Naruto: Starting with Tsunade

Chapter 53 This old man is very wicked

In the original work, chakra seems to be able to reincarnate. Perhaps after Itachi died, his chakra possessed Fugaku's son...

In the dimly lit room, Madara Uchiha's sharp eyes emitted a sinister crimson light.

He knew better than anyone how naive his words were, yet that was precisely why he said them.

He wanted to use Elder Itachi to create an ideal image of an old man for Aokiji.

He is reasonable, cares for the younger generation, loves his family, and actively promotes the integration of his family into the village.

However, this "simple and honest" old man could no longer tolerate the exclusion from the village's higher-ups and eventually resorted to some extreme behaviors.

So when Aokiji discovers that his beloved teacher has done such a thing, his feelings will probably undergo some very interesting changes...

Of course, this level alone is not enough; it is only one part of his scheme.

An emotional outburst requires a process of gradual accumulation, while an outburst only needs a trigger.

"Hashirama..."

"Your power will guide me to awaken the Rinnegan."

"And your descendants will guide my descendants to inherit my will."

"Don't you think this is fate's arrangement?"

A wicked smile crept across Uchiha's lips.

........................

Seeing Elder Itachi praising him so highly, Aokiji had something to say and needed to solidify his image: "Hey, Elder Itachi, you guys want the Uchiha to produce a Hokage, but you didn't include me. I'm just a medical ninja, I don't go to the battlefield."

"It doesn't matter. Even if you resist now, since you've become a ninja, external circumstances will push you to make a decision."

Aokiji: ...

Elder Itachi got back to the main topic: "Alright, where were we?"

In response to Elder Itachi's unauthorized decision, Aokiji retorted irritably, "Bloodline Elimination."

For some reason, Aokiji always felt that Elder Itachi was being a little too nice to him.

It's probably not just because of the Ice Release bloodline limit.

You have to understand what kind of treatment he's receiving now.

That's on par with someone like Fugaku, the next clan leader, receiving personal guidance from Elder Itachi—a privilege not every Uchiha receives.

Aokiji believes he has shown considerable talent, but he doesn't have the Sharingan after all.

At least that's how it appears to outsiders.

Ice Release, this bloodline limit, still cannot compare to the Sharingan.

Could it be that they only treat me differently because of a very low probability dual bloodline limit?

Aokiji had a bold idea: could it be that this old man already knew he possessed two bloodline limits, which was why he indulged his reckless behavior?

This possibility is not nonexistent; in fact, it is quite high.

After all, the cost to the other party is really low.

Just ask with your Sharingan, and after that, just erase the memory. You might even act like a complete idiot and think you're smart, but you've probably already revealed all your secrets.

Thinking about this, Aokiji's head throbbed with pain, and he felt it necessary to go back and carefully analyze the other party's motives.

However, for now, let's focus on listening to the information about bloodline elimination, as it will greatly benefit his future strength improvement.

Elder Itachi said gently, "I don't know the specifics of how to develop a bloodline limit, but I can provide you with some general ideas."

The little blue pheasant nodded as it pecked at the rice.

"To develop the Bloodline Elimination technique, the first prerequisite is to master two Bloodline Limits. This is one of the reasons why the Bloodline Elimination technique is so rare."

This statement was quite enlightening for Aokiji, making him realize the true meaning of "having an elder in the family is like having a treasure," and that if he didn't understand, he could simply ask, "Two bloodline limits?"

"To help you understand better, let's leave that aside for now and first explain bloodline limits as an example." Elder Itachi used a specific example to illustrate his point: "Take your Ice Release as an example. This is a bloodline limit formed by the fusion of Water Release and Wind Release."

Aokiji dared not interrupt, keeping his composure and holding his breath, afraid of missing a single word, as this was knowledge not covered in the original work.

Elder Itachi said calmly, "To do this, you must be proficient in at least two types of chakra nature transformations."

"A change in nature?"

I think this term was mentioned in the original work. Aokiji had forgotten what it was exactly, so he couldn't help but ask.

"In layman's terms, the process of converting ordinary chakra into an attribute is called chakra nature transformation. The opposite of it is form transformation. As the name suggests, take Fire Release: Dragon Flame Song Technique as an example. Just by the name, you can tell that this ninjutsu has the word 'dragon' in it. So, this ninjutsu has something to do with dragons in terms of form. Don't think that the so-called form transformation is just a simple change of shape. The power and speed of the ninjutsu will be greatly enhanced."

"A powerful ninjutsu requires the combination of chakra nature transformation and chakra form transformation."

Elder Itachi's lecture was easy to understand, and Aokiji understood it.

We'd just gotten a little off-topic, so Elder Itachi got back to the point: "So, on that basis, you need to learn some fusion techniques, such as performing ninjutsu with only one hand hand seals throughout."

"One-handed hand seal?"

Aokiji had heard of this thing; it was a hand seal technique that even a genius like Kakashi was astonished by in the original work.

"You probably weren't told about this at the ninja academy. It's understandable that you're surprised."

Aokiji nodded.

Elder Itachi, leaning on his cane, took a step forward: "Come with me, I'll demonstrate it for you myself, and I'll also teach you a fire-style ninjutsu."

"You can't really work your magic here, and you might even set the house on fire."

Unable to fully utilize their abilities?

Aokiji grasped the key words and immediately recognized an incredibly powerful ninjutsu. Overjoyed, he followed Elder Itachi to the vicinity of a vast lake.

Fire Release techniques are prone to accidentally setting nearby buildings ablaze, so Uchiha clan members try to train in places with water.

Aokiji stared intently at his opponent, who swiftly formed hand seals. In a moment, flames erupted from his mouth, forming a dragon-like shape with a ferocious and tyrannical expression. The dragon, now with four dragon heads, lunged into the lake.

When fire meets water, the lake boils and produces a large amount of thick white smoke.

"This is the Dragon Flame Song Technique that I mentioned to you earlier. It combines nature transformation and form transformation, has a wide attack range, and is fast. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to block. The training level is probably around B-rank. When you can master this ninjutsu, your strength will probably reach the level of Chunin."

Ninjutsu involving Rank B is more complicated and cannot be learned simply by being explained once. In addition to explaining it once, Elder Itachi also took out two scrolls.

two?

Aokiji was taken aback.

Elder Itachi explained, "One of the ninjutsu is the Dragon Flame Song Technique, and the other is based on some experience I gained from fighting ice-style ninjas in the past. I hope it will be helpful to you."

What a kind person.

Aokiji was deeply moved and kept the two scrolls as if they were priceless treasures. He was determined to study them carefully when he got back.

However, it seems that Madara Uchiha once used the Dragon Flame Song Technique. Elder Itachi once instructed Madara Uchiha. Through this method, I wonder if there will be an opportunity to learn ninjutsu such as Great Fire Annihilation in the future.

After dealing with this matter, Elder Itachi continued, "When you master one-handed hand seals, all you need to do is release different chakra nature transformations with both hands and then fuse them through hand seals. However, how exactly to fuse them will be up to you to figure out later."

Hearing this, Aokiji roughly understood Elder Itachi's line of thinking and, applying it to other situations, asked, "In other words, Bloodline Elimination is about fusing different Bloodline Limit Techniques performed by forming hand seals with each hand?"

"That's about right, that's the idea. You possess the Ice Release bloodline limit, so the Bloodline Elimination is about one-third complete. Next, you'll fuse another bloodline limit, and then perform the final fusion."

"So that's why you made me learn Water Release and Fire Release," Aokiji understood, shuddering. "But if that's the case, why water and fire? Can't you use fire and lightning? Wouldn't that give you four attributes combined? Wouldn't that be amazing?"

Elder Itachi smiled and said, "It's not that simple. The fusion of three chakra attributes, and the reason for adding the word 'elimination' after the bloodstains, is quite sophisticated."
