Chapter 139: Comparing Taijutsu
🕑 Added 2021-09-05 14:26:07 +0000 UTCA few minutes later, most of Hatake's injuries had healed. The young man stepped aside and bowed slightly:
- I was glad to meet Kakashi-san, I hope there won't be any more?
- Ha, not today, - leaning on a tree, Jonin got up: - You better tell me why you didn't use the rest of the gates?
In response to the guy's surprised look, Hatake chuckled.
- This is Guy, he likes to shake up.
"Well, you bet ..." Shikamaru's lips stretched out in a slight grin. "I didn't use the gate ... Well, maybe for the same reason as you." You didn’t use Chidori or Summoning, that’s not to mention the rest of the techniques.
“Interesting ...” Kakashi flexed his shoulders and said, “There are abilities that should not be used against friends. Do you understand what I mean?
- May be.
Turning around, Hatake jumped from a meter-long root of a tree and waved his hand goodbye:
- Be careful. You can stand up for yourself, but once again do not shine your abilities.
Shikamaru said nothing. He already knows how to hide skills, even in this battle he did not show everything ...
As soon as Kakashi disappeared into the distance, the guy here the hedgehog activated the Byakugan and followed it even further. When Dojutsu could not detect the shinobi, the guy exhaled with relief and returned to his backpack. After a small clash between the two ninja, the trees in the area were noticeably damaged. Some were even uprooted, and some even turned into dust. For the owner of Mokuton, such a sight seemed a little depressing. That is why, Shikamaru decided not to leave this place yet. Once the opportunity has arisen, you can test your strength again!
One hand seal and a dozen clones separated from Shikamaru's body. To begin with, it was worth checking the transformation of metals, clones were best suited for this, toxic species could harm the main body, but if you use clones, you can not only speed up the acquisition of the necessary experience, but also protect yourself.
Deciding on this, Shikamaru began training. Chakra was quite enough to check the transformations at the proper level. Naturally, fatigue will be transmitted to the main body, but any poisons and vapors in this case will naturally not work. Starting with the simplest metals, the guy quickly made his way to more complex and dangerous ones. The higher the atomic mass, the more difficult the transformation and the greater the cost of chakra. In this case, Metal Release turned out to be quite stable and balanced.
The metals turned out to be much less than Shikamaru had originally anticipated. It turned out to be impossible to create unstable isotopes at the moment, and the number of stable isotopes that he could repeat clearly did not match Shikamaru's memories. In his past world, there were many more types of metals, among which are not stable, but with a long decay. But in this world, the past owners of the element did not go so far into the transformation and did not discover some of the chemical elements. Perhaps they didn't try, or identifying new species is more difficult than it sounds. Shikamaru was leaning towards the latter option. Even having received so many possible transformations, he still did not really understand how to identify new ones. In addition, even working with the current species and the correct distribution of chakra is no longer an easy task. A person with a weak chakra and body, with poor memorization abilities, simply cannot remember much, let alone create Jutsu even more so.
Working with isotopes is not at all what Shikamaru understood. He did not even know much of the use of all current metals. Perhaps a chemist could figure out how to use the element as profitably as possible, but in his case, everything is much more complicated. The most he remembered was the reaction of alkali metals like potassium with water. The hardness of Chromium, the strength of Titanium, and the heaviness of Osmium. Simply put, he knew the basics. Perhaps, if you delve into the memories, something can be caught, like the magnetic properties of Neodymium, but this is a matter of time ...
In addition, the cherished desire to get Uranus turned out to be impossible, since the last available metal is Bismuth. This meant that all actinides were simply blocked at the moment, and Damage was still very, very far away, not to mention Plutonium. Further transformations are impossible, you will have to figure it out yourself. Although, this is not such a loss - even these metals are quite enough for many things. In addition, the possession of Uranus will allow you to create simply terrifying things. If he had Shikamaru, and in a moment he would have turned into one of the strongest shinobi in the world. What is just a simple uranium dust capable of killing everything in its path.
It is many times easier to transform a ready-made substance with the help of chakra, especially if it is metal. But to give the chakra itself a spontaneous metallic property is not so expensive with the volumes of Shikamaru. The difficulty was only new transformations, at the same time similar, but also different at certain points.
The training turned out to be interesting and informative. As a result, most of the forest was filled with many metal structures, several scorched zones covered with poisonous fumes, an entire crystal zone of Bismuth and even a golden hemisphere. Not far from the main body of Shikamaru, one could even make out a whole puddle of mercury, but the clone quickly figured it out, plunging all the poisonous elements deeper into the ground. It was not advisable to leave everything like that. The clones scattered, and after that Shikamaru got a decent amount of fatigue, a lot of useful knowledge and a decent amount of ideas for creating new Jutsu.
The main acquisition, perhaps, remained the ability to create a unique type of metal with huge mergers of the Yang elements - adamantium. Its strength and flexibility were impressive, and its rather light weight is definitely one of the most important advantages. Chakra conductivity, sharpness - this metal is simply made for forging. Only the chakra costs were amazing. In general, the higher the atomic mass and the complexity of transformation, the more chakra is required to create a certain type of metal. A simple example is the conversion of iron into gold, the costs are decent. Of course, everything depends on the size of the structure. Converting iron to tin is much easier. A hundred kilograms of gold made of iron will easily use up the reserves of an ordinary Chūnin, and a hundred kilograms of tin made of iron will cut costs in half. Naturally, if you create metal from chakra, the costs are even higher.
In this case, the Adamantine Dome was several times the cost of creating hundreds of Rasengans, if not more. In general, if you look at the benefits of such a metal, the costs are not so high. At the moment, a spear made of adamantium, even for Shikamaru, is considered worthy of chakra cost. Not like a Rasengan for Kakashi, of course, but roughly like a good Ninjutsu for Jonin. So it's definitely not possible to create a hundred copies here, and a one-piece adamantine dome will generally cost him a third of the total reserve. The costs were impressive, and the strength and flexibility of this metal were mind-boggling. Thanks to this, it is possible to reduce the cost of chakra in exchange for a decrease in strength. So adamantium-based techniques are very specific and suitable for many situations. The main thing is to learn how to handle it and understand the basics.
