The next morning, the soft sunlight filtered through the window lattice, casting mottled light and shadow on the tatami.
Senju Chen was awakened by the clashing of pots and pans and the untuned humming of Kushina. He stretched out, and his joints made a series of crisp sounds, and he felt comfortable all over.
This was the most peaceful sleep he had had in the past two years, and he got up to do a simple wash.
Then I saw Kushina Uzumaki laying out breakfast one by one on the dining table like a treasure, with a bright smile on his face.
"Little Chen, come and try it! This is the reception breakfast I specially prepared for you!"
Looking at the grilled fish with a slightly burnt skin on the table and a plate of strange-looking fried eggs with a slightly mushy edge, the corners of Senju Chen's eyes twitched imperceptibly.
It has been two years, Sister Kushina, your cooking skills are still so... full of personal style.
For some reason, I suddenly missed Sister Shizune.
"Wow, it looks so rich." Senju Chen put a flawless bright smile on his face, picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, chewing it carefully.
Although it doesn't look very good, the taste is pretty good. Senju Chen sincerely praised, "It's delicious!"
"Hehe, right, right? I've practiced very hard in the past few years!" Kushina was affirmed and immediately became elated. He also picked up the chopsticks and asked enthusiastically:
"That's right, tell me quickly, what have you been doing outside in the past two years? The information that's been spread is so scary, it must be all exaggerated, right?"
Senju Chen ate slowly while picking out experiences that were less bloody and even interesting to tell her.
For example, how he used Wood Release to spawn strange mushrooms and made several Iwagakure scouts vomit and have diarrhea; another example is how he played with those arrogant Kirigakure Ninja in the Land of Rain swamp.
He turned those dangerous games of near-death into interesting pranks in an understatement.
Kushina was startled when he heard it. Sometimes he clenched his fists nervously, and sometimes he was amused and laughed. His purple eyes were shining with pure curiosity and yearning.
When Senju Chen mentioned that Minato Namikaze later rushed to Land of Rain to support him and was safe and sound, the smile on Kushina's face became brighter obviously, an imperceptible blush appeared on his cheeks, and even his movements of picking up food became much brisker.
Looking at her appearance, Senju Chen secretly smiled in his heart. It seems that distance really brings beauty. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and Bro Minato's strategy progress bar is almost full.
After the meal, Senju Chen said goodbye to Kushina who was still humming a song and clearing the dishes, and went alone to the exclusive training ground behind the mansion.
The place is empty and flat, and the ground and surrounding walls are covered with complex reinforcement seals.
He took a deep breath, spread his legs slightly, and the Chakra in his body began to operate in a unique and violent way.
"Zila--"
Wisps of slender blue electric arcs, like living spiritual snakes, emerged from his pores and spread all over his body in an instant. The dazzling lightning jumped and flashed wildly on his body, making bursts of teeth-piercing sounds.
Lightning Body Tempering!
This was the reward he drew from the system after he rescued Third Raikage.
Along with the skill card, there is also all the experience and insights of Third Raikage's lifelong practice of this technique. This huge flow of information has been completely absorbed by him after so many days.
At this moment, he didn't need to fumble or try and make mistakes. Every muscle and every inch of his body instinctively knew how to withstand, guide, and absorb this violent thunder and lightning power.
A numbing tingling sensation spreads from the surface of the skin, and quickly penetrates into the muscles, bones and even the depths of the internal organs. Every cell seems to be whining under the tempering of this thunder light, and then cheers and transforms as it breaks and then stands.
There was no trace of pain on Senju Chen's face, but instead an expression of almost enjoyment.
All I can say is that the products produced by the system must be of high quality.
This is the convenience that the system brings to him. It directly skips the most difficult entry stage, allowing him to achieve the best results as quickly as possible. He can clearly feel that his physical strength is steadily increasing at an incredible speed.
After finishing today's physical training, Senju Chen wiped the thin sweat from his forehead, walked through the courtyard, and Senju Chen came to his "secret" library.
Inside, rows of bookshelves towering above the ground were filled with various scrolls and books, and the air was filled with the unique fragrance of paper and ink.
His eyes did not stay on those ordinary scrolls, but went straight to the deepest part of the library.
For Senju Chen, who has been here several times, it is already clear where what he wants is.
Senju Chen's eyes fell precisely on the row of black scrolls on the top floor.
He stepped forward and pulled out the target this time, a taboo about the soul Ninjutsu invented by his former brother-in-law.
[Spirit Transformation Technique]
This was created by Dan Kato, a super S-level forbidden technique that allows the soul to leave the body and turn into a living being. It can travel regardless of distance, kill or control enemies, or sneak into the opponent's spiritual world to attack regardless of physical distance, and can even possess and control others.
Senju Chen's mouth slowly curved into a meaningful arc.
Senju First Bloodline ensures his unparalleled vitality and group destructive power.
Uzumaki Clan Bloodline ensures that his Chakra increment far exceeds that of ordinary people.
Uchiha Clan Bloodline raises his future upper limit and base.
Flying Thunder God, ensuring its own survival rate.
Lightning Body Tempering, can continuously strengthen his physical defense and speed.
When your Lightning Body Tempering reaches a certain stage, you can directly learn Eight Gates Released Formation. In addition to Eighth Gate, you may not have any side effects if you directly start Seventh Gate.
So next, it's time to complete the last piece of the puzzle, the soul, which is also the most mysterious piece.
In the Hokage world system, any Ninjutsu related to the soul is extremely powerful, and ordinary people cannot even reach the threshold of contact.
And Senju Chen knows very well that in this seemingly passionate world, but actually full of murderous intent, physical strength is not everything. Uchiha's Genjutsu, Yamanaka Clan's secret techniques, and even the more bizarre abilities in the future, all point directly to the spirit and soul.
If you want to be truly invincible and hold your destiny firmly in your own hands, you must have no shortcomings.
At the same time, Senju Chen also pulled out the forbidden technique [Soul Sealing] invented by his second uncle next to him that was also related to the soul.
Of course, choosing this forbidden technique is not just to enhance your own soul power.
He remembered that in the original work, at the end of Fourth Shinobi World War, Uchiha Sasuke was stabbed through the heart by Lord Madara and was on the verge of death. It was his second uncle who used the forbidden technique [Soul Sealing] to indirectly imprison Sasuke's soul, buying precious time for Kabuto Yakushi's treatment.
This is what Senju Chen is most interested in in this technique. And it is all about the soul. Learning one is learning, referencing each other, and confirming each other. Only in this way can we learn better and not make ourselves take more detours.
After getting [Spirit Transformation Technique] and [Soul Sealing], Senju Chen exited the library, then eagerly returned to his room and began to study.
