Chapter 6 - Learning New Jutsu.

After parting ways, Senba entered his home and headed toward the study, where the ninjutsu scrolls left by his parents were kept.

The study wasn't large, but it was very tidy. Two bookshelves stood against the wall, filled with various scrolls and books.

Senba walked to the bookshelf, his gaze sweeping over the scrolls. Both of his parents had been Jonin, leaving behind a considerable amount of ninjutsu.

Most of them were Fire Release, which was the Uchiha specialty.

He pulled out several scrolls and spread them across the desk. First were three C-rank techniques.

Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique — he had already learned it.

Fire Release: Phoenix Fire Technique — transforms chakra into multiple small fireballs that scatter and strike the target.

Fire Release: Dragon Flame Technique — condenses chakra into a straight line of fire, striking like a charging dragon.

Next were B-rank techniques.

Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Nail Crimson — an advanced version of the Phoenix Fire Technique, combining shuriken with flames to create burning projectile attacks.

Fire Release: Great Dragon Flame Technique — a stronger version of the Dragon Flame Technique, forming multiple fire dragons.

Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation — turns chakra into a massive sea of flames with a wide range. Though classified as B-rank, in Madara's hands it reached near S-rank power, requiring multiple shinobi working together to block it.

Senba looked at the scrolls and narrowed his eyes slightly. The Uchiha clan's Fire Release really was the best in Konoha.

He reorganized the scrolls, set them aside, and moved on.

Next were scrolls for Lightning, Earth, Wind, and Water Release. There weren't many, all C-rank or B-rank. He skimmed through them and put them away.

Finally, ten scrolls remained on the desk.

Senba picked up the first one. It contained the Shadow Clone Technique.

This was one of his goals. This Jutsu could be considered a bug for those who have a vast amount of Chakra.

Unlike the basic clone technique, shadow clones were physical, with independent minds and chakra.

It wasn't easy to learn and required at least Chunin-level chakra and a certain level of chakra control, which he had already reached.

He set it down and picked up two more scrolls, both related to Uchiha swordsmanship.

Uchiha Style: Wild Wind Slash — an A-rank nin-taijutsu technique that focuses on drawing the blade and striking at extreme speed.

Uchiha Style: Halo Dance — a rapid multi-slash technique that, combined with the Sharingan's perception, forms an almost airtight web of strikes.

Senba frowned slightly.

Learning Uchiha swordsmanship required a proper ninja sword.

After his parents died, their bodies had been returned, but their swords had remained in the Hidden Sand Village. Most likely taken as war trophies by the future Third Kazekage.

Right now, he didn't even have a suitable weapon.

He set the three scrolls aside for later. No point in biting off more than he could chew.

Senba opened another scroll, which contained introductory medical ninjutsu.

Medical techniques were notoriously difficult, requiring extremely precise chakra control. But with the system's enhancement, he already met the requirements.

The remaining five were genjutsu.

D-rank: Hell Viewing Technique — forces the target to see the most terrifying image in their mind.

C-rank: Illusion Clone Technique—creates illusionary duplicates to confuse the opponent.

B-rank: Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death — traps the target in an illusion where they are bound by trees, unable to move.

B-rank: Sharingan Genjutsu — genjutsu cast through the Sharingan, adaptable depending on the situation.

B-rank: Demonic Illusion: Nail Binding Technique — makes the target feel as if they are pinned down by metal spikes, completely immobilized.

One D-rank genjutsu, one C-rank genjutsu, three B-rank genjutsu, plus one C-rank medical technique and one B-rank Shadow Clone technique.

That was his training plan for the near future.

Senba stood up for a moment and formed hand seals.

Chakra surged through his body, gathering and shaping under precise control.

"Poof!"

With a burst of white smoke, another Uchiha Senba appeared beside him, identical in every detail, even down to his expression.

Senba glanced at the clone and gave a small nod. His max-level chakra control allowed him to perform a B-rank technique on the first try.

"You gave me half your chakra, so you better not create another one," the clone said. "It would be bad with your current reserves."

Senba nodded. His chakra capacity was B-rank. Even after splitting it, the original body still had around C+, far above a normal genin, but not enough to create another clone.

He returned the Shadow Clone scroll to the shelf and tossed the clone the Hell Viewing Technique and Healing Technique scrolls.

"Learn these tonight."

The clone raised an eyebrow. "Two in one night?"

"We have the same chakra, so it shouldn't be difficult for you," Senba said calmly.

"That sounds like worker abuse." The clone clicked his tongue but still walked off to a corner and opened the scrolls.

Senba ignored him and continued organizing the bookshelf, returning the remaining scrolls one by one.
