Chapter-63

Sin and Athena found themselves standing side by side in the grand arena of Abraham household, their hearts filled with anticipation. With a commanding yet gentle voice, Athena beckoned Sin closer, signaling that it was finally time to impart upon him the wisdom of the long-awaited final step of the Heaven Piercing second lotus technique.

She informed him that this particular action was intricately connected to their magical abilities. She informed him that, she possessed the extraordinary power of manipulating fire. With fortitude etched across her face, Athena confidently grasped the spear in her palm, however, it was not just any ordinary spear made of wood, but rather a tangible, authentic weapon.

Athena assumed the identical appearance as the initial and intermediate phases of the Lotus, with every aspect mirroring the previous stages. However, just prior to her release, she adorned the spear with a fiery enchantment, infusing it with the power of fire style. With a swift motion, she launched the weapon, utilizing the technique reminiscent of the Lotus' second stage.

As the spear made contact with the earth's surface, a mesmerizing spectacle unfolded before Sin's eyes. Flames sprouted from the point of impact, swirling and dancing in intricate patterns, gradually forming a magnificent lotus-like figure at the center.

She inquired about what he had gained from observing this particular action. He responded by revealing that the flames had transformed into a beautiful lotus flower.

Her response was an exact affirmation, solidifying the fact that this was the very justification behind the name given to this particular method - Heaven Piercing Nine Lotus.

After taking out the spear, Sin utilized his chakra to ignite a blazing fire, enveloping the weapon in a scorching inferno. Mimicking the formidable form of Athena, he copied her every movement before launching the spear towards its intended target.

As the spear twirled through the air, it created a mesmerizing display. When it finally descended to the ground, resembling the graceful descent of Athena's spear, it ignited the Lotus formation into an expansive inferno.

Sin had a sudden realization that the aftershock of the attack always took the form of a lotus, although it had gone unnoticed due to its invisible nature. Overwhelmed by this newfound understanding, he eagerly shared his revelation with Athena, who couldn't help but smile at his astuteness. Responding affirmatively, she acknowledged that he was indeed correct in his observation.

Curiosity piqued, he inquired as to why her reaction seemed less awe-struck compared to their previous encounter. Athena responded to Sin, explaining that she now had complete faith in his abilities and knew that he could effortlessly execute such techniques. In her eyes, he was an unparalleled prodigy, unlike any other she had ever witnessed.

Receiving the commendation of being called a prodigy by someone of such high stature, like her, was truly a cause for celebration. Sin, however, humbly attributes his success solely to his remarkable Sharingan, which enables him to flawlessly replicate the techniques of others.

Sin then told her a curious question, eager to expand his combat skills beyond his current expertise in ranged techniques. He humbly requested Athena's guidance in close combat with a spear, recognizing the invaluable knowledge she possessed. Intrigued and delighted by Sin's curiosity and determination, the woman reciprocated her smile and gladly revealed that the next stage of the formidable Heaven Piercing Lotus technique was known as the Silver Lotus. This revelation brought a sense of anticipation and excitement to Sin, as he realized that he was embarking on a transformative journey towards mastering this ancient martial art.

Reflecting on the previous stages, Sin recalled that the initial Lotus was aptly named the Lotus Bud, symbolizing the bud of lotus, while the second Lotus was known as the Heaven Piercing Blooming Lotus, representing the blossoming of his skills and capabilities. With each stage building upon the last, Sin couldn't help but feel a surge of determination to unlock the secrets of the Silver Lotus and continue his growth as a formidable warrior except his ability of Obito. He just wanted make this power as backup, if someday he lost his ability of Narutoverse he could use this power.

Sin inquired about the specific capabilities and functions possessed by Silver Lotus. In response, a pleasant smile graced her lips as she instructed him to remain rooted in his current position, assuring him that her forthcoming assault would be targeted solely at her, with no intent to inflict harm upon his physical form. Sin reciprocated this trust with a steadfast expression, affirming his commitment to comply with her request.

Athena extended her arm, holding the sharp spear firmly as she directed it towards him. With precise precision, she launched an attack, the tip of the spear making contact with his skin. However, to his surprise, he felt no pain or reaction from the strike. Perplexed, he wondered if this was merely a feint, a distraction to divert his attention from a more imminent attack. His thoughts raced as he contemplated the possibility of an ambush from behind. In an attempt to confirm his suspicions, he quickly turned his head, attempting to catch a glimpse of any potential threat looming in the shadows.

However, much to his astonishment and dismay, he found himself completely unable to turn his head and not even a single cm can be moved from the initial position. No matter how hard he exerted himself, his attempts to twist his neck proved futile. Puzzled and filled with a rush of thoughts, he couldn't help but wonder what on earth had happened to his body that would cause such a sudden and strange occurrence.

In a sudden realization, he recalls a crucial element in the game that serves as an additional attribute called stun. Astonishingly, Athena manages to stun him, leaving him immobilized. In a swift and desperate action, he taps into his inner reserves of chakra and attempts to break free from the paralyzing grasp, fighting against the constriction that holds his body captive. Despite his best efforts, he only manages to loosen himself ever so slightly from the grip, barely regaining control over his frozen form.

Upon witnessing this, Athena inquired about Sin's thoughts and emotions regarding the newfound power. Sin responded by expressing his astonishment and disbelief, as he had never once contemplated the possibility of such an extraordinary occurrence ever befalling him. This remarkable ability undoubtedly held immense strength and potential, leaving Sin in awe of its capabilities.

Athena proceeded to explain to him, "At my level of power, Silver Lotus has an absolute guarantee of stunning any user it is used against. However, there is a possibility that if a user possesses an overwhelming amount of power, they may be able to break free from my hold. Nevertheless, there is still a chance that the technique could be effective, ranging from 60% to 80%, depending on your exceptional talent and ability. If this was another person at your age they may require 1 year to raise his success rate to 10% to 20%, however, if its it may become 100% like me."
