Chapter 66 - Chapter 66: New Ninja Technique – Thunder Body Flicker

Kakashi watched the fading lightning in the air.

He swallowed lightly.

Sasuke had just covered a distance of several meters in the blink of an eye.

Now perched on a tree branch, Sasuke still had traces of lightning crackling around him.

Sasuke slowly turned his head and glanced at Kakashi.

At that moment, Kakashi couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

The combination of Body Flicker and Lightning Style!

This was something Kakashi had thought about before, but developing a new technique was incredibly difficult.

Yet Sasuke... was a complete anomaly. He had just learned Body Flicker and was already thinking about combining it with Lightning Style.

And it seemed like he had already succeeded on the first try.

"No, this isn't true Lightning Body Flicker!"

At that moment, Sasuke shook his head, clearly dissatisfied.

Kakashi nearly wanted to spit blood. What do you mean, not good enough?

The technique had already been successfully integrated. While the speed boost wasn't huge, the success was undeniable. When Sasuke used Body Flicker, he had indeed unleashed Lightning Style chakra.

"Sasuke! Developing a new technique shouldn't be rushed. You've already succeeded in adding Lightning Style chakra to your Body Flicker technique. Take it slow, in time you'll..."

"No, no, no!" Sasuke jumped down from the tree, still thinking deeply as he spoke.

"What I just did was simply adding my other technique, Lightning Style ~ Electrocution, while performing Body Flicker!"

"Strictly speaking, it wasn't really simultaneous... more like releasing both techniques one after the other!"

"That's not developing a new technique!"

If that was the case, then yes, it couldn't be considered the development of a completely new technique.

But Kakashi still thought it was impressive.

By layering another Lightning Style technique on top of Body Flicker, even if it wasn't an entirely new technique, it was still a novel usage.

Sasuke was already outstanding.

In fact, he was far beyond outstanding.

Who could learn a new technique and already use it so proficiently?

Sasuke had mastered Body Flicker so easily that it was almost making Kakashi want to cough up blood.

Yet, this kid was still not satisfied!

"No! This is not what I want!"

Sasuke began to recall the sensation from earlier.

Lightning Style ~ Electrocution was a technique that didn't require hand seals.

In that moment, he had struck Lightning Style chakra into his feet, and just as he used Body Flicker, it erupted again.

But what if he replaced the chakra gathering in his feet for Body Flicker with Lightning Style chakra instead?

With this thought in mind, Sasuke immediately raised his head.

He began forming hand seals again, a simple Rat seal. Instantly, chakra began to gather.

As the chakra flowed through his body, Sasuke directly controlled it to produce the properties of Lightning.

In simple terms, he was converting the chakra used for Body Flicker into Lightning chakra.

The next moment, the chakra gathered.

Crackle… boom…

In an instant, Sasuke's body shot forward like a thunderbolt, accompanied by a terrifying crash, racing toward the distance.

A massive lightning serpent flashed through the air,

and then slowly vanished,

while Sasuke appeared on the other side.

Lightning crackled around him.

This time!

The speed had increased explosively.

Kakashi watched Sasuke's back.

He was done for!

This time, Kakashi was truly impressed.

"This isn't just the combined use of two techniques, is it?"

A smile appeared on Sasuke's face.

It really worked!

[Congratulations, host, for successfully developing a Lightning Style technique.]

[Please name the technique.]

The system recognized Sasuke's technique.

This time, it was a true success.

Let's call it Lightning Style ~ Thunder Body Flicker!

[Lightning Style ~ Thunder Body Flicker (Beginner)]

Sasuke closed his eyes.

He raised his hand and performed the technique once more.

Thunder Body Flicker!

Crack!

Another massive lightning serpent flashed across the air.

A strange, irregular arc cut through the air.

Sasuke appeared right beside Kakashi.

Accompanied by the crackling sound of electricity, Sasuke materialized in front of Kakashi.

Kakashi stared at Sasuke, who was surrounded by lightning.

"You... this speed... it's so much faster than Body Flicker!"

The speed had indeed increased drastically.

But!

Sasuke still seemed somewhat dissatisfied as he spoke: "Unfortunately, the sound of this technique is too loud. It can't be done silently."

Hearing this, Kakashi was speechless.

He wanted speed, but at the same time, he expected the technique to be silent.

Sasuke's demands were way too high. A technique that was already several times faster than Body Flicker was terrifying enough.

Even if the noise was a bit loud, the fact was, even if the enemy heard it, they wouldn't necessarily be able to react in time.

This flaw was something that could be accepted.

After all, at that speed, Sasuke would already be there the moment the lightning appeared.

In that case, who would even care about the noise?

"No, I need to try again and see if I can reduce the sound!"

Kakashi didn't want to say anything anymore.

If he stayed with this genius any longer, he might lose all his confidence.

"Ahem!"

"Sasuke, you can keep practicing here. I won't disturb you."

"Just be prepared. The Chūnin Exams will be starting soon!"

"I hope you'll do well!"

Saying that, Kakashi vanished, and even his departure was faster than his arrival.

'I never want to talk to a genius like this again.'

As Kakashi left, that was the only thought running through his mind.

Meanwhile, Sasuke furrowed his brows, deep in thought.

The Chūnin Exams!

At the same time, this exam was also known as the Konoha Collapse Plan.

The great chaos of Konoha!

Suddenly, Sasuke came up with an idea.

Ever since Sasuke received the talent reward from the system, he had been eager to learn more and stronger ninjutsu.

It would be even better if he could learn forbidden techniques.

Such great talent shouldn't be wasted by not learning more powerful techniques.

With this thought in mind, Sasuke had kept the sealing scroll in his mind.

If he had a chance to peek at the sealing scroll, he wouldn't miss it!

And this upcoming Chūnin Exam seemed like the perfect opportunity!

Sasuke intended to learn every single technique on the scroll, leaving none behind. That way... he would be that much closer to becoming the God of Ninjas!
