Chapter 659 Talent
Gradually, Zhang Hai's talent in medical ninjutsu began to emerge. His Mangekyou Sharingan allowed him to clearly observe subtle changes in cells and even see the flow of chakra within the human body. This was undoubtedly a tremendous help in learning medical ninjutsu.
His collaboration with Tsunade on research was becoming increasingly seamless. Tsunade noticed that Zhang Hai's mind had become even sharper than before. He was always able to offer novel and unique insights, helping her solve some long-standing problems.
"Zhang Hai, have you been secretly taking some supplements lately?" One day, Tsunade watched as Zhang Hai easily solved a complex problem she had posed, and couldn't help but ask, her tone tinged with surprise, "Your mind is even sharper than before?!"
Zhang Hai simply smiled faintly and did not answer. He knew that this was the result of his "learning" from both Tsunade and Orochimaru over this period of time.
Just as Tsunade was marveling at Zhang Hai's amazing talent, she suddenly sensed that the barrier surrounding the prison seemed to have shifted slightly. Although the fluctuation was faint, she could still clearly detect it with her sensory abilities.
Tsunade sensed the fluctuations in the barrier, and her expression instantly turned serious. She whirled around and said to Zhang Hai, "Someone is testing the barrier! You stay here and don't move!"
After saying that, she vanished from the room in a flash.
A moment later, outside the barrier.
Tsunade casually opened a small gap in the barrier, a hint of impatience on her face.
"Hey! Who is it?! What are you doing sneaking around outside in the middle of the night?!" Tsunade's voice was full of impatience and a hint of anger.
Outside the barrier, Minato Namikaze's figure slowly appeared. Seeing Tsunade's impatient expression, he gave a somewhat awkward smile.
"Tsunade-senpai, it's me," Minato said softly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes as he looked at the luxurious mansion before him. "This is... Zhang Haijun's prison?"
He originally thought Zhang Hai would be imprisoned in some dark and damp ordinary prison, but he never expected that Tsunade would place him in such a place that was comparable to a mansion.
Tsunade rolled her eyes at Minato, not answering his question. She simply pointed inside the mansion and said dismissively, "Go in and see for yourself. Remember, don't wander around or disturb my research!"
After saying that, Tsunade turned around and disappeared into the night once again.
Minato watched Tsunade's hurried departure and shook his head helplessly. He knew that Tsunade was always meticulous, even somewhat obsessive, when it came to scientific research.
He cautiously entered the mansion, following the lit rooms until he finally arrived at Zhang Hai's detached house. When he saw Zhang Hai sitting in the room, listlessly flipping through a medical book, a somewhat complicated smile appeared on his face.
"Zhang Haijun, are you... alright?" Minato asked softly.
Hearing Shuimen's voice, Zhang Hai looked up at him with a tired smile on his face.
“Senior Minato,” Zhang Hai sighed, a hint of helplessness in his voice, “You’ve come at the perfect time. What… novel ninjutsu have you brought for me to evaluate?”
He knew that Minato always enjoyed researching new ninjutsu, and that every time he developed a new technique, he would immediately come to him for evaluation. This had become an unspoken understanding between the two.
Upon hearing this, Minato's face immediately lit up with excitement. He walked up to Zhang Hai, took out a scroll from his pocket, and then laid it flat on the table.
"Zhang Haijun, come and see this!" Minato said excitedly, "This is a new ninjutsu I recently developed! Its inspiration comes from the Tailed Beast Ball!"
He stretched out his finger and traced a complex pattern on the scroll. The pattern was none other than a rapidly spinning chakra sphere.
"I highly compressed my chakra, forming a rapidly spinning sphere in my palm. Its power is comparable to the internal energy of a Tailed Beast Ball!" Minato excitedly explained. "Moreover, its attack methods are more flexible; it can be used for both close combat and ranged attacks!"
Zhang Hai stared at the patterns on the scroll, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He knew the power of the Tailed Beast Ball, and he also knew how difficult it was to compress chakra into a sphere. The fact that Minato could do this was enough to demonstrate that his talent in ninjutsu was truly extraordinary.
He clapped along, a hint of admiration on his face.
"It's quite powerful," Zhang Hai praised sincerely. "Once this ninjutsu is fully developed, it will be a powerful force capable of changing the course of the battlefield."
Upon hearing Zhang Hai's praise, Minato's face lit up with even greater excitement. He rubbed his hands together and said excitedly, "Haha! I knew Zhang Hai-kun would like it! And I've already come up with a catchy name for it!"
He cleared his throat, then said loudly in an almost solemn tone, "This ninjutsu is called—Uzumaki Gale Spiral Light Arrow Zero Style!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Hai's smile instantly froze. Looking at Shui Men's excited and proud expression, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
"Wait a minute! Minato-senpai!" Zhang Hai quickly interrupted Minato, his tone carrying a hint of disdain, "Isn't this name... a bit too long?"
Minato paused for a moment, then looked at Zhang Hai with some confusion: "Long? I think it looks pretty imposing!"
“It’s impressive, indeed…” Zhang Hai sighed, rubbed his forehead, and said helplessly, “But it’s too long! And… Little Chili definitely won’t be able to remember it.”
He was referring to Minato's wife, Kushina Uzumaki. Kushina had a fiery temper and was nicknamed "Little Pepper." If Minato had introduced this ninjutsu to her, she would definitely have complained about how long the name was.
Upon hearing this, Minato's excitement vanished instantly, replaced by embarrassment and helplessness. He thought of Kushina's fiery temper; if he were to introduce her by that name, she would surely complain endlessly.
Looking at Shuimen's conflicted expression, Zhang Hai couldn't help but find it a little amusing.
“I suggest…” Zhang Hai pondered for a moment, then offered a suggestion, “How about calling it… Rasengan?”
Minato's eyes lit up when he heard the name.
“Rasengan…” Minato murmured, a look of surprise on his face. “This name… is concise, powerful, and full of meaning! Okay! Let’s call it Rasengan!”
He clapped his hands excitedly, then looked at Zhang Hai with gratitude in his eyes.
"Zhang Haijun, you're a genius!" Minato exclaimed excitedly. "I'm going to show Chili my newly developed... Rasengan right now!"
