Naturally, practicing a technique of this nature took a bit more effort—and chakra—than the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his tests, at this stage, raising the proficiency of the \"Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet Technique\" by one point burned through 120 chakra points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For techniques of other natures, with a solid training method, it'd only take about 100 points tops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, 120 points? He could live with that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on the 150,000 chakra points he was throwing at it daily, he calculated he could rack up about 1,250 proficiency points per day with this technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that rate, it'd take him roughly half a month to hit the upper limit for a B-rank ninjutsu—Level 7 (0\u002F0)!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that wasn't all—he had three other techniques in the works too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, he thought \"Lightning Release: Raikiri\" would be the first one he'd crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, his control over Lightning Release chakra wasn't half bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, with the foundation laid by \"Lightning Release: Thunder Sword,\" along with the training insights from Kakashi and Sasuke tucked away in his memory, he figured it'd come together pretty quick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But nope—he'd underestimated just how much chakra control this technique demanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, his \"Chakra Control\" skill was at Level 7, but when it came to Lightning Release chakra specifically, he was still a little shaky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, despite all those advantages, he couldn't quite nail it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the flip side, \"Earth Release: Added-Weight Rock Technique\" and \"Earth Release: Light-Weight Rock Technique\" ended up getting imprinted on his panel first, thanks to the research notes from Tobirama Senju.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just as he'd suspected, while both were classified as B-rank ninjutsu, their complexity was on a whole other level compared to your average B-rank stuff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were kind of like that secret Cloud Village taijutsu he'd picked up before—\"Lightning Release Chakra Mode.\" Training them sucked up chakra like crazy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, they hadn't even reached beginner status yet, so the chakra cost per proficiency point wasn't set in stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But based on his experience with other skills, Seimei could ballpark it: once they hit beginner level, each proficiency point would probably cost around 150 chakra points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's about on par with the cost of an average A-rank ninjutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So yeah, they were a pain to train.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Good thing he had his proficiency panel—pour in chakra, put in the work, and he'd see results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For anyone else, the time and energy required would be at least triple his—and even then, there's no guarantee they'd get anywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Man, this panel really is the MVP forever!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muttering to himself, Seimei quickly started thinking about how to divvy up his chakra next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Up until now, he'd dumped a full 150,000 chakra points into this \"quality over quantity\" approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With these two techniques now imprinted on his panel, the question was: should he split that chakra evenly between them and grind both at once?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he went that route, each technique would get 75,000 chakra points per day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At 150 chakra per proficiency point, that's 500 points per day per technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That pace would take over 37 days to max them out at Level 7 (0\u002F0).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No doubt about it—that was way too slow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if he focused all that chakra on just one technique, he could max it out in about 18 days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, that'd give him a deeper understanding of Earth Release chakra nature transformation along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that as a reference, grinding the second technique would definitely go faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not by a ton, though.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a quick mental estimate, he figured going this route would only save him maybe two or three days tops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's so little that if he trained both techniques together and cross-referenced them, a single spark of inspiration could easily close the gap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, it might even be quicker to train them side by side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ugh, why hasn't Old Purple checked in yet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought slipped out as Seimei grumbled under his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could get his hands on the Four-Tails right now, with its chakra supply, he wouldn't have to stress over this stuff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forget just these few techniques—he could even kickstart the development of the cursed seal jutsu he'd shelved earlier due to chakra shortages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking it over, Seimei checked the status of his Flying Thunder God seals scattered across the Land of Earth. None of them had been tampered with or triggered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant Old Purple still hadn't shown up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It'd been almost 20 days since he'd set up his big web, and a tiny knot of anxiety was starting to form in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The longer this dragged on, the higher the chance his setup would get exposed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if the Hidden Rock Village found out that every major city in the Land of Earth had someone secretly sniffing around for Old Purple, they'd be on high alert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forget catching the Four-Tails—if they traced it back to him, he'd be lucky to get out unscathed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei wasn't naive enough to think his plan was flawless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, memories wiped by the Mangekyo Sharingan were tough to recover—but \"tough\" didn't mean \"impossible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ninja world was full of wild secret techniques. The Yamanaka clan could even dig into a dead person's memories. Who's to say the Rock Village didn't have some trick up their sleeve to restore those memories?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if they did, intel about him would spill out like water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah, he'd used the Transformation Technique during the operation, but if the Rock Village analyzed his methods and the skills he'd pulled off, cross-referencing it with people in the ninja world capable of such feats, pinning him down wouldn't be hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they couldn't recover the memories, if they got suspicious and investigated, they'd probably notice something off about those people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They might not spot the Flying Thunder God seals, but the \"Heart Lock Seal\"—something straight from their own village? They'd catch that for sure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei never underestimated the resources or resolve of a major ninja village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When that happened, even without hard proof, he'd definitely end up on their hit list.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his current strength, he wasn't too worried about being targeted—but the real problem was if the Rock Village played dirty and leaked what he'd done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Controlling that many civilians at once? He couldn't even imagine the fallout if that got out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that point, even the Leaf Village might not have a place for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nobody wants to think about themselves or their loved ones unknowingly turning into someone else's puppet, their lives dangling in another's hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flurry of thoughts raced through his mind. Seimei shook his head hard, tossing the clutter aside. He'd already made his move—no point in regretting it now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a race: either his setup got busted first, or he'd nab the Four-Tails and clean up the mess before anyone noticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, though…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his attention back to figuring out what to do with those 150,000 chakra points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he didn't overthink it—he made up his mind fast: train both techniques together!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the tiny time savings of grinding them one by one, he cared more about how they could play off each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One increases an object's density, the other lowers it—what a perfect pair!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Training them side by side would seriously boost his grasp of Earth chakra nature transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And like he'd just thought, if he trained them together and hit a burst of inspiration, a big proficiency spike could easily make up for that small time difference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, no need to split them up!\u003C\u002Fp>",1355,"2026-06-06T03:31:01.824Z",1,"novelbin.me","66a746517454681bdb415882db740440bca2d9dfe9be0790c703cfa7c1b4d236","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-812","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-810",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
