Grind is My Ninja Way

The sun set, and the sun rose.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

Just as Seimei had expected, after the failed attack three days ago, the Iwa ninjas didn't rush to launch a second surprise attack.

Although the surveillance around them had increased significantly, he at least had some rare peaceful time for training.

Not only that, but the arrival of these surveillance personnel also provided him with additional opportunities to replenish his chakra, ensuring that his training efficiency didn't drop at all.

Therefore, after three days of strengthening, his body finally reached the verge of transformation.

...

Inside the room.

Seimei opened his eyes.

Feeling the almost overflowing vitality within his body, he knew the time had come.

Carefully sensing his surroundings and confirming there were no outsiders, he began the final sprint.

Seimei formed hand seals and skillfully used the Mystical Palm Technique.

Immediately, an extremely pure Yang Release chakra was condensed by him, then flowed through his chakra pathways, permeating the intertwined cells and tissues.

Time passed by.

Three minutes later, Seimei opened his eyes and felt his body. The profound foundation still hadn't been triggered.

"Again!"

He muttered to himself and formed seals again, using the Mystical Palm Technique to continue strengthening his body.

Another three minutes later, the condensed Yang Release chakra was exhausted, and Seimei's body still hadn't undergone any significant changes.

He wasn't discouraged and used the Mystical Palm Technique for the third time.

Just like that, Seimei used the Mystical Palm Technique repeatedly, using the Yang Release chakra it condensed to continuously strengthen his body.

In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed.

Seimei originally thought seven or eight times would be enough, but unexpectedly, the difficulty of this body evolution was much higher than he had anticipated.

Now, he had continuously used the Mystical Palm Technique nearly forty times, consuming a considerable amount of chakra and condensing a lot of Yang Release chakra, but his body still hadn't transformed.

However, Seimei didn't give up because he could clearly feel that his body was only one step away from transformation.

After a short rest, Seimei let his body recover a bit and then started using the Mystical Palm Technique again.

This time, he wanted to break through this bottleneck in one go.

Once, twice, thrice...

Half an hour later.

When Seimei used the Mystical Palm Technique for the tenth time, an indescribable surge of vitality suddenly welled up from within him.

Seimei knew that this was the foundation he had accumulated from continuously strengthening his body over the past month, finally being triggered.

Instantly, a warm current flowed throughout his entire body.

At this moment, Seimei only felt a sense of comfort. The cells all over his body seemed to be cheering and jumping for joy, entering a stage of rapid evolution.

Fifteen minutes later, the evolution ended, and this state began to fade. Seimei finally opened his eyes again.

"Panel!"

Without any hesitation, he immediately summoned the proficiency panel.

The next moment, the familiar light blue screen appeared, and Seimei's information was listed on it.

As expected, with the transformation of his body, his 'Constitution' attribute increased from 13 to 14.

Influenced by this, his potential further increased, and his theoretical maximum chakra limit rose from the original 56,000 points to 71,000 points.

In addition, the maximum amount of chakra he could recover daily also increased from the previous 42,000 points to the current 54,000 points, an increase of 12,000 points.

Among these, 2,000 points were due to the increase in Constitution, which made his body more resilient and allowed him to operate the Chakra Refinement Technique for an additional hour, thus increasing his chakra recovery.

The remaining 10,000 points were the natural increase in recovery capacity after his Constitution improved.

From this, it could also be seen that as his 'Constitution' and 'Spirit' attributes continued to increase, the stage of relying on actively using the Chakra Refinement Technique to recover chakra was gradually passing.

Now, he somewhat had a hint of the natural talent of ninjas like Naruto and Hashirama - being able to recover a large amount of chakra every day without much meditation.

If it weren't for the need to develop his body's potential and increase his chakra limit, which still required the Chakra Refinement Technique, he would have long abandoned this skill.

The only fortunate thing was that with this skill reaching lv5, he could already operate it while walking, sitting, or lying down, without wasting too much time.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't have any extra time to practice it.

Looking away from the 'Constitution' attribute, Seimei turned his attention to the skills section.

It could be seen that because he had focused all his energy on strengthening his body over the past month, he hadn't invested any chakra in other skills.

Therefore, almost a month had passed, and these skills basically hadn't grown much.

Of course, the Mystical Palm Technique was an exception. Because it was needed for strengthening his body, he had gained a full 8,000 proficiency points in less than a month.

Now, it was less than 60% away from reaching lv8.

And thanks to this, his 'Chakra Control' had also gained a lot of proficiency, directly leveling up from lv4 (1965/2000) to lv5 (1450/5000). The chakra saved also increased from less than 25% to 26.5%.

This meant that in the future, when practicing various skills, spending the same amount of chakra would yield more proficiency.

In addition, there was 'Swordsmanship'...

Because he had often participated in battles over the past month, his 'Swordsmanship' proficiency had also increased considerably.

Currently, its proficiency had reached lv6 (5850/10000), only a little over 4,000 points away from reaching lv7.

Seimei estimated that lv7 was the limit of this 'Swordsmanship' he had integrated.

After briefly looking through the improvements of these skills, Seimei once again focused his attention on the basic attributes.

Now, his 'Constitution' had increased to 14, and his 'Spirit' attribute was 15, only a point difference between the two.

Seimei felt his physical body and spirit, confirming that they had basically reached the expected conditions.

Then...

Next was to awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan!

Thinking of this, Seimei couldn't help but feel excited. It had been nearly a year and a half since he transmigrated, and he was finally reaching this step.
