Chapter 107
But the components of chakra energy continue to obey the shinobi even outside the body, in most cases—provided that the connection with the allocated energy is not lost. It is this that explains the ability of the Naras to stretch their shadows for hundreds of meters from the source, as well as Kushina's chains.
If you think about it, the Sage of the Six Paths also created objects from his energy and they remained in the specified form, acquiring physical form. Nagato's metal stakes can be included in the same list, as well as the perfect illusions of the resurrected Nidaime Mizukage in the Fourth War, consisting of yin energy. And he didn't even have the legendary dojutsu, unlike the other two.
The main problem when applying such techniques is to divide the chakra inside one's source into two components and use only one of them. The Naras spend about three to five years just learning this process, and then they start learning the secret techniques themselves.
No wonder Shikamaru knew only one technique upon graduation, although he could use it at a fairly high level. Of course, this could be due to simple laziness, but I, too, only know one hiden jutsu for now and have not yet achieved the desired result from its use.
Although my peers may control their shadows much worse, I still can't move a captured clone with just my desire, without my movements. It's only comforting that the speed of stretching the shadow is higher for me, even without using a concentration seal. Hm, about four years spent on extracting yin, how many will be needed for yang?
The fact that I am taught to distinguish them is already a huge plus, but training will still be necessary. I suppose in the manga Kushina, this was much easier only because of the huge bias towards the yin component, excluding the use of normal jutsu, but this time, such a thing will not happen due to my intervention in her development.
More precisely, Mito is made to develop the yin component of her, but at my suggestion. So, the sooner I can figure out how to create golden chains from yang energy, the sooner I can teach Kushina and Mito to create them.
And now the question is—what to sacrifice in order to find additional time in my already busy daily schedule? And I can't even use clones, which is the most annoying thing, because clones can only be created from ready-made chakra, and all attempts to use yin energy have ended in failure—the technique is simply not designed for this.
By the way, over the years of using Shadow Clones for jutsu, I have discovered many useful facts about the principle of operation of this technique. In particular—the reasons for fatigue when using a large number of copies or the ability to receive all the memory of a dispersed shadow clone.
When the external shell made of a thin layer of chakra is damaged, the technique is interrupted, and the existing yin energy dissipates, while the yang returns to the creator of the clone, transferring all the acquired experience to him.
At the same time, the balance of energies in the body shifts, and fatigue occurs, both mental, due to the influx of information, and physical, due to the altered energy ratio. Of course, through training, these drawbacks can be minimized, but for a shinobi without regeneration, the process is too slow, and not everyone has enough chakra.
It's scary to think what a monster Hoshigaki Kisame would become if he had the opportunity to train in this way. Or other jinchuriki with huge chakra reserves. This once again confirms the correctness of the actions of Konoha, Kumo, and Kiri (from their point of view) towards the Uzumaki clan.
If there were at least fifteen of them instead of two, and combined with the forces of the five great villages, it might not have been enough to destroy Uzushiogakure no Sato. And even the jinchuriki wouldn't have helped much, considering the overwhelming seals and absorbing barriers capable of holding even the Nine-Tails, as Kushina vividly demonstrated in the manga.
Given her condition, it's a very telling achievement. Thinking about two thousand fighters capable of using chains from yang energy, I wanted to burst out laughing loudly. I wonder what figures the enemies will make when I send them the scroll with the techniques of my grandfather!
If my memory doesn't fail me, this technique was first used by little Kushina to suppress the Nine-Tails, but Mito managed just fine all her life without it, coping with just the power of her chakra, which means her chains will be even stronger!
I caught myself starting to snicker disgustingly like Orochimaru, all that's left is to lick myself, and the picture will be complete. Brrr!
Hastily erasing the image drawn by imagination before my inner eye, I returned my thoughts to the right track. As much as I would like to have the ability to instantly erect a shield of chakra, I'll have to put this project on hold for a while—progress is too slow compared to the same chains, not to mention studying kenjutsu, which is progressing very productively for now.
