Storm Release was a huge chakra drain.
It was also a problem Hyuga Sho had yet to solve.
Once too much Storm Release was condensed, his chakra would be completely drained.
It was like wanting to eat white-flour mantou.
But there wasn't enough white flour.
So he had no choice but to mix in cornmeal and pumpkin flour.
Storm Release was the white flour.
Fire Release was the cornmeal.
Explosion Release was the pumpkin flour.
When Chakra hadn't transformed into Chakra, it was impossible to perform a 100% pure Storm Release ninjutsu.
It was a compromise.
Eighty percent Fire Release formed the base, nineteen percent Explosion Release amplified it, and one percent Storm Release shaped it.
Of course, the ratios were just an example.
With Storm Release added, the sphere between Hyuga Sho's fingers seemed to become gentler.
After all.
Compared to a fireball that rose and burned,
the orange-red sphere, whose surface was as still as flowing water, seemed much gentler.
But was it really... like that?
"Nova!"
Standing in the sky, Hyuga Sho gave a low growl.
His right arm swung hard.
He threw down the flaming sphere in his hand, which was like a newly risen morning sun.
As the fireball rapidly fell, it finally... touched the ground, then... exploded.
BOOM!!!
In an instant.
The fireball burst apart.
A thunderous roar rang out.
The heat formed from three immense energies erupted, creating a shocking explosion and shock wave.
Flames soared into the sky, directly swallowing more than a dozen trees.
A moment later...
The entire scene was reduced to charcoal.
A circular area ten meters in diameter had been utterly destroyed.
The trees were burned away, and the ground was blackened.
After the explosion rang out,
the people from the Torture Department looked in this direction.
Very
