Lin Fan looked at Naruto, whose face was flushed but who still couldn't put the magazine down, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

He knew very well that kids in the Naruto World tended to mature early.

Before he crossed over into the Naruto World, Lin Fan had been twelve. At that age, he'd probably still have been glued to the TV, waiting to watch Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf.

Smack!

After quickly flipping through the magazine, Naruto shut his eyes and pressed his hands together.

"Hehe, Big Brother Lin Fan, just you wait and see! Transformation!"

A puff of white smoke appeared.

Yui-chan appeared in a white, silk-stockinged nurse's outfit, holding a large syringe. She was beautiful, fair-skinned, and long-legged.

Her skin was rosy and fair, and the sight was truly spectacular.

Then Naruto said bashfully, "Yamete, Lin Fan-kun! Don't keep staring at me like that. You're making me embarrassed. Be careful, or I'll poke you with my needle!"

Lin Fan didn't get a nosebleed. He didn't even look particularly surprised.

After all, as a seasoned expert, he had already stayed up late studying and reviewing Yui-chan's materials before crossing over. He knew them inside and out.

He simply nodded at Naruto and gave him a thumbs-up to show that he was a quick learner.

At this stage, Naruto's Clone Technique was just as terrible as Lin Fan's, but he'd grasped the Sexy Technique's transformation in no time.

[ Ding, congratulations, host! You have completed the guidance task. Reward: Uzumaki Constitution Lv1.]

Lin Fan didn't hesitate. He immediately called out in his mind, "Upgrade!"

[Congratulations, host! You have upgraded the Uzumaki Constitution to LvMAX. Additional effect: Chakra control increased by 100%.]

[Chakra control increased by 100% means that the more times the host uses chakra, the better his control over it becomes. The increase is achieved after using chakra 100 times.]

Lin Fan then felt a steady stream of warmth spread from his lower abdomen, around his navel, throughout his body. He also felt as if he had endless strength. "Interesting. Is this the unique change to the body that comes with a max-level Uzumaki Constitution?" Lin Fan couldn't help murmuring to himself. "Hehe, Lin Fan, you're such a little genius! You've been busy gathering material for this Sexy Technique all day, so you must be hungry. I brought you Ichiraku Signature Chashu Ramen. Hurry up and eat it while it's hot!" When Lin Fan came back to his senses, he saw Naruto, who had dispelled the Sexy Technique, smiling at him with narrowed eyes. While eating, Lin Fan began asking Naruto about the backstory of the body he now inhabited in the Naruto World. As it turned out, just like Naruto, Lin Fan's parents in the Naruto World had both been ninjas. They had died twelve years ago during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, protecting Konoha. The two orphans had grown up as neighbors and friends. Ever since they could remember, they'd been as close as brothers. Lin Fan was quite pleased with this setup for his life in the Naruto World. After all, in the original story, Naruto was shunned and hated by the villagers of Konoha because they saw him as the Nine-Tailed Fox, a bringer of misfortune. He hadn't received the care he needed during his childhood, either. Lin Fan's companionship could bring a little comfort and warmth to Naruto's lonely childhood. After finishing the delicious Ichiraku Ramen, Lin Fan got up and said goodbye, ready to head home. Naruto didn't try to stop him. He was planning to practice a lot so he could master the Sexy Technique and astonish everyone. After returning home, Lin Fan immediately shut all the doors and windows. The place was about the same size as the apartment he'd rented before crossing over, but it was much cleaner and tidier than Naruto's home. Lin Fan quickly checked his status panel. With the Uzumaki Constitution, his total chakra had soared to somewhere between 99,000 and 100,000. That was about the same as one hundred Kakashis. So the ability to control such a massive amount of chakra was absolutely essential. Lin Fan took the magazine, Detailed Guide to the Top 100 Teachers, out of the Other-Dimensional Scroll. He could have some fun using the Sexy Technique while building up his chakra control. "Heh, transformation!" Bang, bang, bang!

[Successfully used the Transformation Technique and expended chakra. Chakra control increased by 1%.]

"Hehe, it really works." Lin Fan performed the technique a few more times. Sure enough, his chakra control kept increasing little by little. His chakra still felt plentiful, and he wasn't tired at all.

[Ding, chakra control increased by 33%.]

[Ding, chakra control increased by 66%.]

[Ding, chakra control increased by 100%.]

Lin Fan transformed into every teacher in the magazine. By the time his chakra control had reached its maximum increase of 100%, it was already late at night. Only then, utterly exhausted, did he fall into a deep sleep. Early the next morning. The sun rose in the east, and the first light of dawn appeared. After getting up and washing, Lin Fan prepared to go out and train. After all, he currently had only one C-rank Fire Style attack ninjutsu and one B-rank Earth Style defensive ninjutsu. He hadn't even mastered the Three Body Techniques, the basics of being a ninja. His strength was still nowhere near enough to face a true powerhouse. So Lin Fan wanted to increase his strength as quickly as possible before the main story began. Below Kage Rock in Konoha was a broad, open forest, an ideal place for ninjas to train. After improving his chakra control last night, Lin Fan could now easily gather chakra in his feet. Whoosh! He leapt onto a tree with ease, then headed straight for the edge of the forest. "Heh, fifty more laps! Burn, my youth!" As soon as Lin Fan reached the edge of the forest, he heard a loud shout from nearby. The person had thick eyebrows, large eyes, and a watermelon-shaped haircut. He wore a green, one-piece training suit. He was moving rapidly around the forest, doing handstands and walking on his hands as he trained. It was none other than Rock Lee, one of Konoha's 12. He was a passionate and inspiring young man in the Naruto World. Though he couldn't use any ninjutsu or genjutsu, he had pushed Taijutsu to its limits and ultimately earned a place among Konoha's 12. He had made a dazzling appearance during the Chunin Ninja Exams in the original story, then used his formidable Taijutsu to effortlessly crush Uchiha Sasuke early on. As a Naruto fan, Lin Fan thought that if Guy-sensei's kick against Madara in the Fourth Shinobi World War—the one that nearly ended the story right there—had been delivered by Rock Lee, it would have made his youthful spirit all the more perfect. But later on, after Rock Lee opened the sixth of the Eight Inner Gates, he was abruptly sidelined. That had left Lin Fan lamenting the character just as much. It seemed to prove an eternal truth of the Naruto World: hard work couldn't beat talent, talent couldn't beat bloodline powers, and bloodline powers couldn't beat Talk-no-Jutsu. As for someone like him, with cheats enabled, could he coast to victory in the Shinobi World? Still, Lin Fan was more than happy to make friends with this earnest, hardworking young man. Just as he was about to climb down and greet Rock Lee, the system issued a new guidance task.

[Ding, guidance task issued: Train alongside Rock Lee. Reward: Konoha Style Taijutsu Lv1.]
