Casually glancing at the recorded jutsus, Toshiro shook his head.
He nonchalantly tossed the scroll back into Orochimaru's hand.
He never expected that Uncle Snake would bring out such stuff.
Just look at the jutsus recorded above!
Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, Explosive Tag: Mutual Destruction, Water Release: Water Collision Wave...
None of these really live up to the reputation of the legendary three ninja!
You are supposed to be an expert with a lot of core technologies! Bringing out such 'common' goods is truly disappointing.
Although these jutsus are all at least B-rank, with some like the 'Explosive Tag: Mutual Destruction' shining brilliantly in the original work, none of them suit him.
Not to mention Multiple Shadow Clone, does Uchiha lack Fire Release techniques? Why would he need Water Release techniques?
Even the only one that caught his eye, 'Explosive Tag: Mutual Destruction,' is a self-destructive jutsu. He can't even perform the Edo Tensei to complement it, so what's the point?
Is he planning to end himself with the enemy?
Indeed, using the 'Explosive Tag: Mutual Destruction' without the complementary Edo Tensei technique is simply courting death.
This was a jutsu developed by the Second Hokage for Edo Tensei resurrected beings.
As for the remaining jutsus, they aren't that impressive either!
"Oh! It seems that Toshiro-kun is not very satisfied with the jutsus I brought..."
"Heh! Heh!"
Receiving the scroll back from Toshiro, Orochimaru squinted his eyes at Toshiro. At the same time, he extended his slimy, damp tongue and licked it!
With his unique voice, he let out a peculiar laugh.
As soon as he finished laughing, the surrounding air froze momentarily. Even the campfire before him seemed to dim, with the flames flickering uncertainly.
Danger!!!
A large drop of cold sweat dripped from the back of Toshiro's head.
[I'm just courting death here. This guy might not be as twisted as he becomes later, but he's not easy to deal with.]
Sweating nervously, Toshiro started inwardly complaining. He truly was reckless, bargaining with someone so clearly unstable, almost asking for death.
Although the other side might be merely trying to scare him, he did not dare to bet on this lunatic's actions.
"I just think Orochimaru-senpai hasn't fully recognized these two jutsus yet. Phoenix Sage Fire Technique needs no further explanation, but the Chidori has quite a few variations..."
For his life, Toshiro had to start self-rescue, hoping to shift Orochimaru's focus with the Chidori jutsu.
"Although many Uchiha clansmen have mastered the Chidori, its subsequent variations are less known. I believe Orochimaru-senpai hasn't seen them!"
Based on his knowledge from the past, the other side should be very interested in jutsus; his explanation should attract his attention.
As he predicted, Orochimaru curiously asked, "The Chidori has changes I don't know about? Interesting... In that case, show me. If it's as you say, I will provide you with a satisfactory jutsu."
After speaking, Orochimaru coldly stared at Toshiro with his serpentine eyes, waiting for his performance. It was clear that if the performance was unsatisfactory, he wouldn't mind swallowing Toshiro whole.
Szz! Szz! Szz!
With the application of the jutsu, Toshiro gathered a dense amount of lightning chakra in his hand, emitting blinding electric lights accompanied by piercing bird cries.
"This is the most basic form of this jutsu. I'm sure Orochimaru-senpai has seen it!"
Seeing no reaction from Orochimaru, Toshiro began manipulating the chakra in his hand, causing intense transformations.
"This is Chidori Senbon!"
As he swung his arm, several dozen thin needles made of lightning chakra shot towards an adjacent rock.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
With a series of piercing sounds, all the Chidori Senbon embedded into the rock, each penetrating over two inches deep.
It's easy to imagine the devastation these Senbon would cause if they hit a person.
"Next, here's another variation, this one's more defensive..."
Following that, Toshiro demonstrated the Chidori Nagashi for Orochimaru.
Finally, manipulating his chakra into a straight spear, he pierced straight through a rock about two to three meters tall. Toshiro's demonstration ended.
...
Through his performance, Toshiro displayed all the variations of Chidori he had learned from the original work, except the ultimate Lightning Release: Kirin.
It wasn't that he didn't understand the importance of secrecy or wasn't wary of his clan. Nor was it merely that Orochimaru's killing intent frightened him...
But through extensive learning, he discovered that whether it was Chidori Senbon or Chidori Sharp Spear, none were manageable without vast mental energy.
Even among the naturally strong-spirited Uchiha, not everyone could properly handle these jutsu variations.
Let alone those who weren't Uchiha!
Perhaps a few exceptionally talented individuals might learn it, but he believed such individuals were exceedingly rare.
Otherwise, Kakashi wouldn't have had to use that jutsu called Lightning Transmission in the original series.
Wasn't it because he couldn't control this jutsu alone?
As for Lightning Release: Kirin, there was no way he would demonstrate it to Orochimaru.
Moreover, he hadn't figured it out yet!
Unless Orochimaru offered the Flying Thunder God Technique upfront, he would never reveal this jutsu.
He hadn't even told his clan, let alone Orochimaru and the people behind him.
Using common sense, it's clear that this 'Shadow of the Shinobi World' must be involved in this affair.
