Chapter 7 - CHAPTER 7

Attribute Sorting and Thinking Acceleration

The night had passed, and the sun was beginning to rise.

For once, Uchiha Yue did not wake up early to train like he usually did. Instead, he allowed himself to sleep in, a rare indulgence that reminded him of his past life.

"Hmm… it's already this late? Looks like I won't be making it to the Jōnin-led lessons today. I just hope Murata-sensei won't be too mad."

Glancing at his alarm clock with a lazy expression, Yue muttered to himself, though there was no real concern in his tone. Skipping class was nothing new for him.

For the past few months, his mind had been consumed by the impending Uchiha massacre. Desperate to grow stronger and ensure his own survival, he had prioritized training over the structured curriculum of the Academy. To him, the lessons were nothing more than a waste of time.

In fact, he had already skipped class more times than he could count. If not for his homeroom teacher, Murata—who was uncharacteristically persistent and even bold enough to venture into the Uchiha district to drag him back—he might have completely forgotten about school altogether. After all, Murata was an original character, someone who never appeared in the manga's story.

"Sleeping in is truly one of life's greatest pleasures. Unfortunately, in a world like this, how many people can really afford to enjoy it?"

However, the crisis had not been completely resolved, so it wasn't the time to let his guard down.

The matter of the Ninja Academy and its teachers suddenly came to mind, but Uchiha Yue quickly pushed it aside. He muttered to himself, and the lazy air around him vanished, replaced by a newfound determination.

Perhaps due to his immense growth in strength, the pressure that had weighed on him before had eased, and with this rare moment of relaxation, his accumulated fatigue had finally lifted. Now, Uchiha Yue was brimming with energy and confidence, exuding an aura that naturally drew attention.

Time passed quickly. After taking his time to freshen up and enjoy a proper breakfast, his thoughts returned to the improvement of his abilities. He casually organized a simple data panel for himself, assessing his progress with renewed focus.

Name: Uchiha Yue

Rank: Chūnin (enhanced by White Zetsu cells)

Spirit: Kage-level (due to Mangekyō Sharingan)

Chakra Reserves: Jōnin-level (continuously growing)

Chakra Natures: Fire, Wind, Earth, Water

Kekkei Genkai:

Mangekyō Sharingan (Abilities: Izanagi, Izanami, Unreal World Genjutsu, Susanoo)

Wood Release (Limited, due to partial White Zetsu cell fusion)

Ninjutsu Proficiency:

Clone Techniques: Shadow Clone Technique, Substitution Jutsu (Kawarimi no Jutsu)

Uchiha Combat Techniques: Shurikenjutsu (Uchiha Flow Throwing)

Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique (Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu)

Wind Release: Gale Palm (Fūton: Reppūshō)

Taijutsu Proficiency: Basic-level, enhanced by White Zetsu cells but lacking mastery

Genjutsu Proficiency:

Sharingan-based Genjutsu (Visual Hypnosis, Illusions)

Overall Strength Evaluation: Elite Jōnin-level (capable of threatening Kage-level opponents under specific conditions)

Analysis:

Uchiha Yue's combat ability is heavily reliant on his Mangekyō Sharingan, which elevates him to a Kage-level threat in battle. His ability to use both Izanagi and Izanami grants him an edge in specific confrontations, while his personal technique, Unreal World, suggests a unique genjutsu ability.

His recent fusion with White Zetsu cells has significantly enhanced his chakra reserves and physical endurance, but his Wood Release remains incomplete, likely due to an imperfect integration of Hashirama's cells. Without the boost from his Sharingan, his physical capabilities remain average for a high-level ninja.

Despite these advantages, his weaknesses lie in his relative lack of advanced taijutsu skill and reliance on dojutsu and external enhancements for peak performance. Nonetheless, his overall combat effectiveness places him at the Elite Jōnin level, making him a formidable opponent.

At that time, if you had used the Mangekyō Sharingan to fight at a much lower level than now, you would have been forced to collapse within seconds—far worse than Kakashi, who at least had the excuse of severe chakra limitations when using his Sharingan.

Beyond that, apart from the innate abilities of the Sharingan, Uchiha Yue's skills in ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu were embarrassingly lacking. This was completely inconsistent with the reputation and strength expected of someone with such a powerful dōjutsu.

"It seems I need to take some time to strengthen my fundamentals in ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu. Otherwise, I'll be forced to rely on the Mangekyō Sharingan for every battle, which is far too wasteful," Uchiha Yue thought to himself as he carefully examined his current abilities. With a clear goal in mind for his next stage of training, he wasted no time in taking action.

Without hesitation, he retrieved a small box from his room and pulled out seven or eight scrolls from within.

As a member of the Uchiha clan, and the son of parents who had awakened the Sharingan—his father even reaching the level of a Jōnin with a fully matured Three-Tomoe Sharingan—it was only natural that he had inherited some valuable techniques and resources.

However, before recovering the memories of his past life, Uchiha Yue, despite having excellent talent, was not at a monstrous level. With no proper guidance and only self-directed training, his progress had been far from ideal.

However, even so, he had mastered Fire Style and Wind Style techniques, as well as a special Shadow Clone Technique, making his overall strength far superior to his peers.

"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet, Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire, Fire Style: Dragon Flame Release Song, Wind Style: Pressure Damage, Wind Style: Wind Cutter, Wind Style: Thousand Faces Gale... Oh? There's also Earth Style: Earth Wall? That's unexpected."

As he examined the scrolls one by one, Uchiha Yue read the names of the jutsu aloud, then suddenly expressed surprise.

Originally, Uchiha Yue's innate chakra natures were only Fire and Wind. However, after assimilating White Zetsu's cells the previous night and obtaining an incomplete version of Wood Style, he also gained access to Earth and Water Release.

Before this, he had been considering seeking out Earth and Water Style techniques to make use of his newfound chakra natures.

Now, to his surprise, he had discovered an Earth Style jutsu among the inheritance left by his parents.

"It seems I overlooked this before, but I found it just in time."

Muttering to himself, Uchiha Yue unrolled the scroll. His fully matured Sharingan, with its three tomoe, easily copied the contents into his mind without missing a single detail.

I have to say, the Sharingan is incredibly convenient. Not only does it provide immense support in combat, but it also evolves into even more powerful dojutsu, such as the Mangekyō Sharingan, which grants formidable abilities. Even its less conspicuous features, like enhanced perception and memory, can save countless hours of training if used effectively.

It's no wonder that every Uchiha who awakens their Sharingan is quickly recognized as a genius, achieving feats that others can only admire.

After reviewing the ninjutsu he needed to practice, Uchiha Yue put the scrolls back. However, instead of heading to the training ground, he remained where he was.

Closing his eyes, his consciousness sank into an illusory world—a realm entirely under his control.

As his perspective shifted, he once again entered this personal domain. With a mere thought, a vast and fully equipped training ground materialized, complete with perfect facilities for all kinds of training.

Moreover, as soon as the training ground formed, the flow of time within this illusory space accelerated, powered by his Sharingan's abilities. In moments, time was moving at a rate hundreds of times faster than the real world.

"Hmm... At a hundred times the normal speed, the strain on my ocular power is exceeding its regeneration rate. I'll need to slow it down," Uchiha Yue noted to himself.

"And after all, this isn't a battle—there's no need to stretch a single second into 72 hours as exaggeratedly as Tsukuyomi does."

Feeling the strain on his ocular power, Uchiha Yue reduced the extreme acceleration of time, adjusting it to a more manageable sixtyfold speed. Only then did he nod in satisfaction, finally settling down.

At this moment, using his complete control over the illusory world, Uchiha Yue had essentially created his own version of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. With this, training in ninjutsu or any other discipline would never be an obstacle for him again!
