After carefully checking him, he let him in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coming to this massive library, Seimei finally understood what it meant to have a profound foundation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for some secret inheritances, almost all the books and scrolls collected by the Uchiha clan over the past millennium were stored here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Seimei had been a little worried about not being able to find the ninjutsu he wanted before, now he wasn't worried at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this collection, wouldn't it be easy to find a few ninjutsu that could absorb chakra or had a large attack range?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, facts proved that this was really not a simple matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there were many books here, they were not arranged in any particular order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, it was not easy to find ninjutsu with specific functions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Seimei had a clear goal, and with the Sharingan's assistance, he finally found what he wanted before the reading time ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First was a chakra absorption ninjutsu - Chakra Absorption Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right, it was the strange ninjutsu that the Sound ninja spy, Akado Yoroi, used against Sasuke during the Chunin Exams more than ten years later in Naruto's generation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei originally thought it was a unique ninjutsu created by Orochimaru.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, he actually saw it here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, this so-called 'Chakra Absorption Technique' couldn't have been created by Orochimaru.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This point could also be seen from the ninjutsu itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First of all, the flaws of this ninjutsu were too great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, the biggest problem was that the speed of absorbing chakra was too slow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take the battle between Akado Yoroi and Sasuke as an example.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, Sasuke had already been tortured half to death by the Cursed Seal and had also experienced a rather fierce battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even in this situation, Akado Yoroi still couldn't drain the opponent's chakra in a short time, and was even killed in the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was simply too weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the prerequisite of needing physical contact to activate it, this technique completely became useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for bullying weaker opponents, it had no practical value at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I could touch you and control you for a while, why would I need to absorb chakra? Wouldn't it be better to just kill you with one strike?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Orochimaru's pursuit of perfection, how could he create a ninjutsu with such a big flaw?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he did create it, he would probably try his best to improve it instead of just leaving it like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei guessed that he probably only obtained this technique by chance, studied it a bit, and then casually threw it to Akado Yoroi, who then treated it as a treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it had to be said that this technique could indeed be considered a treasure in his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No other reason than that this technique had a complete framework and a very high concept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this meant that he could continuously raise the upper limit of this technique by increasing its proficiency, thus achieving effects that even the creator couldn't imagine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the 'Mind Reflection Technique'...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The original intention of creating this technique was just to help the Uchiha clan's ninjas awaken the Sharingan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as he continuously upgraded it, now it could play a considerable role in the evolution of the Sharingan, which was probably something that those creators hadn't thought of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, it didn't matter that the 'Chakra Absorption Technique' had flaws. As long as he continuously improved its level, those flaws would eventually disappear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, maybe he could use this technique to forcibly plunder the tailed beasts' chakra, thus realizing the creator's dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right, the original intention of creating this technique was to convert the tailed beasts' chakra for one's own use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why Seimei said that the concept of this technique was very high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, the effect of the ninjutsu was far from the expectation, and it eventually became useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pulling his thoughts back, Seimei looked at the second book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was recorded on it was not some ninjutsu, but some insights on developing a second chakra nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, Seimei planned to start developing a second chakra nature after he had cultivated the 'Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique' to perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he had already set his goal, which was Wind Release.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this, he also reserved his third choice for a Wind Release ninjutsu called 'Wind Release: Great Breakthrough'.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this was only a C-rank ninjutsu, its power was strongly correlated with the amount of chakra input.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the caster's ability was strong enough, its coverage could completely reach several hundred or even a thousand square meters, and its power was not to be underestimated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way, it could make up for his shortcomings in large-scale attack methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right, Seimei didn't find the 'Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation' and 'Fire Release: Great Fire Destruction' that he had expected in the library.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't know if they were hidden in some corner or taken away by Madara Uchiha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In any case, he didn't see them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this was also one of the reasons why he was preparing to develop Wind Release as his second nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Putting away the three books, Seimei didn't stay any longer. After some inspection, he left the library and then went straight back home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting in the training room, Seimei recalled the village's arrangements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the notice, he would have about a month to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A month later, he would return to the Rain Country battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obviously, the village deliberately left some time for them, these newly promoted Chunin, to improve their strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From this point of view, the situation on the front line shouldn't have reached the most critical moment yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, let alone leaving them time to improve their strength, it would be considered good if they weren't pushed to their limits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, no matter what, it was always a good thing to have a month of rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It just so happened that he also had several skills that were about to be upgraded. This month was enough for him to improve his strength further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this in mind, Seimei stopped thinking about it and turned to start his training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of this chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1272,"2026-06-06T03:30:41.618Z",1,"novelbin.me","a2fb09d9a143dc3715ee5cf1d9a2bff2165307a2d73426781f912d1be2359329","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-86","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-84",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
