Chapter 7: Chapter 7 Ninjutsu Laboratory
Ninjutsu Lab?
Assisting in ninjutsu development?
Seriously?
Sasuke began to feel a surge of excitement. It's not like he hasn't contemplated developing his own ninjutsu before. After all, with the innate talent bestowed upon him by the system, it's impossible to learn ninjutsu step by step. Moreover, the current Sasuke is not the original Sasuke. He has countless powerful techniques stored in his memory, and if he can create these techniques using Chakra, the power would be absolutely terrifying.
However, thinking about it is one thing; the difficulty is not insignificant, and this endeavor doesn't solely rely on talent. That's why Sasuke hasn't attempted it yet. But now, there's something called a ninjutsu laboratory, and it immediately fills Sasuke with excitement. He quickly speeds up and rushes back home.
Unbeknownst to Sasuke upon returning home, Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen is observing him through the telescope technique. "As expected of Uchiha's child," he mutters to himself while watching Sasuke's test screen. Even though it consists of simple content, it's evident that Sasuke has a solid foundation. He truly deserves the title of genius.
The reason Hiruzen is keeping an eye on Sasuke today is that he hopes Sasuke will go home and stay there, immersed in his own "sorrow," as usual, rather than roaming around. He doesn't want Sasuke interfering with what's about to happen. After all, tonight is Hiruzen's special lesson for Naruto, a test of sorts. If Naruto makes the wrong choice, then... Hiruzen would have no choice but to acquiesce to Danzo's request.
Hiruzen is now relieved that Sasuke is at home. He shifts his focus to observing Naruto's current situation. Sasuke has no intention of getting involved in the sealed book incident. The sealed book of Konoha Village is not something a Genin can casually steal. If it were that easy to obtain, the book would have been gone from Konoha long ago. Moreover, it wouldn't be kept in a place where it could be stolen at any time. It's not necessary to guard against a thief for a thousand days when the thief only has a thousand days to strike.
The current incident is a matter of law enforcement, so if Sasuke were to intervene, he would become a target of Danzo, if not Hiruzen himself. The potential risks outweigh the benefits. Back home, Sasuke sits cross-legged on his bed, closes his eyes, and enters the system interface.
Although there's no change in his physical body, Sasuke's consciousness enters a chaotic area. And he's already inside. The system provides a prompt.
[Host successfully entered the ninjutsu laboratory] [Time usage: three hours, please proceed promptly] [02:59:59] [Countdown starts] There's also a time limit!
What if he develops more than one ninjutsu within the specified time limit? But it's unlikely to be that simple. Even with the system's assistance in ninjutsu development, it may not be easy to accomplish.
As Sasuke ponders, several options suddenly appear before him.
[Ninjutsu Development Options] [1: Fire Style] [2: Lightning Style] [3: Special Escapism (e.g., Shadow Clone, etc.)] [4: Illusion]
The available ninjutsu development options are not limited to just these four. The laboratory is tailored to Sasuke himself. Currently, Sasuke possesses Chakra with fire and lightning attributes, so he can develop Fire Style and Lightning Style.
As for the special escape technique, while anyone can learn it, the specific effects depend on individual talent. Illusion also relies on talent, and Sasuke clearly has talent in this area.
Among the four available options, Sasuke chooses Lightning Style without hesitation. Firstly, Sasuke's signature ninjutsu, Chidori, is Lightning Style. Secondly, he is not particularly lacking in Fire Style techniques. On the other hand, Lightning Style is relatively unexplored, and Sasuke has numerous ideas regarding lightning-based techniques.
Regarding the special escape technique, Sasuke is uncertain about what to develop for the time being. The lab offers a three-hour timeframe, and Sasuke is confident that he can develop a variety of Lightning Style techniques within that period.
If it were someone else, they would probably hope to develop lightning techniques from other worlds in the lab at this moment. However, Sasuke's thoughts differ. Instead of developing lightning techniques from other worlds, why not focus on developing Lightning Style techniques specific to this world? After all, ninjutsu originally belonged to this world, and Sasuke already has specific effects and mental images of these techniques in his mind. It should be straightforward to develop them using the ninjutsu laboratory.
Starting with the first ninjutsu, naturally, Chidori. Although Sasuke doesn't know the exact seal for Chidori, he is familiar with its power and the prerequisites for using it. Just as the image of Chidori appears in Sasuke's mind...
[Capturing the thoughts of the host] [Simulation in progress]
The lab also joins in, simulating Chidori and the requirement of using the Sharingan. Two lightning bolts burst forth in front of Sasuke's eyes. Suddenly, the thunderous light on the left materializes into a concrete image—an antagonist composed of blue energy with red eyes, swiftly forming seals before generating a ball of lightning in their hands. The thunderous eruption resembles the cacophony of thousands of birds competing, just like in the original book. "Chidori!" Sasuke exclaims. "Is it complete?"
The speed is astonishing. How much time has passed? Sasuke glances at the countdown.
[02:41:33]
Approximately twenty minutes have elapsed? I didn't feel a thing! While still in astonishment, another lightning ball transforms into a different Chidori. Sasuke looks at the luminous sphere, the energy-formed antagonist, and with a flick of his hand, generates a lightning ball directly.
This is... "Muji using Chidori?" Sasuke wonders. "Is the laboratory's effect truly this extraordinary?"
Sasuke is stunned momentarily, but after contemplating for a while, he realizes that Muji would likely be capable of performing ninjutsu after obtaining Indra's Chakra during the Ninja World War. Additionally, the release of ninjutsu doesn't require hand seals, as it was a technique developed by Indra.
Who takes the sealing process seriously?
[The laboratory simulated two plans] [Ultimately, only one plan can be kept. Please select, host.]
A choice? Is there even a choice?
Of course, it's Muji's Chidori without a second thought.
Sasuke chooses the second option without hesitation.
[The laboratory initiates the second plan, commencing practice of the first auxiliary ninjutsu]
As the voice finishes speaking, Sasuke finds himself momentarily frozen. Suddenly, his body moves on its own, and his Sharingan activates instantly. In the next second, Chakra within his body surges and develops.
