Chapter 59

Akira didn't dwell on her success of bringing her lightning attribute techniques to a far greater height than before but focused the next three months on mastering the sage arts and natural chakra.

Unlike normal chakra, Akira found out that the natural chakra is tyrannical, to say the least. According to the Lord of Crows Karesegawa, natural chakra is the chakra chakra of the world, which in a way explains why trying to absorb more than one can handle will have the effect of turning into trees.

After all, if a normal shinobi tried to absorb her own chakra, he would succumb under her killing intent that was submerged within her spiritual energy, transforming him into a killing weapon of madness so it's quite natural that attempting to master the natural energy will have its own consequences.

Akira was slightly surprised about the fact that the threat was to become a tree, but she had already mastered all the perquisites conditions, so she had gone into deep meditation.

The crow's sage arts consist of using spiritual energy that was refined thanks to the spiritual crow condensation technique to fully visualize her form as a crow.

The difference between this one and all other crows that she had made before is that the latter will need her chakra for a whole month.

Akira needed to constantly feed her chakra to the crow while transforming it in her image.

Though the requirements seem harsh, the fact is the crow doesn't necessarily have to be one hundred percent like herself. A small semblance will suffice. The closer and more realistic the crow's form to her, the better will be the benefits of natural energy to her.

The challenge will be to maintain the crow as she nourishes her with her chakra without distorting the image and cracking her from over transferring chakra.

Akira didn't find a lot of trouble with this step, enabling her to make a simple looking jet black crow with black and pupils.

The next step is to use the crow to feel the killing intent in the land.

Akira was puzzled for a moment before understanding the difference between this step and the first trial for her here. She only used her spiritual energy while now she is using her chakra in the form of a crow to feel the land.

In Akira's mindscape, the crow that she visualized was flying under the pitch-black sky made from thunder clouds, his wings became stronger, and their dark color looked more realistic, results of multiple attempts with a close success.

it took Akira two months to transform her in an extremely realistic crow, and with it, a black marking that spread from her face to her arms and legs, signifying her success at mastering the sage arts.

" As I expected, you completely have mastered the sage arts, and all the techniques that we crows use that come with it. You should feel the benefit now. As long as the visualized crow remains, you will only need ten seconds to go in sage mode, and you won't have to focus on that. The closer your visualized crow is to your image, the greater the amount of natural chakra that you can absorb and the less tattoos and marking you will have in your body. I look forward to seeing your life, Akira. " At the end of his speech, Karesegawa flew in the air, expecting the benefits that Akira will bring yet not making voice of it.

He knows what kind of person she is, so he chooses not to inform her of any of his expectations and whiches, but silently observes her actions and learns from her ways.

Akira understood the decision that Karesegawa had made and his silent support for her even though he doesn't owe her anything, yet she chooses to remember it.

For Akira, the crows are a tribe with no taboo, which really hit her sweet spot. They only talk with business and benefits.

They invested in her, and she will simply help them grow stronger techniques as repayment.

During the time Akira was training, she periodically made her shadow clone stay in the village chief's house, play a doctor, and even welcome and heal other people who could make it to her.

As for Hana, she still didn't fuck her but caused her personal shyness and self blame to go higher and higher by putting herself in several misandertanding and having her realize it was a misunderstanding letter on.

Naturally, she let some summoned crows with low chakra and good concealment to hide in different strategically and uncenspecious locations to keep track of all passing villagers and shinobi.

Without forgetting to have a shadow clone spy through the information that the implanted root ninja will unconsciously transmit.

three days later, after Akira completed her training, she had the good news that all three of the sannin are out of Konoha.

Akira decided to begin her plan tonight.
