On Moon Island.
Seimei's figure appeared out of nowhere.
Feeling the sharp drop in his chakra, he frowned slightly before quickly drawing on the chakra stored in the interdimensional space at his forehead to replenish it.
Once that was done, he opened his ninja pouch and pulled out a few enhanced soldier pills, popping them into his mouth.
He'd left in such a hurry that he hadn't even eaten breakfast. Now that his task was complete, filling his stomach came first.
Crunch, crunch.
He chewed and swallowed the soldier pills.
Soon, a satisfying fullness spread from his stomach.
"Burp~"
Seimei let out a contented belch.
Then, as planned, he began his training for the day.
And that training stretched on for over two days.
During that time, neither the shadow clone stationed in Konoha nor the wooden clone in the Hidden Stone Village sent any updates.
This meant the situation was still stable.
With that reassurance, Seimei fully committed to his training.
In this focused state, his efficiency was remarkable. By the third day, he had completely adapted to the harsh environment of the volcano's first chamber.
This was a day earlier than he'd expected.
Midday on the third day.
Inside the volcano.
In the first chamber.
On the platform extending over the river of lava, Seimei stood calmly, his body unprotected.
The air was filled with scorching heat, high pressure, and toxic gases.
Though his face was pale and his brows occasionally furrowed as if enduring some pain, overall, he held his ground purely with his physical strength.
This meant he had adapted to the environment here.
Continuing to train in this chamber would still enhance his physical conditioning, but the gains would be far less significant than before.
In fact, as he grew more accustomed to the surroundings, the benefits would diminish further.
This was something he absolutely couldn't accept.
Fortunately, he was prepared for this and had a plan in place.
With a thought, Seimei activated his Byakugan and looked downward.
His gaze pierced through the lava below and the rock layers supporting it, revealing the second chamber.
The environment there was similar but far harsher—hotter air, greater pressure, and a higher concentration of toxic gases.
Training there would undoubtedly accelerate his physical strengthening.
That was his next goal.
But before heading down, he needed to prepare.
With that in mind, Seimei used the "Flying Thunder God Technique" to return to the island's surface.
Glancing at the group of shadow clones training in the distance, he didn't hesitate and immediately dispelled the "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique."
Instantly, all the shadow clones dissolved, and a flood of memories surged into his mind.
Seimei closed his eyes, carefully reviewing and absorbing the training experiences contained within.
Ten minutes later, he opened his eyes again.
He had fully integrated the training experience accumulated by the shadow clones.
With everything ready, Seimei wasted no time. With a few quick movements, he reached the edge of the island.
Activating his Byakugan, he carefully scanned the area, chose a spot, and dove into the sea with a flip.
Time ticked by.
Soon, he descended to about seven hundred meters below the surface.
Facing the volcanic rock wall, Seimei repeated his previous method, forming hand signs to use the "Earth Release: Earth Vein Dragon Technique," merging himself into the rock.
With the Byakugan's x-ray vision, he navigated around difficult terrain and smoothly reached his destination—the second chamber.
The moment he entered, an intense sense of danger hit him.
If his body hadn't already adapted to the first chamber's environment, he might've been in serious trouble the instant he arrived.
Even so, he couldn't hold out for long.
Without hesitation, Seimei activated the "Lightning Release Chakra Mode."
Crackle!
A burst of thunderous noise echoed.
A thin layer of lightning chakra formed a glowing membrane over his body, shielding him from the harsh environment.
Instantly, Seimei felt much more comfortable.
Only then did he take a moment to observe his surroundings.
Up until now, he'd relied on his Byakugan.
But what the Byakugan saw was still different from what the naked eye perceived.
As a normal person, he preferred his natural vision.
The space here was slightly larger than the first chamber, and the lava flowing below was more active.
Every so often, a bubble would rise from the lava, burst with a pop, and release a puff of toxic gas, making the environment even harsher.
Observing it all, Seimei nodded in satisfaction.
"Perfect. This is my new training ground."
Muttering to himself, he shifted his focus to setting up for training.
First, he needed a place to stand.
Unlike the first chamber, which had a convenient platform protruding from the rock wall, the second chamber's walls were bare, offering no suitable foothold.
Right now, he was only standing on the cave wall by adhering chakra to his feet.
But this wasn't a problem for him.
Seimei scanned the area, his gaze settling on the spot beneath his feet.
He then channeled his chakra, converting it into Lava Release chakra and directing it through his feet into the cave wall.
The wall, already scorched by the lava below, began to melt instantly.
Under his control, the molten rock flowed across the cavern, stretching to the opposite wall and fusing with it.
Next, Seimei shaped it, forming a stone bridge over a meter wide.
But he wasn't done.
He stepped along the cave wall, moving about a quarter of the way around, to a point perpendicular to the first bridge. Using the same method, he created another stone bridge.
He made this second bridge intersect with the first at its midpoint.
Together, the two bridges formed a cross shape in the cavern, creating a square platform at their intersection.
Seimei walked along the bridge to the center of the "cross."
Looking at the platform, which was just over a square meter, he frowned slightly. Once again, he used his Lava Release to expand it.
In the end, he turned it into a circular platform about three meters in diameter.
This way, he wouldn't have to worry about falling while training.
"Not bad!"
Satisfied with his work, Seimei nodded.
He then crouched down and etched a Flying Thunder God seal onto the platform.
Now, he could return here easily without all the hassle.
With his thoughts settled, Seimei prepared to test how this new environment would affect his physical training.
But just as he was about to start, he realized he hadn't created any shadow clones yet.
So, he returned to the surface, performed the "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique," and then came back.
Finally, he began his new round of training.
