Chapter 55: 55.Senju physique level up!!
That was it. Instead of long term headache or other side effects, his body just experienced nightmare from the overload of memories from the shadow clone.
...
As he organised his thoughts, he pulled up his system screen especially to check up on his kekkei genkai.
Steal had two slots filled out of the total three. One weaker than the other but filled and usable nonetheless.
[Steal - (2/3)]
.....
[Shadow clone jutsu level 14.].
.....
"Fourteen? I was correct in assuming that only multiple of five gives me something."
After confirming his slots in Steal, Reko curiously took a look into the level of his shadow clone jutsu to see if something changed.
Unfortunately no perks, his assumption last time was correct. A visible or noteworthy change only took place after five level every time.
Reko had only managed to reach 14 this time.
"I am really close though, the clone decided against trying making another clone. But they were really close to it."
Reko was really close to being able to make another clone. But the clone that wanted to try making one did not have enough chakra to ensure that he would be safely able to form the second clone. Their chakra was spread thin already as Reko had formed two clones with each of them having half of his total chakra.
And then those clones formed another clone so they could practice together. In total, Reko had gotten the memory of 4 clones.
The first two clones dissipated and caused the remaining two which were formed a few hours late to begin practicing taijutsu instead of chakra control and rasengan.
The first two had dissipated practicing rasengan to their end but last two decided to practice taijutsu to make full use of their time. While at it, they also tried to fasten their chakra regeneration rate.
"To sum it up, I can still not make Rasengan quick enough to engage in a one on one battle. At least not without my clone."
"Chakra control has increased nonetheless"
Reko summarized his training in the forest. The results appeared to be lackluster but his strength had increased yet again. Especially his chakra control and meditation techniques, they became significantly better.
The strength of his rasengan had increased once again. He was getting closer to being able to form a rasengan for quick battles, but the increase in strength was far greater.
Getting through a thick tree of almost four feet diameter was easy for Reko.
Truly worthy of being modeled after tailed beast bomb!!
The increase in intensity of the Rasengan was not obvious to naked eyes. But the constant use of it had allowed Reko to spot the changes, especially when practicing against a tree trunk.
"Sparring after realizing that chakra is going to not be enough was a good idea. I got to fight and strategize against myself."
Though, the training did not end with chakra control training only. The last two remaining clones decided to practice taijutsu with majority of it being dodging the opponent's attack.
This allowed Reko to get the ideas he wanted to execute while in battle, and also helped him understand his fighting style from opponent's pov.
He waited for the day when he would be able to summon clones in double digits to practice fighting against all of them because his physique was really peak, he did not desire to waste such potential.
....
[Mission completed]
Chain mission:
[Learn and excel]
Learn under Tsunade and be the top student.
Reward - Senju physique level up.
...
As Reko continued to look into it, he read the new mission to complete while finding that the previous one had been considered completed.
The reward of the previous mission was Tsunade's tutelage, meaning that Reko would be able to learn under Tsunade, directly from a Sainin.
"I need to beat Sakura in studies? Wasn't she like the best of best in theories? But the rewards are..."
Reko was aware that Sakura would be getting started in her medical ninjutsu training in this time period and would later on become almost same level, even surpassing Tsunade.
Sakura was a bookworm with excellent chakra control and Reko had to beat her in studies. He was not really into learning theories of medical ninjutsu but there was no other method to get better at it.
Reko believed that using his kekkei genkai would also not help him with it. He would be able to learn the ninjutsu but not the execution behind it.
Upcoming days were going to be really straining for him, but he decided to bear through it because of his rewards.
The upgrade in Senju physique would allow him to get close to Kage level in stats. If learned well, the teachings of Tsunade would be able to ensure that he becomes a high level Kage in the coming five years.
...
[Senju physique level 1 (5.08%)]
Chakra control - 61%
Endurance - 56%
Regeneration - 40%
...
After the appearance of mission to level up, the Senju physique had began to appear to differently on the system screen.
"The percentage increased? This is better than levels."
Instead of levels, the physique showed three stats in percentage. Reko's theory after looking at it for a few minutes was that the percentages were the foundation of his physique. If he managed to increase them, the physique would itself level up.
Chakra control, endurance, and regeneration. All of them were the basis of a body. If trained well, many benefits would follow up.
"Training as a medic would already elevate my chakra control. And when under Tsunade, her personal training would no doubt increase my endurance.
Understanding healing and the theory behind it would allow me to regenerate both my chakra and body faster."
Reko mumbled to himself, contemplating and understanding.
Although, it was a question if he would be able to complete a level up while training under Tsunade before her teaching ends.
Going by the percentage, Reko assumed that he would need to increase all three of them together to increase the progress of the Senju physique from 5%.
