Chapter 258 - Chapter 258 Chidori Stream? Lightning Cutter Current!

Ino Yamanaka: "Hahaha~"

Ino Yamanaka: "Kakashi-sensei is so pitiful... hahaha~"

You're laughing even though he's pitiful?

Kakashi's eyes twitched.

Uzumaki Kushina: "My poor child... acting as both father and mother!"

Uzumaki Kushina: "It's all because a certain scarecrow is too useless!"

Kakashi: "..."

Uzumaki Kushina: "Plus Naruto's identity... Sigh, after taking care of the older generation, he has to let the younger generation take care of him too."

Minato Namikaze: "Kakashi, what's going on with you?!"

Kakashi Hatake: "Sensei... I..."

[Kakashi: "..."]

[Don't worry about the business of an old bachelor!]

[Naruto glanced faintly at Kakashi.]

["This matter depends on yourself."]

["Your own Chakra is low; I've helped you solve that problem."]

["Even if you don't use much, it's usually enough to maintain the consumption of the Sharingan."]

["After all, you aren't a member of the Uchiha Clan, so your control over the Sharingan will be slightly worse."]

[Kakashi did not argue.]

[That was indeed the case.]

[As for the Mangekyo Sharingan... it relies entirely on the strength of the Mangekyo Sharingan itself.]

["Read fewer little imperial uncles, meditate more, and improve your spiritual power."]

["Chakra isn't the only thing consumed to maintain the Sharingan."]

[Seeing Naruto become serious, Kakashi also became serious.]

[In reality, Kakashi didn't truly love reading little imperial uncles.]

[Most of the time, it was because his Chakra was simply not enough; it would hit rock bottom as soon as he used it.]

[Coupled with various heartaches, he could only rely on little imperial uncles to pass the time and distract himself.]

[Now, Kakashi's heartaches had been mostly healed, and the Chakra problem was also solved.]

["I understand." Kakashi took a deep breath.]

[The hard conditions had all been resolved.]

[He couldn't just keep treading water or even regressing, could he?]

[He was once a genius; even if he was a 'fallen' genius, he had his own pride.]

["Kakashi-sensei, it seems your Chidori has already added a more intense Lightning Chakra Nature Transformation, hasn't it?"]

["Hmm... I haven't been regressing all these years... After Chidori reached a certain level of Lightning Chakra Nature Transformation, its overall strength improved significantly."]

["Because it cut through a bolt of lightning back then, I named it Lightning Cutter."]

["I changed one hand seal."]

["The sound became sharper, yet much quieter."]

["Furthermore, it solved the issue of running out of steam halfway."]

["The increase in power isn't that much."]

["But its versatility has increased a lot."]

["For example..."]

[While speaking, Kakashi took out a Kunai from his Ninja tool pouch.]

[Zzzt—]

[Then, he infused the Lightning Cutter into the Kunai.]

["The Lightning Cutter can be infused into a Kunai."]

["It turns into a throwable Ninjutsu, which also solves the limitation of Chidori only being for close-quarters combat."]

[Seeing this, Naruto raised an eyebrow.]

[This also indirectly proved that his training direction for Chakra Nature Transformation was correct.]

[On the night of the clan massacre, he had used it when facing Uchiha Obito.]

["It seems I must learn Chidori as well."]

[Naruto looked at Kakashi and smiled, then raised his hand.]

[Whoosh whoosh whoosh—]

[A Rasengan appeared in his hand.]

["The Rasengan is highly versatile, but it lacks the unique characteristics of each attribute."]

["For instance, if I infuse Lightning Nature Chakra into the Rasengan."]

["The various attributes are stable and it possesses the traits of Lightning Release, but it still can't bring out the Lightning Nature Chakra to its absolute peak... perhaps because my development isn't sufficient yet."]

["Plus, the Lightning Cutter can be directly infused into a Kunai."]

["That suits my combat style very well."]

["Kakashi-sensei, you truly are a genius."]

[Kakashi's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. This kid... as expected, he has mastered the Rasengan.]

[Otherwise, how could he have known the training method for the Rasengan just now?]

[But... how did Naruto find out?]

[He shook his head.]

[Kakashi quickly threw these miscellaneous thoughts away.]

[Some things, the more you look into them... the more of a headache they become.]

[Better to just honestly be a salted fish Jōnin Instructor for now.]

[Besides, there were too many things about Naruto worth looking into; if he investigated every single one, Kakashi estimated his brain cells would die in massive batches.]

[For now, the training tone for Team 7 for the foreseeable future was confirmed.]

[Kakashi was about to leave to go be a laborer.]

[At that moment, Naruto suddenly called out to him.]

["Kakashi-sensei, perform Chidori one more time... actually, make it Lightning Cutter, and do it slowly."]

[Saying so, Naruto walked up to Kakashi.]

[He watched Kakashi's hand with full concentration.]

[Though puzzled, Kakashi did as he was asked.]

["Chidori is A-rank. Lightning Cutter is S-rank because of the Lightning Nature Chakra transformation."]

[Then, Kakashi raised his hand and slowed down his speed.]

["It needs to be paired with hand seals."]

["Unlike the Rasengan, which is instant."]

["Ox—Hare—Monkey."]

["Lightning Cutter!"]

[Zzzt—]

[The moment the seals were completed, the sound of electric current rang out.]

[At the same time, a large amount of Lightning Nature Chakra gathered in Kakashi's hand.]

[Then, that Chidori, which was originally like a ball of lightning, underwent a slight Shape Transformation after adding the Lightning Nature Chakra transformation.]

[Watching from a close distance, the Lightning Nature Chakra gathered in Kakashi's hand seemed to change from a lightning ball into a lightning blade.]

This scene also attracted many Ninjas.

This was the exclusive secret technique of Konoha's famous Copy Ninja Kakashi Hatake.

Although the difficulty of learning it was slightly lower than the Rasengan.

The prerequisite conditions were much more numerous than for the Rasengan.

And they were all hard requirements.

Fourth Raikage: "Openly stealing techniques... hahaha~"

Fourth Raikage: "Ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village, watch and learn well."

There aren't many Lightning Release Ninjutsu.

But the strength of Lightning Release is not low.

Of course, this is based on the inherent strength of Lightning Nature Chakra.

But it's normal.

After all, most Lightning Release Ninjas are in the Hidden Cloud Village.

Their creativity is naturally far below the normal level.

Looking at the others: Fire, Wind, Water, Earth.

It's possible that many of the Lightning Release Ninjutsu mastered by the Hidden Cloud Village were learned after being created by these Four Great Shinobi Villages.

And the higher-ups aren't like other villages, they are all... ["I see."]

[Naruto murmured.]

[Inside the Sealing Space, the Great Fox raised its chin, its face full of pride.]

[Needless to say.]

[This Fox is an unparalleled genius!]

[At this moment, the Great Fox reached out and bumped fists with Naruto.]

[Maintaining the School connection.]

[Because when Kakashi performed Chidori and then evolved it into Lightning Cutter.]

[The Chakra used was the Great Fox's Chakra.]

[Therefore, details like how to use the Chakra that cannot be expressed in words were all known to the Great Fox's Chakra.]

[And then they were synchronized and transmitted back to the Great Fox's main body in real-time.]

[And due to the special nature of the School.]

[It was equivalent to Naruto also experiencing it personally.]

[Inside the Sealing Space, Naruto chuckled: "Great Fox, you truly are a genius."]

["Do you even need to say it?" The Great Fox was so proud it was about to hit the sky.]

[Let's see who dares to say This Fox can't use Ninjutsu in the future?]

[I didn't use it before because This Fox didn't need Ninjutsu; simple numerical crushing was enough.]

[A Tailed Beast learning Ninjutsu?]

[Only that trash Shukaku would do such a thing.]

Shukaku: "???"

Shukaku: "#!@*&^!!!¥#*&!!"

Beep—

Without any surprise, he was muted again.

Kurama (Yang): "This is the gap between a genius and a mediocre person!"

As the voice fell.

black-framed large screen:

["Ox—Hare—Monkey."]

[Zzzt—]

["Chidori."]

[Kakashi: "???"]

[At this moment, Kakashi truly felt inferior.]

["Hmm... Lightning Nature Chakra transformation?"]

["Then innovating on this basis... how about adding a Shape Transformation?"]

[Zzzt—]

[Chidori Stream!]

[No, Lightning Cutter Current!]

[Kakashi: "..."]
