Chapter 6: Extracting Chakra

A few days passed, and Natsuwari felt that although the physical fatigue had disappeared, the aftereffects hadn't completely dissipated. When this feeling disappeared would roughly indicate the interval period.

However, this was only in the Naruto world. Although ordinary people in this world couldn't compare to those with special bloodlines, their bodies were still much better than in his past life. Otherwise, if Natsuwari had done this in his past life, he would have probably been crippled.

No, in his past life, without the strong spiritual power as a prerequisite, he probably wouldn't have been able to reach this level. After all, Natsuwari was self-aware; his willpower wasn't that strong.

In the past few days, nothing special happened at school. Iruka led the class in training and started teaching about chakra.

Natsuwari felt this was a bit of a waste of time, as he had already learned this knowledge on his own, and the training intensity couldn't keep up with the intensity he had set for himself.

However, it was probably because school had just started, so the teacher was mainly teaching basic training movements. Later, they would probably be able to train freely.

Now that Natsuwari had finished studying the contents of the book, he was about to try extracting chakra. Since it was his first time, he chose a time when Sana was home and asked her to watch over him.

Although extracting chakra generally wasn't dangerous, who knew if there would be any accidents the first time?

"Mom, I'm going to start." Natsuwari sat cross-legged on the bed. Although there was no specific posture required for extracting chakra, he had to assume a normal posture when being watched.

"Okay, don't worry. I remember extracting chakra isn't dangerous." Sana encouraged Natsuwari.

"I know." Natsuwari nodded. This was just to be careful. What if he fainted?

Then, Natsuwari started to sense his physical energy according to the knowledge taught in the book. In fact, he had tried to sense it before, and it was easy for him. Now, it was even more familiar.

However, he had sensed it before but hadn't tried to extract it. Now that Sana was watching, he had insurance in case of accidents, so Natsuwari didn't hesitate anymore. He combined his spirit with his physical energy and started to extract chakra.

No accidents happened, and Natsuwari quickly succeeded in extracting it. Then, he controlled the extracted chakra to emerge in his hand. The familiar blue energy made Natsuwari a little dazed.

"You succeeded on your first try! Little Natsuwari is really amazing!" Sana was also a little surprised. Although extracting chakra wasn't dangerous, it didn't mean you could succeed on the first try. Did this mean that little Natsuwari had great talent? Sana was very happy thinking about it.

She decided that to celebrate little Natsuwari's talent, she would go ask her teacher to help exchange for the Shadow Clone Jutsu after work tomorrow and give Natsuwari a surprise.

"Well, it's okay." Natsuwari didn't expect it to go so smoothly. It was probably related to his spiritual power? But in any case, his talent should be decent. Next, it depended on his talent in ninjutsu.

He just didn't know how much chakra he currently had. He felt it should be pretty good, but without a specific comparison, he didn't know the exact level.

As Natsuwari was thinking, he suddenly felt a pair of hands on his face and saw his mother pinching his cheeks, saying, "You've successfully extracted chakra, little Natsuwari should be happier. Smile~"

In the end, under Sana's "evil" hands, Natsuwari could only force a smile. Although it was a bit fake, Sana was satisfied. "That's right. Why do you always have a stern face at such a young age?"

Natsuwari was a little helpless. He wasn't expressionless, he was just thinking.

Finally, Natsuwari successfully escaped from Sana's "evil" hands and returned to his room to continue extracting chakra. Although the extracted chakra was useless, he was doing it to familiarize himself with the extraction process.

This extraction process had to be familiarized to the point where he didn't need to deliberately extract it, reaching the point of being able to use it whenever he wanted. As for what to do with the extracted chakra...

Natsuwari didn't know any ninjutsu yet, but it felt like a waste to just waste it like this. So, should he use it to practice control? Tree climbing or wall climbing?

But thinking that his mother next door was probably going to rest, the sound of falling from wall climbing would be quite loud, and it wouldn't be good to disturb her rest, so he passed on that.

Besides that, chakra shape and nature transformation?

Nature transformation... Natsuwari didn't even know what his chakra nature was yet, so he could only practice shape transformation?

But rather than shape transformation, Natsuwari decided to control the chakra to form shapes he imagined, starting with the simplest sphere.

Natsuwari began to try releasing the extracted chakra through his hand, and he clearly felt that the moment the chakra left his body, it became uncontrollable and quickly dissipated into the air.

Natsuwari frowned but didn't give up. Who could succeed on the first try?

Just like that, he extracted, practiced, extracted, and practiced again. Soon, Natsuwari's chakra was depleted. He felt that if he extracted with all his might, he could probably extract it all at once, as the amount of extraction was related to the spirit, and his spirit happened to be very strong.

However, this also proved in reverse that Natsuwari's chakra amount, at least compared to his spiritual power, was not up to par.

Furthermore, there was a slight improvement in his shape transformation practice. At least after the chakra left his body, Natsuwari could still sense a slight connection, but it was very difficult to control it with this slight connection.

Having a connection and feeling this connection, Natsuwari felt good. As long as he strengthened this connection later, he would have taken the first step.

The depletion of chakra meant that today's work was done and he could rest.

There was something more important tomorrow, which was to go find Iruka. First, he wanted to ask about his current chakra level and get a standard value. Second, Natsuwari wanted to try and see if he could get the Three Body Techniques in advance. He believed that his current chakra level had already surpassed the level required to practice the Three Body Techniques, so as long as he showed his level, the probability of getting the Three Body Techniques from Iruka was not small.

If that didn't work, he could get the seal for the Three Body Techniques from his mother and then ask Iruka-sensei for guidance on how to use it.

Thinking about tomorrow's plan, Natsuwari quietly drifted off to sleep.

The next day, after school, Natsuwari found Iruka.

"Is there something you need, Natsuwari?" Iruka looked at Natsuwari, a little puzzled.

"Iruka-sensei, I've already learned how to extract chakra through the textbook and would like to ask you about my current chakra level."

"Hmm? Have you already finished studying it yourself?" Iruka was a little surprised. In order to be a good teacher, he naturally understood his students' situations, including Natsuwari's.

It could be said that although Natsuwari's mother used to be a Genin, she probably didn't have the ability to teach, meaning she knew how to do it but not why.

This meant that Natsuwari must have finished studying the textbook and completed the extraction in just a few days.

Although Iruka didn't know why Natsuwari wanted to know his chakra level, as a teacher, he definitely liked excellent and hardworking students, so he directly agreed.

"Of course."
