Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: Terrible Rasengan

I really don't know how your brain works.

Minato shook his head, expressing his doubts about Simu.

Over the past year, Simu and Minato had developed a strong mutual understanding.

Seeing Minato's expression, Simu raised an eyebrow.

"That ninjutsu—did you finish it?"

Minato nodded, then let out a wry smile. "Fortunately, I had your idea to guide me."

Nearly six months ago, when Simu saw Minato researching Chakra Nature Transformation, he casually suggested:

"What if you made the Chakra spin? Preferably in a ball."

After giving it some thought, Minato realized Simu's idea was brilliant!

As long as he could control the speed of Chakra's rotation and ensure its stability, rotation could become one of the highest forms of transformation.

It was not only more stable than other transformations, but it could also unleash tremendous power at the moment of impact.

Thus, under Simu's suggestion, Minato embarked on a long and arduous journey to create a brand-new jutsu.

After all, rotational transformation was rarely utilized in ninjutsu.

The only technique he could reference was the Hyuga Clan's Revolving Heaven.

Unfortunately, Hyuga Rei was only from a branch family.

And Revolving Heaven was an advanced taijutsu exclusive to the main branch.

So Rei was not qualified to learn it.

In the original story, Neji was only able to master it because his talent was so extraordinary that the clan made an exception.

There may have also been some consideration due to his father, Hyuga Hizashi, sacrificing himself for Hiashi.

Regardless, Minato's self-created ninjutsu was like crossing a river without a bridge.

He had to figure everything out on his own, step by step.

Simu was genuinely surprised.

Even though Rasengan was originally Minato's creation, the speed at which he developed it far exceeded expectations.

This only further proved how terrifying Minato's talent was.

No wonder he became the first Hokage from a civilian background.

However, over the past year, Minato's achievements had been somewhat overshadowed by Simu's terrifying feats.

Minato smirked and raised his chin at Simu.

"Wanna give it a try?"

Simu nodded and pointed toward a hill in the Forest of Death.

"Over there should be fine."

The three of them made their way to the hill.

Minato took a deep breath.

Spreading his palm forward, pale blue Chakra began to surge from his hand.

What once burned like flames was now as tame as a beast under Minato's control.

It obediently condensed into a sphere before spinning rapidly in his grasp.

Minato's expression turned serious, beads of sweat forming on his forehead due to his intense concentration.

As the spinning grew faster, the surrounding air was stirred up, forming violent air currents that wrapped around him.

Minato carefully controlled the Chakra in his palm.

He had to maintain its stability—any mistake could cause the entire mass of Chakra to explode.

After nearly twenty seconds of fine-tuning, the Rasengan finally stabilized, spinning at high speed in Minato's hand.

"Amazing..."

Even Might Dai, who knew nothing about ninjutsu, was in awe.

Although he didn't understand its mechanics, he could still feel the terrifying power contained within the spinning Chakra ball.

"Minato-san, what's the name of this technique?"

Might Dai asked curiously.

Minato hesitated for a moment. He hadn't thought of a name yet.

"If you don't have a name yet, why not call it Rasengan?"

Simu suggested casually.

Minato's eyes lit up.

"Rasengan… that's a great name."

It perfectly captured the essence of the technique.

If left to his own devices, Minato might have ended up naming it something ridiculous, like Spiral Flash Super Round Dance Roar or something equally absurd...

"Let's test its power."

Minato held Rasengan firmly in his hand and drove it into the hill before him.

In an instant, immense energy erupted, stirring up countless razor-sharp wind currents.

With its swirling force, the Rasengan penetrated deep into the hill—before detonating from within!

The terrifying energy shockwave caused half of the hill to instantly collapse into rubble!

Simu stared at the destruction before him.

At the point of impact, there was only a small hole.

But behind it?

The entire back half of the hill had been utterly obliterated by the Rasengan's internal force.

"It destroyed the structure from the inside out?"

Simu patted his chest and whistled.

"What a terrifying technique... that scared the hell out of me."

"If you get hit by that, you'd be dead on the spot."

Minato rolled his eyes.

"Relax. Even if you took a direct hit from Rasengan, you'd still be alive and kicking. Wanna test it?"

"Forget it, that thing's way too scary!"

Simu quickly changed the subject and glanced toward the exit of the Forest of Death.

He sniffed the air.

"Lunch is here."

Before Minato and Might Dai could even react, Simu vanished in a flash.

In the blink of an eye, he reappeared in front of Kushina and Hyuga Rei, who had come to deliver food.
