23 Chapter 22: Development Blocked Windfalls
Shiyu came to the forest where he was brought by the Gekko Hayate last time.
At this moment, the sky has completely darkened.
The surrounding area was also very quiet, and there was no sound at all.
Such an environment is very suitable for Shiyu to perform chakra fusion.
"Okay! Let's start!"
He should be able to complete it in one night!
Shiyu thought, but when it really started, he began to really understand the difficulty of performing the technique.
Kekkei Genkai are longed for by many shinobi. It is sought after by many villages.
Yet, developing it is an entirely different matter. It is not a trivial matter.
Boom!!
Boom!!!
Boom!!!!
Every ten minutes, there was an explosion in the forest.
Shiyu carefully controlled the two strands of chakra, after almost burning down the house before.
Now, Shiyu has only a little bit of fire and water chakra at the same time.
The chakra of these two attributes were of a small amount.
If used alone, the power of the explosion is not as powerful, although, it can be used with the two strands of chakra to try to fuse them together.
The multiple explosions gave Shiyu a headache.
There were dozens of explosions in succession. Although Shiyu was not injured because he had his chakra under deliberate control.
It's just that his hands were torn and he had many wounds on them.
The terrible thing is that his clothes were torn to shreds by the berserk chakra. And Shiyu had tried to adjust how much chakra he had to use. Something was still wrong even though he tried more than a dozen attempts at making the Boil-Release.
However, there is still no change.
"Damn!"
"Not even a little bit of progress?!"
The two strands of water and fire chakra's will explode as soon as they touch, let alone merge, it is best not to even let them touch each other.
Shiyu was feeling helpless as he lay on the ground showing a distraught face.
As he looked at the moon above him, he could not help but question himself.
"How can the two different strands of chakra be fused together?!"
Shiyu started at about six or seven o'clock in the morning and continued until late at night. So, he was feeling a little exhausted.
But there is still no progress. Under such circumstances, Shiyu doesn't know when he will be able to succeed.
"It seems that developing a Kekkei Genkai overnight is simply a pipe dream!"
Shiyu was a bit premature in his previous bold words.
It's no wonder that Kekkei Genkai are often valued by the hidden villages. If Shiyu had been born with this ability and had not obtained it through the system, then it would have lead to the fusion of his chakra.
If he wants to master it by tomorrow, then it is simply as difficult as pushing a boulder up a mountain.
Of course, there is another way to learn the Boil-Release. Which is to catch a tailed beast and learn how to fuse the two different strands of chakra from the Biju.
Isn't the Sand Shinobi's Magnet-Release learned from Shukaku?
So if he wants to master the Boil-Release, is it only possible for him to catch the Five-Tails?
"The integration of chakra shouldn't be so difficult!"
The chakra fusion skills mastered by Shiyu should not feel like this!
[@###※: Reminder. The host may not have enough water and fire chakra power.]
His water and fire attribute chakra are not powerful enough?
'What the hell does that mean?!'
"I have mastered two Nature Transformations, but the power is not enough? Is it because I have too little chakra?"
[@###※: For example, the water attribute chakra is 80%, and the fire attribute chakra is 20%, but it is necessary to maintain a certain balance between the two chakra powers. The Host cannot do that yet. Mastering Nature Transformation does not mean that the attribute chakra's power is fixed.]
"Is there such a thing?"
Shiyu sat up and thought about it.
If it is understood according to this statement, then mastering Nature Transformation is only able to better exert the power of attributes, but that does not mean that the power of the attributes cannot be continuously enhanced.
'My current attribute strength is too weak, and no matter how hard I try, I can't meet the minimum requirements for making a Kekkei Genkai.'
That's why he keeps failing and making no progress at all.
"It seems that in order to successfully develop the Boil-Release, what needs to be done first is adjusting the power of fire and water chakra's!"
Just like the active skill bar said, the 20% power of fire chakra needs to be equal to the power of 80% water chakra. (A/N: Apparently the active skill bar is the one talking. So, the system might be named something else.)
This situation cannot be achieved at all when the strength of the two chakra attributes is not the same.
'I see!'
Using this kind of thinking to think about other Kekkei Genkai, it seems to make sense.
Although it is an attribute fusion, it should apply to other things as well.
It is impossible for the fusion of each Kekkei Genkai to be 50% to 50%. There must be a difference, but how is he supposed to maintain the balance between the different ratios?
Just like a catty of cotton and a catty of iron. Although they weigh the same, they have different volumes!
"Then I need to increase the power of Nature Transformation of water and fire attributes now?"
[@### ※: Maybe.]
All right! The answer to this question is no.
But it should be very possible!
"Enhancing the power of nature transformation, what should I do? Practice ninjutsu?"
[@###※: Host can directly put Water-Release and Fire-Release skills into the passive skill bar for enhancement.]
Water-Release?
Fire-Release?
Shiyu froze for a moment, then immediately opened the skill bar, looked at the large list of optional skills, and directly searched for Water-Release and Fire-Release.
"This..."
Okay!
Even Water-Release and Fire-Release, this kind of nature transformation is also counted as a skill. Any ability can be counted as a separate skill!
Seeing this, Shiyu suddenly thought of a bigger problem.
"Water-Release and Fire-Release count as skills!"
"So if I put two Water-Release ninjutsu into the passive skill bar, then when using the techniques, they will be able to achieve the effect of no consumption?!"
Without waiting for an answer, Shiyu started the experiment directly.
[Passive Skills 1 and 2: Water-Release: Raging Waves.]
"Water-Release: Raging Waves!"(A/N: It is also called Wild Water Wave. So if you see that in a different chapter, its the same thing.)
Boom!
When the water was spit out, it swept directly towards the forest, constantly destroying trees along the way.
The astonishing impact of the water directly destroyed trees ten meters away instantly.
All the trees within that radius collapsed, and the sound of rushing water continued.
Shiyu stood in the same spot, letting the water flow past him.
His hands trembled slightly!
"Really...no consumption!"
Put two Water-Release jutsu's on the skill bar and unleash them at no cost of chakra.
Theoretically speaking, the usage of the Water-Release is to carry out the nature transformation of the water attribute, so as long as this step is carried out, Shiyu's chakra will not be consumed. (A/N: Not sure what the author is trying to say. I tried to make it understandable, but I am still confused.)
As for whether the chakra after nature transformation is released, it is already an energy created out of thin air. (A/N: Same thing here.)
Naturally, there is no problem in releasing it!
"Unexpectedly, the Boil-Release was not successfully developed, but I got this by accident..."
