From the night of genocide, marching towards the strongest.

However, no matter how good the offerings are, the reincarnated person is still a dead person, and their strength, speed, and combat skills are ultimately not as good as when they were alive.

If most of the reincarnated person's combat power, or rather their core combat power, lies in some special secret techniques or forbidden arts, then the Edo Tensei's combat power will be drastically reduced.

The most obvious example is Madara Uchiha!

Sasuke roughly estimated that the current Third Raikage should be able to exert about 80% of his strength.

However, even with around 80% of his strength, Sasuke would still be in trouble.

So far, Sasuke hasn't even been able to break through his lightning armor. But with Daikokuten and Tenbu Ryuun, Sasuke is confident he can shatter it.

Unfortunately, the Great Black Heaven and Heavenly Cloud Flow were too slow to build up their power and had long casting animations. The Third Raikage was also incredibly fast, which meant that he had absolutely no chance to use these two moves in the battle.

Let's see if we can break through the Third Raikage's strongest shield.

"You've worked hard, Third Raikage. Let's call it a day."

Looking at the expressionless Third Raikage, Sasuke smiled slightly, formed a hand seal, and prepared to end today's training.

"Wait a moment!"

At that moment, the Third Raikage suddenly spoke.

"Lord Raikage, is there anything you wish to say?"

The Third Raikage remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking, "Uchiha brat, didn't you want to learn Lightning Release Chakra Mode and my ninjutsu?"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Sasuke raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Has the Raikage-sama come to his senses? But what are the conditions?"

The state of those resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation is divided into two types.

There is a state of having self-awareness and a state of having no self-awareness after erasing one's personality.

Although both were restricted in their actions by the caster, the impure body, possessing a state of self-awareness, did not want to tell you what you wanted, and the caster had little recourse.

Without self-awareness, how can a mere killing tool entrust you with the things in its mind if it has no consciousness at all?

Sasuke wants to learn Lightning Release Chakra Mode and Lightning Release Ninjutsu, that's right.

But if the Third Raikage doesn't want to teach him, Sasuke doesn't have much of a way to deal with it.

Sasuke originally planned to learn and observe the secrets of the Third Raikage little by little through actual combat.

But now, for some reason, the Third Raikage has relented, which surprised Sasuke quite a bit.

"I want you to promise me that you will not be an enemy of Kumogakure in the future. As long as you agree to this condition, I can teach you anything, whether it's Lightning Release Chakra Mode, my Hell Thrust, or anything else I know."

The Third Raikage stared intently at the boy before him, his eyes like two points of lightning, and spoke slowly and deliberately.

He compromised!

The Third Raikage, who had fought countless battles throughout his life and never compromised until his death, finally yielded.

The strength and potential he saw in the young man before him shocked him, and even filled him with fear!

The boy's strength was such that even I, at my peak, wouldn't dare say I could defeat him if he used those Sharingan.

The Third Raikage has gained a profound understanding of the boy's potential through these recent battles.

What is a genius? What is a prodigy?

At first, the boy was no match for him, and he was almost instantly killed in battle.

But as time went on, the Third Raikage clearly sensed that this Uchiha boy was absorbing all the experience in battle like a sponge, growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He was now even able to entangle with his own self, before he used the Hell Thrust technique, for a considerable period of time.

Reaching his level in the future is only a matter of time, perhaps even within a few years.

Upon realizing this, the Third Raikage panicked.

If such a monstrous enemy were to become an enemy of the Hidden Cloud Village in the future, it would surely be a catastrophe for our village!

Furthermore, he realized that even if he didn't teach this guy, he would gradually learn his ninjutsu through combat.

"Um....."

Upon hearing this, Sasuke pondered for two seconds before saying, "If the people of Kumogakure don't attack me first in the future, I won't kill them."

"Ha!" The Third Raikage sneered, coldly saying, "Uchiha brat, are you playing me?"

“You stole my corpse, and judging from what you said before, the current Fourth Hokage of Kumogakure is my good-for-nothing son. Stealing the corpse of a former leader of a ninja village is a disgrace, both in public and private. How could the people of the village not come looking for you?”

Sasuke shrugged and laughed, "Then what does the Third Hokage suggest we do? I can't just sit here and wait to be captured when your people from Kumogakure come to kill me, can I?"

"Let them go this once, just this once!"

The Third Raikage took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I have a deep understanding of your potential and talent. With your talent, it won't be long before you become the Shura of the modern ninja world, the reincarnation of Madara Uchiha."

"Although we in the Hidden Cloud Village are fond of martial arts, we are not ignorant of our own limitations. Once you demonstrate your unparalleled strength, they will naturally back down and dare not provoke you again."

Upon hearing this, Sasuke gave the old man a deep look and suddenly laughed, "It is said in the ninja world that the Third Hokage was a rude and irritable person, but after seeing him today, I have discovered that the Third Hokage is a leader who is shrewd and far-sighted despite his rough exterior."

The Third Raikage's words were simple and easy to understand.

Asking Sasuke to let them go once would simply mean letting them go once when Sasuke displays his invincible power.

That way, even if the people from Kumogakure come to attack him first, his life will not be in danger.

Secondly, once Sasuke possesses that power, there's naturally no need for the Third Raikage's corpse.

In this way, although the two sides still had some grudges, the irreconcilable contradictions disappeared.

Of course, if anyone dares to challenge Sasuke, whose power has already been secured, the Third Raikage can't do anything about it and will let them seek their own death.

As a dead man, that's all he could do.

"You don't need to tease me."

The Third Raikage's expression remained solemn as he said in a deep voice, "If you agree to my conditions, I guarantee I will teach you everything I know with all my heart."

After a pause, the Third Raikage continued, "I know you have great talent, and I'm aware that you've been secretly learning my ninjutsu and taijutsu during battles. But my techniques aren't so easy to learn. Even with your talent, it would take a long time. Some of the subtle and crucial aspects are impossible to copy even with the Sharingan. But if I teach you personally, you can learn and master them in a very short time. I think time is a very precious thing for you right now, isn't it?"

Sasuke smiled and asked, "Third Hokage, do you really believe my promise?"

"I had no choice, and I believe that as a strong person, you should have this much magnanimity!"

Upon hearing this, Sasuke remained silent for a moment, then nodded: "Alright! Okay, I agree!"

“However…” Sasuke changed the subject and continued, “I had a little spat with one of your Cloud Village guys before, and I still need to collect some interest from him.”

"Who!?" The Third Raikage's gaze sharpened as he asked.

"Two-tailed Jinchuuriki Yukito!"

"It's her?" The Third Raikage's expression was very unpleasant. He knew Yugito. Although Yugito was still young when he died, she had left a deep impression on him.

Just as he was about to say something, Sasuke continued, "I originally planned to kill her in the future, but today I'll spare her life for the sake of the Third Hokage. However, some necessary lessons are still necessary."

In fact, Sasuke never intended to kill Yugito.

Yugito is like an older sister to Tamaki, and also a junior to Granny Cat.

Tamaki is Sasuke's younger sister, and Sasuke quite likes this innocent and cheerful girl.

Granny Cat is Sasuke's elder, and she has taken great care of him over the years.

If he were to kill Yugito, although he wouldn't necessarily become enemies with Granny Cat, everyone's expression would be unpleasant, and Yugito's side would likely feel the same way.

Therefore, Sasuke's only intention has always been to teach Yugito a profound lesson in the future, while also collecting a small amount of interest.

He didn't intend to kill her.

However, this doesn't stop Sasuke from telling the Third Raikage now.

"That's good."

Upon hearing this, the Third Raikage breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In that case, brat Uchiha, the next time you summon me, I will teach you Lightning Release Chakra Mode and Taijutsu!"

"No need to wait until next time."

Sasuke shook his head, his eyes gleaming with excitement, and grinned, "Third Hokage, let's begin now!"

Chapter 244 Completing the Six Bloodlines!

Another week passed, inside the underground experimental base on Ghost Island.

Sasuke took off his clothes and lay down in a light green nutrient solution tank, closing his eyes slightly.

He's going to get injected with cells from the Feathered Robe Clan!

According to his original plan, the injection was to be administered a month later.

After all, less than a month had passed since he injected Naruto's cells, and he needed a transition period to clearly sense the changes in his body.

However, after being brutally beaten for the past two weeks...

Cough!

During his practical training with the Third Raikage, he also learned Lightning Release Chakra Mode and ninjutsu.

Sasuke discovered that not only was his mastery of Lightning Release increased, but his own physical energy was also growing rapidly.

It seems that in the brutal hand-to-hand combat with a tough guy like the Third Raikage, the intense physical confrontation stimulated the potential of Naruto's cells and the First Hokage's cells from the Yang lineage within his body.

Besides this, learning Lightning Release Chakra Mode is also extremely helpful.

Lightning Release Chakra Mode is the culmination of the Second Raikage's mastery of Lightning Release and taijutsu, a culmination of the experience of his predecessors in the Land of Lightning.

In terms of developing human potential and strengthening physical defense, it is the strongest body-building technique in the entire ninja world, bar none!

After all, even Might Guy wouldn't dare say he could take a Rasenshuriken head-on and survive, and the Third Raikage, in his Edo Tensei form, had a much weaker physical body than before, and with Wind Release countering Lightning Release.

He took the Rasenshuriken head-on, only suffering some scratches, dusted himself off, and continued fighting.

The Eight Gates Formation is essentially a forbidden technique similar to the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique; learning this technique does not significantly increase one's physical strength.

Conversely, the stronger one's physical strength and willpower, the more Eight Gates one can open.

Lightning Release Chakra Mode combines taijutsu training with the unique physical activation of lightning release, treating the human body as a blank iron, which is forged and tempered into an indestructible steel body.

Sasuke had only learned the Lightning Release Chakra Mode for a week, yet he could clearly sense the changes in his body. His originally slender figure became more muscular, and his fair and delicate skin faintly shimmered with a chilling metallic luster.

In addition to the physical changes, Sasuke's nerve reaction speed is also rapidly increasing.
