Konoha: Who's the good guy?

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the white keyword "Chrysalis," the black keyword "Brainstorming," and the purple keyword "Shout and it comes."]

The Papaw (White): Under certain stealth actions, the stealth effect and stealth speed are slightly improved, but the personal image is greatly reduced.

A wildly imaginative (dark) interpretation: The probability of head injuries is greatly increased, the hardness and recovery speed of the skull are greatly reduced, and the probability of death is slightly increased.

Speak and you shall receive (purple): Precise control of chakra allows one to abandon tedious hand seals when ninjutsu proficiency is sufficient. With a simple clap of the hands, whatever one shouts, chakra control is greatly enhanced, and the speed of ninjutsu release is greatly increased.

"What is all this crap?"

Shan Zhongjing frowned deeply.

Although when he saw the entry titled "Slightly Knowledgeable," he had a vague feeling that his system might be a bit abstract.

But I never imagined it could be this abstract.

Aside from the last entry, which seems to be related to the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and has a somewhat quirky name, but still has a decent effect.

The first two entries are really... indescribable.

Using the term "pupae" is essentially equivalent to losing the right to choose a partner in Konoha.

And this "mind-blowing" idea actually involves creating a hole in the head in a physical sense?!

"Is this entry... specifically designed to harm people?"

Shan Zhongjing's thoughts shifted, and he glanced at the opportunity to grant the entry from the newbie gift pack.

He was thinking to himself, "If I ever make an enemy of someone, I'll arrange something for them."

This pure debuff is perhaps best used on enemies.

I let my mind wander for a while.

The mountain scenery had just activated the purple keyword "Whatever you shout, comes true".

The next moment, an indescribable sense of enlightenment welled up in my heart.

The countless chakra meridians in his body seemed to be imprinted in his mind, every detail clearly visible.

Every wisp of chakra was under his complete control, as if it were his own arm.

Those ninjutsu techniques that have long been honed through countless trials.

At this moment, it becomes like a bodily instinct, and it can be released with just the simplest guidance.

"Mind Transfer Puppet Seal Technique!"

Yamanaka Kei formed the "Mi" hand seal with one hand and pointed to the puppet doll used for practicing ninjutsu on one side of the room.

The puppet doll, which had been resting quietly against one side of the room, suddenly came to life. After moving its limbs slightly, it performed an extremely smooth display of physical skills.

"Simplified hand seals, one-handed hand seals, truly a sneaky and ingenious technique."

Yamanaka Keishin sighed in admiration and began testing other ninjutsu again.

The unique hand seals used by the Mountain Clan when activating their family's secret techniques are variations of the "Mao" and "You" seals.

It can accelerate the mobilization of Yin energy within the body, allowing the user to release family secret techniques more quickly.

Functionally, it is impeccable.

However, because the features are too obvious, any enemy who knows even a little about the secret techniques of the mountain clan knows that upon seeing this handprint, they should immediately move quickly.

After all, the techniques of the mountain clan are special secret arts involving the power of the soul.

If you act without being absolutely certain of success, and a mistake is made, it will take time for your soul to return to your body.

During this period, even a young child could easily take their life.

Nowadays, they have abandoned special hand seals and gestures, and when they plot against someone, it's absolutely impossible to defend against them.

I spent half a day experimenting with various ninjutsu techniques.

Yamanaka Kei conjured a Rasengan in his palm, feeling the stable chakra ball spinning at high speed, and couldn't help but smile.

He can now perform all his commonly used ninjutsu with one hand or simplified hand seals, making his activation speed more than twice as fast as before!

Some familiar ninjutsu techniques can also achieve the effect of "clapping hands and summoning whatever is called".

For those ninjutsu that are less familiar and only roughly mastered, although the hand seals cannot be simplified, the release speed and the degree of control over the ninjutsu are greatly improved.

In the fast-paced battles of ninjas, sometimes a difference of a fraction of a second is enough to determine the outcome of a fight.

Yamanaka Kei's strength was already quite formidable among Konoha's Jonin.

The attack speed has doubled, and the resulting combat power will undoubtedly be greatly enhanced!

"I wonder if I can compete with Kage-level... Ugh, ugh, ugh~~ Stay calm, stay calm! I absolutely mustn't get cocky!"

Shan Zhongjing kept adjusting his mindset, repeatedly reminding himself not to follow Erzhuzi's reckless ways.

After all, he didn't have Hozuki Suigetsu to help him avert disaster, nor did he have Jugo and Uzumaki Karin to help him prolong his life, and he didn't have an older brother named Uchiha Itachi or a father named Otsutsuki Hagoromo.

If this floats up, who knows if it will be game over immediately.

Moreover, the strength of a Kage-level expert lies not only in their attack speed.

Combat experience, tactical wisdom, ninjutsu combinations, physical strength, reflexes, chakra reserves...

"The road ahead is long and arduous! However, as long as we don't charge directly into the enemy's encirclement during the Third Shinobi World War, we should be able to hold out, right?"

Shan Zhongjing sighed inwardly.

The tension that had been building up due to the approaching Third Shinobi World War eased slightly.

Having experienced the Second Shinobi World War, he knew better than anyone just how brutal the battlefield truly was.

That was a hell filled with blood and screams!

It is a slaughterhouse where humanity has been extinguished, leaving only killing and numbness!

Even though many years have passed.

He still feels lingering fear when he recalls his experiences on the battlefield.

A mountain scene depicts a hand forming a mudra.

The five shadow clones that had been cultivating hidden deep underground in the mansion were instantly dispelled.

The fatigue from cultivating the Shadow Clone Technique, along with the weariness that followed the sudden dissipation of pressure, surged into his mind.

I'm too lazy to fight against my body's instincts anymore.

After casually dispelling the five-directional anti-sensory barrier in the house, Shan Zhongjing hastily finished a dinner and then collapsed onto the fluffy, soft bedding.

A good night's sleep.

the next day.

The morning sunlight dispelled the cool mist.

The birds outside the window flapped their wings and chirped incessantly on the branches.

The mountain scenery awakens from its slumber.

Looking at the clock on the bedroom wall, which was already pointing to ten o'clock, he lazily yawned.

The surge in strength has brought a great sense of security.

This allowed him to sleep very soundly.

"Once you relax, your biological clock goes out of control."

Yamanaka Kei rubbed his face, got up to wash up, and continued to study the system's functions.

The system's methods for obtaining opportunities to extract, gift, copy, upgrade, and strip entries were clearly explained in the previous prompts.

You have a chance to obtain it by completing career tasks and major career events.

As a Konoha Jonin, his professional mission is self-evident.

And major career events...

A Fourth Shinobi World War? A turning point in shinobi history? A major event in a theatrical film?

It seems like either of these requires actively participating in some dangerous events!

Yamanaka Kei tidied his ninja tool bag, put on his clothes, and turned to leave.

Major events can be skipped for now.

For now, let's take his subordinates, who have been waiting all morning, and check the drop rate of normal ninja missions.
