"Mimi, resist!"
Watching Mimi, who had transformed into his true form, get trapped by a dozen of his chains, Shinji couldn't help but frown.
Hearing Shinji's words, Mimi seemed to be provoked and roared at Shinji, "Resist my ass! Let me go!"
Shinji was stunned, then closed his eyes and began to sense. His expression became strange. In his perception, Mimi's spiritual power was rapidly disappearing, and the culprit was the chains he had unleashed.
But he didn't have that intention, did he?
Could it be?
Shinji looked at the increasingly solid chains. Was it because Yang Chakra naturally countered Mimi?
Thinking of this, he waved his hand and released the chains, which then let go of Mimi.
Boom—
As he was released, Mimi fell heavily to the ground.
The entire training ground and its surroundings shook as if there was a minor earthquake, causing cracks in the ground.
Bang!
Mimi immediately reverted to his cat form, his originally plump body visibly thinner.
Shinji quickly walked over, picked up Mimi, who seemed to be in sage mode, and asked, "How do you feel?"
"Meow! I... I'm going to kill you!" Even though Mimi couldn't muster much strength, he still glared at Shinji fiercely.
Heaven knows how great his loss was!
If Shinji hadn't cut off the chains at the last moment, he felt he would have almost dropped out of the ranks of high-level daiyōkai. His essence was almost completely ruined.
Shinji awkwardly rubbed his nose. He really didn't do it on purpose.
Who knew this Fuinjutsu was so powerful?
Shinji looked at the completely disheveled Mimi, thought for a moment, and extended his hand.
A chain shot out, and Mimi almost exploded in a fit of rage.
As the chain touched Mimi again, a pure spiritual power was transferred back into Mimi's body.
After a long while, upon completing this operation, Shinji pinched his brow and stood up. Although it didn't consume much Chakra, he could clearly feel his mental energy rapidly depleting.
"How is it now?" Shinji asked Mimi, having returned the spiritual power to him.
"The amount is a bit less, but I feel my energy is much purer." Mimi had a bewildered expression.
It was good that his spiritual power could return, but it could also be refined in a roundabout way?
This back and forth saved him countless years of arduous training.
"Much purer..." Shinji murmured, stroking his chin.
The chains had no consciousness. It was merely the nature of the Fuinjutsu itself that caused it to absorb the power of the bound enemy.
Unless...
Shinji curiously tapped the chain, which had lost the spiritual power it had just absorbed. Now, the chain seemed to have lost its dazzling glow.
"Meow, Shinji! Absorb me again!" Mimi stared intently at Shinji's chain with eyes like he was looking at a treasure.
"Get lost!"
Shinji irritably took a few steps back. This dead cat now seemed to have lost its sanity, like it had sniffed catnip.
After avoiding Mimi, Shinji said with a slight guess, "I probably understand why your spiritual power became purer."
"What is it, meow?" Mimi hastily asked, after all, it was the realm of gods.
Anyone who can reach the daiyōkai level wants to take another step up, even a demigod is still a god.
"Life force." Shinji said.
"Life force?" Mimi repeated Shinji's words in confusion.
Shinji explained, "That's right, Yang Chakra itself contains powerful life force."
"And because of the structure of my chains' jutsu formula, the Yang Chakra is further refined."
Listening to the explanation, Mimi had a suspicious expression. "Isn't that overdrawing your life force?"
Shinji glanced at Mimi and said, "What are you thinking? I'm not an idiot."
This dead cat was dreaming.
However...
Shinji looked at his Yang Chakra (Extraordinary+).
Was it because of the system?
This Chakra wasn't trained by himself, but he knew that his life force and Yang Attribute hadn't weakened in the slightest. No, it was probably because of this 'Extraordinary' tag.
Shinji hadn't expected the system's tags to be so valuable.
And it even comes with an 'Eternal' attribute?
If only there was a reward for an immortal body, then it would definitely be worth it, though what he had now wasn't bad either.
However, guesses are guesses. Shinji didn't dare to exploit this 'bug' for Mimi. If it worked, it would be fine. But if it didn't turn out as he thought, wouldn't he be in trouble?
However, looking at the chains before him, Shinji couldn't help but wonder if the power absorbed by the chains could be converted into Chakra.
Although he had a lot of Chakra now, who would complain about having too much Chakra?
Shinji was still far from those true Chakra monsters. It was another day of envying Hashirama, that abnormal person.
'Must continue to work hard!' Shinji couldn't help but think that.
Upon reflection, he still seemed too weak.
If he had obtained this Fuinjutsu earlier, he could have sucked Eight-Tails dry like a dried squid.
"Alright, stop thinking about using me. You might as well just train honestly." Shinji waved his hand, shattering Mimi's fantasy.
Mimi could train with Chakra now, after all. Shinji wasn't sure why Mimi didn't practice.
Mimi refused with a look of disdain, "No, if my spiritual power were to be defiled by Chakra, it would definitely lead to a bad end."
Is this guy... showing off to him?
Shinji's lips twitched. This cat was getting more and more out of line.
"Alright, you go entertain yourself."
Shinji waved his hand and left the training ground.
Instead of fooling around with Mimi, he might as well go to a class and get some rewards, which would be more practical.
With the 'Eternal' conjecture, Shinji now liked the identity of a teacher even more.
"Meow, why do I feel like this guy is very happy?" Mimi looked at the departing Shinji with a puzzled expression, saying uncertainly.
"However, Chakra is indeed a direction for training. Putting everything else aside, what if I learned Shinji's chains from just now?"
Thinking of this, Mimi couldn't help but reveal a sly smile.
Training spiritual power with Chakra, I, Mimi, am a genius.
Shinji didn't know Mimi's thoughts, but even if he did, he would support them. After all, the entire Ninja World originated from a Chakra Fruit.
If Mimi could achieve that, wouldn't he indirectly become another Ten-Tails?
With light steps, Shinji returned to the Academy for class.
Originally, after the morning class, many students felt that they had gained a lot.
But what was the situation with their teacher now? Why did he seem even happier than in the morning?
Could it be that he found a girlfriend?
