Chapter 151 Admonition to Add Points to Ice Release
Inside the cave, concealed by a barrier, Taichi, Yohei, and Saori sat in a circle around a campfire. They were all listening intently to Taichi's words; this concerned secrets of the Uchiha clan, things they were not normally allowed to know.
"I also found this information in the materials left by Tsunade-sensei." Taiichi first tried to find a reasonable source for what he was about to say.
After all, the person who knows you best is often your enemy.
The Senju and Uchiha clans were enemies from the Warring States period until the founding of Konoha, and even later, the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, remained wary of the Uchiha clan. No one would believe that the Senju clan hadn't studied the Uchiha's Sharingan.
"Each advancement of the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan is often accompanied by the death of someone close to them. This is because when an Uchiha witnesses all of this, the intense mental stimulation causes the brain to produce special chakra, which in turn stimulates the eyes to undergo a qualitative change."
"And that's why the Uchiha are known as the cursed clan." Taiichi first summarized the principles of Sharingan advancement, giving Yangping a general idea before continuing.
"Most Uchiha reach their peak when they advance to the three-tomoe stage, but there are some geniuses among them." Taiichi looked at Yangping. He really didn't expect Yangping to have such talent. If Madara Uchiha knew this, there would be no chance for Obito.
"Above the three tomoe is the Mangekyou Sharingan, which possesses ocular power far exceeding that of the three tomoe, and each pair of Mangekyou has its own unique ocular technique." Taiichi looked at Yangping, "It seems you've also sensed the ocular technique hidden in your eyes, haven't you?"
Yangping nodded and was about to speak when Taiyi interrupted him in time.
"Don't tell anyone. Don't tell anyone this secret. Some eye techniques are extremely powerful or have bizarre functions, so it's safest for only you to know!" Taiyi solemnly reminded him.
Seeing Yangping nod, Taiyi continued, "And each pair of kaleidoscopes has this common killing move, which is to summon the giant Susanoo, who is said to possess the power of a god!"
Legend has it that it possesses world-destroying power, and it was with its power that Madara Uchiha, the former head of the Uchiha clan, was able to overpower the other four great ninja villages.
Yangping's eyes lit up when he heard this. If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, Taiyi probably would have rushed out to test his Mangekyou Sharingan long ago.
So Taiichi immediately poured cold water on his enthusiasm: "However, the Mangekyou Sharingan has a significant drawback: overuse will gradually blur your vision, eventually leading to blindness!"
"What! How could this happen! What's the point of having eyes then?!" Yangping jumped three feet high, staring at Taiyi with wide eyes, as if waiting for Taiyi to say, "That was just a joke."
But in the end, he was defeated by Taiichi's incredibly serious gaze. He really wanted Taiichi to be lying. The feeling of powerlessness was too painful. During the day, he could only watch helplessly as Taiichi faced a powerful enemy alone, while he could only follow behind.
Yangping never wants to experience that feeling again.
The appearance of the Mangekyou Sharingan undoubtedly greatly enhanced his strength. Although it had only been less than a day, Yangping could feel that the amount of chakra in his body had almost doubled, his spirit was abundant, his body was gradually becoming stronger, and more importantly, there was the unique eye technique hidden in his eyes.
But the ultimate result of all this was blindness, which was devastating for Yangping.
However, Yangping was quick-witted and immediately noticed the loophole in Taiyi's words, "Wait, Taiyi, how come Uchiha Madara's eyes have always been intact?"
"This is yet another tragedy for the Sharingan. To escape the fate of blindness, the Mangekyou Sharingan must go a step further and achieve the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan." Taiichi looked at Yangping, his tone low and suppressed. "And the condition for this advancement is to take away the Mangekyou Sharingan of his twin brother and fuse with it."
"Ah!" Saori exclaimed, covering her mouth in surprise.
That's so cruel!
Yangping nodded in agreement, then asked hopefully, "Taiyi, isn't there any other way?"
"At least not for now. These are just things I've seen in the information. Whether there are other solutions requires further investigation." Taiyi still offered hope, "After all, this is the first time I've ever seen a real kaleidoscope!"
Hearing Taiyi's words, Yangping's worry turned to joy. "Haha, then there's no problem! I believe in you, Taiyi! If you have anything you want to research, just come to me, and I'll definitely cooperate with you!"
Yangping's carefree attitude has left Taiyi bewildered. He doesn't know if it's just his nature or if he truly trusts Taiyi. Perhaps it's both!
But Taiichi certainly won't disappoint him. After all, there are ways to prevent blindness with the Kaleidoscope in the original work, and Hashirama cells are one of them. It's just that Taiichi doesn't have that ability yet.
Moreover, it doesn't have to be that way. In Taiyi's view, as long as Yangping's physical fitness and mental strength are strong enough, the side effects of the Kaleidoscope are just child's play.
"I won't let you down," Taiichi promised.
Just as Yangping was still fantasizing about being able to use the kaleidoscope at will in the future, Taiyi's words interrupted his thoughts.
"Now that you know about the kaleidoscope, let's talk about why I don't want you to tell others about it."
"Why!" Yangping blurted out, dumbfounded.
"Because the Mangekyou Sharingan is too powerful, and given the precedent of Madara Uchiha, the village's higher-ups are afraid that the Uchiha will once again possess this power. You should also be able to sense that a large portion of the village's higher-ups have grievances against the Uchiha, right?"
Yangping nodded subconsciously. He was just a straightforward person, not stupid. He naturally knew about the problems in the village and his family.
"Then why can't we tell our family, not even our parents?"
"That's because the Uchiha have a history of rebellion." Taiichi's words startled Yangping. "Although not many people know about that now, the Konoha leadership and the Uchiha leadership will never forget it!"
"Even now, there are still some radicals in the Uchiha leadership who think about seizing power by force every day, which is why the village leadership dislikes the Uchiha so much."
"Tell me, what do you think the Uchiha would do if they found out they had another pair of Mangekyou Sharingan?" Taichi asked sinisterly.
Yang Ping thought about it briefly, then shuddered and decided it was best not to say anything.
He knows his parents too well. Telling them is the same as telling the clan leader. And if the clan leader knows, how could the other high-ranking members not know?
Having made his decision, Yangping stopped dwelling on the matter. He was more concerned about his Sharingan. "Taiichi, do you think I can still practice with the Mangekyou Sharingan? If I have it but don't practice, I won't be able to use it when the time comes!"
"A little practice shouldn't be a problem. You can come to me every now and then, and I'll use medical ninjutsu to soothe your eyes and give you regular checkups so I can keep track of how much training you do."
Taiyi gave Yangping advice, and at the same time instructed the two of them: "Also, remember to practice the basic physical techniques I taught you. A strong body is fundamental. When we return to the camp, I will teach you a set of basic meditation techniques that will help you train your mental strength."
Yangping and Saori were overjoyed upon hearing this. They had experienced the effects of the basic physical techniques. Yangping was able to activate the Kaleidoscope so easily, and aside from his own talent, the basic physical techniques certainly played a role to some extent.
Now that he can learn another basic meditation, Yangping has already begun to fantasize about the exhilarating scene of punching the Nanshan Nursing Home and kicking the Beihai Kindergarten in the future.
Waking the two from their reverie, Taiichi checked the time and instructed them, "It's getting late, go and rest. I'll be on duty for the first half of the night, and you two will take over for the second half."
The two then gathered their thoughts and found a comfortable place to lie down and rest. They were indeed exhausted today, especially Saori, who had suffered a rather serious injury.
Not long after the two lay down, soft snoring could be heard. Taiyi stirred the campfire to make it burn brighter.
Looking around and seeing that everything was alright, he walked out of the cave alone, thinking about what had happened that day.
Today's ambush was extremely dangerous. If it weren't for my attribute points and virtually unlimited chakra reserves, I would definitely be the one who died on that island today.
This battle can be said to have been achieved through unexpected water-style and wind-style attacks, relentless bombardment, and the fire-making technique under the influence of unlimited chakra, which enabled Taiichi to hold back so many enemies.
Otherwise, if those Cloud Ninja had only spared a portion of their forces to pursue Yangping and the others, under different circumstances, Taiyi himself might have remained unharmed, but it would have been uncertain whether Yangping and Saori would have survived.
Reflecting on the entire battle today, and considering the increasingly tense situation of the Third Shinobi World War, Taiyi was forced to make some introspective remarks.
Attribute points are a good thing; you can save them in critical moments. Besides, directly increasing attributes is too inefficient now. Increasing your constitution from 25 to 26 points requires 6 attribute points, which is not as cost-effective as using attribute points as "batteries".
As for skill points, use them when you need to; you don't need to save them all. Just keep a few for emergencies. This way, you can quickly improve your strength and prepare for the upcoming battle.
After all, as the battle approaches, the methods used by the villages are becoming increasingly unscrupulous. This time it's an ambush, next time it might be poisoning, or even kidnapping and threats!
After considering this, Taiyi looked at his panel. The only thing that made Taiyi happy about today's battle was that his job level increased by two levels, reaching Lv7, which provided him with 2 attribute points and skill points.
Now, Taiyi needs to consider how to allocate these skill points.
First, Taiyi tried adding 1 point to the highest-level fire attribute nature change.
As expected, I didn't reach Lv13 directly as I had imagined; instead, I gained 1000 experience points.
Some experience.
At the same time, a message entered Taiyi's brain, making him understand: Above the Shadow level, each skill point can only increase experience by 1000 points.
With this understanding, Taiyi also made a plan in mind. Considering maximizing the use of skill points, Taiyi added 1 point to advanced physical techniques. Seeing that it could be upgraded to Lv5 normally, he added another point to reach Lv6.
But when he added the third point, the panel only showed that he had gained 1000 experience points, so Taiyi knew that he was at Lv6.
That's at the level of a movie star.
At this moment, a torrent of memories began to surge in Taiyi's mind. Taiyi seemed to transform into countless forms, honing his physical skills in mountains, canyons, and by the sea in all sorts of places, year after year, until he mastered all these physical skills.
When Taiyi regained consciousness and assessed his physical condition, he realized that the level increase only improved his skills and proficiency; improving his physical fitness still required his own training.
Now, one unit of Taiyi's power can achieve the effect of two units before. Similarly, with training, the effect has almost doubled. This is the benefit of leveling up.
In this way, Taiyi raised both Advanced Meditation and Advanced Swordsmanship to Lv6.
After the memories merged, Taiichi felt that he could easily defeat his previous self.
After reviewing my stats again, I have 15 skill points left after allocating them.
Considering that the various property changes are still quite far from Lv11, Taiyi decided to save enough skill points to forge them to Lv10, and then use the skill points to break through to Lv11 in one fell swoop.
As for the remaining points that needed to be added, Taiyi thought it over and decided to use them on sealing techniques.
After all, Taiyi had suffered a loss from the sealing technique this time, and he didn't want to be trapped by it again next time.
With the addition of 4 skill points, the sealing technique reached Lv11. After the memory fusion was completed, Taiichi also understood that this Lv11 sealing technique only provided him with enough theoretical foundation. As for the specific sealing technique skills, he still had to go back to Konoha to learn them.
With all the basic ability points allocated, the remaining and most important point to allocate today is the Bloodline Limit.
Looking at the Ice attribute nature change that had just reached Lv0 (15/100), Taiichi also deeply felt the difficulty of fusing bloodline limit.
Although he was busy with various tasks during this period, he would take time to train and fuse whenever he had a spare moment, but even so, the progress could only be described as slow.
This is only the initial stage of fusion, which is relatively easy. In the later stages, the fusion will only become more and more difficult, and the process will be much slower.
The current situation does not allow Taiyi to wait any longer.
With the addition of 1 skill point, the ice attribute nature change immediately reached Lv1, and a wonderful change appeared in Taiyi's body.
The two attributes of Feng Shui spontaneously generated within Taiyi's body, and then the two came into contact with each other and merged in a clever way.
Taiyi seemed to be observing all of this from God's perspective, taking in all its mysteries.
As the first wisp of ice-attribute chakra was born, a subtle change occurred within Taiyi's body. This change penetrated deep into his bones and muscles, even reaching his cells and entering his genetic material.
This change was slow but steady, altering Taiyi's physique little by little.
As his physique changed, wisps of cold air emanated from Taiyi's body, and everything around him was affected by the cold air, slowly condensing into a layer of frost.
Fortunately, the cave was protected by a barrier; otherwise, Yangping and Saori would have noticed the drastic temperature change much earlier.
An hour later, the changes finally stopped, and the moment Taiyi opened his eyes, a flash of icy blue appeared in them.
Looking around, he was slightly surprised by the frost-covered earth, but then the changes within himself drew his attention.
My first impression was of the ever-increasing chakra within my body. Although the increase had slowed down, it was still visible to the naked eye.
Taiyi glanced at the panel.
Chakra: 40000 (50740)
Chakra increased by 15000 points, and the maximum daily chakra extraction doubled to 50740 points.
This is a truly transformative change; his current chakra level is four times that of a typical newly promoted Jonin.
Look down again.
【Ice Attribute Nature Change Lv5 (1/800)】
Presumably influenced by feng shui attributes, the ice attribute immediately reached L upon fusion.
v5. This saved Taiyi a lot of trouble.
With a flick of his right hand, an ice senbon quickly took shape in his hand. This was not a ninjutsu, but merely a rudimentary application of chakra control and shape manipulation.
He grabbed the senbon, flicked it casually, and with a "thud," the senbon was embedded in the tree trunk 10 meters away.
The ice remained intact and did not shatter due to the impact, demonstrating its solidity.
Taiyi's brows relaxed slightly. He wouldn't have to worry about weapons like senbon and kunai anymore; if they ran out, he could just make them himself.
As for Ice Release ninjutsu, Taiyi, who witnessed the fusion process of Ice Release, is now overflowing with inspiration. He just needs to put these inspirations into practice when he has some free time, and then he won't have to worry about basic Ice Release ninjutsu at all.
With a wave of his hand, Taiyi dispelled the chill around him and began to carefully sense the other changes within himself.
First, he used Fire Release. Fire-attribute chakra flowed through his body without any stagnation. Using Fire Release was just as easy as before, which put Taiyi at ease.
Next came the other attributes. After some testing, Taiyi discovered that his current physique only had a certain boost to the wind, water, and ice attributes, and had no effect on other attributes.
Whether it's due to the bloodline limit itself or the system panel's capabilities, this is undoubtedly good news for Taiichi.
After all the tests and skill point allocation were completed, Taiyi felt a surge of relief. If it weren't for the inconvenient timing, Taiyi would have loved to show off his newfound abilities and thoroughly test them out.
However, looking up at the moon overhead, it was almost time to wake up Yohei and Saori and change shifts.
After resting for most of the night, they probably had a lot to talk about when they woke up, especially Yangping, whose Mangekyou Sharingan was quite something for him to show off.
Hey! A 14-year-old with the Mangekyou Sharingan is only two years younger than Itachi Uchiha, and his side effects are so minor. It's something to be envious of and jealous of.
