Three days later. Morning. Northwest of the base camp. In the training ground. Seimei held a short sword and practiced 'swordsmanship' over and over again. He moved swiftly and focused, occasionally stopping to think for a while, obviously very serious. That's right, he planned to focus on practicing 'Reflection Technique' during this time. However, the amount of chakra he could recover every day was limited, and it would be exhausted in more than two hours at most. There was still a lot of time left besides refining Chakra. Therefore, he allocated a small portion of Chakra to practice 'swordsmanship', which didn't consume much Chakra but was very time-consuming. At the same time, he also wanted to take advantage of this peaceful time to carefully consider the future development of 'swordsmanship'. A long time ago, when he first learned 'Konoha-Style Kenjutsu', he wondered if he could create a special move similar to Crescent Moon Dance. Unfortunately, he never had the time. Now was the perfect opportunity, as he had almost ten days to recuperate and could use this time to think carefully. First of all, he could give up on flashy moves. With his current 'swordsmanship' level, coupled with the three-tomoe Sharingan, even normal attacks were enough to pose a great threat to the target. Therefore, some technical moves could be ignored. Secondly, he could also abandon the route of simply enhancing the power of sword moves. Most ninjas in the ninja world were fragile, and as long as they were hit, they would be injured, so there was no need to increase the power of sword moves. As for those ninjas who weren't fragile, even if he enhanced the power of his sword moves, he might not be able to break through their defenses. In such cases, he could completely use other skills to attack, such as the 'Wind Style: Rasenshuriken' that was already on his development list. As Naruto's ultimate move in the future, and a forbidden technique written into the Sealed Book, the power of this technique was unquestionable and could completely take on the responsibility of breaking defenses. Therefore, he didn't need to waste energy on enhancing the power of his sword moves. Considering his fighting habits, Seimei felt that he should develop special moves towards functionality to help him better launch attacks. Currently, Seimei had three preliminary ideas. The first was to follow the path of 'Crescent Moon Dance' and create a sword move that combined reality and illusion, allowing him to launch multiple attacks in an instant, thereby increasing the difficulty for the enemy to defend. Of course, he definitely couldn't learn 'Crescent Moon Dance' and split into two shadow clones to cooperate in the attack. With his future massive amount of Chakra, this kind of attack consumed too much Chakra and was simply not worth it. He should learn from the 'Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique' developed by the Third Hokage. In this way, the consumption should be acceptable. As for how to learn from it... It was very simple, either use the Sharingan to copy this ninjutsu or develop it himself. The former required an opportunity. It wasn't realistic to expect Hiruzen Sarutobi to use it, but Orochimaru inherited Hiruzen's mantle and also knew this ninjutsu, so maybe he could see it on the battlefield. At that time, he could just secretly copy it. The latter wasn't wishful thinking either. After all, Hiruzen Sarutobi developed this technique from the inspiration of the 'Shadow Clone Technique'. And he had already learned the 'Shadow Clone Technique', so he could completely create the 'Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique' based on its principles. Seimei was very confident about this. With the proficiency panel, as long as he leveled up the 'Shadow Clone Technique' to a high enough level and fully understood its principles. Then, with the idea in mind, it wouldn't be too difficult to develop the 'Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique' on this basis. And after developing this technique, it would be very easy to create the sword move he wanted. Seimei temporarily named this move 'Shadow Sword Technique'. Its final function should be to allow every sword he swung to switch between single and multiple attacks at will. In this way, coupled with the Sharingan attacking from the enemy's blind spot, it would be very difficult for the enemy to defend. As for the second idea, it was somewhat related to the 'Body Flicker Technique'. However, it wasn't about combining the 'Body Flicker Technique' with it. Seimei had already tried this idea, and it was completely infeasible. The 'Body Flicker Technique' and 'swordsmanship' were two different paths. His idea was to fuse Wind Release with 'swordsmanship', allowing the person and the sword to perfectly merge into one through the connection of Wind Release Chakra. Thus achieving the extraordinary realm of "the person moves with the sword, the sword moves with the heart". Seimei named this move 'Instant Sword Technique'. To successfully develop this move, there were three prerequisites. The first was to completely master the Shape Transformation and Nature Transformation of Wind attribute Chakra. In this way, it could act as an intermediary between the person and the sword. This wasn't difficult. As long as he leveled up 'Wind Style: Great Breakthrough' to the perfect realm, it would be almost enough. The second was to continue improving the level of 'swordsmanship'. The current lv5 was definitely not enough, at least lv6 was needed to try. He was already working on this. At the current rate, it shouldn't take too long. The third... Was to find a good sword again. The short sword in Seimei's hand was obtained from a special Jonin from Iwagakure. Although a lot of Chakra-conducting metal was incorporated during its forging, and its quality was considered good. But it was only good. To meet the requirements of using the 'Instant Sword Technique', at least a better sword was needed. Let's not talk about other aspects of this sword's abilities, at least its Chakra transmission efficiency had to be high, otherwise it would be difficult to fuse Wind Release and 'swordsmanship'. Seimei thought about it and felt that the Kusanagi sword was a good choice. Unfortunately, although this type of sword wasn't unique in the ninja world, it was definitely rare, and it wasn't easy to get one. Shaking his head, Seimei started thinking about the third direction. Compared to the 'Shadow Sword Technique' and the 'Instant Sword Technique', this third sword move was the one Seimei valued the most and was also the easiest to achieve. Seimei named it 'Illusion Sword Technique'. That is, combining Genjutsu with 'swordsmanship' to give the sword moves the effect of Genjutsu, thus achieving an unpredictable effect. The reason why this was said to be the easiest to achieve was that after 'Genjutsu: Sharingan' reached its full level, he could cast Genjutsu with every move he made. And this 'every move' naturally included using 'swordsmanship'. At that time, he just needed to change the movements that were supposed to be guided by his limbs into sword moves, and then he could successfully cast Genjutsu. Currently, his 'Genjutsu: Sharingan' proficiency was lv6 (2310/10000), and he was less than 8,000 proficiency points away from the perfect realm of lv7. Converted into Chakra, it was about 600,000 points. Even without considering the supply from the 'Chakra Battery', it would only take him a month to accumulate 600,000 Chakra points. Therefore, this amount of Chakra wasn't unattainable for him. What's more, when he reached the front line, it was impossible for him not to capture prisoners to serve as 'Chakra Batteries'. At that time, this amount of Chakra wouldn't be anything. However, thinking about all the work he had to do in the future, Seimei couldn't help but feel a headache. Fortunately, after making a plan, he just needed to take it one step at a time. Pulling himself together, Seimei continued practicing 'swordsmanship'. (End of Chapter)
