Starting Out With Indra's Chakra 21

"Then I won't hold back."

Liu Feng certainly would not hold back. Using the Body Flicker Technique, he appeared behind Uchiha Fugaku and slammed a Rasengan toward him.

The ground was blasted into a huge crater. Uchiha Fugaku, who had barely managed to dodge, broke out in a cold sweat. He had nearly been killed by that ball of Chakra.

"A hand-signless ninjutsu?"

The watching ninja were visibly moved. The Rasengan was the first ninjutsu that could be used without hand signs.

"The power of that ninjutsu is at least A-rank. Did that Uchiha brat develop it himself?" Tsunade watched Liu Feng with great interest.

Although this was her first time meeting Uchiha Liu Feng, she had heard of him from Nawaki long ago. According to Nawaki, the two had a fairly good relationship.

Naturally, Tsunade remembered the Uchiha clan member who was on good terms with Nawaki.

"That ninjutsu..." Orochimaru's eyes held a trace of greed. He was fanatical about ninjutsu, especially such unusual hand-signless techniques.

"Tch, so this is a genius? It's a little irritating."

Jiraiya spoke with a twitching mouth. This brat was only around ten years old and had not been out of the academy for long. He had supposedly already become a Chunin.

Judging by his current performance, his strength was probably far beyond that of a Chunin.

"A hand-signless ninjutsu..."

Inside the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi fell into deep thought.

Regardless of what the spectators were thinking, the battle continued. Liu Feng held a Kunai and engaged Uchiha Fugaku in a taijutsu clash.

Though he was younger, both his speed and strength far surpassed Uchiha Fugaku's, leaving Fugaku completely suppressed.

Moreover, Uchiha Fugaku was not a ninja who excelled at taijutsu. What he was better at was ninjutsu—Fire Style Ninjutsu.

"A Two Tomoe Sharingan, not bad."

Liu Feng stared at Uchiha Fugaku's Two Tomoe Sharingan. Fugaku attempted to use Sharingan genjutsu on him, but even without activating his own Sharingan, Liu Feng was unaffected by Fugaku's illusion.

His spiritual power was simply too strong. Ordinary genjutsu could not possibly affect Liu Feng.

"Lightning Style: Chidori."

High-intensity electric currents formed from Lightning Chakra gathered in Liu Feng's right palm. The sound of the current was like a thousand birds chirping.

Activating his Three Tomoe Sharingan, he used Sharingan genjutsu the instant his eyes met Uchiha Fugaku's, leaving Fugaku stunned.

Then he charged straight ahead. Crossing ten meters in less than a second, Liu Feng appeared before Uchiha Fugaku. His palm, wrapped in Lightning Chakra, pierced through Fugaku's abdomen like a blade.

He instantly withdrew his hand, then delivered a side kick to Uchiha Fugaku's chest, sending him flying.

That final side kick was also immensely powerful. Liu Feng clearly heard the crack of breaking bones.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Even the Uchiha Clan Head only reacted after Liu Feng had finished attacking.

Seeing Uchiha Fugaku's miserable, severely injured state, the Uchiha Clan Head flew into a rage and glared at Liu Feng with killing intent.

"Someone, take Fugaku away for treatment!" the Uchiha Clan Head roared.

His abdomen had been pierced and his ribs broken. It would take at least a month for those injuries to fully heal.

"Uchiha Liu Feng, you struck far too viciously. You actually tried to kill a fellow clansman."

After Uchiha Fugaku was sent to Konoha Hospital, the Uchiha Clan Head turned and fixed his gaze on Liu Feng, looking as though he wished he could kill him on the spot.

Especially when he saw Liu Feng's Three Tomoe Sharingan, the threat was simply too great. If Uchiha Liu Feng remained alive, his son would likely be unable to inherit the position of Clan Head.

Yet he did not dare make a move against Liu Feng. Uchiha Sou was standing nearby, watching him.

If he attacked, he would face Uchiha Sou's furious strike as he protected his grandson. He truly was not confident he could defeat that old man.

"Clan Head, you've wronged me. If I had truly intended to kill him, Uchiha Fugaku would already be dead," Liu Feng said calmly in the face of the Clan Head's murderous glare.

In this battle, Liu Feng had held back tremendously. In fact, he had already had the chance to kill Uchiha Fugaku with the first Rasengan.

If Liu Feng had not deliberately slowed down, how could Uchiha Fugaku possibly have dodged it?

Later, when he used Chidori, if Liu Feng had attacked Uchiha Fugaku's heart, Fugaku would already be cold in the ground.

It was only because Liu Feng considered the consequences of killing Uchiha Fugaku not worth the cost that he deliberately spared his life.

"Clan Head, no rules were established for the earlier challenge. Even if Uchiha Fugaku had been killed, Liu Feng could not be blamed. Now that Liu Feng has held back, he has already shown consideration for their kinship."

Uchiha Sou spoke indifferently, his imposing presence pressing down on the Uchiha Clan Head.

The Uchiha Clan Head's face turned ashen. In the end, he angrily turned and headed toward Konoha Hospital.

"Come on, let's head back first."

A smile appeared on Uchiha Sou's face. He could not have been more satisfied with Liu Feng's performance. As expected of his grandson—his talent might even rival that of their ancestor, Uchiha Madara.

The duel had ended in less than three minutes, leaving countless spectators stunned. However, Liu Feng's reputation as a genius now spread throughout Konoha.

"Liu Feng, you made quite a name for yourself this time and even revealed your Three Tomoe Sharingan. The tree that rises above the forest is the first to be felled by the wind. You must be careful from now on."

After returning home, Uchiha Sou gave Liu Feng a stern warning.

"Don't worry, Grandfather. I know what I'm doing," Liu Feng said with a smile.

He had indeed exposed quite a bit of his strength this time, putting himself in the spotlight. But what he had revealed was merely the tip of the iceberg.

Besides, with his current strength, he truly had no need to fear too much. He already had the capital to make waves.

Of course, Liu Feng would definitely not reveal his Mangekyō Sharingan easily. Activating a Three Tomoe Sharingan at the age of ten could still be described with the word genius.

But if word got out that he possessed a Mangekyō Sharingan at ten, Black Zetsu, hidden in the shadows, and the barely clinging-to-life Uchiha Madara would both turn their attention toward him.

Possessing a Mangekyō Sharingan at ten was no longer something that could be described as mere genius. In truth, that was indeed the case. Had Liu Feng not obtained his Mangekyō Sharingan through the System Cheat?

If he had relied on himself, he would have needed at least another three to five years to activate the Mangekyō.

"By the way, were those two ninjutsu you displayed earlier developed by you?"

Uchiha Sou looked at Liu Feng and asked.

"More or less," Liu Feng answered vaguely.

At present, he was indeed the first person to use the Rasengan and Chidori. He would probably become the founder of those two ninjutsu in the future.

"I expect the Third Hokage will approach you because of those two ninjutsu. What do you intend to do?" Uchiha Sou asked as he looked at Liu Feng.

The Third Hokage would certainly urge Liu Feng to have the two techniques recorded in the Scroll of Seals. Of course, given Liu Feng's status, the Third Hokage would not force him. He would only try to persuade him.

"I think we can trade them for some benefits."

Liu Feng's eyes flickered. There was a reason he had deliberately displayed those two ninjutsu. Otherwise, he could have defeated Uchiha Fugaku using ordinary Fire Style techniques alone.

He had used the Rasengan and Chidori precisely to draw the Third Hokage's attention, then exchange them for benefits.

"Do as you see fit."

Uchiha Sou would not interfere too much with Liu Feng. He knew Liu Feng was mature and had his own ideas.

After leaving Uchiha Sou's place, Liu Feng returned home, where Mikoto and Kushina were also waiting.

"Liu Feng, can you teach me ninjutsu?"

Kushina ran up to Liu Feng, eagerly poured him a glass of water, then asked him.

"So that's why you voluntarily poured me water. You want me to teach you ninjutsu. Forget it. Go study your Sealing Jutsu instead."

"You jerk." Kushina angrily drank the water she had just poured for Liu Feng herself.

"I'm doing this for your own good. Trying to learn too much at once will only leave you with nothing. Once you've mastered Sealing Jutsu, I'll teach you ninjutsu."

Liu Feng tapped Kushina on the forehead irritably. He truly did mean well; there was no benefit in Kushina learning too much right now.

"And if you want me to teach you later, you'll have to pay tuition. My tuition isn't cheap, so don't expect me to teach you for free."

Kushina was thrilled and paid no attention to Liu Feng's mention of tuition. It seemed she would need to set aside time to study Sealing Jutsu properly. Once she learned it, she could study cool ninjutsu.

In the blink of an eye, a week had passed since Liu Feng's duel with Uchiha Fugaku, yet there were still many people discussing it.

Konoha's civilians and ninja, the other Major Clans, and even members within the Uchiha family continued to talk about it.

Nearly everyone in Konoha knew Liu Feng's name. He was hailed as a genius who had surpassed Orochimaru.

Well, Konoha's greatest genius had previously been Orochimaru, the Hokage's disciple. Now, Liu Feng had surpassed Orochimaru.

Within the Uchiha family, although the Clan Head had forbidden any discussion, many clansmen still talked about it.

The Uchiha clan members were now divided into two factions. One stood with the Clan Head and supported Uchiha Fugaku becoming the next Clan Head.

The other stood with the Great Elder and supported Liu Feng becoming the next Clan Head. Originally, the Clan Head's faction had held the numerical advantage.

But after the battle with Uchiha Fugaku, the number of supporters on both sides had become equal, and Liu Feng even held a slight advantage.

In truth, Liu Feng did not have many thoughts about becoming the Uchiha Clan Head. Besides, it was still far too early. At only ten years old, he could not take on the position of Clan Head.

"Young Master, an Anbu ninja has come to deliver a message. The Third Hokage asks you to visit him."

Uchiha No reported to Liu Feng.

"He's finally here. I've been waiting for a week." A smile appeared on Liu Feng's face. As expected of an old fox—he really knew how to keep his composure.

Liu Feng then headed to the Hokage Building. Arriving at the Hokage's office, he saw Hiruzen Sarutobi once again.

"Liu Feng, you're here."

When Hiruzen Sarutobi saw Liu Feng, a smile appeared on his face. Inwardly, he was considering how to coax those two ninjutsu out of Liu Feng.

"Hokage, let's be straightforward. You want the Rasengan and Chidori, don't you?"

Without even waiting for Hiruzen Sarutobi to say anything, Liu Feng laid it all out.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression froze, and his mind went blank. All the reasons he had prepared to persuade Liu Feng to hand over the ninjutsu suddenly became impossible to say.

Why wasn't this brat following the script? Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression stiffened, and he had no idea what to say.
