Each One's Gains

Ren's need for time is simply due to his larger Chakra reserves.

However, it didn't take long before the hatches in front of Ren and Kakashi opened almost simultaneously.

Even if Kakashi's left eye wasn't his own, the fact that it took him about the same amount of time as Ren was enough to show just how weak Kakashi really was.

The youngest Jonin, Konoha's strongest genius— Kakashi's past titles were indeed remarkable, but unfortunately, they were earned with his life.

After Ren exited the capsule, he was amazed to see that Kai was still undergoing transformation.

I reckon it'll take off immediately when it comes out!

This wasn't just Ren guess; he actually tested his ninja skills after he emerged.

Leaving aside the enhancements from Taijutsu and Ninjutsu, the most crucial element is the Sharingan.

Ren no longer needs to consume ocular power to use the Mangekyo Sharingan Dōjutsu, well, that's not entirely accurate.

The power of the eye is essentially a special kind of Chakra produced by the Mangekyō Sharingan, and now Ren no longer needs special treatment.

Directly channeling true energy into the eyes will automatically transform it into suitable pupil power under the influence of the Sharingan, allowing you to unleash Dōjutsu.

This was not unexpected for Ren, after all, the authority of True Essence was directly equivalent to that of the Six Paths and Kaguya.

In other words, it bypassed the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan Rinnegan, directly reaching the Six Paths level.

Of course, it's just a matter of permissions; Ren wouldn't actually use Shinra Tensei.

Even Ren's own Kagutsuchi, for example, couldn't be taught to Shisui.

The Sage of Six Paths was equally strict in this regard, only providing the result, not the process.

In learning ordinary Ninjutsu, in addition to learning Hand Seals and Chakra flow, a responsible teacher will also teach the underlying principles.

It's like not only telling you how to use the app, but also teaching you how to make it.

The Sharingan and Rinnegan Dōjutsu are essentially just a ready-made app account with an instruction manual.

Use it as you please, but you have no chance to understand its principles, let alone teach it to others.

However, Ren felt that this was enough. Although his own Dōjutsu was terrible, Kakashi's was not.

Ren immediately pulled Kakashi and Shisui aside and asked them about the state of their Sharingan.

As expected, Kakashi now uses Kamui without any burden or restriction. As long as he has enough true energy, he can enter the Kamui Space whenever he wants.

Shisui, having also been strengthened, was able to use Kotoamatsukami again; however, according to Shisui, he would still be unable to use it again for several years afterward.

At most, true essence can be used to shorten this process.

After confirming that Shisui had unleashed Kotoamatsukami, Ren pondered when to use it.

Feeling aimless for the time being, Ren could only keep it in his heart for now.

After discussing for a while, the three returned to where they came from. By then, the ninjas who had undergone the transformation had already left the area in an orderly fashion and gone outside to familiarize themselves with their increased power.

A new batch of members arrived, standing in front of their respective positions, waiting for the researchers to finish adjusting the equipment.

Half an hour had passed since Ren came out.

To Ren's surprise, Kai was still undergoing transformation inside the capsule.

Finally, Ren realized something was wrong and pulled a swaying researcher in front of him.

"What's going on there? Why is it taking so long?"

Ren pointed to Kai's conversion pod and asked.

"Lord Hokage, that's Might Guy 'Jonin conversion pod. This is normal!"

The researcher responded with an air of self-evident certainty.

Everyone knows that Might Guy is awesome, right?

Ren didn't think so; there must be something he had overlooked.

After releasing the researcher, Ren quietly approached Kabuto from behind, who was busy running around.

After waiting a few minutes, a new batch of 100 people—no, 99 people—began the conversion process.

Ren asked Kabuto.

"Why did Kai's transformation take so long?"

Kabuto was also taken aback when he heard Ren's question.

Wasn't Jonin Ren designated by Might Guy?

Kabuto, realizing he had misunderstood, thought Ren simply hadn't figured it out yet, so he offered a reminder.

"Ren, it's because of the Eight Gates!"
