshino Hideichi frowned slightly, then proceeded to the third step: a change in form!

Buzz!

With a sharp, piercing friction sound, four blades resembling daggers appeared outside the bright white halo and began to spin at high speed.

These rotating "blades" are actually formed from the high-speed flow of wind-style chakra.

This chakra flows out from the second layer of the bright white halo and back again. Combined with the high-speed rotation of the inner and outer rings, it forms the shape of a shuriken.

At the same time, the less chakra gathers from the inside out, the faster it circulates. Therefore, the core Rasengan is blue, the outer ring is bright white, and the shuriken form further out is almost transparent.

"With my chakra, I can only manage one shot..."

Hoshino Hideichi was speechless.

However, this is under the premise of not using the Yin Seal's chakra.

"Let's see if it's really finished..."

Hoshita Shuichi raised his right hand and then threw the Wind Release: Rasengan shuriken in his hand in the manner of throwing a Madman Shuriken.

Buzz!

The Wind Release: Rasengan shuriken spun rapidly and shot out, cutting through the air. In the blink of an eye, it flew more than a hundred meters away. Then, it lost its stability, and the entire ninjutsu rapidly expanded, emitting a dazzling, blazing white light. In the blink of an eye, it formed a huge ball of light with a diameter of more than 25 meters.

Immediately following was a howling gale that swept in, raising a layer of mud waves!

After a while, the storm passed, and Hoshinoichi lowered his arms that were covering his eyes, then used the Body Flicker Technique to arrive at the core area of ​​the Wind Release: Rasengan Shuriken's explosion.

There's now a huge crater here.

"Its power is indeed remarkable."

Hoshino Shuichi thought to himself, "Not only does it have powerful cutting capabilities, but it also has terrifying, rapidly rotating, tiny wind needles."

"Especially when ninjutsu loses its stability and bursts out, there is no orderly movement trajectory at all. Unless you have the kind of regenerative ability like Madara Uchiha or Hashirama Senju, your meridians will be severed and even your cells will be pierced. Even if you don't die, you will be a cripple."

"If it were the Wind and Fire Light Wheel Spiral Shuriken, the storm just now would have been a terrifying firestorm, turning into a massacre."

Hoshino Shuichi gathered his thoughts and focused his attention on the term tree.

The entry for "Wind Release Master" is highlighted in blue!

Wind Release talent increases by 100%, Wind Release chakra nature transformation increases by 100%, and Wind Release form transformation increases by 100%. Except for bloodline-type Wind Release, there are no learning obstacles for any Wind Release ninjutsu or secret technique.

After the entry was activated, Hoshinoichi raised his right hand, then held up one finger. The air currents on his fingertip swirled, and a mini version of the Wind Release: Rasengan shuriken quickly appeared.

Then, Hoshinoichi flung the Wind Release: Rasengan shuriken from his fingertips. After flying more than twenty meters, the mini Wind Release: Rasengan shuriken also expanded, eventually affecting an area of ​​two to three meters.

The large Wind Release: Rasengan consumes too much chakra, so the mini version is much more economical, and it's sufficient for single-target attacks.

Moreover, the size of the Wind Release: Rasengan can be flexibly controlled according to the needs of the battle.

He sat down and ate a soldier's ration pill to recover his strength. Hoshino Hideichi thought to himself, "As far as I can say about the wind and fire ninjutsu I currently know, the title of master is well-deserved."

"Leaving aside combat experience, in terms of killing ability, he is no less than an elite Jonin."

"But aside from everything else, my biggest weakness is insufficient chakra."

"One is the limitation of physical constitution, and the other is the limitation of age, so the Yin Seal is used to make up for it, but the first two times it was abandoned halfway."

In fact, Hoshino Shuichi's chakra reserves are definitely among the best of his peers.

Last December, he roughly estimated that he already had 3 calories.

At the same time, it is about twice the size of Sarutobi Asuma.

"I can't control growing up, so I can only focus on improving my physique and the Yin seal."

Hoshino Hideichi secretly plotted: "Live for two years and fill up the Yin Seal."

"Obtaining the two attributes, [Master of Swordsmanship] and [Envoy of Time and Space], will grant two physique boosts."

"I'm about 9 years old now. This year, next year, or at the latest, Konoha 43, I should try to achieve my goal."

"The Flying Thunder God Technique is difficult to learn, so you can start with other space-time ninjutsu. You can even create your own using 'Flash of Inspiration'."

Having made the plan, Xingxia Xiu got up and went home.

He needs to go back and sort out the complex formula of the sensory ninjutsu, and then master that ninjutsu, so that he will have one less weakness.
