"Hey, Uchiha Sasuke, are you giving up already?" Seeing that Uchiha Sasuke was preparing to leave, Naruto wore a look of disdain. After all, he had just sworn in his heart that he would treat Uchiha Sasuke as his lifelong rival!

As a result, Uchiha Sasuke giving up so quickly really made Naruto feel that the rival he had chosen wasn't all that great.,-' ^ '~-.,,.-~ ~-.,,.-~' ^ '-, If Uchiha Sasuke knew what Naruto was thinking, he would definitely laugh out loud. Judging from their recent exchange, Uchiha Sasuke was certain that if he went all out, he wouldn't just be on par with Kakashi; the result would likely be nine-to-one, with Uchiha Sasuke at nine and Kakashi at one!

And that was without counting the Rasengan he had just learned. If he added the Rasengan, Uchiha Sasuke believed that the Flying Thunder God combined with the Rasengan should be enough to take Kakashi down directly—provided, of course, that Kakashi didn't use the Mangekyō Sharingan's ability, Kamui.

Obito's eye ability was somewhat broken, and Uchiha Sasuke couldn't guarantee he could avoid it one hundred percent. However, it seemed that the current Kakashi shouldn't be able to use the Mangekyō's power yet! Probably!

"Giving up? Watch closely, this is what talent is!" Facing Naruto's skepticism, Uchiha Sasuke turned his head and shot Naruto a look of disdain, then slowly began to churn out a Rasengan in his right hand!

What made Naruto feel the pressure was Uchiha Sasuke's astonishing talent. He hadn't even managed to gather Chakra in his palm yet, and here Uchiha Sasuke had already completely mastered the Rasengan. This gave Naruto a sense of powerlessness; was he really qualified to be Uchiha Sasuke's rival?

It wasn't just Naruto; even Sakura, who had been training hard on the side, felt a bit of doubt about whether she could truly become a ninja after seeing the Rasengan in Uchiha Sasuke's hand.

Of course, equally stunned were the people in the Hokage's office: Kakashi, Asuma, and Kurenai. The three of them had come to report on the new graduates passing the assessment, and because Kakashi had been full of praise for Uchiha Sasuke, Sarutobi Hiruzen, as the Hokage, also wanted to see the training progress of Team 7.

Then, everyone witnessed an unbelievable scene. The moment they saw the Rasengan in Uchiha Sasuke's hand, they were all in disbelief. Was this really a new graduate? Although they had heard that Uchiha Sasuke had astonishing talent, this was no longer just talent! This was a monster!

"Truly unbelievable!" Watching the Rasengan in Uchiha Sasuke's hand, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, though he didn't take it to heart, as Uchiha Sasuke had already been brainwashed by the Will of Fire.

"Remember to treat us!" Kurenai, looking at Kakashi who hadn't yet recovered from his shock, couldn't help but exclaim as well before leaving. She also had to go train her own team; it would be embarrassing to be left too far behind!

"Alright!" Hearing Kurenai's teasing, Kakashi finally nodded helplessly. How was he supposed to guide Uchiha Sasuke now? It was tricky; having a student with such terrifying talent was also a headache-inducing problem!

"The road ahead is long and arduous! Kakashi, this genius is now in your hands!" With one final tease for Kakashi, Sarutobi Hiruzen cut off the surveillance of Team 7.

"This is my duty. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave!" After some pleasantries, Kakashi left the Hokage's office.

"What terrifying talent! Uchiha Sasuke, if he awakens the Sharingan, I reckon he'll be able to surpass me very soon!"

Walking out of the office, Kakashi muttered to himself while looking into the distance, then pulled out his Icha Icha Paradise and began reading it with great interest. With Uchiha Sasuke's intelligence, he would surely slowly integrate Nature Transformation into the Rasengan. Thinking this, Kakashi sauntered home.

After Kakashi left, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the portrait of Namikaze Minato in the Hokage's office with a strange expression. The Flying Thunder God combined with the Rasengan—wasn't that Minato's signature style?

"Minato, your will has a successor!" With a soft sigh, Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his crystal ball again, though this time it wasn't to check on Team 7.

At the training ground, after Uchiha Sasuke finished demonstrating the Rasengan to the two of them, he left behind some final words and then departed.

"The essence of this ninjutsu lies in the Shape Transformation and control of Chakra. Keep working hard, you two."

Listening to Uchiha Sasuke's words, Sakura lowered her head and began to think slowly, while Naruto was completely bewildered. What was he talking about? Why couldn't he understand a word of it?

After returning home, Uchiha Sasuke summoned his Rasengan again and began to think slowly. The Wind Style: Rasenshuriken was impossible for now; if he managed to inject Nature Transformation into the Rasengan so quickly, Sarutobi Hiruzen would likely be unable to sit still.

"Big Ball Rasengan? Uh... my Chakra is the bottleneck, so forget it!" Recalling the Rasengan that Naruto developed further in the original story, Uchiha Sasuke gave up. After all, he currently only had Chakra, not "Chakra-tons," so he shouldn't take the route of winning purely through the sheer volume of Chakra.

Continuing to examine the Rasengan in his hand, Uchiha Sasuke discovered that the Chakra vortex within his Rasengan was spinning to the left, which gave him an idea.

Withdrawing the Rasengan, Uchiha Sasuke continued to mobilize the Chakra in his body, only this time, he wanted the Chakra to spin to the right.

Because Uchiha Sasuke had completely maxed out his proficiency with the Rasengan, this right-spinning Rasengan didn't take too long to master.

A Rasengan with a hint of green slowly appeared before Uchiha Sasuke. Looking at the color, Uchiha Sasuke felt a bit awkward—why did it have to be the "forgiveness" color!

[Rasengan (Right): A-Rank, 50/800]

[Rasengan (Left): A-Rank, 800/800]

Just as Uchiha Sasuke was still wondering why it was green, a new general ninjutsu appeared directly before him.

"Holy crap! You can play it like this?" Looking at the panel, Uchiha Sasuke felt a bit excited. Was this what they called "effortless success"?

The left and right Rasengans were actually recognized by the system as two separate ninjutsus. Wasn't that a huge profit?

One had to know that Rasengans with the same nature could undergo a qualitative change! That was the Taiji Rasengan from the movie, which was called the strongest Rasengan by the Fourth Hokage!

Extraordinary talent shocks everyone, with a Rasengan in each hand.
