Naruto: Damn!!! I am OP

Underground research base.

Shin was currently asking Orochimaru some questions about ninjutsu and taijutsu.

The disadvantage of becoming Orochimaru's disciple was that this master was quite dangerous and might put him in a difficult position. The advantage was that Orochimaru was proficient in an extremely wide variety of ninjutsu, and coupled with his frequent experiments, his understanding of ninjutsu and the human body was almost unparalleled, making him a walking encyclopedia of knowledge.

His encounter with the Hidden Cloud Village ninja during the Chunin Exams had given Shin some ideas for developing the Chidori, but actual attempts had failed multiple times. It seemed he was somewhat deviating from the correct path. After several attempts, Shin decided to seek guidance from Orochimaru.

"...Lightning Release Chakra Nature Transformation?"

Orochimaru was resting on a damp stone chair. Hearing Shin's question, he thought for a moment, then extended a hand.

Crackling!!

Chakra gathered in his palm and quickly transformed into the lightning element. Streaks of electricity intertwined and surged, looking quite dangerous.

This wasn't a ninjutsu; it was merely a pure Lightning Release chakra nature transformation.

Orochimaru, having been taught by the Third Hokage, Hiruzen, combined with his own research into ninjutsu and taijutsu, could be said to be proficient in Wind, Lightning, Water, Fire, Earth, as well as Yin and Yang Release chakra.

Jutsus like Cell Activation, which were body-related, belonged to Yang Release, while Hiden jutsus involving mind and soul, like Impure World Reincarnation, belonged to Yin Release.

"The characteristics of Lightning Release chakra are 'concentration' and 'paralysis.' It's somewhat different from the 'ferocity' of Fire Release chakra, and the difference lies in concentration..."

Orochimaru spread his palm, allowing the lightning-attribute chakra to intertwine there, and explained the key points of controlling Lightning Release chakra and nature transformation in his slightly hoarse voice.

Each attribute of chakra had its characteristics and traits.

Like the 'ferocity' of Fire Release, the 'sharpness' and 'cutting' of Wind Release, the 'heaviness' of Earth Release, and so on. The key to Lightning Release chakra was concentration.

Large-scale Lightning Release ninjutsu were much rarer than large-scale Fire Release or Wind Release. Even those large-scale Lightning Release jutsus were actually released in a condensed, linear fashion.

Lightning Release: Kirin, which utilized weather, was a special case.

Shin pondered and said, "So, when using it, I need to pay attention to maintaining the concentration of chakra... but fine control of Lightning Release chakra is very difficult."

Unlike Fire Release and Earth Release, Lightning Release chakra, after nature transformation, constantly flickered with arcs rather than remaining fixed at one point. In this situation, concentrating it was incredibly difficult. Even Shin, who had a high degree of chakra control, had always found it challenging.

"Hehehe..."

Orochimaru chuckled at Shin's words. It was impossible to discern his mood from the laughter. After chuckling, he said, "You've lost your way. Why would you need fine control? It's not like Wind Release chakra that moves regularly. Lightning Release chakra is inherently irregular. The key isn't there."

At this point, Orochimaru slowly lowered his right hand, and the Lightning Release chakra in his palm gradually disappeared. He stood up, looked down at Shin, and simply said a sentence.

Shin was stunned for a moment.

Then, he suddenly felt a moment of enlightenment.

It was probably like the saying, "unable to see the mountain for the trees." He had personally mastered the Rasengan, and his method of manipulating chakra had always relied on the control method of the Rasengan. However, that set of methods was more suitable for Wind Release, and it was contrary to Lightning Release.

"I understand, thank you, Orochimaru-sensei."

"Heh heh... Asking about this, are you planning to further develop that Lightning Release ninjutsu that perfectly matches the Hatake Sword Style?"

Orochimaru walked to the side, checking the results of his recent experiment as he spoke.

Shin nodded and said, "Yes."

After completing his training in cell activation, his subsequent training returned to the previous three-pronged approach, and the development of Chidori was still on his agenda.

Before, he could only rely on his own thinking and deliberation. Now that he had Orochimaru as a teacher to ask, it was naturally better than spending a lot of meaningless time deducing things when completely ignorant.

Orochimaru suddenly turned his head and glanced at Shin.

Whoosh!

Silently.

Orochimaru disappeared from his spot and reappeared to Shin's left, placing a hand on Shin's shoulder. Then, he revealed a slightly surprised look.

"In just over half a month, your cell activation training has reached this level?"

Orochimaru was well aware of the principle of not biting off more than one can chew in training. Even for a genius, it was fine to train several ninjutsu simultaneously, as long as their properties were similar and could promote each other. However, cell activation and Lightning Release nature transformation were two completely different types of jutsus.

In just half a month, Shin came to ask about Lightning Release nature transformation, which made Orochimaru feel that Shin was not very focused. Unexpectedly, after a simple examination, he found that Shin's cell activation had reached a very deep level.

At this level, it was already enough even for learning his 'Soft Physique Modification.'

[This speed...]

[It's probably a bit faster than me opening the First Gate at triple speed. This shouldn't be Orochimaru's limit yet.]

[I'm indeed still far from such an existence... Even after mastering the Third Gate of the Eight Inner Gates, I still can't become arrogant. I don't have the qualifications to be arrogant.]

Several thoughts flashed through Shin's mind. He remained calm and replied,

"This jutsu isn't very difficult to train... I remember you saying, Sensei, that the key to this jutsu is controlling its progress, right?"

"Indeed."

Orochimaru stared at Shin with interest for a few seconds before speaking.

It was unclear whether this 'indeed' meant that Shin's answer was correct, or that Shin's progress in cell activation training was excellent.

"Having trained to this extent, you can also learn some of my jutsus. However, my jutsus conflict with White Fang's sword style and probably aren't suitable for you."

The Hatake Sword Style was a powerful sword style, known for its speed and lethality, not a sinister assassination jutsu. It wasn't compatible with his Soft Physique Modification. Training Soft Physique Modification would not only fail to positively impact the Hatake Sword Style but might even have adverse effects.

After a slight pause, Orochimaru said,

"Your training is fine. If you have any other questions, you can come and ask me again."

Shin looked at Orochimaru and asked,

"...Orochimaru-sensei, can I teach the Cell Activation jutsu to my brother, Kakashi?"

"No problem."

Orochimaru chuckled lightly, a subtle glint flickering in his snake-like eyes as he looked at Shin.

"It's natural to look after your brother, but your brother doesn't have your ambition. Perhaps he'll embark on a path completely different from yours."

This remark suddenly made the atmosphere eerie.
