The gathered ninjas: "???"

This is merely passing?

Do you have some kind of prejudice against what it means to pass!

That is a technique that even most Elite Jonin treat as a trump card, yet in your eyes, it is merely passing; this is simply outrageous!

"This kid Keigo... is a bit asking for a beating!"

The scarred man's mouth twitched.

He had an excellent relationship with Kagami Uchiha and paid close attention to Keigo Uchiha; he had originally thought Keigo's talent was formidable, but he had not expected it to reach such a degree.

While he felt gratified.

He could not help but twitch his brows.

This guy... is too easy to hate!

He is already this powerful, yet he still claims to be weak?

"Is there a possibility... that Keigo truly thinks he is weak?"

A ninja suddenly spoke up.

Immediately, the scarred man's expression stiffened.

"Don't speak! No one will mistake you for a mute if you don't talk!"

This is just infuriating!

He is already an Elite Jonin, yet he hasn't even developed any powerful ninjutsu of his own, while Keigo Uchiha is only eight years old and has already developed so many terrifying techniques.

Isn't this a slap in the face!

It is simply embarrassing to the extreme!

However... his expression turned melancholic, "Facing such a genius, who can let their own light shine? In front of him, any ninja seems insignificant."

His expression was complex.

There was gratification, but also a trace of despondency.

He had actually been caught up to by an eight-year-old boy!

On the training grounds.

Keigo Uchiha was still deep in thought, "If I want to unleash powerful ninjutsu, I cannot rely solely on ordinary methods; I must also incorporate certain physical principles."

He recalled the powerful abilities from the Hokage.

"Right! The rotation from just now!"

"Minato Namikaze's Rasengan!"

Suddenly.

His eyes lit up.

"The Rasengan itself is an extremely outstanding, perfect ninjutsu. If I incorporate the spiral characteristics of the Rasengan into my Storm Release, perhaps I can unleash even greater power!"

As he spoke.

He took a deep breath and began to experiment without hesitation.

"Storm Release: Rasengan!"

A crazily rotating sphere slowly appeared in his palm, containing both flowing water and flickering lightning!

Lightning Release cannot form a Rasengan because lightning is uncontrollable; it can only be compressed and diffused like Chidori, and it cannot rotate at high speeds.

But Water Release can!

Storm Release possesses the plasticity of Water Release, so naturally, it can be unleashed in the form of a high-speed rotating Rasengan!

"Sorry, Minato Namikaze, your Rasengan will be invented by me first."

He looked at the sphere in his hand.

A faint smile touched his lips.

Minato Namikaze was still in school right now; he had seen him before, but they had never interacted.

"However... this is still a bit too simple for me!"

The next moment, the Rasengan in his hand began to rotate rapidly, gradually elongating, and finally... becoming a high-speed rotating spear of lightning!

He was only about 1.3 meters tall.

Yet the lightning spear in his hand was a full meter long!

And what made people shudder was.

This lightning spear was not static; it was composed of crazily rotating Storm Release, constantly spinning—the spear body and the spearhead alike!

Lightning flashed violently!

It was enough to make one's hair stand on end!

"This technique contains not only the piercing power of thunder but also the rotational force of flowing water, making its penetration even more terrifying. And if thrown... it can unleash power comparable to a missile!"

"I name this technique... Storm Release: Spiral Spear!"

Keigo Uchiha's gaze was sharp.

"You are currently an A-rank ninjutsu, but that does not mean your limit ends here. When my chakra reserves are full, you will be able to rival S-rank ninjutsu!"

As he finished speaking.

He hurled the Spiral Spear in his hand with all his might!

The Spiral Spear spun frantically, the shaft of the spear twisting the air around it. Wind currents surged, each wisp carrying a cutting edge, and the speed of the spear increased rapidly under the rotation!

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the Spiral Spear!

Does this ninjutsu... possess shocking power once again!

The Spiral Spear vanished from sight.

But the next moment, a terrifying explosion erupted in the forest!

Trees were sent flying!

Within their line of sight, a massive tree shattered and collapsed with a thunderous crash!

It created a giant crater seven or eight meters in diameter and three or four meters deep!

Terrifying spiral patterns marked the center of the pit; one could only imagine the damage this attack would inflict if it landed on a person!

It would be enough... to shatter anyone's body!

The crowd: "..."

When shock becomes the norm.

All they could do was numbly swallow their saliva, and... remain stunned!

"I have offensive methods and defensive methods, but I still need a ninjutsu that grants me high mobility while simultaneously protecting myself."

Keigo Uchiha was lost in thought.

Storm Cloud Tornado could not meet these requirements.

Storm Cloud Tornado could provide protection and create water tornadoes.

But his physical mobility would drop to its lowest point instantly.

Storm Cloud Tornado was not suitable for every situation.

"Lightning Release Armor is the best ninjutsu!"

Keigo Uchiha spoke, enunciating every word. The Nintaijutsu of the Yotsuki Clan had given him great inspiration, and he had already begun practicing the Lightning Release Armor, but the problem now was that he needed to develop a Storm Release ninjutsu!

"Then I shall use Storm Release to replace Lightning Release."

"Storm Release possesses greater power than Lightning Release, while the protective capabilities of Water Release are superior to Lightning Release; the protection of a water film is something Lightning Release cannot compare to!"

At this moment, the benefits of being a science student were fully displayed.

A water film is clearly just a simple layer of film.

But if it is reinforced, it can gain strength greater than steel.

This is why when some people jump from great heights and hit the water surface, they suffer concussions or even have their skulls shattered on the spot!

It is precisely because of the intense water pressure and high-speed impact that this water film becomes so solid!

"Storm Release: Storm Armor Technique!"

Keigo Uchiha shouted sharply!

In an instant.

A cyan-blue armor emerged around his body, appearing as if formed from flowing water, yet interspersed with dense, crackling lightning!

While protecting his body, it caused him no harm, possessing excellent elasticity!

"If it were the Lightning Release Armor, it would protect the body while the lightning would simultaneously damage the user to some extent."

Keigo Uchiha compared the pros and cons of the two.

The Lightning Release Armor is powerful.

But it requires Nintaijutsu training because the lightning also harms the user, which is why only a small number of people can master the Lightning Release Armor.

"But the Storm Armor has no such hidden dangers. The water film protects the body well, and it possesses better elasticity, controllability, and even a certain degree of restorative properties!"

He looked at the cyan-blue armor on his body with great satisfaction.

It covered his body just like the Lightning Release Armor.

But the color was deeper and more intense, somewhat similar to the light effects seen in Naruto Uzumaki's Nine-Tails mode or those of Otsutsuki Toneri, possessing an effect like flickering flames.

Extremely stylish!

He looked like a young deity!

"Fortunately, this is also a ninjutsu without an upper limit. As my understanding of Water Release and Lightning Release grows, the defensive power of this Storm Armor will become even more formidable!"
