Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 24 Daily Life

Dawn slowly opened the curtain, and another brilliant and colorful morning descended on the world with freshness.

Within the Uchiha clan's compound, beside the training grounds, in a small grove of trees, a lithe figure darted through the gaps in the trees like a cheetah and disappeared.

The rapid panting sounded like the bellows being pulled beside an old blacksmith's furnace. It was also like the breathing of a young beast, not yet fully formed, but already bearing the markings of a tiger or leopard.

He swept past a thicket of bushes, twisting and turning to avoid the thorns within, and Uchiha Toshiro's figure flashed by.

He was doing his daily morning exercise, but unlike the slow jogging he started two years ago, he was now sprinting at breakneck speed. His body and the weight he wore underneath his vest were all heavily loaded.

The total weight of his body exceeds 50 kilograms.

This seems a bit exaggerated for a boy who is less than 120 centimeters tall and weighs only about 28 kilograms. However, in the ninja world, the existence of such a mysterious power as chakra is not surprising.

Unlike Li in the original story, who always carried the weights on his body, he only wore them during his morning exercise to prevent any adverse effects on his future physical development.

His running training method is also different from that of ordinary people. Ordinary people usually choose a flat area to run laps in order to increase the distance and train their endurance.

Instead, he entered a forest and began running at top speed without using chakra. He constantly evaded various obstacles along the way, such as branches and thorns protruding from the trees and bushes.

Running at high speed in the dim morning light poses a severe challenge to one's reaction time, control, balance, and joints such as the ankles.

Adding that 50 kilograms of weight would be a significant test of his physical strength, endurance, and explosive power. A slight misstep could result in injury or even serious injury.

[53 minutes and 49 seconds, this week's average time is two minutes better than last week's] He took out his pocket watch, checked the time.

This is a calculation method he designed for himself. Whenever his average weekly time on a route reaches 50 minutes, he adds five kilograms of weight to enhance the training effect.

【Okay! Keep it up! You can do it!】

After giving himself a pep talk, Uchiha Toshiro, exhausted and with trembling legs, stepped into his house.

"I'm back!" she shouted weakly, feeling much lighter after unloading the burden on her body.

"Breakfast will be ready soon. Sit down, rest for a while, and have a glass of water!" Uchiha Mika's voice came from the kitchen as always.

Five minutes later, Toshiro was feasting at the table. His appetite had increased dramatically in the past two years, now rivaling that of the adult Uchiha Mika.

To increase his physical energy, he didn't miss any of the relatively simple and effective ways to boost his energy, such as strengthening his training, increasing his nutrient intake, and eating smaller, more frequent meals.

While Uchiha Mika, as a medical ninja, didn't specifically study nutrition, the breakfasts, bento boxes, lunches, and dinners she prepared for him were always nutritious and delicious, providing a solid foundation for his future as a strong ninja.

After breakfast, as usual, we had an hour of meditation practice. Afterwards, I walked out of the compound gate with Uchiha Mika. One of us headed to the Ninja Academy, and the other to the police force.

Meanwhile, at Toshiro's house, there is another Toshiro diligently practicing swordsmanship at the dojo.

That's right, the one who went out with Uchiha Mika to the Ninja Academy was his shadow clone.

A year ago, after completing his training in tree climbing and water walking, Uchiha Toshiro began his training in ninjutsu. He didn't try to learn too much, choosing only the four most basic techniques from the scrolls.

Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique, Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Firework Technique, Shadow Clone Technique, and also the Illusion Technique: Illusionary Abyss Appearance Technique.

The training of Fire Release and Illusion Technique went exceptionally smoothly, and the three techniques were completed in just two weeks.

He encountered a problem while practicing Shadow Clone Technique, not that he couldn't successfully use it. However, the Shadow Clone Technique he created couldn't last as long as he expected, only about twenty or thirty minutes.

This is reasonable, given his two lifetimes and his practice of meditation. His mental strength is exceptionally outstanding, allowing him to achieve twice the results with half the effort in everything he does, whether it's reading and studying, controlling his own chakra, or learning illusion techniques.

However, his age of six has limited the development of his physical energy, and insufficient chakra has always been a major problem he has faced over the years.

Even now, with the ability to use shadow clones to attend school in his place, there are still many limitations. He tries to remain still as much as possible in class. He usually just borrows a few books from the library to read, passively becoming a quiet, handsome young man.

When it comes to outdoor classes, the Ninja Academy student has to take the stage in person. Fortunately, outdoor classes at the Ninja Academy are usually scheduled for the afternoon, while the mornings are mostly for theoretical learning.

Therefore, he has made significant changes to his spiritual practice plan. He gets up before dawn every morning, runs with a heavy load, then meditates before breakfast, and then creates a shadow clone to go to school.

Afterwards, they will practice physical skills and swordsmanship, with a one-hour break in between. They will eat something to replenish their energy, and then have lunch and rest immediately after the shadow clones dissipate at noon.

In the afternoon, he personally went to school to attend classes and participate in outdoor activities, which served as a form of rest. Of course, he also created a shadow clone to practice chakra nature transformation at home. However, this clone wouldn't last until he finished school; it would usually dissipate automatically after an hour or two.

In his view, the Shadow Clone Technique was quite extraordinary. It was completely different from ordinary ninjutsu formed by nature transformations such as fire, wind, earth, lightning, and water.

The ability to create an exact replica of oneself, replacing one's own training, reconnaissance, and combat, and even transferring related experiences and memories back into one's own body at the end, is extraordinary. He suspects this ninjutsu is a technique derived from Yin-Yang Release.

This is also a way to train one's physical and mental energy. By using shadow clones to continuously bring oneself new knowledge, experience, and fatigue, one's mental energy circulates through constant consumption and recovery, thus achieving the goal of growth.

In the original story, Naruto only began to rise to prominence after acquiring this ninjutsu.
