Chapter 49: This Day, I Once Again Remembered the Fear of Being Dominated by a Genius Scholar!

"Chakra is an energy produced by the perfect fusion of various components of energy controlled by the human body. Through arduous training, the energy hidden in every cell within the body is extracted..."

Recalling Jonin Mikawa's teachings, Qingyu began a new round of training alone at home.

In his understanding, chakra was the combination of physical and mental energy, and with sage mode, natural energy would also be added.

Although the talent of this body was insufficient, perhaps due to his transmigration, his mental power was superior. Coupled with his persistent training during this period, he quickly grasped the knack, and wisps of chakra were extracted with 'reluctance'...

After finishing a day of training, Qingyu couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Feeling the amount of chakra flowing through his meridians, he couldn't help but shake his head, as it was minuscule.

Although he didn't know how much chakra others could increase in a day with diligent training, it shouldn't be worse than his.

Those ordinary ninja might never touch the threshold of Jonin in their lifetime, or rather, those who could become Jonin must possess extraordinary talent in some aspect.

Don't look at the late stages of Naruto, where Jonin had become cannon fodder and Kage-level figures became units of combat power, with only cheat-users able to show off.

But in reality, the status of Jonin in the major ninja villages could not be underestimated, and their numbers were not as many as imagined.

Qingyu estimated that without the dog system, he would be lucky to become a Special Jonin in this life.

After reaching this conclusion, he couldn't help but feel melancholic. He didn't want to court death, but life forced him to walk this path to the very end.

The next day, Qingyu, as usual, was training in his exclusive little world.

After learning the method of extracting chakra, his daily training content increased by another item.

However, he didn't complain despite sweating profusely; instead, he enjoyed it.

Compared to his former self on Earth, who was mediocre, struggled for a living every day, and had no dignity, he actually grew to like his current life.

Perhaps this world was much more dangerous, and one could lose their life with a single mistake.

But the feeling of having every effort rewarded, of being grounded, was truly captivating.

"Whirlwind!"

"Falling Leaf!"

"Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist!"

With a bang!

The wooden dummy used for training White Strike finally couldn't bear the load and was directly broken in half!

Qingyu retracted his gaze with dissatisfaction, as it meant he needed to buy a new one...

However, through his relentless efforts, he could now skillfully use most of the techniques in White Strike.

Although it was still a bit rigid and lacked flexible adaptation, he believed that with a little more time, he could definitely upgrade it to a higher level.

He still kept the Beginner Skill Card he received from his last mission and hadn't rushed to use it.

Furthermore, after learning about chakra, he had a sudden idea: since it was a form of energy, was it possible to replace spiritual power with chakra to enhance the power of White Strike, or even cause a qualitative change?

But unfortunately, his current chakra reserves were too low to show any effect; he could only try it later.

The wooden dummy was broken, and Qingyu decided to go home early today and start practicing chakra.

But before that, he had one more thing to do.

"You've been watching for a while, come out."

Swish!

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure instantly appeared not far in front of him, with a hint of surprise and admiration in their eyes.

However, upon seeing the familiar clan crest on the person, Qingyu frowned slightly, "Uchiha?"

In his memory, the Uchiha clan was completely mentally fractured, with extremely admirable and charismatic figures, and of course, also some idiots who didn't know their limits and had their brains squeezed by something.

Originally, he had some good feelings towards them because of Itachi.

But after almost dying at the hands of Uchiha Han, those good feelings vanished completely.

Of course, the rotten fish and shrimp that ruined the whole pot weren't just Uchiha; they existed everywhere, and this wouldn't affect his perception of Itachi.

It was just that he had no idea which category the Uchiha in front of him belonged to.

What if they came to cause trouble for him again? That would be terrible.

This place was usually not frequented by anyone. Although it provided him with great convenience, it also meant that no one would come to his rescue in a short period.

"Please don't misunderstand. Although I am also from the Uchiha clan, I am not here specifically to cause trouble for you. In fact, I was just passing by due to a mission and heard the commotion, so I came to check the situation," the person explained gently.

Hearing the other party say that, Qingyu's stern expression eased a little, but he immediately reacted, "You know who I am?"

"Of course, the future Fifth Hokage. I haven't just heard rumors; I've specifically learned everything about you."

Being called the 'future Fifth Hokage' to his face was really too embarrassing, and a flicker of awkwardness crossed Qingyu's face. "Learned about me? What, do you want to get revenge for that Han fellow?"

"No, no, no. It's just that Itachi always asks about you, so out of curiosity, I delved deeper. In fact, I don't like Han either. What happened last time was his own doing, alas."

"Itachi! Uh, I don't know your name yet."

Qingyu was a little surprised. The other person actually knew Itachi, and judging by his words, they seemed to have a pretty good relationship.

"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Uchiha Shisui, and I'm currently responsible for teaching Itachi."

Uchiha... Shisui???

Qingyu's eyes immediately widened as he looked at the other person. At this moment, Shisui still had a hint of apology on his face.

Damn it!

But on second thought, it made sense. Besides Shisui, Itachi didn't have any other friends in the Uchiha clan.

This guy was a super-genius level big shot!

Not only did he awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan at such a young age, but he also possessed a BUG-level dojutsu like Kotoamatsukami.

It was a shame he died young. Anyone targeted by that black-hearted old man Danzō usually didn't have a good ending.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Have you heard my name before?"

"I think I've heard someone mention you, saying you're a genius from the Uchiha clan," Qingyu said vaguely.

"A genius, I wouldn't say that. In my opinion, Itachi is the true genius," Shisui said, scratching his head a little embarrassed.

Can you stop being so humble, big shot!

You and Itachi are both geniuses among geniuses!

Please, spare me!

Looking at the shy and humble Shisui, Qingyu's mind was about to collapse. Do you geniuses ever consider the feelings of ordinary people!

PS: Thanks to 930608.qdcn and Changshengmen Lord for their rewards. I've also read many hilarious comments from fellow readers. You guys just want to see the Thousand Years of Death against Kaguya Otsutsuki, right? You want to see Patrick Star and SpongeBob SquarePants self-destruct together... Don't worry, it will happen. I will definitely write it later. If I don't, may my ten-meter-long [redacted] shrink to ten centimeters. How's that for a vicious curse?

Haha, just kidding. But I will write everything that's in the synopsis. Considering how honest Old Faceless is and how much I love you all, could you please give me more recommendation votes? Also, collections, investments, and rewards – I want them all~
