Although Sasuke's talent was at its peak, his progress in taijutsu practice did not seem to be that significant.
The taijutsu techniques taught at the ninja academy were limited to just a few movements.
Attack and defense offered nothing particularly special.
To truly strengthen taijutsu, quick reflexes, considerable strength, impressive speed, and keen perception were required.
In short, taijutsu performance depended, above all, on physical condition.
Sasuke started a sequence of attacks against a wooden stump.
He could think of countless attack combinations in an instant,
and even anticipate how to respond to each possible situation that might arise after each move.
But in the end, the stump was still just a stump.
After about thirty minutes of warming up with taijutsu, he felt his body control had strengthened.
With increased movement precision, his speed improved as well, and the power of his attacks became more intense.
The better the control over his body, the less energy he wasted in each move, resulting in a much stronger impact force.
This didn't necessarily mean his physical condition had improved, but rather that he was developing advanced body control skills.
The "perfect talent" granted by the system was truly impressive.
Even so, to truly strengthen his taijutsu, he would need to improve his physical condition.
"I'll have to put my taijutsu training aside for a while."
Strengthening the body is not something achieved overnight.
Like the development of chakra, it's a process that takes time.
Now, he could use his exceptional talent to quickly enhance his chakra control and ninjutsus.
Additionally, he decided to focus on kunai throwing techniques.
With the power of his Sharingan, his kunai throws would already be more effective than those of ordinary ninjas.
And, considering his incredible talent, this skill could become truly terrifying.
With that in mind, Sasuke took some kunai from his weapon pouch and positioned some stumps in the distance.
He moved about twenty meters away from the targets and, without activating his Sharingan, noticed a shift in his perception.
In his mind, various methods for hitting the target with precision appeared,
each with different trajectories and intensities, resulting in varied levels of damage.
It was as if he had been born knowing these techniques, which surprised him even more.
Raising his hand, Sasuke threw the kunai according to the methods that emerged in his mind.
In the next instant, the kunai struck the center of the target forcefully, with an impact as fast as a bullet.
Without stopping, he continued throwing kunai.
The kunai cut through the air in different directions, some spinning rapidly and curving, others following "S" trajectories.
In the end, regardless of the shape, they all hit the target's center.
After collecting the kunai, Sasuke felt he could do even better.
He imagined ways to make the kunai collide in the air, changing their trajectories before hitting the target.
Using steel wires, he could create even more complex and unpredictable throws.
Unable to resist, he began training this new technique.
An hour later, the ground was littered with scattered kunai.
Sitting at the base of a tree, his face covered in sweat, he couldn't help but smile.
"I never imagined kunai throwing could be used so powerfully!"
"If even a jounin makes a mistake, I could take them down just with kunai!"
In ninja combat, it's important to take down the enemy in a single strike.
Even a simple ninja weapon can be lethal if it hits a vital point.
Even a Kage-level ninja would fall if hit in a critical spot—as long as their defense could be broken, of course.
After a brief break, Sasuke began training his ninjutsus.
Kunai throwing could be a trump card in unexpected situations, but it had limited attack power and was easy to block or dodge.
Ninjutsu and taijutsu were, in fact, the foundations of ninja combat.
Taijutsu, he knew, could not be quickly improved.
But ninjutsu could!
Sasuke returned to practicing the Great Fireball Technique, believing that, with enough chakra, he could increase the technique's power to an S-rank level.
In the original work, Madara Uchiha could launch a colossal Fireball that required a battalion of Water Release ninjas to counter.
If Madara could do it, Sasuke, with his impressive talent, could achieve it too.
Moreover, he needed to learn other fire-style ninjutsus recorded by the Uchiha clan.
Each jutsu had a different attack style.
Although the Fireball covered a large area and had great power, it was slow and conspicuous, not the best choice for eliminating an enemy discreetly.
With the incredible talent he demonstrated in ninjutsu, not learning other techniques would be a waste.
It would also be beneficial to train chakra control, which could bring significant changes.
His taijutsu exercises had improved his body control, so enhancing chakra control could yield even more remarkable results.
Another point was the hand-seal training.
Itachi could perform ninjutsus almost instantly, and half a second could be crucial in a battle.
Training hand-seals would be helpful, and Sasuke wanted to try forming seals with just one hand.
This would free one hand for attacking or defending, which could be a great help in combat.
"Seven days left until the graduation exam. With these seven days and my terrifying talent, I can completely transform myself!"
