Chapter 88 - Ch 88. Counter x New Ability x Preparation x Projects II

As Ron and Ed finished surveying the last of the area, Ron's thoughts drifted back to the progress he had made with his new ability. Specifically, he had already integrated Yang Release into his Lightning Chakra Mode. This resulted in a distinct change, the lightning took on a green hue within the usual blue chakra aura. More than just a visual shift, this new lightning possessed unique characteristics. It had a smoother flow and enhanced destructive power. Unlike Black Lightning, which focused on compression and sharpness, this green-tinged lightning closely resembled the chakra signature seen in advanced medical ninjutsu.

Most notably, this Yang-based Lightning Chakra Mode could be fully circulated both inside and outside the body. This made it a true Yang-type Lightning Chakra Mode. The infusion of Yang Release empowered the user's physical structure, giving birth to a technique Ron named Yang-Type Lightning Body Forging. In Ron's eyes, this technique surpassed other Lightning Chakra Modes in some areas, as it accelerated physical development and thus enhanced the user's genetic potential, all while reducing the internal damage that typically came from intense training or overuse of normal lightning body forging.

In his opinion, combining Yang-type Lightning Body Forging with the medical hibernation chambers and gravity training facilities would allow even civilians to reach remarkable physical levels. With dedication and effort, they could develop physiques rivaling those of the Raikage Clan's bloodline when becoming a shadow-level ninja. Over time, as they consolidated their strength, these physical traits would be embedded in their genes through chakra, becoming part of the Raikage lineage.

More importantly, for individuals like Ron, Ay, Killer Bee, and the Third Raikage, whose bodies were already born stronger than general members of the Raikage clan and were incredibly refined, the benefits were even greater. Ron, Aye, and the third Raikege were the direct line of the raikage clan, being born of the strongest members. The Third Raikage took this blood to an even higher level, reaching Super-shadow in body and taijutsu, and Ron and Aye inherited these genes, so these 3 were truly born strong. Killer Bee was also a member of the Raikage clan, close to the main line, so he was also talented. Being a Jinchurikki, his body had immense vitality provided by the tailed beast, so he was also a monster in terms of talent.

Their powerful bodies and vast chakra reserves had already been evolving naturally toward something akin to a Sage Body. With this new Yang-enhanced lightning body forging, that transformation could occur faster and more efficiently. Their vitality, recovery rate, and chakra volume would reach new heights.

One key distinction, Ron noted, was how the different chakra nature integration affected Lightning Release. Infusing Yin or Black Lightning gave lightning techniques more solidity, structure, and sharpness. Even passive Yin Release allowed for the formation of highly defensive lightning armors. In contrast, the green-blue lightning generated by Yang-infused lightning chakra was less about form and more about raw power and physical and chakra enhancement and activation. It pushed the user's body to new heights, increasing brute strength and destructive capability like adding fuel to a fire. In this analogy, Yang Release acted like kerosene or oil poured onto flames, intensifying the power and force of the jutsu.

However, this power came at a cost. While Yang-type Lightning Chakra Mode enhanced offense and physique, its defensive properties were reduced compared to the standard Lightning Chakra Armor. Additionally, achieving the same speed as the original mode required far greater control. The flowing, energized chakra aura of the Yang-type variant was more difficult to manage for users as the potent power requires more control, resulting in less thrust and propulsion during movement using the aura of the chakra mode initially, unless the user had stronger chakra manipulation.

Still, Ron considered all of this just the beginning preliminary testing. With enough experience and training, he believed this new Lightning Chakra Mode variant could surpass the traditional version, becoming the next evolutionary step in Lightning-style chakra mode.

In addition, Ron thought, "When the user can perfectly control the aura of the Yang-type lightning chakra mode, they will be able to apply even more force with the emanating aura than normal lightning chakra mode, which was the main reason other than the user's chakra enhanced, activated body, that gave the user's power and speed in that mode."

"Most importantly, finally, when control is enough so that the user can direct the aura of the chakra mode in one unified direction, with the help of the force applied by the continuous flowing chakra reaching a certain level of power, a new technique or application could be mastered!"
