Naruto: The Infinite New World

Chapter 10 Orochimaru Appears

"You seem very eager to know your own strength; I see a desire for power in your eyes."

"Although I think it's wrong to blindly pursue power, I suppose the young man must have had reasons to pursue it."

Matt Dai spoke in a very mature tone.

Jin touched his eye socket, wondering how he had seen all these things.

He can only see the boogers in other people's eyes. This kind of method of seeing the other person's purpose is not the way you can spot a spy at a glance.

Matt Dae had no idea where Kim's train of thought had gone.

"Then I'll teach you the Eight Gates Formation, and you can guide me through the basic internal ninjutsu."

He, Matt Daly, was also calculating things very effectively.

Jin wanted the Eight Gates, but he didn't expect it to be so straightforward.

Matt Day sat up and began to explain with a serious expression.

"I'm a genin who trains every day, and it's been over ten years and I still haven't fully mastered this move, but I have some insights."

"When using this tactic, a strict condition must be added."

That is self-discipline.

Jin listened dismissively. Aside from survival, his main purpose in cultivating was to do whatever he wanted. If he had to put a time limit on it, he hoped it would be forever.

With Might Guy's explanation, Jin gradually learned about the Eight Gates.

However, this ninjutsu is much simpler than expected, yet also infinitely more difficult.

The content is simple; the difficulty lies in the training.

The entire content of the Eight Gates Formation is not only concise but also easy to understand, allowing anyone to quickly learn and begin training.

However, the difficulty of completing it is extremely high.

Simply put, the Eight Gates Formation is about constantly pushing one's physical limits, which means controlling the eight gates that suppress and regulate the chakra within the body.

The existence of the Eight Gates is to protect the limitations that arise in the human body.

Just like the human body limiters mentioned in the previous life, many people have opened their body limiters in times of crisis. Even a weak woman can lift a car, but the price is serious injury and death.

The Eight Gates are the limiters of chakra, which explains why opening the Eight Gates can harm oneself.

The Eight Gates were not opened through a life-or-death crisis, but rather by gradually cracking open a gap in the Eight Gates through training that exceeded the limits of the body, and then pouring in chakra to unleash all the chakra within.

Exceeding physical limits is not easy. A typical ninja can surpass it once, but the difficulty increases exponentially with each subsequent attempt.

No wonder Kakashi was surprised that Rock Lee mastered four gates; that's not something you can achieve just through hard work.

The four gates also represent Rock Lee surpassing his physical limits four times.

It's unbelievable just thinking about it.

"This physical technique is not suitable for me."

Jin shook his head regretfully. He was confident in his perseverance in constantly pushing his physical limits, but the amount of time and energy required was enough for him to create even stronger ninjutsu.

He couldn't do what those predecessors did—learn the Eight Gates Formation and open all eight gates in just a few months or even a few days.

According to his mental estimate, it would take him at least ten years to reach the level of Might Guy opening five gates, and it would also take more than ten years to go from five gates to seven gates. The eighth gate would be the simplest, but it would be the most difficult.

The eighth gate of the Eight Gates Formation is the most special one. It is much easier than the first seven gates. Once the first five gates are opened, the eighth gate can be opened at any time, but the price is to pay with one's life.

At that moment, he understood why Might Guy's Eight Gates technique was inferior to Might Guy's.

When Matt Damon opened the eighth gate, he probably hadn't even practiced the seventh gate yet.

According to the training method of the Eight Gates Formation, the strength of those who reach the Eight Gates should be roughly the same.

Jin looked at Matt Day thoughtfully.

"Young man, there's no such thing as suitable or unsuitable. Perhaps you also have someone you need to protect by dedicating your youth to."

Matt Daly gave Kim a thumbs up.

Is this a curse to kill him?

Absolutely.

Forget it, Jin didn't want to dwell on it, mainly because his injuries wouldn't allow him to.

It was his turn to teach.

"What level have you reached in your basic internal skills?"

Jin sat up.

Matt Dae pondered for a moment: "Create a seal."

gold:.

That's just the first step.

Let's start explaining from the beginning.

...

Matt went back, after all, he still had his wife to take care of.

Jin looked up at the sky.

A hint of red tinge the clouds.

"This talent is truly incredible."

He was still immersed in the lesson he had just taught Dai, and he simply couldn't imagine that there really was such a stupid person.

It shouldn't be called stupidity; it's more like someone without ninja qualifications forcibly cultivating chakra.

Everyone in this world has some amount of chakra in their body, but there is a prerequisite for extracting it from cells.

Sensitivity to chakra is something that only those who can sense chakra can refine, and many ninja clans are naturally gifted in this regard.

The Uchiha clan is particularly outstanding, with at least 90% of its members qualified to become ninjas.

After all, this is a world that seems to be about ninjutsu, but is actually about bloodlines.

Being able to sense chakra naturally allows for its free control, though the level of precision varies. For example, medical ninjas, who haven't yet appeared, require a very high level of precision in controlling chakra.

Dai, on the other hand, has less than 50% control over his chakra.

While others use one part of their strength to control chakra, he needs to use five parts, something Jin never expected.

What is a ninjutsu difficulty for others is five times more difficult for Dai.

"No wonder ninjutsu and genjutsu are useless."

For Might Guy, a C-rank ninjutsu is comparable to a B-rank, and this level of difficulty is already enough to stump most ninjas.

Although the basic internal skills are simple, with only a D-level learning difficulty, there are still thresholds to master.

For Dai, it's a C-level difficulty.

"So that's how important ninja talent is."

He now deeply understands the limitations this world places on mediocre people, and the Eight Gates Formation is the only technique that allows mediocre people to overtake others.

"Fortunately, I have good aptitude."

Despite his appearance, he is actually a rare Uchiha ninja with all elemental attributes, possessing the same aptitude as Hiruzen Sarutobi and others.

The pinnacle of this talent was Hiruzen Sarutobi, who, despite being called the "Professor of Ninjutsu," was the strongest Hokage.

In reality, Orochimaru probably knows more ninjutsu than he does.

This is a film that grows entirely based on natural talent.

In other words, theoretically speaking, even if Jin grows up step by step, if he has the opportunity to awaken the Sharingan, he could even surpass Hiruzen Sarutobi.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi had a great teacher named Tobirama Senju, who possessed an extremely vast repertoire of ninjutsu.

Unfortunately, he didn't.

Therefore, it is only theoretically achievable.

However, if he were only comparing himself to Hiruzen Sarutobi, he would never have imagined that his ambitions were far greater.

His goal was never to be the Kage of this world, or even surpass the Kage, nor was it to the level of Madara Uchiha or Hashirama Senju.

He aspires to be on par with the immortals of the three holy lands and those at the Six Paths level.

Combat strength doesn't really matter; the main thing is that they can survive. That's his goal.

Let him live for a thousand years first.

However, his ability to possess all elemental attributes is something that cannot be revealed, because once it is revealed, he doesn't know what will happen to Hiruzen Sarutobi, but the Kage will not allow him to grow stronger.

Weakening and suppressing the Uchiha clan is the politically correct course in Konoha.

"I'd rather defect; I feel safer here than out there."

Jin left the spot, cursing and swearing.

He was just saying that the ninja world is too chaotic right now and needs to develop first. Once it grows up, that's when it will be.

He, Uchiha Kin, doesn't eat beef!

Instead of leaving the Leaf Forest, he turned and walked deeper into the forest.

A dilapidated, abandoned training ground.

Two figures were rapidly passing each other.

Upon closer inspection, both figures were actually made of gold.

Shadow Clone Technique.

One uses only taijutsu, while the other uses the Three Body Techniques and Fire Release ninjutsu for offense.

The Shadow Clone Technique is practically a cheat code.

Even if the body and chakra do not increase, memories can be transferred back.

So, using it to train ninjutsu and gain experience in battles will result in rapid improvement.

Jin did the same thing.

"The maximum is three shadow clones."

He can only sustain the transmission of experience back for a day, and he can only handle three shadow clones.

The fatigue from shadow clones will be added to the original body. Unlike Naruto Uzumaki in later generations who relied on the protagonist's halo, his use of shadow clones will not have a significant impact.

If there are too many, they will die.

Meanwhile, a shadow clone was also at home learning ninjutsu.

"untie!"

Jin formed hand seals, and his two shadow clones vanished in two puffs of smoke with a "bang".

A flood of battle memories flooded my mind.

"Fighting against myself yields far less benefit than fighting Might Guy."

Just as he was savoring the battle, he noticed a sudden movement in the bushes out of the corner of his eye.

He pulled a kunai from his ninja tool pouch and threw it over.

"Whoosh!"

When he walked over, he saw a small white snake struggling on the ground, pinned down by a kunai.

"This kind of snake is really rare."

Jin sighed, pulled out the kunai, and the little white snake quickly fled into the distance.

But before the little white snake could completely escape, a shuriken suddenly flew out and severed its head. The headless snake struggled wildly, but unfortunately, it could not avoid its fate of death.

Jin's eyes narrowed, and he took out a kunai, fully alert, completely unaware of anyone around him.

Basic internal skills should enhance perception.

"Life is so fragile."

A sigh.

What followed was a surge of murderous intent.

The air seemed to be stained black.

Jin felt as if he were wearing heavy shackles, and even his breathing became heavier.

Looking into the distance, a pale-skinned man with long hair, dressed in a white kimono, slowly walked towards them.

A man who is like a snake.

Despite being dressed in ordinary clothes and showing no signs of fighting, he merely approached with those steps.

"Tap tap...tap..."

His heart pounded in sync with the other person's footsteps.

The man walked to the dead snake, his expression filled with sorrow, not at all like someone who would exude murderous intent.

"Isn't that right, young Uchiha?"

Orochimaru!
