Chapter 22.

After trying Rasengan to no avail. I tried to create Chidori of Kakashi since i had Lightning and wind nature. Currently i was mainly trying to transform my chakra into lightning simply because it was my favorite once i had a grasp on my lightning chakra then i will refine the wind type chakra and start to work on other type of chakra's whenever the need arise.

Comparing to Rasengan Chidori was quite easy. Since i had learned a Lightning which is helpful for learning it named 'Lightning Release : Electron Technique' since it creates a crackling, sparkling sphere of yellow electricity in the user's hand which is very similar to chidori. But the chidori contains a very high level of concentrated chakra which needsa very high level of chakra control and is quite similar to rasengan my thoughts are that Kakashi must have tried to add his lightning chakra into it but failed which led him to develop chidori.

Chidori uses large amount of lightning chakra around he hands making it seem like blade which requires your hand to be powerful enough to handle, my current muscle upgrade has let me deal with this, the biggest drawback is not this but the fact that the user moves at their target so fast that it causes a tunnel vision like effect for them. Similar to when i started the practice of body flicker where i couldn't perceive anything and only moved forward at fast speed. I will be able to handle it in the future once my kenjutsu is finished and my cell development reaches limit. This not at all disappoints me because this jutsu is quick very for some people for to even comprehend before they are killed.

Leaving the Chidori aside I have developed many different Lightning style jutsu in this year comparable to some Elite Chunins.

Some of them are :

1. Lightning Clone Technique which is similar to shadow clone but when it disappears if in contact with the target gives it a lightning attack and tries to paralyze. You won't be able to get the memory this is a special method only for the shadow clone developed by Nidaime no one knows its mechanics and no one cares.

2. Static Strings technique which creates strings of electricity which can be used physically as strings or for sending small electric attacks. The first time i read this jutsu it reminded me the scene of the fight between Orochimara and Sasuke were he used the strings to contain him and then fired a Great Fireball Jutsu at him letting shed his body and replace a new one. A very practical skill.

3. Current Transfer Skill this technique creates electricity in hands and transfers it to to any weapon in your hand. I trained this jutsu specifically for training my second phase of 'Thunder Sword Art'. It was very helpful.

4. Lightning Bolt Technique it is very simple technique in which the user creates small bolts of lightning from his hands and fires towards the target. A very useful spell for surprise and ranged attack.

5. Lightning Blade technique It allows the user to charge chakra in the form of electricity, then the chakra eventually works up to the fingers, where a blade of electricity is formed between your Index and middle finger. The disadvatage is you can't throw it since it will dissipate when released as you have to continuously place chakra into the blade. I practiced this jutsu to help me develop Raikiri. Although i'm not yet able to perform it but i've got a gist on the direction i need to move.

6. Lightning Blast Technique which is an upgraded version of Lightning Bolt, this jutsu works the same way except now it is a continuous blast of electricity. The blast is not lethal enough nut is still gives the user enough time to try his killer move.

This is what brother Shikaku said in one of his spar match against me. I asked him to appraise me before submitting form for my graduation. Although bored in the academy but still this is not the reason enough for me to play with my life. As i knew that there were monsters lurking in this world. And that's how he played a match with me.

'It was the most boring match i had ever played.' why you ask, simply because i was thrashed but not because i wasn't powerful enough but because that was match were you had to use your brain and i don't think anyone can beat a Nara in a mind game. A Nara who is the man who was responsible for all the strategies in the Shinobi alliance. From this you should understand his prowess in strategies. Well although thrashed he still told me that i should be able to contend with some elite chunins but you don't have much experience, you should graduate.

' He is getting ahead of himself although he is a genius but he still does not understand that there are many geniuses in this world, but those who can live to see the glory are very low in number. Hopefully he can learn this before any disaster happens.' he thought as he sighed.

Next Day i submitted my Form, after that i headed towards the hokage office as i wanted to request something from him.

Reaching the office i Knocked and waited for him to reply. After a minute he said enter.

Entering the office for the first time i looked around looking at the pictures of the previous Hokage's and Grandpa. He was sitting behind a large pile of papers looking at me as i watched the surrounding. Retracting my gaze i walked towards him and said solemly.

"I have submitted my form for graduation."

"Good. So what can i do for you." he asked curiously at why i was so serious.

Ignoring his curiosity i continued " I want my graduation test to be a match against a Chunin which if won i graduate else going back to academy for another match."

Now he looked seriously at me while looking to find something from my body acting like how a Hokage he is.

" And i want Jiraiya who has recently returned to be the judge." I told him and waited him to say something.

Finding what he wanted he retracted his serious gaze once again putting a curious expression he asked.

"Why Jiraiya? Why not Orochimaru. He is a genius as everybody knows and has large knowledge of jutsu."

"Orochimaru although sennin similar to Jiraiya but he places most of his time on learning jutsu whereas i heard Jiraiya perfects the Jutsu he learns and make it his own. As well he is better at battle then the other two Sennins and i want to be a battle master." I said seriously.

' Ohh! no way in hell am i going to be apprentice of Orochimaru that maniac i don't know when he will place a curse mark or make me do some experiments with him like Anko in canon. Although i don't think he has started by now or not but i don't want to have anything with him. Atleat i reach a level where i can safely face him and retreat.' I thought while waiting for his reply.

"Well i approve if you can defeat the Chunin you can graduate. While the apprentice thing depends on Jiraiya. He will see whether you can fulfill his requirements or not," he said as he replied seriously.

"Oh grandpa with you he will surely accept my request." I said as i continud to retreat.

"And you shouldn't leave that crystall balls cushion at the desk next time you let someone in." I continued as i escaped as i heard a roar.

"What did you say. BRAT." I chuckled as i escaped.
