Orion didn't notice the look of satisfaction on Kakashi's face.
After gathering chakra—
He followed his idea—
Condensing it into a single point—
And firing it outward.
"Lightning Release: Chidori Sharp Spear!"
CRACK—
SHHH—
BOOM—
A golden beam shot out instantly from Orion's hand.
In a flash—
It pierced through the forest hundreds of meters away—
Blasting open a massive gap.
Trees were cleanly sliced apart—
Dozens of them collapsing.
The cuts—
Smooth as mirrors.
Kakashi stood there—
Stunned.
"…This technique…"
"…is ridiculously powerful."
He hadn't expected this at all.
Not only was the range insane—
But even at the far end—
The destructive power remained terrifying.
Kakashi originally thought—
A ten-meter range would already be impressive.
But Orion's attack—
Reached hundreds of meters.
And still retained S-rank lethality.
Even more shocking—
The speed.
It was comparable—
To natural lightning.
Normally—
Chakra-generated lightning couldn't match real lightning.
But Orion's—
Absolutely could.
"This… is an S-rank technique."
Kakashi concluded.
"And a highly practical one."
Orion frowned slightly.
"…Even I didn't expect it to be this strong."
Kakashi smiled.
"You don't look very happy."
Orion shook his head.
"I am."
"But it feels…"
"Unreal."
"I still can't accurately judge the power of my own techniques."
"In battle…"
"That's a fatal weakness."
Kakashi froze.
He didn't know what to say.
Most people—
Would be arrogant after gaining such power.
But Orion—
Immediately identified his flaw.
"…No wonder you stayed so quiet in the academy."
"Control takes time."
"You don't need to rush."
Orion nodded.
He knew—
He was overthinking.
He couldn't master everything instantly.
Chakra Discussion
Kakashi asked:
"Do you still have enough chakra?"
"The next technique will consume a lot."
Orion had already used—
Two S-rank level techniques.
Anyone else—
Would be completely drained.
But Orion—
Showed no fatigue at all.
Kakashi sighed.
"Your chakra…"
"Is probably comparable to Naruto's now."
Orion replied calmly:
"Not quite."
"After all…"
"Naruto has the Nine-Tails sealed inside him."
Kakashi smiled helplessly.
Comparing with the Nine-Tails—
Was unfair to anyone.
Second Technique
Orion raised his hand again.
Lightning gathered instantly.
"Lightning Release: Chidori Senbon!"
CRACK—
SHHH—
PIERCING SOUNDS—
Hundreds of lightning needles formed—
Floating before him.
Then—
They shot forward like a storm.
In an instant—
They pierced across hundreds of meters—
Like golden rain—
Disappearing into the forest.
This technique—
Relied on penetration, not explosion.
Orion said:
"Let's go check."
He ran across the lake.
Kakashi followed.
Result Analysis
On the other side—
They inspected the damage.
Tree after tree—
Was riddled with small, charred holes.
Orion nodded.
"Penetration is solid."
"Even after hundreds of meters…"
"It still pierces thick trunks."
"If it were a human…"
"They wouldn't be any different."
Kakashi wasn't as shocked this time.
After seeing Chidori Sharp Spear—
This was expected.
After examining multiple trees—
Orion concluded:
"It can pierce about fifteen trees."
"Not bad."
Kakashi let out a dry laugh.
"Not bad?"
"This is absurd."
"Hundreds of meters of distance—"
"And still piercing that much?"
"That's terrifying."
He looked at Orion seriously.
"If you use these two techniques well in real combat—"
"Even elite jōnin won't be your match."
"A twelve-year-old elite jōnin…"
"That's unbelievable."
He continued:
"I told you before."
"Your talent surpasses mine."
"Right now—"
"You've already surpassed Motoki Tōichi."
Orion shook his head.
"That's just ninjutsu."
"I don't have his combat experience."
Kakashi sighed.
"That's your problem."
"You're too cautious."
"With your current power—"
"Even if your experience is lacking—"
"The gap in raw strength is too large."
"It can't be compensated."
He looked at Orion—
With a faint smile.
"…At this rate…"
"You'll surpass me soon."
But there was no jealousy in his eyes.
Only pride.
Because—
He treated Orion as his true disciple.
Someone who—
Could become—
As great as the Fourth Hokage.
And deep down—
Kakashi believed—
Orion would achieve it.
