Reko looked tired after his climb but he still chose to read out the notification from his kekkei genkai a.k.a. his system.
"Kekkei genkai unlocked.. hmm not bad." As he read the bold words, his expression changed.
"Steal, very obvious from its name. I wonder if I had this Kekkei genkai inside me or the system screen helped me acquire it. The screen says unlocked..."
"I can't try it out right now. Let's wait for a while until I recover my stamina." Reko wanted to try out the kekkei genkai he had unlocked but he was not at his best at the moment.
Also, there was no mentioned way to activate his kekkei genkai ability.
He could only depend on himself to experiment and find the activation trigger because it did not come innately to him.
If not for the system screen notifying him, he would not have even noticed the changes in his body, that he had unlocked the ability.
Reko looked tired and wanted to rest before he begins to experiment with his new reward.
In the middle of the noon, for the first time in four days, Reko decided to pause his training.
The results of training on the mountain for four days were amazing.
He was able to increase his physical strength and endurance while also increasing his control over Chakra.
The time he took to climb up the hokage rock mountain with chakra decreased from seven minutes to three minutes.
And the time it took him to climb up the hokage rock mountain without any chakra and ninja tools also decreased a lot. Right now, he was able to climb up in measly twelve minutes.
A major factor was that he got used to the shortcut for the way up, and also the fifty minutes record was his first time climbing.
Now, he was not even scared of falling from the height. As he got used to climbing, and with the increase in his strength and control over his body, he was able to minimise the record time by a lot.
Though, he knew that he was still far from reaching a Jonin level physical strength, but it was a different case for Tokubetsu Jonin, he was already nearing that level.
Since, Tokubetsu Jonin were not normal Jonin, they were the elite Chunin rank shinobis who specialise in one field.
In Tsume Inozuka's case, she obviously specialised in tracking, and to some extent combat when combined with her companion beast.
"Time to think about activation of my ability!!" Reko decided to divide the exercise in two parts physical stimulation and spiritual stimulation.
In spiritual stimulation, he would try to look for the mindscape like Naruto did. While in physical stimulation, he would watch or spy on shinobi training their jutsu.
Because the name of the ability is steal, he did not think that learning from scroll would help it in any way.
He began to head towards the training area while also looking around the lively village streets. The pain of lord third's death seem to be decreasing.
"What is this?? It feels as if I am learning the kid's technique while also finding all the gaps in his attacks." He glanced at the kid who seemed to be training in Sayako's backyard.
He just wanted to watch the kid if he was training well while also trying to see if Sayako was there.
To his surprise, his vision and mind began to work quickly and started the analysis of the Katas performed by the kid.
"It is as if I can follow his movements, slow down my vision, and think faster... As if ... If"
"A sharingan has been implanted in my eyes!!!" He exclaimed out loud as he thought of the possibility. The traits of his skill seemed very similar to a Sharingan's ability to analyse.
"Nope actually!! That would be too overpowered. I would be able to remember and learn the techniques instantly if I had something similar to sharingan." Reko could analyse the moves but the real test of the ability would be done with ninjutsu and not taijutsu.
Reko thought instantly that if he had gotten a Sharingan, then system screen would have told him so. Why would it try to rename things?
"This is different, like Minato, his dynamic vision. Yes dynamic vision!!" He instantly recalled the fourth hokage and the special ability he had. His ability had passive abilities which were very similar to dynamic vision.
"Spiritual stimulation was not much help, while physical stimulation did help but the active ability is still not triggered, just a passive trait." He tried meditation and looked for a pool like chakra but couldn't find it.
Reko realised that he needed to have a physical stimulation for him to trigger the ability and increase the number of charges from zero to one.
"Woman perhaps? I did unlock it as an achievement of getting attention from kunoichis." He was not some NPC, he instantly thought of the connection of his ability with women.
"That could be the key to increase the number of charges to activate my ability." He was anyways going to spar with Tsume to check out his strength.
He could only try to win the match and then take what Tsume had promised.
"I have an increase in observation and my reflex should also increase along with it. This would further decrease the gap between my and Tsume's combat ability." Reko analysed before deciding to go to Tsume for a spar.
He was anyways in need of a spar to get accustomed to his physical strength. And with his kekkei genkai unlocked, he could test out it's effectiveness and compare it with the rumours of Sharingan and Dynamic vision.
"Hey there kiba! Is Tsume here? " Reko asked as he spotted Kiba training his taijutsu. He was able to analyse his movements, to his surprise, it felt as if he could perform it exactly like Kiba.
"She was just shouting at me, didn't you hear man!?? She's inside there." Kiba shouted before pointing to the room near the backyard.
Reko had gotten to know Kiba. Since, he had been coming and going to this place daily. As Kiba saw Reko, he rushed out to train outside with Akamaru.
(What do you think of the kekkei genkai?)
