Naruto's civilian cannon fodder starts with the three-body technique

Chapter 295 Lightning Release Activation
"But where can I learn illusion magic?"

Xiao Xiao hadn't adjusted to her new identity at all, thinking that she was still living the miserable life she used to live.

Umino Sasuke explained, "Xiao Xiao, you're a Special Jonin now, and you get a lot of mission merits every month. Although genjutsu earns more points than elemental ninjutsu, you shouldn't be short of mission points. Besides, the reform policy has already been introduced, and the exchange points for some regular ninjutsu will be significantly reduced. Low-level genjutsu won't cost many mission points."

"Mmm." Xiao Xiao nodded happily.

Umino Sasuke paused for a moment, then continued planning: "In terms of genjutsu, you can also cooperate with Tekudo to develop some special auxiliary ninja tools, such as powerful smoke bombs, paralysis bombs, hallucinogenic bombs, and high-intensity light bombs... In addition, you can also research some powders that can soothe the emotions of friendly forces or even temporarily boost morale. Combined with your own expertise in 'inspiring people,' you can take the auxiliary to the extreme!"

Xiao Xiao listened intently, nodding repeatedly, her eyes growing brighter and brighter, as if she could see the scene where she could throw the enemy into chaos and boost the morale of her teammates with a wave of her hand.

The key point is that developing these special auxiliary blades together with Mr. Kodo will definitely deepen their relationship.

Thinking about the days she would spend developing cutting tools with Tekudo in the future, Koshino's chubby face flushed red.

"Hey, be serious!"

Umino Sasuke flicked his finger at Koshino's big head, waking her from her reverie.

He continued his analysis: "As a special Jonin medical ninja, your chakra scalpel is your signature skill, and you must master it to the extreme! You can completely transform this means of saving lives into a weapon that can both save and kill!"

You could try developing an ultra-high frequency vibration chakra scalpel. By using ultra-high frequency chakra vibrations, you can increase the cutting power and penetration. This would not only allow you to treat wounds more precisely, but also, in a critical moment, when you are close to the enemy, you could instantly destroy their neural network, tendons, or even bones!

This power is no less than an A-rank offensive ninjutsu, combined with your—"

He glanced at Xiao Xiao's spherical figure again and laughed, "Hmm, a strong physique, such close-range suppression is extremely effective!"

"This is great!" Xiao Xiao shuddered as she imagined herself slicing across the enemy's body with that incomparably sharp scalpel, but then a surge of excitement welled up inside her.

"Since you admire Tsunade's power, then let's take a power path with [Shino's] unique characteristics!"

At this point, a glint of light flashed in Umino Sasuke's eyes, "Your chakra control is already quite good, which is the foundation for learning superhuman strength. Although your absolute chakra reserves are not as high as Tsunade's, and you can't split a mountain with a single punch, we can concentrate our power and combine it with your weight..."

"Ahem, your physique, coupled with specially made heavy armor—imagine you donning that armor that balances defense and weight, unleashing a monstrous charge! You'd be a human tank on the battlefield, smashing through enemies, breaking through obstacles, clearing a path for your teammates. This doesn't require a continuous output of massive amounts of chakra; just instantaneous bursts and control. Even minor injuries can be healed with medical ninjutsu. This is perfect for you!"

"Human tank!" Xiao Xiao's eyes widened, and her breathing became rapid. She could almost see herself wearing heavy armor and charging into battle with unstoppable force. This sounded much more exciting than just superhuman strength.

"Quiet, there's more!" Seeing that Xiaoxiao was about to jump for joy, Umino Sasuke quickly held her down, feeling as if he were holding down a ball that was about to bounce.

"There's more?!" Xiao Xiao exclaimed with a mixture of surprise and delight.

Umino Sasuke said seriously, "I know your chakra reserves are insufficient, and you can't master the complete Lightning Release chakra mode like the one from Kumogakure. However, the Lightning Release Activation developed by Hatake Sagumo-senpai is very suitable for you. You have Lightning Release chakra, are a medical ninja, and your Yang Release foundation and chakra control are quite good. Mastering this Lightning Release Activation will not only give you a certain level of defense, but also improve your speed, reaction speed, and burst power. In critical moments, you can dodge fatal attacks or enhance the inertial force of a tank impact, and more..."

At this point, he revealed a meaningful smile: "Lightning Release stimulates cell activity, which has a body-refining effect. With long-term cultivation, it might help you refine and concentrate this... well, powerful defensive reserve, turning fat into firmer muscle. In that case, your physical defense might even reach a new level, and your strength will be even greater!"

"Can it help me lose weight?!" Xiao Xiao felt like her heart had been stabbed; this was an incredible surprise!
She dreamed of getting rid of this huge burden that hindered her movement. Her body type, which made her gain weight even from drinking water, made it extremely difficult to lose weight. How could she not be pleasantly surprised that this Lightning Release activation also had a weight loss effect?

"Great! Captain, let's do it this way. I'm going to learn Lightning Release Activation right now! Of course, I'll also learn Super Strength, Ultra-High Frequency Scalpel, and Genjutsu!"

Xiao Xiao was so excited that she danced with joy, feeling that a glittering path to becoming a Jonin was just around the corner. The key was that she could lose weight, become beautiful, and win over Tang Jun.

"What's the rush? Don't bite off more than you can chew." Umino Sasuke poured a little cold water on you, but his eyes were full of smiles. "Let's start with what interests you the most. Lightning Release Activation can quickly improve your agility and enhance your survivability. Hmm, I'll teach you the basic principles and chakra circulation routes now."

Sasuke Umino patiently taught Koshino the simplified and improved Lightning Release activation technique he had learned from Saito Hatake. This technique mainly uses Lightning Release and Yang Release chakra to stimulate and activate body cells. At the same time, it can quickly stimulate leg muscles and nerves, increasing movement speed and instantaneous explosive power. It can be described as an enhanced version of the taijutsu body-flickering technique.

As expected of a medical ninja with excellent chakra control, and with her natural affinity for lightning chakra, Xiaoxiao understood things quite quickly. She tried to mobilize the limited amount of lightning chakra in her body, carefully guiding it to flow through all her muscles, and then concentrating it in the meridians of her legs.

A faint blue arc of electricity flickered and danced on her calf.

"It's done! Captain, I can feel it!"

Xiao Xiao shouted with delight and tried jumping lightly, feeling as if her body had become a little lighter.

Sasuke Umino encouraged, "Good, keep it up, try running a few steps."

Xiao Xiao took a deep breath, started running.

At first, she was a little unsteady, not quite used to the sudden increase in leg strength and speed, but soon she found her rhythm and her speed was significantly faster than usual. Although she was far from reaching the level of Hatake Sagumo, and not even as good as ordinary taijutsu, it was a qualitative leap for Xiaoshino.

However, after running less than two laps, the electric arcs on her legs quickly dimmed and disappeared, her speed slowed down, and she was slightly out of breath with sweat on her forehead.

"Captain, I'm running out of chakra."

Xiao Xiao was a little frustrated. She habitually reached for the sugar water bottle hanging at her waist, unscrewed the cap, and wanted to take a few sips to replenish her energy.

The familiar sweet smell wafted from the bottle. Oh, it's honey water again. Looks like being rated a Special Jonin has brought in a good income; even on the front lines, I can drink honey water.

Sasuke Umino reacted quickly and grabbed her hand that was holding the bottle.

"Still drinking?" Umino Sasuke glared at her, annoyed. "Replenishing chakra with honey water is all sugar! It will only make your defense reserves even stronger. You'd be better off eating more meat to replenish protein."

Xiaoxiao looked at the confiscated sugar water bottle with a pitiful expression: "But, I don't have any strength left."

"Now that my chakra is depleted, it's the perfect time to train my taijutsu, hone my body, and strengthen my will!"

Umino Sasuke pointed mercilessly at the training track, "Go! Run around the track until you're completely exhausted. Remember, for a medical ninja, agility and survivability are paramount! Without sufficient stamina, even the best ninjutsu is useless. Lightning Release activation is just an aid; ultimately, it depends on your own physical abilities to withstand and utilize it! Weight loss... cough, body training, start now!"

"Huh? We have to run again?" Xiao Xiao looked at the long track and felt her calves cramping.

"Twenty laps! No dinner until you finish!" Sasuke Umino said sternly, his tone leaving no room for argument. "Think about your Jonin dream, think about your heavy armor charge, think about your chakra scalpel! Think about Tsunade, the rose of the battlefield!"

Thinking of Jonin, heavily armored charges, chakra scalpels, and Lady Tsunade, Xiao Xiao's fighting spirit rekindled, along with her longing for dinner.

With gritted teeth, he finally took a heavy step and started running again. Although he wasn't running fast, every step he took carried a resolute determination for the future.

Sasuke Umino watched Xiaoshino's rounded figure running with all her might, shook his head, but a hint of gratified smile appeared on his lips.

Although the road ahead may be difficult, at least the direction has been pointed out. Koshino's future achievements may not be as great as Inuzuka Ryo's, but they will definitely not be less than Tekudo's.

If one could truly cultivate the Lightning Release to a certain level, transforming from a slow-moving ninja into a lightning-fast ninja, it's not impossible.

Watching Xiaoxiao huff and puff as she started running laps around the training field, Umino Sasuke nodded in satisfaction, then released several shadow clones as instructors.

"You are responsible for keeping an eye on Sanxiao and Xiaoxiao's cultivation and proceeding according to the established plan."

Sasuke Umino instructed his shadow clones, "Tobirama's Sound Release perception, Kin's Earth Release comprehension, Jaw's combat intuition development, and Xiao's Lightning Release activation training... Keep a close eye on them all, especially Xiao. Don't let her slack off. Twenty laps before dinner, not a single one can be missed!"

"Understood!" the shadow clones replied in unison, then dispersed and each went to their respective targets.

After giving these instructions, Umino Sasuke used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to the desert of the Land of Wind and appeared beside Hatake Sagumo.
