"I don't believe you still know this move. It's the one I completed before... You..." Naruto couldn't finish his sentence as he was sent flying along with the dissipating light sphere. The same happened to Natsuhi, but both of them were highly skilled individuals. Natsuhi, in particular, was accustomed to flying in the air and effortlessly nullified the rebounding impact, gracefully landing on the ground.
Seeing that his Odama Rasengan had no effect, Naruto planned to use his recently developed Rasenshuriken. This technique incorporated the wind Nature Transformation and was his own creation. He thought Natsuhi wouldn't be able to handle it this time. However, before he could even unleash the technique, he was once again astonished by what he witnessed before him. Not only Naruto but also Kakashi and the others were taken aback.
Upon Natsuhi's raised smooth hand, a continuously spinning airflow appeared. Chakra immediately took shape, forming a shuriken-shaped Rasengan. The sharp whirring sound disrupted the nearby airflow completely. The spinning speed and sharpness were exceptional. Surprisingly, Natsuhi single-handedly executed the Rasenshuriken. It was no wonder because she had devoted significant effort and time over the past two years to mastering the Rasengan, Odama Rasengan, and Rasenshuriken for solo use.
Natsuhi didn't possess any bloodline limits or unique secret techniques, but she could fully dedicate herself to Wind Release training. She used the Shadow Clone Jutsu to specialize in the three techniques, enabling her to wield them with a single hand. The grace with which she executed the Rasenshuriken showcased her efforts. Ryoha was well aware of the dedication Natsuhi had put into this. Her talent was exceptional, comparable to the Twelve Guardian Ninja. Even in the Hoshigakure, where ninjutsu was not abundant, she managed to master the Mysterious Peacock Method, which required at least a Jonin level of mastery. This demonstrated her outstanding talent, though she might not match the Twelve Guardian Ninja.
Furthermore, talent alone couldn't determine the level of one's strength and achievements. Having greater talent only meant progressing at a faster pace, with a quicker learning speed and increased efficiency. It didn't guarantee everything.
"How is this possible? This is clearly the first time Naruto has used the Rasenshuriken. How could she know it?" Kakashi gasped and quickly realized something. He shifted his gaze towards Ryoha, as if Ryoha had known he would look over. Ryoha was looking back at him with a smile that seemed to suggest he knew everything.
The ever-changing Mangekyo Sharingan in Ryoha's eyes made Kakashi feel completely exposed. When Kakashi faced the Mangekyo Sharingan in the past, he sensed an immense pressure. Now, seeing Ryoha's eyes once again, with their evolved form, the pressure was several times stronger. It was evident that Ryoha's eyes had undergone further evolution.
"He's a terrifying person. What level has his eyes reached? Even the strongest of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Madara, is far from achieving what he has. Moreover, he seemed to know in advance that I would look over here. Could his eyes see through everything? Right, he once mentioned that all ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu would reveal their essence before him. Could he have truly reached that level?"
Kakashi felt overwhelmed as he looked at Ryoha. Although Ryoha didn't emit any aura, he gave Kakashi the sensation of being suffocated, as if facing an immense mountain and a boundless ocean, wave after wave. How powerful had Ryoha become?
It seemed like he was constantly improving, with each encounter showcasing earth-shattering changes in his strength. It was truly frightening. People of his era were fortunate to witness the growth of such a transcendent genius. However, people of his era were also pitiful, as his existence would overshadow all other outstanding talents.
"How did you learn this technique? I haven't used it since I completed it. How did you learn it?" Naruto couldn't believe what he was seeing and asked in disbelief.
"I, like you, Uzumaki Naruto, possess the Wind Nature Transformation and use the same jutsu. What's so strange about that? Compared to the people around us, my innate talent seemed high, but in the eyes of others, it appeared quite ordinary."
"It was merely the result of exchanging sweat and effort. Even I am surprised. If you were facing the person standing behind me, wouldn't you be even more amazed? He has fully mastered the five Nature Transformations of the Rasengan and developed various versions of it."
Natsuhi glanced back at Ryoha, who had completed all five Nature Transformations of the Rasengan since obtaining the final Wind Nature Transformation.
"What? Are you naturally born with the ability for all five Nature Transformations?" Kakashi and the others felt their heads spinning. Even though they had been struck by Ryoha's revelations numerous times, each new revelation was still overwhelming.
"Hehe, the highest level of imitation is when the imitation surpasses the original." Ryoha felt a hint of pride in his heart. When he initially taught Natsuhi the Rasenshuriken, he couldn't do it himself because he hadn't yet acquired the Wind Nature Transformation. He only explained the principles to Natsuhi. It could be said that Natsuhi's achievements today, including her ability to use the Rasenshuriken with one hand, were the result of her own exploration, countless sweat, and effort.
"This can't be possible." Yamato found it hard to believe. After Naruto lost the Nine Tails, he inherited the talent from the Fourth Hokage. His control over chakra became even more precise, no longer influenced by the Nine Tails, and his training speed skyrocketed, surpassing Sasuke by several times.
But even so, it was through the training method of using Shadow Clone Jutsu to accelerate his progress that he managed to complete the training. Although it seemed like he took very little time, Yamato knew just how difficult this jutsu was.
To simultaneously master the five Nature Transformations of the Rasengan was no easy feat. Even if Ryoha truly possessed the constitution for all five Nature Transformations, could he spare enough attention to accomplish such a highly difficult jutsu? But Yamato quickly realized the power of facts over words.
He saw Ryoha extend a hand, raising all five fingers. From the thumb, mini Rasengans appeared, each about a little over a centimeter in diameter, positioned at the tip of Ryoha's fingers.
