Capítulo 17: ## Chapter 17: Chakra Control
Picking up the scroll from the ground, Seimei released his Transformation Technique, changing back from Ryosuke's appearance to his own.
That's right, the 'Seimei' and 'Ryosuke' just now were both fake.
In order to make Furukawa relax his guard, the two had already used the Transformation Technique to swap identities before they appeared.
In this way, they could smoothly snatch the scroll from Furukawa's hands.
However, what Seimei didn't expect was that Furukawa, who had been playing mind games with them, was also fake.
A mere shadow clone could play them around, which gave Seimei a clearer understanding of the strength of a Jonin.
Clap clap clap~
At this moment, a round of applause came closer and closer.
The three looked in the direction of the sound and saw Furukawa leisurely walking out of the woods.
"Furukawa-sensei!" x2
Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko, who had just recovered from the shock, hurriedly greeted him.
Furukawa nodded at them, then looked at Seimei and said, "You didn't hesitate at all when you attacked just now. Weren't you afraid of hurting me?"
Hearing this, Seimei shook his head and replied, "Furukawa-sensei is a Jonin. Such an attack couldn't really hurt you. If we didn't have the determination to kill you, we wouldn't be able to take the scroll from you."
"Good!"
Furukawa nodded in satisfaction, then said to the other two, "You did well too!"
"Then sensei, do you think we passed the test?"
Ryosuke, who had recovered, asked anxiously.
"Of course."
Furukawa replied with a smile, "Congratulations, you don't have to go back to school and retake the course."
"Yay!"
Ryosuke cheered excitedly.
Mizutani Shizuko also showed an excited expression.
Only Seimei still had that serious expression.
After everyone's excitement subsided, Furukawa spoke again, "To celebrate the establishment of Team 17, I'll treat you to barbecue."
Hearing this news, Ryosuke became even more excited.
Even Seimei's mouth curved into a slight smile.
No wonder, he had been eating military rations for the past few days and was almost sick of them.
Although he would occasionally improve his meals, it was still not as good as barbecue. He was reluctant to spend money on it before.
Now that he could have a feast openly, he was naturally happy.
...
Afternoon.
Uchiha Clan Compound.
Seimei returned home, recalling Furukawa's pained expression just now, he couldn't help but laugh.
However, these were trivial matters.
Having 'wasted' the entire morning, it was time to hurry up and complete today's training plan.
At this stage, with the 'Chakra Refining Technique' unable to break through to lv2, and his physical and mental attributes remaining stable, the maximum amount of chakra he could utilize each day was 2400~2500 points.
Of this, he planned to use two thousand points for practicing the 'Reflecting Heart Technique'.
In this way, the 'Reflecting Heart Technique' could gain ten proficiency points every day, and his Sharingan awakening progress would also increase by one point.
Thus, in less than half a month, his Sharingan awakening progress could reach (70/100).
As for after that...
He would need to make further plans.
Because by then, his 'Reflecting Heart Technique' would be upgraded to lv2.
At that time, the chakra consumed for each use might change, and the effect on Sharingan awakening would also change.
Thus, the plan would naturally have to change accordingly.
But...
"Gather in front of the Hokage Building at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. We will officially start taking missions."
Thinking of what Furukawa had said when they parted just now, Seimei couldn't help but frown.
As he had thought, the village indeed didn't intend to send them, the newbies, directly to the battlefield, but they wouldn't let them idle either.
For the next period, they would likely have to perform tasks like finding cats and dogs, picking up trash, and babysitting, just like the students from previous years.
Although this was to familiarize them with the mission process and let them adapt to the life of a ninja, it was undoubtedly a waste of time.
And if he wanted to maximize the use of chakra, he had to ensure at least ten hours of meditation time every day to refine chakra.
Obviously, these two were contradictory.
Performing missions required time, and training also required time. There were only twenty-four hours in a day, and after deducting time for eating, drinking, sleeping, and resting, there wasn't much time left.
So, he had to find a way to resolve this conflict.
After pondering for a long time, Seimei roughly thought of three approaches.
The first was to enhance the body's natural chakra recovery speed.
This required improving physical and mental attributes, and there was no hope in the short term, so it could be temporarily discarded.
The second was to increase the amount of chakra actively recovered per unit time.
This required upgrading the 'Chakra Refining Technique', but upgrading 'Chakra Refining Technique' from lv2 to lv3 required five hundred proficiency points.
Currently, its proficiency was less than seventy.
Even if he meditated and refined chakra for twelve hours every day, gaining twelve proficiency points, it would still take more than a month.
There was no hope in the short term either.
So, it could only be temporarily put on hold.
Then, there was only the third method left...
...
The next day.
Afternoon.
Under the leadership of Furukawa, Seimei, Ryosuke, and Mizutani Shizuko, each carrying a basket on their backs, were picking up trash in a river at the edge of the village.
During this time, Ryosuke complained from time to time.
Seimei waded through the river, carefully moving forward while bending down to pick up trash.
If one looked closely, they would notice that his feet weren't touching the riverbed; his entire body was walking on the water.
A few minutes later.
Proficiency +1!
Chakra Control: lv0 (60/100) → lv0 (61/100)!
That's right, this was the third method Seimei thought of.
That is, to improve chakra control to reduce the chakra required when practicing ninjutsu.
For ninjas, the amount of chakra required to perform each ninjutsu was different. Using too much or too little chakra could lead to failure in performing the ninjutsu.
Even if it didn't fail, it could also result in a waste of chakra.
Therefore, how to precisely control chakra was a question every ninja needed to consider.
Through continuous exploration, the ninja world had formed a set of effective training methods, namely tree climbing and water walking.
For ninjas, gathering chakra at the soles of their feet was the most difficult, and the amount of chakra required for tree climbing and water walking was very subtle.
Even a slight mistake would lead to failure.
Therefore, as long as one mastered these two skills, they could basically master their own chakra well.
And that's what Seimei was doing.
"Panel!"
With a thought, Seimei summoned the proficiency panel.
The familiar light blue screen appeared, filling his vision:
[Name: Uchiha Seimei
Age: 10 years old
Physique: 6
Spirit: 7
Chakra: 215 (862→910)
Bloodline: Sharingan - Unawakened (57/100) → (58/100)
Skills: Chakra Refining Technique: lv2 (69/500) → lv2 (81/500)
Clone Technique: lv2 (1/500)
Transformation Technique: lv2 (1/500)
Body Replacement Technique: lv2 (1/500)
Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique: lv1 (1/200)
Reflecting Heart Technique: lv1 (65/200) → lv1 (77/200)
Basic Taijutsu: lv2 (1/500)
Weapon Throwing: lv2 (120/500)
* Chakra Control: lv0 (61/100)]
Practicing chakra control didn't require consuming too much chakra, nor did it need dedicated training time.
Therefore, Seimei quickly raised it to lv0 (61/100).
Now, when performing the same ninjutsu, he could consume about 3% less chakra.
Although it seemed like a small amount, it was not to be underestimated when accumulated over time.
Moreover, with continuous practice, his 'Chakra Control' would gradually level up, and the effect would increase accordingly.
Using the same amount of chakra to perform ninjutsu more times wouldn't that indirectly solve the problem of insufficient time?
The only thing that might be affected was probably the proficiency of the 'Chakra Refining Technique'.
However, his focus wasn't on that right now, so it was okay to be a bit slower.
