Chapter Twenty-Three: Failure in Practice

The practice of ninjutsu begins with the creation of chakra, which is the most basic introductory practice that ordinary people need to complete if they want to become a ninja!

Chakra is a combination of body and spirit, so as to control and condense various potential energies of the body, and finally perfectly integrate to produce an energy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

It sounds mysterious, but in reality, it's not that difficult to make chakra.

After listening to Jiraiya's explanation, Nagato immediately sat on the ground with his eyes closed, his hands folded, his body and spirit closely gathered, and in less than a minute, a trace of chakra surged in his body.

Thinking of the time it took to condense the first wisp of chakra when he first practiced chakra, he had to sigh: worthy of being the owner of the eye of reincarnation, Nagato's talent is really incomparable.

Konan spent about half an hour, and after Nagato, the second to complete Chakra's first practice from scratch.

Compared to Yahiko and Konan, Yahiko is much worse. His eyes were closed, his little face was wrinkled, his hands were folded and he was working hard, his legs were almost numb, his body was constantly trembling slightly, and he looked like a patient with severe constipation couldn't pull out the poop.

An hour... Two hours... Three hours... Four......

Finally, Yahiko pulled out... Ah no, it's a trace of chakra that has been condensed in his body.

"Oh yes, I've finally made it! Hey, aren't you okay yet, Sakaki?"

Yahiko excitedly cheered for this little success, but was amazed to see that Sakaki was still sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, as if he had not finished his cultivation yet.

Sakaki really didn't finish his practice, he sat upright on the ground, motionless until now, a few hours have passed, and still no new chakra can be condensed.

Zilai was also a little surprised, it was really hard to imagine that a person with such a strong talent would be in this level for so long, just like him before.

In fact... It's not at all!

Sakaki refused to allow any crane tail to unfold, he had already noticed it, and his failure had nothing to do with cultivation talent.

The reason why he can't condense the new chakra is because his body structure is too far from that of a normal person, he just maintains a human form, and the inside is actually an empty shell, and he doesn't have any internal organs, muscles, or anything.

In this way, the chakra cultivation method that ordinary people can use, when it comes to him, it is naturally useless.

"Sakaki, take your time, it will always work!" "Jiraiya, who was misunderstood, patted Sakaki on the shoulder, with a face of encouragement, and thought: Sakaki who looks so strange but super not simple, there are even worse places on his body than ordinary people, and it always feels like a breath of relief.

Konan and Nagato also sincerely encouraged Sakaki.

"Hahahaha~ Sakaki, come on, I will definitely wait for you in the 'distance', try to catch up, I believe in you, don't be discouraged, hahaha......"

Yahiko was extremely happy to find a little bit of place that could surpass Sakaki, and he didn't care that compared to Nagato and Konan, he was the one who said at the end of the crane!

Sakaki thought to himself: Since you can't increase the chakra by cultivating, then in the future, you will still rely on absorbing others to increase the chakra, anyway, I've always done this, so I'll continue to do this, and I feel that the efficiency of absorbing chakra is much higher than the efficiency of ordinary people's hard work to condense chakra.

So, it doesn't matter!

Night.

Jirai was also awakened by a faint cry, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the tatami mat next to him was empty, and Nagato was gone.

When he walked out the door, he saw a small figure huddled on the steps, from where the sound of crying came.

"Nagato, what's wrong?"

Jiraiya patted Nagato's shoulder, and then sat cross-legged beside Nagato, seeing the long tear stains on Nagato's cheeks, and a preoccupied look, he immediately comforted warmly.

"If you have something on your mind, let the teacher hear it. ā€

"Sensei......" Nagato silently raised his head to look at Jiraiya, feeling that this person revealed enough warmth for him to rely on.

"Is that the same thing from before?"

Nagato wiped away his tears and began to tell his thoughts: "At that time, Yahiko was injured, and I was very angry, so my brain went blank and I entered a state where I couldn't feel anything, and by the time I came back to my senses, the ninja had already fallen...

After that, I felt very scared because of the hatred, the lost self gave the other person to... Teacher, I did it wrong, there should be a better way!"

Jiraiya gently stroked Nagato's back, giving him more warm comfort.

"Nagato, I can't tell if you're doing it right or not. ā€

Yes, no matter what the reason, even if it is a 'legitimate' reason, it is difficult to say with certainty that such a thing as killing is right.

Jiraiya gave the only answer he was sure was right, and gave Nagato full affirmation in this regard.

"But thanks to you, Yahiko was saved, and you protected your friend, so what you did should be right, and no one will blame your ......"

Nagato, who was confused, listened to Jiraiya's words in a daze.

"Once you get hurt, you create hatred... On the contrary, if you hurt others, you will attract resentment and guilt, but it is precisely because you know that pain that you will know how to treat others gently, and this is human beings. ā€

"It's... What do you mean?"

"It means that you have grown......"

"Growth... What does that mean?"

"It's just being able to judge right and wrong for yourself. ā€

Jiraiya's words hit Nagato's heart word by word, like a clear spring flowing through, washing away the confusion that surrounded his heart.

"Yahiko, Konan, Sakaki, they all helped me when I was hungry, desperate, and on the verge of death, treating me as family, helping me, taking care of me, I just want to be with them and protect them, no matter what kind of pain I will feel!"

This is Nagato's intention.

"That's it......" Jiraiya smiled warmly, with a hint of relief and appreciation.

Nagato, what a gentle and kind child, with the eye of reincarnation, he may really be the reincarnation of the Six Realms Immortals, and if he is well guided, maybe he will really be like the Six Realms Immortals, bringing order and stability to the world.

As for the sakaki tree... At this time, Jiraiya hopes that Nagato is the child of prophecy.

Day by day.

The basic practice of chakra has come to an end, and the three of them have more or less condensed some chakra, and learned basic chakra control methods from practices such as treading water and climbing trees.

As for Sakaki, let alone cultivating chakra, he can't even master the cultivation of treading water and climbing trees, because he can't do such a thing as attaching chakra to the soles of his feet.

Sakaki discovers that his yang chakra can only maintain its chakra form around the core and in his body, and once it flows out, it cannot maintain a pure chakra form, and will immediately materialize - that is, become a rattan whip.

Reminiscing about these unusual performances of his own, Sakaki had some clues.
