The sun rose and set. In the blink of an eye, a week had passed. That afternoon. On the west side of the base. Somewhere in the forest. Seimei, wielding a short sword, faced three Konoha Chunin alone. At first, the three of them could still keep up with Seimei. However, as the fight progressed, one of them suddenly froze in place, staring wide-eyed as Seimei's short sword came straight at him, unable to move. Seeing this, another Konoha Chunin quickly stepped forward to block Seimei's strike. At the same time, the third Konoha Chunin, holding a kunai, stabbed straight at Seimei's back. A faint sense of danger hit him, and Seimei glanced back. In an instant, he channeled a large amount of Wind Release chakra into his short sword. Buzz~ A faint blue glow appeared on the blade, enveloping Seimei, making him seem like he merged with the sword. Next, Seimei's right hand holding the sword moved slightly, pointing the tip forward. The next moment, the blue glow flared up, and Seimei, along with his sword, disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was standing behind Senta Onoya, with the short sword pressed against Onoya's back. Seeing this, the two Konoha Chunin quickly put down their weapons in surrender. One of them spoke helplessly, "Captain, your 'Flash Sword Technique' has gotten even faster; we can't keep up anymore." "Yeah!" The other nodded in agreement, "And your 'Illusion Sword Technique' has also gotten much stronger. Onoya still hasn't woken up." Saying this, he looked at the still motionless Senta Onoya. That's right, after a week of practice, Seimei had developed both the 'Illusion Sword Technique' and 'Flash Sword Technique'. Onoya had fallen victim to the 'Illusion Sword Technique,' which is why he was frozen. As for Seimei's disappearance and reappearance, it was due to him using the 'Flash Sword Technique.' Of course, as the first Chunin mentioned, when using the 'Flash Sword Technique,' Seimei's speed was greatly enhanced due to the Wind Release chakra. But it wasn't actual teleportation. To an average Chunin, the difference might be negligible since they couldn't keep up either way. However, against Jonin, the difference was significant. One was merely extreme speed with a traceable path, while the other was spatial movement, making it almost impossible to defend against without the right skills. Even if Seimei could further improve the 'Flash Sword Technique' to match teleportation speeds in close combat, a fast speed still wasn't teleportation—they were fundamentally different concepts. Seimei sheathed his sword and, hearing his subordinates' words, responded calmly, "This is nothing. It may be enough to deal with you, but it's still far from enough to handle Jonin." Saying this, he dispelled the illusion on Senta Onoya. As soon as Onoya regained his senses, he immediately raised the kunai in his hand, ready to fight someone. But when he noticed the surroundings, especially the two teammates standing beside him, he let out a wry smile, "I got caught again, didn't I?" The other two shrugged, the meaning evident. "Alright, you guys go train on your own for now." After finishing the day's routine training, Seimei didn't want to waste time and dismissed them. "Understood, Captain!" Hearing his words, the three responded and walked away with arms around each other. After they had left, Seimei activated the proficiency panel. The familiar light blue screen appeared: [Name: Uchiha Seimei Age: 12 Physique: 12 Spirit: 15 Chakra: 27100 (31700 → 33268) Bloodline: Sharingan · Three Tomoe (9999/10000) Skills: Chakra Refinement: lv5 (261/5000) Wind Release: Wind Blade: lv2 (112/500) → lv4 (750/2000) Shadow Clone Technique: lv3 (180/1000) → lv3 (290/1000) Chakra Absorption Technique: lv5 (1815/5000) → lv5 (1920/5000) Rasengan: lv4 (640/2000) → lv4 (1390/2000) Medical Ninjutsu: lv6 (1865/10000) → lv6 (3727/10000) Chakra Scalpel: lv4 (495/2000) → lv4 (702/2000) Mind Reflection Technique: lv7 (4885/20000) Sword Technique: lv6 (512/10000) → lv6 (1350/10000) *Illusion Sword Technique: lv2 (20/500) *Flash Sword Technique: lv1 (160/200) Chakra Control: lv4 (1574/2000) → lv4 (1805/2000) Mastered Skills: ] Compared to a week ago, two new skills—'Illusion Sword Technique' and 'Flash Sword Technique'—had appeared on his panel! Just as he expected, once he successfully developed these two sword techniques, the panel recognized them, allowing him to quickly level them up by accumulating proficiency. Because of this, he was able to use them in battle after just a few days. It should be noted that developing a new jutsu typically takes others months, if not years. During that time, even performing the technique consistently is a challenge, let alone using it in combat. But for him? In just a few days, his proficiency had reached lv2, which was already at a skilled level, not merely beginner. The gap between him and others was clear. Using this advantage, Seimei could develop techniques tailored to his needs, paving a path unique to himself. For a moment, many new ideas popped into Seimei's mind, but he soon suppressed them. Why? Because his current knowledge was still too shallow. Developing the 'Illusion Sword Technique' and 'Flash Sword Technique' was due not only to his creativity but also the influence of 'Genjutsu: Sharingan,' 'Sword Technique,' and 'Wind Release: Great Breakthrough.' For now, developing more advanced techniques was simply unrealistic. As they say, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step; without the small streams, there can be no rivers or seas." Without enough accumulation, all his ideas were just castles in the air. For now, his focus should be on learning from predecessors and enriching his knowledge. Only with a solid foundation could he talk about forging his own path; otherwise, it was just empty talk. "Inhale... Exhale..." Seimei took a deep breath and slowly let it out. He opened his eyes, closed the panel, and calmed his mind before proceeding with the next skill on his training plan. About half an hour later, his rest period ended. Seimei paused his training and then led his subordinates to resume their patrol duties. By the time their tasks were completed, the sky was already darkening. Returning to the base, Seimei, after confirming there were no pressing matters, left a Shadow Clone behind and went to his secret base. There, he resumed his rigorous training. Although some of his skills had recently been perfected and no longer required further practice, the amount of chakra he had at his disposal each day hadn't decreased. Seimei wasn't about to waste it, so he allocated that chakra to other skills. This naturally increased the time he spent on these skills. With this increase in one area and decrease in another, the amount of time he needed for training each day hadn't changed much. Thus, time remained tight for him, with only about four hours of sleep per day. However, Seimei was used to this busy yet fulfilling life and didn't mind it. That's all for today.
