Chapter 137 - Chapter 137 : Practicing the Flying Thunder God Technique!!

"Genya-sama, does the Yin Seal mark have to be on the forehead?"

Senju Hikari frowned slightly. The technique of the Yin Seal would leave a crystalline mark on the forehead once practiced, making it extremely noticeable.

"Can this Yin Seal mark be hidden?" Genya frowned as well. If it couldn't be concealed, they'd have to resort to wearing a headband or something similar. If they were ninja, they could just use a forehead protector.

"I'm not sure," Hikari replied. "For now, we can't control the Yin Seal mark." 

She was naturally talented and had already started forming the seal after practicing for only a short while.

"Then just cover it up when you go out for now. Once you can control it, you can hide it." Genya muttered quietly.

In his mind, he remembered Tsunade, whose Yin Seal mark was always visible, and Sakura Haruno, whose mark only appeared during battles. This suggested that the Yin Seal mark could likely be both visible and hidden depending on skill.

However, at their current level, neither of them could control it yet. It seemed they'd have to wait until they became more proficient.

"Genya-sama, this Creation Rebirth technique is way too difficult!"

Hayashi had given up on the Yin Seal for now and moved on to studying the next jutsu: Creation Rebirth. But this technique was even harder to master than the Yin Seal.

As for the Hundred Healings technique that followed, it had some similarities to the Eight Gates. Hayashi found it interesting, but since activating the Hundred Healings required a massive amount of chakra, he'd have to learn the Yin Seal first.

These techniques formed a chain, with each one being essential for the next.

Meanwhile, Genya was committing two other techniques to memory: Spirit Transformation and Flying Thunder God. These techniques would be vital in the future. He needed to learn not only the Flying Thunder God but also how to leave its marks effectively.

After seeing that both Hayashi and Hikari had also recorded the jutsu, Genya stored the entire scroll of forbidden techniques in another hidden chamber.

That chamber only had two keys—one for him and the other for his father. Such important techniques were safer sealed away.

After leaving, Genya devoted himself to practicing Spirit Transformation and Flying Thunder God. Despite his exceptional talent, these jutsu were extremely challenging. For an entire month, he made almost no progress.

However, it wasn't a complete loss.

He managed to engrave unstable Flying Thunder God marks, though none of them were accurate due to his lack of chakra control.

Each time he failed, he used Black Flame to erase the flawed marks and started over.

Logically, the marks of the Flying Thunder God technique cannot be erased. However, under his Black Flame, they are gradually absorbed and dissolved, leaving no trace behind.

This made him even more curious about his Black Flame.

The Black Flame was truly amazing!

With its ability to erase marks, Genya had been casually branding Flying Thunder God marks all over his home.

But...

Each time, the Flying Thunder God marks were chaotic and disorganized. He couldn't create a proper mark!

It required extreme precision in controlling both chakra and mental energy.

And that was just the first step. Once he could consistently form the marks quickly, he could begin to sense the space around him.

First, he needed to feel the Flying Thunder God mark. Then, he had to sense spatial fluctuations.

Only then could he achieve spatial teleportation!

But right now, Genya hadn't even mastered the first step of the Flying Thunder God technique.

Even if he succeeded in training, to reach the level of the Fourth Hokage—who could perform rapid spatial jumps—would still require endless practice.

There was no shortcut.

Otherwise, the Flying Thunder God technique wouldn't be so difficult to master.

The Fourth Hokage succeeded because of his incredible talent in ninjutsu!

While practicing the Flying Thunder God technique, Genya also trained in the Spirit Transformation technique.

It was a method to strengthen the soul!

The Spirit Transformation technique demanded immense mental energy and required a specialized method to perform.

The most important aspect was to refine one's mental energy!

Now, Genya had grasped some of its principles. He believed that within a year, he could continuously enhance his strength through the Spirit Transformation technique.

Once he mastered it, his clones' mental energy would also grow stronger.

If he could find a way for his clones to train and enhance their mental energy too, he would essentially become an unstoppable war machine!

At that point, he would have to modify his Shadow Clone Jutsu.

When he could finally master the Super Spirit Shadow Clone Jutsu, it would revolutionize his training!

For now, though, his focus was on improving his mental energy and mastering the Spirit Transformation technique.

He believed that, although this forbidden technique was already advanced, there was still room for improvement.

Just as Genya was seriously training, Uchiha Shin and Uchiha Kinya walked into the room!

Uchiha Shin, in particular, looked excited. As soon as he entered, he couldn't wait to confront Genya.

"Genya, you've kept this from me for so long! I heard you copied all the jutsu from the Konoha's Scroll of Seals. Why didn't you tell me?"

Shin had recently become extremely focused on gaining power. However, since his body was still adapting to new cells, he thought about learning some powerful jutsu to improve his abilities.

Genya was speechless. He glanced at his father, realizing that his secret must have spilled the beans. His father must have told Uchiha Shin about it!

"Uncle Shin, which jutsu do you want to learn?" Genya sighed. He couldn't deny Shin anything—Shin was one of his strongest supporters and always had his back.

But...

Genya wasn't sure which forbidden jutsu would suit Shin best.

"I heard the Fourth Hokage's signature move, the Flying Thunder God Technique, is in the Scroll of Seals. Can I learn it?" Shin asked, looking at Genya with hopeful eyes.

Back in his time, the Fourth Hokage was at the peak of fame. Namikaze Minato earned the title "Yellow Flash" with the Flying Thunder God Technique, gaining unparalleled glory in the Third Great Ninja War.

At that time, Shin was just a Chūnin.

He had always lived in the shadow of that lightning-fast "Yellow Flash."

Because of this...

Shin had dreamed of mastering the Flying Thunder God Technique for a long time. He even fantasized about using it to dominate the ninja world.

Genya couldn't help but roll his eyes. He looked at Shin and asked, "Uncle Shin, how would you compare your talent to the Fourth Hokage's?"

"Uh... I mean, I'm considered a genius of the Uchiha Clan, but I'm not quite on the same level as Namikaze Minato," Shin admitted honestly. "He stood out as an ordinary ninja with no bloodline limits even among ninja clans. That already proves his extraordinary strength and talent!"

Shin spoke sincerely. In the ninja world, every major clan had its own signature techniques or kekkei genkai.

For an ordinary ninja to surpass the geniuses of these clans? That spoke volumes about Namikaze Minato's abilities.

Because of that, Shin had always admired him.

At the same time, though, he felt some resentment. He believed Minato's success was largely due to mastering the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Genya noticed the trace of defiance in Shin's expression and asked another question, "Then why do you think no one after Namikaze Minato has successfully mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique?"
