Naruto: Chronicles of A Fire Ninja

Chapter 88: Training in Basics

"Maybe Sharingan helps us in separating Yin chakra and making it more stable, or helps in projecting it out of our body."

"Both of your hypotheses are correct, but a slight modification is required. Sharingan not only helps us in sending Yin chakra out of our body but also helps in sending our intent in that chakra, which allows us to show the enemy whatever we want them to see.

With this, you know enough basics to start your Sharingan training. Start with your first phase of training, in which you have to separate Yin chakra from Yang chakra in the ratio of 85:15 while making it stable enough to project it out of your body and maintain it for some time.

And you have to do this while your Sharingan is deactivated—don't even think about activating it, okay?" Shisui said.

"Yes, brother," Kaida replied and began his training.

Seeing this, Shisui smiled and then went toward his room, knowing this was going to take time.

Kaida sat in a meditative pose and started trying to divide his chakra into two parts. He smiled, remembering his training about changing his normal chakra to fire chakra during his ninjutsu training with Yukihiro.

Following his past experience, he decided to use Shadow Clones for this. Since he was now able to make many clones, Kaida was sure he would learn this much faster.

He quickly made 40 Shadow Clones and started his training. At first, his clones divided into groups of five and began discussing various ways to accomplish the task, ranging from trying to follow the same method as changing normal chakra to fire chakra or vibrating it to divide it.

After applying all the shortcut methods, they decided to use the longer way of dividing their chakra using intent while meditating.

All of his 40 clones began meditating. Since they had just had lunch, Kaida had around 7-8 hours before dinner. Shisui asked his mother not to disturb Kaida while he was meditating.

Slowly but surely, Kaida and his clones were able to divide their chakra into Yin and Yang. However, as soon as they divided the chakra, it began to disperse, causing the chakra to be wasted.

Normally, Kaida's clones could easily perform this exercise for 5-6 hours, but due to the loss of chakra whenever they were successful in dividing it, Kaida had to disperse his 40 clones and then create 10 new clones with more chakra. After that, he began meditating to refill his chakra, knowing that even with approximately 10% of his chakra, his clones would not be able to continue this exercise for more than 3-4 hours.

To his surprise, after 4 hours, his clones still had 30% of their chakra remaining. The reason for this was that they were able to stabilize their chakra enough to prevent it from dispersing and restore it to normal before it dispersed completely.

He made 10 more clones with 8-9% of his chakra and then dispersed his previous clones, so he regained all the memories along with some of his chakra.

'So intent does play a major role in dividing the chakra, but that alone is not enough. If we just divide the chakra, it gets dispersed into the surroundings. But if we rotate it and try to dissolve it back, Yin and Yang chakra will be able to maintain their form longer.

But that is also not enough. Even though I can maintain Yin chakra for a little longer duration, it is still getting dispersed after 2-3 minutes. Maybe I'm missing something; let's continue training. Maybe I will get some new ideas.'

...

While Kaida was training, Hiruzen received some interesting news.

In the Hokage office, a ninja bowed his head and left the office. Hiruzen then opened the scroll given by that ninja and started reading it.
