After arriving at the training ground.
“Ling, how is the practice going for the Ninjutsu I taught you yesterday?”
“Big brother, I can already release it!”
“It’s fine if you haven’t mastered it…
wait, what?
You already know it?
You actually learned a C-rank Ninjutsu in just one day?!!”
Yezhue Ai had a look of pure shock on his face, as if he were about to devour Ling.
“Yeah, big brother.
I don’t know why, but when I was learning Earth Flash, it felt completely different from learning the Three Basic Jutsu!”
“I feel like I can mobilize the lightning-attribute Chakra in my body very easily, even more easily than non-attributed Chakra!”
After hearing Ye Yue Ling’s words, Yezhue Ai realized that his younger brother seemed to have an extraordinary affinity for lightning-attribute Chakra.
“Ling, you must have an extraordinary affinity for lightning-attribute Chakra.
You’re stronger than me—no, you’re stronger than both me and Father!”
“I think you can directly learn Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
With your affinity for lightning Chakra, you will definitely be able to learn it quickly!”
After Yezhue Ai finished speaking, he looked at Ye Yue Ling.
Ye Yue Ling also felt his older brother’s expectations and spoke up: “Big brother, teach me Lightning Release Chakra Mode then.
As the son of the Third Raikage, how could I fail to learn Lightning Release Chakra Mode!”
Ye Yue Ling said with a smile.
“Good, as expected of my son.”
In the distance, the Third Raikage could be seen walking toward them.
This morning, after hearing Ye Yue Ling’s speech, the Third Raikage grew even fonder of his youngest son, feeling that he had been intelligent since childhood.
So, shortly after arriving at the Raikage Building, he handed all his tasks over to his secretary and ran out alone, wanting to see how Ye Yue Ling’s training with his older brother was going.
He had just arrived when he overheard Ye Yue Ling’s ambitious declaration.
“Alright, Ai, you go rest first.
I will teach Ling the Lightning Release Chakra Mode.”
“Yes.”
After Yezhue Ai finished speaking, he sat on a nearby rock, preparing to watch Ye Yue Ling train.
Yezhue Ai didn’t actually like watching others train; he only liked training himself.
However, Ye Yue Ling had given him such a massive surprise that he also wanted to see how long it would take for Ye Yue Ling to cultivate the Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
“Ling, to cultivate the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, you must first feel the lightning-attribute Chakra cells in your body.
Close your eyes and sink your consciousness into your own body.”
After hearing this, Ye Yue Ling closed his eyes, submerged his consciousness into his body, and went to sense the Lightning Release Chakra cells.
After sensing for about the time it takes an incense stick to burn, Ye Yue Ling opened his eyes.
“Father, I can already feel the lightning-attribute Chakra cells in my body.”
Ye Yue Ling spoke excitedly.
He truly could not contain his excitement.
This was the first time in his two lives that he had felt the cells within his own body and the power contained within them.
“Good.
Since you’ve felt the cells, the next step is to use the lightning-attribute Chakra in your body to continuously stimulate these cells, filling them with the lightning attribute.”
“This is an arduous process, and you must persevere.
When your older brother and I learned the Lightning Release Chakra Mode back then, we both suffered quite a bit.
I believe you can do it too.”
“Yes, Father!”
Ye Yue Ling replied while simultaneously using Lightning Release Chakra to stimulate his cells.
“After stimulating the cells, proceed with physical training.
If you only stimulate the cells without training, your body won’t be able to withstand this violent power.”
After the Third Raikage finished speaking, he opened a sealing scroll and took out a training dummy.
However, this training dummy was different from ordinary ones; its entire body was surrounded by lightning, though it was unclear how the electricity was applied.
The Third Raikage placed the training dummy in front of Ye Yue Ling.
“While stimulating your body’s Lightning Release Chakra cells, if you can multitask, you can attack this dummy while stimulating them.
If you can manage that, the speed at which you stimulate your body’s cells will become even faster.”
Hearing the Third Raikage’s words, Ye Yue Ling tried to attack the dummy while stimulating his cells.
“Ling, there’s no need to rush.
Multitasking is not that easy to achieve.
Attacking the dummy after you finish stimulating the cells will work just as well.”
Ye Yue Ling didn’t hear the Third Raikage’s subsequent words.
He simply sank his heart into his body while letting his physical form move according to instinct.
Snap!
A crisp sound rang out, accompanied by the sizzle of electric currents.
Ye Yue Ling actually attacked the dummy with his eyes closed, and he did not interrupt the process of stimulating his Lightning Release Chakra cells.
Seeing this scene, even the Third Raikage found it somewhat unbelievable.
Behind them, Yezhue Ai had already stood up in shock.
One must know that back then, Yezhue Ai had practiced multitasking for nearly half a month, yet Ye Yue Ling had succeeded in such a short time.
After another incense stick’s time had passed.
“Father, I’ve finished the stimulation!”
“Hmm.
Ling, remember not to be arrogant or careless.
Back then, it took me about the same amount of time as you to master multitasking, and your older brother also only took the time of one incense stick.”
Instead of feeling discouraged after hearing this, Ye Yue Ling was extremely happy.
After all, he knew his father’s strength and his older brother’s ultimate strength.
His father had fought against ten thousand alone, killing thousands and nearly wiping out the next generation of Iwagakure, leaving them with almost no usable successors after the Third Shinobi World War.
His older brother was also arguably the strongest among the later five Kage.
To be on par with the two of them made Ye Yue Ling very happy.
“Why is this kid so happy?
I thought he would be feeling down.”
The Third Raikage thought to himself.
But he would never have imagined that Ye Yue Ling was happy just to be equal to them.
“Alright, Ling.
Since you’ve already learned the basic cultivation method for Lightning Release Chakra, you can study on your own from now on.
Your older brother will also have to go out on missions soon.
Remember, you must train every day; do not be slack.”
“Yes, Father!
I will train hard and definitely won’t let you down!”
Ye Yue Ling said with a serious face.
— Line Break —
One year later…
“It’s time to report to the Ninja Academy today.
Ling, hurry up and get out of bed!”
