Spiritual Secret Technique

"Another mentor?"

"Who is it?"

"Could it be Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin? Is Minato Sensei going to teach me Sage Mode?"

Predicting that the Fourth Hokage might teach him the Sage Mode from Mount Myoboku, Yasuke couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement!

What is Sage Mode? It is considered one of the most powerful secret techniques in the Naruto world, second only to the kekkei genkai!

In the original storyline, Madara had the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, but what did Hashirama Senju use to counter him?

The answer is Sage Mode!

Similarly, in the original storyline, how did Naruto Uzumaki's strength improve so rapidly, allowing him to fight against the Six Paths of Pain, who defeated Jiraiya, with just a few days of training?

The answer is still Sage Mode!

If Yasuke could master the Sage Mode, even if he couldn't achieve the perfect Sage Mode like Hashirama Senju or Naruto Uzumaki, using it would still elevate his power from an ordinary Jonin to the pinnacle of the ninja world as a Kage-level powerhouse!

What a temptation!

Unfortunately, the thought of mastering Sage Mode and becoming a Kage-level powerhouse only excited Yasuke for a few seconds.

Soon, Yasuke realized something was off!

"This isn't right!"

"If Minato Sensei is planning to teach me Sage Mode, he wouldn't say 'on behalf of someone,' he should say 'on behalf of my sensei,' right?"

"After all, if you think about it, Jiraiya should be considered my grandmaster. Saying 'on behalf of someone' is too distant, isn't it?"

"Moreover"

As he thought about this, Yasuke's mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times, and he somberly thought:

"Moreover, during the Third Great Ninja War, Jiraiya had just started learning Sage Mode, and Minato Sensei hadn't even completed his Sage Mode training, right?"

"Sigh!"

"I was really daydreaming just now. I should just ask Minato Sensei what secret technique he intends to teach me!"

Unable to train in Sage Mode, Yasuke couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.

But as Yasuke had thought before, one must take one step at a time; trying to rush things could lead to setbacks!

Given that Yasuke had already made two leaps in progress with the accelerated training from the APP and the personal guidance from the Fourth Hokage, he shouldn't ask for too much. Stabilizing his strength and foundation, slowly breaking through limitations, and gradually climbing to the peak of Kage-level power was the true path.

In the world, many things taken as shortcuts can have their downsides unless you're the protagonist.

Yasuke didn't consider himself to have protagonist's luck, so he quickly came to terms with not being able to train in Sage Mode.

Besides, even if he couldn't learn Sage Mode from the Fourth Hokage, the Fourth Hokage still intended to teach Yasuke a new secret technique "on behalf of someone."

While Yasuke was silently anticipating what kind of secret technique the Fourth Hokage was preparing to teach him, the Fourth Hokage suddenly used the "Acceleration" technique and sprinted a hundred meters before returning to Yasuke's side, then asked, "Yasuke, do you see any difference between the secret technique I just used and the one you use?"

"No difference."

Having observed very carefully earlier, Yasuke shook his head and replied, "Minato Sensei, the secret technique you used just now is basically the same as the one I use, even the speed increase is similar."

"That's right, Yasuke. Actually, this is the limit of the secret technique I developed."

Hearing Yasuke's reply, the Fourth Hokage smiled slightly. Seeing Yasuke frowning, he patiently explained, "Yasuke, Uncle Nara told me about you requesting chakra test papers. And judging by your mastery of the secret techniques I developed, you must have completed the nature transformation of wind attribute chakra."

"Achieving wind attribute chakra nature transformation at such a young age, Yasuke, you truly are talented and remarkable."

"But do you know that the nature transformation of wind attribute chakra is not limited to one extreme?"

"When you make another breakthrough based on understanding the nature transformation of wind attribute chakra, your perception of 'wind' will elevate to another level, like this!"

After speaking, the Fourth Hokage used the "Acceleration" technique again, sprinting a hundred meters in front of Yasuke.

This time, when the Fourth Hokage used the "Acceleration" technique, Yasuke, using his sense of spiritual energy, only noticed that the Fourth Hokage was channeling more chakra. But when Yasuke used his wind sense to feel the Fourth Hokage's "Acceleration" technique, a flash of realization appeared in Yasuke's eyes!

"So this is the true detail of Minato Sensei's secret technique. I was really foolish!"

"Using spiritual energy to sense it only made me aware that Minato increased his chakra usage. But if I use wind sense, I can discover the subtle changes in Minato's technique!"

"Interesting. Initially, Minato's 'Acceleration' technique involves integrating wind attribute chakra into the 'wind' to speed up his movement. But now, Minato Sensei's 'Acceleration' technique involves not just integrating but also surpassing the 'wind.' What a profound understanding!"

"If it were me, could I achieve the same surpassing 'wind' like Minato Sensei?"

Reflecting deeply, Yasuke couldn't help but feel disheartened.

Because the Fourth Hokage's understanding of 'wind' was beyond Yasuke's comprehension.

If given two or three years to exclusively understand the applications of wind attribute chakra, without any other training, Yasuke felt he might catch up to the Fourth Hokage's level.

But dedicating such time for this kind of training seemed to have its drawbacks.

Besides, Yasuke intended to be an all-around ninja; spending years solely on understanding 'wind' was less beneficial compared to seeking comprehensive breakthroughs that could enhance his overall strength.

However, the Fourth Hokage seemed to understand Yasuke's dilemma. Just as Yasuke was about to speak and politely refuse the focused training on 'wind,' the Fourth Hokage, while smiling, patted Yasuke's head and said, "Yasuke, I understand your difficulties, so I didn't plan to have you give up other training to focus solely on understanding wind attribute chakra."

"To be honest, the only reason I reached this level was with the help of a benefactor. Without the secret technique I plan to teach you, no matter how talented someone is, they couldn't reach this level alone. So, Yasuke, as long as you practice the secret technique I will teach you every day, while balancing your other training, with your talent, I believe it will only take you a little over a year to surpass my understanding of wind attribute chakra."

"Now, let's talk about the secret technique I plan to teach you!"

As he spoke, Yasuke suddenly noticed a touch of tenderness in the Fourth Hokage's eyes.

Then, as Yasuke was silently curious about who the person that taught the Fourth Hokage the secret technique was, the Fourth Hokage directly revealed the answer, smiling:

"Yasuke, the person who taught me the secret technique is actually your sensei's wife, Kushina Uzumaki."

"And the secret technique I will teach you on her behalf is a secret technique of the Uzumaki clan!"

"It is called, the Spiritual Secret Technique!"
