There wasn't much choice as to what to teach Sakura.
The most valuable ninjutsu that Mizuki taught Sakura was the illusion - Sleeping Scene.
This technique has great potential for development, and if used well it may even change the world.
But what Sakura needs now is a ninjutsu that can improve her combat ability. The only thing Mizuki can use that can be compared with the Sharingan and the Jinchūriki is the Sage Mode.
But how do you teach Sage Mode?
This is really hard to grasp. It is definitely not appropriate to completely copy Mizuki's training method, but continuing to let her practice controlling the tailed beast's chakra probably won't satisfy Sakura.
Methods that are too dangerous are not advisable, and methods that are too radical are even worse.
However, Sakura can already sense natural energy, so she can first become familiar with natural energy through meditation, without having to practice controlling the tailed beast chakra step by step.
Of course, allowing the tailed beast's chakra to enter the body and absorbing natural energy are absolutely forbidden.
"Sage Mode?"
Sakura was very happy. This extremely powerful ninjutsu, let's call it ninjutsu for now, Sakura had seen Mizuki use it several times.
Sakura can barely sense the limits of Mizuki's normal strength, but when Mizuki activates his Sage Mode, he is completely out of the realm of an ordinary ninja. This is what makes Mizuki so intimidating and intimidating.
The scarcity of sages in the ninja world is one reason, but the key is that Mizuki's sage mode basically does not rely on any inheritance and is completely self-created, which means that this way of practice can be passed down.
This is completely different from obtaining a secret technique or bloodline limit by luck.
With the example of the first immortal, if the conditions are right, Shuimu can copy this miracle to others. This is the fundamental reason why others dare not provoke him. No one knows whether Shuimu has another power hidden in a secret place.
"I can already practice Sage Mode?"
"Don't think too much, it's still early."
Shuimu is like a bucket of cold water on your head.
"You can't stop training in different chakras, and you have to complete other tasks, and you'll have to take exams on everything! Even if you want to learn new ninjutsu, it doesn't mean you can neglect the previous lessons. I didn't arrange to teach you, but you strongly requested it. If you can't do all of this, it's better to give up as soon as possible!"
"knew!"
Sakura shrank her neck. Mizuki had never joked about the training assessment. If she failed, Mizuki would not be polite.
It is not a good idea to provoke a master who is good at sealing techniques.
Sakura felt the torment of heavy seals on her limbs after failing to meet the requirements twice. After a week of feeling the pressure of heavy objects on her body, Sakura didn't want to experience that again.
"Where should I start..."
Shuimu was a little embarrassed. Understanding it himself was one thing, but how to make others understand it was another.
The practice method given to Kabuto Yakushi was just a rough plan, because Kabuto Yakushi himself was an insider and did not need Mizuki to describe it in detail.
If it was Naruto, Mizuki would just make the arrangements and let him do it, but Sakura's carelessness doesn't seem to work.
"What do you know about Sage Mode?"
“Very powerful!”
Sakura answered as a matter of course.
I knew this would be a meaningless answer.
"Okay! Some things have to be taught from the beginning!"
Some things are hard to explain unless you demonstrate them yourself.
"You should first practice the perception of different chakras..."
"knew!"
Sakura took out the broken horn of the Five-tailed King Mu, manipulated the power inside, wrapped the red tailed beast chakra around her right hand, and began her routine exercise.
After a moment, Shuimu asked.
"Do you have the hallucinations you mentioned now?"
Sakura nodded ignorantly.
"Well, let go of your perception!"
Mizuki formed seals with his hands and tried to slow down the speed of entering Sage Mode, allowing Sakura to feel the changes around her.
"What did you see?"
Sakura stared at Mizuki blankly.
"Sage Mode, absorbing those strange things into the body."
"Very good! Your perception is not that bad!"
The effect of training using the tailed beast chakra is quite good.
“Watch carefully…”
Mizuki stretched out his right hand, and a ball of scorching flame appeared in his palm. With the injection of fairy chakra, Mizuki threw it out, and a three-meter-tall flaming giant rose up.
"Those strange things that cause hallucinations are vibrating in a regular pattern with the fire giant!"
Shuimu smiled and released his perception again. A large amount of natural energy gathered in his arms. He swung his right hand in the air, and a big hole was created by the invisible attack several meters away.
In Sakura's eyes, Mizuki just moved casually, but in her perception, she discovered a huge secret.
"What did you think of?"
"That's not an illusion, this thing really exists!"
"That's all?"
Sakura thought about it for a moment, then asked tentatively.
"These things can be used to perform ninjutsu. Could they also be chakra?"
"I guess you got it right!"
Being able to come to this conclusion is quite good considering Sakura's experience.
"In essence, they are the same as chakra, but they are also very different. It would be troublesome to explain in detail. If you are interested in the future, I will teach you slowly. Now listen to me first..."
Mizuki asked Sakura to disperse the tailed beast chakra on her arms, and his own Sage Mode also stopped.
"The thing you sensed is generally called natural energy. It is a powerful force that is everywhere in the ninja world. You can regard it as chakra, but it is definitely much more dangerous than the chakra refined by us ninjas!"
"Natural energy?"
"Well, their distribution in the ninja world is not very even. Some places are slightly richer, and some places are thinner, but generally they maintain a balance and are not overly biased."
"Why hasn't anyone discovered it before?"
"Who said there isn't? It's just that you are too weak to know it yet!"
A strong person at his peak, when his perception has reached its limit, will more or less sense the existence of natural energy, but there are only a handful of ninjas who can use it.
"Sage Mode is a fighting method that uses one's own chakra to leverage natural energy for one's own benefit. Human power is limited, but natural energy is almost endless. Those who can use this power are the legendary sages."
Mizuki's statement was beyond Sakura's knowledge of ninjutsu. It took her a long while to digest Mizuki's theory.
"Is this still a ninjutsu?"
"That depends on your definition of ninjutsu!"
Mizuki smiled what he thought was his brightest smile.
"Do you think the word immortal is a commonly accepted honorary title like the strongest, genius, demon, pig, deer and butterfly?"
