Upon hearing Shinji's words, many disciples had a look of sudden realization.
Rather than saying it's granted by will, it's more accurate to say that one's Yang Chakra undergoes a qualitative change due to one's own will. It's like a different kind of Nature Transformation.
"Oh, isn't that the same as practicing other elemental Nature Transformations?" Naruto said, hitting his fist into his palm.
"You could say that." Seeing Naruto summarize it that way, Shinji could only nod.
"However, don't fully apply past experiences to this jutsu."
Saying this, Shinji raised his left hand, and green Chakra glowed on it.
Gesturing for Naruto and the others to watch him, Shinji then began to speak, "Mystical Palm Technique also requires the use of Yang Chakra, but it can only be used to heal physical injuries. However, Yang Release has a much wider range of applications."
"Can you tell me the difference between them?"
Naruto and the others fell silent upon hearing this, all furrowing their brows in thought.
"Sensei!" Choji finally raised his hand after a while, calling out.
"Choji, tell us." Shinji nodded, encouraging Choji.
"Yang Release is like a form of energy, and Mystical Palm Technique requires this energy to be activated, but Yang Release is not limited to just the healing of Mystical Palm Technique."
"Just like my clan's Multi-Size Technique, it can be used for combat and body enhancement, so the essence of Yang Release is more akin to life force, the origin of body enhancement."
"And Mystical Palm Technique is a technique that utilizes Yang Chakra."
Clap, clap, clap—
Shinji clapped his hands, it was not easy for Choji to say these words.
Didn't you see even Naruto, who was beside him, looking at Choji as if he had seen a ghost?
"Choji is right, these two are not parallel relationships, but rather the difference between basic energy and specific application."
"Mystical Palm Technique cannot exist without Yang Release, but Yang Release is far more than just Mystical Palm Technique."
"Yang Release Chakra Armor, in the end, is a manifestation of one's own body's energy and will."
After explaining, Shinji began to teach Naruto and Choji how to perform Yang Release cleansing. No matter how much he explained, it was better to let Naruto and Choji experience it for themselves, practice leads to true understanding.
As Naruto and Choji began to sit cross-legged and started the cleansing as Shinji instructed, the expressions on both their faces changed at the same time, clearly indicating the pain of the cleansing.
Shinji slowly released his Yang Chakra to nourish them, his voice calm. "Hold on. How long you can endure the first cleansing will determine the extent to which you can utilize Yang Release in the future."
Shinji's words were not an exaggeration. If they couldn't endure the first time and complete the full internal circulation, then when they performed the second cleansing, it would mean that Naruto and Choji would have to start over.
However, considering Naruto and Choji's age, Shinji could only watch over them from the side, allowing them to endure a bit longer.
Hearing Shinji's explanation, coupled with the warm sensation from above their heads, Naruto and Choji calmed down. With their teacher protecting them, there was no reason to retreat now because of a little pain.
Their performance greatly satisfied Shinji. As long as they could persevere, there was a possibility of learning it.
Yang Release Chakra Armor is not difficult to learn. It's easy to get started, but to master it, it's calculated in years.
Shinji purely relied on the progress display to persevere. Don't underestimate such a progress display, it's like clearing a game.
Is it easier to play when you can see the specific progress? Or is it easier to work hard with no clue at all?
It wasn't until evening that Choji was the first to wake up. His physique was more compatible with Yang Chakra due to his practice of his clan's secret techniques, so Shinji wasn't surprised.
On the other hand, Shinji noticed that Nine-Tails inside Naruto had begun to help Naruto overcome it together.
Inside the sealed space.
"Kurama, why did you suddenly decide to help me?" Naruto looked at Nine-Tails inside the cage with a suspicious expression.
This tsundere fox, although he had already exchanged a few words with him, this was the first time he had directly offered help today.
"Brat! I just hope that my Jinchuriki won't be so weak." Kurama glared at Naruto in annoyance, mumbling.
Naruto, hearing this explanation, still felt strange, but he didn't ask any more questions.
After all, his teacher had said that some things, if you ask too many questions, it becomes impolite.
This brat's master is truly a monster.
Kurama, seeing that Naruto didn't press for answers, lay back down.
With its insight, how could it not know that Shinji's application of Yang Release was absolutely unique in the Ninja World?
Although he still didn't completely trust Naruto, Naruto's words last time had shocked it. Moreover, to find the person who controlled it back then, Naruto had to become stronger.
"This… this is just for my own goals, it's not because of this brat."
The soft whisper made Naruto, who was originally sitting cross-legged, frown, but he didn't stop the cleansing process.
By the time Naruto stopped his training, the moon was already high in the sky.
Shikamaru and the others were seated beside him, and they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Naruto open his eyes.
"So relieving!" Naruto shouted, feeling as if he had broken free from restraints. He felt exceptionally light.
Just as he was about to stand up, he felt his legs go soft.
Shinji supported Naruto, smiling as he said, "You've been cleansing for almost ten hours. Your legs can't move right now."
Saying this, Shinji carried Naruto on his back and said to everyone, "Let's go to Choji's house for a medicinal bath to relieve the fatigue in your Chakra pathways."
Shikamaru and the others nodded at this, as it was their usual routine.
After all, only at Choji's house, due to his size, the bathing place was not a bathtub but a public bathhouse.
The next day, Shinji arranged for Naruto and Choji to continue their cleansing.
As for Shikamaru and the others, they continued their physical training. For them now, physical conditioning was their daily training.
As for Sasuke, Shinji took him alone through the forest. Today, he planned to teach Sasuke Chidori.
"Sasuke, attack me at your fastest speed."
Hearing this, Sasuke nodded, then Chakra erupted from his feet, and he quickly charged towards Shinji.
Not bad.
Shinji nodded when he saw Sasuke's speed.
Compared to before, Sasuke was definitely much faster now. Moreover, the weights on his feet should have increased as well.
Shinji looked at the weights on Sasuke's feet, and he effortlessly dodged his attack, while also grabbing his ankle. He flung him away.
Whoosh—
Sasuke executed a beautiful flip, neutralizing Shinji's force, and landed steadily on the ground.
