The Senju remnants of the Uchiha clan

Chapter 4 Elder Setsuna

A big enough snowfall can erase all traces of the world.

In the abandoned training ground on the edge of Konoha Village, Shiratori was sticking his butt out, looking for something in the snow.

Even though his two little hands were frozen red, he didn't care and finally dug out a wooden sword from under the tree.

This may be his most valuable thing.

The length of the wooden sword was almost as long as his height. It was made entirely of solid wood. Even an ordinary adult would find it difficult to wield it casually, but in his hand it was as light as a feather.

Shiratori performed a few sword moves with one hand and prepared to undergo more intense training than ever before.

There was no way. Uchiha Itachi had already been born and the plot was about to get on track. The genocide incident was like a mountain pressing on his heart.

Even if he was stripped of the Uchiha title, he was not sure whether Uchiha Itachi would kill him and his son while doing his business ten years later.

Chop, stab, block, dodge...

Shiratori wielded the wooden sword very well, moving tirelessly around the training ground. The snow on the ground was flying, white steam was coming out of his head, and his little face was red.

"Your swordsmanship is pretty good! Are you planning to become a samurai in the future?"

The white bird stopped and turned to look for the source of the sound.

An old man was standing at the edge of the training ground, looking at him with a smile.

"……you are?"

"Boy, you just beat up my grandson."

Shiratori's eyes narrowed: "Uchiha Setsuna?"

"It is not polite to call an elder by his first name."

Uchiha Setsuna walked into the training ground and found a big rock. He waved his hand to wipe off the snow on it and sat down on it without any hesitation.

"What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Anyway, I'm not here to thank you."

Hearing this, Shiratori scratched his head in embarrassment.

Good fellow, he is still eavesdropping at his age...

Setsuna casually crossed his legs, crossed his arms, quickly glanced at the training ground, and finally refocused his gaze on Shiratori and said slowly:

"As a genius who opened the Sharingan at birth, why do you fight like those reckless men of the Senju family?"

“My grandpa taught me.”

"Senju Takiichi..." Setsuna nodded, and then said: "But as far as I know... those brats from the Eighth Generation often interact with your family. Didn't they teach you anything?"

"I taught you some simple escape techniques and the use of ninja tools. I haven't mastered the changes in chakra properties yet, so I can't use escape techniques."

"What about the ninja tools? Shuriken? Kunai?"

"I thought it was useless, so I didn't practice much."

"Ha!" Setsuna sneered, "What an arrogant brat you are! Has no one ever told you that being proficient in using shuriken and kunai is the basis for becoming a ninja?"

"I……"

"Do you think they are only used to kill enemies? By practicing the use of ninja tools, you can train your body coordination, reaction speed, and muscle force habits, allowing you to control your body to the greatest extent! Useless? As expected of a kid with the blood of the Senju clan flowing in his body, this kind of stupidity that makes me 'miss' is exactly the same as that of those idiots!"

After a crazy output, Uchiha Setsuna suddenly felt refreshed, and even his expression became approachable again.

Shiratori was speechless. He felt that this old troll was just looking for a reason to scold him or the Senju clan.

In fact, he understood all these principles, he just made up an excuse.

The main reason why he didn't use ninja tools was because he had no money.

The Shiratori family's financial situation simply cannot afford the consumption of ninja tools, and his grandfather does not attach much importance to this aspect, so he only considers ninja tools when practicing with familiar ninjas such as the eighth generation uncle.

Shanda stood up and walked in front of Bai Niao. Even though his expression was still calm, that aura still made Bai Niao feel uncomfortable.

This is the momentum that came from troubled times and experienced the baptism of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

"I watched the entire battle between you and Tingmu."

Bai Niao thought to herself that you are so cruel, you watched your grandson being beaten but did nothing.

"Your strength is simply not that great. It's impossible for you to catch a full-strength attack from an Uchiha clan genin with one hand... This is the chakra usage technique of the Senju clan."

Shiratori nodded. He had indeed skillfully integrated the flowing chakra into his arms, which greatly enhanced his muscle strength. This was similar to Tsunade's supernatural powers and was the secret technique of the Senju clan.

This technique is very simple and can be learned quickly, but it puts a lot of pressure on the body.

After extracting a large amount of chakra, simply and roughly stimulating the body's bones and muscles... If there is no Senju's vitality or advanced medical ninjutsu to support it, whoever uses it will be unlucky. "You seem to be very confident in your chakra amount, as if you believe that your chakra amount is far beyond that of ordinary people, and you can squander it appropriately in battle."

Shiratori was puzzled: "Isn't it?"

I have the direct bloodline of the Senju clan. Isn't the Senju clan famous for their "ton" pulling?

"Another fool who was misled by the strength of the Shodaime-sama." Setsuna sighed helplessly, "The Shodaime is the Shodaime, and the Senju is the Senju. The two cannot be confused at all!"

"Even if it's far inferior to the first generation... the amount of chakra of the Senju bloodline must be much stronger than that of the Uchiha clan, right?" Shiratori was dissatisfied.

"If I tell you now that two Uchiha and Senju with the same talent have exactly the same total amount of chakra under the same training intensity, would you believe it?"

"Impossible!" Shiratori answered decisively, "The Senju clan possesses the 'body of an immortal', so their chakra capacity must be far greater than that of the Uchiha clan!"

"The body of an immortal...?"

Uchiha was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "You know a lot. The Senju clan is indeed the descendant of Asura who possesses the 'Sage Body'. It is not wrong to say that they possess an incomplete Sage Body. This incomplete Sage Body gives them powerful physical energy, making their muscle strength and vitality extremely terrifying. As for the total amount of chakra... it is indeed far beyond that of ordinary ninjas. But unfortunately, this 'ordinary ninja' does not include our clan. The Uchiha clan has always been famous for its large amount of chakra!"

"why?"

"I'm asking you, how is chakra formed?"

"Spiritual energy and physical energy are mixed evenly to form chakra or physical strength." This is common sense that even three-year-old children in Konoha know.

"Well, that's good. To put it simply... a little bit of mental energy plus a little bit of physical energy can be mixed into a little bit of chakra, right?"

"Yes."

"So..." Uchiha Setsuna smiled, "The Senju clan only has extremely strong physical energy, but what about their spiritual energy? Without equivalent spiritual energy, how can the reckless men of the Senju clan produce such a large amount of chakra!"

"Because...that...ah?"

Shiratori was confused, this was different from what he remembered!

Looking at Shiratori's expression, Setsuna nodded in satisfaction and continued, "Just like a wooden barrel, how much water it can hold is not determined by the longest plank, but by the shortest one! The same is true for chakra. In addition to Yang-style chakra that uses only body energy to form positive-nature chakra, and Yin-style chakra that uses only mental energy to form negative-nature chakra, the total amount of chakra of a normal ninja depends on the weaker of his 'physical energy' and 'mental energy'!"

"The Senju clan is naturally strong physically, and through constant spiritual training, they can possess a huge amount of chakra; the Uchiha clan is naturally strong mentally, and as long as they work hard to train their bodies, they will also possess chakra comparable to the Senju clan. This is the advantage of the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan. The growth rate of chakra of our two clans of ninjas is extremely fast, and the total amount of chakra is naturally superior to that of ordinary ninjas."

"Chakra is the foundation of ninjas. You can say that the yang-type chakra of the Senju clan is unparalleled, or that the yin-type chakra of the Uchiha clan is unrivaled. But if you exclude yin-type and yang-type chakras and only look at the ordinary chakras that are a one-to-one mixture of spiritual energy and physical energy, it is absolutely impossible for the Senju clan to be superior to the Uchiha clan!"

Shiratori suddenly understood.

Yes, in addition to using Yin and Yang escape techniques, for Chakra, "spirit" and "body" are both indispensable. The prominence of only one of them does not mean anything. At most, it means that you are more resistant to attacks or have a quicker mind.

He also thought of something else...

For example, the terrifying vitality of the Senju clan and the Uzumaki clan is actually a special kind of Yang escape. This kind of power does not involve the spirit, so it has nothing to do with the total amount of chakra. As long as the bloodline is pure enough, after being injured, they will automatically draw energy from the body to form Yang-attributed chakra, and then use the vitality generated by Yang escape to quickly recover from injuries...

And the Sharingan.

Future Kakashi is always teased as "lacking blue". The actual situation should be that the Yin-type chakra required to use the Sharingan - that is, the so-called Yin-type chakra will extract a large amount of spiritual energy, and both physical strength and chakra are composed of "spiritual + physical". Non-Uchiha Kakashi's spiritual energy is not outstanding, and there is not much surplus after the extraction. The spiritual energy is greatly reduced, and the physical strength and chakra will also be weakened. In addition, the excessive use of the Sharingan will damage the body...

So people become numb.

I don't know if Uchiha Itachi has a similar reason. Because he often overuses his pupil power, his physical strength and chakra are always at a very low level. So every time he appears in the later period, he looks like he has kidney deficiency...

I always feel like something is wrong... Itachi's condition doesn't seem to be a lack of physical strength or chakra, but more like a problem with his body's energy, or maybe he has some disease...

And what is the principle of Hashirama cells?
Theoretically, this thing can only extract Hashirama's body energy, and should only produce Yang-attributed chakra... So why can this thing speed up the recovery of "Kotoamatsukami"? And can it also reduce the side effects of Obito's "Kamikaze"?
Could it be that the Sharingan also absorbs energy from the body?
How did Tenzou get his Wood Release? Hashirama's cells... Could it be that Wood Release is actually a Yang Release? Impossible, he still knows the combination of water and earth... Or maybe Tenzou and Senju Hashirama's spiritual energy are naturally similar, and it combines with the physical energy generated by Hashirama's cells to form an alternative Hashirama chakra that can successfully perform Wood Release?
hiss--

My head hurts so much, it seems like I need to grow a brain...

Snapped!
An old hand patted Shiratori on the shoulder, interrupting his brainstorming.

"Little boy, I've said so much just to tell you that the power given to you by the Thousand Hands bloodline is not invincible. Don't forget that you still have Uchiha blood flowing in your veins!"

Uchiha Setsuna looked straight into his eyes.

"Your bloodline is the most special. You have the 'body' of the Senju, and you also possess the 'spirit' of our Uchiha. You are a barrel... without any shortcomings! Don't just focus on your body, you must also practice the Sharingan! Starting tomorrow, wait for me here after lunch. I don't want to see you late."

Shiratori looked up and watched Uchiha Setsuna's departing back.

The old man laughed loudly and crushed the snow that was gradually melting in the midday sun. The flaming fan emblem on his back seemed to be burning.

"The body of the Senju and the Uchiha's Sharingan... just thinking about it makes me excited!"

This was the first time Uchiha Shiratori met his mentor.

After walking slowly and far enough away, Uchiha Setsuna suddenly tore off his disguise as a "hermit master" and started running with an anxious look on his face!

When he asked the clan leader Fugaku to take his grandson to the hospital, he was quite calm, but in fact, he was very nervous.
"Tingmu, my grandson! Don't scare grandpa!"

You can't get into trouble!
Otherwise, who will carry on my family line and take care of me in my old age?
And you are too bad!
Being beaten up like this by a five-year-old kid?!
Shame!
