[Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu level increased to LvMAX]
Lin Fan kept pouring points into Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu until it reached max level. Only then did its status finally turn blood red, indicating that no more points could be added.
[ Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have upgraded Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu to LvMAX and received the bonus effect: Fire Release Ninjutsu affinity increased by 10%.] [Fire Release Ninjutsu affinity allows the Host to use less chakra to unleash more powerful Fire Release techniques. The higher the affinity, the greater the increase in power.]
Could this affinity boost really apply to every Fire Release technique?
Lin Fan was overjoyed.
Did that mean that if his Fire Release affinity reached 100%, even a Lv1 Fire Release technique could unleash power equivalent to a max-level one?
And if he used skill points to max out a Fire Release technique and then gained a 100% Fire Release affinity boost, would the technique's power double?
He suddenly remembered the Fourth Shinobi World War in the original story, when Madara used a B-rank technique, Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame, with the power of an S-rank jutsu.
It had taken an entire squad of Water Style ninja working together to unleash Water Style: Water Formation Wall just to barely hold it back.
Perhaps, in the future, Lin Fan could recreate that legendary scene of Madara's Fire Style matching the Water Style of an entire squad.
More importantly, maxing out Fireball Jutsu had cost Lin Fan nearly a thousand skill points.
Yet the remaining skill points on the system panel still showed MAX, without changing at all.
Cheating felt great for a while—but cheating forever felt even better.
Then Lin Fan turned his attention to the other two techniques he had obtained from the big gift pack.
Confidently, he said, "Upgrade!"
[Congratulations, Host. Earth Style: Earth Wall has been upgraded to LvMAX. Bonus effect received: Earth Style Ninjutsu affinity increased by 10%.] [Congratulations, Host. Transformation Technique: Sexy Jutsu has been upgraded to LvMAX. Bonus effect received: Transformation Technique affinity increased by 50%.] [Earth Style Ninjutsu affinity allows the Host to use less chakra to unleash more powerful Earth Style techniques.] [Transformation Technique affinity allows the Host's transformed appearance to more closely match the target in both form and spirit, while extending its duration!] [Displaying the Host's system panel] [Host: Lin Fan] [Age: 12] [Known chakra natures: Fire, Earth] [Taijutsu mastered: None] [Ninjutsu mastered: Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu LvMAX, Earth Style: Earth Wall LvMAX, Sexy Jutsu LvMAX] [Genjutsu mastered: None] [Kekkei Genkai: None] [Special constitution: None] [Chakra reserves: 550–600 (approximately 0.5 Kakashis)] [Skill points: MAX]
The only problem was that his chakra was a little low. At just 0.5 Kakashis, he had enough for a tiny puff of flame and a little dirt mound without a dog's head, right?
Lin Fan glanced at the system panel and shook his head with a wry smile.
Just as he was about to head outside and test his techniques' power, he heard the door open.
"Lin Fan, you're finally awake! Haha, you look so ridiculous in my boxers!"
A blond boy with a sunny smile appeared in front of Lin Fan. He had three whisker-like marks on each cheek and white ramen broth still around the corner of his mouth.
Who else could it be but the young prince, Naruto Uzumaki?
Following Naruto's laughter, Lin Fan realized that he was indeed wearing nothing but a pair of ill-fitting red boxers.
The tight underwear was stretched snugly over his lower half.
"Are you really Naruto? Were we close before? Why did I pass out? And where are my clothes? Why am I wearing these ill-fitting boxers?"
Lin Fan asked, confused.
Naruto set down the takeout miso chashu ramen, rose onto his tiptoes, and placed a hand on Lin Fan's forehead.
"You don't have a fever, so why have you forgotten everything? We're close enough to share a pair of boxers, so how can you say we're not close? I took your clothes and pants to wash. Do you really not remember what happened earlier?"
Naruto continued with a mischievous grin. "Today you said you were about to create the greatest Transformation Technique in the history of the Shinobi World. You kept insisting on going out first thing in the morning to find inspiration."
"Then you went up onto the roof of a bathhouse. You accidentally stepped off the edge and fell into the women's bath. As it happened, Sakura-chan was bathing there too."
"You know what Sakura-chan's temper is like. You got soaked, took a beating, and passed out. Luckily, I was there, so I managed to get you out."
"So that's what happened. But you said you were there too? If I went to the bathhouse to find inspiration, what were you doing in the women's bath?"
Lin Fan gave a bitter laugh and pointed out the key detail in Naruto's reply.
At the same time, he grumbled inwardly, Sakura's flat chest was worth sneaking a peek at?
"Ahem, that's not important. What matters is whether you actually created the greatest Transformation Technique in the history of the Shinobi World. I want to learn it too."
Naruto's face instantly turned red, and he quickly changed the subject.
[Ding! Tutorial mission issued: Teach Naruto the Sexy Jutsu. Reward: Uzumaki Constitution Lv1.]
"What?!"
So I was the one who taught Naruto the Sexy Jutsu?
Lin Fan was stunned.
What surprised him even more was the reward for completing the mission.
The Uzumaki Clan's special constitution was incredibly rare throughout the entire Shinobi World.
It meant a longer lifespan and an unlimited supply of chakra!
Could this be his chance to change his useless constitution, which gave him the equivalent of about 0.5 Kakashis' worth of chakra?
Lin Fan cleared his throat. "Of course. I'll teach you the greatest Transformation Technique in the history of the Shinobi World right now. I've named it the Sexy Jutsu."
"Sounds awesome! Lin Fan, hurry up and show me! I want to learn it!"
Excitement flashed in Naruto's clear, sky-blue eyes.
Lin Fan's mouth twitched slightly.
Heh.
With the gorgeous women from Japan he'd seen in his previous life, like Teacher Sora and Yui-chan, how could he fail to win over little Naruto?
Lin Fan closed his eyes and brought his hands together.
The little chakra inside him surged once more. He shouted, "Transform!"
Poof!
A cloud of white smoke drifted past.
Teacher Sora appeared, dressed in black fishnet lingerie.
Then, in a coquettish voice, she cried, "Naruto-sama!"
Naruto's eyes rolled back, and blood gushed from his nose. "Incredible! This really is the greatest Transformation Technique in the history of the Shinobi World! Lin Fan, hurry up and teach me! I want to learn it!"
Lin Fan quickly dispelled the Sexy Jutsu, then opened the Other-Dimensional Scroll.
He soon pulled out a magazine titled Detailed Guide to the Top 100 Teachers.
Patting Naruto on the shoulder, he said solemnly, "Young man, I can see that you have an extraordinary physique. I'll give you the latest reference material. Take it and practice by copying it. One day, you'll surpass me."
Naruto immediately took the magazine and started poring over it. Then he stared at the pages, the corners of his mouth lifting as he exclaimed, "Wow, this lady is gorgeous!"
"This lady is huge!"
"This lady is so pink!"
