Naruto: Escape From Konoha-Chapter 15: Exploring the Truth of Chakra

"It's almost time. Let's part ways here. If you stay any longer, someone might notice."

Shiraishi was concerned that his secret meeting with Ayane would be exposed, leading to thorough investigations not only of Ayane but also of himself.

It would undoubtedly be troublesome if things turned out that way.

"Don't worry, Shiraishi-kun. I've already awakened my kekkei genkai, and no one can approach this place without me noticing within a kilometer range. I've already searched the area before coming here."

As she said that, Ayane made a hand seal, the veins next to her eyes started to bulge, and her white pupils suddenly turned blue-white.

This was the Byakugan, the Kekkei Genkai of the Hyuga clan that had been passed down through generations.

Hyuga clan members who awakened the Byakugan can further enhance the power of their Gentle Fist, which is also inherited within the clan.

In addition to maximizing the power of the Gentle Fist, the Byakugan possesses various auxiliary abilities such as long-range vision, perspective, insight, and enhanced chakra release.

At present, Ayane's Byakugan allows her to have complete insight within a one-kilometer diameter. With the added ability of seeing through objects, no one can approach this place unnoticed within a one-kilometer radius.

Regardless of using a bunker or stealth techniques, Ayane's eyes would detect the meridian system in the human body. That's why she was confident that no one could silently approach this location.

While the Byakugan might not provide combat capabilities as formidable as the Uchiha's Sharingan, strategically, the value of the Byakugan far surpasses that of the Sharingan.

It can be said that as long as there are Byakugan users, Konoha has no need to worry about being attacked by enemies during war.

All enemy defenses and traps would become meaningless.

"Ayane, when did you awaken your eyes?" Shiraishi's eyes were filled with surprise.

Based on what he had learned, the probability of awakening the Byakugan was much higher than that of the Uchiha's Sharingan.

However, in general, the chances of the Hyuga clan members awakening their eyes were relatively low.

Ayane was only eight years old this year, yet she was able to awaken her eyes. It was evident that she possessed great talent.

"I awakened them not too long ago. I wanted to surprise you, Shiraishi-kun, so I didn't mention it earlier," Ayane replied with a smile, keeping her eyes open.

"I see." Shiraishi rubbed his chin and said, "In that case, we need to adjust our next plan and expedite the research process. Also, come to my house sometime, I'll conduct a thorough body examination for you."

He didn't want to miss out on such precious and unknown data.

"Although I know that Shiraishi-kun is conducting a legitimate experiment... um... You won't do anything strange to me, will you?" Ayane seemed skeptical of Shiraishi's character.

"I already told you, what are you thinking? You also agreed that it would be a legitimate experiment, right?" Shiraishi glanced at Ayane, feeling helpless.

"Even so... Shiraishi has touched my body before. He said it was for developing a scientific exercise method for me... After all, no one knows if it's true or not," Ayane said, smiling mischievously, her blue-white pupils revealing a hint of cunning.

Shiraishi didn't recall doing anything involving touching her entire body. Besides, Ayane had been fully clothed during the examination.

It was absurd to assume such things.

"Ayane, the more you talk, the more outrageous it gets... If my exercise method was truly ineffective, you wouldn't have just complained about it today... Anyway, I have important matters to attend to today."

"Just kidding. I'll find time to cooperate with you for the body examination, Shiraishi-kun. Goodbye for now."

"Alright, take care not to be discovered."

Watching Ayane depart in the opposite direction, Shiraishi put his hands in his pockets and slowly made his way back home. free webno vel

After Shiraishi's return, he began testing the blood collected by Ayane and analyzing its composition using instruments.

Even ordinary blood contains various qualities and components.

For instance, the blood of individuals from bloodline

clans and that of ordinary civilians have distinct characteristics.

Generally, individuals from bloodline clans possess more active blood, carrying a unique genetic factor that can be passed on to future generations.

Based on this, he concluded that chakra is the origin of everything.

He named this thesis "Exploring the Origin and Nature of Chakra."

He used chakra to manipulate their form and nature. They also fuse chakra in a manner related to its nature, which serves as a common prototype for Kekkei Genkai techniques.

Kekkei Genkai usually manifests as a specific abnormality in a part of the body due to the influence of chakra. This abnormality grants the affected part a powerful active factor and leads to changes in the individual's genes.

Through chakra's form, this special gene is inherited by the next generation, allowing them to naturally harness the power of their bloodline.

This is how Kekkei Genkai clans were formed.

Due to this unique genetic factor, ordinary shinobi generally do not have any advantages over those with Kekkei Genkai.

However, his analysis of the blood collected from members of the Hyuga clan aimed not to prove the extraordinary nature of Kekkei Genkai, but rather to understand the immense advantages they possess compared to ordinary individuals.

To him, this topic held little value. These blood samples could not unlock the secrets of the Hyuga clan's Caged Bird seal.

He understood this from the beginning. His goal was merely to discern the differences between individuals with Kekkei Genkai and ordinary individuals.

To confirm a specific doubt in his mind and validate his hypothesis, he focused more on studying Kekkei Genkai shinobi.

Prior to this, he had obtained hair and saliva samples from Ayane.

Although Ruri had beaten him when he initially suggested it, she eventually provided samples as well.

From the outset, he categorized chakra research into two areas: Applied Chakra and Essential Chakra.

Applied Chakra involves the practical use of chakra, such as deriving ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu techniques, and applying them in combat situations.

Essential Chakra, on the other hand, delves into the core aspects of chakra exploration.

Using water as an example, his focus is not on how water can be used, but rather on its formation, elemental composition, the production of each element, and the process of water synthesis.

Similarly, his interests lie not in the specific ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu techniques that chakra enables, but rather in understanding the composition and formation of chakra itself, including spiritual and physical energies and their synthesis into chakra—an essential component for the human body.

Numerous reasons occupied he thoughts.

Regardless of the changes and advancements in shinobi techniques, they remain deeply connected to the root of chakra.

Change cannot be separated from its origin.

Hence, he endeavors revolved around exploring the essence of chakra.

Chakra serves as the foundation of everything, the creator of all.

If the secrets of chakra can be unraveled, then the Kekkei Genkai based on chakra's foundation, including the Caged Bird Seal, will no longer pose a challenge.

No, he could envision a time when he would view the so-called Kekkei Genkai with disdain for pursuing such matters.

However, what appears deceptively simple often proves to be the most challenging.

He searched through every book in the academy's library but found none that explored the origin of chakra. The articles merely focused on perfected ninjutsu systems, lacking any mention of chakra's root.

Either shinobi are mere tools for killing, with no interest in understanding the source of these tools... Or the higher-ups in Konoha have intentionally concealed this aspect of the secret.

According to his speculation, the former is more likely.

Regardless of the level of concealment, there should be some revelations and practice of exceptional scientific researchers within the academy.

He's not mistaken in believing that the power of science knows no bounds.

However, this is the shinobi world, and the science practiced here is not the mathematics, physics, or chemistry commonly known.

It is chakra.

In this ninja world, where chakra is the fundamental truth, even science cannot escape the framework of chakra.

This is why he concluded that Konoha has yet to truly delve into the origin of chakra.

Is it a difference in perception, or simply a lack of intellectual curiosity?

If Konoha has conducted research in this area, it should at least provide him with a general direction.

Yet Konoha has not pursued this research, leaving him responsible for perfecting and constructing everything himself.

He ran his hand through his hair, hoping he wouldn't suffer significant hair loss as he grew older.

His appearance was simple and handsome.
