Naruto: Damn!!! I am OP

After leaving Orochimaru's base, Shin exhaled.

Although Orochimaru wouldn't use him as an experiment on the first day of his apprenticeship, approaching a dangerous person like Orochimaru was always risky when one's strength wasn't sufficient.

But now, it seemed that the situation hadn't taken a turn for the worse; it was still developing along a normal, stable path, and he had even acquired the Cell Activation Jutsu.

Whoosh! Whoosh!!

Shin moved through the forest, reaching a stream. After carefully cleaning the newly acquired scroll, he meticulously read the explanation of the Cell Activation Jutsu on it.

After some study, Shin found no issues with the jutsu. Orochimaru hadn't even hidden anything, clearly stating both the pros and cons of the jutsu in the scroll.

Among the annotations were:

The human body is balanced.

Spiritual energy and cellular energy together form a balance. A certain degree of imbalance doesn't greatly affect it, but if the disparity between the two is too great, it will lead to various serious consequences.

The Cell Activation Jutsu forcefully enhances cell activity but does not enhance spiritual power. Therefore, if practiced excessively, it can easily lead to the spirit being unable to control the body. The body will collapse, grow wildly, and turn into a monstrous blob.

Therefore, during cultivation, it's important not to overdo it.

There were several similar annotations.

These annotations also aligned perfectly with Shin's own knowledge. For example, the balance between spirit and body. He had never heard of physical imbalance before, but he knew about spiritual imbalance.

A simple example: ordinary people transplanting the Rinnegan would cause spiritual imbalance, and their bodies would be unable to bear the powerful spiritual energy of the Rinnegan, leading to rapid collapse.

Even someone like Nagato, who possessed the Uzumaki clan's physique and already had a very strong body, still couldn't withstand the power of the Rinnegan.

Only a stronger Sage Body could truly bear the power of the Rinnegan and achieve balance between spirit and body.

Orochimaru's Cell Activation Jutsu was the same.

If there wasn't strong spiritual power to balance it, and the cell energy increased too much, it would lead to physical imbalance. Once out of control, the likely outcome would be self-destruction.

"Cell Activation Jutsu... This jutsu should be considered a 'pseudo-Sage Body' training method, no, it's far from it, at most it's half of half."

Shin pondered inwardly.

Hashirama Senju's Sage Body not only enhanced the body but also trained and improved spiritual energy. The Cell Activation Jutsu, however, only covered half of it, and this half's effect was far inferior to the Sage Body, and it also didn't involve cultivating natural energy.

If, on the basis of the Cell Activation Jutsu, one then trained Sage Mode, combining the two, then it could be considered a 'pseudo-Sage Body.' Kabuto Yakushi during the Fourth Great Ninja War was likely in that state.

And a further step would be the true Sage Body!

"From this perspective, both the body and spirit are divided into three levels. For the body, it's Cell Activation, Pseudo-Sage Body, and True Sage Body."

"For the spirit, it's Sharingan, Mangekyo Sharingan, and Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan."

Shin felt this judgment of his should be correct.

The Eternal Mangekyo combined with the Sage Body is the Rinnegan. Further incorporating vast natural energy or becoming the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki would lead to the Six Paths Sage Body and entry into Six Paths Mode.

In short.

With the Cell Activation Jutsu as a foundation, the fog ahead of him was almost completely cleared!

After passing through the forest, Shin returned to the village. After eating, he went back home, entered his bedroom, sat cross-legged, and placed the scroll in front of him.

"Alright, let's begin."

Underground of Hidden Leaf Village.

Root Base.

Danzo stood in a room, leaning on his staff, listening to his subordinate's report. His expression remained unchanged, but his fingers clearly exerted some force, enough to leave a slight mark on the hard wooden staff.

"Orochimaru..."

Orochimaru suddenly taking Shin as a disciple was something he hadn't anticipated.

In his opinion, Shin's future path would either be to be assigned to the Anbu by Hiruzen, or to join his Root organization. As long as he made some moves, he should easily be able to recruit Shin into Root for training.

But Orochimaru's actions disrupted his plans.

Moreover, Hiruzen's attitude was ambiguous, seemingly not completely abandoning the idea of Orochimaru succeeding as the Fourth Hokage. In short, the developments greatly annoyed him.

"How were the negotiations?"

"Hokage-sama signed a contract with the Mist... and didn't reach an agreement with the Cloud. The Cloud Jonin should be leaving soon."

The Root ninja responded in a deep voice.

Hearing his subordinate's report, Danzo's fingers tightened further on his staff.

With Hidden Leaf's current strength, even if it faced two or three other villages simultaneously, it could still fight. It wouldn't be difficult to destroy one village with an active offensive. Yet, Hiruzen was reluctant to initiate a war under these circumstances.

Now was clearly the perfect time for Hidden Leaf to unify the ninja world!

However, making peace with the Mist ninja was also good.

Danzo narrowed his eyes slightly. Now, the Mist ninja wouldn't rashly tear up the contract and start a war without seeing immense benefits. If he could find a way to incite a war between the Rock Village and the Cloud Village, then it would be an unprecedentedly excellent opportunity for Hidden Leaf.

Danzo took a slight breath, his gaze deep as he looked upwards, muttering to himself,

"Since you, Hiruzen, are unwilling, then I will drive the war."

Compared to war, compared to unifying the ninja world, let alone Shin, even Orochimaru's issues were minor. Everything could be considered after the war.

Everything can be manipulated during war!

Home.

Bedroom.

Shin had been cultivating for four consecutive hours. Under the triple-speed time acceleration, twelve hours had already passed.

He spent about four hours familiarizing himself with the cultivation method of the Cell Activation Jutsu, and the remaining eight hours were dedicated to basic cultivation.

"So this is the Cell Activation Jutsu..."

Shin opened his eyes.

After roughly a day of actual cultivation, he could feel some subtle changes in his body. Ordinary people might not notice, but as a ninja, he could clearly feel that all his cells seemed to have become more active.

The most direct feeling this brought was that his body felt lighter than before, and the consumption of cellular energy for chakra extraction also decreased.

Normally, after such a long period of cultivation, even without taijutsu training, simply cultivating chakra would make the body tired due to chakra exhaustion. But now, his fatigue was much less than usual.

"The effect is very obvious, but I seem to get hungrier more easily and need to consume more food."

Shin rubbed his stomach.

Before the Cell Activation Jutsu cultivation was complete, he was probably going to turn into a glutton. Eating nine meals a day might not even be enough.

By the way, did Orochimaru just swallow several days' worth of food at once and then train for several days straight when he was practicing this? Shin mused inwardly.

He had a feeling it was highly possible.
