In Konoha, Attributes Double Daily!

"Teacher, what kind of ninjutsu is this? It looks like a ball," Han Guang asked.

Upon hearing the word "ball," Minato Namikaze almost lost control of the Rasengan.

"This isn't a ball, it's the ninjutsu I just developed—the Rasengan!"

"Rasengan? A spinning ball?"

"Ahem! This is a ninjutsu without hand seals or elemental affinity! I developed it specifically for you," Minato said seriously.

Huh?

Developed for him?

Han Guang felt touched.

But the problem was, he didn't need it at all.

"Do you know that developing an A-rank ninjutsu like this usually takes three to five years? I perfected it in less than a month."

Minato said this with a hint of pride.

"Less than a month?"

Han Guang rubbed his chin.

If he remembered correctly, Minato had been developing this technique for three years! How did it become less than a month?

"Teacher, you truly are a genius!" Han Guang flattered him.

"Actually, for this... I have to thank a cat."

After listening to his teacher's brief story about the cat, Han Guang finally understood.

Simply put, Minato had encountered a cat playing with a ball of yarn during a mission, and he had an epiphany.

He perfected the Rasengan in just two days.

"Here, observe the state of the Rasengan carefully and try to learn it." Minato brought the Rasengan closer to Han Guang and instructed.

"Teacher, I don't have any talent for ninjutsu..." Han Guang shook his head.

"How will you know if you can't learn it if you don't try? Besides, you can only learn this one ninjutsu, as there are no other non-elemental ninjutsu in the entire ninja world," Minato said with a serious expression.

Fine.

He'd try. Han Guang figured he wouldn't be able to learn it anyway.

"Remember four key points: rotation, compression, stabilization, and control!" Minato stated the essentials.

Han Guang nodded.

He extended his right hand and began to gather chakra in his palm.

Buzz!

Pure white chakra condensed, instantly forming a sphere of chakra.

Han Guang: "???"

Minato: "⊙?

At the same time!

Han Guang's status panel also changed.

Under the Ninjutsu section, the characters for Rasengan appeared.

Ninjutsu: [Rasengan]

Evolution Path Selection: (Volume) (Quality)

Looking at the options on his status panel, Han Guang's eyes suddenly narrowed.

Volume would likely lead to Rasengan—Great Ball Rasengan—Super ???

Representing the Rasengan getting bigger and bigger.

But what about Quality?

A terrifying guess formed in Han Guang's mind.

A black hole!

"If this guess is true, then this ninjutsu will have an incredibly high potential ceiling!"

Chapter 30: Hiruzen Sarutobi: I Was Tricked by Han Guang!

In the courtyard.

A pure white Rasengan hovered in Han Guang's palm, illuminating the entire courtyard.

This left Minato stunned.

"A genius?"

Probably not.

In Minato's opinion, if Han Guang were a genius, he wouldn't have gotten a score of 0 on the Three Body Technique and throwing techniques when he graduated from the Ninja Academy.

"Could it be because it's attribute-less?"

This was the only possibility he could think of.

Because Han Guang's chakra was inherently attribute-less, it resonated with the Rasengan?

"It seems even he is quite shocked."

Seeing the joy on Han Guang's face, Minato Namikaze could understand the student's feelings.

After all, for a complete dead last to suddenly learn an A-rank Ninjutsu, the feeling must be exhilarating.

Han Guang was indeed a little excited.

He abandoned the volume evolution of the Rasengan and chose the path of quality evolution.

Ninjutsu: Rasengan (A-rank) [Quality Evolution]

Having mastered this Ninjutsu, Han Guang heard Teacher Minato's advice.

"You must remember, you only know this one Ninjutsu, so it's best to save it for critical moments."

"I understand, Teacher."

Han Guang nodded in agreement.

He understood his teacher's meaning: hide his true strength!

On the surface, he appeared to be a Taijutsu user, but in reality, he could also use Ninjutsu.

"Although you mastered the Rasengan in one go, you still need to practice it more."

Early morning.

Crisp bird chirps echoed from the trees in the yard.

Han Guang rolled over and got out of bed, checking his status panel as usual.

Name: Han Guang
Age: 12
Strength: 456 [Super]
Constitution: 288 [Super]
Agility: 184 [Kage Level]
Spirit: 160 (80*2) [Advanced Immunity]
Chakra Amount: 1088
Skills: None
Ninjutsu: Rasengan (A-rank) [Quality Evolution]
Overall Strength Evaluation: Genin

"My Spirit attribute doubled today..."

Feeling a bit disappointed, Han Guang's gaze shifted downwards.

Then, he was speechless.

"The strength evaluation is no longer 'Rookie'? I've become a real Genin?"

"But... is this logical?"

He couldn't quite figure out the system's strength evaluation mechanism.

If he hadn't mastered the Rasengan before, then being a Genin was fine. But now that he had learned the Rasengan, why was his strength evaluation still a damn Genin?

"The lowest of my four core attributes is Kage Level! Does that match a Genin?"

After a brief grumble, he carefully re-examined the status panel.
