A Month Later,
Bang!
A massive boar rushed toward a young man with the intention to kill him. His speed was fast but the young man quickly jumped and got out of the way of that boar.
It struck the tree and broke it down.
Seeing this, Menma couldn't help but feel strange.
"It seems like humans aren't the only ones who can learn Chakra Enhanced Strength."
But, the next moment, a smile appeared on his face. He quickly made the hand seals.
[Tiger- Horse- Rabbit- Rat- Dog]
"Just kidding but I can't let you destroy more trees."
At this moment, a blue chakra emerged out of his hand. It slowly changed and transformed into a half-meter-long blade. After a few seconds, the nature of the Chakra started to change.
From normal blue chakra, it transformed into lightning. Slowly, the entire Chakra Blade changed into Lightning Blade. Holding the blade in his right hand, Menma dashed forward.
The boar also moved forward. Its speed was marvelous but Menma wasn't just using Chakra Scalpel. He was also using a little bit of Chakra Enhanced Strength on his foot.
His speed soared mid-way and the lightning blade in his hand slashed.
[Lightning Blade Technique- Lightning Rush]
Splash!
When he appeared behind the boar, his lightning blade had traces of blood. Soon, it slowly disappeared and the boar fell to the ground.
Thud!
Clap! Clap! Clap!
When the boar fell down, a young woman walked out from behind. She was wearing a black dress and had a smile on her face.
"Menma, you are amazing. Not only you learned Chakra Scalpel in just one month but also managed to merge Lightning Release into it. And, you just started learning Chakra Enhanced Strength yesterday and you can already use it."
Menma smiled as he walked to the boar while speaking.
"It's nothing, sister Shizune. Don't forget, my Chakra Control was already good before I started learning Chakra Scalpel. Anyway, let's sell this boar in the meat market and then return back to the Inn."
Shizune nodded her and Menma held the boar in his hand. Although it was massive, with his Chakra Enhanced Strength, it wasn't hard.
While walking, Shizune turned her head and asked.
"So, did you manage to increase your Chakra?"
Menma nodded his head.
"Slightly. Because of my Chakra Control, I could regulate more of my physical strength to create more Chakra. But, since I couldn't increase the amount of my spiritual energy, the Chakra growth is still low."
"Relax. With your growth rate, your Chakra will definitely get stronger." Shizune smiled and patted his shoulder.
Menma shook his head.
"It won't be enough. My family is common. There isn't even a single Jonin in Izuno Clan. So, no matter how hard I try, the best result would be Jonin-level Chakra which is far from enough."
"You guy. You just started and you already have your sight on Kage Level Strength." Shizune speechlessly looked at him. Even she only had the strength of a Jonin and she had been shinobi for decades.
Now, someone who just started as Genin wants to become Kage Level as soon as possible, it sounded too ridiculous.
"You won't understand now." Menma didn't talk nonsense and kept his mouth. As time goes on, they will face difficult situations.
Not to mention Jonin, even Kage Level strength is nothing in front of the main boss.
At least, he would need the strength of Super Shadow just to survive that war.
But, thankfully, that future was still far ahead.
Soon, Menma and Shizune finished selling the boar in the meat market and returned to the Inn with some food.
They directly walked into Tsunade's room.
She was just drinking casually.
"Oh, you two brought some food." Tsunade eyes lit up when she saw the food in Menma's hand. She was feeling hungry so she immediately rushed toward them, or specifically toward the food.
Menma helplessly passed the food to her and said.
"Teacher, I have already mastered Chakra Scalpel and I'm starting with Chakra Enhanced Strength. So, when will you teach me Strength of the Hundred Seals."
Tsunade put the food on the table and shook her head.
"No, first you must master the Chakra Enhanced Strength."
"But, I am not going to use Strength of the Hundred Seals. I plan to modify it and create the Jutsu that is suitable for me."
"I know but without mastering Chakra Enhanced Strength, I won't give you the principles of Strength of the Hundred Seals. Don't forget, I don't just have Strength of the Hundred Seals but also Creation Rebirth Jutsu."
"As my student, I will naturally pass both of them to you. So, you must learn Chakra Enhanced Strength as soon as possible." Tsunade shook her head and explained.
Menma felt a bit frustrated but in the end, he still agreed. He took some food and walked back to his room.
Only then, Shizune looked at Tsunade and asked.
"Master Tsunade, if I remember correctly, he should have enough Chakra Control to start training Strength of the Hundred Seals. So, why not teach him now? Isn't it better to master the Strength of the Hundred Seals so that you can store more Chakra?"
Tsunade shook her head and said.
"It isn't that easy. Otherwise, you would've learned it a long time ago. Of course, that's not the main reason. The main reason why I am not teaching him that is that he isn't ready."
"You don't think that he is only learning Medical Ninjutsu, do you? While he hasn't stopped learning Medical Ninjutsu, he is also learning Sealing Jutsu, perfecting it."
"It will take him a few more months to perfectly control his Chakra and also perfect his Sealing Jutsu. Only then, he can modify Strength of the Hundred Seals to his need."
"That being said, with his talent, it might only take a month to learn Chakra Enhanced Strength and perfect the Sealing Jutsu."
As she said, Menma started training his Chakra Enhanced Strength and Sealing Jutsu. In just one month, he perfected both of them. Finally, it was time to learn the Strength of the Hundred Seals.
At this moment, Tsunade was sitting in front of him with a serious look on her face.
"So, tell me, how do you plan to modify Strength of the Hundred Seals?"
It had been two months since she started training Menma but she never asked him anything about his plan.
Only now that he had started training Strength of the Hundred Seals, she asked about his plan.
During two months, she was impressed by his excellent talent. If he had been born into a stronger family, he would've already become a Chunin by now.
Of course, his own strength isn't at the Chunin level but with his methods, he could still easily kill a Chunin.
As for Jonin, it would be hard to say. After all, that level wasn't something to scoff at.
Menma also knew that she wasn't planning on letting him modify this Jutsu without telling her his plan. But, he wasn't worried. Because without his mastery of Sealing Jutsu, it would impossible to train such Jutsu.
"Teacher, as a medical-nin, you already know that there is a limit to how Chakra our body can grow, right? Even with Strength of the Hundred Seals, you can only use the Chakra that your body generates."
"This might be enough to reach the Kage Level but if I want to reach the level that your grandfather reached, it would be impossible. The only person who can reach such a level would be Naruto and only if he masters Nine Tails Chakra."
"So, I plan to create such a Jutsu that uses the reverse application of Strength of the Hundred Seals while using the normal Strength of the Hundred Seals. This Jutsu would absorb the Chakra but not just from my body."
"But, from anything else. Then, disintegrate the Chakra into physical and spiritual energy. Once these two kinds of energies are formed, the seal will constantly release those energies into my body."
"This is the reverse of the Strength of the Hundred Seals. Instead of consuming my Chakra, it helps me grow my physical energy and spiritual energy at a rapid pace."
"But, at the same time, I am going to use Strength of the Hundred Seals to constantly absorb Chakra from my body. Then, release it. Absorb it and release it. This process will help me grow my Chakra Reserve at a rapid pace."
Hearing his words, Tsunade suddenly released her domineering Chakra and her eyes narrowed.
"Menma, do you know what you are talking about? Absorbing others' Chakra to increase your Chakra is an evil path. As my disciple, I will never let you do that."
Although the pressure of her Chakra was immense, Menma was still able to sit calmly. He looked at her and asked.
"Teacher, it might be rude to say this. But, good people are always the ones to die first."
