Chapter 12 The Mystery of the Cheat Code, I'm a Handsome Guy
"Learn healing techniques?" Upon hearing Ishikawa's request, Nohara Rin's face stiffened, and she looked at Ishikawa with suspicion.
It's not that she didn't want to teach; Ishikawa understood her importance, so how could Nohara Rin, a ninja, not know Ishikawa's value?
Putting everything else aside, if Ishikawa had died unexpectedly before gathering the information she needed, how could she have changed her fate...?
Who would willingly choose to die when they can live?
What embarrassed Lin was that, given Ishikawa's clumsy chakra control skills, this was definitely a thankless task.
"Uh, what I mean is, let's start with the most basic theory lessons. Right now, I'll focus on improving my physical strength and chakra control techniques, as well as my theoretical knowledge." Seeing Rin's hesitant and suspicious look, Ishikawa quickly found a way to save face.
He was well aware of his own situation. Although he had learned to climb trees, he was still a long way from mastering medical ninjutsu...
Moreover, the Healing Palm Technique is not something that can be mastered overnight. Even Sakura, who has the protagonist's halo, spent a considerable amount of time learning it under the guidance of the medical genius Tsunade.
Thinking of this, Ishikawa immediately shifted his gaze to the inner wall door with burning eyes. "Miss Lin, let's call it a day! Time is short, I need to start my cultivation!"
After saying that, Ishikawa ignored Rin's reaction and strode to the other party's door, his right hand gripping the doorknob with trepidation yet unwavering determination.
"Click...click-click..."
In the blink of an eye, almost the instant Ishikawa touched the doorknob, a surge of violent energy, as powerful as thunder, once again overwhelmed him.
This tangy flavor is something you both love and hate...
Ishikawa only had time for that one thought to flash through his mind before he felt every cell in his body boil and collide, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.
"Is this your training?" Looking at Ishikawa, whose limbs were stiff and who was emitting white smoke, Nohara Rin was speechless as she met Ishikawa's eyes.
Despite this, Lin hesitated for half a second, then gritted her teeth, picked up the bedding, and walked towards the other door...
"Crackling and popping..."
Another familiar, strange noise erupted, and Nohara Rin's eyes bulged as if struck by lightning, causing her to faint.
Unlike Ishikawa, Nohara Rin felt much more comfortable lying down because there were bedding laid out beforehand...
[Damn, why didn't I think of that? No way, I'll have to use that trick later.] Ishikawa secretly complained, having witnessed everything out of the corner of his eye, and gained a new understanding of his own stubbornness.
Yeah, sleeping on the floor isn't comfortable enough. I definitely need to buy a sofa, a super soft, big sofa!!
[Wait, why did Nohara Rin faint?] Ishikawa, who was completely paralyzed and bored, looked at Nohara Rin, and suddenly his pupils contracted as if he had noticed something.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that last night was the same. He was paralyzed for at least five minutes both times he was shot, and he remained conscious both times.
As for Nohara Rin, she also fainted after being electrocuted last night, and the shock only lasted for about two minutes.
[Damn it, does this thing discriminate??] Thinking this, Ishikawa couldn't help but curse under his breath again, then turned his gaze to the clock on the wall and waited silently.
Time passed by, second by second, in agonizing agony...
About two minutes later, Nohara Rin, who had fainted, suddenly woke up with a soft groan and stood up stiffly and numbly.
"I feel like every cell in my body is full of energy, and my whole body feels as comfortable as if I've been soaking in a hot spring! My taijutsu moves seem to be more fluid, and I feel like I can extract more chakra..." Nohara Rin exclaimed with delight as she swung her fists and feet, feeling the changes within her body.
This kind of cheat-like cultivation was an experience she had never had before!
"Kakashi, Obito, Minato-sensei, I will definitely change the fate of our Minato Class, absolutely!!" Feeling the most tangible growth, Nohara Rin smiled and murmured with longing in her eyes.
While she smiled, Ishikawa, who remained motionless like a dead fish, was on the verge of tears. [Oh my god... Even extras and background characters have no rights! Even with cheat codes, they don't have the advantage of being natives. So embarrassing, so incredibly embarrassing...]
After mentally calculating, Ishikawa felt a lump in his throat, his eyes reddened, and he almost burst into tears!
If he needs five minutes to cool down, while Nohara Rin only needs two minutes, doesn't that mean Nohara Rin can touch him 30 times an hour, which is cheating?
He, on the other hand, could only touch her 12 times in the same amount of time!
Even disregarding the time it takes for him to adapt to his body, his opponent's growth rate is at least twice that of him, not to mention the inherent differences between them.
Damn it, is this his cheat code or Rin Nohara's cheat code...?
"Huh, what's wrong? Why haven't you recovered yet?" Just as Ishikawa was feeling so depressed that he felt like he had no will to live, Nohara Rin took two steps forward and startled him awake.
Ishikawa gave her a look that said, "How did I know?", then stared blankly at the ceiling, sulking in frustration...
It's awesome to have cheat codes! But if Nohara Rin's cheat codes are stronger than his, that's worse than killing Ishikawa!!
It had nothing to do with anything else; it was just that the pride etched into its very soul as a transmigrator wouldn't allow it.
"Wait, your face..." Suddenly, Nohara Rin exclaimed in surprise, her eyes fixed on Ishikawa's face as if she had noticed something.
"My face? What's so surprising about a nobody like me with such an ordinary face?" Ishikawa was completely bewildered, having no idea what Rin was surprised about.
As a background character, his face was not as well-developed as that of other important characters like Naruto and Sasuke; it was rather perfunctory.
Well, in this world of handsome men and beautiful women in the anime ninja realm, even Jiraiya is more handsome than him, isn't that infuriating...?
"Although it's subtle, your face seems more angular! This doorknob can change your appearance??" Nohara Rin exclaimed in surprise after taking another look, seemingly understanding Ishikawa's gaze.
"What?!" Upon hearing this, Ishikawa's pupils widened instantly, and he blurted out...
More angular? Could it be that the cells have lost too much collagen due to stress?? That shouldn't be! That energy should be reshaping the cells and strengthening the body!!
After another agonizing three minutes, Ishikawa gradually regained control, immediately got up, and staggered quickly into the bathroom.
"No, no way!!"
The moment he saw his face in the mirror, he involuntarily widened his eyes in disbelief.
In the mirror, the once ordinary face had subtly become thinner, with slight changes in the nose and the corners of the eyes...
At first glance, it still looks like Ishikawa's ordinary face, but upon closer inspection, there are subtle differences.
But that wasn't what surprised Ishikawa. What surprised him was that this face actually bore a resemblance to his own youthful self in his previous life...
Could it be that I'll see that handsome guy again in this lifetime?! What the hell is going on?!
Without the instruction manual for the cheat, Ishikawa gritted his teeth in hatred, but a bold guess was brewing in his mind...
The strange energy emanating from the doorknob may not only be tempering the body's cells, but also undergoing a qualitative transformation and fusion that penetrates deep into the soul.
This is also what makes him different from Nohara Rin...
