A few seconds later, Seimei had drained their chakra. Just as he was about to continue extracting the two's physical and mental energy, they were suddenly killed by attacks from other Iwa-nin. Seimei could feel their mental energy drain away completely and thought to himself, "What a waste." He then tossed their bodies toward the Iwa-nin ahead. Seeing this, the Iwa-nin quickly dodged. As they regained their footing, a figure appeared beside them. It was none other than Seimei. Using the bodies as cover and taking advantage of the distraction, he performed a Body Flicker Technique, appearing among them. **'Leaf Strong Whirlwind~'** Seimei lifted his right leg and delivered a spinning kick, knocking down everyone around him. The increase in his 'Constitution' attribute didn't just raise his chakra capacity and recovery speed; his physical strength had also been skyrocketing. Even without deliberate training, his power and speed now exceeded those of most Jonin. Because of this, when he unleashed the 'Leaf Strong Whirlwind,' it was just as powerful as if it had been performed by a well-trained Jonin. Looking at the fallen Iwa-nin, Seimei quickly scanned the group and identified the two with the most chakra. With two quick moves, he grabbed them. Then, using the same method as before, he deployed the 'Chakra Absorption Technique,' draining their chakra while using their bodies as shields against the attacks of other Iwa-nin. The two tried to resist, but Seimei easily neutralized their efforts. Draining a thousand chakra points per second, they had little chance to fight back, and within moments, their chakra was depleted, leaving them powerless. Moreover, they still faced attacks from their own comrades. A few seconds later, both were dead. Seimei, feeling slightly disappointed, tossed them aside, ready to repeat his previous actions. Suddenly, an Iwagakure Jonin charged at him from a distance. Seimei glanced at the approaching enemy, then at the growing number of Iwa-nin surrounding him, and sensed his nearly overflowing chakra reserves. After a moment's thought, he decided not to linger and leaped into the forest. The Iwagakure Jonin stopped and watched Seimei's retreating figure. He symbolically threw a few kunai but made no attempt to pursue. He recognized Uchiha Seimei, one of the individuals marked by the village as a priority concern in this battle. But because of this recognition, he knew better than to chase recklessly. He was fully aware of Seimei's strength; he could manage not catching up, but if he did, he stood no chance in a one-on-one fight. Besides, who knew if there was an ambush waiting in the direction Seimei fled? So, after some thought, Siguang chose not to pursue. His mission was to capture this high ground, and as for Uchiha Seimei, someone else could deal with him if they wanted. Siguang wasn't taking that risk. But why did Seimei charge through their formation in the first place? Siguang was puzzled as he questioned the other Iwa-nin about what had just happened, inspecting the bodies on the ground. Unfortunately, all four of the bodies had been killed by their own comrades, and in the heat of the moment, none of them had time to report that their chakra was being drained. After some investigation, Siguang found nothing. Still, if Seimei continued his tactics, his chakra absorption ability would eventually be exposed. Seimei was prepared for this. Iwa-nin finding out wasn't a big deal; it would just make them more cautious and create some minor inconveniences for his chakra absorption. As for Konoha... Even if this information did reach them, it wouldn't matter much. It wasn't a major issue, and as long as he didn't turn on his allies, no one would trouble him for it. So, he planned to continue extracting chakra. --- In the forest, Seimei stopped. Confirming that Siguang hadn't followed, he hadn't run far. From his position, he could still vaguely see the Iwa-nin through the gaps in the trees, aided by his Sharingan's keen perception. Seimei steadied his breath and without hesitation began using the 'Mystical Palm Technique,' consuming his chakra. It took over twenty minutes to reduce his chakra back down to 20,000 points. Seimei glanced at his proficiency panel; his 'Mystical Palm Technique' had leveled up from lv6 (7834/10000) to lv6 (7945/10000), gaining 111 points in proficiency. At this rate, if he continued twenty more times, extracting 300,000 points of chakra, he could level it up to lv7. "Three hundred thousand chakra points—it's no small task." Muttering to himself, Seimei closed the panel. He then concealed his presence and moved stealthily toward the rear of the Iwa-nin's formation. As for the battle up front, Seimei estimated that neither side would gain the upper hand anytime soon, so he wasn't too worried. He soon approached the Iwa-nin. Seizing the moment, he launched an attack and, after causing chaos, withdrew from the battlefield again. Siguang looked at the five corpses on the ground, his expression grim. Yes, Seimei had targeted Siguang's section of the battlefield again. Seimei picked on him because he was timid. As the saying goes, pick the softest fruit. Since Siguang didn't dare to chase, Seimei took full advantage of this sheep. Seimei was confident in his own strength and knew he could escape even if he attacked other areas. But with an easier target available, why choose a harder one? Over the next hour and a half, Seimei launched three more attacks on Siguang's territory, extracting chakra from fourteen Iwa-nin of lower ranks. Including his previous gains, he had accumulated 65,000 chakra points—one-fifth of his goal. But continuing to drain Siguang's team would be difficult. It wasn't that Siguang was getting tougher; it was just that his subordinates were nearly all dead, with no more chakra to steal. Watching Siguang fight valiantly through the gaps in the trees, Seimei decided to make one final large-scale attack. Carefully approaching the edge of the battlefield, Seimei seized his moment. **Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~** Several kunai flew out, aimed at various vital spots on Siguang's back. However, Siguang dodged as if he had eyes in the back of his head. Not only that, but he also freed himself from the Konoha Jonin in front of him and charged straight at Seimei's hiding spot. Seimei was momentarily stunned, surprised by the quick response. But he quickly regained focus and met the challenge head-on. Even though his sneak attack had failed, he wasn't afraid of a direct fight. **(End of Chapter)**
