“Shin, you can walk on water!” Ito Miyuki finally noticed what he was doing.
“What?
Where?” Abero immediately leaned over, running a hand through his hair as he stared at Shin with exaggerated disbelief.
“Oh my god, Shin!
How are you doing that?” Shin didn’t hide it from them.
He explained the method of controlling Chakra and demonstrated how to maintain a steady flow beneath the soles of their feet.
The two immediately tried it themselves.
Splash!
Abero’s foot sank straight into the water.
He tried again.
Splash!
This time, he lost his balance and fell forward.
Ito Miyuki didn’t fare any better.
No matter how many times she tried, she either stepped into the river or lost her balance and fell.
Fortunately, the water was only ankle-deep, so getting soaked wasn’t a problem.
“Why can’t I do it?” Abero grabbed his hair in frustration.
“I’m going to become Hokage!” “Tch.
‘A man,’ my ass.
You’re just a loudmouthed brat!” Ito Miyuki snapped.
She had already abandoned her earlier plan of acting like the big sister.
Instead, she was desperately trying to catch up with Shin.
Now she finally understood just how large the gap between them was.
She couldn’t even master something as basic as walking on water.
“Stop wasting your time.” Nakagawa Ichiryū finally couldn’t bear watching anymore.
“Chakra control isn’t something you can master by repeatedly throwing yourself into the water.” “Why?” Abero looked confused.
“Didn’t Shin practice like this?” “Do you think you’re as much of a genius as he is?” Nakagawa Ichiryū immediately realized how that sounded.
He didn’t want to crush his students’ confidence, so he quickly corrected himself.
“Everyone’s situation is different.
Shin can do it because his Chakra is unusually abundant and his control is strong.
If you two can’t manage it, start with something easier.” Shin rubbed his nose, feeling slightly embarrassed.
He knew his own aptitude better than anyone.
If he were really a genius, why hadn’t he even awakened his Sharingan before?
“Sensei Nakagawa, then how should we train?” Ito Miyuki asked.
“Finish the mission first.
After that, I’ll take you somewhere.” Abero’s eyes immediately lit up.
“Sensei, you’re the best!” His entire attitude changed.
The boy who had been dragging his feet moments ago suddenly became a spinning top, sweeping through the riverbed at astonishing speed.
“I’ll pick it up!
I’ll pick it up!
I’ll pick it all up!” He darted from one end of the river to the other, grabbing trash without stopping.
“Sensei!
We’re done!” Shin and Miyuki stared at him.
So this guy wasn’t lazy.
He just needed motivation.
One person had practically done the work of three.
After completing the mission and collecting their payment, Nakagawa Ichiryū naturally took a portion of the commission as their squad leader.
It was an unwritten rule.
Otherwise, where would Jonin find the time to constantly teach their students while also paying for everything out of their own pockets?
Afterward, Nakagawa Ichiryū led the three of them into a secluded forest.
The next lesson was Chakra control.
This time, he taught them how to climb trees by concentrating Chakra into the soles of their feet.
Perhaps the sight of Shin walking effortlessly across the water had stimulated them.
Both Miyuki and Abero trained harder than before.
They fell.
They got back up.
They tried again.
Day after day, they slowly improved.
Before they knew it, ten days had passed.
Uchiha Clan territory.
Late at night, Shin finished his final training session and collapsed onto his bed.
After ten days of relentless practice, the Three Body Technique had finally reached its limit.
The skill was standing at the edge of a breakthrough, only one step away from Advanced.
“Ding-dong, congratulations to the host for cultivating the Three Body Technique to beginner full level.
It has evolved into Advanced Three-Body Technique.” Advanced Three-Body Technique: Clone Technique evolves into Multitude Clone.
Transformation Technique evolves into Thousand-Faced Illusion Transformation Technique.
Body Replacement Technique evolves into Void Blink Technique.
Multitude Clone: Uses the surrounding environment to create Multitude Clones.
These clones possess greater physicality and more independent behavior than ordinary clones.
They can share part of the caster’s senses, wield a portion of the caster’s combat power, and transmit information and battlefield analysis when they dissipate.
A Level 1 Multitude Clone can possess 1% of the caster’s combat power.
“That’s barely anything.” Shin frowned at the description.
“One percent is even weaker than a Shadow Clone.
But it can be upgraded, so it should become useful later.” He immediately formed a series of hand signs and activated the technique.
Smoke burst from the floor.
When it cleared, another Shin stood in the room.
The clone looked exactly like him, right down to his expression and posture.
Even his temperament was indistinguishable from the original.
“Big Brother, why did you summon me?” The clone walked over, sat down, poured himself a cup of water, then picked up a pastry and took a bite.
Shin stared.
“Does it really have to be this realistic?
You have your own thoughts, and you can even eat?” “Boss, what’s so strange about that?
If I eat it, you’ve eaten it too.” “Release.” Bang!
The clone vanished.
At the same instant, the half-eaten pastry dropped onto the floor.
Shin froze.
A second later, his expression changed.
He could taste the pastry.
The sweetness.
The softness of the filling.
Everything had been transmitted back to him.
“This is insane.” Shin’s eyes lit up.
“Even taste can be shared.
Doesn’t that mean I can use Multitude Clones for training from now on?” He immediately thought of Naruto’s Shadow Clone training method.
If the experience of a clone could be transferred back to the original, then every clone could train independently.
Once they returned, all that experience would become his.
He wouldn’t have to grind through every technique alone anymore.
“Hehe.” Shin couldn’t help laughing.
There was only one problem.
At Level 1, Multitude Clone could create just one clone.
He needed to raise its level.
Thousand-Faced Illusion Transformation Technique: Perfectly replicates the target’s appearance, voice, aura, Chakra fluctuations, and spiritual power fluctuations.
It can also imitate some of the target’s basic abilities and combat habits.
“This one is pretty good.” Shin’s eyes narrowed.
“If I transformed into Uchiha Madara, then unless I actually fought, I doubt anyone could see through it.” Compared to the ordinary Transformation Technique, this was on another level entirely.
Void Blink Technique: No longer requires a replacement object.
Instead, it instantly distorts the space around the caster to perform short-range spatial jumps, allowing the user to evade attacks at high speed and launch unexpected attacks from blind spots.
Shin slowly read the description, his eyes growing brighter.
A technique that could directly distort space for short-distance movement.
Even without considering its offensive potential, its ability to dodge attacks and reposition himself was already terrifying.
Level 1 Void Blink Technique: Allows spatial jumps within a range of one meter.
“Isn’t this basically the Body Flicker Technique?” Shin rubbed his chin, then shook his head.
“Except it’s clearly more powerful.
And unlike the Body Flicker Technique, this can be upgraded.
A spatial jump could be a lifesaver when I need to escape.” His mind stirred.
The space beside him warped for an instant.
Whoosh!
Shin’s figure vanished from his original position and reappeared one meter to the left.
He staggered slightly as his feet touched the ground.
“It works.” His control was still rough, and the movement wasn’t smooth enough for actual combat yet.
But he had successfully performed a spatial jump.
Shin checked his Energy.
Only five points had been consumed.
“Not bad.” He tried again, but the proficiency of Void Blink Technique didn’t increase.
Shin wasn’t surprised.
If proficiency were still this easy to raise, he’d become absurdly powerful in no time.
Still, the Advanced Three-Body Technique had given him another set of trump cards.
With Multitude Clone for training, Thousand-Faced Illusion Transformation Technique for infiltration, and Void Blink Technique for escape and surprise attacks, his chances of surviving on the battlefield had risen considerably.
As long as he remained cautious, even if he was sent to the front lines in the future, protecting his own life shouldn’t be a problem.
