BXBX NOVEL Chapter 53: Rasengan!
Chapter 53: Rasengan!
When it was time to sleep, Shūichi snuggled up to Nonō and whispered softly, "Director, do you have someone you like?"
"Huh?"
Nonō was momentarily taken aback, then she smiled warmly. "Yes, Shūichi, and also every child at the orphanage."
Shūichi continued, "It seems like Minato-sensei already has someone he likes."
Nonō turned her head, unable to see Shūichi\'s expression clearly without her glasses, and teased, "It sounds like Shūichi has someone in mind too."
"But it makes sense. Shūichi is very popular with the girls!"
Hearing this, Shūichi couldn\'t help but think of Shizune\'s face, followed by Tsunade\'s.
He turned to look at Nonō, feeling an inexplicable melancholy.
A six-year-old body with the soul of an adult.
Nonō was more than ten years older than him!
Perverted, this is just too perverted!
Shūichi silently chastised himself, then wrapped his arms around Nonō\'s waist. "I want to stay with you forever, Director."
Nonō didn\'t think much of it and gently patted Shūichi\'s back. "That\'s what I hope for too!"
...
The next day, at 9 a.m., Shūichi, Shisui Uchiha, and Sanyō Kurama followed Minato Namikaze to the place where he was developing a new jutsu.
Seeing the large craters scattered around, Shūichi was now completely certain.
Rasengan!
Looking at the numerous pits, Sanyō couldn\'t contain his excitement. "Minato-sensei, this must be a really powerful jutsu, right?"
"I can\'t wait to see it!"
Minato smiled a bit sheepishly. "The technique isn\'t complete yet, but I can show you a demonstration."
With that, under the watchful eyes of the three, Minato raised his right hand, and chakra quickly gathered, forming a pale blue ball of swirling energy.
However, the chakra sphere was extremely unstable, with chakra surging in all directions as if it might explode at any moment.
Sanyō exclaimed, "That\'s amazing!"
The sheer amount of gathered chakra was astonishing.
Shisui was equally impressed. "Once it\'s fully developed, this will be an incredible jutsu!"
Minato, unable to maintain the stability of the technique, had to release it, leaving another large crater in the ground.
Shūichi observed thoughtfully.
He didn\'t know if the inspiration for the Rasengan came from the Tailed Beast Bomb, but the current Rasengan involved chakra spinning like a vortex, forcibly controlled by Minato\'s powerful chakra control.
It was extremely unstable.
In its current form, it was clearly not suitable for use in actual combat, especially with Minato\'s fast-paced fighting style.
So, how could the chakra gathered in the hand be stabilized?
Minato\'s version involved a single spiral. Could it require a double spiral?
The inner layer of chakra rotating to the left, and the outer layer rotating to the right?
"It shouldn\'t be that simple..."
Shūichi furrowed his brow slightly.
Sanyō noticed and asked with a smile, "Shūichi, are you thinking about how to help Minato-sensei complete this jutsu?"
Shūichi snapped out of his thoughts, nodded, and was about to speak when a sudden idea flashed through his mind, making his eyes light up.
He quickly said, "Minato-sensei, I think I\'ve got an idea."
"Shisui, Sanyō, can you two help me gather some vines?"
Sanyō was puzzled. "Vines? What do they have to do with Minato-sensei\'s jutsu?"
Shisui immediately smiled and said, "Just do as Shūichi says."
The three of them then leapt into action.
As Minato watched them leave, he couldn\'t help but feel a sense of anticipation.
Vines were not hard to find in Konoha, so Shūichi and the others quickly collected a bunch and returned.
In front of Minato, Shūichi picked up a vine and said, "Minato-sensei, this represents the flow of chakra."
As he spoke, he twisted the vine into a small ring and held it in his hand.
But he didn\'t stop there. Shūichi grabbed another vine and wound it around the first ring, but instead of wrapping it in the same direction or in the opposite direction, he wrapped the second ring perpendicular to the first.
At this point, Minato already began to understand.
But Shūichi continued, "The vines represent the trajectory of the chakra flow. The first layer rotates in one direction, while the second layer rotates in another direction, holding down the chakra of the first layer to prevent it from expanding outward immediately."
"And then you keep adding more layers."
As he explained, Shūichi quickly wove more layers with the vines, and soon, a ball of vines appeared in his hand, tightly held by his fingers.
He looked at Minato and the others, smiling, "By using the outer layer of chakra to suppress the inner layers, the final layer of chakra is controlled by us. This greatly reduces the difficulty and also stabilizes the large amount of compressed chakra."
"And then..."
Shūichi slowly released his grip on the vine ball, and Minato and the others saw the ball start to expand outward.
"As we attack the enemy and release the outer control, the chakra ball will expand from the inside out."
"Moreover, since it expands while rotating at high speed, it will increase the destructive power."
"The most important thing is that the expansion will not occur on the side of the ball that we control with our hand, but rather on the side that makes contact with the enemy."
Although the vine ball in Shūichi\'s hand wasn\'t an actual rotating chakra ball, Minato and the others weren\'t fools.
Shūichi\'s explanation was so clear and vivid that they could fully visualize what he was describing in their minds.
Sanyō was stunned, then suddenly shouted, "Shūichi, how did you come up with this?"
Minato and Shisui also looked at Shūichi with curiosity.
Shūichi smiled and said, "Have you ever seen a ball of yarn? It\'s used for knitting sweaters."
The three of them exchanged glances, then all laughed awkwardly together.
Minato then praised him, "Shūichi, you have an incredible sensitivity to ninjutsu!"
Shisui added, "No wonder you can use Fire Release without hand signs."
Shūichi felt a bit embarrassed by the compliments but also proud.
Because this idea didn\'t come from his knowledge as a reincarnated person—he only knew that the Rasengan was amazing and had a rough idea of how Naruto trained to master it, but who knew how it actually worked?
The inspiration had indeed come from a ball of yarn. Back at the orphanage, Nonō Yakushi had once knitted a sweater for him.
"Minato-sensei, you should give it a try first. We won\'t know if it works until you do."
Shūichi suggested.
But Minato was already confident. "Shūichi, I\'m certain your method is correct."
He had an exceptional sensitivity to ninjutsu.
With that, Minato began to experiment.
As the sound of wind whistling filled the air, the blue chakra ball in Minato\'s hand rapidly expanded.
This time, it was very stable, unlike before.
Shūichi couldn\'t help but be amazed at Minato\'s talent. He had only explained the theory once, and Minato had already succeeded.
Just then, there was a stirring in the tag system within Shūichi\'s mind.
