Chapter 19 Why did the Uchiha laugh maniacally in the middle of the night?
"Generally speaking, nature changes and form changes can be roughly divided into three types. One type is where the ninjutsu itself changes. For example, Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning belongs to this type. It does not simply convert chakra into flames, but into gunpowder, which then causes an explosion."
"The Fire Release: Phoenix Claw Red is a typical form transformation, with stronger adhesion than ordinary flames, which is why it can be attached to a shuriken."
"It is precisely for this reason that, although Ash Pile Burning and Phoenix Fire Claw Crimson are only B-rank ninjutsu, they still require the Sharingan of the third or second ninjutsu eye to be copied. 'Secret Techniques' are ninjutsu that require too much variation, and the Sharingan cannot directly copy them."
"The other two categories are the user themselves, which causes a change in the nature of the ninjutsu. For example, the Great Fireball Technique is the same, but when I use it and when my father uses it, the temperature and range are completely different. This is not only because of the output of chakra, but also because my father changed the nature and form of the Great Fireball Technique..."
"One type is to modify a specific ninjutsu, and the other type is to change the nature of one's own chakra, so that when using all fire-style techniques, the temperature will be higher."
"Actually, the third type, which is to fundamentally change the nature of one's own chakra, is already the foundation for the birth of bloodline limits. If the change in one's own chakra reaches the level of a 'secret technique,' it will also cause changes in the body, and these changes may be passed down through childbirth," Fugaku said.
After listening to Fugaku's words, Akaishi had a clearer understanding.
One is to directly learn special ninjutsu from predecessors, which is relatively the simplest; another is to modify a certain ninjutsu, and when it reaches its limit, it will form a "secret technique" that breaks away from the original attribute; the third is to transform one's own chakra, making it effective for all ninjutsu of that attribute, and when it reaches its limit, it will form a new chakra attribute that affects the body and can be inherited, which is "bloodline limit"!
Akaishi had known about this kind of chakra-based bloodline limit for a long time.
In the eyes of the Uchiha clan, a mere chakra nature transformation bloodline limit is naturally "not as good as a single Sharingan."
However, even the most ordinary chakra-based bloodline limit is enough to earn respect in the ninja world.
Akaishi asked doubtfully, "I remember seeing somewhere that this kind of bloodline limit requires a mixture of two types of chakra, right?"
Fugaku corrected him, "It should be said that 'usually' it is a mixture of two types of chakra that can cause such a big change, but there are also examples of single-attribute mutations... In fact, theoretically, there is also a 'Fire Release' bloodline limit within the Uchiha clan, which is a mutation of pure fire release chakra."
"It's just that because bloodline limit ninjutsu cannot be directly copied, the clan members usually don't put much effort into this aspect," Fugaku said, shaking his head helplessly.
Indeed, with so many Fire Release ninjas in the Uchiha clan, statistically speaking, the number of bloodline limits derived from Fire Release would accumulate with each generation...
However, the Uchiha clan members are generally not interested in this, so it has always been inherited in a recessive way, only occasionally manifesting.
After all, since fire-style techniques can be mass-produced, who would bother to consider anything other than flame-style techniques...
"Generally, to train in nature transformation, you either need to find ninjutsu that have nature transformation and learn from them to gain experience, or you need to practice more and think more..." Fugaku said, returning to the topic of training.
Akaishi immediately focused his attention—if there is "normal", then there must be "special"!
As expected, Fugaku continued...
"However, for our Uchiha clan, there is actually a simpler... or rather, a different method." Fugaku paused, seemingly unsure whether this could be considered "simple," before continuing, "The Sharingan is the power of the mind, the power of emotions, and naturally, the Sharingan's ocular power can also influence the nature of chakra."
Upon hearing this, Akaishi exclaimed, "As expected of the great Uchiha clan!" and quickly asked, "What should we do?"
Fugaku shook his head and said, "This is already a relatively advanced skill, especially since it consumes too much eye power. Even the clan's inheritance is not as systematic as basic abilities; it can only be said that there are some tricks."
"In short, if you activate your Sharingan when you are emotionally agitated and visualize the type of chakra you want to change, over time the corresponding chakra attribute will be affected..."
"According to the experience summarized within the clan, for Fire Release chakra, the four emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness will change its nature and form."
"Joy can increase the spread speed of Fire Release; anger can increase the temperature of Fire Release; sorrow can make the flames formed by Fire Release more difficult to extinguish; happiness can increase the range of Fire Release."
This training method consumes a great deal of energy from one's pupil techniques, and...
It requires gradual accumulation rather than instant results. Frequent emotional ups and downs can also damage one's mental state, so it is not widely practiced within the Uchiha clan, and naturally, there are not many summaries of it.
Fire Release techniques are most prevalent among the Uchiha clan, so naturally, their methods are summarized in the most detail.
After pondering for a moment, Akaishi asked in bewilderment, "Fugaku-nii, what's the difference between joy and happiness?"
"Joy is more about genuine satisfaction and happiness; pleasure is more about momentary gratification. You can understand it this way—joy is a knowing smile; pleasure is unrestrained laughter," Fugaku explained.
"I see!" Akaishi thought the example was very clear.
At the same time, Akaishi also thought of...
Within the clan, the fire-style ninjutsu used by everyone was generally not very effective at hitting their opponents, leading some to privately criticize the Uchiha clan for not being able to kill with their fire-style techniques.
Looking back now, it was because we weren't fast enough!
However, their ranges are all outstanding, especially the ancestor Uchiha Madara, who is said to be able to burn down a city with a single fire jutsu!
Akaishi hadn't thought much of it before, but after hearing Fugaku's words, he suddenly realized—indeed, there were many "Uchiha Maniacal Laughter" within the clan, but very few "Uchiha Critical Eye" skills...
At the same time, the Uchiha's fire release techniques are usually characterized by "hot means fierce, big means strong"... Now it seems that this is also due to their personality.
……
After listening to Fugaku's "small tricks for changing the nature and form of Fire Release using the Sharingan," Akaishi's mind was in turmoil...
After dinner, Akaishi ran to the deserted training ground and couldn't wait to try it out.
Of course, it wasn't because I was laughing for no reason, but rather... I entered an "immersive short drama experience platform"!
Akaishi wanted to know if, during an immersive experience, when emotions are forcibly led, those thoughts could serve as nourishment for changes in nature and form.
Despite his curiosity, Akaishi forced himself to first do physical training to deplete his stamina and avoid wasting it, and then "immersed" himself in it.
While "immersed" in chakra, Akaishi couldn't gain complete control, couldn't even hit anyone, and his Sharingan was completely ineffective. However... it wasn't that he couldn't awaken his Sharingan; it just wasn't shown in the "short drama." Physically, he could awaken his Sharingan. Similarly, he could secretly train his chakra control at this time...
