"System, why did you say that after scanning and imprinting the ninjutsu and taijutsu from the Ninjutsu Scrolls into my mind, I would still have to rely on my own efforts? I don't understand that!"
"Explain to me why I still have to rely on my own efforts even after the methods for using ninjutsu and taijutsu have already been imprinted in my mind. Didn't you already imprint them into my mind?" Xuan Ye asked in confusion.
"Ding dong. This system can imprint the scanned ninjutsu and taijutsu into the host's mind, but they do not truly belong to the host. The imprinted ninjutsu are only at the state of having just been learned, not at their peak state."
"Therefore, the host must continuously use them and increase the proficiency of the ninjutsu or taijutsu in order to enhance their power," the system answered.
"Ah, forget it, forget it. I knew a system like you wasn't reliable. Let's handle the important matter first! System, hurry up and scan these two scrolls. Only then can I raise my proficiency, right?" Xuan Ye said impatiently.
After Xuan Ye finished speaking, the system responded as well.
"Ding dong. Reminder: if the host wishes to use this system's scanning function, the host must look directly at the scrolls to be scanned. Otherwise, this system will be unable to scan them."
"Ah, you sure talk a lot."
After saying that, Xuan Ye arranged the two Ninjutsu Scrolls before him neatly, placing them directly in front of his eyes so he could see both scrolls at once.
"Ding dong. This system is beginning the scan and imprinting ninjutsu and taijutsu. Congratulations, host. Imprinting successful. You have successfully learned three ninjutsu and two taijutsu."
That was it? I looked myself over. "I don't feel anything at all."
The instant Xuan Ye finished speaking, countless streams of data were forcibly stuffed into his mind. It was an odd feeling. A vast amount of unfamiliar knowledge was crammed into him all at once, like the bloated sensation of eating too much—except this time, it was not his stomach that felt swollen, but his head.
After some time, Xuan Ye felt much better. His head no longer felt so swollen, and everything seemed to have returned to normal. The only additions were the ninjutsu in his mind: the Basic Three Body Jutsu, Konoha Whirlwind, and Konoha Gale.
System, display my basic information, Xuan Ye ordered.
"Ding dong. The host's basic information has been displayed."
Very quickly, a white screen of light appeared before Xuan Ye, as though it had been projected. However, only he could see this basic information, because once, when he had asked the system to display it—
That was when his mother, Kushina, entered his room. She had truly startled him. He had intended to explain the screen of light to her, but she acted as though nothing had happened, as if she had not seen it at all.
She simply picked up several shirts and pairs of pants she had bought for him, then left without saying anything else.
It was only after that incident that he learned his mother, Kushina Uzumaki, could not see the screen of light projected by the system at all. And it was not just Kushina Uzumaki—no one else could see it either.
So he could only ask the system about it, to find out why he alone could see it while everyone else could not. After he asked, the system gave this answer.
"Ding dong. Since this system has already bound itself to the host, only the host can experience this system's functions. Displaying the host's basic information is also one of this system's functions. Therefore, only the host can see it. Others cannot."
Hearing that answer, Xuan Ye was speechless. Still, it fit the rules of something as advanced as the system. Since it had bound itself to him, only he could see the screen of light projected by the system. No one else could see it at all.
From then on, he was no longer afraid. He no longer had to worry every moment that someone would discover the system in his mind. Xuan Ye did not need to worry about that anymore.
With the system's explanation and his mother's personal test, he no longer needed to fear it. Now, he could use the system's functions openly and boldly in crowded places. He could use them however he wanted, without any need for concern.
The system directly projected his basic information before his eyes.
Host Name: Genya Namikaze Host Gender: Male Host Chakra Amount: Apprentice Ninja Proficiency: 1000 (Maximum: 100,000) Host Ninjutsu: Basic Three Body Jutsu Proficiency: 0 (Maximum: 10,000) Host Taijutsu: Konoha Whirlwind Proficiency: 0 (Maximum: 10,000) Konoha Gale Proficiency: 0 (Maximum: 10,000) Host Physical Strength: Genin Level Proficiency: 1 (Maximum: 100,000) Host Sub-profession: None
"Hmm, not bad, not bad. Sure enough, after scanning, I gained the Basic Three Body Jutsu. But why is there now a taijutsu entry below the ninjutsu section? I've never seen that before. Did the system just update it?"
"System, was that taijutsu entry just added in your update?" Unable to suppress the doubt in his heart, Xuan Ye asked the system in his mind.
"Ding dong. That is correct. The taijutsu entry was just updated by this system. Since this system was only activated recently, it is not yet fully complete. A minor error therefore occurred, so this system will immediately perform a self-update to remove the error," the system answered.
"An error? System, you actually had an error!" Xuan Ye became extremely excited when he heard the word "error." He had not expected such a high-class system to make mistakes. Well, forget it. Errors were normal, weren't they? Who did not make a few mistakes?
"But since there was an error, shouldn't there be a little compensation? To compensate me, the host. Look, I won't say anything about the error you made, but shouldn't you give me some compensation?" As Xuan Ye spoke to the system in his mind, he grew more excited and delighted, nearly laughing aloud.
Very quickly, the system in his mind responded.
"Ding dong. Since this system has made a minor error, the host's request is not unreasonable. Therefore, after careful consideration, this system has decided to give the host a small compensation to make up for the error made by this system. Please prepare to receive the compensation."
After the system finished speaking, another massive transfer of information began. A great deal of information surfaced in his mind, and countless pieces of knowledge were slowly absorbed by his brain. Gradually, gradually, he came to understand what was being transmitted this time.
After the system completed the transmission process, Xuan Ye was stunned by what it had sent into his mind.
Xuan Ye had never imagined that the system would transmit these taijutsu to him. He had not expected it to transmit the methods for using the Gentle Fist Eight Trigrams Palm and Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven. It was truly amazing.
