Two days later.
In the courtyard, Tenya continuously swung his sword.
Whether it was slashing, thrusting, lifting, or sweeping, various sword techniques flickered in the air, leaving trails of white light.
From a distance, it seemed as if countless figures were performing a sword dance.
The entire courtyard was filled with afterimages, making it difficult to discern which one was Tenya’s real body.
As Tenya sheathed his sword, the scattered afterimages slowly dissipated.
After several days of training, Tenya had mastered three B-rank sword techniques.
Two of these techniques had provided him with 3% role-playing progress each, while the third, slightly higher in rank, had given him 4%.
Now, Tenya’s role-playing progress had surpassed the 60% threshold, and his combat power had broken through the limits of an elite Chunin, reaching the level of a Special Jonin.
Proficiently summoning the system panel:
- Host: Gekkou Tenya
- Character: Ukyo Tachibana
- Style: Shindō Munen-ryū
- Role-playing Progress: 60.3%
- Combat Power: Special Jonin
- Daily Task: Swing sword 1000 times, increase role-playing progress by 0.1% (completed)
- Long-term Task: Each new sword technique learned increases role-playing progress (Note: The higher the rank of the technique, the greater the increase)
At 55% role-playing progress, Tenya had acquired a new skill.
- Skill: Hell Walk
- Description: A high-level evasion technique
If [Phantom Step Slash] was a long-range burst skill, then [Hell Walk] was a short-range evasion skill.
This skill focused on dodging enemy attacks within a very narrow space.
It was a skill that tested one’s courage.
After all, dancing on the edge of a blade wasn’t easy, and one wrong move could be fatal.
However, Tenya wasn’t worried.
Upon unlocking the skill, he had fully mastered it.
With some practice, there shouldn’t be any major issues.
Additionally, when his role-playing progress reached 60%, breaking through the limits of an elite Chunin, Tenya unlocked another new skill.
A rather rare auxiliary skill.
- Skill: Mind Zen
- Description: Allows one to enter a meditative state at any time, becoming immune to all genjutsu
At first, Tenya hadn’t paid much attention.
But upon reading the skill description, his eyes lit up.
This auxiliary skill was the bane of all genjutsu.
Facing genjutsu-specialized ninjas, Tenya would undoubtedly be more confident.
He wondered if this skill could resist powerful genjutsu like the Uchiha clan’s [Tsukuyomi] and [Kotoamatsukami].
Tenya looked forward to testing this.
Additionally, he wondered if maintaining the [Mind Zen] state could block the Kurama clan’s genjutsu, especially those awakened with a Kekkei Genkai.
Thinking of this, Tenya couldn’t help but picture Kurama Nanase in his mind.
In Konoha, only a few in the Kurama clan had awakened the Kekkei Genkai, and Kurama Nanase was one of them.
In the future, if given the chance, Tenya would test the true strength of this auxiliary skill.
Collecting his thoughts, Tenya wiped the sweat from his forehead and coughed lightly.
To be honest, this body limited his growth and, to some extent, weakened his combat power.
If fully recovered, Tenya’s combat power would increase by at least 30%.
However, curing this Kekkei Genkai-related illness wasn’t easy.
This was true for both the Kurama and Gekkou clans.
Perhaps only someone with Six Paths-level Yang Release power, like the Sage of Six Paths, could completely remove this hidden danger.
For now, Tenya could only dream.
With training done for the moment, it was time for a break.
Speaking of which, he was getting hungry.
Time to reward himself with a good meal!
After a quick clean-up, Tenya headed into the kitchen.
…
On the street, two figures chased each other.
In the lead was Kakashi, and behind him, in a green tight suit, was Guy, relentlessly pursuing him.
“Kakashi, don’t run! Let’s have a youthful showdown!”
Guy shouted loudly as he ran, drawing curious glances from the street’s onlookers.
Kakashi’s eyes were full of helplessness. He wanted to say something, but seeing Guy’s fervent expression, he dismissed the idea.
In this state, Guy wouldn’t listen to reason unless they fought.
Clearly, Kakashi wasn’t in the mood for that.
He needed a way to shake off that lunatic!
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Kakashi sniffed the air, his nose twitching.
“This familiar aroma, could it be…”
Surveying his surroundings, Kakashi’s gaze stopped at a familiar house.
The delicious scent was coming from inside.
“What’s Tenya cooking today? Let’s find out!”
Kakashi’s eyes lit up, and he silently slipped inside.
Before he could settle, Tenya’s voice rang out.
“Kakashi, why don’t you use the door?”
Kakashi turned, awkwardly smiling at Tenya.
“Tenya, what are you cooking today?”
Kakashi skillfully fetched a pair of chopsticks and sat down at the table.
“You little…”
Seeing Kakashi act so familiarly, Tenya didn’t know what to say.
Was he used to mooching meals now?
So brazenly!
Tenya shook his head, not saying more.
As he brought the last dish to the table, there was a crisp knock on the door.
Tenya glanced at Kakashi, then looked outside.
Who could it be at this hour?
Opening the door, he found a young man in a green tight suit standing there.
“Tenya-senpai, sorry to bother you. Is Kakashi… here?” Guy politely greeted Tenya, then saw Kakashi and shouted, “Kakashi, you hid here!”
Kakashi glanced at Guy, ignoring him.
His focus was on the delicious food, with no time for that fool.
Seeing Kakashi ignore him, Guy got anxious.
He was about to speak when Tenya interrupted.
“Guy, come in!”
“Oh!”
“Have you eaten?” Tenya asked casually.
“Eaten…” Guy noticed the fragrant dishes on the table and quickly changed his tune, “Not yet!”
“Perfect, join us!”
“Alright!”
Guy sat down, his throat moving as he eyed the food.
After setting up a place for Guy, Tenya glanced at Kakashi, who was eagerly waiting, and said, “Dig in!”
At his words, both Kakashi and Guy started shoveling food into their mouths.
Tenya hadn’t even had a chance to start!
These two!
“Delicious…”
“So good…”
Watching them wolf down the food, Tenya regretted inviting them.
This meal was meant to reward himself.
Instead, most of it ended up in Kakashi and Guy’s stomachs.
