Chapter 25 - The Universal Source of Chakra

"Hiruzen took him as a disciple?!" 

As Hiruzen decided to take Suzuki as his personal disciple, it naturally attracted everyone's attention, as many eyes witnessed the fight between Mizuki and Suzuki. 

While Naruto's ability to create so many of himself with the shadow clone technique, Suzuki made an immensely great fireball with talent! 

Yes, Suzuki was probably the most talented ninja in his generation! 

"Dammit, Hiruzen!" 

Danzo cursed Hiruzen for being cunning, yet also sighed, never expecting that Hiruzen would suddenly take a decisive attitude, making Suzuki his disciple. "I want to make him my Root member..." 

With his words, he believed he could take Suzuki as a member, but he unexpectedly lost the initiative, which made him curse Hiruzen again and again for being cunning! 

Still, he wouldn't do anything since no matter how much he tried to glorify himself, the Hokage was Hiruzen. 

As for the others, while they were surprised, they didn't show much of an intense reaction, as they were just curious, considering they hardly took a glance at other students in Suzuki's class except for Sasuke, the orphan of the Uchiha, and Naruto, the Fox Demon. 

Yet, without a doubt, for those who knew him, especially the parents of those heirs and heiresses, they knew well that Suzuki's status had been elevated, and he was on the path of becoming Hokage, and because of that, many looked at the father of Ino, especially the father of Shikamaru and Choji. 

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" 

Still, while Ino was happy, knowing what had happened to Suzuki, Suzuki ignored her father's cry and focused on learning with Hiruzen, realizing that Hiruzen wasn't born to wield all types of chakra nature. 

Instead, Hiruzen developed his own theory, which allowed him to use all types of jutsu, making him a ninja known as the "Professor." 

"You might have noticed it, but it is rare, or almost impossible, or even impossible for one to wield all types of natures, and even if one has it, they are either those who are born with a special bloodline or from a family that has a unique ability."

This was a cruel fact as Suzuki knew well that for those who could wield all types of nature chakra from fire, water, earth, lightning, wind, yin, and yang, were those who had the special bloodline, someone who was from the line of the God of Shinobi, Hagoromo Otsutsuki. 

Every ninja has a biological "Affinity"; for example, Naruto's was wind. Learning your affinity takes 6 months. Learning a foreign element, for example, Naruto would take 3-5 years to learn earth, and that was even with grueling training, and because of that, most ninja stop at 2 or 3.

Still, Hiruzen Sarutobi, despite coming from a ninja family that had no special bloodline, could wield all types of jutsu from various natures.

What was the reason? 

"But I have realized that each chakra nature has its own, or rather, chakra is life." 

"Chakra is life..." 

Suzuki murmured, hating Hiruzen for trying to mystify everything, yet, fortunately, he somehow understood Hiruzen's words: each chakra nature had its own vibration. 

For the Fire type, it is the heat. 

For the Water type, it is the fluid. 

For the Lightning type, it is the vibration.

For the Earth type, it is the solid. 

For the Wind type, it is the sharpness and thinness. 

This was the reason why Hiruzen was able to fire all five elements at once.

Rather, Hiruzen directly activated it as he created five of his clones, who started to fire five elements of jutsu at the same time. 

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique."

"Water Release: Water Bullet Technique."

"Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet."

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough."

"Lightning Release: Electromagnetic Murder."

Hiruzen shot all five C-Rank elements of jutsu, causing immense destruction on the field.

"Amazing..." 

Yes, those jutsu might be all C-rank, which was just so-so, and faced with the strongest, those jutsu would do nothing, but even so, for Hiruzen to be able to use all five elements of jutsu, Suzuki realized that this old man had a reason why he could become the Hokage. 

Still, when Suzuki thought about how Hiruzen often bragged about becoming the strongest Hokage, it made him a little embarrassed, though. 

"What do you think, Suzuki-kun?" 

Hiruzen looked at Suzuki and asked, "Can you do it?" 

"I..." 

If it was before, Suzuki knew that he wouldn't be able to do it, but to be honest, with the "Manager," which helped him to record, analyze, refine, develop, and synthesize all the data that he saw, he knew well that he could do it, or rather, it was easier than he had thought it would be. 

"Let me try, Sensei." 

"Good." 

Hiruzen didn't hate Suzuki's initiative, and even let Suzuki do it, but when he thought that Suzuki would end up in failure— 

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique."

"Water Release: Water Bullet Technique."

"Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet."

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough."

"Lightning Release: Electromagnetic Murder."

"...." Hiruzen. 

Yes, Suzuki might not be able to make a copy of himself with the shadow clone, and all of the jutsu that he released were just weak type, but the fact that he could use the five elements of nature of chakra didn't change. 

"Sensei, it's like this..." 

"Hmm?" 

While Hiruzen was in a daze by Suzuki's talent, he then nodded as he listened to Suzuki's theory, which seemed to fit all of his experience, yet Suzuki was able to explain everything in the most scientific way, and easy to understand, or rather, Hiruzen wasn't stupid since if he was one, could he be called the "Professor"? 

The only problem with Hiruzen was his indecision, which caused him a lot of trouble, yet if he worked in the academic area, he would even become stronger, or rather, he was simply the living proof that intelligence beats genetics. 

When everyone used the sharingan, byakugan, physical ability, and all other things, Hiruzen was simply smart, and that made him able to stand higher than any of them, and even dared to claim that he was the strongest Hokage, although he wasn't one. 

Unlike the other Hokages, Hiruzen understood branding, and if one could defeat others with just his name and prestige, why should he fight, right? 

Yet, without a doubt, Hiruzen knew that Suzuki was the disciple that he had been waiting for, especially when Suzuki was able to explain all the characteristics of the five chakra natures perfectly, which made him rub his chin and ask, "Have you thought of a name?" 

"A name?" 

"Yes, for this finding." Hiruzen nodded. "You are a genius, Suzuki-kun. More than you ever thought."

Unlike other ninja, who were practically copy, paste, or just relied on hard work, or bloodline, Suzuki chose the path of the brain, which was rare in this world where everyone shouted for the spirit, and relied on being the descendants of the powerful being, he chose the path that was hardly walked, or even never been walked, which made Hiruzen feel giddy with excitement somehow. 

Yes, Hiruzen might have given Suzuki the basics, yet if Suzuki wasn't by his side, he knew this path was simply impossible to walk, and because of that, he would give Suzuki his best support. 

"No, Sensei, you are the reason why I can do this." 

Suzuki shook his head and decided to give Hiruzen a chance. 

"Just say a name, let me see whether you have a weird naming sense or not." 

"....." 

Just who did this old guy compare himself to? 

Yet, Suzuki sighed, and thought for a while before he said, "Then, let's name it, Universal Source of chakra." 

Nevertheless, what he didn't know was that this was the first step at which those ninja with the special bloodline were no longer special.
