Note :- Qi and Blood = Chakra

According to this, even if he punched himself a thousand times, his Qi and blood (Chakra) might not increase by 1 point. Moreover, he might as well practice physical skills to increase his Qi and blood more.
However, according to the nature of cause and effect reversal, the more others practice, the stronger they become, but the more he practices, the weaker he will become.
"Can it be that only when attacked by others can Qi and blood (Chakra) and defense be increased a lot, but not when you hit yourself?" Watanabe guessed.
He felt regretful. He wanted to rely on the bug to hide at home and abuse himself crazily to become stronger, but now this road is broken.
The improvement he got from hiding at home and abused himself for a day was not even as good as others running in the morning, so of course it didn't work.
"If there is a physical skill that is both powerful and can damage the body, it would be great if I practiced that physical skill. I can definitely get twice the result with half the effort." Watanabe sighed. He didn't understand the plot of the Naruto world, and he didn't know whether the physical skill he imagined existed.
After pondering for a long time, Watanabe thought about how to improve his strength efficiently by reversing cause and effect, while subconsciously entering the state of practice to refine the chakra in his body.
[Practicing: Chakra (Qi and Blood) -1, -2, -2...]
"Fuck!"
Watanabe was shocked. He didn't have much chakra to begin with, and one-fifth of it was deducted after just a short practice.
"What kind of practice is this!"
Watanabe just lay down, emptying his mind and thinking about nothing.
[Lazy: Chakra (Qi and Blood) +3, +4, +3...]
"..."
Not to mention, the chakra that was increased at this moment was much more efficient than the chakra he usually accumulated through practice.
"This is also a good way to become stronger!"
Watanabe's eyes lit up, very surprised.
If he continued to be lazy at this pace, it wouldn't take long for his chakra to surpass geniuses like Orochimaru and Tsunade, and he would truly achieve a counterattack from a waste.
However, the more chakra a ninja has, the more powerful it is. They also need to master advanced ninjutsu. Take the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen as an example. It is said that he can understand and use all the existing ninjutsu in Konoha, and is known as the professor of ninjutsu and the strongest Hokage.
"The ninja school only teaches the basic three-body technique. The more advanced ninjutsu is controlled by the great ninja clans and the Konoha high-level officials. If you want to learn advanced ninjutsu, you must make outstanding contributions to the village, or join other ninja clans. It's a bit difficult..."
Watanabe's civilian status is a limitation after all. Not only does he not have the blood limit passed down from generation to generation by the ninja clan, but he even has difficulty finding a way to learn advanced ninjutsu. After hesitating for a moment, Watanabe stopped struggling.
He will think about ninjutsu later. What he needs to do now is to improve his chakra and blood as much as possible, so that when the opportunity comes in the future, he will have enough strength to grasp it.
With this thought, Watanabe was full of energy, turned over and changed to a comfortable position to continue lying down.
[Lazy: Chakra (blood and Qi) +4, +5, +4...]
As Watanabe was lazy, time passed by, and soon night fell, and the house was shrouded in darkness.
Watanabe suddenly remembered that he hadn't eaten dinner, and was about to go to the kitchen to cook instant noodles, when -
[Hungry: Fullness +4, Stamina +2, Weakness -3...]
Watanabe was stunned, unbelievable: "There is such a good thing?!"
If he didn't need to eat, then he wouldn't have to worry about his livelihood at all. At this stage, he was so poor that he could hardly afford to eat, and it was not just talk.
Then he felt it carefully, and his stomach really didn't feel hungry, but instead felt like he was full from a full meal.
"How much money can I save by skipping three meals a day!"
Watanabe felt happy just thinking about it.
However, he soon stopped being happy, because as time passed, his stomach felt more and more full, as if a person who had already eaten a full meal was still eating non-stop.
[Hungry: Fullness +5, Stamina +3, Weakness -2...]
"No, if I don't eat, I will be full to death."
Watanabe was very uncomfortable with the fullness, even more uncomfortable than being hungry. He gritted his teeth, got out of bed and went to the kitchen.
Only after he finished two bowls of hot instant noodles did his stomach return to normal.
[Eating: Hunger +15, Weakness +5, Physical Strength -6...]
"If I continue to eat, will I starve myself to death?"
Rubbing his flat belly, Watanabe was curious and depressed.
He originally thought that he could skip three meals a day with the characteristics of cause and effect reversal, but now it seems that the expenses on food and drink are still unavoidable.
Others will starve to death if they don't eat, but he will die of gluttony.
Cause and effect reversal, worthy of you.

...
Time goes back to the evening.
In the Hokage Building, Sarutobi Hiruzen finished his official business for the day and read the report submitted to him by the ninja school teacher.
Regardless of the grade, the ninja school will hold two actual combat competitions every school year, aiming to tap the potential seeds in the school. After all, the ninja school's students represent the next generation of Konoha. In addition to serving as Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen also serves as the principal of the ninja school. Today, Hiruzen is young and capable.
He first checked the actual combat situation of Class A in the fourth year. He has been paying attention to Tsunade in these years. Tsunade's identity is really special. As the granddaughter of the first Hokage, Hashirama, she was born to be the focus of everyone's attention.
In fact, Hiruzen wanted to take Tsunade as his personal disciple a long time ago and train her to be his confidant, just like Tobirama taught him, but Uzumaki Mito refused. Just a few years after the end of the First Shinobi World War, the five major countries ushered in a short and precious peace. Uzumaki Mito wanted to give Tsunade a carefree childhood and let her stay in the ninja school like a normal child until graduation. Anyway, Tsunade usually has her teaching at home, so she doesn't need Hiruzen as a teacher.
Although Hiruzen was helpless about Uzumaki Mito's refusal, he didn't dare to force it. If there is someone that the Hokage fears in Konoha, that person must be Uzumaki Mito. The first, second, and third generations of Hokage have all been intimidated by her.
"Hmm? This child named Watanabe is a good seedling."
Looking at the report presented by Osaka Rukawa, Hiruzen murmured.
He thought that Tsunade would defeat her in actual combat with overwhelming force, but Watanabe was surprisingly tenacious in the battle with Tsunade. He was knocked down again and again, but he stood up again and again. He even asked Tsunade to go all out and not show mercy, and he wanted to lose gracefully.
Hiruzen knew Osaka Rukawa and was an excellent teacher who was pragmatic. The report he wrote by hand would not be adulterated. The actual situation at that time was probably more moving than what he wrote.
Hiruzen lit up his pipe and exhaled a puff of mist.
He was born to appreciate people like Watanabe who were tenacious and refused to admit defeat. His father Sarutobi Sasuke was a famous iron-blooded hero in the Warring States Period. He originally intended to pay attention to Tsunade, but he accidentally discovered a potential seed that caught his eye.
"After graduation, he can be assigned an elite jonin as a team leader. How far he can grow in the end depends on his own ability."
