#114 - Nohara Rin is in desperate need of help

"We can only know once we go there."

Minato Namikaze smiled.

He neither expressed his own opinion nor denied Yūki Minazuki's statement.

Sizzle, sizzle.

The meat slices made a sizzling sound on the iron plate, and the aroma of grilled meat filled the air.

Seiji picked up a grilled slice, dipped it in chili, and ate it, thinking it could become a signature dish; this place's taste is indeed good.

"Hiss, hiss..."

Hearing the white snake hissing urgently, Seiji picked up two slices of raw meat and fed them to the white snake.

Seeing Seiji feeding the white snake, Kurenai Yūhi found Seiji to be quite compassionate.

As time passed, the atmosphere on the field gradually livened up.

"I'm full, I'm going to rest for a while."

Kakashi put down his chopsticks and went to a breezy place to be alone.

He preferred being alone.

"Kakashi..."

Rin Nohara looked over there.

"Any progress on the Lightning Release you've been discussing with Kakashi recently?"

"No progress."

Rin Nohara paused her grilling, her eyes dimmed, and she said quietly:

"I can't extract the 'Lightning' chakra nature; I'm falling behind Kakashi a bit."

Knowing a lot of theory is just empty talk.

Creating a new technique requires countless experiments.

"What are you talking about?"

Kurenai Yūhi turned her head in confusion, her red eyes filled with curiosity.

Ever since she saw Rin Nohara at Seiji's house that day, Kurenai Yūhi had been bothered by it and wanted to know the reason.

"Kakashi wants to create a new technique, and Rin wants to help him."

Seiji said this, as there was nothing to hide.

Many ninjutsu are in the development and reform stage, and basically every ninja has thought about creating their own ninjutsu.

As for whether they can do it, that's another question.

"It's good for young people to have ideas."

Minato Namikaze drank a glass of water; the grilled meat was a bit greasy.

"But developing a ninjutsu is not that simple; take your time."

As someone who had been there, he spent three years developing the 'Rasengan' and was very supportive of Kakashi creating ninjutsu.

"I'm going to check on Kakashi."

Seiji got up and said.

Developing ninjutsu is normal.

But who knows that Kakashi is researching the S-class ninjutsu 'Lightning Blade' without saying a word?

Of course, at this stage, the technique is called 'Chidori'.

"Kakashi, how is the development of the new technique going recently?"

"I have a little clue."

Kakashi turned to look at Seiji, who was walking over.

Developing a ninjutsu is still too difficult; Kakashi currently only has a little clue.

He plans to activate the body with 'Lightning' Release chakra, allowing the activated parts to exceed the normal limits of the meridian system, instantly gathering a large amount of 'Lightning' Release chakra, thereby producing a surprisingly cutting lightning.

But whether to use the twelve basic hand seals in the seal of this technique or to create a special seal is a question that needs to be considered.

And how to quickly extract 'Lightning' Release chakra and stay in the body for a longer time, etc., are all things that need to be resolved.

Developing a ninjutsu is never accomplished overnight; it takes a lot of time and energy.

"Seiji, you have some understanding of Lightning Release, right? I heard Rin say that you taught her a lot of things."

Kakashi asked.

"I have a little understanding."

"Practice."

"It's not convenient here; how about trying something else?"

Seiji looked at Kakashi.

After letting Kakashi go for a while, his strength should have improved; let's see if he can continue to burst out entries.

"Okay."

Kakashi did not hesitate and directly agreed to Seiji's proposal.

Among his peers, only Seiji could keep up with his pace.

Although others are also making progress, they are too slow.

And many areas do not overlap with Kakashi's field of expertise; only Seiji is very similar to him.

Both are proficient in swordsmanship, and their fighting styles are as stable as his.

There is a rooftop above the barbecue restaurant Q. The two quickly jumped out of the window, using chakra to generate adsorption force on the soles of their feet, and walked up from the wall.

"Seiji and the others are going to spar?"

Rin Nohara noticed Seiji going to Kakashi and had been paying attention to the situation here.

She vaguely heard Kakashi and Seiji say they were going up to practice.

Seeing the two suddenly leave, she felt疑惑.

"Rin, eat quickly; don't worry about Kakashi and Seiji sparring; it's boring."

Obito was busy picking up the grilled meat pieces while urging Rin Nohara.

Now that those two troublesome people are finally gone, he must cherish the time with Rin.

"Let's go up and take a look."

Minato Namikaze said.

He was very curious about Seiji.

It is not too surprising that the Uchiha clan has elite strength.

But if an Uchiha has a pure 'Will of Fire,' that is a rare thing.

It is not that the Uchiha do not have the spirit of the 'Will of Fire,' but unfortunately, because of their arrogance and prejudice, it has become the 'Uchiha-style Will of Fire.'

Minato Namikaze wanted to select the next Hokage. Hiruzen Sarutobi suggested that he first build a team of his own to try.

Originally, Minato Namikaze only planned to cultivate Obito, after all, too much contact with the Uchiha would make the high-level officials and some other ninja clans who hold the village's important economy feel dissatisfied.

But Seiji was different; he received Hiruzen Sarutobi's attention.

So Minato Namikaze wanted to see what kind of person Seiji was.

"What's so good about watching this?"

Yūki Minazuki frowned.

As the leader of the Chunin Exams, he naturally could not be absent and saw Seiji's performance throughout.

This made him feel unhappy. Why can an Uchiha be so strong after opening his eyes?

And they, these civilians, have to work twice as hard?

How unfair the world created by the Sage of Six Paths is.

As the Second Hokage said, the Uchiha are an evil clan, and they are all arrogant.

"Then I'm going."

Minato Namikaze showed a polite smile and followed.

"I... I'm going too, Teacher Minazuki."

Kurenai Yūhi put down the plate and went out with small steps.

Rin Nohara also quickly said she was going, and the two little girls followed Minato Namikaze together.

Now only Yūki Minazuki, Asuma Sarutobi, and Obito were left at the table.

They looked at each other.

"Cough, then I'm going too."

Asuma Sarutobi couldn't sit still and didn't want to let Kurenai Yūhi and Seiji be alone.

"Wait for me."

Obito also coughed, despising Asuma Sarutobi's simping behavior, without mentioning that he had just said it was boring.

"Then let's go."

Asuma Sarutobi said.

He and Obito are different from little simps. He and Kurenai can be said to be real childhood sweethearts!

It's just that after Seiji came, there was a little change.

So in less than a while, there was only Yūki Minazuki at the huge table.

"Why is everyone paying attention to this Uchiha."

This made Yūki Minazuki burn with jealousy, but there was nothing he could do.

…………

On the rooftop, the evening wind blew Seiji Uchiha's robe.
