Lightning Style: Kirin - One-Click Max Level

"This Qin Yu seems a bit arrogant. The learning curve for an A-rank ninjutsu is no small feat; even the experienced Uzuki took over a month to master it. How could he possibly succeed in three days?" Inubou couldn't help but remark.

"Enough, young people are all like this. A few setbacks will do him good," Uzuki Cangwu said, patting Inubou on the shoulder. "I hope Qin Yu realizes that some things cannot be forced."

Outside the karst cave, in a somewhat secluded basin.

Qin Yu spread out the Lightning Style scroll and immediately activated his Mangekyo Sharingan.

The Sharingan in Kakashi's possession had forged the reputation of the Copy Ninja.

For any ninja, there are two critical hurdles in learning ninjutsu: the first is mastering the basics, and the second is achieving proficiency.

However, with the Mangekyo Sharingan, Qin Yu could achieve the basics in an instant, and as for proficiency, he could max it out with a single click.

Qin Yu could now be said to be equipped with both the physical cheat from the original work and an invincible leveling cheat.

It was absolutely heaven-defying!

Ding, hand seal technique speed detected. Max out with one click?

"Max it out immediately."

Qin Yu's hands flew rapidly, and the chakra within his body underwent precise nature transformation.

"Lightning Style: Falling Thunder!"

The moment the final seal was cast, a low rumble echoed from the sky.

Nine bolts of lightning, like dragons emerging from the abyss, struck the rock seven or eight meters away with fierce intensity.

BOOM!

The massive rock shattered instantly.

As the lightning splashed and debris flew, a crater over ten meters wide was blasted into the ground.

The scene, shrouded in smoke, was truly shocking.

Looking at this, Qin Yu couldn't help but be stunned.

According to the scroll's description of the A-rank Lightning Style: Falling Thunder, once mastered, one could commune with the free-roaming lightning elements of heaven and earth to unleash a single bolt of lightning.

However, what he saw before him far exceeded that scope.

"Could it be because of the One-Click Max Level System?" Qin Yu raised an eyebrow.

He remembered Uchiha Madara once saying in the original work that there are no weak ninjutsu, only weak people.

Even a Fire Style: Great Fireball could be used with the impact of an ultimate move.

Only Uchiha Madara could achieve such a feat.

Now, Qin Yu's situation was likely due to the ninjutsu being maxed out.

However, that single strike had still consumed one-tenth of the chakra in Qin Yu's body.

Ding, Lightning attribute chakra, maxed out with one click.

Ding, Lightning Style: Falling Thunder, maxed out with one click.

Ding, Lightning attribute natural energy sensing, maxed out with one click.

The system prompts echoing in his mind instantly confirmed Qin Yu's hypothesis.

Looking at the crater blasted out by the lightning, he suddenly recalled that incredibly powerful ninjutsu from the Lightning Style repertoire, wielded by Uchiha Sasuke.

S-rank: Lightning Style: Kirin!

It could be said that if this ninjutsu didn't require specific weather conditions and environmental factors to be unleashed, its destructive power alone could rival Uzumaki Naruto's Wind Style: Rasenshuriken.

Unfortunately, in the original work, while Lightning Style: Kirin made a spectacular debut, it became a "one-hit wonder" later on.

It never appeared a second time!

This remains a regret for many fans of the series.

With over a hundred Cloud Ninja approaching, including the AB Duo, this was destined to be a tough battle.

Once drawn into a war of attrition, even with the Mangekyo Sharingan, Qin Yu would be exhausted to death given his current chakra levels.

Therefore, this S-rank Lightning Style: Kirin might be the key for Qin Yu to turn the tide.

By borrowing the power of heaven and earth's lightning, he could minimize chakra consumption and unleash an attack at one-thousandth the speed of light, serving as a large-scale killing move that might catch the enemy off guard.

Moreover, Qin Yu still had the One-Click Max Level System.

There was a high probability he could replicate Lightning Style: Kirin and keep it as a trump card, which wouldn't be bad at all.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Ding, Lightning Style: Kirin, maxed out with one click.

Hearing that familiar prompt, Qin Yu let out a sigh of relief.

The faint connection he had established with the thunderclouds gathering in the sky was severed in an instant.

The thunderclouds that had been pressing down upon the world dissipated with a roar, and the looming, immense pressure vanished as quickly as it had appeared.

"I'm fortunate to have the One-Click Max Level System; even my perception of natural lightning-attribute energy is at the maximum level. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to successfully test Lightning Style: Kirin so smoothly." Qin Yu dispersed the chakra within his body.

Through his training during this period, he had come to clearly understand the shortcoming of the Uchiha clan: a lack of mana!

It was no wonder that even with the Sage Eye and Sage Body, they were eventually worn down in every prolonged battle.

Even Uchiha Madara from the original story had gone to great lengths to transplant and consume the cells of the First Hokage.

It seemed that once the matters here were concluded, Qin Yu would still need to find a way to get his hands on a Sage Body.

When Qin Yu emerged from the secluded basin, the twenty-seven Konoha ninjas left behind had already finished assembling.

Every face was solemn, all of them prepared for battle, with a hint of a resolve to die in their pupils.

In their eyes, this was a war from which there was no retreat; facing over a hundred Cloud Ninja and the AB Duo, the odds were grim.

However, behind this pass lay the flat, open plains of the Land of Fire.

Once this position fell, let alone Konoha, even their families would be plunged into an irredeemable abyss, so they could not retreat.

"Qin Yu, if you haven't mastered the A-rank ninjutsu, don't be discouraged. Even that bastard Uzuki took over a month," Inubou couldn't help but advise.

"However, that cumulonimbus cloud that appeared just now—it felt like something was hiding inside, putting a heavy pressure on our minds. We even thought the Cloud Ninja were launching a sneak attack."

"Inubou, why bring up things that shouldn't be mentioned? Can't you talk a little less?" Uzuki Cangwu glared at him.

"Kid, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Like I said before, if you can't hold on, take Shizune and escape first. A ninjutsu isn't something you can learn in just two or three days."

Seeing Qin Yu appear, the expressions of many softened slightly.

After all, having witnessed the powerful genjutsu Qin Yu had displayed, they felt an inexplicable sense of trust toward this youth who had once been unknown.
