Chapter 34 teaches Minato Namikaze the Rasengan!
"Lord Jiraiya, Lord Minato."
Autumn arrived in front of the two and greeted them.
"Oh, it's Akihi Shun-sensei."
When Jiraiya saw Akihito Shun arrive, he put his arm around Shun's shoulder, and the three of them walked side by side toward the other side of the street.
"..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was passing by, was completely dumbfounded.
Isn't the relationship between these three a bit too complicated?
Any normal person could see how strange the seniority of these three was. You call me "sir," I call you "teacher," and everyone calls each other their own thing.
There is also Minato Namikaze, who is not only called "Master" but also his grand-disciple.
Only these three people have strong enough mentality to not care about these things at all.
Meanwhile, the three of them chatted as they began to wander aimlessly into the distance.
Akira Shun also found out what the two had been talking about.
"Because I experienced the Second Shinobi World War and know the horror of war, I have always been worried that Kushina will also go to the battlefield as a Jinchuriki. I really want to create a ninjutsu and teach it to Kushina so that she can have the ability to fight against the Tailed Beasts and protect Kushina."
"Of course, this is also a good opportunity to improve myself and allow my Flying Thunder God Technique to be used more effectively. My current attack methods are still somewhat limited."
Such powerful pure love!
It has to be said that in the ninja world, puppy love is really commonplace.
How old was Minato during the Second Shinobi World War? He was already thinking about protecting his wife and creating ninjutsu for her.
As Akira Shun sighed inwardly, Minato Namikaze continued, "If I become stronger, I can better protect Kushina, and perhaps she won't have to go to the battlefield. It's just a pity that I have no clue where to start and no idea what this ninjutsu should be like. So I feel that you are very amazing. You were able to create a ninjutsu like Chidori at such a young age."
After hearing Minato's words, Shun Akihime felt a mix of amusement and exasperation. Of course, he knew that the ninjutsu Minato was thinking about was the Rasengan.
However, it seems that we don't need to wait until Minato Namikaze sees the Tailed Beasts and gets inspired before spending another three years creating them.
"That's it, Shun-sensei. I was just helping Minato think about this problem too. Do you have any ideas?"
Jiraiya asked Akihito Shun, and Minato Namikaze also looked at him.
Everyone acknowledges Akira Shun's talent, and both of them want to hear his thoughts. Even if he can't play a crucial role, it would be good if he could provide some inspiration.
"In other words, the ninjutsu that Lord Minato needs is one that is extremely powerful."
Minato Namikaze nodded.
"Will this one work?"
As Akira Shun spoke, he stretched out a hand, and with a deep "hum," a blue sphere the size of a basketball appeared in Akira Shun's hand.
Jiraiya: "..."
Minato Namikaze: "..."
The two looked at the dumplings in Akihi Shun's hand, opened their mouths, but didn't know what to say.
Although I had heard from authoritative figures like Tsunade or the Third Hokage about how terrifying Shun Akihito's talent was, it was just hearsay and nothing compared to the shock of actually witnessing it!
When did creating ninjutsu become so easy?
How old is Akatsuki Shun now? He's the same age as Kakashi, 6 years old!
Not only have they created an A-rank Chidori with terrifying penetrating power, but they've now created a new ninjutsu?
It's a ninjutsu without a hand seal!
Most importantly, with Minato and Jiraiya's sharp eyesight, they could naturally see that the power of this ninjutsu was definitely no less than that of Chidori!
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had been observing from the shadows, narrowed his eyes.
Autumn is fleeting, isn't it a little too good at hiding its beauty?
Why did you suddenly pull out this kind of ninjutsu?
S~
Could he still be hiding something?
Once this idea appeared, it quickly took root in his heart, and Hiruzen Sarutobi increasingly felt that Shun Akihi was definitely hiding something extraordinary.
Hiruzen Sarutobi is already looking forward to what surprise Shun Akihito will give him during the finals.
While Hiruzen Sarutobi was looking forward to the future, Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze had recovered and began to carefully observe the Rasengan's condition.
"What's the name of this ninjutsu?"
Jiraiya spoke first.
Just as Akira was about to answer Jiraiya, he noticed that Minato Namikaze was looking at the Rasengan with expectant eyes. A mischievous thought arose in Akira's mind, and he swallowed back his answer to Jiraiya, turning his attention to Minato instead.
"Lord Minato, what do you think this ninjutsu should be called?"
Upon hearing Shun's question, Minato Namikaze answered without hesitation: "Ninja Art: Instant Light Wheel Super Spiral Tornado Roar Lightning Flash!"
"What a long and tedious name..."
Jiraiya retorted without holding back.
Akihi Shun, however, had a completely different expression, smiling as he responded to the expectation in Namikaze Minato's eyes: "No, Lord Minato is wrong, this ninjutsu is called Rasengan."
Upon hearing these words, Minato Namikaze seemed to have suffered a heavy blow, and his spirits appeared to have waned considerably.
"I knew it! Shun named his first ninjutsu 'Chidori,' so why is the name of his second ninjutsu so long?!"
Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief. When he first saw Akihi Shun smiling and looking at Minato Namikaze, he really thought Akihi Shun had such a strange name.
"The name 'Rasengan' is great!"
Jiraiya bent down and carefully observed the various details of the Rasengan.
"Lord Minato, would you like to learn this ninjutsu? I can explain the detailed principles behind it."
As soon as Akira Shun finished speaking, Minato Namikaze seemed to come back to life, looking at Akira Shun with gratitude.
"Is it really possible?"
Akatsuki Shun nodded: "Of course, after all, Minato-sama and I are from Konoha Village. If Minato-sama becomes stronger, he can naturally protect more of our comrades from Konoha Village."
As soon as Qiu Rishun finished speaking, he significantly increased the favorability of the three people present.
Actually, Shun Akihito also had a strange and wicked sense of humor. In the original work, Minato Namikaze got his inspiration from the Tailed Beast Ball at the beginning of the Third Shinobi World War, and then developed it in the middle of the war.
If Minato Namikaze had learned the Rasengan by now, then at the beginning of the Third Shinobi World War, ninjas from other villages would have seen a yellow-haired killer wielding a small Tailed Beast Ball and flashing around the map.
"Well then, if you're ready, I'll begin explaining the principles of the Rasengan."
Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze were ready in the autumn sun and began their formal explanation.
"First, gather chakra in your palm. Second, continuously release the chakra, making it move at high speed and randomly. Third, continuously compress this high-speed rotation from the chakra to maintain the spherical shape."
While Akira was explaining, Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze had already begun experimenting.
The two failed the first two times, with Jiraiya getting stuck on the second step.
The water gate got stuck on the second step the first time, and on the last step the second time.
"If you find it difficult, you can use water-filled balloons as a supplementary training method."
Seeing that both of them had failed, Akira patiently explained.
After listening, Minato Namikaze said, "It's okay, I want to try again. If it fails, we'll go buy some balloons."
As he spoke, he released his chakra again and began trying to condense a Rasengan.
This time, Minato Namikaze did not fail!
With a "whoosh," the Rasengan successfully appeared in Minato Namikaze's palm!
Although he was not yet proficient and could not yet combine it with the Flying Thunder God Technique, Minato Namikaze successfully learned the Rasengan in just three trials!
At this moment, Jiraiya looked at the dumplings in Minato Namikaze and Shun Akihito's hands, rubbed his hands together, and felt a little embarrassed.
Even if he were caught peeping into the women's bathhouse, it wouldn't be as embarrassing as it is now.
His teacher learned it, and even the creator of this ninjutsu, his student, learned it after only three trials.
He seems to be stuck.
