@AsianReaper It led to the creation of Chidori in the sense that failure led to the necessity for creating a jutsu. If that's what you mean, then I agree. What I'm trying to say is that the Rasengan and Chidori are not sequential. Consider this: Did Kakashi's failure put him on a direct path to creating the Chidori? Or, hypothetically, could he have just as easily created a completely different jutsu instead? Think about it.
