Five Months Of More Training

In a hospital room, a very "hefty" pregnant woman looked to be in distress. She was currently lying down on a bed and there were several nurses and doctors surrounding her. However, all these people were treated as air by the woman, and instead an equally hefty man — her husband — had the misfortune of taking the brunt of her assault.

The woman said "Choza! God damn it!" and then proceeded to weakly hit him repeatedly.

Choza was looked at his wife with concern; concern for her, and the children she would bear. He didn't mind her hitting him and just let her vent some of the pain she was undergoing, to comfort her.

Choza's wife kept yelling and cursing, but her strength was waning. Her voice was getting weaker and the power behind her punches felt less and less painful to Choza. He was getting very nervous and once Choza's wife couldn't even gather the strength to lift her arm, Choza asked the doctors "Is this normal? Can I do anything to help her?"

The chief doctor had been called to help deliver Choza's children, as he was a very important ninja. He had a very serious face at the moment and faced Choza, while saying "Right now, the delivery has reached a critical point and she needs a C-Section. I'm going to need you to leave the room immediately, as this kind of surgery needs a doctor's perfect concentration."

Internally, Choza was absolutely refusing to leave, but his reason controlled his actions and he immediately left the room. He cared for his wife and didn't want to leave her side in this moment of crisis, but if leaving the room would increase the success of the surgery by even a single percent, he would opt to leave immediately.

Choza stood outside his wife's room for several hours, until he heard the sounds of a baby crying. At that moment the tension that had been accumulating in his body was partially released, but he stayed outside the room. He wasn't a surgeon, but as a ninja, he knew that a surgery would not be over so quickly, and he stood outside the room for several more hours.

After five whole hours of waiting outside the room, the chief doctor came out. By the look on his face Choza couldn't tell if he came out to deliver good news or bad news.

The chief doctor looked at Choza and said "Your two boys made it out without a problem." Hearing this made Choza smile and half of his worries were gone. However, the good mood he had just entered was cut short when the doctor said "However, you wife… passed away during the labor..."

Choza froze, looking off into the distance through one of the windows in the hospital for a couple seconds, before saying "Can I see her and the kids now?" Even though he was currently in emotional turmoil, Choza knew better than to storm into a hospital room.

The chief doctor said "Of course."

Choza then entered the room and found his wife lying motionlessly on the hospital bed. Next to her where two healthy babies. The doctor then pointed to one of the kids and said "This one is the first born, and his brother over there is the second born."

Choza asked for some time to be alone and the chief complied. Choza sat next to his wife and kids for a couple of minutes, in those minutes of contemplation, he vowed to his deceased wife that he would raised his twin sons to the best of his abilities.

He picked up his first born son and named him Choji Akimichi, the second born was named Chojusen Akimichi. Choza called for the chief doctor and the two discussed how Choza should proceed.

It was decided that the funeral for Choza's wife would take place three days later, and one of the branch members of the Akimichi Clan would take care of Choza's children when he went out for missions.

Because of his family's situation, the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, gave Choza several weeks off duty. During these weeks off, Choza spent most of his time with his sons, but eventually he had to go back to work as a ninja.

All this time, Chojusen was practicing his Body Refining Skill, making absurd rates of progress. After he had been born, the increases to his Power and Chakra from Body Refining increased by a factor of ten.

When he turned two months old, Chojusen began to walk. Actually, since he had been training from the womb, Chojusen could have actually walked as soon as he was born, but he didn't do that as it would be too bizarre. It wasn't bizarre for him to be walking at two months old though, as he had personally seen other infants of that age, including his brother, walk at that age with no problems.

Through the vague memories still present in his mind about his past lifetime, Chojusen knew that infants shouldn't be so "sturdy," so he turned to the system for some answers. Miraculously, he wasn't shot down for not possessing enough strength, and the system actually gave him a solid answer. In the system's words [Ninjas develop much faster than regular "mortal" humans, because of their ability to use chakra.]

It took him another month to start talking and this time he wasn't just faking that he couldn't speak. In the world he was currently in, the people spoke Japanese, and Chojusen only knew English, so it really did take three months for him to actually learn the basics of a new language.

On the third month of being alive, another major event that took place in Chojusen's life was that his Energy Manipulation Skill and Body Refinement had improved for the 100th time and consequently ranked up.

Chojusen checked his status to see the changes to his stats and skills.

[Status~

Name: Chojusen Akimichi

Level: Almost Genin

Race: Full Human

Age: <1 Years

Power: 667

Energy: 1,989

Skills:

Body Refining (Rank B | 0/100): The user has managed to reduce the time it takes to complete a cycle to below a minute. Now energy automatically goes through the cycling process at a rate of one cycle every ten minutes, However if the user actively uses the technique the rate increases to two cycles per minute. As proficiency increase, so too does the rate of cycling for both automatic cycling and active cycling, as well as the increases to power and energy.

Energy/Chakra Manipulation (Rank B | 0/100): Energy/Chakra manipulation has been mastered at a basic level. Now the user has the ability to convert neutral energy into elemental energy. As proficiency increase, the loss of energy from executing energy-based techniques decreases. The conversion cost of neutral energy to elemental energy also decreases as proficiency increases.]

"System, what does the term elemental energy refer to?"

[In this world neutral energy refers to the regular chakra you are used to controlling. The people in this world use special techniques called "jutsu" that are primarily based on the five elements of fire, water, earth, wind, and lightning. However, with these five elements other elements can be created like ice or wood. Additionally, there are elements of space, time, yin, and yang.]

"I see… So I can use all of them?"

[Normally, that would be determined by your affinity with the elements. However, given that I exist, and you have B Rank Energy Manipulation, its safe to say that yes, you can use all of the elements.]

"Ok. How do I convert my neutral energy into say… space energy."

[Well, you could either try to connect yourself with the energies of space through the local environment, or you could just think about what you would like to accomplish with space energy, and eventually you will understand how to execute the action. In this world, jutsu are heavily based on visualization, so imagining what you want to do with elemental energy should be enough for you to do pretty much anything.]

"Thanks."

Chojusen was very interested in space energy. He first tried to connect with the space energy in the environment and had some success, evident only by the fact that his Energy Manipulation had increased three times after several hours of meditation. Seeing that this type of training was effective, Chojusen decided to keep meditating until he could actually feel space itself.

Five days later, when the Energy Manipulation Skill improved for the 15th time (15/100) Chojusen could finally feel space energy itself. Space was everywhere, but it wasn't visible, so out of all the energies he could have started sensing, Chojusen picked the third hardest; time energy being the second hardest to sense and chaos energy being the most difficult of all.

Now that Chojusen could sense space, he had a better idea of how to convert his neutral chakra in to space energy. He tried to visualize himself teleporting, but nothing happened. It was only when he took a different approach to his visualization that his efforts were rewarded.

Instead of imagining himself teleporting, Chojusen had to imagine himself switching places with space through the use of space energy for teleportation to actually occur. When he finally succeeded, he only teleported a couple millimeters, but that was enough for his Energy Manipulation skill to reach improve twice (17/100).

[Host has learned the skill: Teleportation

Teleportation (Rank C | 0/100): The user uses space energy to move by instantaneous displacement. The greater the proficiency, the larger the range. Current Range: 10 millimeters]

It was at this moment that Chojusen remembered he was just an infant. He couldn't continue trying to teleport himself as it would be too easy for him to be found out. So instead he switched to sensing other elements. As he did this, his Body Refining Skill was silently working its magic.

It took one month for Chojusen to be able to sense all of the elemental energies he could think of; the hardest one to sense was chaos energy, costing Chojusen over ten days just to sense. Chojusen found it weird that the system called it grandmist energy, but he didn't care and went on to start converting his neutral energy into element energies.

Converting energy became a very easy task after being able to sense the energy in the environment. Now that Chojusen could convert his neutral chakra into any type of energy, his Energy Manipulation Skill improved halfway up to the next rank up.

He decided against continuing to train his energy directly, as he could only start to improve it by using techniques. You can imagine how ridiculous it would seem if an infant could literally play with fire. Instead Chojuro focused on training his Body Refinement Skill. It was only after he began to use the skill that he realized how much progress his body had made with the automatic cycling.

Not only had all his base stats increase by at least ten folds, the skill itself had improved twenty times. At its current level the automatic cycling rate had risen to one cycle every eight minutes and when Chojusen actively used the skill, it would reach a baffling three cycles per minute.

These were the results of Chojusen training when he wasn't even that serious. He wasn't exactly a training maniac, it's just that he had nothing else to do. The only other activities he could engage in were playing with his twin brother, which he did very often, as it was very refreshing to play around after all the training he did.

Chojusen planned on continuing this routine until his skills ranked up once again. However, it seems his plan would have to take a detour. Not one month after Chojusen started training his Body Refinement Skill, the village he was in, faced an unprecedented calamity.
