Chapter 082.2: The New Rankings, the Ninjutsu List Unveiled!!!

[Third Tsuchikage: Since Kekkei Genkai doesn't count as Ninjutsu, does that mean my Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique can't make it onto the list?]

[Mei Terumī: What a pity, my Lava Release could have made it onto the list. I wonder if any of my other Ninjutsu can make it.]

[Tobirama Senju: My Flying Thunder God Technique is sure to be ranked highly!]

[Danzo: Why are Dojutsu excluded?]

[Fourth Raikage: Haha, this is a Ninjutsu ranking. Dojutsu already has its own separate list. If they were included here too, that would be strange!]

[Fourth Hokage: Flying Thunder God will definitely make it onto the list, but the Second Hokage's version will surely outrank mine. I bet only his Flying Thunder God Technique will make it.]

[Third Hokage: There are many powerful Ninjutsu in the Shinobi World. It seems that only A-rank Ninjutsu or higher will make it onto the list, and they'll all be A-rank Ninjutsu used by top-tier shinobi. It's possible that a single shinobi might have multiple Ninjutsu on the list!]

[Kakashi Hatake: For weaker shinobi, there's no chance of making the list at all!]

[Madara Uchiha: If there's any qualification for making the list, it's that only we strong shinobi are qualified to be on it!!!]

[Hashirama Senju: Anyway, some of my other techniques are sure to make it onto the list!]

Soon, the Ninjutsu ranking began to be revealed, starting with the 100th place.

[100th Ninjutsu: Chidori, User: Kakashi Hatake]

The 100th place was Kakashi's Chidori, a very impressive A-rank Ninjutsu!

[Might Guy: Oh my gosh, Kakashi's Chidori only ranks 100th! This Ninjutsu ranking is really competitive!]

[Tsunade: It's a bit surprising, but when you think about it, it makes sense. There are so many powerful Ninjutsu in the Shinobi World, each one incredibly strong. It depends on who the user is. Since Kakashi created Chidori, the competition for this technique wasn't too fierce, so it managed to make the list. Otherwise, it might not have made it at all. Getting onto the Ninjutsu ranking is harder than we imagined; without Kage-level strength, you probably can't even get one technique on the list.]

[Temari: I thought I might have one or two Ninjutsu that could make the list, but now it seems there's no hope!]

[Might Guy: Haha, I'm skilled in Taijutsu, but Taijutsu can't compare to the Ninjutsu ranking! As for my Ninjutsu, they're too weak; there's no chance!]

[Naruto Uzumaki: My Rasengan should make it onto the list!]

[Kakashi Hatake: Naruto, forget about your Rasengan. Can it be stronger than your dad's?]

[Naruto Uzumaki: Haha, you're right, my dad also knew Rasengan! It seems there's no hope for me!]

At that moment, the 99th Ninjutsu was revealed.

[99th Ninjutsu: Water Release: Great Shark Bullet Technique, User: Kisame Hoshigaki]

[Kisame Hoshigaki: What? My Great Shark Bullet Technique is only ranked 99th? Are you kidding me!]

[Itachi Uchiha: Kisame, stay calm. It's good enough to make it onto the list at all!]

[Hidan: Kisame's Water Release is impressive, but his ranking isn't great. It's really tough to make it onto the Ninjutsu ranking!]

[Fourth Raikage: In the Shinobi World, Ninjutsu is the primary focus. Shinobi train in Ninjutsu, and to stand out in this field, you must be among the elite, the strongest of the Kage-level shinobi!]

One after another, famous Ninjutsu were revealed, all used by well-known and powerful shinobi.

Before long, the Ninjutsu ranking had reached the top 50. At this point, every revealed Ninjutsu was either an S-rank technique, a powerful forbidden technique, or a mighty Senjutsu. This time, Senjutsu was also included in the Ninjutsu category.

[49th Ninjutsu: Lightning Cutter, User: Kakashi Hatake]

Lightning Cutter is an S-rank Ninjutsu created by Kakashi, and Kakashi is indeed very strong. However, even so, Lightning Cutter only ranked 49th.

[Might Guy: Kakashi, I thought your Lightning Cutter would rank in the top 30, but it only made it to 49th!]

[Kakashi Hatake: I'm already very satisfied. After all, I got two Ninjutsu on the list!]

[Third Tsuchikage: The main reason Kakashi has two Ninjutsu on the list is that he created both of them. Otherwise, he wouldn't occupy two spots.]

[Hashirama Senju: Some Ninjutsu are created by others. Even if you reach Kage-level strength, you might not be able to make it onto the Ninjutsu ranking!]

[Zabuza Momochi: Sigh, all my Ninjutsu are standard techniques from the Hidden Mist Village, so it looks like none of them will make the list. Haku's Ice Release is excellent, but unfortunately, Haku's strength isn't high enough, so his Ninjutsu won't make the list either!]

[Mei Terumī: At least one of my Water Release Ninjutsu made it onto the list! Unfortunately, the rest probably won't make it. Previous Mizukage and the Second Hokage were all masters of Water Release Ninjutsu, so many of my techniques can't compete with theirs.]

Soon, the 48th Ninjutsu was revealed.

[48th Ninjutsu: Water Prison Shark Dance Technique, User: Kisame Hoshigaki]

[Fourth Raikage: Kisame has another Ninjutsu on the list!]

[Kisame Hoshigaki: Haha, not bad, I got another one on the list! As expected!]

[Hidan: I'm jealous of Kisame. Unfortunately, my techniques don't count as Ninjutsu, so there's no way for me to make it onto the list this time!]

Next, the 47th Ninjutsu was revealed, which was Tobirama Senju's Water Release: Heavenly Weeping!

[Hashirama Senju: My Water Release: Heavenly Weeping is incredibly powerful, yet it only ranks 47th!]

[Third Hokage: Lord Hashirama, it's good to make the list at all. Don't worry too much about the ranking; there are still other Ninjutsu that will make it!]

[Hashirama Senju: Yes, making the list is good enough. Many shinobi are strong, but they might not make it onto the list!]

Then, the 46th Ninjutsu was revealed. This time, it was Orochimaru's technique.

[46th Ninjutsu: Eight-Headed Serpent Technique, User: Orochimaru]

As one technique after another was revealed, many shinobi began to feel tense.

Then, the Fourth Hokage's Rasengan was revealed, ranking 45th on the list. The Rasengan is known for its great power and ease of use. Though not an S-rank jutsu, its power can increase infinitely with more chakra, making it extremely fearsome. That's why it earned a relatively high rank.

[44th on the Jutsu Ranking: Creation Rebirth, User: Tsunade]

This jutsu is one of Tsunade's signature techniques and her trump card, so its 44th place on the list is well-deserved.

Next, the jutsu of various Kage from different villages were announced, showcasing many powerful techniques.

Soon, the list reached the 30th spot.

[30th on the Jutsu Ranking: Desert Layered Imperial Funeral Seal, User: Gaara]

[Temari: Hahaha, Gaara is amazing! One of his jutsu made it to 30th on the list!]

[Deidara: How could Gaara's jutsu rank so high? Has this kid grown that quickly?]

[Fourth Raikage A: The Fifth Kazekage Gaara is not to be underestimated. I admit, I underestimated him!]

[Uzumaki Naruto: Gaara is awesome!]

[Tsunade: The Fifth Kazekage has indeed grown rapidly. The fact that this jutsu ranks 30th shows that the Golden List recognizes its power.]

[Fourth Kazekage: Gaara, your father is proud of you!]

"To think my Desert Layered Imperial Funeral Seal ranks 30th... I probably achieved this thanks to the power of Star Sand. Using Star Sand in this jutsu must have made it so terrifying that it earned this spot!" Gaara thought to himself.

After Gaara's jutsu was announced, it was time for another of Orochimaru's techniques to make the list.

[29th on the Jutsu Ranking: Living Corpse Reincarnation, User: Orochimaru]

Orochimaru was quite dissatisfied with this ranking.

"This jutsu is my masterpiece, one I've researched for years, and it only ranks 29th? This technique allows me to live forever! The Jutsu Ranking seriously underestimates my work!" Orochimaru muttered in frustration. However, since the Golden List placed it at 29th, he had to accept it.

Next, Tsunade's Yin Seal made the list, ranking 28th, which only deepened Orochimaru's discontent.

The 27th jutsu was Lady Chiyo's One's Own Life Reincarnation, a technique capable of reviving others at the cost of the user's life. Truly a fearsome jutsu.

The 26th jutsu on the list was Tobirama Senju's Reanimation Jutsu.

"Ah, the Jutsu Ranking placed the Second Hokage's Reanimation Jutsu on the list. That means my version of Reanimation Jutsu won't make it onto the list," Orochimaru muttered, feeling even more displeased. But then he remembered that the technique was originally created by the Second Hokage, so it was only fair he got the credit. Moreover, Tobirama Senju's Reanimation Jutsu was indeed more powerful than his own.
