"Understood." Ronglin nodded.
"Then how can I sense Natural Energy?"
Katsuyu transformed himself into an all-knowing professor, explaining all sorts of principles with perfect logic and without any obscurity, making them easy to understand at a glance.
Of course, that depended on the person. If Naruto had been sitting here instead, he would probably only have been able to clutch his head in confusion, with several huge question marks floating above it.
To refine Sage Chakra, sensing and absorbing Natural Energy was the most crucial step.
On the contrary, maintaining balance during the fusion process was the easiest step. Since one dared to come here to learn, their chakra control and ability to maintain balance certainly would not be lacking.
