Kenjiro was slightly excited.
"This Muji Ninjutsu uses form manipulation to its ultimate level. It's powerful and quick to activate, perfect for high-speed ninjas."
It just so happened that Kenjiro knew Hirito was incredibly fast.
In terms of pure speed, even some ordinary Jōnin might not match Hirito.
"Uncle, I want to offer this ninjutsu to the clan. What rank do you think it should be?"
"Offer it to the clan?"
Kenjiro looked at Hirito quietly before speaking after a moment.
"...You sly kid, what are you trying to gain this time?"
Hirito smiled. "Uncle, I'd like to access the clan's library."
The school's library no longer had anything that could help Hirito. Naturally, his next target was the Hyuga clan's vast archive.
He believed that, with the clan's long history, the knowledge they had collected would certainly be beneficial to him.
Silence.
Complete silence.
After a while, Kenjiro said, "I can't make that decision alone. You'll need the approval of the head of the main family and the elders."
Though Hyuga Kenjiro was powerful, strength alone didn't grant authority over such matters. The keys to the clan's library rested with the main family.
"Is that so..."
Hirito didn't have much direct contact with the main family beyond Hyuga Hiashi and Hirika. He wasn't familiar with the temperament of the clan elders.
But... Hirito glanced at Kenjiro.
Even if he didn't know, his uncle surely did.
"Uncle, do you think that if I submit this ninjutsu, it could earn me a chance to enter the library?"
What he was really asking was whether the clan would grant preferential treatment to geniuses.
Kenjiro thought for a while. "First, let me determine the rank of this Muji Ninjutsu."
"Have you named this ninjutsu yet?"
"Rasengan," Hirito replied confidently. "I call it Rasengan."
Kenjiro decided to test it himself, quickly forming the Chakra ball with ease. However, when he struck the ground with it, it only left a mark the size of a plate. Based on his own control, Kenjiro estimated that it would take him about a week to fully master this Muji Ninjutsu.
But that was him, an Elite Jōnin.
With his level of skill, he would need a week to master it. What about those less adept at controlling Chakra?
A-rank ninjutsu!
After several experiments, Kenjiro concluded that this [Rasengan] was an A-rank technique.
"The principle is simple..."
"You compress Chakra, allowing it to rotate chaotically while maintaining a basic form..."
"Then, when you attack, you release the control, letting the Chakra explode upon impact..."
"But the difficulty lies in the Chakra control..."
Knowing the principle didn't mean one could execute it. Chakra control varies widely among individuals, meaning that talent and natural ability play a crucial role.
And then, a thought occurred to Kenjiro.
Doesn't this mean Hirito's control over Chakra surpasses his own?
Is this just raw talent? Or has Hirito undergone some special training?
This technique represented the pinnacle of Chakra form transformation. The level of control required exceeded what most people could achieve. The difficulty made this an A-rank ninjutsu.
A-rank ninjutsu was a Grandmaster-level technique, something only Jōnin or Kage-level ninja could typically use.
And purely in terms of destructive power, [Rasengan] was on par with the clan's [Eight Trigrams-Sky Palm].
"Did you really create this ninjutsu based on [Revolving Heaven]?"
Even though Kenjiro knew Hirito was a genius, it was still hard to believe.
There were different kinds of genius.
Some were physically gifted at a young age but lacked the creativity to innovate. But Hirito? He wasn't just improving existing techniques like [Shunpo]—he was creating entirely new, A-rank ninjutsu.
This was the mark of a creative genius!
Hirito smiled and asked, "Uncle, have you ever seen anything like this ninjutsu before?"
Kenjiro shook his head. "No. If someone had developed a Muji Ninjutsu of this caliber, we would have known."
"An A-rank ninjutsu might not be enough to convince the clan..."
"But if an eight-year-old child develops it, that's an entirely different matter..."
Geniuses play an invaluable role in the survival and advancement of a clan.
"Moreover, this [Rasengan] is currently just the ultimate form of Chakra manipulation. If you add Chakra's Nature Transformation to it, the power would increase exponentially..."
Kenjiro, with his vast experience, could already envision the future development of the [Rasengan].
He was filled with excitement.
What was this? The perfect precursor to S-rank ninjutsu!
"An A-rank Muji Ninjutsu with the potential to evolve into an S-rank technique..."
"Hirito, you've really created something extraordinary...!"
S-rank ninjutsu was a treasure for any village or clan.
The Hyuga clan was no exception. Although Kenjiro was still proud of the Gentle Fist style, he wasn't foolish enough to turn down a future S-rank ninjutsu.
Hirito smiled gently but said nothing.
