BOOOOM!!!

It sounded as if the entire world was shaking.

A large mountain was crushed into pieces as countless broken rocks flew into the air, creating clouds of dust obscuring everything.

Suddenly, with a shout, a figure broke out from the dust clouds. This figure was emitting a dazzling light like thunder and lightning on a stormy night, His tremendous speed produced a long streak of dust trailing him.

This figure was Shun

It's been seven years since then. A lot of things have happened since then, both good and bad incidents.

I'm currently sixteen years old together with Indra and Ashura.

Indra has gone cold with the way he treats us. But I still behave like I don't care about that and still behave the same way as I have always done.

Everyone already has hopes that he will be the heir of Hagoromo, and honestly speaking, if I don't know better, I would have thought the same too.

Indra's eye has also reached three tomoe Sharingan for quite some time now and he flaunts it everywhere you see him. His chakra capacity has also increased tremendously from what I've sensed. He's probably the person with the highest amount of chakra after Hagoromo and me.

From the looks of things, Zetsu didn't tell him that he could use his Sharingan for illusions, cause he doesn't use it.

Ashura on the other hand still doesn't care about all of that. He's still the same carefree and caring person he's always been. In terms of chakra capacity, he doesn't come close to Indra at all though his vitality is still top notch.

He has also learned how to perform medical ninjutsu, although he doesn't have extensive knowledge of the body, his chakra does the work by activating the dying cells in an injured or infected area and speeds up the healing process.

It's good but not as good as mine though. I use chakra to map out my body's circulatory system, veins, and organs down to the bones. Now I can confidently say that I could perform any known surgery on any human being.

These past seven years have been both hectic and rewarding in more ways than one.

All my training paid off tremendously and I can confidently say that except for Hagoromo and Hamura, I am the current strongest being in existence. Yes, you heard right, The Strongest.

If I were to estimate my chakra level right now, I'd say it's around one-fifth of the total amount of chakra Hagoromo possesses.

One might ask how I am sure of this, well, I'll recap my experiences over seven years ago

In the first year, I had progressive results in all my elemental training. All five elements are related, so I stopped thinking of them individually and started approaching them in ways they will help each other.

Let me start from the element that I was most familiar with, Lightning.

I had a target I wanted to reach in my manipulation of lighting. 'Enel' from 'One Piece.'

With this target in mind, I set out to create techniques that will cover up my attacking, defensive and supportive aspects of lightning.

The first technique I created was [Lighting Armor]. Different from the [Lightning Cloak] of the 3rd and 4th Raikages, this technique took inspiration from 'Luck' in the anime, Black Clover.

I made the lightning and full body armor only leaving certain parts of my body exposed to aid in movement.

The other technique created was [Lightning Domain]. It is an electromagnetic field created around me for 100 meters. Anything or anybody inside this field can never hide from my senses and I am God inside this field.

This is one of the techniques I took inspiration from Enel to create. Enel could watch a whole country with his [Observation Haki]. With his Rumble Rumble fruit added to the mix, it boosted his senses.

At first, when I created this technique, I could barely sense 10 meters around me for 30 minutes due to my low amount of chakra. Currently, though, I could cover 1 kilometer around me should I use this technique actively for 1 hour.

The last major technique was [Godspeed]. This technique needs both the first and second techniques to work. With the [Lightning Armor] and [Lighting Domain] activated, I could move at the speed of lightning.

The principle behind how it works is quite simple. As far as I am aware of something or someone in my domain, I only need a thought to appear at that spot.

Even without the [Lightning Armor] and [Lighting Domain], wherever a lightning bolt with a trace of my chakra is, I could appear there.

It is almost a teleportation technique, but we will see about that.

One other technique I created was [LightningSpear] alongside [Lightning Blade], they were just the [Raikiri] with the lightning extended to form a katana or a spear. They both had quite destructive and penetrative power.

Other than that, I also attempted combining Yin chakra and lightning to see the result. It was both a satisfying and horrifying experience.

The destruction it caused was tenfold the normal lightning but at the same time the damage it caused to my body was horrifying and I didn't want to experience that again. I decided to call it [Black Lightning].

I also attempted to combine it with my Yang chakra. Except for the color change, the temperature increased a lot. The good news was that it was more controllable than the [Black Lightning], but it still caused me pain.

I haven't reached the stage where I can create lightning from the sky, so both these techniques were harmful to my body as of then, prompting me to drop them.

Presently though, I could attempt them, after all my body has been further refined and tempered by natural energy.

Earth's nature transformation was the next easier element. The techniques that could be created from this element were numerous so I only focused on what only I could do.

With that thought in mind, I created four major techniques. [Rock Armor] similar to the one Toph used on Aang, [Seismic Sensing], [Earth Domain], and [Gravity Manipulation]

All these techniques are explanatory. Gravity manipulation is my favorite technique as of yet though I Wouldn't say it is pure gravity, it's more like pressure magic.

It is enhanced by the [Earth Domain]. Similar to [Lightning Domain], the area where my chakra is poured can be manipulated at will to create any kind of known earth ninjutsu.

In the domain, I could make them heavier or lighter. I could also fly similar to the 3rd Tsuchikage jutsu for flying. I don't like it though, It is slow compared to my anti-gravity seal combined with air manipulation.

In short, the earth's nature transformation was easier to complete.

Air, though easy, was also difficult to train. I knew its principles, I knew how Naruto trained it, and I also knew how it was explained in ATLA. I also knew how it is trained in other magical anime series but it still took me time to grasp it.

After a few months of trying to do the same thing I did with earth, pouring my chakra into the air, I succeeded later on though when I changed my approach.

The process was nerve-wracking, but I later succeeded. I also created a domain ability with it. It was also maintained by my chakra and the maximum area it could cover was 1 kilometer. With this, I could also maximize the anti-gravity seal and fly at sonic speed.

No notable technique was created with this element as I saw no need for it. Air m can be manipulated as I see fit, I could make it as weak as a cool breeze and as deadly as a hurricane with a sharp wind.

The same could be said for water nature transformation. I developed it to the point where I no longer need a water body to maximize its potential.

I could directly form water out of the particles of water in the air, and with a little mixture of air, I could make ice and cold breeze depending on the ratio used.

I used science in that situation, so don't mind me.

I also used science when it came to fire nature transformation. The normal way to use fire ninjutsu is to first coat your lungs with chakra to avoid injuring yourself, convert the chakra into fire, and then spit it out.

The more chakra used the more the quantity of fire is expelled. The quality of your chakra also plays a vital role in how hot the flame would be.

Knowing that fire burns with the help of oxygen or air in general, I mixed in a little amount of air to make the fire burn hotter. It was similar to [Scorch Release] so I developed on that.

I didn't manage to create any notable ability with this element but I could sense the heat in a certain area. With all five elements sensing abilities and my spirit sense in the mix I developed a passive sense of 1 kilometer and when active, it could sense a whole 10 kilometers.

Not to mention that I have only unblocked one of my spiritual chakra gates if I should unblock them all, combined with the passive sensing ability Yin and Yang release will give, coupled with my sage body, I could develop a [Universal Detect] skill.

That was what I thought and I have been working towards it as it would make me nigh omniscient.

//////////////

A/N: MC is going to be overpowered as hell, His only major fight will be against Indra and Ashura after which I will intentionally lose the fight to allow Ashura to awaken his Six Path mode.

I watched the arc again to get the idea of what happened to make Ashura as strong as Indra and it turned out that Hagoromo gave Ashura his six-path senjutsu ahead of time.
