After collecting his thoughts, Seimei began allocating his chakra.
Currently, with seven captives and himself, he had a total of 62,000 chakra points available for use each day.
After some consideration, he decided to allocate 30,000 points to practicing the Mystical Palm Technique, allowing him to gain 200 proficiency points daily.
As the primary means of increasing his "Physique" attribute in the near future, Seimei wouldn't be stingy with chakra investment.
As for the remaining 32,000 chakra points...
Seimei planned to allocate 15,000 points, equally distributed among the Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu, Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique, and Wind Style: Breakthrough.
The first two were to quickly level them up to max level and enhance his combat capabilities, while the latter was to master the shape and nature transformation of Wind Style chakra.
This would provide a good foundation for future practice of Wind Style: Wind Blade, development of Wind Style: Rasenshuriken, and attempts to create the Instantaneous Sword Technique.
Thinking of the Instantaneous Sword Technique, Seimei couldn't help but think of two other sword techniques - Shadow Sword Technique and Illusion Sword Technique.
The Shadow Sword Technique wasn't feasible yet, but the Illusion Sword Technique was almost ready.
Seimei glanced at his panel. His Genjutsu: Sharingan proficiency was already over halfway.
So, as long as he invested 12,000 chakra points in it every day, he could master it to Lv7 (0/0) within a month.
Then, he could try combining it with Swordsmanship to create the Illusion Sword Technique.
"Alright, let's do it!"
Seimei made up his mind.
This left him with only 5,000 disposable chakra points.
After some thought, he decided to allocate 500 points to Swordsmanship practice and another 1,500 points to Shadow Clone Jutsu practice.
The former was to support the creation of the Illusion Sword Technique.
If his Genjutsu: Sharingan proficiency was sufficient but his Swordsmanship level wasn't, it would be a big problem.
So, his Swordsmanship level had to be improved.
The latter was to lay the foundation for creating the Shadow Sword Technique.
However, when practicing the Shadow Clone Jutsu, he needed to pay special attention to his chakra levels and only practice when his chakra wasn't abundant, or the consumption would be too high.
As for the remaining 3,000 chakra points...
Seimei decided to invest them all in Rasengan practice. This technique was related to the development of the S-rank jutsu Wind Style: Rasenshuriken, so he couldn't neglect it.
With this, all 62,000 chakra points were allocated.
Next was the time arrangement.
He couldn't stay here and train all the time, using a shadow clone to fool around at the base.
This base was originally Iwa territory.
Even if they couldn't send reinforcements temporarily, they wouldn't let them stay here peacefully. So, in the future, it was highly likely that there would be frequent harassment, just like in the past week.
As a Jonin, he definitely had to participate in battles.
Now that he had gained some fame, the enemy wouldn't send weaklings to deal with him anymore. They would definitely send Jonin.
Therefore, if he used a shadow clone to fight, it was very likely to be exposed.
Seimei didn't want to be questioned by the village afterward, so he had to go in person.
Besides, he also wanted to use the enemy to hone his Swordsmanship, so he couldn't be absent.
Therefore, he needed to plan carefully when to train which skills.
Time passed by.
Seimei sat cross-legged, carefully considering his training plan.
After a long while, he finally came to his senses, having made up his mind.
First, he decided to practice Genjutsu: Sharingan, Rasengan, and Shadow Clone Jutsu, three skills that wouldn't cause too much commotion and wouldn't take too much time, at the secret base.
As for skills like Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu, Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique, and Wind Style: Breakthrough, which were more noticeable, he planned to practice them at the base.
After all, these three skills only consumed a total of 15,000 chakra points. The chakra he recovered on his own was just enough to sustain them, so there was no need to worry about running out of chakra.
As for Swordsmanship...
It was a skill that took a lot of time to practice and also caused quite a bit of commotion, so he could only practice it at the base or on the battlefield.
Fortunately, it didn't require much chakra. Whether it was absorbing from the captives or supplying it himself, there was no problem.
So, there was no need to think too much about it.
The only tricky one was the Mystical Palm Technique.
Although practicing this technique wouldn't cause much commotion, it consumed a lot of chakra and required a considerable amount of time.
Of course, if it was just to increase the proficiency of the Mystical Palm Technique, it wouldn't take too long, and he could complete it entirely at the secret base.
But the problem was that Seimei needed to use the Yang Release chakra condensed by it to strengthen his body. He definitely wouldn't dispel it immediately after casting it.
Based on his previous experience, each strengthening session required about three minutes.
Two hundred times meant six hundred minutes, a full ten hours.
Therefore, considering the time spent practicing other skills, the time he could stay at the secret base wouldn't be enough.
This meant that he could only practice this technique at the base.
However, practicing this technique required a lot of chakra. The twenty-seven thousand chakra points he could recover daily on his own definitely wouldn't be enough.
But at the same time, he couldn't keep running back to the secret base to replenish his chakra.
That would undoubtedly increase the risk of the secret base being exposed.
This was something Seimei absolutely couldn't accept.
So, he could only divide the practice of this technique into two parts, with one part done at the secret base.
During this time, Seimei needed to minimize his sleep time as much as possible.
Only then would he have enough time to train.
As for the other part, naturally, it would be practiced at the base.
Currently, the amount of chakra he could recover daily was twenty-seven thousand points.
After deducting the chakra used for Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu, Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique, Wind Style: Breakthrough, and Swordsmanship, he still had over eleven thousand points left.
This was enough to alleviate some of the pressure.
Therefore, he could divide the practice time for the Mystical Palm Technique into two parts, completing them at the secret base and the base respectively.
"Phew—"
Seimei exhaled deeply, reviewing his training plan. After confirming there were no problems, he began his training according to the plan.
...
Time flew by.
A week passed in the blink of an eye.
One evening, Seimei led his team back to the base after completing their routine patrol.
After confirming that there was nothing else for him to do, he left a shadow clone behind and headed towards the secret base.
Over the past week, he had secretly captured two more Iwa Chunin, providing him with an additional ten thousand chakra points daily.
He invested all this chakra into practicing the Mystical Palm Technique, further compressing his sleep time at the secret base.
Finally, he successfully leveled it up more than a day ahead of schedule.
Now, its proficiency had increased from Lv4 (350/2000) to Lv5 (20/5000).
Now, when he used this technique to condense Yang Release chakra to strengthen his body cells, Seimei could clearly feel the evolution of his physique.
He estimated that in about half a month, his physique would undergo a transformation.
At that time, both his chakra limit and chakra recovery speed would increase simultaneously.
Seimei eagerly anticipated that day. He entered the base, checked the condition of the nine captives, and after confirming there were no problems, he began his training as usual.
