Four days passed in a flash.
It was now late July.
This afternoon.
Still in that forest clearing.
Seii sat cross-legged on a boulder, continuously performing the "Palm Healing Jutsu" to strengthen his body.
Unfortunately, the effects were minimal.
According to his estimation, after his "Constitution" attribute reached 18 points, it would take at least a month and a half to achieve further improvent and transformation.
If there were any delays in between, this ti would be extended unless his "Palm Healing Jutsu" could advance further from lv8 to lv9.
Otherwise, he could only slowly grind it out.
With this thought, Seii opened the proficiency panel, looked at the lv8 (15234/50000) "Palm Healing Jutsu" on it, and imdiately gave up this naive idea.
In just a month and a half, it was impossible for his "Palm Healing Jutsu" to level up.
"Sigh, let's take it slow!"
With a light sigh, Seii was about to continue his training.
However, at this mont, a surge of chakra returned to his body.
At the sa ti, a piece of training experience and mory also surfaced in his mind.
Seii imdiately closed his eyes, silently digesting this experience and mory, transforming it bit by bit into proficiency for the corresponding skill.
A mont later, Seii opened his eyes, a flash of joy in his eyes.
Then, he raised his hands, completed hand seals in an instant, and perford the jutsu - Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique!
A large amount of chakra surged out from his body, turning the surrounding hundred ters into a vast expanse of white mist in the blink of an eye.
Imdiately afterward, the white mist quickly dissipated, and the surrounding scenery reappeared, as if nothing had happened at all.
This scene of effortless control fully demonstrated Seii's profound mastery of this technique.
In fact, it was indeed the case.
With the previous training experience and mory transford into proficiency, his "Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique" successfully advanced to lv5 (0/0), reaching the state of perfection.
This swept away the gloom in Seii's heart, filling him with hope for the future once again.
However, after the excitent subsided, Seii began to consider the allocation of chakra.
Since the "Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique" was now perfected, the saved five thousand points of chakra needed to be reallocated.
Seii's gaze swept across several skills on the panel, finally settling on "Water Release: Great Shark Bullet Technique."
As a versatile A-rank ninjutsu, he hoped it could be put into actual combat sooner and integrated into his tactical system.
Although it was currently at lv4 and could be used without major problems, that was only against weaker opponents.
If facing opponents of the sa level, unless it was a surprise attack, it would be difficult to achieve good results.
Therefore, increasing investnt appropriately to accelerate its growth was necessary.
With this five thousand points of chakra invested, the proficiency it could gain daily would increase from the original 80 points to 110 points.
This way, it could level up faster.
"Alright, let's do it!"
With the decision made, Seii stopped thinking further, quickly cald his mind, closed the panel, and then began his training.
...
Ti passed by.
About an hour later.
Just as Seii was imrsed in his training, a rush of footsteps approached from afar.
Seii's ears twitched, and he opened his eyes.
A few monts later, a familiar figure appeared before him.
Seii looked at the person and said, "What's the matter, Tetsuka?"
That's right, the person was none other than Uchiha Tetsuka.
For the past period, he had almost handed over all his affairs to him.
Based on the ti, he should have just finished a mission and be resting right now. Why did he co here?
And in such a hurry?
Hearing Seii's question, Uchiha Tetsuka took a deep breath and then said, "Seii, Kirigakure has made a move."
Upon hearing this, Seii's pupils constricted, and he imdiately sat up straight, saying, "Tell
in detail."
It was no wonder he was so cautious, as this matter was too important.
Although Kirigakure hadn't made any drastic moves in the past month, Seii knew that it was just the calm before the storm.
As the Third Shinobi World War gradually approached its end, the struggle between various forces was bound to intensify.
Previously, Kirigakure's lack of action clearly indicated that they were preparing for this.
Now that they had suddenly made a move, he naturally had to treat it with caution.
"This afternoon, when the third team was out on patrol, they saw a small team of Kiri-nin wandering near the coast from a distance. After the two sides encountered each other, the Kiri-nin quickly retreated."
"After returning, I learned about this situation and imdiately inquired about the encounters of other squads. I found that since noon, patrol teams had been seeing Kiri-nin."
"They were widely distributed along the entire defense line, launching attacks everywhere, seemingly probing for weaknesses in our defense."
Hearing Seii's question, Uchiha Tetsuka imdiately recounted the situation the third team encountered and the results of his investigation, explaining everything in detail.
Finally, he said with a slightly worried expression, "Seii, the situation seems a bit unfavorable. I feel like Kirigakure is planning sothing big."
"Hmm."
Seii nodded, acknowledging his thoughts.
He even speculated that Kirigakure had already negotiated terms with Sunagakure and signed a peace treaty.
Next, it was highly likely that they would mobilize all their forces and launch a full-scale attack on them.
In contrast, Konoha didn't seem to be planning to get too entangled with them, at least not for the ti being.
Judging from recent rumors, Seii estimated that Konoha intended to have a decisive battle with Sunagakure first and settle the score.
Then, they would concentrate their forces to deal with Iwagakure and Kirigakure.
From his mories of his past life, Konoha achieved a minor victory in this battle, even if it wasn't at its peak. Sunagakure ultimately signed a peace treaty with Konoha first.
Moreover, to ensure the war ended smoothly, when Iwagakure's radicals attempted to disrupt the peace talks between the two sides, Sunagakure even took the initiative to thwart their plot.
Although this was based on Sunagakure's own interests, the fact that the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, personally intervened indirectly indicated that Konoha held the dominant position in the peace treaty signed with Sunagakure.
Of course, this also laid the groundwork for Sunagakure's later participation in Orochimaru's Konoha Crush plan.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and Seii suddenly shook his head, casting aside these events that hadn't happened yet.
Now, he only wanted to know when Kirigakure would launch their attack and how much longer his peaceful days would last.
Just as he was thinking this, another person arrived. It was a ssenger Chunin, summoning him and Uchiha Tetsuka to the command center for a eting imdiately.
"Well, there's no need to think about it this ti. The peaceful days are over."
Seii felt speechless inwardly and had no choice but to head to the command center with Uchiha Tetsuka.
