Daichi woke up precisely at 4 am. He was used to waking up so early and he began his morning workouts. Daichi completed them and meditated for a couple hours. He had several thoughts running through his mind.
'I have a couple days off… So should I start lightning nature training today or tomorrow?.. Hmm… I'll begin on that tomorrow. Before I start that training I need to check my skill list and see what level all of them are at and see if any of them needs leveling up.'
Daichi opened his skill list and went through each skill. As he went down the list his eyes reached a certain skill he hadn't truly started on yet.
[Creation - Active(LV.3): This skill is used for creating an item. As the skill increases, items with greater quality can be created. This skill can be used to even create legendary and Mythical items. But blueprints are required for such creations. The items are divided into 5 grades. Common, Rare, Unique, Legendary and Mythical.]
[Note: The chakra cost of the skill, depends on the chakra supplied.]
[Effects: ]
[16.5% Chance when creating Common grade items.]
[ 1% Chance when creating Rare grade items. ]
[ 0% Chance when creating Unique grade items.]
[ 0% Chance when creating Legendary grade items. ]
[ 0% Chance when creating Mythical grade items.]
'This is an extremely important skill but I haven't had the time to use it. But it still managed to reach level 3…'
The answer quickly came to him. 'It's most likely my painting skill. I created several artworks and it's a crafting skill… So it is possible it will have an effect on this skill…'
Daichi got up and went for a walk around the capital. He had several ideas in mind but he wasn't sure if he should follow through with them.
'The gamer ability is truly an OP ability. I could learn a lot of non shinobi related stuff in a short amount of time… But should I do it or just focus on the chakra and ninja skill aspects…'
As Daichi walked through the streets he came near a sculpture shop.
'Terra crafts house'. It was the name of the shop. Daichi saw several sculptors working on various materials.
At that moment a thought went through Daichi. 'I can learn important skills like sculpting and blacksmithing and it would definitely increase my creation skill level. Now that I think about it, I'll be able to create different weapons and armor as well if I can level it up to a high degree… And these are important life skills I'll need in the future… So it's not a bad thing to learn them.'
Daichi made a decision and entered the shop. He quickly found the owner of the place. Daichi asked the man if he could just observe the workers that were in the shop for the day. At first the man refused but Daichi was able to change his decision with the promise of 20000 Ryo.
The man's eyes went to the money in Daichi's hand and he changed his mind. "You only want to see how they work for the day, right…?"
Daichi nodded his head. "Yes. Just for today and I'll only be observing them. I promise I won't disturb them from their work."
"Fine." The head sculptor Morman finally agreed. Daichi gave him the money and created two clones. Each clone along with himself picked the three most talented workers in the place and started observing them.
Daichi and his clones carefully memorized everything the workers did. From the way they use the tools to the movements of their wrists, hands and body. Daichi had the ability to memorize everything and it greatly helped him.
By the time evening came Daichi had a solid understanding of the sculpting arts. He knew what tools to use and how to use them. He bought a set of carving knives and tools and a couple blocks of wood. He headed straight home and began his work.
Daichi had an image in mind and he began carving the wood in front of him. He worked slowly and methodically. He carved the wood away bit by bit and a short while later the image he had in his mind began to appear in it.
The image of a man started to appear and with each minute and with more delicate details added the identity of the man became clearer.
Kensei Yasaji. Yes. Daichi was creating a small sculpture of his grandfather. After an hour the work was done. The sculpture had a great resemblance to the old man. The details Daichi added to it were so accurate that one might think it was a miniature Kensei.
At that moment Daichi heard the system message sound.
[A new skill is created with a specific action.]
[By carving the wood and creating a good sculpture, the skill 'Sculpting' has been created.]
[Sculpting - Passive(LV.01): A production skill that helps the user create sculptures of various shapes, sizes and designs. This skill helps the user in carving or engraving on various types of materials. Although this is limited at the moment due to the low level. Artworks created in the future that have high artistic value can be worth a fortune. Sculptures created at higher levels can be imbued with some effects. This skill is divided into 4 grades. Common - Great - Epic - Masterpiece. Mastering this skill can increase the level of other crafting skills.]
Current grade: Common.
[Effects: ]
[5% Increase in visual appeal of the sculpture.]
[5% Increase of accuracy when sculpting.]
[1% Chance of engraving unique patterns when sculpting. ]
[Increase reputation throughout the land.]
"Yes!" Daichi had a wide smile. 'I knew it. I knew I would get the necessary skill if I made a good sculpture.'
Daichi looked at the small statue in his hand. 'This will make an excellent gift for the old man.'
Daichi placed the statue in a safe place and went over the new sculpting skill. 'I can make a lot of money with this skill… And the ability to add effects to my works… That'll definitely come in handy… This is definitely an excellent skill.'
At that moment another notification appeared.
[Skill Creation's level has risen by one.]
'Just as I suspected. Creation is an ultimate crafting skill which can be used to make legendary or mythical items like the blades of the seven swordsmen of the mist or even something like Itachi's spirit weapons… I need to level up the creation skill fast and the best way to do it is to level up the production skills like painting and sculpting. I also need to learn blacksmithing at a later date… With that skill I'll be able to create Armor and weapons that this world has never seen before…'
A grin formed on Daichi's face as he thought of the different possibilities. 'When the time comes my name will be known to everyone. They will know me as not just the greatest ninja but a man of many talents… I will spread my name throughout the world.'
Daichi decided to add sculpting and painting to his training. He would create three or four sculptures and artworks each week and improve the level of the related skills and the creation skill.
'With each day I'm adding more and more things to my 'to do' list. Leveling up, Medical ninjutsu training, chakra training, academy assignments, dungeons and now sculpting… But even though there are a lot of things I have to do, I don't feel overwhelmed at all… All I'm feeling is excitement…'
With a wide smile and a satisfying day Daichi went to sleep. The next day after his morning routine Daichi was in his backyard sitting under a tree. He picked up a leaf and held it between his fingers.
'I shouldn't delay it any longer. It's time to train the change in chakra nature for lightning.'
Daichi remembered the information on the Lightning training methods from Kensei's books.
'For the lightning nature I need to separate the chakra into many pieces and make the chakra bounce and hit each other. This will generate spark and heat and then I have to rejoin the chakra and concentrate it on the leaf.'
Daichi held the leaf between his palms and began the 4th chakra nature training.
Daichi closed his eyes and focused. 'Concentrate.'
With each chakra control technique and chakra nature mastered, Daichi's Chakra Affinity and Chakra Manipulation skills have also leveled up. This in turn made it easier for him to utilize his chakra with each passing day.
Daichi gathered his chakra and was able to quickly split it into many pieces. He started bouncing the tiny pieces of energy and made them hit against each other. Daichi visualized and concentrated on how his chakra felt when using lightning jutsu and focused on it.
It was a success. After a minute Daichi rejoined his chakra and poured it to the leaf. The sound of the system alerted him to the outcome of his experiment.
"Ding."
[A new skill is created with a specific action.]
[Lightning - Leaf scorching technique - (Active/Passive)(LV. 1): A lightning chakra affinity training skill obtained through continuously focusing chakra to a leaf and scorching it. A basic technique to help the user increase the strength of their lightning chakra nature.]
[Note: Increasing the level of this skill will increase the level of the skill 'Lightning Affinity.']
[Effects:]
[1% increase in Lightning Chakra control. ]
[CP cost : 52/sec.]
'Leaf scorching technique, huh! Well… The name is apt I suppose.'
Daichi looked at the leaf between his palms and saw that a small portion of it was scorched black.
'It's a bit different from fire. With fire the leaf would burn and the burned portion would immediately crumble to ash but now when using lightning, the portion of the leaf is scorched black. Almost charred….'
Daichi examined the leaf with a critical eye.
'An incomplete combustion due to being subjected to high heat. The heat removed the hydrogen and oxygen and now the only thing remaining in the charred portions are primarily made of carbons.'
Daichi thought about the applications of the lightning chakra nature. Just as water can be boiled and turned to vapor or cooled and turned to ice, lightning can be used in various ways.
'Right now I need to master the 5 different natures. Then I'll see if I can start on creating Ninjutsu and combine different natures…'
Daichi created 10 clones and 2 of them went to meditate while the others picked up some leaves. 'If I want to stand above the rest then I need to fight on a higher level. Create techniques that they never even thought of…'
Daichi then opened his skill list and checked the Lightning Affinity skill.
[Lightning affinity - (Active/Passive)(LV.20): Lightning Release is one of the five basic nature transformations. It is commonly affiliated with Snake hand-seal. Once this skill crosses Level 85 the user can manipulate all forms of electricity dwelling in all matter known as Charged Particles. This will boost the user's lightning powers several times. Once this skill crosses Level 90, the user can combine it with other nature affinities which have also crossed Level 90.]
[Effects: ]
[40% Increase in Lightning attack jutsu.]
[40% Increase in Lightning defense jutsu.]
[18% Increase in success when creating Lightning style jutsu.]
[10% Decrease in Chakra cost when using Lightning style jutsu.]
'Level 20 huh. It's low but that will increase to at least level 75 by the time I'm done with the first two steps.'
And thus Daichi began his change in chakra nature training of the year. He and his clones spent every second of the day on nothing but training and by midnight he was able to level up the Leaf scorching technique to 16.
Daichi freshened up, ate some food and went to bed. As he laid there he thought about his plan for the year.
'I will have to resume my medical training tomorrow so I won't be able to make such fast progress on chakra training. But still… Leaving 2 clones for training and one for meditation and gathering chakra each day won't be a problem… I'll also have to finish the dungeon run quickly.'
He thought about the many things he had to accomplish this year. With several plans for the future in mind, Daichi quickly went to sleep.
