Chapter 3: Taijutsu
Weeks had passed, and Kein has now officially become a Genin, which also earned him the requirements to use the library.
He had made many advancements, such as a chakra increase and improved physicality.
At this moment, he could confidently say he was in the top ten in the academy
...On the day he graduated, he went straight to the library, submitting his Genin badge.
After approval, he rushed to the Taijutsu section.
Picking up books on Taijutsu, he accumulated about ten books.
After this, he sat down and began to open them one by one.
No
No
No
No
No
No
No
After he checked almost all the books, he was about to go search for more books until he saw a string of letters.
|Strong fist technique|
Finally something good, let's see "causes external damage to the opponent bla bla bla requires conditioning the body.
It looks easy enough; now let's see what else to take.
He stood from his seat, and he began to search for anything to add to his list of things to learn.
When he finished searching, he found nothing worth it except for some books on chakra exercise and control.
Kein then took out a scroll and began to write most of the important content in the books.
When he was done, he left the library and headed home while he admired the beauty of the village.
When he arrived home, he simply took out the scroll and began to study.
Why is this so hard?He still couldn't get a grasp of any of the information about the technique.
But he continued to read.
The next day was a weekend, so he was free, and since he couldn't learn the strong fist technique,.
Maybe there is another way around this.
He decided to spy on the Might guy, maybe so he could get some insight trailing behind his target, who was running around the village.
Sigh, why would anyone be awake this early in the morning? he yawned.
He continued to trail until the guy stopped at a training ground and began doing push-ups.
When will this end? he groaned in agony.
After another half an hour, a guy began to train his Taijutsu.
Finally, the strong fist technique he continued to watch Might guys display of Taijutsu.
He still couldn't get it until he heard it.

It looks like the system has more to offer than I thought.

A few minutes in progress, the rate began to slow down.
Assimilation: 65%...66%.....69%...71%..72%...74%....76%
Why is it so slow? He groaned and sighed momentarily as he waited for its completion.
After another minute or so.
Assimilation: 100% complete
Strong fist technique has been learned.
With this completed, he quickly left his hiding spot and ran back home.
So stressful, I don't think I will be able to do this in the future.
Resting a bit, he began to operate the interface.
He then removed the academy taijutsu and replaced it with the strong fist technique.

{Iron fist technique}
Iron what? This is starting to seem like a martial arts story.
Iron fist technique Let's see what you can do.
He then looked at the now-empty slot that belonged to Academy Taijutsu.
After removing one slot for the shadow clone, he then inserted the iron fist technique twice.
[Current first slot: Iron fist technique]
{Effect: This involves infusing chakra into the user's fists, enhancing strength and durability. This technique gives the fists a metallic appearance and is used for powerful strikes in close-quarters combat, requiring precise chakra control.}
Done! All that was left was to wait. He began to try out other things.
Waiting for the run to be completed, he took out the chakra exercise and control book copy.
Now let's see, chakra is the combination of both mental and physical energy, focus, and creating an imaginary ball in the center of the body.
Imaginary ball!
Ball!
Or more like a core, like in those mage stories where they have cores for energy storage.
But can I try the same?Kein couldn't help but think about the possibilities.
Well, it doesn't hurt to try, but will it?
Kein knew that there were possible complications, but this could be a milestone to achieve.
After he made the decision, he went to the backyard and sat on the ground in a lotus position.
and began to reminence.
Imagine an imaginary ball in the center of your body, but he quickly stopped.
But wait a moment, won't it also be a weakness?
Imagine I met an opponent who can see chakra. Won't they know my weak point as well?
Unless I hid it, I think this could work. He began to gather focus again.
Imagine an imaginary ball next to your heart.
When the image has been fixed, begin to gather chakra from your body and cells and continue to compress it.
Then envision the surrounding chakra and begin to absorb slowly, making it yours.
Using the surrounding chakra, begin to envision its stability and resiliance and create perfect harmony between the two.
Just as he finished, he began to move it into his heart, beginning a fusion between the two, and when they were fully integrated,
It formed a barrier of chakra, as if signifying their union.
While the heart hides it, it protects the heart, and the barrier is made to look like a part of the tenketsu to those who can see chakra.
Boom!!! A loud explosion was heard as a crater appeared on the ground when he came back to his senses.
He looked around to notice the crater that he stood in as the center.
Phew! Good thing it wasn't in the house.
But then he heard a voice.
Kein!, kein! The figure quickly dispelled the dust by flaring their chakra.
Spotting someone in the dust, she shouts, Kein, are you okay? Aunt Kiyomi am fine, see.
What caused this explosion? I hope you are not hurt.
She began to scan every inch of Kein, though not literally.
