6 Chakra
Hello, everyone. Since I think this chapter will be uploaded on Sunday, as I woke up at 5:05 PM, and I'm not sure if I'll have time... in the end, I'll upload it today, although much shorter than previous chapters. At least, it delivered what the title promises.
Today, Friday, I slept for 14 hours, and now I have to go get a haircut since tomorrow is my best friend's birthday, so I don't think I'll have time to write tomorrow.

[Tokigakure, Daimyo's Residence]
[Third-person POV]
As I walked towards my room in the Daimyo's residence, leaning on my cane and being assisted by Asami and Kanao, the weakness in my legs became more evident with each step. The weakness in my legs was overwhelming, and if it weren't for the valuable assistance of my companions, I would fall to the ground, not as the chosen one of Dark Soul, but like Sonic.
I wonder, since I look like a ball, couldn't I roll like Sonic? I mean, if I'm not mistaken, the Akimichi clan has those kinds of jutsus that allow them to roll, and they use it in conjunction with Yamanaka's mind transfer and Nara's shadow.
If I could get my hands on those Akimichi clan jutsus, it would be super easy to lose weight, or some of their secret pills. They can easily lose weight since their members can convert calories in their bodies into chakra, serving as the foundation for their jutsus. For me, that's impossible since they won't sell it to me, nor do I think I can find a member of that clan's body to extract information.
The Ino-Shika-Cho combination is indeed an intelligent combination that allows them to fight against people above their level. And for this reason, I also want there to be a good combination in Tokigakure, that of a warrior, ninja, and samurai. The best part is that, unlike typical fantasy worlds, I don't need a wizard because there are jutsus, nor do I need a healer because there are medical jutsus.
The good thing about the team is also that I have a complete combination that, as a player, I value. In the team, there will be a ninja who plays the role of assassin and jungler, a warrior who plays the role of tank and warrior, and a samurai who plays the role of dealing damage and being the ADC that throws sword strikes from a distance. They all take on the support role with their medical jutsu. In summary, I can create the typical full damage team, although this time it's not a 5 vs 5 battle in a summoner's rift where most are trolls.
Snapping me out of my thoughts, Asami spoke to me.
"Sir, we have arrived at your room," announced Asami as we stopped in front of the door. I internally thanked for the help, aware that my physical weakness was becoming more pronounced, and I could barely walk from how fast my chest was pounding.
With a mix of gratitude and determination, I leaned on the door frame and looked inside my room. It was time to focus on unlocking my chakra and start training to gain strength in this cursed world to survive.
Asami and Kanao offered their support once again, and with their help, I entered the room, where they guided me to the center of the room. There was some kind of chair apparently newly placed, and they helped me sit down. Barely seated, I eagerly asked.
"How do I unlock my chakra, Asami, Kanao?"
Asami and Kanao exchanged glances, and Kanao decided to speak first. As a samurai accustomed to handling chakra without the need for manual seals, she needed to cover her entire sword with chakra to combat ninja jutsus, allowing her to cut or block them with her chakra-covered sword. She walked toward Leonel's sword and placed her hand on the hilt.
"Sir, as a Daimyo, do you at least know the basic principles of chakra? As you know, it's a mixture of physical energy present in every cell of a living being's body and spiritual energy acquired through exercise and experience."
After Kanao finished, Asami, who had appeared behind Leonel, with her hands resting on his back, began to explain.
"Sir, ninjas mostly use hand signs to control chakra, except for our feet, which we train to climb trees and walk on water. This is different from samurai, who focus on controlling chakra in their hands."
Continuing her explanation, Kanao added once more.
"Once chakra is mixed with physical and spiritual energy, it can be channeled through the chakra circulatory system, which is similar to the blood circulatory system but with chakra. We call it Tenketsu, and thanks to years of study, every ninja knows that there are at least 361 Tenketsu in the body. As I explained earlier, ninjas specialize in their feet, while samurai focus on their hands and on an object, although there are exceptions."
When Kanao finished her explanation, Asami began to add.
"The people who can freely control chakra the most are the Hyuga clan. Their special eyes, Byakugan, allow them to see the chakra system of people. Therefore, they can train among themselves to control the chakra of the whole body, being able to expel chakra from areas considered impossible... beyond this, I don't know much, forgive me, my lord." [1]
Asami, after finishing her explanation, reflected a mix of apology and regret in her eyes. Observing Asami's expression, Leonel calmly and hoarsely explained.
"Asami, it's alright. Your explanation of the Hyuga clan and Kanao's explanation of the Tenketsu sparked some ideas in my mind that, if possible to achieve, would be quite beneficial."
Asami, with a composed yet moved tone, responded, "Thank you for your praise, sir. Now, let me explain how you will unlock your chakra."
After taking a brief breath, she continued, "To unlock your chakra, you must focus on the connection between your body and your spiritual energy. We can guide you through the process, and although many can unlock their chakra through training alone, most do it in their childhood. Given your... age, we need to assist you."
"The method we will use is called Ninshu. It is said to have been found in the Hero's Water Temple. It involves connecting our spiritual energies, that is, 'uniting' them. By doing so, you have to make that spiritual energy your own, and by combining it with your own internal physical and spiritual energies, it will cause your chakra to unlock." [2]
Although Leonel was intrigued because the name sounded familiar, he decided to set it aside and focus on what he had at hand. However, before starting, he wanted to make sure and asked both of them something.
"So, my unlocking chakra involves you sending your spiritual energy to me, and after it joins, I make it mine by controlling my internal spiritual and physical energy. How do I do that?"
Kanao pointed and added, "Sir, these are the steps you need to follow. First, sit comfortably and close your eyes. Breathe deeply, feel the flow of energy inside you. Imagine your chakra as a bright light at your center."
Following their instructions, Leonel settled into the chair and closed his eyes. He began to breathe deeply, focusing on his breath and the sensation of energy within him. Asami continued:
"Visualize that light gradually expanding throughout your entire body. Feel it flow freely, removing any blockages that may exist. Start accepting the spiritual energy we are sending you."
Following the instructions, Leonel immersed himself in the experience, feeling the energy flow and expand throughout his body. He concentrated on visualizing the bright light representing his chakra and slowly began to feel the spiritual energy that Asami and Kanao were sending him.
It was a gradual process, but as the energy merged, Leonel could perceive the growing connection between his body and the surrounding spiritual energy.
Asami and Kanao, with hands on his back, watched attentively, offering their silent support during the process.
The room seemed infused with a tranquil atmosphere as Leonel immersed himself in the practice; the imaginary light of Leonel's chakra seemed to gradually intensify.
Asami continued guiding him, "Feel how that energy flows into every part of your body, filling it with vitality and strength. Let your mind immerse itself in this connection between your spiritual and physical energy."
After a few moments, it was Kanao's turn to speak with a serene voice, "Sir, now you must accept this energy as your own. Feel how it integrates with your being, how it becomes a natural extension of your own body."
Leonel followed the instructions, focusing on accepting and assimilating the spiritual energy flowing towards him. Gradually, he felt the connection strengthening, and the light of his chakra seemed more intense and powerful.
Asami, with a relieved expression, murmured, "You're doing well, sir. Keep allowing our energy to merge with yours."
With each breath, Leonel more fully accepted the spiritual energy they offered. The light of his chakra shone with greater intensity, indicating the gradual success of the unlocking process.
Kanao added gently, "Now, when you feel ready, open your eyes and observe how your chakra has changed. You should feel renewed strength and balance."
Following the instructions, Leonel slowly opened his eyes. He felt renewed, with a sense of harmony and vitality he hadn't experienced before. The connection between his body and his spiritual energy had been strengthened, and his chakra was unlocked.
Asami and Kanao, seeing the change in Leonel's expression, subtly smiled, satisfied with the success of the practice. Grateful, Leonel stood up with a bit more ease, feeling a new sensation coursing through him.
"Thank you, Asami, Kanao. Without your help, this wouldn't have been possible," expressed Leonel with gratitude.
Both women respectfully bowed. Kanao spoke, "We are here to serve you, sir. If you have more questions or need further guidance, feel free to ask."
Now feeling much more renewed, thanks to his chakra, Leonel felt he could perceive Mount Tai. He was no longer a frog at the bottom of a well; now, he was a chubby frog with chakra that allowed him to do supernatural things.
Leonel, feeling the renewal of his chakra, was so excited and ready to experience his new strength that he tried to expel it like a Super Saiyan. Unfortunately, so much force had an unexpected effect. It felt as if his body was undergoing an excessive chakra release, and Leonel urgently felt the need to expel everything at that moment.
With a surprised expression, Leonel exclaimed, "Oh, wait, this wasn't in the manual!"
Urgently trying to run away, as the saying goes, 'if something has to go wrong, it will,' Leonel gave it credit, since while trying to run, he ended up tripping and, like a soldier from 300, did not win his battle.
That day, screams were heard throughout the Daimyo's residence, unfortunately not of a Super Saiyan or pleasure, but of a defeated man... one who lost and could only end up halfway. At the end of the day, Leonel left his room as a 'renewed' man

[A final that, since I didn't know how to end it, I concluded in a comedic manner with a reference to the previous chapter.]
I want to note that I didn't edit it much like the previous ones.
[1] One could say it's important to the plot, so don't forget it. If it weren't almost impossible for me to release a chapter tomorrow, I wouldn't say anything. And here's a hint because it's important—Demon Slayer, there you go... no, it's not the first thing that came to your mind. I don't read minds; I'm just quite whimsical, lol.
[I like to make the reader think, that's why I'm leaving this clue, and if someone figures it out in the chapter where this is explained, I'll mention it.] [I hope I don't forget, lol, since I just came up with the idea now for the mention.]
[2] It wasn't created out of nowhere, it exists in the canon, and I suppose many have already figured out which method it is.
