Naruto: The Uchiha remnants of the Senju clan!

Chapter 49 Improving Hand Bloodline Purity

"Strange power?"

Qingyu immediately perked up.

Tsunade's "superhuman strength" is one of the most iconic skills in the Naruto world.

A single punch can crack the ground.

The principle is to precisely concentrate chakra and unleash it the instant the fist or foot makes contact with the target, thereby generating astonishing destructive power.

"You've been training with Maruboshi Kosuke in swordsmanship for so long, your physical strength and chakra levels have improved, so your basics should be sufficient."

Tsunade spoke.

"Super strength requires a high level of chakra control. Too little chakra means no power, and too much can easily injure yourself."

"You're at the perfect age to start learning. If you get any older and your bones are fully developed, it will take you longer to adapt. Let's go to the backyard later and I'll see how well you can control your chakra. If you pass, I'll start teaching you today."

After she finished speaking, she returned to her languid demeanor and let Qingyu continue applying the ointment.

Seeing this, Kiyoyu had no choice but to submit to Tsunade's tyranny.

"The application looks pretty convincing."

Tsunade observed Qingyu's movements.

"Have you been secretly practicing?"

"Applying nail polish and applying medicine to wounds are essentially both delicate operations performed with your hands in small areas."

Qingyu said without looking up.

Tsunade thought about it and realized that she really couldn't refute it.

After Qingyu finished applying the paint to the last toe, he screwed on the cap and looked up at Tsunade.

The dark red nail polish shimmered faintly under the light, making the insteps of her feet appear even whiter and smoother.

After it was finished, Tsunade spoke:

"Let me check on your development later."

Qingyu paused for a moment, then looked up at Tsunade.

The scene was silent for several seconds.

Is he so small that he can pull a big cart?

"...Tsunade-nee, what you said is easy to misunderstand."

"What misunderstanding?"

Tsunade didn't react at first, but when she saw Qingyu's handsome face with its subtle expression, she suddenly understood and slapped Qingyu on the back of the head.

"What's going on in your head at such a young age? I'm talking about whether you can learn 'superhuman strength'."

Tsunade then had Kiyoyu take off his shirt, and after checking him over, she took Kiyoyu to the backyard.

Tsunade slammed her fist into the ground, creating a huge crater.

Qingyu's eyelids twitched.

If that hit someone, wouldn't they be in excruciating pain?

Tsunade then began to explain the principles behind this technique to Kiyoha.

Qingyu listened attentively.

Tsunade's superhuman strength system is fundamentally different from ordinary taijutsu.

Ordinary taijutsu enhances striking power by training muscle strength, and at most, uses chakra to further enhance the explosive power of the muscles.

But "super strength" is different; it releases chakra in a high-density form all at once the moment the fist touches the target.

Therefore, the amount of chakra cannot be too small.

If there is too little, even if the control is precise, the power that can be unleashed will be limited.

Neither of these two points are a problem for Qingyu right now.

His chakra reserves, enhanced by the Senju bloodline, far exceed those of his peers, and his chakra control has been honed to a high degree through medical ninjutsu training.

After listening to Tsunade's explanation several times, Qingyu slowly gathered his chakra in his right fist.

He could clearly feel the chakra flowing through his meridians, passing through the largest meridian system at his heart, and then flowing down his arm to his fist.

But when he tried to unleash his chakra at the moment of punching, the chakra spread out on his fist and failed to form that concentrated penetrating force.

"That's good, you should be able to master it soon."

Tsunade nodded.

…………

Holidays always go by so fast.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed.

Qingyu acquired some traits here and there, all of which increased his basic abilities, such as [Diligent Study], which increased his learning ability by 20%.

[Fine Perception], increases perception ability by 30%, etc.

Unfortunately, Qingyu did not collect the [Breakthrough Intuition] that she had always wanted.

The wooden stakes in the yard had been broken into pieces from Qingyu's practice of boxing, and had to be replaced many times.

Tsunade scolded him for being wasteful, then turned around and dragged back an even thicker log from the lumberyard.

For more than half a year, Qingyu practiced "super strength" day after day in the backyard.

"drink!"

The moment Qingyu's fist struck the wooden stake, chakra burst forth from his fist, sending wood chips flying and creating another shallow dent on the target.

He pulled his fist back and looked at the back of his hand. The skin at the joints was only slightly red, without any broken skin or bruises.

The superhuman strength requires extremely high chakra control; releasing it too early will cause the chakra to spread out on the fist, while releasing it too late will prevent it from penetrating.

But Qingyu discovered that she had an unexpectedly good affinity with this technique, making it much easier for her to practice.

In Tsunade's words, he has now mastered half of it.

When the fist is thrown, the chakra can keep up with the rhythm of the force, but the timing of the burst is not stable enough.

Sometimes a punch can create a deep crater in a wooden stake, while other times it only leaves a crack on the surface.

Besides his "superhuman strength," Kiyoha also learned new water-style ninjutsu from Maruboshi Kosuke.

Qingyu also gained a trait called [Logistics and Culinary Skills] from him, which increases the deliciousness of food by 30%.

Qingyu pondered whether if this trait continued to improve, she could make people feel that her clothes would burst off from the food after just one bite.

As for water-style ninjutsu, Kiyoha learned Tobirama Senju's "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique" from Maruboshi Kosuke.

This was originally taught by Tobirama Senju to Kosuke Maruboshi, but now it has been taught to Kiyoha again.

The standard version of this technique requires forty-four hand seals to release, but Tobirama Senju's simplified version reduced the hand seals to four, resulting in a higher efficiency in chakra mobilization.

After completing the four hand seals in succession, a rapidly spinning stream of water surged out from behind Qingyu, spiraling upwards in the water and gradually condensing into the shape of a dragon.

The water dragon's form was not solid enough, and the outline of its head was somewhat blurry. After swaying in the air a few times, it scattered with a splash, spilling water all over the ground.

"It's still a bit unstable; it needs more time to adapt."

Qingyu shook the water droplets off her hands.

Tsunade leaned against the door frame, watching this scene, holding a cold roasted chicken leg in her hand.

She stuffed the chicken leg into her mouth and took a bite, but then suddenly stopped chewing.

Qingyu picked up a towel from the ground and wiped his face. He turned around and saw Tsunade looking at him with a very complicated expression.

"Tsunade-nee, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just think you're cultivating a bit too fast."

Tsunade threw the chicken bone into the trash can, licked the oil off her fingers, making her lips look shiny.

"At this rate, it will be fully released this month."

She shook her head, her mind preoccupied with something else.

Qingyu's Sharingan has not evolved since it was awakened; it has remained in the form of a single tomoe.

However, the evolution of the Sharingan requires intense pain as a catalyst. Qingyu, with his calm and indifferent nature, rarely experiences emotional fluctuations, let alone great joy or sorrow.

But now it seems that the speed of training is getting faster and faster, and the amount of chakra is also steadily increasing. At this rate, it is probably not necessary to have any emotional stimulation. The increase in chakra and physical growth alone will be enough.
