Chương 102

But then again, when they signed that seal/contract the transfer of power/abilities was already preposterous, so was it that problematic to think that Rei could now share his powers in reverse order too? Kakashi's thoughts were mirrored by others too, even Zabuza, who wouldn't faze by anything or anyone was beyond dumbstruck and speechless.

"I have to mention that even the side effects of getting these abilities, techniques or physiques is been negated. So whatever you get from me is contamination free." Rei joked by the end, in order to cut the sheer silence among everyone present. Daniel was the first to ask.

"Does it include us too?" Of course he had reasons to ask here, as he too was invited here along with everyone, thus he felt like if Rei didn't want to share powers with him, he wouldn't have asked neither him nor his wife.

"Yes, Daniel. You and Laura are included too, but I have to warn everyone here. Sharing the powers doesn't mean mastery. You will have to practice yourself and work hard. I had to toil for years in the beginning to even learn a simple jutsu so there won't be any short cuts if any power is shared." Rei warned. Of course the warning didn't land on the ears of anyone present. Everyone was fantasizing now. Even Kakashi. Daniel and Laura were trembling with excitement, but they tried their best not to show.

They had known that Rei was kind of gentle, and if they pushed him, it would be counter productive so they would wait their turn.

"So any questions?" Rei finally asked as by now he was expecting some kind of response but the bomb he had just let off was too much for everyone.

"Can I get any kind physique without any after effects?" Sasuke asked, finally breaking the silence among the powered beings here.

"Yes." Rei assured.

"Then can I get the same strength and physique as Thor's?" Sasuke asked. This made Rei narrow his eyes. He was expecting something different from Sasuke but asking for Thor's was a bit absurd.

"Why Thor? You do realize that you will continue to live for thousands of years if once your body integrates that." Rei reminded.

"Given you aren't killed." Then suddenly it lit up the bulb one Team 7. They hadn't even thought about that. Getting a Thor's physique meant that they would continue live long like the Asgardians. Wait, that meant Rei's age would be long too. While Team 7, Kakashi, Daniel and Laura were digesting that fact, the rest were confused as they didn't remember anyone of the name Thor among them. So who was he? And living for thousands of years? What kind of person might that be.

"That is rich coming from someone who already has that." Sasuke said.

"Point." Rei replied with a smirk.

"You really picked one of the most ridiculous options available."

"I picked the strongest body I've personally seen, who didn't even use chakra." Sasuke answered without the slightest hesitation.

"When we fought in Asgard, he didn't rely on chakra. Most of his strength came from that physique alone. If I can obtain that foundation, everything else I learn afterward will become stronger." For several moments Rei simply studied Sasuke before finally nodding.

"... Fair enough. I won't refuse. If that's what you've decided, then Thor's physique it is." Naruto looked between the two with wide eyes.

"Wait... we're actually doing this now?"

"No point delaying it." Rei stood up from his chair.

"Everyone, outside." Within minutes the entire group gathered in the enormous backyard behind the ranch house. The open field offered more than enough space in case something unexpected happened. Several massive oak trees stood around the edges while Zabuza silently folded his arms, curious to witness something even he had never imagined possible. If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

He and the rest didn't know the story behind this character named Thor was, but they were interested. And also see how the whole sharing of ability worked. Rei stopped several meters away from Sasuke before raising his right hand.

"The contract will handle everything. Don't resist whatever happens." Sasuke simply nodded.

"I'm ready." The contract linking the two suddenly activated. There was no blinding light or some trasnfer of power from Rei to Sasuke as everyone was hoping to see instead Sasuke's entire body stiffened.

"... Ghh!" Every muscle contracted violently. It felt as though molten metal had been poured directly into his veins. His bones groaned beneath unbearable pressure while every organ instinctively struggled to adapt to the overwhelming vitality now flooding his body. His heartbeat accelerated. BOOM! The pulse echoed loudly enough that everyone nearby heard it. His skin flushed crimson as veins momentarily bulged beneath the surface before gradually calming down.

Every cell inside him was changing, becoming denser, stronger and far more resilient than any ordinary human body should ever be. Naruto instinctively took a step forward.

"Sasuke!"

"I'm... fine..." Despite the pain, Sasuke refused to fall to one knee. His teeth remained clenched as sweat poured from his forehead, yet after several long moments the violent transformation finally subsided. The golden markings disappeared while the last traces of lightning faded into the air. Rei found all of this very weird as he wasn't expecting such a reaction from Sasuke because he had none when he received it. Why was this? Did the constant changes in his body made him immune to change Thor brought later?

He would have to find out later after research. Sasuke slowly opened his eyes.

"... It's over." He lowered his head and stared at his own hands. His breathing had become deeper. His heartbeat steadier. Even standing perfectly still, he could feel unimaginable strength resting beneath his skin, waiting to be used.

"... Incredible. So this is how you feel every second of the day." Sasuke said. He slowly clenched his fist. The sound alone resembled thick steel cables tightening. Rei smiled faintly.

"Remember you inherited the physique, not my experience with it. Your body has changed, but learning how to use it properly is entirely up to you." Sasuke gave a silent nod before turning toward one of the massive oak trees standing near the edge of the field.

"I need to test it." Sasuke used no chakra or Sharingan as he drew back his fist. And the punched. The explosion of air startled everyone. The enormous trunk didn't merely crack., it burst apart. Splinters erupted in every direction while the upper half of the ancient tree separated completely before crashing into the ground with a thunderous impact. Everyone was dumbstruck just like before with their jaws wide open. They could see that his body wasn't reinforced with chakra to have that kind of strength.

And this was apparently when Sasuke hadn't fully mastered yet. Now Jugo understood where the monstrous strength of Rei came from when he fought him. This was beyond normal and they hadn't even met Thor. Now they were more than curious.

"Sasuke you will need to control your strength or people might actually die." Kakashi reminded.

"I will practice to keep it under wraps." Sasuke promised. But right now he was beyond exhilaration. Because not only had his strength reached beyond standard now, he could also feel that his eyes had reached the three tomoe sharingan, and also his lightning affinity had just reached new heights. He was sure that if he fought his brother now, he wouldn't be as pathetic as he was like last time. Rei nodded in satisfaction before looking away from Sasuke and toward the rest of the group.

"Now..." he said calmly.

"Who wants to go next?" Naruto's hand shot into the air before Rei had even finished speaking.

"ME!" The blond practically jumped where he stood, his face overflowing with excitement.

"I volunteer! Pick me next!" Several people chuckled while Kakashi rubbed his forehead beneath his forehead protector. Rei simply pointed at Naruto.

"You'll be the last."

"... Eh?"

"Why?"

"Because unlike everyone else, I actually have to think before deciding what to give you." Rei answered honestly.

"You already have an unusual body, massive chakra reserves and... other circumstances that make your case different."

"That's not fair. I want to be like Thor. Use the hammer and fly around." Naruto responded.

"And be exactly as the same as Sasuke?" Rei asked. This question alone earned a smirk from Sasuke as he looked at Naruto signifying that Naruto was trying to be like him, which pissed Naruto off and at that point alone he decided that he wouldn't choose Thor's physique. Naruto didn't say a word as he was sure Rei had something good for him later, after all he was his best friend. Rei then looked toward the remaining group.

"Since everyone will eventually have to make this decision, it's better if I tell you exactly what options are available."

"The first is the Uzumaki Bloodline. Increased vitality, life force, recovery and naturally larger chakra reserves."

"The second is the Uchiha Bloodline. Better chakra quality, stronger ocular compatibility and a chance toward Sharingan and it's evolution."
