He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 6 The Three Bodies Technique

Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai.

Looking at Li Chuan, who could perfectly use all twelve ninja seals after being taught only once, Ji Lu couldn't help but mutter:

"You really are a genius at being a ninja!"

While it's genius that someone can master chakra refining techniques in just one night, it's not unheard of; many geniuses with special bloodlines and bodies can do it.

But he had never seen anyone memorize all twelve seals after being taught only once and be able to execute them flawlessly.

At this moment, Di Lu's heart wavered slightly.

He originally thought that Prince Li Chuan was just a passing fancy, and that he would probably go back after a while because he felt too tired from cultivation.

Even though Li Chuan sent all the servants back, they have performed quite well these past two days. Because of Li Chuan's age, he also felt that Li Chuan would have little chance of achieving anything in the future.

However, the talent Li Chuan is currently displaying makes him feel that if Li Chuan can endure hardship, there is indeed a sliver of hope.

After all, chakra only accounts for a part of a ninja's strength. Compared to a normal ninja, Li Chuan did have more than ten years less of training, but as long as he worked hard enough, it was not impossible for him to catch up.

Let's take another look!

Therefore, he became more attentive in his teaching.

"Since you've learned hand seals so quickly, I'll now teach you your first ninjutsu—the Transformation Technique."

The Transformation Technique only requires forming one hand seal, but simply forming the seal correctly is not enough to successfully unleash the ninjutsu. To successfully perform the Transformation Technique, we also need to control chakra. The flow of chakra through the meridians is…

"not yet!"

Following Jiraiya's instructions, Li Chuan formed hand seals and began to mobilize the chakra within his body.

His figure gradually blurred, as if trying to change, but returned to normal in just a second.

Meanwhile, Di Lu, who had been intently watching Li Chuan's transformation technique, inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Chuan's transformation technique had failed.

"It's alright. Learning ninjutsu requires a lot of practice. The more you practice, the more likely you are to succeed. It's normal to fail the first time."

If Li Chuan could learn ninjutsu so easily, he would seriously doubt whether Li Chuan had already learned ninjutsu before becoming an apprentice.

Faced with Di Lu's comforting words, Li Chuan remained calm, fully aware of his own situation.

He wasn't some once-in-a-millennium ninja genius; the reason he could quickly master chakra refining techniques and hand seals was because he had decades of martial arts training.

The application of ninjutsu mainly involves the control of chakra, and he had never been exposed to energy control before.

A martial artist focuses on the control of the body's muscles, and doesn't have the so-called internal energy shown on TV. In this respect, he is no different from an ordinary beginner in ninjutsu.

If we had to pinpoint his advantage in learning ninjutsu, it would probably be his patience and willpower to train relentlessly through the sweltering summer and freezing winter.

His powerful physique and mental strength allow him to extract more chakra than the average person and practice ninjutsu more frequently.

At the same time, having already acquired a wealth of combat skills, he can spend more time learning ninjutsu.

One month later, in the training room of the Land of Fire.

"Transform!"

Li Chuan formed hand seals and instantly transformed into the form of Di Lu.

After deactivating the transformation, perform the hand seals again:

"Clone!"

Immediately, an identical copy of himself appeared next to his body.

"substitute!"

After dispelling the clone, his hands immediately formed the hand seals for the Substitution Jutsu, and his body vanished in a puff of smoke. When he reappeared, he was already five meters away, and the spot where he had been standing had turned into a small piece of wood.

Transformation Technique, Shadow Clone Technique, and Substitution Technique—the three most basic and simplest techniques for ninjas—were completely mastered by Li Chuan after a month.

To be honest, although it is the most basic Three Body Technique, it really gives him a very different feeling.

To completely transform into another person, to create an identical clone that instantly appears five meters away—either of these is incredibly magical and incomprehensible.

This unique experience also brought back a long-dormant feeling in Li Chuan's heart.

This feeling was the same as when he first started practicing martial arts, but it gradually disappeared with his later experiences.

Perhaps that is why his kung fu has remained stagnant.

At that time, he felt that no matter how hard he tried, he would eventually be no match for the power of modern weapons.

He could dodge bullets with his strong physique and accurate prediction, but he couldn't dodge a Gatling gun or withstand a rocket launcher.

Instead of worrying about money, I'd rather earn more so that I and my family can have a better life and my master, who is hospitalized in China, can have better medical care.

However, things are different now. He has only been in the first world for a month and has already mastered things that he could never have mastered in his previous life. The future holds countless possibilities.

Even disregarding ninjutsu, the enhancement of his physical body by chakra energy alone had already resulted in a breakthrough improvement in his strength, speed, and other aspects.

Perhaps, his entry into the small world was not only to resist the dangers in the Marvel world, but more so because of his original aspiration to break through his own limits and become stronger.

"Very good. In just one month, you have mastered the Three Bodies Technique to such an extent. This is truly beyond your master's expectations."

After watching Li Chuan complete the final substitution technique, Di Lu nodded with a look of satisfaction.

To be honest, in his opinion, Li Chuan was a genius at cultivating chakra and hand seals, but not a genius at learning ninjutsu, and he wasn't that quick to get the hang of ninjutsu.

However, Li Chuan's hard work paid off. Since he started learning ninjutsu, he discovered that Li Chuan spent almost all of his time, except for eating, sleeping, and going to the toilet, refining chakra and practicing ninjutsu.

Over and over again, it didn't seem to get boring at all.

Let alone a pampered prince, not even himself, nor anyone he had ever met, could do what Li Chuan did.

This requires not only patience, but also the ability to constantly endure the physical and mental exhaustion that comes from depleting chakra.

It was precisely because of this that his perception of Li Chuan underwent a genuine change.

Previously, it was only because of Prince Li Chuan's status and the five million taels of silver. Now, he genuinely approves of him and wants to teach him properly, making him his direct disciple.

He may be a bit older, but with such talent and perseverance, how could he not become a strong person?

"It's all thanks to Master's excellent guidance."

"A teacher for a day is a father for life." Since he had become Di Lu's disciple, even though Di Lu was actually younger than him, Li Chuan would not lack the respect due to him.

Seeing Li Chuan's respectful demeanor, Di Lu nodded in satisfaction once again.

Despite being a prince of noble status, Li Chuan never put on airs after becoming his disciple, always placing himself in the position of a student. This was one of the reasons why Li Chuan was respected by him.
