Konoha: Starting with Sage Mode

However, he felt that if he had time in the future, he could practice this sensory ninjutsu and improve it through his own talent, without needing to use enhancement points.

In the original story, Eiryuu chose this ninjutsu to combine with his Flying Thunder God Technique for attack, which shows that this sensory ninjutsu is different. If its level is raised to a certain level, it may give birth to other special abilities.

For example, when a ninja reaches a high level of skill, he or she can become a vibration receiver and even master the ability to vibrate.

"If I need to master new sensory abilities and make it impossible for my enemies to find a way to counter them, then the only way is to develop a new sensory ninjutsu. So, which ninjutsu should I start with?"

Kirito pondered, his gaze gradually falling on an option with a "+" sign on the attribute panel.

Lightning Release!

This is the escape technique that Kirito has come up with that could be developed into a new sensory ninjutsu.

Thanks to the world's knowledge of electricity, Kirito understands the physical phenomenon of electromagnetic induction.

He understood the principle of electromagnetic induction, but he was unable to develop a similar sensory ninjutsu like the Lightning Release technique.

He remembered a girl with electromagnetic cannons who possessed this sensory ability. She could release weak electromagnetic waves to sense changes in the reflected waves of the surrounding environment, thereby gaining a radar-like function.

Kirito now believes that his failure to develop electromagnetic induction ninjutsu is due to his insufficient level of Lightning Release.

After all, the girl with the superpower of electromagnetic induction is extremely powerful. She is one of the few people in that world who has developed her abilities to the limit. If we convert her to the ninja world, she would definitely be a top-tier Kage-level powerhouse, and her Lightning Release level would definitely be above level 5.

This shows that his understanding and control of electricity is still inferior to that of the super-powered girl whose strength reaches the pinnacle of her own world.

"Lightning Release, now that I think about it, it seems that none of the nine tailed beasts have mastered Lightning Release. Fire Release has the Two-Tails, Lava Release has the Four-Tails, and Boil Release has the Five-Tails. Wind Release has the One-Tails. Water Release has the Three-Tails, the Five-Tails, and the Six-Tails, and Earth Release has the Four-Tails and the Six-Tails. There is no tailed beast that has mastered Lightning Release."

Kirito suddenly realized the problem.

The one who mastered Lightning Release should be the Eight-Tails, right? Or is it the Seven-Tails?

Which tailed beast is skilled in lightning release?

Kirito can no longer recall the details based on his memory alone. In the original story, he doesn't seem to have ever seen any of the tailed beasts use lightning release in battle.

"Hmm~, it seems that this chakra nature transformation really needs to be improved with enhancement points."

Kirito suddenly had another reason to increase his skill points in Lightning Release Chakra Nature Transformation.

Whether level 5 Lightning Release will allow him to master electromagnetic induction remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: level 5 Lightning Release will greatly help him accelerate the formation of his Storm Release bloodline limit.

Once his Storm Release Kekkei Genkai is formed, his chakra reserves will definitely increase, and breaking through to the elite Jonin level with his chakra reserves will be just around the corner.

In an instant, the fog of choice that had been shrouding Kirito's eyes disappeared, and he used the three precious enhancement points he had obtained from Danzo on his level 4 Lightning Release.

The next moment, the level of Lightning Release went from level 4 to level 5.

At the same time, a huge roar appeared in Kirito's ears, making his head buzz. His non-attribute chakra began to uncontrollably transform into lightning chakra, and his body was quickly covered by a large amount of blue-white high-voltage current until he was completely engulfed by the current and his body disappeared.

At that moment, Kirito seemed to transform into a bolt of electricity.

Kirito's sudden change immediately startled his three companions who had been in a light sleep.

"Kirito, what's wrong?"

When Nawaki saw Kirito's current appearance, his eyes widened and he asked anxiously.

As he spoke, he tried to move closer, but was stopped by Sakumo Hatake and Chizuru together.

"Rope Tree, don't panic, stay calm."

After stopping Nawaki from getting close to Kirito, Hatake Sakumo immediately spoke.

"But Kirito's situation is very strange right now."

Rope Tree retorted.

His good friend is clearly not in a good state, how could he not be worried?

His good brother is now completely enveloped in terrifying high-voltage current, and there are no protective measures in place. If this continues, even if his good brother has a strong physique, he will be electrocuted to death.

He had to find a way to save his good brother, otherwise he would have no face to go back to see his sister.

Before he left, he had promised his sister that he would take good care of Kirito.

"Don't bother him. He's making a breakthrough in his lightning release technique. Disturbing him will only harm him."

Chizuru said coldly, her eyes, which had activated her three-tomoe Sharingan, fixed on Kirito, who was now bathed in high-voltage current and seemed to have turned into lightning, with an extremely complicated look in her eyes.

Damn it, I've been surpassed again.

She had read some books in her family about cultivating chakra nature, and the most recorded in these books was about fire chakra nature. She had seen several records of phenomena similar to Kirito's at this moment in one of the books.

One was enveloped in lightning, and the other in flames.

The name of the person in the clan who was recently engulfed in high-temperature flames for a long time but did not die is Uchiha Madara.

"I've made a breakthrough in my mastery of Lightning Release!"

Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo was greatly alarmed.

He had witnessed Kirito's Lightning Release before; its power was definitely not low, comparable to the Wind Release ability he possessed.

If Kirito's current state is as Chizuru said, representing a new breakthrough in his Lightning Release training, wouldn't that mean Kirito's Lightning Release is about to enter that legendary, mysterious realm?

His Wind Release training had stagnated for a very long time, and no matter how hard he tried to comprehend it, he still couldn't improve it in the slightest.

He knew that this was because he had hit a bottleneck, and the only way to improve further was to obtain a great opportunity.

He was somewhat disappointed, but not too surprised, because many Jonin in Konoha were in similar situations and had to train in new chakra nature transformations in order to seek new breakthroughs in their strength.

His choice was similar. After reaching a plateau in his Wind Release cultivation, he began to specialize in swordsmanship, honing it to an unparalleled level. He then combined swordsmanship with Wind Release to create a terrifying swordsmanship that was nearly indestructible, and successfully transformed into a powerful Kage-level wielder.

The Mysterious Realm is a definition that many Jonin of Konoha came up with after their mastery of a certain chakra nature transformation reached a dead end. The reason for this name is that none of them knew what it would be like to advance further in the training of chakra nature transformation.

But this doesn't stop them from being very excited about it, because they all deeply understand that once they achieve a breakthrough, they will definitely be able to become powerful ninjas comparable to the Hokage.

Becoming a Kage-level ninja by mastering a single ninjutsu is something countless ninjas aspire to achieve, because every ninjutsu, when mastered to its peak, possesses unparalleled power, enough to make them invincible. However, very few people actually manage to do so.

Most Kage-level fighters reach Kage level by mastering a variety of escape techniques and secret arts.

In the memory of Konoha ninjas, the only person who could do this was the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, a water-style ninja who was rumored to have successfully made a contract with the sea.

"He's only 10 years old, and he'll be 11 in a month. This kid is a real monster."

Sakumo Hatake thought bitterly, feeling a strong sense of defeat rising within him.

If Kirito truly breaks through to the mysterious realm of Lightning Release, then what heights he will reach in the future is something Sakumo Hatake can hardly fathom.

This was the first time he had ever seen such a gifted ninja, and he probably would never see one again.

But regardless, this is a blessing for Konoha.

Chapter 182: Transforming into Thunder

Kirito felt very strange at this moment. His understanding of Lightning Release suddenly became clearer than ever before. Many questions about Lightning Release that he had never been able to understand before were quickly answered on his own, which made his understanding of Lightning Release advance by leaps and bounds.

At the same time, he felt as if he had transformed into lightning, and he kept hearing various sounds related to lightning.

From the faint hiss of electricity to the thunderous roar, these sounds, which should normally be considered noise, now sounded incredibly pleasant to him.

He seemed to vaguely understand the meaning of the thunderous sounds.

Suddenly, the scene before his eyes changed, and he entered a magical space filled with lightning. Then he discovered that he was not in a human body, but a blue and white lightning bolt.

Then, he began to wander uncontrollably among the lightning bolts in this thunderous space.

During the process, out of boredom, he began to cultivate and comprehend the Lightning Release technique without regard for the passage of time.

As his understanding of Lightning Release deepened, his lightning body began to unconsciously absorb lightning bolts smaller than himself, causing his own size to grow larger and larger.

It's unclear how much time passed in this state, but all the other lightning bolts in the entire space disappeared, leaving only this one bolt of lightning, which had grown to an enormous size, continuing to tirelessly and rapidly roam this thunderous space.

After an unknown amount of time, when his understanding of Lightning Release reached a certain level, he was finally able to control his lightning body, and a humanoid lightning bolt gradually took shape.

At the same time, a scroll completely interwoven with lightning appeared before him, then unfolded, revealing more than a dozen symbols that he could not understand at all.

He tried to examine the symbols closely, only to find that his hand had somehow ended up on the lightning scroll, where new symbols suddenly appeared.

The next moment, the lightning scroll disappeared, and the humanoid lightning he had transformed into also gradually disappeared, and he turned back into a human body.

It transformed from lightning back into flesh and blood.

When he opened his eyes again, the scene before him returned to reality.

"Kirito, are you alright?"

Just as Kirito was about to relive what had just happened, Nawaki's anxious and tense voice reached his ears.

Kirito snapped out of his daze and looked at Nawaki, Chizuru, and Sakumo Hatake.

The three of them now looked at him with surprise and concern.

"I'm fine, I'm sorry to have startled you."

Upon seeing this, Kirito checked his body briefly and found nothing wrong, so he smiled and said...

"Really? Your body was just enveloped by a dense network of blue-white electric currents for nearly five hours."

Upon hearing this, Rope Tree expressed deep doubt.

Kirito's condition just now was truly terrifying. With his not-so-bright mind, he couldn't imagine that Kirito had been tightly wrapped in a large amount of high-voltage current for five hours and was completely unharmed.

"Almost five hours, that's a really long time. It's no wonder my chakra is almost depleted."

Kirito listened to Nawaki's words and said thoughtfully.

Then he continued, "Don't worry, I'm really fine. This is probably because I have this information."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised one arm, and then, to the astonishment of Nawaki, Chizuru, and Sakumo Hatake, his entire arm transformed into a blue-white lightning bolt.

Lightning Transformation Technique!

This is a ninjutsu that Kirito naturally mastered after transforming from a humanoid lightning bolt back into a human in that mysterious lightning space. When he reopened his eyes and his consciousness returned to reality, this ninjutsu suddenly appeared in his mind.

Having just received a reminder from Nawaki, he subconsciously used this ninjutsu, and it actually succeeded. His body instantly transformed from flesh and blood into a lightning-fast form.

He was both surprised and surprised by this, but it also seemed reasonable.

Because in the ninja world, the Hozuki clan of Kirigakure possesses a similar ninjutsu called the Water Transformation Technique. This is a ninjutsu that only the Hozuki clan can master, which shows that this ninjutsu, like the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique, Adamantine Sealing Technique, is a ninjutsu that requires bloodline inheritance.

Kirito now strongly suspects that the Hozuki clan's ancestor experienced the same thing as him.

"If my guess is correct, has my genetic lineage been modified?"

Kirito thought to himself, and then dispelled the Lightning Transformation Technique.
