Storm Cloud Tornado

The Great Elder rubbed his face.

Damn... It was a little hot.

But this feeling of showing off... felt amazing!

The Scarred Man's eyes were filled with shock. He stood there for a long moment, unable to react. "That's incredible! He's an absolute monster!"

"And... Keigo can actually perform ninjutsu without hand seals? How is that possible?"

"How did he do it?"

The other shinobi were dumbfounded too.

Their eyes were filled with excitement and astonishment.

"I heard that only the First could perform ninjutsu without hand seals. He could clap his hands and summon whatever he wanted. Keigo did it too! What's the secret?"

"If all of us in the Uchiha Clan could do that, wouldn't we become even stronger?"

"If we can perform ninjutsu without hand seals, our enemies will have no choice but to run when they face us!"

Everyone was stunned!

Seven hand seals in one second had been enough to shock them.

But performing ninjutsu without hand seals was on an entirely different level. They could only worship the ability.

They looked at Keigo with reverence, as if... they were looking at the future clan leader of the Uchiha Clan!

Meanwhile, Uchiha Keigo, standing in the training ground, hadn't noticed any of this. He was deep in thought. "Thunder Water Pillar can serve as a powerful attack, but I need some more conventional attacks too."

Uchiha Keigo's eyes flickered.

Different techniques could serve different purposes.

"Then for my second one, I'll go with something more common."

Under everyone's eager gaze,

he suddenly clapped his hands.

"Storm Release: Storm Dragon Technique!"

In an instant,

a huge, fearsome dragon slowly emerged from the ground. Thunder and water swirled around each other, flashing with terrifying light and sending a chill through everyone who saw it!

It was a technique similar to Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet.

The only difference was that he'd changed Water Release to Storm Release!

It consumed about the same amount of chakra, but its power was several times greater than that of Water Dragon Bullet.

The Storm Dragon roared fiercely and charged toward the lake. In an instant, towering waves surged!

The entire lake's surface suddenly sank as thunder raged!

It was as if a terrifying dragon-shaped creature had plunged into the water!

Storm Release had the properties of Water Release. After entering the water, the dragon became even more powerful. The Storm Dragon, originally six or seven meters long, grew to several dozen meters in an instant. It was fearsome and terrifying!

It blotted out the sky!

In the water, it was the true ruler!

"In its ordinary form, I can make it about six or seven meters long right now. But if I can draw on a water source, I can bring out the Storm Dragon's full power. In theory... it could grow without limit! And if there are thunderclouds, I could also draw on them to boost its power, just like Sasuke's Kirin."

Uchiha Keigo's breathing grew ragged. He bent forward slightly as the chakra in his body ran out!

"Of course, chances like that are hard to come by."

His body trembled.

The Storm Dragon vanished from the air in an instant.

The several-dozen-meter-long dragon turned to water, which all fell back into the lake. The surface gradually settled.

The elite shinobi's heartbeats settled along with it.

This talent... was terrifying!

Even with a source of fire beside them, none of them could make an ordinary Fire Style: Fire Dragon Bullet Technique reach such a terrifying scale!

"My Fire Style: Fire Dragon Bullet Technique can reach more than ten meters, but even beside a source of fire, I can only enlarge it to a little over twenty meters!"

A shinobi stared in shock.

He could hardly believe it!

"Because Keigo's chakra is limited and he still has other techniques to perform, his Storm Dragon only reached six or seven meters. It wasn't very large, but it still proves that he can control his chakra precisely and freely adjust the dragon's size!"

The shinobi's voice trembled with awe.

"But once it came into contact with the water, it grew to several dozen meters—over thirty meters! That means... Keigo's control over chakra and ninjutsu is even better than mine!"

He couldn't help swallowing.

And Keigo was only eight years old.

If he grew a few more years,

who in all of Konoha could stand against him?

Everyone nodded. They'd realized the same thing. Keigo's control over chakra and ninjutsu was so terrifying that they couldn't even measure it!

In that regard, they had no choice but to admit they were inferior!

"Keigo's talent and dedication leave us all in the dust!"

The Scarred Man fell silent for a moment, then spoke.

He'd worked hard enough when he was young.

But compared to Uchiha Keigo, he'd clearly spent his youth just playing around!

On the training ground,

Uchiha Keigo was breathing hard.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, ate a soldier pill, and began replenishing the chakra he'd completely used up.

Everyone waited patiently.

Not a hint of impatience showed.

A full two hours later,

he finally stood up again.

"Two hours is enough to fully replenish my chakra. Now that I have offensive techniques, I need some defensive ones too!"

He considered how he could use Storm Release for defense.

Soon, his eyes lit up.

"Rotation, known as Absolute Defense, would be a great option!"

"Rotation, a technique of the Hyuga Clan, requires Byakugan. It sends chakra gushing out from the body's various chakra points, creating an absolute defense of chakra."

"Ordinary people without Byakugan can't use Rotation. But... I have the 'Absolute Control' talent. To me, every chakra point in my body is just like my hands. There's no difference!"

His breathing grew ragged.

If he could really develop an ability like that,

then combining Storm Release with chakra defense

would make it far more powerful than Rotation!

"Storm Release: Storm Cloud Tornado!"

Uchiha Keigo clapped his hands and shouted.

In an instant,

thanks to his 'Absolute Control' talent, countless streams of chakra poured rapidly and evenly out of the chakra points in his body.

In a flash,

a waterspout formed around him!

It rose a full three or four meters!

And he still hadn't even released all his chakra!

The waterspout encircled him, completely surrounding him. It spun at a terrifying speed, faster and faster. Thunder spread across it, while the Water Release filled it with a terrifying cutting force!

"This is even more powerful as a defense than Rotation, but... it doesn't have to be used only defensively!"

Uchiha Keigo's eyes turned cold.

He moved his hands slightly.

The next moment, the terrifying waterspout detached from his body and spun wildly forward!

Trees and plants nearby were swept into it.

More terrifying still, as the waterspout spun, the air around it began to twist and swirl. The airflow grew stronger and stronger!

The waterspout grew larger!

Thunder flashed around it!

Everything in its path was reduced to ruins!

The scorched earth bore witness to the fury of the lightning and the waterspout's cutting force!

Suddenly, Uchiha Keigo noticed the lake and couldn't help murmuring, "If... this waterspout absorbed the lake water, how terrifying would it become?"

His eyes lit up!

But the next moment, he couldn't help swallowing.

Better not.

It wouldn't be good if he caused an accident.

The waterspout had already grown nearly ten meters tall, and even he was having trouble controlling it!

That was proof enough of how terrifying it had become!

"All right. That's pretty good. It passes!"

Uchiha Keigo said calmly.

He swept his hand.

The thunder and waterspout vanished.

All that remained was a scene of utter devastation!
