Rapid Progress

"Hahaha, this is the trouble of teaching a genius!"

As soon as Tsunade finished speaking, she drained another cup of sake in frustration. Jiraiya, however, pointed at her and laughed heartily. "When I taught Minato, I felt exactly the same way. But isn't a student surpassing their master exactly what we teachers hope for? So Tsunade, you should be rejoicing that you have a disciple like Uchiha Yue, not fretting over it!"

As he spoke, Jiraiya raised his cup, then suddenly remembered something and continued to Tsunade, "By the way, I think Minato mentioned that he and your Uchiha Yue had a very productive conversation. And, unlike the average Uchiha, Uchiha Yue actually shared the data on that jutsu called the Rasengan with Minato."

"Furthermore..."

At this point, a look of genuine admiration appeared in Jiraiya's eyes. "Furthermore, your Uchiha Yue proposed a very interesting theory, something he called the nature transformation and shape transformation of chakra. To possess such terrifying talent at the age of four—we can rest easy knowing they will be the ones to protect Konoha in the future. It's just that..."

"Just what?"

Hearing the sudden shift in Jiraiya's tone, Tsunade furrowed her brows and immediately asked.

"It's just... ahem!"

Jiraiya coughed awkwardly to mask his embarrassment before continuing, "It's just, Tsunade, you should remind your Uchiha Yue to be a little careful. I heard that someone is looking to cause trouble for him. You had better send someone to protect him. The guys looking for trouble are a bit tricky!"

"Hmm?"

Clearly, Tsunade knew Jiraiya's personality well and knew he wouldn't joke about such matters.

So, the moment Jiraiya finished speaking, Tsunade summoned several Anbu under her command, preparing to send them to protect Uchiha Yue.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Yue, who was training at home, had no idea that someone in Konoha was plotting against him.

At this moment, Uchiha Yue had just shaken off the fatigue from his training with Tsunade and was preparing to continue his practice of the Rasengan.

However, just as Uchiha Yue began to condense chakra with one hand, he suddenly discovered that his level of chakra control had improved by several notches!

In fact, he could now easily perform the Rasengan, which he previously couldn't manage with a single hand!

"This... how is this possible?"

"I can actually use the Rasengan with one hand now?"

Looking at the swirling chakra in his palm, Uchiha Yue felt as if he were in a dream. Clearly, he hadn't expected his chakra control to grow so rapidly in such a short time. He knew that just a day ago, when he fought Hatake Dansui and the others, he still needed both hands to control the chakra and form the Rasengan.

Then, just as Uchiha Yue was feeling slightly puzzled as to why his chakra control had improved so quickly...

A flash of insight suddenly crossed his eyes, and he thought, Could it be because I spent the whole day practicing Medical Ninjutsu that my chakra control improved so fast? No wonder. No wonder Tsunade said that once I practiced Medical Ninjutsu to a certain level, I would discover its benefits. So that's how it is!

With this thought in mind, Uchiha Yue extended a single finger, attempting to control the chakra and condense a Rasengan with just that one digit!

However, even though Uchiha Yue had spent the entire day practicing Medical Ninjutsu, his current level of chakra control was far from being able to condense a Rasengan with a single finger. Still, being able to condense it with one hand was a massive leap, and he felt his control had improved significantly; to ask for more would be greedy.

After completing his chakra control training for the day, Uchiha Yue reviewed his basic taijutsu, hand seal practice, and ninjutsu training. Once he had gone through his entire planned regimen, he took out the Human Meridian Chart that Tsunade had specifically given him from his ninja tool pouch. On this chart, not only were the human meridians clearly marked, but the body's acupuncture points and vital spots were also explicitly labeled.

Moreover, when Uchiha Yue saw that this chart marked specific points that could stop the flow of chakra...

His mind suddenly became active!

At this stage, I have already achieved a certain level of proficiency in ninjutsu, hidden weapons, and Medical Ninjutsu.

My current weaknesses are taijutsu, which is limited by my physical development, and genjutsu, which I haven't practiced yet.

I don't need to rush into genjutsu, but I must find a way to compensate for my weakness in taijutsu.

In that case...

Thinking this, Uchiha Yue's gaze fell once again on the Human Meridian Chart, and he continued to muse to himself:

If that's the case, why don't I develop a taijutsu style, something like the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist?

With this Human Meridian Chart, I can learn which points to strike to disrupt an enemy's chakra flow!

Isn't that the very principle behind the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist?

The only pity is that I don't have the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan, so I can't refine this style to perfection.

But even so, as long as I master this method of striking pressure points, my taijutsu will no longer be a weak point!

Since arriving in the world of Naruto, Uchiha Yue had always been a man of action; whenever he had a new idea, he would put in the effort to realize it.

At this moment, Uchiha Yue had finally found a way to solve his taijutsu weakness, and naturally, he was willing to put in the work to slowly explore this "Gentle Fist-like" pressure-point taijutsu. He spent the entire night researching how to implement this style. Unfortunately, creating a new taijutsu style was not an easy task; it required a combination of theoretical knowledge, practical application, and real combat experience to truly develop.

However, although the night didn't result in the creation of the style, he did gain some valuable insights and experience.

Uchiha Yue believed that as long as he kept working hard, he would definitely be able to complete his own unique taijutsu before graduating from the Ninja Academy!

But!

Just as Uchiha Yue resolved to accumulate strength and steadily improve his abilities before graduation...

Early the next morning, his mother, Minako, knocked on his door in a panic.

"Yue, there are Anbu here to see you!"
