Naruto couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.
Absorb the power of nature...
Then, using the cultivation levels from those xianxia novels he used to read, develop a new path—one dedicated to immortality and eternal life.
Start with refining Qi, then build the foundation, form the core, ascend to the Nascent Soul stage... step by step, climb the ladder to godhood.
If he truly managed to create such a technique…
Then he would name it Panweichuo, the Supreme Path of Immortal Cultivation.
By absorbing the natural energy of the world—
And combining it with his own eight unique abilities—it would become a mystical and powerful art.
Using Yin and Yang as the foundation…
Harnessing elemental affinities as the Three Thousand Laws...
The very thought made Naruto so excited that he could barely sit still.
For the first time in a long while, he felt genuinely happy—like the path ahead was bright, wide, and filled with endless possibilities.
But for now—
To complete this cultivation method, he would need more time.
Naruto wasn't in a rush. He had time now. There was no need to hurry—slow and steady was the safest way forward.
But then—
A thought struck him.
He already had an enormous amount of Senjutsu Chakra stored within him.
And in the future, it was likely he could directly absorb the natural energy of the world itself—his energy reserves would become nearly infinite.
Which raised another question:
Could his methods of attack evolve too?
Inspired by this, Naruto wanted to create his own original ninjutsu—to enrich his combat repertoire.
After all, he didn't have access to a personal ninjutsu scroll, and the Academy only taught the most basic techniques.
Until now, he had only learned the standard Three Basic Techniques—Transformation, Clone, and Substitution.
If he had access to the jutsu scrolls left behind by the Fourth Hokage, he wouldn't even be thinking about creating his own ninjutsu.
Thinking of this, Naruto once again made a mental note to give Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo a few "compliments"… in the future.
But now—no choice.
He had to find his own solution.
Just then!
A sudden idea flashed through Naruto's mind.
He might not have a ninjutsu scroll—
But…
He knew of another power system that functioned similarly to ninjutsu—
Kidō!
Before transmigrating, Naruto had been a hardcore fan of Bleach.
He remembered it well.
Kidō—the ghostly magic of the Shinigami.
A high-level mystical art from that other hot-blooded manga world.
Divided into three categories: Hadō (Way of Destruction), Bakudō (Way of Binding), and Kaidō (Way of Healing).
Each technique required incantations and precise energy control.
"What if I try to recreate Kidō myself?" Naruto thought, heart surging with excitement.
In the next moment—
He delved deep into his memories of the Bleach universe's Kidō, combining it with his advanced understanding of chakra, ninjutsu composition, and his powerful analysis and deduction skills.
And just like that—inspiration struck!
He achieved enlightenment!
He reconstructed the Kidō arts from memory:
Hadō #1: Sho (Thrust)
Hadō #4: Byakurai (White Lightning)
Hadō #11: Tsuzuri Raiden (Electric Current)
Hadō #12: Fushibi (Hidden Fire)
Hadō #31: Shakkahō (Red Flame Cannon)
Hadō #33: Sōkatsui (Blue Fire, Crash Down)
Hadō #54: Haien (Abolishing Flames)
Hadō #63: Raikōhō (Thunder Roar Cannon)
Hadō #73: Sōren Sōkatsui (Twin Lotus Blue Fire, Crash Down)
Hadō #88: Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō (Flying Dragon Striking the Heaven-Shaking Thunder Cannon)
Hadō #90: Kurohitsugi (Black Coffin)
Hadō #91: Senju Kōten Taihō (Thousand-Hand Bright Heaven Culling-Sear Cannon)
Hadō #96: Ittō Kasō (One-Cut Cremation)
Hadō #99: Goryūtenmetsu (Five Dragon Destruction)
He didn't stop there.
He also reconstructed Bakudō techniques:
Bakudō #1: Sai (Restrain)
Bakudō #4: Hainawa (Crawling Rope)
Bakudō #8: Seki (Repulse)
Bakudō #21: Sekienton (Red Smoke Escape)
Bakudō #26: Kyokko (Curved Light)
Bakudō #30: Shitotsu Sansen (Beak-Piercing Triple Beam)
Bakudō #37: Tsuriboshi (Hanging Star)
Bakudō #39: Enkosen (Round Lock Fan)
Bakudō #58: Kakushitsuijaku (Call Bird to Target)
Bakudō #61: Rikujōkōrō (Six-Rod Light Prison)
Bakudō #62: Hyapporankan (Hundred-Step Rail)
Bakudō #73: Tozanshō (Inverted Mountain Crystal)
Bakudō #75: Gochūtekkan (Five-Pillar Iron Restriction)
Bakudō #77: Tenteikūra (Heavenly Net of Subjugation)
Bakudō #81: Dankū (Void Severing)
Bakudō #99: Kin and Bankin (Seal and Great Seal)
Kidō: Hadō—Mastered!
Kidō: Bakudō—Mastered!
In an instant, Naruto's mind overflowed with Kidō knowledge.
He felt as if he had become a true Shinigami Kidō Master, able to wield both destruction and binding techniques at will.
"So this is how it feels…" Naruto murmured, scanning through the ghost arts now stored in his mind.
He couldn't help but marvel at how exquisite they were.
Compared to traditional ninjutsu, Kidō was an entirely different system of power—deeper, more refined, with a much higher upper limit.
Some forbidden Kidō techniques even touched upon space and time.
Of course, Naruto couldn't replicate those right now.
But he didn't mind.
Because one day—he would step into the realm of time-space jutsu.
If nothing else…
He was determined to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique from the Fourth Hokage someday.
For now—
Having mastered Hadō and Bakudō, Naruto couldn't wait to test the power of Kidō firsthand.
He entered the sealed space where the Nine-Tails was imprisoned and began from the first spell in the Hadō sequence.
"Hadō #1: Sho!"
As the words left his mouth—
His chakra surged.
A forceful shockwave shot from his fingertips, sending a blast forward like a concussive explosion.
Naruto estimated it had the destructive force of a small bomb.
Then he continued.
"Hadō #4: Byakurai!"
A dazzling bolt of white lightning crackled from his fingertip, lancing forward like a beam of concentrated thunder.
The focused bolt carried immense piercing power.
In Bleach, Byakuya Kuchiki, Captain of Squad 6, once used this to impale Ichigo Kurosaki's shoulder.
And Naruto understood: in the hands of a true master, the spell's number didn't define its lethality.
With his immense chakra reserves, pinpoint control, and the option to infuse Senjutsu chakra, even the lower-numbered spells could become devastating.
He continued testing Hadō spells one by one.
Meanwhile, in the sealed cage—
The Nine-Tails had been indifferent at first, not caring what Naruto was up to.
But as time passed…
Its expression grew serious.
Because it suddenly realized—
None of the techniques Naruto was using came from any ninjutsu the fox had ever seen in the shinobi world.
Even if the Nine-Tailed Fox didn't fully understand how ninjutsu worked, he had lived for thousands of years and witnessed countless techniques.
But—
Among all the jutsu he had seen…
Not a single one resembled what Naruto was doing right now.
"This brat…"
"Don't tell me… he invented it again?"
Kurama's eyes narrowed, his expression growing increasingly complicated as he stared at Naruto.
At this moment, Naruto was already chanting:
"Hadō No. 63: Raikōhō!" (Thunder Roar Cannon)
In an instant, a thunderous dragon of lightning erupted from his hand and tore through the air, streaking toward the depths of the sealed space like a bolt of divine judgment.
When it reached its limit—
BOOM!
The thunder dragon detonated in a massive explosion, flooding the dark chamber with blinding lightning.
Even Kurama couldn't help but flinch slightly, his massive body tensing at the display.
What was going on in this kid's head?
He could tell—
Naruto wasn't holding back at all.
The jutsu he was crafting…
Its power was visibly increasing with each one.
What started as something simple—
Now resembled a full-blown Lightning Release technique on par with an A-rank ninjutsu!
