His true goal was to fuse all seven chakra natures to achieve the power of a Bloodline Encompassing Net.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the Bloodline Limits he'd developed so far, including Dust Release, were stepping stones toward that ultimate goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he needed to speed up the proficiency grind for Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique. Only by maxing it out quickly could he focus entirely on fusing the seven chakra natures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that in mind, Seimei made a snap decision. He took the 12.5 million chakra points freed up from maxing out Dust Release: Boundary Detachment Technique and poured them all into Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This bumped his daily chakra investment from 2.5 million to 15 million points—a fivefold increase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to recent boosts in his Spirit and Constitution attributes, he could handle more shadow clones training at high intensity simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, practicing Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique consumed far less chakra than Dust Release: Boundary Detachment Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant he could summon even more shadow clones to train at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No more worrying about running out of chakra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If his plan worked, the speed at which he gained proficiency would be at least five times faster—possibly even six times faster than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that rate, the 39 days he originally needed could be slashed to about a week.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No doubt, this would be a massive leap forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snapping out of his thoughts, Seimei didn't dwell any longer. He adjusted his condition, popped a few enhanced soldier pills to replenish his energy, and dove into a new round of training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, he summoned 300 shadow clones to absorb natural energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he tapped into the chakra stored in the interdimensional space at his forehead to top off his reserves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once that was done, he used Multiple Shadow Clone Technique again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, instead of the usual five shadow clones, he created a whopping 30.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After nearly three months of pushing his limits, his chakra ceiling had surpassed 4 million points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divided among 30 clones, each still had over 120,000 chakra points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was more than enough to practice Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique for an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This setup would supercharge his proficiency gains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, get to it!\" Seimei waved them off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 30 shadow clones nodded without a word and dashed toward the coast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they were gone, Seimei tapped into his interdimensional chakra reserves again, refilling his own chakra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he used Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport to the volcano beneath Moon Island and kicked off another round of training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time flew, and night fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei had finished his daily training and was about to rest when a memory sync hit him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat up, closed his eyes, and started sifting through the memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, he opened his eyes, a look of exasperation flickering in them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't expected things in Konoha to change so drastically, yet the same old events still played out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The memories came from none other than the shadow clone he'd left in the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And why did it send them? Because Cloud Village had once again tried to kidnap Hinata Hyuga—and acted on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They got their butts handed to them by Hiashi Hyuga, who took out several of their shinobi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, the Cloud Village delegation was raising a stink, accusing Konoha of deliberately sabotaging peace talks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unlike Sarutobi Hiruzen, who caved quickly in Seimei's memories, Minato Namikaze took a hardline stance. He said the incident needed investigation and made no promises to Cloud Village until it was sorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, the peace talks were at a standstill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minato was worried Cloud Village might do something reckless, like stirring trouble at the border.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He issued orders for all available Jonin without active missions to lead teams to the border immediately, ensuring they could contain the situation if Cloud Village started a war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's why the shadow clone sent the memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reviewing them, Seimei muttered, \"What a hassle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He used Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport to a forest outside Konoha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As usual, he activated his Byakugan to scan the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing nothing out of the ordinary, he triggered Heaven's Control to slip silently through Konoha's walls and sensory barrier, returning home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly gathered his gear and headed to the meeting point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he arrived, hardly anyone was there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About an hour later, the team was fully assembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei and a few other Jonin led the group out of the village, heading straight for the northern border.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't believe it. He'd only been back in Konoha for three days, and now he was being sent out again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is just…\" Seimei felt exasperated but had no choice but to follow orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he wasn't planning to defect from Konoha, he had to play by the rules—for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, once he got to the border, he wasn't going to sit idly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His time was too valuable to waste waiting for Cloud Village to make a move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At most, he'd leave a wood clone to hold the fort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for himself? He'd head back to Moon Island to continue training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his current strength, even a single wood clone was stronger than most Jonin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No need to worry about anything going wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, in Seimei's view, the odds of Cloud Village starting a war were slim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For one, the skirmishes over the past half-month had likely shown the Fourth Raikage, Ay, that Cloud Village wasn't strong enough to overpower Konoha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Starting a war recklessly wouldn't benefit either side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For another, this incident was clearly the work of Cloud Village's radical faction acting on their own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, Ay was even less likely to wage war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, if one rogue faction could force the entire village to pick a side, what would that say about his authority as Raikage?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Seimei figured this trip was mostly for show. War wasn't likely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minato probably thought the same, or he wouldn't have sent only the available Jonin to lead teams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he truly believed war was imminent, he'd have recalled all shinobi on external missions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, he didn't think a fight was likely either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sending them was likely a precaution to avoid being caught off guard and a signal to Cloud Village not to get any funny ideas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the situation could still evolve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one could predict the future with certainty.\u003C\u002Fp>",1228,"2026-06-06T03:31:07.979Z",1,"novelbin.me","cf5156a225620ccc748d478641415990da4c297d107fed42e0da678b7e7ce04a","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-1083","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-1081",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
