Chapter 851 : Awakening the cells!
Added 2025-01-15 21:26:42 +0000 UTC“Not bad. I didn't expect such a room to be here…” Fujin muttered. The room had over a hundred seals inscribed intricately throughout it. The seals were hidden so carefully that Fujin didn't sense their presence despite visiting the hospital so many times. Only when his eyes fell on the room did he realize it.
Tsunade chuckled and said, “Every Fuinjutsu Grandmaster said so. I and Orochimaru designed this room when we were still in the village. The seals in the room assist in this process.”
She sighed and added, “Unfortunately, the room was closed after Orochimaru betrayed the village and went rogue. I checked the seals to see if they're the same as I recall. Fortunately, they haven't been disturbed.”
Fujin said, “That's good. Let's start.”
Tsunade teased, “You sure are excited.”
Fujin chuckled, “Who wouldn't be? I never expected for a method this miraculous to exist. Even a small percent boost to my chakra reserves will be a huge deal.”
Tsunade nodded, “It is invaluable for a rank S ninja. More importantly, your reserves are still growing unlike mine. If you are careful and never trigger the backlash of this technique, I can't imagine how strong you'd become in 5 to 10 years.”
Though Tsunade had some reservations about teaching Fujin this technique, she truly wanted him to succeed. While the two didn't share much of a personal connection yet, Tsunade could see how important Fujin was for Konoha's future and why Hiruzen had invested so much into him.
Both turned their heads and saw Shizune running towards them while holding a couple of large scrolls. Breathing heavily, she said, “I got everything you asked for, Lady Tsunade.”
Tsunade smiled, “Good. Follow me.”
Tsunade entered the room as Fujin and Shizune followed her. She weaved the confrontation seal while walking to the center of the room, where a futon had been placed. The seals in the room lit up, revealing a circle at the center of the room and around the futon. Standing just outside the circle, Tsunade instructed, “Strip to your waist and sit here. I'll draw the necessary seals on your body.”
Fujin complied, taking his shirt, mesh, bracers and other equipment off and sat cross-legged on the futon. Tsunade motioned for Shizune, who handed her a brush dipped in a glowing blue ink. Fujin observed, ‘Interesting. This ink is quite unique. It feels like it'll assist in Yin-Yang chakra manipulation. As I suspected, Yin & Yang will play a major role today.’
Before she began, Tsunade warned strictly, “You already know the dangers of this technique. So, I won't warn you about it anymore. However, let me be clear! This process is dangerous. One slip from me, or a mistake in your chakra control, and you could end up crippled or worse.”
Fujin frowned and asked, “You've never slipped before, have you?”
Fujin didn't want to take any undue risk since he already had another method to increase his chakra reserves. Even though that aspect of the Myriad Tetragram Seal hadn't been tested yet and he wasn't sure about any drawbacks, Fujin still had a lot of confidence in it. The only reason he wanted to pursue this method first was because he was told it was rather safe.
Tsunade answered, “I have not. However, several old or injured Elite Jounins had asked me to try this technique on them so that they could contribute in wars. A couple of them suffered as they couldn't maintain their chakra control.”
Fujin replied, “That's a shame. I'll be careful.”
Tsunade replied, “Good. Until we're done, maintain your focus at the highest level.”
She crouched down and began painting intricate seals on Fujin's arms, chest and back.
“These seals will stabilize your chakra network and protect your organs during the process,” Tsunade explained. “They’ll also help me monitor your cellular activity in real time.”
Once the seals were complete, Tsunade sat across from Fujin. “The next part is… delicate. I’ll use my chakra to energize every cell in your body. At the same time, I’ll guide you to sense the changes and control the process yourself. This isn’t just a medical procedure, it’s a lesson in mastery. You’ll need to take over eventually to maintain your cellular activity.”
Fujin nodded. “I’m ready.”
Tsunade's hands glowed with a brilliant green light as she channeled her chakra into Fujin’s body. Her focus was razor-sharp as she began the delicate process of stimulating cellular activity. Each of her fingers acted with precision, adjusting the flow and intensity of chakra with a surgeon's finesse.
“Focus on my chakra. Feel how I use it to energize your cells. Feel how my Yin and Yang chakra interact with your cells,” she instructed, her tone firm but encouraging. “Once you get a feel, match my flow perfectly. If you falter even slightly, it could disrupt the process or damage your cells.”
Fujin closed his eyes, his face calm and determined. He took a deep breath and started regulating his chakra. Fujin immediately felt Tsunade's chakra enter his body, spreading like a gentle wave through his chakra network and into every cell.
At first, the sensation was pleasant. His body felt lighter and his breathing easier. However, as Tsunade deepened the connection, the warmth turned into an intense heat. His cells seemed to vibrate, humming with new energy.
Tsunade glanced at him, expecting the usual signs of strain, such as erratic breathing, tension, or even involuntary jerks. But to her surprise, Fujin had no reaction. He sat still with unwavering concentration as if he wasn't the one experiencing the pain and discomfort.
As he got a feel of Tsunade's chakra, his chakra began moving. It moved with a precision Tsunade didn't expect, matching her flow seamlessly. She could only think, ‘Impressive!’
Shizune, standing nearby and observing the process, couldn’t help but think in amazement, ‘What an incredible chakra control! It's far better than mine! It's almost as good as Lady Tsunade's control!’
Slowly, Fujin began adjusting the intensity of his chakra, fine-tuning it in response to Tsunade’s signals. It was a delicate dance, one that demanded not just precision but also incredible stamina.
The minutes stretched into an hour, and the process intensified. Tsunade increased the output of her chakra, pushing Fujin to match her pace. “I’m raising the output,” she warned. “Keep up, or this will backfire.”
Fujin didn’t respond verbally, but his chakra surged in sync with hers, adapting to the change with startling ease. However, as Tsunade continued surging her chakra, the pressure on Fujin intensified.
Almost on instinct, his chakra was about to surge aggressively to throw out the foreign chakra running through his body. Luckily, Tsunade read the signs well in advance despite the lack of any physical changes in Fujin.
“Hold it!” Tsunade barked. “Don’t let your chakra flare. Keep it steady. Visualize your cells and regulate the flow.”
A slight frown appeared on Fujin's lips as he curbed his instincts. In the blink of an eye, he regained control and channeled his chakra with the precision Tsunade demanded.
Tsunade thought, ‘Excellent! He has gone past this step better than Jiraiya and Orochimaru did. Only Sensei did it better than him. The remaining process should be smooth.’
Hours passed like this. Tsunade worked tirelessly, her chakra pouring into Fujin while teaching him how to maintain and fine-tune his cellular activity. Fujin carefully sensed every change in Tsunade's chakra and slowly grasped the process. While he couldn't help others increase their cellular activity like Tsunade could, his control over his cellular activity steadily and rapidly improved every passing hour.
At the twelfth hour, Fujin's body trembled slightly as Tsunade's chakra started leaving his body. Tsunade pulled her hands back, the green glow fading. She stepped back and let out a long breath, wiping a bead of sweat from her brow. She announced, “It’s done!”
Fujin opened his eyes, his breathing steady despite the intense effort he’d put in. He flexed his fingers and clenched his fists, feeling the surge of vitality coursing through his body. “I feel… incredible,” he said, marveling at the energy brimming within him.
Feeling the changes in his body, Fujin muttered, “My chakra reserves have increased by 32%...”
Tsunade crossed her arms and gave him a satisfied nod. “That's good. Minato and Jiraiya had similar gains. Not just that, your chakra recovery will be faster too. However, don't get cocky. You still need to train to adapt to this sudden increase. More importantly, you need to master your control over your cells’ activity right away. Until I'm satisfied with your control, you'll stay here.”
Fujin had no reason to oppose her. Under her guidance, Fujin began practicing at the same spot. It took another four hours before he reached a stage that satisfied Tsunade. She sighed in relief and muttered, “Good. As long as you don't actively try to overexert your cells, you won't face any backlash. Also, rest for a couple of days for your body to adjust itself.”
Fujin let out a deep sigh and said, “Thank you, Lady Tsunade.”
Fujin was genuinely grateful. Though his body was more sore than it would be after Guy's training sessions, a 32% jump in his chakra reserves in a single day was an unbelievable boost. Fujin's understanding of human cells as well as Yin-Yang manipulation had deepened too.
Tsunade got up tiredly and said, “It's almost midnight. You should go home and rest. Approach me if there's any problem.”
Fujin nodded as Tsunade and Shizune began leaving, but his nod stopped midway. Before Tsunade could leave, Fujin cleared his throat and said without a hint of shame, “Actually, I had another request.”

Many thanks for the chapter 🤠

2025-01-18 08:01:15 +0000 UTCYeah. I recall Krillin needing over 10 sec to cross 100 meter (though I think it dropped to around 5 second in a few years). Still, that's too slow against someone like Fujin.
Devil Hex
2025-01-17 22:53:50 +0000 UTCYeah, I remember goku having to focus just to avoid a lightning bolt that he knew was coming, he was wearing a lightning attracting crown or something.
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-17 22:00:34 +0000 UTCIgnoring dbs Roshi (who somehow became strong enough to fight in that tournament), my first thought was yes. Then I recalled Roshi destroyed the moon in Dragon Ball 💀 Anyway, Fujin should be able to kill Master Roshi with ease. The reason is simply speed. Characters weren't that fast in dragon ball. That said, dbz Krillin definitely beats Fujin (most Fujin can do is escape with FTG). Of course, that's as long as we don't consider sexy jutsu 🤣🤣
Devil Hex
2025-01-17 19:28:19 +0000 UTCI would argue with you but I have seen Goku get scratch by a bullet and pierce by some alien laser gun 😮💨 Dragonball super really nerfed everyone. When Goku was a child he could tank Uzi's like a champ, in fact, didn't Bulma shot him in the first episode 😅
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-17 18:13:22 +0000 UTCYea he sealed it in „strongest kakashi” literally in the beginning
Szymuś
2025-01-17 17:15:30 +0000 UTCNah, Naruto would win. Blitz behind him and stab his heart with a Kunai or rasengan. Z warriors can still take damage if it's lethal or piercing/penetrating type attack. Z fights are like 90% dropping nukes but they can still be taken out but a sniper like attack. a chidori with spacetime could rip thru that, a chakra scalpel, the 3raikages finger attacks etc etc. As long as you know how to apply skills and abilities you can win against "stronger opponents".

2025-01-17 16:09:47 +0000 UTC@Dracule Newgate I don't blame you, because this was never properly explained. In fact if you think about it, even the shadow clone technique should not work based on what has been told to us. The manga specifies repeatedly that you need an exact ratio of physical, spiritual and natural energy to enter sage mode, but if you transfer chakra from a shadow clone it is impossible to reach this exact ratio without taking in some more natural energy afterwards. That's why my head-canon has been that sage mode is a special mental state entered via meditation, and what the shadow clones actually transfer over is this mental state. Incidentally this would also explain why Jiraiya never mastered sage mode but Naruto did, because there's no way Jiraiya would be worse at chakra control and balancing energies than Naruto.
psybermonk
2025-01-17 11:53:36 +0000 UTCI say 23rd world Martial arts tournament krillin or whenever he fought piccolo Jr is enough for him to be considered more than OP in the Naruto universe.
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-17 02:29:13 +0000 UTCSage Mode is obviously busted, so I figured Fujin would want a way to enter it without having to use the clone trick. Cause remember, Naruto could only use 2 shadow clones with sage mode because of the 2 other clones that were holding the nature energy for him. But there is a work around this, the curse mark. Its technically a lesser form of senjustu since Orichimaru created using Jugo's DNA. If Fujin could gain the research and then repurpose it, he could gain sage mode with 1) not having to be still to gather nature energy and 2) having to worry about running out since the curse mark gathers it automatically. (HEX, give him a saber sage mode transformation and my life is yours!!)
kash_kxng
2025-01-17 02:24:47 +0000 UTCProbably not child Krillin, but Z Krillin? Definitely
kash_kxng
2025-01-17 02:15:40 +0000 UTCOh😅, I really don't remember much about this subject, I just remember the old toad couple commenting on about Naruto's ingenuity when he transferred nature Chakra to himself by releasing one of his meditating clones. If I recall correctly pain was also waiting for Naruto's senjutso to run out when Naruto pulled this stunt on him. 😆
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-16 22:41:47 +0000 UTCI don't think that was storing either. They seemed to entering and maintaining sage mode. And then transfering senjutsu chakra to the main body
psybermonk
2025-01-16 20:23:30 +0000 UTCKakashi is 26 years old, do we really believe Hiruzen wasn't a lot older than that whenever he did this?
cory hawks
2025-01-16 20:18:40 +0000 UTCNo way, it's not that bad, is it?
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-16 19:49:20 +0000 UTCchild krillin unironically wipes adult naruto & sasuke off the map
rain
2025-01-16 18:49:38 +0000 UTCNow that Fujin has gotten so strong, do you guys think he could beat Master Roshi?
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-16 17:37:12 +0000 UTCIt can be stored in clones right? Fujin will definitely figured out a way to store it.
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-16 17:34:05 +0000 UTCI've never liked the idea of 'storing' natural energy. Ninjas are only able to use senjutsu chakra, and iirc even tailed beasts use some form of chakra, not natural energy directly. Idk if senjutsu chakra can even be stored, considering how it automatically disappears once someone exits sage mode.
psybermonk
2025-01-16 16:13:01 +0000 UTCIf he learn sage mode he will need to make a change to his seal so it can also storage natural energy, this would allow him to enter sage mode almost instantly just like Minato did just before he got one tapped by madara💀💀💀.
Yamir
2025-01-16 16:07:29 +0000 UTCNo I don't think so but the sabertooth sage mode might be different so not sure
Kwabena Kumi
2025-01-16 15:49:09 +0000 UTCSomething Fujin most likely will try and experiment with, I can’t imagine Fujin not trying to go next level when it comes to sage mode seeing how “overpowered “ it is
Kelevra
2025-01-16 15:20:08 +0000 UTCI think it will also increase the rate of which his Chakra actually grows seeing as he had it done while still developing. This might put him more in line with the body of a senju/uzumaki whereas before he’d have to train much harder than clan shinobis to reach the same level of pure strength
Kelevra
2025-01-16 15:17:11 +0000 UTCImo it's better to give Karin an incomplete technique and then ask her to conduct research on it. This avoids having to suspicions about connections to Konoha while simultaneously training Karin. It might even give him ideas for improving Tsunade's technique
psybermonk
2025-01-16 14:26:12 +0000 UTCMeditation by itself is known to strenghten the soul right? I wonder what would happen if someone deliberately maintained Sage mode via meditation for several hours. Seems like the required concentration combined with natural energy and increased chakra might make both the body and soul stronger
psybermonk
2025-01-16 14:24:07 +0000 UTCInteresting. I wonder if this will be helpful when learning Sage mode.
psybermonk
2025-01-16 14:21:21 +0000 UTCYeah it was crazy...
Yamir
2025-01-16 12:14:10 +0000 UTCUmm, this isn't canon 😅 Also, it won't increase his chakra that much. He had like 1000% increase in chakra levels and stamina in the war arc 💀💀
Devil Hex
2025-01-16 12:11:26 +0000 UTCMaybe Kakashi do the cell procedure before the war arc and that's why he is able to spam kamui against obito.
Yamir
2025-01-16 11:58:37 +0000 UTCI can't think of any other reason why he wouldn't explore this option 😅 So, yeah. Stupid for sure, but only option we can choose.
Devil Hex
2025-01-16 11:57:56 +0000 UTCIt would be stupid. He only weakens himself if he doesn't get it sealed. He could still use it if he needs it. I read this in one webnovel i think it was Naruto: the strongest kakashi.
Devine Satanus
2025-01-16 07:36:15 +0000 UTC😅 Ah, I didn't read properly. If thought you were asking 'if Fujin would find a way to train or strengthen his soul'. Yes to both your questions then. No comments about whether Fujin would find a way or nah.
Devil Hex
2025-01-16 06:58:23 +0000 UTCHad thought of it earlier. Decided to go with 'yes' (since we saw Danzo doing something similar), but it won't be limited to Fujin. Most Fuinjutsu Grandmasters can do it. I guess 'sentiment' is the reason why Kakashi wouldn't do it.
Devil Hex
2025-01-16 06:56:11 +0000 UTCCould fujin seal kakashis sharingan so that he can use it only when he needs it?
Devine Satanus
2025-01-16 05:00:18 +0000 UTCMaybe the % increase depends on the bloodline? Unlike Tsunade, Hiruzen and Orochimaru - Jiraiya, Minato and Fujin are normal people. We don't count Danzo, he was specially cut or he is not as cool as the others :)
Aldar
2025-01-16 04:49:44 +0000 UTC😑
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-16 04:31:42 +0000 UTCYes then. Not too complicated 😅
Devil Hex
2025-01-16 04:31:28 +0000 UTCYup. Let's see :)
Devil Hex
2025-01-16 04:30:38 +0000 UTCWhen Tsunade did this she got a 63% increase in Chakra reserves, Danzo only got 12% increase 😅
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-16 04:14:01 +0000 UTCI wonder, if Fujin ever finds a way to train or strengthen his soul, will his Chakra reserves increase again? Because Chakra is created from physical energy and spiritual energy or something, right?
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-16 03:59:12 +0000 UTCNothing too complicated
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-16 03:40:00 +0000 UTCI know, it was having S rank Chakra reserves and awesome Chakra control 😎
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-16 03:38:44 +0000 UTCThere are some requirements, mentioned in chp 410 or 409.
Devil Hex
2025-01-16 03:33:51 +0000 UTCWas considering it too when I was writing yesterday, lol.
Devil Hex
2025-01-16 03:32:53 +0000 UTCThe key thing is that it's not as effective when u are older...hes reached his limit but fujin is still developing
Kwabena Kumi
2025-01-16 01:17:36 +0000 UTCHe can refill the lake quicker.
cory hawks
2025-01-16 00:32:32 +0000 UTCWonder if this would work on Kakashi? My guy needs more chakra. And 32% is a good increase. He already had a lot of chakra to begin with. And he's probably going to mention that seal idea he thought of.
cory hawks
2025-01-16 00:31:04 +0000 UTCThere's a lot of risks to it...she will have to be amazing at chakra manipulation and I'm not sure if she is
Kwabena Kumi
2025-01-16 00:12:14 +0000 UTCI want to see how she will deal with Koharu and Homura and how Fujin will do worse

Hibrael Pereira
2025-01-15 22:56:03 +0000 UTCIf Fujin could learn this method in the future, he could increase Karins cellular activity.
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-15 22:48:44 +0000 UTCSo, to increase cellular activity someone just has to move yin and yang Chakra inside their cells in a very specific way? Because everyone's cells contain Chakra already, right?
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-15 22:42:05 +0000 UTCYeah that seal is like a golden finger 💀💀💀
Yamir
2025-01-15 22:26:21 +0000 UTCI think (in Fujins case only) chackra regeneration is the only advantage. Especially if it regenerates 2x faster and not only 32% faster, he will fill his lake much sooner now.
Dracule Newgate
2025-01-15 22:24:47 +0000 UTCI think his yin and yang training is gonna help him even more in mastering his new cells....if it's not mastered hes a ticking time bomb if in a tough position
Kwabena Kumi
2025-01-15 22:24:04 +0000 UTCYeah if I am remembering well, wind domain requires like 20% of fujin chakra and now with the lake he has like 2 times more chakra plus the 32%. Well if fujin chakra is 100 points with the lake will be 300 points and with the cell thing it would be 396 points. Now if he uses the wind domain is like only 5% of his total chakra. This is huge!!!
Yamir
2025-01-15 22:18:58 +0000 UTCI think the biggest advantage is the chakra regeneration, because in the long run, he would gain access to a fully fed tetragram seal faster than if he didn’t have it.
Yamir
2025-01-15 22:15:36 +0000 UTC32%more is a lot if we consider his reserves lake as well
Kwabena Kumi
