After the normal kekkei Genkai that are well known in the anime, I also explored the less-known ones like the [Crystal] release, [Steel] release, [Typhoon] release, and [Dark Release].

At first, it was unknown what combination would result in [Crystal] release as I had no idea about it from the anime or manga series, so I improvised.

Crystals in the first place are normally found under the earth, where there is compressed earth. With that knowledge, I had the idea of compressing the earth to its hardened form and then tried to combine it with all the other elements.

It was difficult compressing the earth but with compression, I came to notice that it changes its composition depending on how compressed it is.

Knowing that no other element will influence the earth in that state, I started with Yin and that was the combination needed.

With compressed earth mixed with Yin chakra, I could form crystals of any color. I tried creating different kinds of crystals from my past life knowledge of science and I succeeded slightly.

With this release, I could crystalize anything from wood to water to even air particles. But it is slightly weak against lightning and fire.

[Steel] release was even more unique. I didn't know where to start with the combination of chakra. And then I realized that like [Crystal] release, it didn't need to be created.

Yes, earth releases can be done from the mouth but you can't do that in the case of Crystals and Steel. Crystal is formed from an already existing element, Earth. Metal also has the same theory behind its creation.

[Steel] release is just like [Armament Haki] . I just need to imbue it on objects or use it on my body. The theory behind creating it is to use earth chakra on my body and then mix in Yang chakra to harden it. Same with objects.

It could be used for both attack and defense. It is impenetrable as far as I've seen. Except for the [Steel Armor] technique, I didn't see any other need for it. Maybe I'll teach it to someone in the future.

[Typhoon] release is an advanced form of wind release used with a higher form of wind chakra. I casually decided to name it Typhoon as I've not seen anyone use it yet. Maybe someone will awaken it naturally in the future and I will see how it is.

I created [Dark] release by actually compressing yin chakra to its most dense form and voila! Dark release. It could do everything Black Beard could do with it except for the pain absorption part. Absorbing chakra, manipulating it, and even replenishing mine.

Just like one of the Rinnengan abilities.

I tried using the same idea to create a technique based on compressed Yang chakra. After a lot of trial and error, I managed to create a technique that I will call [Light] release.

Yang energy at first appears green-colored but with constant accumulation and compression, it becomes golden in color. When used on plants, it gives it more life force to work with, but depending on my intention, it could burn up the plant.

I tried it on the soil and it became more fertile, I tried it on another patch of land to kill the land and the fertile land turned to sand.

I noticed it could be used to heal and kill all the same hence the name Light.

I also created the only known kekkei Tota mentioned in the series. [Dust] release. I honestly don't think it should be called dust release. It's better to be called something like [Void]. This technique destroys everything in its path. No defense can stand up to it.

I wonder why it was named Dust, some people's naming sense sure is weird.

So with that in mind, I decided to name it [Void] release ahead of time.

With all the elements accounted for, I should probably talk about my progress regarding seals.

I can confidently say that aside from Hagoromo and maybe Hamura, I am the best seal master in the world.

I created a lot of seals which I can't even mention at the drop of a hat. But I had the idea of creating a book of seals. I didn't make it with scrolls though as I wanted the book to go down in history. The name of the book as I wrote it is [Akashic Records]. Laugh all you want but I'm sticking with that name.

I used [Wood] release to make the cover of the book and pages. I made the papers as slim as possible so they can contain all the seals I'll write down in them.

I used [Hardening Seal] and [Statis Seal] on the book cover to make it as hard as possible and never rot.

Some of the important seals I created that were written there are related to [Dimension], [Space], and [Time].

Under [Dimensions] I managed to create a dimension. It happened around a year and a half ago

FLASHBACK

I entered a vast clearing. It took me two months to create the keys but I finally managed it.

"Whoa!" I spun, bewildered, taking a proper look around.

The clearing was huge. Enough to fit the entirety of the village with its training fields. But it ended with blackness. There was nothing following at the end. Just solid darkness. Even the sky was all black and I managed to see without the sun!

I made it with my Fire and Yang mixed and are independent from the sun! As for the moonlight at night time, it was created with the mixture of Yin and water in moderate quantity.

Basically, the sun and moon enhance my already existing 'light' and make them independent of me.

Meaning I didn't have to supply my chakra to sustain them.

It's due to seals. There are light-absorbing and air-absorbing seals. They suck air and light from outside, trapping it here. It is then sent from the sky down, making you able to see. I am sure I could get a better design sometime later but for now, it is enough.

I made the ground with earth-producing Jutsu. It actually worked! And the grass was an experiment to see if the plants can grow there.

I don't really know where I am, actually. My theory is I am outside of space. I... think I may be able to define this little dimension to be outside of the time as well but it will take years...

I felt the natural energy of the dimension increase by the second the more I was inside. It started to affect the grass around me, which was getting greener and greener... I got many ideas seeing it but I shrugged them off.

…

A month later, I stood in the middle of the dimension with a clone. We clap our hands together.

I smiled as the chakra and natural energy surged from my body, affecting the surroundings. The ground soaked up every bit of it and the world stilled for a second.

All was peaceful and quiet until the world trembled.

The ground started sending pulses like a heartbeat, sending earthquakes that clashed with each other, making the entire dimension violently shudder.

We were standing in the center and the ground under us was completely still, not moving even an inch. The ground was twisting, raising, lowering, mixing...

It took twenty minutes until we stopped supplying chakra for the Jutsu that will change my dimension forevermore.

The ground stilled and then one last pulse could be felt like a shockwave under the earth's surface slightly raised the ground before it promptly fell back and... started to lower itself, creating a perfectly flat surface.

No longer was it a grassy plain. Instead, the grass completely disappeared as a hard brown ground replaced it.

But not for long...

The ground started cracking all around as if a bud of a new plant was about to rise. The only difference was that these cracks were a few meters large, cracking the ground in the entire dimension except a circle with a few meters radius.

We knelt down and slammed our palms to the ground, sending a pulse through them, pushing air away from us, and creating shockwaves.

"Water Release: Great Tsunami Creation"

"Wood Release: Nativity of a Sea of Trees."

Our voices reverberated through the entire dimension as vines as thick as buildings started to cover the ground, snaking their way, intertwining, smashing, and pushing each other.

When the vines finally covered the entire dimension except for a circle of a few hundred meters around me, they stopped. Instead of ground, the dimension was full of massive vines.

At the same time, my clone poured out a huge amount of water that could possibly drown a whole village into an already created cracked-open portion of land.

Then the vines started creaking as if in pain when massive trees thrice as thick as the vines started forcefully pushing their way through them from the ground, reaching the 'sky' and almost touching the ceiling of the artificial dimension.

Leaves started to slowly but at a visible rate grow from the branches, painting the dimension green.

These trees and rivers were all special. All have the power to gather natural energy and saturate the ground and the air with it.

I could feel the natural energy being gathered from the space beyond their dimension. Space 'around'. Space 'below'. Or space 'above'. It just all started to hurtle and oversaturate their dimension.

The more nature energy the trees gathered, the faster their leaves grew until they started falling down, touching the ground, dissolving there, gifting the ground with energy.

The trees stopped sucking nature energy from the surrounding space and instead started to 'produce' their natural energy.

Completely different nature energy. Nature energy... tailored for me and my chakra.

The same happened in regards to the water, fire, earth, air Yun and Yang as they were fundamental elements used in building the dimension.

My clone dispelled and I powerlessly fell onto the ground, unable to move as I felt their chakra stores completely drained almost as much as I felt the immense drain in my mind.

Four tails worth of both chakra and natural energy are gone.

"Heh, knew it would work." I dryly chuckled.

"If there can be different nature energies in different worlds..."

"... then I can create my natural energy suited only for me."

FLASHBACK END

The dimension was locked up by seals and nobody could infiltrate the place. I don't know if Rinnengan possessors could do so though. It is yet to be tested. I believe that with time, it will truly be totally locked up.

I also created miscellaneous seals like Barrier Seals and countless Sealing formulas for sealing things ranging from chakra to sealing living beings and with different purposes.

In regards to [Space] seals, the major ones are [Teleportation Seals] based on an already created summoning seal, and [Space locking Seal].

The [Summoning Seal] also followed the same principle as the [Transportation Seal] I previously created. It's basically connecting two places.

The [Space Locking Seal] was created when creating a Key and Lock to my dimension, so I thought to create a seal that locks up space so someone can't teleport in and out like Obito and Minato.

I also created [Substitution Seal] similar to the one adult Sasuke has with his Rinnengan. The substitution technique taught in the future academy is similar to it but the difference is that this seal can substitute a living being with you.

As for the [Time] related seals, I only managed to improve the [Stasis] seal and create two more seals. [Slow] and [Fast]. With these two seals, I can decide to slow down or fasten someone's sense of time while I remain unaffected.

With the slow seal, I could be perceived as fast on any battlefield and with fast, I could make myself or someone fast.

I designed them both to look like a clock's design.

With my knowledge of these three categories of seals and my already vast knowledge of gravity seals, I created a [Hyperbolic Time Chamber].

I created a mini dimension with the [Space] seal, adjusted the time in the dimension with the [Time] seal, and put in the choice of adjusting the gravity.

The [HTC] was around 5 kilometers in both area and height. At the center, there is a control for time and gravity.

Time could be faster or slower inside and Gravity could reach barely 10 times the normal gravity.

The limit of time could only reach the ratio of 10:1in years. That is 1 year inside would be 10 outside or 10 years inside could be 1 outside.

If I am being honest, this would be my proudest creation. Not even the dimension could reach this rate of perfection.

I wondered if I could use these seals in my dimension but to do that I would have to destroy my dimension and start all over.

So I took the other alternative which is to forget it and install the [HTC] in my dimension and direct the energy of the dimension through it.
