Seeing this, everyone in the chat room couldn't help but start discussing.
Might Guy: "What else can Sasuke practice next? Maybe he should focus on physical training like me and Lee?"
Hatake Kakashi: "Taijutsu is indeed one possible direction. After all, the Sasuke from that other world doesn't seem to have proper guidance in other areas."
Uchiha Fugaku: "It would be a waste of Sasuke's talent to focus solely on strengthening his body."
Namikaze Minato: "But things like Chakra Nature Transformation can't really be mastered without the guidance of a Jonin. It would be far too difficult to figure out alone."
Hatake Kakashi: "That's true. I became a Chunin at six years old, but I didn't develop Chidori until I was twelve—with Minato-sensei's help."
Kakashi's father, Konoha's White Fang, had taken his own life when Kakashi was still very young.
It wasn't until he joined Minato's team that he learned Lightning Style Nature Transformation under Minato's guidance and successfully created the A-rank jutsu, Chidori.
But it's obvious—the Sasuke from that other world doesn't have those same conditions.
Since he can't graduate early, there's no way a Jonin would just appear out of nowhere to guide him in Chakra Nature Transformation.
It's not like Jonin mentors are on discount!
Orochimaru: "If that problem isn't solved, even though Sasuke currently has strength on par with a Chunin, he may remain stuck at that level for a long time."
Namikaze Minato: "Maybe he'll meet a teacher who sees his potential. Just like how I once met Jiraiya-sensei."
Hatake Kakashi: "But at that time, Jiraiya-senpai hadn't contacted the village for quite a while…"
Jiraiya: "Ahem! I was collecting research material! Heh heh…"
The golden-framed screen continued to play.
[During the next period of time,]
[Sasuke spent much of his time reading books.]
[His regular training gradually shifted to focus more on physical conditioning.]
[For other forms of practice, he tried to find guidance in the academy library.]
[But it was clearly very difficult.]
[Advancing further relying solely on books was nearly impossible—especially since there were so few records on the subject.]
[Although Sasuke gained knowledge and sharpened his thinking through all his reading, he made no real progress in training.]
Many people couldn't help but sigh as they watched this scene unfold.
It was as expected.
Even though the Sasuke from another world possessed exceptional talent, without the guidance of a skilled teacher, his growth would inevitably slow down.
[Half a year has passed.]
[Sasuke is now eight years old.]
[During this period, his body has developed rapidly.]
[He performs physical training and gymnastics every day.]
[In terms of meals, thanks to Haruno Sakura and Yamanaka Ino's help, his nutrition is well taken care of.]
[Sasuke's height has grown noticeably—he now clearly surpasses his peers.]
[As for other areas of training, he continues to search for information in books, day after day, hoping to discover something useful.]
[One day—][Sasuke finds a book in the academy library with no author's name.]
["'Summary of Ninjutsu Principles'… the author's name has been… blacked out?"]
[Sasuke frowned slightly, puzzled.]
[Still, judging from the title, this book might contain exactly what he was looking for.]
[He opened it and began to read.]
["...In theory, as long as one's chakra reserves, chakra quality, and chakra control are all strong enough, it is possible to perform any ninjutsu."]
["Among these, chakra quality mainly refers to Nature Transformation..."]
["Meanwhile, chakra control determines the Shape Transformation of ninjutsu..."]
[As he read on, Sasuke's eyes began to shine.]
[This book… might hold the key to advancing his training!]
["...Regarding chakra control, it can be refined down to the level of meridians—and even individual acupuncture points."]
["If one's control is strong enough, theoretically, it's possible to manipulate the flow, speed, and quantity of chakra within any meridian or chakra point at will!"]
["If this level can be achieved, hand seals become unnecessary as a means of directing chakra flow..."]
["This is what is known as Sealless Ninjutsu!"]
Orochimaru: "I remember... I seem to have written that book."
That was back when he was still in Konoha.
Apparently, some of the books he authored were still circulating within the village—though his name had been erased from them.
Seeing the excited look on Sasuke's face, Orochimaru couldn't help but feel a flicker of pride.
Orochimaru: "The Sasuke from that parallel world truly is a genius—he understands things quickly."
Jiraiya: "You expect me to believe someone can complete advanced training just by reading a book? Not happening."
Orochimaru: "That depends on who wrote the book."
Jiraiya: "Impossible! Mastering Chakra Nature Transformation by reading? No one in the entire history of the ninja world has ever done that! If that Uchiha Sasuke actually manages it, I'll find your book and eat it!"
Orochimaru: "Remember what you just said, Jiraiya."
Jiraiya: "..."
A bead of sweat slid down Jiraiya's temple. He suddenly felt... uneasy.
He shook his head helplessly.
Kakashi had been a prodigy—a Genin at five, a Chunin at six, a Jonin at twelve.Even so, he only mastered Lightning Style Nature Transformation after joining Minato's team.
Even if this parallel Sasuke was a genius, could he really learn Chakra Nature Transformation just by reading?
Impossible. Absolutely impossible!
[More than half a day passed.]
[Sasuke finished reading the entire book.]
["So... the next stage of my training should focus on two things: improving chakra control, and enhancing chakra quality—that is, Nature Transformation..."]
[Sasuke fell into deep thought.]
[If I can refine my chakra control enough... Sealless Ninjutsu might really be possible.]
[This sounds... interesting. It's worth a try!]
