Chapter 515: Sasori's Dollhouse
Kenichi knew that chakra had different nature transformations.
He even knew it very well, because he himself understood how to transform chakra nature.
So the question arose.
Kenichi pondered whether it was feasible to make chakra nature universally adaptable, meaning it could be used as any chakra attribute.
Kenichi felt it would be difficult.
Otherwise, there would have been no need for the Shinobi World to develop these unique chakra transformation methods.
One could even say that at the jonin level, mastering chakra nature transformation was something almost everyone had to learn.
Therefore, Kenichi believed that traditional chakra attributes probably could not be replaced by a single type of chakra.
Moreover, considering how Naruto's ninjutsu became more powerful and unique after mastering Six Paths Mode, and how his chakra attributes became more flexible, Kenichi thought this type of chakra should be one that could quickly transform into other chakra attributes.
"To give an example, if Lightning Release chakra is Sprite and Fire Release chakra is Coke, then their constituent elements are different, and the added ingredients are also different. But if I want to quickly make these things, then what I need is water. By adding different additives to water, I can make various flavored drinks. Chakra is the same. Did Six Paths Mode create a type of water? A base water from which different drinks can be quickly mixed?"
Kenichi felt that his idea had some possibility.
After all, the nature transformations between different chakra types were distinct.
For instance, Kaguya's Kekkei Mora, in a way, allowed her to freely transform chakra into any attribute she desired, very quickly and conveniently.
If that was the case, then the relationship between chakra nature transformation and Six Paths Mode could be understood.
In Kenichi's view, creating a universal chakra was simply too difficult.
The natures of different attribute chakras varied greatly.
For example, ordinary ninja could not use Lightning Release chakra in a Great Fireball Technique.
It would not succeed.
If the attributes present in chakra determined different types of ninjutsu, then these ninjutsu were essentially adjusted based on those chakra attributes in order to be effective.
Therefore, it was almost impossible to create a chakra that could be used for different ninjutsu regardless of how it was taken out.
Even Sage Mode chakra, at its essence, was still used to cast ninjutsu based on the attributes of Sage Mode chakra itself.
"So, if that's the case, I only need to find the commonalities between different attribute chakras. Starting from that commonality, perhaps I can create the original chakra I need. Then I'll be able to achieve rapid chakra attribute transformation, and perhaps even master Yin-Yang Release at the same time."
Kenichi mused, feeling that his idea was very plausible.
As long as he could find the commonalities between different attribute chakras, Kenichi could use that to create a fundamental chakra.
And that chakra might be the key to Six Paths Mode.
Moreover, compressing such fundamental chakra into cells could also elevate Kenichi's combat power to its highest point, because he could instantly transform the chakra within his body into any attribute.
However, thinking about the commonalities in the attire of Six Paths Madara and the Sage of Six Paths, Kenichi felt that the Otsutsuki Clan, like the Sage of Six Paths, probably had very special characteristics.
Their utilization and understanding of chakra were clearly superior to his.
Thinking of this, Kenichi activated his Mangekyo Sharingan and began to cast ninjutsu.
He used Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique, a very common but slightly more difficult ninjutsu to practice.
The key to this ninjutsu was binding the target with ropes to ensure the successful use of the Dragon Fire Technique.
However, Kenichi naturally did not need this ninjutsu to hit anyone.
He was merely using it to study the nature of Fire Release chakra.
Under the deconstruction of Kenichi's Mangekyo Sharingan, Kenichi saw what he wanted to see.
The shape of the chakra.
This was similar to the chakra fluctuations he had seen before in the Wilson cloud chamber, which proved that deconstruction was a very unique dojutsu.
Its combat power might not be very strong, but its analytical ability was indeed reliable.
Kenichi also took this opportunity to directly draw the shape of the Fire Release chakra.
Then, Kenichi recorded the chakra of other nature attributes one by one.
These chakra natures did not look particularly complex, but their shapes had clear differences, seemingly without any commonalities.
However, Kenichi did not lose heart and tried to continue using his ninjutsu.
But no matter how he looked, Kenichi could not find any similarities, which made him fall into deep thought.
Could his idea be flawed?
No, it should not be like that.
Kenichi thought of the Ten-Tails.
Tailed Beasts were made of chakra.
Although different Tailed Beasts specialized in different attribute chakras, not all Tailed Beasts were composed entirely of those chakras.
This meant Kenichi could study these Tailed Beasts and see what changes their chakra would undergo.
Thinking of this, Kenichi walked out of the Akatsuki's base.
The Akatsuki base was currently empty, a stark contrast to the lively Amegakure next door.
However, this was good.
Kenichi did not want the secret of the Gedo Statue to be discovered.
Although it would not be useful even if discovered.
Without the Rinnegan and vast chakra reserves, ordinary people would just consider the Gedo Statue a giant sculpture.
Kenichi looked at Amegakure, then stepped inside.
He wanted to see what kind of life Amegakure was living now.
And Kenichi was not in a hurry to research the Tailed Beasts.
After all, he knew which Tailed Beast he could study.
Previously, on the night of the Nine-Tails incident, Kenichi had obtained a small piece of Nine-Tails chakra, which was enough for his research.
Of course, if it was not enough, Kenichi could also go to Naruto and study chakra from him.
That would not be a big problem.
"But speaking of which, will Naruto and Sasuke's chakra be different?"
An interesting thought flashed through Kenichi's mind.
Naruto and Sasuke, as the reincarnations of the Sage of Six Paths' sons, were truly favored by destiny.
Moreover, with the Sage of Six Paths' help, they had mastered Six Paths Mode, meaning Six Paths Mode was something the Sage of Six Paths had thoroughly researched and was not a rare thing.
So, could Kenichi make a deal with the Sage of Six Paths and obtain Six Paths Mode?
This would save Kenichi a lot of time.
And Kenichi's current genes were a mixture of Sasuke and Hashirama, so Kenichi himself possessed the potential to activate Six Paths Mode.
However, after thinking about it, Kenichi still gave up on this idea.
The Sage of Six Paths had helped Sasuke and Naruto because they were the reincarnations of his sons.
But Kenichi had no relation to him and had even been trying to explore the mysteries of the Pure Land.
Kenichi did not believe he could get help from the Sage of Six Paths.
And frankly, even if the Sage of Six Paths were willing to help him, Kenichi would still have some misgivings in his heart.
Who knew what the Sage of Six Paths was thinking?
If the Sage of Six Paths played some trick on him, Kenichi would not even be able to cry.
"Rely on a mountain, and the mountain may collapse. Rely on people, and people may run. One must be strong oneself."
Kenichi shook his head.
Relying on others was not an option, especially when it came to matters of his own strength.
Kenichi did not want to borrow someone else's hand.
Anyway, he would research it himself first.
If he really could not figure anything out, then he would just use his cheat to solve it.
So Kenichi felt very confident.
In any case, it would take time for the Five-Tails to revive, so it was better to wait slowly.
This time could also be used to strengthen himself.
The only problem was the existence of Jigen, but Madara was dealing with Jigen, so Kenichi did not have to worry for now.
What he needed to do now was quickly improve his strength before Black Zetsu collected enough bones, build the hydrogen bomb, and then send Jigen a hydrogen bomb.
He wanted to see whether the Otsutsuki Clan had a way to deal with hydrogen bombs.
If not, then it could be used to deal with future Otsutsuki Clan members.
If they did, then it did not matter.
He had other weapons to use.
At this moment, Kenichi also entered Amegakure before him.
This place was no longer called Amegakure, but Amegakure City.
Because Amegakure was basically shrouded in rain all year round, it was constantly raining.
This also led to there not being many suitable crops for cultivation in this area.
After Kenichi announced the new system of the Land of Flame, many people left Amegakure City, but many also came.
However, these were all members of ninja families who had been sent there by lottery.
After all, few people would choose to live in a city where it often rained, where sunny days were rare, and where blankets might not dry even after being hung out for a month.
However, after arriving in Amegakure City, Kenichi also found that the people in the city seemed quite happy, communicating cheerfully.
Of course, some people did not look very happy.
Among them, Kenichi saw a relatively familiar person.
It was Sasori.
Kenichi was startled.
He had looked for Sasori before but could not find him, so Kenichi had not stayed there.
He could tell that Sasori seemed to have something on his mind and did not want to see him for the time being, so Kenichi did not bother him.
But he had not expected to see Sasori in Amegakure City.
When Kenichi saw Sasori, he was sitting in a small shop.
Kenichi glanced at the shop's name.
[Dollhouse]
Sasori seemed to be the sole owner here.
Kenichi was silent for a moment, then walked in.
Sasori noticed Kenichi.
A hint of panic and surprise appeared in his eyes, but he quickly returned to calm.
Sasori quietly looked at Kenichi.
"Sasori, I didn't expect you to open a dollhouse."
Kenichi smiled as he looked at Sasori.
Sasori quietly looked at Kenichi without speaking.
Kenichi could not help rubbing his face.
Sasori was indeed holding a grudge.
But then again, if it were Kenichi, he would not be in a good mood either.
However, Kenichi really had not expected Chiyo to be caught in the explosion.
And with the atomic bomb explosion, Kenichi could not have notified her in advance, could he?
But Sasori was also considered a good friend of Kenichi's, so Kenichi felt that he probably still needed to explain.
Although an explanation might not be effective, at least Kenichi needed to show that attitude.
"I don't blame you."
Sasori suddenly said this, and Kenichi was stunned.
He really had not expected Sasori to say that.
But this was good.
Kenichi did not want any unpleasantness with his friend.
It was best if this conflict could be resolved.
But looking at Sasori's calm demeanor, Kenichi always felt that he seemed to have other thoughts.
"Sasori, do you plan to keep this shop open forever?"
Kenichi looked at Sasori.
Then he noticed someone, or rather, a puppet, walking out from the inner room.
It was made in the likeness of Sasori's parents.
After that, an old woman walked out with a smile, showing a surprised look when she saw Kenichi before returning to the room.
Kenichi was stunned.
That person was Chiyo.
But Kenichi could naturally tell that this Chiyo was not real, but a puppet.
This meant Sasori had made his parents and grandmother into puppets?
This surprised Kenichi a little.
Kenichi also found that Sasori's puppet-making skills were becoming stronger and stronger.
The Chiyo just now had been able to give Kenichi a sense of realism, as if he were seeing a real person and not some puppet.
"Yes. But in the future, if you need me, I will still help you, Kenichi."
Sasori smiled as he looked at his parents.
Kenichi nodded in silence.
He felt that Sasori had woven a dream for himself.
A bewildering dream.
However, Sasori seemed to be deeply immersed in it, so Kenichi said nothing.
Everyone had the right to choose their own way of life.
