Chapter 26: Nature Transformation

Regarding chakra nature and shape transformation training, he also gave it thorough consideration.

Since deciding a year ago to formally start ninjutsu training, he had already tested his chakra nature.

He is very fortunate to possess three different chakra natures: fire, lightning, and wind—these three are famously offensive and difficult to control.

The fire and lightning natures likely come from his father; the wind nature, according to Uchiha Mikoto, comes from his mother. His mother is a rare Uchiha clan ninja whose nature is not fire. He perfectly inherited the excellent genes of both parents.

Considering the Third Ninja World War, Leaf Village first engaged the Wind Country, then the Earth, Lightning, and Water Countries in that sequence.

He decided to first train fire nature transformation, then lightning, then wind—using fire to overcome wind, lightning to overcome earth, and wind to overcome lightning.

He did not overlook this crucial elemental advantage factor just because the TV anime scarcely described it. Is Leaf's suppression of Sand Village merely due to simple economic pressure? Why must the Two Heavens' Great Wild Wood definitely ambush Lightning Village? Why did the Second Tsuchikage and Second Mizukage ultimately perish together? Behind all of these lie the elemental advantage factors of each hidden village.

Just as Deidara in the original story was defeated by Sasuke Uchiha due to elemental disadvantage, this is a clear example.

Fortunately, the household of Yuzhibo Dongshilang has detailed data on the training methods for nature and shape transformation of these three affinities.

As for Yin and Yang affinities, they must be approached gradually. According to the data he has gathered, these two affinities are considerably more difficult than the ordinary five basic natures, imposing different requirements on a ninja's physical condition and mental strength.

In his plan, after two years when he can produce more Shadow Clones, he will gradually begin to attempt them.

He opened the refrigerator and took out a large lunchbox. This is the lunch prepared for him by Uchiha Mikoto. There is currently no microwave oven, this kind of 'high-tech' gadget. He cannot easily heat it, but he is not anxious.

He pressed his palms together against the top and bottom of the lunchbox; a faint blue chakra light flickered. Soon, a wisp of warm steam rose from the lunchbox. This is the recent result of his chakra nature transformation training.

Actually it is also quite simple, similar to the nature transformation training of wind-affinity chakra. He fills a basin with water, then uses his chakra to heat the water as much as possible, bringing it to a high-temperature boil. Later, he continually increases the water volume to raise the temperature at which Fire Release ninjutsu can be employed.

Of course there are also other related training methods such as smoke and dust, explosion, impact force, etc. Each chakra affinity's nature transformation differs. For example, water affinity includes high pressure, oil, and glue; earth affinity includes viscosity, hardness, gravity, etc.

【Suddenly there's a feeling of being fed?】 While eating the delicious lunch in his hand, Yuzhibo Dongshilang suddenly feels like he's being kept, as if embarrassing the transmigrator!

Eh~ Mikoto-senpai's lunch tastes good……really fragrant!? (▽?)

At this moment, inside Leaf Village, within the Hokage building at the village center whose aesthetics are hard to describe, the corridor outside the Hokage office transmitted the clear sound of 'clack-clack-clack' from high heels striking the wooden floor.

With a loud 'bang,' the door of the Hokage office was violently pushed open, and a beautiful figure rushed into the Hokage office.

A head of smooth, golden long hair cascaded down her back, the ends casually tied into two ponytails; her skin was white and smooth; beneath her golden willow-leaf eyebrows, a pair of light brown, cutting-water eyes sparkled; her nose bridge was high, her lips lightly pursed, and a snow‑cyan diamond mark rested between her brows, making her lovely and charming.

Most striking is her ample 'bosom'; even the Third Hokage, who masters the telescope technique 'seeing widely and knowing broadly,' would unconsciously glance at it, then lecture with a stern face.

"Gangshou. How many times have I told you? To enter my office you must first knock!" He pressed down on the Hokage hat on his head, slightly blocking his view, and the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, spoke solemnly.

【Just like that idiot Zilaiye, same ilk! Indeed, what kind of master yields what kind of disciple!】

He also did not reply, and regarding his rude behavior of entering the Hokage office without knocking, he didn't care at all.

This Hokage office, she is extremely familiar with it. Whether now, with its current occupant, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, or the photos on the wall of the First and Second Hokage, she knows them all too well; in her childhood she left many pleasant memories here, only……

She treated her teacher's reprimand as wind in the ears. The blonde woman who entered merely looked at the Third Hokage with a face full of contempt.

"Cough! What do you want from me, Gangshou!" Being stared at with such contempt by his own disciple, the Third Hokage, who was at fault first, coughed to hide his nervousness and quickly changed the subject.

She had long known her teacher's true nature. Accustomed to going into battle bare, she also didn't mind, gave him a white look, and stated her purpose for coming to the Hokage office today.

"Special Medical Jonin Uchiha Mikoto, have you looked at the clinical trial report she submitted regarding a new type of effective hemostatic drug? What is your opinion on the proposal in the report to add it to ninjas' regular medical supplies?"

Without beating around the bush, she directly asked as soon as she arrived; this is also her purpose for coming to the Hokage office this time.

"Is it the new effective hemostatic drug developed by Uchiha Mikoto?" He muttered to himself while also picking up a document on the desk and glancing at it.

He certainly knew about this new drug; he had already known when Uchiha Mikoto applied to enter clinical trials.

At first he did not regard it as a big matter, merely thinking it was the Uchiha family's gesture of goodwill toward the village, showing their support for the village's current medical reforms. But the developments exceeded his expectations; he never imagined the other side would give him such a big 'surprise.'

He looked at the experimental report he had gathered in his hand.

Its hemostatic effect is six times that of current wound medicine; its healing speed is twice that of current wound medicine; its anti‑infection rate also far exceeds that of current wound medicine. The key is its price, which is only twice that of current wound medicine.

Does Leaf have any medicine with comparable efficacy? Yes! But these medicines are all secret transmissions of the major clans, and their prices are outrageously high.

Such an outstanding effect can be called a 'perfect' drug. It is easy to imagine how tremendous its help would be for wounded ninjas. Once promoted, its impact on reducing Leaf's ninja casualty rate would be huge.
