Time waits for no one. It flows like an unrelenting river.
And with the blink of an eye, two weeks passed by.
In these two weeks, Seimei trained diligently and polished his skills further, including the newly learned secret Taijutsu technique—Chakra Enhanced Strength.
Sharingan helped him analyze and copy the technique, and the system helped him level up his Sharingan's proficiency.
When Chakra Enhanced Strength reached Lv.1, Seimei could already perform it flawlessly.
And he did it within 1 day.
Although his proficiency wasn't high enough to use it in actual combat, it still stunned Tobirama, his father.
It was normal.
After all, Sharingan just helped him copy the skill.
It didn't mean he could perform it flawlessly immediately.
Tobirama thought it would take Seimei at least 1 week of diligent training under his supervision before he could use Chakra Enhanced Strength safely.
But Seimei did it in one day.
To Seimei, it wasn't surprising at all.
With his system, as long as he could understand a skill and use it successfully once, his system would register it.
However, he had Sharingan. So, he directly copied the technique, and the system recognized it.
What could he say? Being able to cheat felt so good.
Since the system recognized the technique, all Seimei had to do was keep practicing it.
Tobirama's guidance also helped. It made leveling up the technique twice as efficient, saving Seimei a lot of time.
Of course, Tobirama didn't know that his son was cheating.
So, he could only gawk and praise Seimei.
And now, after two weeks of training, the proficiency of the technique had finally reached Lv.3.

At the Senju Clan Private Training Ground…
"Haa!"
Boooom~
The air exploded and shockwaves sprang forward as Seimei threw a punch in the air and detonated the chakra he gathered in his arm through his fist.
He was clearly practicing Chakra Enhanced Strength.
However, he didn't stop after throwing just one punch.
Boom~ Boom~ Burst~ Boom~
He was relentless.
He kept throwing punches, kicks, elbow strikes, and knees in the air.
He detonated chakra from his fists, elbows, feet, and knees with each strike, making the air rumble. The intense shockwave generated from the chakra detonation spread all around him.
Then he suddenly leaned his body forward toward a thick, towering tree 20 meters away.
He smashed his left foot on the ground, activated Chakra Enhanced Strength once again, and detonated the chakra gathered in his left leg through the foot as soon as it made contact with the ground.
Crack~ Boooooom!
The ground formed spider-web-like cracks around him from the raw impact of the detonating chakra.
At the next moment, Seimei's figure blurred as he rocketed toward the tree in the distance.
He arrived right in front of the tree in a flash and pulled his right hand back.
He gathered as much chakra as he could in the tenth of a second, punched the tree, and detonated the chakra he collected in his right hand the moment his fist hit the tree.
BOOOOM!
The trunk of the tree was immediately reduced to splinters from the sheer force of his attack.
The thick, 12-meter-tall tree lost its support, leaned forward, and then crashed to the ground with a thunderous sound.
Thud~ Crack~ BOOOOOOOOM!!!!
Watching the destruction he caused with his bare hands, Seimei inhaled a mouthful of air before exhaling slowly.
Before transmigration, he wouldn't have dared to dream of smashing a tree weighing several tons to the ground with his bare hands.
He would have never imagined controlling the natural elements like fire, wind, and water with nothing but a thought and a few gestures.
This feeling—it was exhilarating.
All of this was now possible because of the supernatural energy—chakra.
The people of this world who had taken chakra and its mystical powers for granted would never understand the thrill Seimei felt.
However, this world was still a cruel and dangerous place, where weakness was a cardinal sin.
So, he had to grow strong.
Strong enough to protect everyone he loves.
Strong enough to transcend the limits of this world.
Strong enough to explore the universe freely and safely, just like the members of the Otsutsuki clan.
He would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
To reach that level, he must keep grinding.
He could not stop.
In front of absolute strength, nothing else matters.
That's why he would fully abuse his system and completely exploit his cheat-like Otsutsuki lineage.
So that one day, even if some horned alien bastard barged into his home or blocked his path, he could smash them to the ground mercilessly.
Seimei reigned in his wild thoughts, opened his system panel, and focused on this newly learned secret Taijutsu technique.
[Chakra Enhanced Strength Lv.3 (292 /1,000)]
For now, that was enough.
Rest was important too.
After all, he had a Chakra Beast to catch tomorrow.
----
The Same Day at 8:35 PM
After having dinner and a relaxed bath, Seimei walked into his room and sat at his table.
He opened one of the drawers attached to the table and pulled out a mission scroll.
This mission scroll contained the details of the Chakra Beast extermination mission, including detailed info on the beast he was about to face tomorrow.
He had already finished reading the scroll.
However, he decided to give it another look, focusing especially on the Chakra Beast information.
[Name: Rock Golem
Danger Rating: B-
Innate Skills: Rock Fist, Rock Wall, Rock Bullet, Ground Slide, Tough Skin (Passive), Rock Lance
Info: A tough bipedal Chakra Beast that has an innately superior affinity toward the Earth Release nature transformation.
Its outer shell is as tough as a rock, rendering most edged weapon assaults powerless.
Although it's relatively slow compared to other Chakra Beasts of the same rank, it can still use Ground Slide to cover up to 30 meters in a straight line quickly.
Its physical strength is phenomenal. Do not engage with it in a physical brawl unless you have a destructive Taijutsu or Nin-taijutsu technique.
It can also use up to 6-8 Rock Lances at once as a wide-area long-range projectile attack.
Meanwhile, it uses Rock Bullet as its long-range single-target attack.
To eliminate it, you must destroy the Golem Core located at the left side of its chest.
Blunt force and piercing attacks are the best ways to deal with it.
Please note that the Golem Core of the Rock Golem is not a life chakra core usually found in the A-rank or above Chakra Beasts. The Golem Core must be destroyed to eliminate the Rock Golem permanently. Otherwise, a new Golem will form around the core within a few hours.]
Seimei's eyes couldn't help but twitch at the description of the Chakra Beast.
This alternative Naruto world was already strange.
And now, he was reading about a Chakra Beast that felt less like a Chakra Beast and more like a magical construct from some dungeon in a sword and magic fantasy world.
He really wanted to shout that the script was wrong.
But what could he do?
Nothing.
So, he could only go and dismantle this golem tomorrow.
Anyway, overthinking was harmful to his mental health. He would just go with the flow for now.
Thinking this far, he closed the scroll, put it away, and lay down on the bed.
After getting into a comfortable position, he slowly closed his eyes.
He could always think about the Chakra Beast tomorrow.
Right now, it was time to have some quality sleep.
