Chapter 221: Chapter 221: New Changes to the System
Sasuke felt as if he had suddenly fallen into a world filled entirely with chakra.
In this world, Sasuke could freely control all the chakra.
It felt as though a mere breath could unleash a massive wave of chakra that would ripple and shake the air violently.
Boom!!!
Indeed, at that moment, Sasuke easily released a burst of chakra, causing the surrounding air to tremble.
For a moment, even the White Snake Sage was stunned.
"This kid... his chakra reserves are increasing explosively?"
"What is going on here?"
If the increase in strength from Sasuke's Sage Mode and the manifestation of a tangible chakra cloak were remarkable but still acceptable,
then the sudden explosion in Sasuke's chakra reserves was an entirely different matter.
Moreover, the increase in Sasuke's chakra also enhanced the upper limit of senjutsu chakra he could refine.
This led to Sasuke absorbing natural energy at an even faster rate—
a speed so terrifying that even the White Snake Sage felt a hint of fear.
Fortunately, this phenomenon didn't last long.
One second, it was as if the sky was collapsing in a horrifying scene.
The next, everything returned to calm.
The glow around Sasuke gradually faded, and the air around him ceased its ripples.
The tremors within Ryūchi Cave also came to an end.
The giant snakes hiding in various corners began peeking out to observe the situation.
The three Hime-Snakes floated down from the air, warily watching Sasuke from afar.
They were still on edge, worried that Sasuke might suddenly cause another commotion.
Considering the power he just displayed, if his chakra went berserk, he might destroy half of Ryūchi Cave.
For a human to absorb natural energy at such an astonishing rate and trigger such terrifying tremors—
what exactly was going on with this guy?
However, Sasuke had already regained his senses by now.
Feeling the power within him, Sasuke's face lit up with a delighted smile.
"It worked!"
"The chakra reserves… they've increased by such an enormous amount?"
Even Sasuke himself was shocked.
[Chakra Reserves: Kage Level (Mid-tier: ten times that of an elite Jōnin)]
His chakra reserves had successfully advanced from elite Jōnin-level to mid-tier Kage-level.
And just his chakra reserves alone were ten times that of an elite Jōnin.
Elite Jōnin were already close to Kage-level strength, and now Sasuke had ten times their chakra reserves.
This was based on the system's standards.
If compared to Kakashi, it would be equivalent to having the chakra reserves of several hundred Kakashis.
This meant that Sasuke's chakra reserves alone were comparable to the cheat-level Naruto Uzumaki.
It was simply unbelievable!
Sasuke quickly opened his character panel.
Everything else seemed unchanged, with his ninjutsu and other levels remaining the same.
However, there was a new development in one area.
The chakra attribute section now displayed something different.
Previously, it showed:
[Chakra Attributes: Water, Fire, Lightning, Earth, Yin]
Now, it had changed:
[Chakra Attributes: Water (45%/1), Fire (10%/2), Lightning (98%/2), Earth (0%/1), Yin (27%/1)]
The new display came with an explanation to help Sasuke understand its meaning.
[Since the host has successfully reached the Jōnin level, chakra nature transformation levels are now displayed.]
[To enhance the power of a chakra attribute, you need to reach 100%, which will allow an upgrade to the next level.]
In this new display, the percentage represented progress, while the numbers indicated the level.
For example, the Water attribute chakra was currently at Level 1 nature transformation. To upgrade to Level 2, he needed to reach 100%.
Currently, the progress was only at 45%.
Seeing this new change, Sasuke paused, realizing that advancing to Jōnin had unlocked new features.
Did this mean that reaching Kage-level might also unlock something new?
[Analysis: The host's basic strength and speed are relatively weak. Focus on training these foundational abilities.]
[Master the Forbidden Jutsu: Eight Gates Technique, and train to achieve the Sixth Gate.]
[Reward: Senju Clan Physique.]
What?!
Learning the Eight Gates Technique.
The system was no longer merely pushing Sasuke to achieve Kage-level strength; it was now directing him to learn forbidden jutsu!
This mission caught Sasuke off guard.
Weak in strength and speed?
Why would a long-range, ninjutsu-based combatant like him need such exceptional taijutsu?
This task from the system… made Sasuke feel somewhat frustrated.
However, the reward greatly intrigued him.
The Senju Clan Physique!
For the system to offer such a reward was impressive.
Though the Eight Gates Technique was a forbidden jutsu, Sasuke's talent and physique made mastering it feasible.
But!
Training to the Sixth Gate was a different story.
Even Sasuke couldn't confidently say how long it would take him.
In the original story, Lee was capable of opening five gates during the Chūnin Exams. Yet by the Fourth Great Ninja War, he could only open six gates.
Perhaps he could open the seventh and eighth gates, but clearly, he hadn't mastered them well enough to use in battle. Otherwise, two Eight Gates taijutsu users could have teamed up to attack.
Madara wouldn't have had his other half of life remaining.
The finale might have come sooner.
This demonstrated just how difficult it was to reach the Sixth Gate.
It was fair to say that the Fifth Gate marked a significant turning point, and advancing even one more gate was no small feat.
This suggested that the reward wouldn't be easy to obtain!
As Sasuke pondered this,
the White Snake Sage suddenly nudged him gently with her tail.
Turning, Sasuke looked in her direction.
Seeing that Sasuke seemed to have regained his composure, the White Snake Sage was visibly delighted.
"Little Sasuke, just now… you succeeded in solidifying senjutsu chakra. Your talent is something I've never witnessed before!"
"You've managed to master even the legendary Sage Mode. No… this is the ideal, most perfect Sage Mode!"
"It's simply unbelievable."
Ideal?
Solidified senjutsu chakra?
Prompted by the White Snake Sage's words, Sasuke suddenly remembered something.
It seemed the system had just mentioned something.
[Congratulations, Host. Special Physique: Sage Transformation has upgraded due to Sage Mode improvement, advancing to Intermediate Form.]
[Second Form of Sage Transformation unlocked.]

Chapter 222: Chapter 222: An Interesting Matter
As expected, the moment he activated it, Sasuke could clearly feel his body beginning to change.
At the same time, the previously unused Senjutsu chakra seemed to have been stored in the Reverse Scale.
Now, that Senjutsu chakra was being mobilized once more.
In an instant, it filled Sasuke's entire body.
Chakra began to flow and appeared on Sasuke's body surface.
A blue chakra cloak formed, though it didn't entirely resemble the form of a Tailed Beast chakra cloak.
Instead, parts of his body looked more like they were in the Eight Gates state, with a blue glow covering him.
A giant snake formed from Senjutsu chakra appeared behind him,
coiled behind Sasuke and extending its head over his shoulder, its eyes radiating fierce light as it stared ahead.
Sasuke turned to look at the snake behind him.
With a mere thought, he could easily control the movements of this chakra snake.
The sensation of this chakra cloak intrigued Sasuke.
It felt as though this chakra wasn't just for explosive ninjutsu; he could directly manipulate its form.
It could turn into a fist, a hand, or even a sharp spike.
Additionally, it had a certain level of flexibility and strength, allowing it to be directly used for attacks.
With a single thought, multiple snakes surged out from behind Sasuke. However, unlike the original snake that had naturally formed, these chakra-formed snakes required Sasuke's control.
Meanwhile, the original snake didn't seem to need Sasuke's direct control.
It only needed commands to act accordingly.
With this chakra cloak, combat would become even more versatile.
This fighting style required Sasuke to adapt to it further to fully master it.
But Sasuke believed it wouldn't be a problem.
Watching Sasuke quickly control chakra to form so many snakes,
the White Snake Sage was even more astonished: "What terrifying chakra control... This kid's ability to control chakra might be even stronger than mine..."
Naturally so.
Sasuke had gone through numerous battles, whether learning new ninjutsu or training to enhance his abilities.
All of this had inevitably involved chakra control.
Sasuke's chakra control had unknowingly reached the pinnacle level.
With this supreme chakra control, Sasuke could ensure that all of his chakra was completely and precisely manipulated according to his will.
This level of chakra control was something the White Snake Sage couldn't achieve.
No one could surpass Sasuke in this regard.
Sasuke deactivated Sage Mode and turned to glance at the White Snake Sage.
"Thank you for your guidance, White Snake Sage."
"I have other matters to attend to. I'll return to Ryuchi Cave another time to seek your advice!"
With that, Sasuke didn't give the White Snake Sage any chance to speak. He immediately formed hand seals and dispelled the summoning contract.
He returned directly to the Sound Village base.
As a puff of white smoke rose,
Sasuke disappeared.
The White Snake Sage opened its mouth, intending to say something, but Sasuke's decisive actions left it no opportunity to do so.
Upon returning to the Sound Village base, Sasuke didn't know how much time he had spent.
But in reality, it had been less than a day.
With the mission to attain the rank of Jonin completed, the system's next requirement was for him to learn the Eight Gates and successfully open at least the Sixth Gate.
By mastering the Eight Gates, he would gain the Senju clan's physical constitution.
Sasuke was determined to complete this task quickly.
At the same time, there were two other objectives: joining the Akatsuki and capturing the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki to activate the second stage of Indra's chakra.
Fortunately, the technique for the Eight Gates was documented in the Sealing Scroll.
Otherwise, given Sasuke's current situation, it would have been difficult to return to Konoha to learn it from Might Guy.
Orochimaru sensed Sasuke's return immediately.
Though Sasuke had only been away for half a day, upon his return, his presence was completely different.
His aura had become more intimidating, especially with the subtle, wave-like chakra fluctuations.
Even Orochimaru was deeply shocked by Sasuke's transformation.
"As expected of Sasuke-kun! He's grown stronger in such a short time."
"A monster surpassing even monsters!"
Orochimaru headed to the training grounds, thinking there was something interesting he needed to share with Sasuke.
Finding Sasuke, Orochimaru saw him examining the Sealing Scroll.
He immediately spoke up.
"Sasuke-kun, have you already finished your training at Ryuchi Cave so quickly?"
"Yes."
Sasuke had already sensed Orochimaru's approach but didn't react.
At that moment, Sasuke was focused on reading the chapters about the Eight Gates in the Sealing Scroll.
The scroll not only explained how to train in the Eight Gates but also highlighted important precautions.
Sasuke finally understood why the system had identified his taijutsu abilities as insufficient and required him to train in the Eight Gates.
The core reason lay in the fact that training in the Eight Gates demanded a certain level of physical strength.
Not everyone could train in it.
In other words, to reach the Sixth Gate, one needed to enhance their physical strength to meet the required level.
This explained why, in the original series, Lee still couldn't fully master the Eight Gates during the Fourth Great Ninja War.
The physical strength required to open the Seventh and Eighth Gates was entirely different.
"I wanted to share something interesting with you, Sasuke-kun. Do you have time to listen?"
Sasuke was intrigued. Something interesting?
What could Orochimaru, someone only interested in forbidden jutsu, find interesting?
"Go ahead. I'm curious."
Orochimaru smirked knowingly.
"A hero has emerged in Konoha."
A hero in Konoha?
What did that mean?
"A hero who ended the internal strife in Konoha, a ninja who has mastered Wood Release!"
Hearing this, Sasuke froze for a moment. Was Orochimaru talking about him?
What was Tsunade doing? Was she planning to reveal his identity? If so, her position as Hokage might face controversy again!
"The inheritor of the First Hokage's Wood Release, the hero ninja who quelled Konoha's internal conflict, the successor of Wood Release, Konoha's Hero Yamato!"
Initially pondering Tsunade's motives, Sasuke was completely dumbfounded upon hearing the name.
Ya... Yamato???
