Through experimentation, Kamiya Keiyun discovered that after Chakra was infused into the meridians, it could enhance more than just strength. It could also improve defense, reaction speed, and much more.
Taken together, these could be summarized as Cell Strength!
Ninjas did not wear safety boots. On the contrary, they generally wore sandals with their toes exposed.
What if they stubbed their toes on a rock while running?
Yet after infusing Chakra, whether it was his muscles or fat that had been strengthened, the end result was that when Kamiya Keiyun lightly struck his leg with a wooden stick, he could no longer feel pain.
Of course, he could still feel it if he hit hard enough.
After further tests, Kamiya Keiyun discovered that this enhancement was also related to the amount of Chakra infused.
The more Chakra he put in, the greater the increase in strength.
However, a single meridian could only hold so much Chakra. Thus, Kamiya Keiyun once again discovered the value of the Bright Virtue Method.
By using the Bright Virtue Method to improve his Chakra Control, Chakra could pass through tiny meridians that it normally could not enter.
These tiny meridians were like the small vessels at the ends of blood vessels—capillaries. They could only accommodate the tiniest traces of Chakra. If one's Chakra Control was insufficient, these meridians could not be utilized.
"Everyone's bodies are the same. We all have the same number of meridians, and Chakra enhances our bodies in the same way. So how can someone become stronger than others under the same conditions?" Kamiya Keiyun pondered for a moment. Having come from an age of relentless competition, he did not even need to think to know the answer.
First: Chakra Control.
With Kamiya Keiyun's current perception, he had no idea how many capillary meridians existed in his body. He could only deepen his Chakra Control further. Clearly, everyone was the same: whoever had stronger Chakra Control could use more capillary meridians, and thus gain a greater enhancement to their body.
If Chakra Control reached a sufficiently high level, perhaps even an untrained, soft, fair little hand could unleash the force of a cannonball.
Second: physical strength.
Since it was an enhancement of the body, the stronger one's original body was, the stronger it would naturally become after enhancement. If Tang Keke and Saitama received the same Chakra enhancement, would the results be the same?
Third: meridian strength.
Since more Chakra meant greater enhancement, what if some people had broad meridians while others had narrow ones? Those with broad meridians would naturally be stronger than those with narrow ones. Even if the person with narrow meridians had Chakra Control at the master or Super Gene level, what use was that if they could not store as much Chakra as someone else could in a single meridian?
Fourth: Chakra quality.
If everyone's first three conditions were equal, then the only thing left to compare was Chakra quality.
Wuxia novels spoke of impure internal energy. The internal energy cultivated through divine arts was better than that cultivated through trash techniques. A genius who practiced a divine art could defeat a renowned martial artist who had trained for decades the moment he entered the world.
While cultivating the Bright Virtue Method, Kamiya Keiyun also discovered that Chakra could be compressed. What had originally been an egg-sized mass of Chakra had been squeezed inward by him, shrinking considerably.
With the quality unchanged and the volume reduced, its density naturally increased. Chakra cultivated this way would naturally be of higher quality.
If possible, Kamiya Keiyun even wanted to try Chakra Liquefaction and Chakra Core Formation.
Back in the classroom, the teacher was lecturing while he continued experimenting below.
Could Chakra only strengthen the legs?
Not at all. It could strengthen the entire body.
When it flowed into the body, it increased physical strength and defense.
When it flowed into his hands, they became harder and stronger.
When he placed it around his heart, his heart beat more powerfully and his blood circulated faster.
When he placed it in his lungs, his breathing became stronger and his ventilation efficiency increased.
When he placed it in his stomach—oh, the meridians here were fucking tiny. It could not get in.
But Kamiya Keiyun felt that if he could use it there, it should improve the efficiency with which he digested food.
If he further strengthened the small and large intestines—
Perhaps he could eat an entire pig and digest it within minutes!
There were even more organs inside the human body: the liver, spleen, kidneys, lymphatic system, blood vessels, nerves, skeleton, eyes, ears, mouth, nose, tongue, and most importantly, the brain.
If Chakra were used to strengthen the brain, would that not mean his brain would be permanently overclocked?
"This Chakra is practically omnipotent. It is terrifyingly powerful! I remember that in my previous life, the concept of Chakra came from Indian yoga. By cultivating it, one opened the three channels and seven chakras, eventually reaching the realm of Oneness of Brahman and Self, of Transcendence of Subject and Object. Although the Chakra here is somewhat inferior, it has the same potential. So..."
Kamiya Keiyun's first thought was whether immortals like that truly existed in this world.
Then came immense confusion.
If Chakra could strengthen the human body to such a degree, then what was with Gundams fighting aliens?
Could such powerful Chakra still fail to defeat aliens?
"Wait, I am an idiot. Avengers and Hollywood blockbusters fooled me." Kamiya Keiyun shook his head. In Hollywood films, aliens traveled across the vastness of space only to engage humans in hand-to-hand combat.
Under those circumstances, Chakra was naturally sufficient.
But in reality, aliens were more like those depicted in The Three-Body Problem. They came from far away, then from an equally great distance simply blasted your planet out of existence. What the hell could you do?
So he still had to pilot a Gundam and wage interstellar war against them.
"To fight aliens, an ordinary Gundam definitely would not do. It would have to be the kind that could reach dozens or even hundreds of times the speed of sound, with acceleration exceeding dozens of Gs. To face Alien artillery and lasers, its pilot would also need incredible reaction speed and agility. If an ordinary person piloted such a Gundam, they would die at the acceleration stage alone. So it could only be piloted by someone who cultivated Chakra and had a strengthened body!"
In his spare time, he had chatted with group members, roommates, and others about the interstellar age. A common view was that if humanity wanted to enter the interstellar age, it first had to evolve.
Otherwise, leaving aside whether humans could even pilot spaceships, the vast amount of knowledge in the interstellar age alone would take ordinary people more than a lifetime to learn. How could they build upon the past and usher in the future?
They would definitely need an overclocked brain!
That fit Chakra perfectly!
"So, if I want to become a Gundam pilot, I must first cultivate Chakra properly. There can only be a few Gundams capable of fighting aliens even if an entire planet pools its resources. When the time comes, they will certainly choose the best among them as pilots."
"I did not transmigrate here just to wave flags for others and serve as a background prop. I want to become one of them too!"
Kamiya Keiyun clenched his fists. Just as he was about to continue working hard, he heard the bell ring.
Another day of school had come to an end!
I truly think Chakra can enhance everything, including vision, hearing, and smell.
The Inuzuka Clan can enhance their sense of smell, allowing their noses to smell tens of thousands of times better than humans.
Jonin move so quickly that Genin cannot see Rock Lee's movements, yet Jonin can. That should be because Jonin use Chakra to enhance their eyesight, giving them dynamic vision.
The most typical example is Kakashi. He needs the Sharingan to aim when using Raikiri, but no matter how fast Raikiri is, it cannot be faster than the Flying Thunder God. Yet Namikaze Minato does not need the Sharingan to calibrate his position.
This showed that Namikaze Minato likely possessed innate dynamic vision and reaction speed, perhaps so strong that they even surpassed the Sharingan.
However, such enhancement was either innate or required secret techniques. Not everyone could learn it. For example, only the Inuzuka Clan had mastered enhancing the sense of smell.
Enhancing one's fingers to achieve an effect similar to the Finger Pistol was another Kumogakure secret technique.
