I have something to do later,"Kakashi said, starting to walk forward."Wait... wait a minute, Kakashi, are you researching chakra nature transformation?
That is, turning chakra into a 'current'-like property?"Nohara Rin tried to find a common topic with Kakashi.
Although she hadn't completed this step that day, she was meticulous and had memorized all the theoretical knowledge Raizen had taught her.
Kakashi's steps paused, and he turned to look at Nohara Rin.
She clasped her hands in front of her abdomen, her brown eyes fixed on Kakashi, worry etched across her face.
She looked unusually haggard."You also learned chakra nature transformation?"Kakashi was surprised.
These skills were hardly taught in the ninja academy, as only Chunin-level and above ninjas would explore them.
It was far beyond Genin, or even trainees not yet at that level.
Yes, I learned a little,"Rin recited some of what Raizen had taught her from memory.Kakashi realized Rin actually knew quite a lot.
He had been developing Lightning Release ninjutsu alone and lacked someone to discuss and corroborate his ideas with.
"Rin, what do you think about activating the cells in the wrist and palm?"Kakashi asked. Nohara Rin thought for a moment and shared her guess.
Medical ninjutsu and Lightning Release were somewhat similar, both affecting the human body, though medical ninjutsu's research into cells was unparalleled.
"Let's find a place to discuss this in detail,"Kakashi said, intrigued. He hadn't expected Rin's insights.
This ninjutsu was still in early stages; much more needed to be added to complete it."Okay,"Nohara Rin softly hummed in agreement, quickly following Kakashi.
Her heart leaped with joy, and her worry eased slightly.
If she could get closer to Kakashi, she could guide him back.....she prayed.
Ninja Academy.
More than half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Raizen's life returned to normal.
Raizen listened to his Chunin instructors explain the history of the ninja world.
This world knew little about the myths from a thousand years before the Warring States period.
Even the Sage of Six Paths was vague about them, and no one knew much about Kaguya, the progenitor of chakra.
Ironically, the Uchiha clan recorded the most historical secrets; in a secret chamber of the Naka Shrine lay the ancestral "Uchiha Stone Tablet.""
It's starting to slow down,"Raizen thought, listening to his Chunin instructor while pondering the Sharingan.
Its feedback wasn't as rapid as initially, gradually slowing to synchronize his physical and mental power.
The Sharingan reflected the mind; its initial rapid enhancement of strength had made the Uchiha feared.Soon, the bell rang, signaling recess.
Kurenai was first to run to Raizen again, asking if he understood the previous lesson. Raizen answered her questions while reading.
Kurenai mostly spoke, and Raizen replied occasionally. He was preparing to graduate early, compressing years of knowledge into a short time.
The Uchiha generally had good talent, and Raizen memorized quickly, aided by his two special skills: "reading absorption" and "basic memory.""Kurenai went to see Raizen again.
Seems she's really interested in genjutsu,"Akimichi Domaru said, taking a bag of potato chips from his pocket.
I've been training in the clan for several days recently,"Sarutobi Asuma said confidently.
His genjutsu grades had been mediocre, and after days of training, little improvement had occurred.
Could he match Raizen, an Uchiha without relying on the Sharingan? Without it, Uchiha were just so-so.
"Impressive,"Akimichi Domaru said, swallowing a chip, pleased as long as he could eat and drink daily. Sarutobi Asuma was speechless.
Without the Sarutobi clan's consistent good relations with the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, he wouldn't know how he got along with Domaru.
Sarutobi Asuma noticed Raizen had said something that made Yuhi Kurenai laugh.
He stood and walked over."Hey, Uchiha Raizen, you promised to spar with me last time, don't forget."
It happened to be the start of the month. Sarutobi Asuma tapped the table, lowering his voice in front of Kurenai, making it sound deep and masculine."
Don't worry,"Raizen nodded. Seeing his agreement and Kurenai's gaze, Sarutobi Asuma returned to his seat satisfied.
"Will you win?"Obito, sitting in front of Sarutobi Asuma, asked.
He wanted to see Raizen's expression if he lost. Lately, without Kakashi at school, Obito was bored and eager to see Raizen suffer a setback."
I will,"Sarutobi Asuma nodded, glancing at Obito with slight pity.
Last time, Obito had sparred with Raizen and lost, losing face in front of Nohara Rin.
This time, he would show Obito what a real man was."Raizen, if I beat Asuma, you won't mind, will you?"Raizen asked Kurenai.
Sarutobi Asuma wasn't yet the mature man he would become; he was just a child like Naruto, craving attention and recognition.
The son of a hero often faces greater pressure than other children because people inevitably make comparisons."
It's good that Raizen beats Asuma; it'll temper his arrogance.
Asuma is too rebellious,"Yuhi Kurenai nodded. She hadn't spent much time with Sarutobi Asuma lately.
However, the two had always had a good relationship, practically childhood friends.
She knew a little about the father-son relationship between Sarutobi Asuma and the Third Hokage.
