Chakra Test

The three had already begun warming up at the training ground when Uchiha Ming slowly approached. He watched them train for a while before speaking. "Not bad. You're full of energy. It seems this mission helped all of you grow quite a bit. Stop for a moment. Here are three chakra paper strips. Channel chakra into them." The three took the paper and infused it with chakra. Changes soon appeared.

"Fire: the paper catches fire. Wind: the paper splits down the middle. Lightning: the paper wrinkles. Water: the paper becomes wet. Earth: the paper crumbles. If someone possesses all five attributes, then one section will catch fire, one section will split open, one section will become wrinkled, one section will become wet, and the last section will crumble. Of course, that situation is basically..." Uchiha Ming was still explaining how to use the paper and what to watch out for when he saw Uchiha Yo's result and froze in shock. On Uchiha Yo's paper, one section had caught fire, one section had split open, one section had become wrinkled, one section had become wet, and the last section had crumbled into pieces.

Uchiha Yo looked at the paper in his hand without the slightest surprise, because he had used one before. Since crossing over here, aside from having all five attributes, his mental strength was also far beyond ordinary. He had an excellent memory for what he saw and learned quickly. He had barely needed to learn chakra control before he could climb trees and walk on water, no weaker than Sakura in the original story. Ignoring the astonished looks of the other three, he instead examined his two teammates' results. Uchiha Retsu had fire, earth, and lightning. Uchiha En had fire, wind, and earth. What the hell was Retsu doing? He had no water attribute, yet he knew the Water Prison Technique. He was good at lightning, but barely used it in battle, relying almost entirely on fire.

Uchiha Ming quickly came back to his senses and looked at the other two strips. After some thought, he said, "The three of you now know both your own situations and those of the others. Do you have any thoughts? After all, I need to hear your opinions before making a training plan."

Uchiha En spoke first. "I'll go first. I'd like to learn more defensive and control-type ninjutsu. I see myself as the team's support and backup. I've used chakra paper before, so the ninjutsu I've learned also lean toward these three attributes. At the moment, I have one ninjutsu from each: 'Earth Style: Earth-Style Wall,' 'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique,' and 'Wind Style: Great Breakthrough.' As for ninja tools, I only know the Uchiha Shuriken Technique."

Uchiha Yo also said, "I prefer charging in and using mixed ninjutsu. My mixed ninjutsu are still limited to using different techniques in succession with a certain degree of continuity; I haven't fused them into entirely new ninjutsu. At present, I know 'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique,' 'Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique,' 'Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Claw Red,' 'Fire Style: Dragon Flame Technique,' 'Earth Style: Inner Decapitation Technique,' 'Earth Style: Earth-Style Wall,' and 'Wind Style: Wind Release.' For ninja tools, I know the Uchiha Shuriken Technique and Shuriken Manipulation Technique. I'm currently studying swordsmanship under my father."

The two were actually most curious about Uchiha Retsu. Seeing everyone looking at him, he spoke somewhat guiltily. "I'm better at setting traps and like confusing enemies. I know a little of ninjutsu from all five attributes. 'Water Style: Water Prison Technique' can only be used in water. I'm still training 'Wind Style: Great Breakthrough.' I don't really like using 'Lightning Style: Earth Walk.' I can use 'Earth Style: Inner Decapitation Technique' and 'Earth Style: Earth-Style Wall' proficiently. I prefer using Fire Style, especially 'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique' and 'Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique.' As for ninja tools, I know the Uchiha Shuriken Technique and Shuriken Manipulation Technique. I'm currently training in the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique."

"Brother, I know your grandpa dotes on you, but your training is seriously way too willful." Uchiha En patted Retsu on the shoulder as he spoke. Uchiha Yo could not help adding, "Brother, I think you're the one with all five attributes. You know something from every attribute. You're much stronger than me." Seeing that it was about enough, Uchiha Ming said to the three of them, "Today, continue training as you have been, except for you, Uchiha Retsu. You can stop practicing 'Wind Style: Great Breakthrough' and focus on the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique. Go home and tell your families that I'll invite two friends to help train you. Their time is limited, so pack your luggage. We'll be undergoing closed training for one week. Gather here early tomorrow morning. You're free to go now." With that, he turned and left.
