Even though he wasted quite a bit due to his lack of proficiency in circulating chakra, and had practically soaked his entire body in it, he felt no signs of weakness at all, as if the chakra he had just refined was merely a drop in the ocean.
This was truly absurd; even with the bloodline of the Senju Clan, his chakra reserves shouldn't be this outrageous.
Would he be treated like a monster for this?
Having finished refining his chakra, he opened his eyes, and sure enough, he saw his mother looking at him as if he were a monster.
Uchiha Mika found it hard to comprehend. Clearly, she was the one with the pure blood of the Senju Clan, yet compared to her own child, she felt like the fake one.
Looking at the chakra on her child that was so dense it was visible to the naked eye, she felt as if she were dreaming. What kind of terrifying chakra volume was this? He was only a three-year-old child, yet his chakra reserves were already nearly on par with her own.
Seeing her child open his eyes and look at her, Uchiha Mika hurriedly suppressed her look of astonishment and said sternly, "Since you've finished, hurry up and stand up. Try out your body's current capabilities."
Uchiha Cheng followed her instructions. He stood up and swung his arms, feeling that there was nothing unusual about his body.
He then leaped with all his might, and this jump reached a full two or three meters high.
He cried out in alarm. He was less than a meter tall, yet he had jumped twice his height; he was terrified he would fall to his death.
Fortunately, he landed steadily in the end; his physical strength seemed to have improved along with it.
After landing, he let out a long sigh of relief.
Seeing this scene from the side, Uchiha Mika couldn't help but laugh.
"You've felt it now, haven't you? This is the power of cellular activation. Anyone who successfully refines chakra, even a child of only three or four years old, can leap two or three meters high and possess strength comparable to an adult."
Uchiha Cheng nodded; he could understand that much. In the manga, children still in the Ninja Academy could leap over walls, even Naruto Uzumaki could, and at that time, Naruto couldn't even use the Transformation Technique properly.
The deeper he delved into this world, the more he felt its mystery. He couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. The real world was, after all, not a manga, and ninjutsu could not possibly be limited to just what was described in the comics.
"Mother, I've heard that some Lightning Release ninjutsu can also activate cells. Is it the same thing as this?"
"That is a deeper level of activation, not something you can touch yet. Remember not to be overly ambitious."
Uchiha Mika tapped Uchiha Cheng on the forehead.
"For the next period of time, you must continue to practice cellular activation until your physical abilities can no longer be improved. However, having completed these two training sessions, you can also begin to truly come into contact with ninjutsu."
Hearing this, Uchiha Cheng was overjoyed; he had thought he would have to undergo other training before he could reach the stage of ninjutsu.
In the time that followed, Uchiha Mika began to explain the hand seals and chakra circulation paths for the Transformation Technique, Substitution Technique, and Clone Technique.
The Transformation Technique, Substitution Technique, and Clone Technique—these three basic techniques were the foundation of the Ninja Academy. They were simple to learn and perfect for laying a foundation.
However, reality once again made Uchiha Mika doubt her life. With just one ordinary attempt, Uchiha Cheng easily learned these three ninjutsu again. It was as if he could do it just by looking, never forgetting what he saw.
Watching Uchiha Cheng, who had created a clone and transformed his original body into her likeness, Uchiha Mika stared in a daze.
Although the execution of the ninjutsu was still very rough—the Transformation Technique had many flaws, and the Clone Technique was very weak, even somewhat transparent—the fact that he could use them completely meant he had already learned these ninjutsu. From here on, it would only take steady, persistent effort to polish them.
Could my child be a genius?
