New Training

On top of that, my constitution came from the Uzumaki Clan. My total chakra reserves were already far greater than those of ordinary ninja, so raising my chakra level was not so easy. But now, I had the system.

It could even automatically increase my chakra. Once my chakra reserves reached full capacity, it could directly raise my ninja level. Thus, the Uzumaki Clan's disadvantage was completely absent in me.

After getting up and washing up, Xuan Ye looked at himself in the mirror. With his delicate, handsome face, deep black eyes, and glossy short black hair, he was already considered very cute in this Naruto world. In other people's eyes, he was probably just a little pretty boy.

Actually, Xuan Ye wanted to grow his hair out, because long hair looked very handsome and had an especially elegant, flowing feel to it. But at his current age, he could only keep it short.

After looking in the mirror, Xuan Ye took out a set of white clothes from his wardrobe. I rather liked white, because white clothes gave off a cool, aloof feeling. I felt that kind of aloofness suited me very well, so I chose to put on this white outfit.

Once he put on the clothes, his entire temperament changed. He gave off a perfectly polished, exquisitely crafted air. If he ran through Konoha's streets dressed like this, he would probably attract countless stares. Drawing squeals from some young girls would be perfectly normal as well.

Back on Earth, Xuan Ye had never been able to understand the protagonists' sense of fashion in the Naruto world. Naruto's taste in particular left him speechless. And why did Might Guy and Rock Lee insist on wearing those green bodysuits? Just thinking about it left him with nothing to say.

When he had seen Might Guy at the training ground yesterday, Guy had also been wearing that green bodysuit. Xuan Ye had no idea when Guy had started wearing such tacky green bodysuits, but he had been dressed like that when Xuan Ye first met him.

While complaining about those incomprehensible, bizarre outfits, he packed up the ninja tools and weights he needed for the day. Once he was ready, Xuan Ye found his mother, Kushina Uzumaki, and told her that he would not be coming home for lunch anymore. He would eat outside at noon.

Naturally, his mother agreed readily. After agreeing, she asked him why. He had no intention of hiding it and directly told Kushina Uzumaki that he wanted to train on the outskirts of Konoha Village and improve his strength.

Kushina Uzumaki strongly approved of this. Seeing her son, Genya Namikaze, take the initiative to improve his own strength made Kushina Uzumaki feel very gratified.

This was the Naruto world, a world filled with countless dangers. Avoiding those dangers was basically impossible, so one could only choose to face the unknown dangers. To face those unknown dangers without being in danger, one had to possess great strength.

After saying goodbye to Kushina Uzumaki, Xuan Ye ran toward the outskirts of Konoha Village where he had trained yesterday. That place was quite good, with many enormous trees and a fairly large stream.

Moreover, while training there yesterday, he had discovered many wild animals in the area, as well as plenty of fish and shrimp in the stream. This pleased Xuan Ye greatly. After all, he did not plan to return home at noon, and lunch would become a problem if he did not.

But with those wild animals around, lunch was no longer such a major problem. When he got hungry at noon, he could simply catch a wild animal, or jump into the stream, catch a few fish, and roast them. Wouldn't that be great?

Not only would this save the time spent returning home for lunch, but it would also improve his cooking skills, let him experience the taste of wild game, and allow him to do things he had never done in his previous life. Wasn't that exciting?

"Ah, fine, I admit it. I just wanted to catch some wild animals on the outskirts of Konoha Village and roast them to eat. I never got to do that on Earth. I had no money there, and I was an orphan, so doing something like that was impossible."

Besides, Earth was not like this Naruto world, where forests were basically everywhere. With so many forests, there were naturally many wild animals. Thus, trying out the fun of catching and eating wild game was not very difficult.

So, Xuan Ye told Kushina Uzumaki that he would not be coming home to eat, so that his mother would not worry when he failed to return at noon.

Before reaching the place on Konoha's outskirts where he had trained yesterday, Xuan Ye reflected on and summarized yesterday's training, only to find that there had still been many problems.

"Looks like I need to change today's training plan. I can't use all my chakra like yesterday, casting ninjutsu just to increase my ninjutsu proficiency. Today, I also need to practice Water Walking and Tree Climbing."

When he watched the Naruto anime in his previous life, he had learned that these two forms of training could improve chakra control. Once he succeeded at them, his chakra control would become far more precise.

Right now, for example, his control over chakra was still insufficient. This would cause him to output too much chakra when using ninjutsu, and the excess chakra would be wasted.

There was another possibility: outputting too little chakra. If too little chakra was used, the power of the ninjutsu would become very weak, and others would find it very easy to block such a technique.

There was one thing that made Xuan Ye feel especially uncomfortable. When he watched the Naruto anime in his previous life, he had discovered that the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, that lecherous little old man—

He always liked to use a ninjutsu called the Telescope Technique to hide somewhere and secretly observe others. However, this ninjutsu required a crystal ball as a medium, allowing the images to appear within it.

The Third Hokage used this technique to observe public security in Konoha Village. Now that Xuan Ye's father, Minato Namikaze, had taken office as the Fourth Hokage, who knew whether that lecherous little old man was still using this technique to observe Konoha Village?

I wonder whether that little old man was secretly watching me with the Telescope Technique while I trained. Xuan Ye did not like being spied on while training. No matter what others thought, he simply disliked it. It made him feel extremely uncomfortable, as though he were standing naked before other people.

He could only pray that the little old man had not been watching him. After all, he had chosen his training spot on the outskirts of Konoha Village. Konoha Village was so vast that the old man could not possibly watch everything. Where would he find the time to watch its outskirts?
