After putting away the Medical Ninjutsu scroll, Naruto picked up the second scroll and unfolded it.
Inside was the complete training method for the Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
The Lightning Release Chakra Mode covers the entire body with Lightning Chakra, thereby stimulating and activating the body and nerve cells to obtain extraordinary speed and defense. When activated, lightning wraps around the entire body, like wearing armor woven from lightning.
There are two thresholds for learning it.
First, one must master Lightning Release Chakra nature transformation, a condition he already met.
Second, it requires stabilizing and evenly covering every cell in the body with Lightning Chakra, which demands a high level of precision in Chakra control.
Furthermore, this technique places a tremendous burden on the body. The user must possess a tempered physique and a vast amount of Chakra as support.
Naruto met both of these conditions simultaneously.
His Chakra control could reach a microscopic level under Absolute Control, and his physical strength, after being tempered by Asura Chakra, was far beyond that of an ordinary ninja.
After running through the Chakra circulation paths and the specific methods of cell activation for the Lightning Release Chakra Mode in his mind, he discovered that this technique had many similarities in principle to his Kurama Mode, except that Kurama Mode used Kurama's Chakra to wrap around the body, while the Lightning Release Chakra Mode used his own Lightning Chakra to activate the cells.
If he could overlay the two—using the Lightning Release armor internally to activate cells and enhance speed and reaction, and the Kurama Mode externally to provide power amplification and sensory expansion, coupled with the extreme speed of the Light Release—under the triple overlay, he might be able to reach a new level.
Subsequently, Naruto put away the Lightning Release Chakra Mode scroll and picked up the third scroll.
Heavenly Transfer Technique!
Unlike the Flying Thunder God Technique, the core of the Heavenly Transfer Technique is to teleport a target to a marked point. Both share the same set of spatial coordinate sensing systems, but their application directions are completely different.
Heavenly Transfer Technique has extremely high requirements for the strength of the teleportation target. Ordinary ninjas would be torn apart by spatial turbulence during the teleportation process, so Kumogakure usually only uses it to transport supplies or elite ninjas with sufficiently strong physiques.
The key to learning it lies in the precision of sensing spatial coordinates, strengthening the spatial endurance of the teleportation target, and achieving the precise ratio of Chakra when teleporting objects.
Naruto placed the technique diagram of the Heavenly Transfer Technique and the technique diagram of the Flying Thunder God Technique together to quickly compare them.
The two space-time Ninjutsu have many commonalities, especially in the method of sensing spatial coordinates and the construction logic of spatial channels. The underlying principles are almost from the same source.
He estimated that with his mastery of the Flying Thunder God Technique, it wouldn't take long to get the hang of the Heavenly Transfer Technique.
After reading, Naruto put away the three scrolls and fished out another sealing scroll from the depths of his ninja tool pouch.
The scroll was undone, and as a puff of white smoke dissipated, a complete arm appeared. The skin of the arm was an unnatural pale color, and ten Sharingan were embedded in it. This was Danzo's arm, which he had personally torn off from Danzo and kept sealed in the sealing scroll ever since.
These ten eyes were scavenged by Danzo from the ruins of the Uchiha clan massacre. Originally, he intended to keep them as spare supplies. Ten Three-Tomoe Sharingan could be used as consumables for Izanagi at critical moments.
But now his Kamimusubi could devour any eye and convert it into ocular power. Theoretically, devouring all ten Three-Tomoe Sharingan should be able to raise his ocular power by another notch.
Naruto stared at the arm for a long while, and finally resealed Danzo's arm.
With his current ocular power level, the improvement that could be brought by devouring ten ordinary Three-Tomoe Sharingan was negligible. Instead of devouring them now, it was better to keep them and wait until he found a better way to handle them in the future. Anyway, they wouldn't run away while on him, and he could devour them whenever he wanted.
Just as Naruto was putting away the scrolls, the villa's doorbell rang.
Naruto tidied up a bit, walked out of the training room, crossed the living room, and pushed open the front door.
The moment he opened the door, he was stunned.
He saw that all the Konoha rookies were standing outside his door. Everyone was carrying things in their hands: vegetables, meat, drinks, snacks, and so on.
Shikamaru, Choji, Ino, Hinata, Shino, Kiba, Neji, Tenten, Rock Lee, as well as Sakura and Karin, were all standing in the sunset.
"Why are you all here?" Naruto was a bit surprised, his gaze sweeping over everyone's faces.
Karin explained, "Everyone says you've changed so much in the last two days, so we thought we'd come over to see you and, by the way, take a look at your new house."
Hinata held a bento box in her hands, her voice soft. "Naruto-kun, are we disturbing you? We didn't give you any notice before coming."
Naruto was taken aback, then smiled and stepped aside to open the doorway.
"How could you be disturbing me? Everyone, hurry in, don't just stand at the door."
The group filed in, greeting him one by one as they passed by him.
Rock Lee looked around as soon as he entered.
"Wow! A detached courtyard house. Naruto, your living situation is just too good. This is just perfect for a youthful outdoor barbecue."
"This is the house my parents left me." Naruto followed behind and explained.
Hinata and Karin led everyone into the living room, as if they knew the way well.
Ino placed the fruit on the table and turned to look around the living room. Her gaze rested for a few seconds on Hinata's natural expression. She leaned in and asked in a low voice, "Hinata, you seem very familiar with Naruto's house?"
Hinata blushed and placed the bento on the table. "I've... been here a few times before."
Ino looked at Hinata thoughtfully, then glanced at Karin, who was helping out in the kitchen.
Naruto, seeing the vegetables, meat, and fruit that everyone had brought, immediately suggested they all have a barbecue in the courtyard.
Everyone nodded, then divided the tasks and started cleaning up.
After some busy work, they sat around the stone table.
Everyone chatted while eating, their topics ranging from Naruto's new home to the future of their generation in Konoha.
"Speaking of which, Naruto, what's the deal with your black hair? It was yellow just two days ago, how did it suddenly turn into this?" Ino stared at Naruto.
"My bloodline has undergone atavism, so the color of my hair and eyes has changed." Naruto explained.
Everyone, except for Shikamaru, wore an expression of sudden realization.
Everyone present knew that there were things about Naruto that couldn't be explained by an ordinary ninja, and if he didn't talk about it, they didn't need to get to the bottom of it.
Ino asked, "Naruto... um, did you really fuse three types of Chakra nature transformation to create a Kekkei Tota?"
"Shikamaru said you defeated the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki using Light Release. Just hearing the description sounds absurd."
"The Tsuchikage's Dust Release can disintegrate all matter. What's special about your Light Release?"
Naruto glanced at Shikamaru, and Shikamaru immediately shifted his gaze to the grill, wearing an expression that said, "Don't look at me."
Naruto wiped the corner of his mouth and explained, "Yeah, I just fused the Wind, Lightning, and Fire Chakra nature transformations. I got lucky and hit the right ratio, obtaining the Kekkei Tota, Light Release."
"I can fly, move at high speeds, and attack with light. Strictly speaking, the principle is indeed on the same level as Dust Release, just with a different form of expression."
"Naruto, show us. We haven't seen that Light Release of yours with our own eyes yet." Kiba slapped the table and stood up.
The eyes of the others lit up as well. They all put down their skewers and turned their heads to look at Naruto expectantly. After all, this was the first time everyone present had heard the name Light Release.
Naruto looked around at the expectant gazes of the group and smiled. "Sure."
He walked to the open space in the middle of the courtyard.
Under everyone's gaze, his body floated into the air. Immediately after, his whole body emitted a soft white light, illuminating the entire courtyard as if it were broad daylight.
He flew in a circle above the courtyard, sometimes accelerating and sometimes hovering. Then he landed in the center of the courtyard, the light around his body receding.
"Wow, that's just too cool! Is this Light Release?" Kiba exclaimed.
Rock Lee's eyes were already burning with raging flames. "This is Light Release, this is the power that defeated Eight-Tails. That's so passionate, Naruto! When will you training Taijutsu with Guy-sensei?"
After a moment of clamor, everyone picked up their skewers again, and the atmosphere became lively once more.
Everyone ate and chatted, the atmosphere gradually relaxing as the topic shifted from Ninjutsu and combat to their respective dreams.
Finally, everyone's gaze naturally fell on Naruto.
Naruto smiled and said, "My dream is to change the world. To make sure there is no more war, to ensure children like us don't have to go to the battlefield from a young age, and so that no one has to be treated as a tool or a monster because of their background or bloodline."
"And the first step is to become stronger and become Hokage. Everyone, I'm counting on you in the future."
