62 Chapter 62: Time Element Kekkei Genkai

"Even I'm not sure I can handle you now."

Orochimaru stared at Yeruashi, he has yet to find himself in a situation where the student is superior to the master, but now there is a feeling that he is not far off.

Hearing Orochimaru's words, Yeruashi smiled and said, "You overestimate me too much, Sensei. Only thanks to your wise advice, I was able to develop several Jutsu that have significant side effects. I am still far away from Orochimaru-Sensei."

When Orochimaru said that he wasn't sure how to deal with him, he didn't mean that he wasn't sure if he could win against him, but that he wasn't sure if he could capture or kill him, after all, winning and killing were two different concepts, and with Yeruashi's speed, if he was bent on escaping, there really wasn't much Orochimaru could do about it.

Unless he set up sealing barrier beforehand.

Yeruashi's response was humble, though in reality it was hard to know what the outcome would be if he faces Orochimaru in battle.

With Orochimaru's amount of chakra, his perception and his near-zero weaknesses in all areas, not to mention his myriad methods of conserving his life, it was unrealistic to kill Orochimaru in seconds, and he would only be locked in a battle of attrition.

In the end, he would either drain Orochimaru's chakra, or Orochimaru would use barrier ninjutsu or Fuuinjutsu to hold him back, and it would be difficult to calculate how long the battle would last.

But all in all.

Now he really had the power of the Kage level!

Besides, it was a Kage level that was even harder to deal with than Orochimaru!

Relying on his speed and ability to rewind time, he had a certain amount of fighting power even against an existence like Orochimaru, and as for average Jounin and Elite Jounin, they wouldn't be able to withstand more than a few hits from him.

"Mmm..."

Hearing Yeruashi's words, Orochimaru stared at Yeruashi for a few seconds and said, "That ability to increase the frequency of movement.... It's not just a Jutsu, is it?"

Yeruashi showed no surprise, for someone with Orochimaru's level of knowledge, it wasn't hard to notice the state of time acceleration in him after observing him during the battle.

Hachimon Tonko could only subtly increase the speed, but he can't increase the body's frequency rate like when he was fighting on the battlefield, so the situation couldn't be explained by too high speed.

"Sensei is as insightful as ever."

"It's true that it's not a mere Jutsu, it's a Kekkei Genkai, which can boost my speed in all aspects and allowing me to accelerate my body speed."

Yeruashi admitted frankly.

For him, nowadays, admitting that he possessed a Kekkei Genkai was no longer a big deal, every Kage level ninja had some unique secret technique at one time or another.

Slightly surprised, Orochimaru showed a hint of interest in his gaze and said, "A first generation Kekkei Genkai?"

Aside from Kekkei Genkai such as Byakugan and Sharingan, which had been passed down long ago, Kekkei Genkai such as jinton (Dust Release) and Shakuton (Burning Release) are not usually passed down within a clan, but only awakened in certain random individuals.

These types of ninja are known as first generation successor.

The first-generation Kekkei Genkai may have almost zero chance of awakening in the next generation.

The most stable Kekkei Genkai in the ninja world is the Byakugan, which the entire Hyuga clan possesses, while not all members of the Uchiha clan will succeed in awakening the Sharingan,,, and others, such as Hyōton, Ice release of the Yuki clan, and the Shikotsumyaku, the Kekkei Genkai of the Kaguya clan, have an even lower rate of awakening

"Yes."

Yeruashi nodded.

Orochimaru said thoughtfully, "The fusion of natural elements doesn't have the ability to increase the frequency, by inference a Kekkei Genkai shouldn't be able to either, looking at your situation, a Yin type Kekkei Genkai also has no connection, it should be a mutation of a Yang type Kekkei Genkai..."

"No, that's not right."

Orochimaru's eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "A Yang-type mutated Kekkei Genkai Genkai, which increases the speed and reaction speed of the physical body, is based on "Physical", your ability is not a physical change, it is a "Frequency" change, however they do not meet the criteria for Yin-type Kekkei Genkai..."

Thinking about it.

Orochimaru suddenly took a breath, with a throbbing excitement in his eyes as he looked at Yeruashi and said, "A Kekkei Genkai that alters the flow of time?"

Of all the Jutsu in the ninja world, the most difficult to master was the Space-Time Jutsu, and most of the Jutsu that are referred to as "Space-Time Jutsu" only involve space, not time.

In the past, Orochimaru had sought a lot of information on this subject.

The only mention of an ability that affects time goes back hundreds of years, it was the Mangekyou Sharingan of a member of the Uchiha Clan.

The description of the ability itself is rather vague, but it is known that relying on it, this member of the Uchiha Clan attempted to unify the ninja world, but ultimately failed.

He was stopped by a member of the Senju Clan.

It happened at the beginning of the Warring States period, hundreds of years before Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama were born, so the information was so vague that it was somewhat uncertain whether this was a true story or a story invented by their descendants.

If Yeruashi had met Orochimaru's gaze a few months ago, he probably would have panicked, but now that he was strong enough, he could meet his gaze calmly.

He was worthy of Orochimaru.

Just with a little observation and deduction, he had almost come to the conclusion that his ability did not belong to the Kekkei Genkai formed by the natural elements, nor to the Yin and Yang elements, so the only explanation left was the Space-Time elements.

"As expected from Orochimaru-sensei, just a cursory observation during the battle and you've already made such an accurate judgment..."

As there was no other possible explanation that could convince someone as perceptive as Orochimaru, Yeruashi calmly replied, "I have done some tests to determine that this ability does not belong to the five natural elements, nor does it belong to the Yin and Yang elements, and it also has nothing to do with the Space element, so it should be related to the Time element."

With Yeruashi's current strength, the question of whether or not he revealed that he possessed a temporal ability would no longer cause too much impact.

Furthermore.

Space-type Jutsu is extremely difficult to stop, and directly countering Time-type Jutsu is even more difficult, if you can't use another Time-type Jutsu to interfere or block, then the concept of counterattack simply doesn't exist!

Above all other Jutsu.

Unsolvable Skill.

This is the power of time manipulation!

"This is incredible!"

Although he was already almost certain, Orochimaru let out a gasp when he heard Yeruashi's words, looking at him as if he was looking at a precious gem.

What he longs for most is eternal life, and the main enemy of life is time, And not even existences like Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara could defeat the power of time!

And now.

With Yeruashi's Kekkei Genkai as his base, he might have a chance to touch the power of time, A chance to gain the power of time and obtain his much-loved immortality!

In Orochimaru's mind at this moment, Yeruashi's value had become something that surpasses all of his experimental subjects, all of his experimental data, and even if Sarutobi Hiruzen gave the order to kill Yeruashi at this very moment, he would not hesitate to disobey the order

Or he might even leave Konoha together with Yeruashi!
