Chapter 556 Making the Flying Thunder God Technique More Suitable for Himself

Naruto is awake, Naruto is crying!

Just then, Sasuke Uchiha walked into the room carrying a bowl of porridge. He placed the bowl on the table and gently wiped away the tears on Naruto's face.

"It was me! If it weren't for me, Father and Mother wouldn't have died!"

"No, it's not your fault, don't think like that." Sasuke's movements were unusually gentle. "It's all those hateful demons! Eat something, you've been unconscious for days and nights."

Naruto didn't have much of an appetite right now; he just hung his head and slowly processed what was going on.

After a long time, he sat there for a day and a night, finally managing to suppress the complex emotions surging within him.

The next day, he trained with his friends again, and his demeanor remained as sunny as ever.

"Is Naruto really alright?" Sakura Haruno, with her broad forehead, turned to look at the excited Naruto while repeatedly trying to revive a fish, her heart filled with worry.

Ino Yamanaka gave an affirmative answer: "It's alright, after all, he's the chosen one!"

"But speaking of which, have you noticed that Naruto has become much more handsome and is no longer as silly as before?"

"Really? I didn't notice." Sakura Haruno followed her gaze and suddenly realized that the boy in the sunlight was actually quite dazzling.

"Maybe...that's not bad either."

"What are you talking about?" Yamanaka Ino suddenly asked.

"It's nothing, let's train together." Sakura Haruno shook her head, shaking off those inexplicable thoughts in her mind.

-

The Empire of Taki.

Aburame Shisei sat cross-legged in the center of the training field, his eyes closed, surrounded by a swarm of black insects as fine as dust.

These insects fly along specific trajectories, eventually forming a faint, unique coordinate system in the sky.

The reason for this is that Shisei Aburame's spatial talent was originally average. Even after undergoing genetic modification and spiritual injection, he still found it difficult to directly sketch abstract concepts in his mind.

Can you imagine? Space is actually a curved surface.

Moreover, the lines within the space are not continuous, and may even appear as dots. They may also rotate, twist, or collapse, further affecting the trajectory of energy and light.

In addition, due to the thinking habits that Aburame Shisei had developed since childhood, he could not act on his feelings and could only rely on advanced physics and advanced mathematics to break down and analyze the problem layer by layer; those insects were his draft paper when he deduced and analyzed the problem.

Sure enough, after half a year, he finally mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique and even completely changed its appearance.

While the efforts of several physicists were also involved, it cannot be denied that their understanding of ninjutsu was insufficient, requiring assistance from top geniuses like him and Orochimaru.

The difficulty of the technique has also changed completely: originally, as long as the summoning coordinates were drawn accurately and the perception was in place, it could be performed; now the difficulty has increased exponentially, and it has long since changed from a single ninjutsu to a subject, or even a whole set of spatial technique theories.

This doesn't feel like training in ninjutsu; it feels more like starting from the bottom and gradually refining and perfecting the complete system of space-time ninjutsu.

Even Orochimaru and others believe that space-time ninjutsu may one day become an independent major branch of ninjutsu, just like soul-based ninjutsu.

Before long, a seemingly insignificant black beetle fluttered its wings between his index fingers.

The next second, Zhicheng's figure disappeared from his original spot and silently appeared behind the target at the other end of the training field.

He held a specially made thin anchor between two fingers of his right hand.

No one could imagine that this thing was originally made by layering multiple insect wings.

"Teleportation successful." Aburame Shisei looked down at his current location, then back at the spot where he had been meditating, a slight smile playing on his lips. "It's not perfect, but at least..."

He formed a hand seal again, simply raising two fingers without using the insect swarm as a medium; but this time, his figure did not disappear.

"Media is still indispensable."

Aburame Shisei muttered to himself, "Without pre-positioning the insects, we can't achieve our target location. And... at our current speed, it's not even close to teleportation; it's more like rapid movement."

He picked up the medium again; the thin sheet was covered with layers of intricate patterns, resembling a sophisticated circuit diagram.

To be honest, this thing wasn't made by him, nor was it even Orochimaru's doing; it came from a physicist who had absolutely no talent for ninjutsu.

This person was one of the scientists he had expended resources to provide experimental materials for and support, and unexpectedly, he has come in very handy today.

Moreover, Aburame Shisei had thoroughly mastered the theory and manufacturing plan proposed by that person in six months. So, from a theoretical point of view, it was no different from his own invention.

Even most of the intelligent people in the base have mastered the relevant principles, and only a small number of people are still using the original version of Flying Thunder God.

Many more were turned away, not because their bodies couldn't adapt to their spatial talents, but because their brains weren't suited to spatial ninjutsu.

The Flying Thunder God Technique: It should now be called the discipline of space travel.

This space-time ninjutsu, which countless ninjas have dreamed of, can finally be broken down into steps for systematic learning, allowing people to master and use it more safely.

Although the flaws are quite obvious and require insects as a medium, for Shigeaki Aburame now, this has made up for his last shortcoming.

After all, he doesn't need this technique to cause much damage; it's enough to prevent the enemy from escaping when chasing them. As for attack and defense methods, he has no shortage of them.

clap clap clap!

Orochimaru applauded from afar, "Shicheng-kun, I never imagined that a space-time ninjutsu could contain so much vast knowledge. It's easy to imagine how much trickery the Second Hokage used back then. However, we have now thoroughly studied it, and it is no longer the kind of ninjutsu that we only know how to use but not how it works."

"I believe that in the future, more and more people, even those without talent in this area, will be able to create the corresponding instruments for space teleportation."

"That is indeed possible, but the prerequisite is the availability of omnipotent energy," Aburame Shisei nodded in response.

"Universal energy!" Orochimaru fell silent for a while. In fact, for a long time, he had been thinking about just how overpowered chakra really was.

Whenever something seems impossible, all sorts of wishful thinking can be realized.

"Therefore, the more knowledge one gains, the more one becomes trapped in the cage of knowledge, and from then on, one tirelessly pursues the so-called truth at the very bottom."

He, Yu Nuzhicheng, is a pragmatist. He doesn't care so much about why or what to do. As long as the current situation can be explained and utilized, that's enough.

Just then, a figure appeared beside him in the distance. "Sir, I need your help!"
