Naruto: Uchiha Resurgence

Uchiha Jin, who was at the center of the turmoil in Konoha, had no idea that his information had been discussed repeatedly on the desks of Konoha's top brass and had even become a hot topic at the clan meetings of Konoha's major clans.

However, even if Jin knew all this, he didn't care.

For Jin, these external evaluations and discussions cannot shake his heart.

Jin was focused on his own goals and pursuits, and was not swayed by the opinions of others.

In his opinion, only through one's own efforts and strength can one gain a foothold in the chaotic ninja world. Therefore, Jin will continue to move forward and constantly improve himself.

In recent days, Jin has been constantly testing his Wood Release ability and properties. He was surprised to find that his Wood Release was very different from that of the first Hokage, Senju Hashirama.

The first is that there is an obvious difference in power. Jin clearly feels that the wood release technique he can perform is far less powerful than that of Senju Hashirama.

When Jin tried to use wood escape techniques such as "Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence," he found that he was completely unable to perform it.

After trying several times, Jin found that the best he could do was to create a large number of sturdy trees and vines to restrain enemies or form barriers. However, the growth power and aggressiveness of these trees were far less terrifying than those shown by Senju Hashirama.

This made him realize that although he had obtained Wood Release, the limit of this power was far from that of the First Hokage.

Secondly, the chakra absorption properties of Wood Release are also different.

According to the legend of Hashirama Senju, his Wood Release could quickly absorb the enemy's chakra through contact, and could even suck the enemy to death in this way.

However, Jin found that although his Wood Release also had the ability to absorb chakra, its speed was disappointingly slow.

He tried to use vines to entangle a target and absorb the opponent's chakra through Wood Release.

However, the absorption process is extremely slow, even "gentle."

With Jin's current ability, even if he was dealing with a Genin, it would take at least ten minutes to kill them through chakra absorption, and that was on the premise that the other party did not resist at all.

Jin frowned and thought that this kind of wood release is obviously not as terrifying as Senju Hashirama's.

Jin couldn't help but begin to doubt whether he had only mastered part of the ability of Wood Release, or whether his current chakra amount and control were not enough to fully unleash the true power of Wood Release.

He repeatedly speculated in his mind that the reason why Hashirama was able to use Wood Release to such a terrifying degree might not only be because of the power of Wood Release itself, but also because Hashirama possessed a huge amount of chakra and a profound control over natural energy.

Jin realized that the reason why his current Wood Release had limited power might be related to his chakra reserves, control, and even his understanding and use of natural energy.

He continued to test his Wood Release ability on the training ground. Although he was already able to skillfully manipulate trees and vines, both the power and chakra absorption ability were far less powerful than he had imagined.

After many attempts, Jin realized that his current Wood Release ability was at most at the same level as Yamato, and comparing with the shocking power of the first Hokage, Senju Hashirama, there was still a huge gap.

Unwilling to give up, Jin decided to turn to the system for help and find the answer.

"System, why is my Wood Release not as strong as Hashirama's, and even its ability to absorb chakra is very weak?" he asked in his heart, with confusion and uneasiness in his tone.

After a moment, the system's answer sounded in his mind:

[Host, because your Sage Body is too weak compared to Hashirama. As the reincarnation of Ashura, Hashirama has a nearly perfect Sage Body. The strength of the Sage Body directly affects the power and nature of Wood Release. If the host wants to achieve the same Wood Release ability as Hashirama Senju, he needs to reach at least 80% of the Sage Body.]

When Jin heard this answer, he suddenly understood a lot.

Jin knew that the sage body was not just a simple matter of physique, but also involved the quality of chakra, the absorption and use of natural energy, and even the strength of overall vitality.

The reason why Hashirama's Wood Release is so powerful is because his sage body is almost perfect, allowing him to maximize the potential of Wood Release.

However, his current sage body was obviously far from sufficient, which directly led to the limitation on his Wood Release ability.

Then Uchiha Jin stood in a corner of the training ground and silently opened the system's attribute panel.

He carefully observed his own data, his heart full of thoughts and expectations.

[Character: Uchiha Jin]

 [Title: Ninja Academy Student]

 [Bloodline: Senju clan, Uchiha clan]

 [Bloodline limit: Sage body 21%, Sharingan (unawakened) ocular power 66%, Wood release] 

[Chakra: 1500 1.5 cards]

 [Special Ability: Ninja World Dance King]

[Ninjutsu: Three Academy Jutsus, Body Flicker, Uchiha Style Throwing Technique]

[Destiny points: 2260]

Jin's eyes swept across the various attributes, especially in the part about bloodline limits, and he found some gratifying changes.

First, he noticed that his sage body attribute increased from 20% to 21%. Although it is only a 1% increase, it is a positive signal for improving the power of Wood Release and the quality of chakra.

Every bit of improvement in his sage body means he is one step closer to reaching the peak like Senju Hashirama.

Secondly, the Sharingan's ocular power also increased from 60% to 66%. Although the Sharingan has not yet been awakened yet, this means that Jin's Uchiha bloodline is constantly growing, and the awakening of the Sharingan in the future may bring a huge increase in power.

What made him most gratified was that Wood Release had already appeared on the panel of the Bloodline Limits.

This means that he officially possesses this legendary ability. Although its current power is not enough to be compared to the first Hokage, he knows that as his sage body becomes stronger, the potential of Wood Release will be gradually released.

The increase in chakra also surprised him. Before, his chakra was only 1000 points (1 card), but now it has increased to 1500 points (1.5 card).

The increase in chakra not only improved his endurance in battle, but also meant that he could perform more powerful ninjutsu.

[Ninja World Dance King] This ability, inherited from Uchiha Madara, is one of Jin's most relied upon combat skills.

With the accumulation of practical experience, he has gradually become more and more proficient in using this ability. The improvement of reaction speed, dynamic vision, and combat awareness have given him an absolute advantage in battle.

What Jin particularly noticed was that his destiny points had increased by more than 1000 points in a short period of time, which surprised him.

He thought about it and realized that he had not deliberately completed any special tasks or challenges recently, so this sudden increase in destiny points might be related to his reputation.

"Is it because my performance in the Ninja School has attracted enough attention?" he thought in his heart.

Jin speculated that the top leaders and major clans of Konoha might have begun paying attention to him, and might even be discussing and observing his movements behind his back.

This invisible influence may also be an important source of growth in destiny points.

"System, what is the growth of the sage body related to? How should I train my sage body?"
