Chapter 104 - Ch 104. HIdden Benefits x True Benefits

After Ron stopped thinking, he looked at them, calmly waiting for their questions and responses.

Tsunade, inwardly, felt pleased. She looked at Kurama and said, "Yes, the chakra of higher quality infused with Yin and Yang nature, similar to tailed beasts, really is something else. Using the Nine-Tails' chakra feels incredible. Not only can it take physical form, but I can also manipulate it as naturally as if it were my own limbs. It's truly amazing."

From the side, Ay nodded, but questioned with slight skepticism, "Is that really so useful? Being able to manipulate chakra-like limbs? I remember Father surpassed the Eight-Tails in strength before, without this kind of chakra, and now, years later, it should be even easier, no?"

Ron understood both perspectives and replied, "Brother, it's not necessarily that tailed beast chakra is fundamentally better in quality than a high-level ninja's, like shadow-level ninjas. The key difference lies in its rich Yin-Yang nature. That nature allows it to form tailed beast coats chakra constructs that are not only highly defensive and offensive but also incredibly malleable. To the tailed beasts, this chakra is like an extension of their own bodies."

"If a ninja wants to do something similar, molding chakra like a limb, it requires a high degree of chakra control and talent, along with long and rigorous training. But with this new type of Yin-Yang chakra extraction, ordinary ninjas can start learning to control their chakra in that same way. It would still take time and training, but it's now a possibility."

"The most important benefit of this chakra isn't just mimicking tailed beasts. It's that this chakra is deeply tied to the user's body and soul. That connection allows much finer control of chakra, also making it easier to embed the results of training into one's being. The branding, the imprint of techniques, and the muscle memory of motion can all be recorded more effectively and become permanent, instinctual. This means that training in things like nature transformation or physical techniques can progress much faster, and eventually, even become as natural as inherited bloodline abilities."

He paused, then continued, "When we train in ninjutsu, genjutsu, nature transformation, or even taijutsu, we repeat the process over and over to condition our body and mind. Over time, this repetition becomes a muscle memory instinct and part of our chakra nature/bloodline. That's how ninjas can react instantly in battle. And the same is true for chakra transformation. You and I both learned Lightning Chakra Mode and lightning forging. In the beginning, we had to carefully guide our chakra, taking an entire day just to wash our entire bodies with thunder chakra. But now we can do it instantly and without injury."

"This is the essence of Lightning Chakra Mode. And in our family, this technique has been practiced for generations. It's engraved into our blood, which is why for us, it's like a hereditary trait, almost a bloodline limit. But for someone new, someone whose ancestors never practiced it, it can take them an entire day just to find the correct degree of thunder chakra to begin with. We see that often in the village."

"This new chakra, because of its body-soul connection, can help record and imprint those transformations and experiences directly into us more deeply and quicker. So, aside from greatly improving training speed, even newly learned techniques could eventually be performed instantly, without hand seals. Of course, for any of that to happen, the ninja needs to be strong enough to extract this chakra in the first place which requires strong control over the body and soul, which means they must at least be at the Jonin level."
