Chapter 5: Ordinary Geniuses
In the grove behind the ninja school, the afterglow of the setting sun fades into the horizon.
Asma stood in the middle of the forest like a stone statue that had lost its soul, muttering, "Impossible, impossible......"
On the side, Soseki flicked the "silk thread" on his fingertips and asked, "Asma-san, is this Chakra?" β
Asma came back to her senses and looked at Soseki's eyes with a complicated look, "How could you learn to refine chakra so quickly?" Could it be that I can't match him in terms of ninja talent? β
It takes about half a month to a month for a person of medium talent to learn to refine chakra, while a genius can do it in just three daysβthis is what the tutor who was a special shinobi said when he refined chakra in three days.
He didn't think that it would take half a month for Soseki to learn to refine chakra, as a "strong man" recognized by him, it was very reasonable to learn to refine chakra in five days.
However, it has not been ten minutes since I taught him, I am a genius, so what is he...... Asma stared at Soseki with the eyes of a monster, and finally couldn't help but ask, "You, how did you succeed in refining it all at once?" β
Soseki shook his head slightly, "Actually, this isn't the first time I've refined chakra. β
Asma was confused, "Huh? Didn't you say that no one taught you to refine chakra? β
"Maybe Asma-san, you don't know, I've actually been working as a nurse for patients in the hospital, although I don't have chakra myself, but I've actually seen many times when nurses and sisters refine chakra." Soseki explained with a smile, "And today, didn't Yagami Sensei talk a lot about Chakra's system theory? β
"Huh? Have it? Asma asked confusedly.
It's not that he gets distracted in class or sleeps, but he has learned this knowledge in advance, but he himself has never paid much attention to theory, and in his opinion, it is better to practice the speed of printing when he has this time.
Soseki's reaction to Asma is not surprising at all, in the ninja school, theoretical knowledge has never been valued, and teachers value the students' practical operation and on-the-spot adaptability more important.
Therefore, when conducting some theoretical exams, the school not only does not object to cheating, but even encourages students to cheat, as long as the means of cheating are not too obvious.
"Of course there is." Soseki said in a gentle tone, and said unhurriedly, "I also learned a complete theoretical knowledge today, and on this basis, I barely figured out what it was like to refine Chakra, but unfortunately the refining method I envisioned myself was still too rough, and I didn't succeed in refining it all day today, or Asma-classmate, you only did it after you told me the complete Chakra refining method." β
"Oh, that's right." With so much foreshadowing, Asma felt much easier to accept.
But what he didn't know was that just watching others refine chakra and understand the theory of chakra, he could reverse the method of refining chakra, which was actually far more terrifying than refining chakra for the first time.
As he spoke, Asma said with full vitality, "It is worthy of my destined rival!" But I want to remind you that chakra is just the basics, and ninjutsu is the foundation of ninjas! It may take a few years for mediocre ninjas to learn the most basic three-body technique, but for talented geniuses like us, the routine is broken! β
Soseki nodded thoughtfully, yes, this world has never been fair.
Seeing that Soseki agreed with his point of view, Asma was even more happy, and for the first time in his heart, the feeling of a confidant rose, "Let's go, I'll invite you to eat Ichiraku ramen." (Ichiraku ramen has been around for a long time, and Kakashi Obito and they also ate it when they were young)
"I'll ask you, if I didn't have your help, I'd be very troubled today."
"But is the relief money from the village enough?" Asma hesitated, he also knew that Soseki's family would not be very good.
"Have you forgotten, I'm still working in the hospital." Soseki smiled warmly, "At least, it's okay to treat a friend to a meal of Ichiraku ramen." β
"Friend, is this a friend?" Asma muttered to herself, only to feel that her nose was sour, and then quickly changed the topic and said, "By the way, I think your skill in controlling the chakra line just now seems to be quite powerful, how did you do it?" β
"Well, it's mainly a test of physical and mental coordination, and if you want to learn it, I suggest you start with ordinary suture surgery...... By the way, you can pick up a lot of unpeeled animal skin and meat in the vegetable market. β
Seeing that Soseki was talking about such a terrible thing in the gentlest tone, Asma couldn't help but laugh twice, "Ha...... Haha, forget it, I'm not going to be a puppeteer or a medical ninja. β
β¦β¦
Three generations of Hokage families.
"Today is supposed to be Asma's first day of school, right?" Seeing that Asma hadn't come home so late, the three generations rubbed their eyebrows and sighed, "It's only the first day, so it's not worry-free." β
"Hokage-sama, you may have really misunderstood Master Asma this time." The ninja standing on the side replied respectfully. (Ebisu's suffix to Konohamaru is the young master)
"Oh?" The third generation looked to the side with some surprise, he knew that although Takeuchi Taiga was a little tactful, he would never dare to lie to him about this kind of thing.
"Can you tell me what's going on?"
"According to the information I have received, Master Asma's performance in the school today is very impressive! He is the only person in the class who wants to serve everyone and runs for class president, although the election failed, but Young Master Asma finally became a sympathetic friend with the other party......" Takeuchi Taiga slightly "simplified" the process in the middle, "Young Master Asma didn't go home today, also because he wanted to help his friend master the method of refining chakra as soon as possible." β
"Oh? Asma lost! Three generations' eyes lit up, although his son has a somewhat rebellious personality, his talent is indeed good, plus he has the bonus of being the son of the Hokage, and he never thought of the result of losing the election.
But when he heard it, he felt more and more that something was wrong.
"Sympathy? Friend? Help? The corners of the three generations' mouths twitched slightly, "What you said made me even more confused, can you tell me the details of the incident?" β
Takeuchi Taiga took out a document with an embarrassed face and handed it to the three generations.
Looking at the records on the documents, the corners of the eyes of the three generations jumped wildly, and Asma's performance was indeed very "eye-catching".
Well, I almost blinded his old eyes.
But soon, his attention was drawn to another person mentioned in the document.
"The descendants of civilian ninjas who died in the war? It's really hard for him to have such a positive and sunny attitude. β
The third generation sighed slightly, and at this moment, his eyes were suddenly firmly attracted by a sentence on the document, and he couldn't take it off, "It's not that you can only be recognized by everyone when you become a Hokage, but only someone who is recognized by people...... to become the Hokage! β
"This belief ......" the third generation was really moved this time, he really couldn't imagine that such words came from the mouth of a five-year-old child.
"I see the brilliance of the 'Will of Fire' in him! It is precisely because of descendants like them that everything we do is meaningful, and the heroic will that died in the war can be passed on. β
After a moment of silence, the third generation said again, "Remember to remind me of the battle in half a month." β
Taiga Takeuchi was surprised, "Hokage-sama, do you want to go and ...... yourself?"
Miyo smiled, "Don't think too much, I'm just ...... As a father, care about his son's performance. β
Takeuchi Dahe's face was suddenly pale, isn't it just a tool man, I understand!
