The moon set, and the sun rose. Another night passed.
It was now the morning of the second day.
Inside the temporary camp, Seii opened his eyes and activated his proficiency panel.
The familiar light blue screen appeared.

Over the past ten days, apart from significant progress in "Genjutsu: Sharingan" and "Swordsmanship," the other skills hadn't changed much.
The forr was because he had used all his recovered chakra on it during the first few days of their journey, leading to greater improvent.
The latter was due to the continuous fierce battles, allowing him to hone his skills in actual combat, resulting in considerable progress.
As for the other skills...
Due to the circumstances, they hadn't changed much, mainly gaining proficiency through normal use in battles.
However, overall, the changes on the panel were quite substantial.
Firstly, his Healing Jutsu had reached mastery after these days of use and no longer needed further practice.
Secondly, he had acquired a new Wind Style jutsu, the Wind Style: Wind Blade, copied from Koharu Shuji using his Sharingan's copying ability.
Lastly, he had added two new dical ninjutsu - Mystical Palm Technique and Chakra Scalpel.
Although these were newly learned skills, due to the perfect timing, their proficiency increased rapidly.
Last night, he worked until late, almost exhausting his chakra, and finally managed to raise both of them to Lv2.
Although this gain wasn't huge, it was definitely not small.
Moreover...
It was foreseeable that he would maintain this rapid growth in the coming days.
After all, over three hundred wounded wouldn't be fully treated in a short ti.
There weren't many dical ninja who had set out with the team, and they had lost so in the past few days, leaving even fewer.
So, in the next few days, he would definitely have to fill the gap.
This naturally ant he could continue to accumulate proficiency quickly.
Seii closed the panel, ford hand seals, and used the Mystical Palm Technique to restrain the condensed Yang Release chakra within his body.
Then, he channeled it through his chakra pathways to perate his entire body, strengthening his cells.
A warm sensation washed over him, making him close his eyes in comfort.
Ti passed by...
Several minutes later, he opened his eyes again.
He glanced at the panel and shook his head in disappointnt.
As expected, his "Physique" attribute hadn't increased.
Even the effect of this strengthening was inferior to that of the Healing Jutsu.
"Is it because the level is too low?"
Seii pondered, closed the panel, and started packing his belongings.
The team would be setting off soon, and he could only verify these questions later.
However, Seii was almost certain of his guess.
After all, the Mystical Palm Technique and Healing Jutsu were essentially the sa, both utilizing Yang Release chakra to stimulate human cells and accelerate wound recovery.
So, once the proficiency increased, the strengthening effect would naturally surpass that of the Healing Jutsu. Now, it depended on whether it was at Lv3 or Lv4.
If it was Lv3, he could reach it soon and verify his theory.
But if it was Lv4, he would have to wait.
As Seii was thinking, a Konoha Chunin responsible for delivering ssages ca to him, informing him to attend a eting.
Seii responded and quickly headed over.
The eting's content was simple. It mainly outlined their next destination and the areas each Jonin would be responsible for.
Due to concerns about being surrounded by Iwa ninja again, after urgent communication with headquarters last night, they had been granted permission to retreat.
Next, they would abandon their plan to go to Tiger Mountain camp and instead retreat directly to a forr Iwa frontline base located ahead of it. They would defend their position there.
In other words, they had to give up a large area of land they had just captured not long ago.
However, this was ultimately the Land of Rain's territory, and abandoning so land wasn't a big deal. The most important thing was to preserve their forces.
That was the information regarding their destination.
There were also their tasks as Jonin.
The others' tasks remained largely unchanged, except for so positions that needed to be filled due to casualties.
Only Seii's task changed. Because he knew so dical ninjutsu, and there were too many wounded in the team, Nara Shikamaru directly transferred him from the combat team.
From now on, he would work with the dical ninja to treat the wounded during their breaks along the way.
This aligned perfectly with Seii's intentions, and he had no reason to refuse.
So, for the next three days, Seii stayed with the dical ninja, treating the injured Konoha ninja.
During this ti, the Iwa ninja, as expected, caught up, and both sides fought several more battles.
As a result, the number of wounded in the team increased instead of decreasing.
This exhausted both Seii and the other dical ninja.
However, the gains were also significant.
When they finally reached their destination three days later, his Mystical Palm Technique had reached Lv3 (102/1000).
Now, when he used this technique to condense Yang Release chakra to strengthen his body, the effect was no weaker than the Lv5 (0/0) Healing Jutsu.
Seii estimated that after one more level up, he should be able to see more obvious results.
This filled him with hope.
As for the Chakra Scalpel...
Although it hadn't reached Lv3 in the past three days, it was also on the verge of leveling up, currently at Lv2 (420/500).
The rapid progress of these two dical ninjutsu was thanks to the Iwa ninja's persistent pursuit.
It wasn't that they created more wounded; there were already enough injured in the team for him to practice on. Rather, their continuous pursuit gave Seii the opportunity to replenish his chakra.
Originally, after the Mystical Palm Technique and Chakra Scalpel reached Lv2, the bonus from Healing Jutsu beca less noticeable.
With the amount of chakra he could recover each day, it wasn't enough to gain so much proficiency.
But with the supplent of this external chakra, it was no longer a problem.
That's why Seii said it was thanks to them.
