One aspect is the transformation of Chakra forms.
Minato's eyes shone brightly. What would happen if the nature transformation was added to the Rasengan?
This thing still requires Kakashi's help.
I'll exchange information on my Rasengan and his Lightning Style Jutsu nature transformation principle, Minato thought to himself.
Though he hadn't yet mastered Lightning Style, he specialized in Wind Escape, but Lightning Style is just another form of nature transformation, surely there are commonalities.
And as a team leader, not teaching some secret techniques to his disciples seemed somewhat unreasonable.

"I asked you to catch those mice, what were you doing stirring things up in the Land of Grass?"
When Ayane returned, Hakushi asked this question the moment he saw her.
To be honest, Ayane's unauthorized actions hadn't directly disrupted his plans, but they had given him quite a scare.
Fortunately, there wasn't any accident, and nothing was exposed regarding the Land of Demons, and Ayane returned safely unharmed.
"I understand."
Ayane stared at Hakushi for three seconds, then suddenly sighed and said those words.
Understand?
Understand what?
Hakushi sat in his chair with a bewildered expression, unsure what Ayane meant by her words.
Soon, he understood.
Standing in front, Ayane suddenly untied the belt around her kimono waist, and the fabric on her shoulders slipped off, revealing her snow-white collarbone.
Without the restraint of clothes, it seemed even more overwhelming, filled with a suffocating sense of pressure.
"Wait, why are you suddenly undressing?"
"Aren't you going to punish me? Then come on."
Ayane sat with her back to Hakushi in a duck-seat manner, her back a pure white, an expression of fragility, as if a timid little white rabbit bullied by some thug.
"In any case, I can't resist you. So, whether it's with a whip or a rope, I'm prepared for that."
As she spoke, a whip and a rope really appeared beside her.
"Why are the props already prepared?"
Engaging in close interactions with a female ninja in white over-the-knee socks certainly was tempting.
But here in the office, filled with solemnity and seriousness, as the Minister of Military Affairs of the Land of Demons, in charge of the nation's military affairs, he wasn't about to cause a fuss or do anything disgraceful here.
"Ahem, anyway, put your clothes back on."
"You're not coming?"
"Not at all."
"This was a rare opportunity to rightfully punish me."
Hakushi refused the punishment, Ayane stood up slightly disappointed and slowly put her clothes back on.
"I'm discussing serious matters."
Hakushi sighed.
At night he had to deal with Ruri, which was exhausting enough.
During the day he had to run between the office and the lab, often sleep deprived.
Women in their honeymoon period are truly terrifying.
At this rate, it feels like his waist won't hold up.
It looks like he needs to develop medicine to strengthen his waist.
"Since this time there wasn't any trouble, I'll let you go this time. However, don't act on your own next time, I'm the one cleaning up after you."
"So... no need to deal with the other parts?"
"..."
Hakushi's brows twitched into the shape of the character '井', seemingly at his limit.
Seeing Hakushi's annoyed yet helpless expression, Ayane laughed and said, "Alright, it's just a joke to lighten the mood. I brought you a gift."
With that, Ayane took out a scroll and single-handedly displayed the gesture for unsealing.
In Hakushi's surprised gaze, the scroll automatically spread open, and along with some white smoke appeared an arm covered in dried blood.
"This is..."
"Danzo's severed arm. I originally wanted to deal with him, but Namikaze Minato's Flying Thunder God Jutsu was just too fast, his reflexes are monstrous."
If it weren't for having the Byakugan, and using Sage Art Chakra to enhance her physical capabilities, that battle might not have been so easy.
Even so, in the fully unleashed state, her reflex speed was only equal to his.
Ayane knew, Minato was that kind of 'Superman' with naturally fast reflexes.
In the ninja profession, such geniuses will inevitably become topic focal points unless they fall prematurely.
"That's why I sent Shadow Dancer to you. That guy's neural reflexes combined with the convenience of Flying Thunder God Jutsu's Space-Time Ninjutsu makes him extremely troublesome. Those guys at Mount Myoboku really left me with a huge problem."
At this point, Hakushi snorted coldly.
On the night of the defection incident, he understood how troublesome Minato's superhuman reflex abilities paired with the elusive Flying Thunder God Jutsu would be if allowed to continue growing.
"And that Might Duy, stronger than you mentioned before, surely there's some Secret Medicine enabled, Konoha must have invested a lot in his development."
"That was information from several months ago, it's bound to have discrepancies. Konoha's higher-ups aren't stupid, if they spot such special talent, investing heavily in cultivation makes sense. But it's not a big problem, the Ninja Realm Wars are matters for the Five Great Nations, we don't need to get involved."
Konoha produces many outstanding ninjas, yet other Ninja Villages also have excellent talents.
Even if Konoha wants to seize victory, it will inevitably suffer great losses.
In the next seven to eight years, Hakushi isn't worried about Konoha specifically coming to trouble him.
