Chapter 15: The Art of Shadow Clones

After leaving the back hall and finding a corner to sit down in the front hall, Genma took out a water balloon from his schoolbag again and held it in his hand.

As soon as the thought moved, the chakra spiraled from the palm of his hand, stirring the water in the balloon, causing its surface to tremble.

For a moment, he only heard a "bang", the water balloon exploded, and some water even splashed on Shiranui Genma, but he didn't care at all, but showed a smile.

Succeeded again.

……

After the spring break, the fifth class in the second year became the fifth class in the third year.

In addition to the higher grades, which can be called "children" by the first and second grades, the most exciting thing for the third-year students is undoubtedly the newly opened ninjutsu class.

From the third grade, they will officially start practicing ninjutsu.

The school did not disappoint the students, and there was a ninjutsu class on the morning of the first day of school, and the legendary ninjutsu teachers appeared one after another.

Before the start of classes, the classroom of Class 5 of the third year was unprecedentedly quiet, and the students were looking at the classroom door expectantly.

The bell rang, and a tall young man with a short beard walked into the classroom on time, looking quite serious.

Looking at this tall young man, I didn't know that Huo Xuanjian was slightly stunned.

Isn't this the Uchiha Kazuno-sensei who taught Uchiha Sakasuke before?

He still remembers the events of a few months ago quite clearly, so he can naturally recognize the corner of Umino. Unexpectedly, the corner of Umino has now become his own ninjutsu teacher.

I don't know that Genma thought about it, and looked in the direction of Uchiha Nakasuke, and sure enough, he saw Uchiha Nakasuke's face pale, and his right hand kept rubbing the textbook, and the whole person was cowardly.

The Uchiha seemed to notice something, and looked sideways, just in time to meet his gaze.

Senkai Genma smiled slightly, and Uchiha Nakasuke's face was blue and white, and his eyes were full of anger and resentment.

Umino didn't seem to have much of an impression of what happened before, and after he came in, he didn't even look at it, coughed and said, "Hello classmates, I'm your ninjutsu teacher, Umino Kazuki." ”

"If nothing else, I will teach you the ninjutsu courses for the next four years."

He was obviously a resolute teacher, and after a brief introduction to himself, he began to lecture: "Ninjutsu is the foundation of a ninja, and its importance does not need me to talk about it anymore. But the art is dead after all, and the key to learning ninjutsu is not in ninjutsu itself. ”

After a pause, he continued: "If a ninja wants to use powerful ninjutsu, there are three qualities that must be possessed, one is the amount of chakra, the second is the ability to control the chakra, and the third is the ability to seal. ”

"Of the three, the first two are more dependent on talent, and only the ability to seal is mainly dependent on ninja training. Therefore, for a qualified ninja, sealing is the most important basic skill! ”

Stamping!

By reading his father's notes, he already has a very deep understanding of the seal.

Chakra is composed of both spiritual energy and physical energy, and it is difficult for ninjas to achieve precise control of chakra with spirit alone. Only with the addition of the body's movement of chakra can the performance of ninjutsu be possible.

Looking at the human body, the most easily changing parts are none other than the hands, so using the hand seal is actually the most effective way for the flesh to influence Chakra summarized by the ninjas of the past generations.

It is in this way that ninjas can master many magical ninjutsu and exert incredible power.

"Therefore, from the third year to graduation, the seal is the most important part of the teaching and examination, and it can directly determine whether you can graduate successfully. And the seal can only rely on hard work, if you don't practice often, when it comes to the exam, there is only one way to fail. Umino said.

Before he finished speaking, there was a slight commotion in the classroom.

While the students were discussing, someone pretended to make a seal.

In response to the students' reaction, Kazuki Umino did not show the slightest surprise and did not try to stop it.

A few minutes passed, and he tapped on the blackboard: "Okay, let's be quiet." ”

Quiet soon returned to the classroom.

"Now, turning to page 5 of the textbook, let's formally learn the basics of stamping."

In the corner of Umino, he pressed the textbook on the lectern, flattened it, and then spoke slowly:

"After the summary of the ninjas of the past generations, there are now twelve basic gestures, which are called the "twelve characters", which are Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Tatsu, and Si ......."

……

Six months later.

Land of Fire October 640.

I don't know Huo Xuanma stood in the courtyard, facing a big stone in front of him, concentrating and calming, and then pulled the chakra in his body, and after quickly forming five seals with both hands, he slapped the big stone with one palm.

A subtle sensation arose, as if a chain was extending from his body, connecting him to the boulder in front of him.

After doing this, I didn't know that Huo Xuanjian took a few steps back, and then made a sword finger with one hand, standing in front of him, showing half an "unsealed".

"Bang!"

After a surge of air, the figure of Shiranui Genma flashed out of thin air to the location where the original boulder was, and the boulder appeared at the same time where he had just stood.

The stand-in technique is successful!

Looking at the surrounding scene, I can't help but smile.

After half a year of seal training, as well as repeated practice of the stand-in technique, he can finally use the stand-in technique smoothly.

It can be said that at the age of nine years and three months, he already basically has the strength to endure under him.

Moving the boulder back to the corner, he returned to his room, took his father's notes, sat on the edge of the bed and turned it over.

In the past six months, although the part-time job has taken up a lot of his time, the training plan he has formulated has basically not fallen behind - by wearing weights, even if he sweeps the floor in the store, he can also have a certain exercise effect.

This has made the amount of chakra in Shiranui Genma always maintain a rapid growth rate, although he has not made a specific comparison, but he believes that his current chakra volume has exceeded that of most of his peers.

So he felt that it was time to practice the art of shadow clones.

Technically speaking, the shadow clone technique is not difficult, and it can even be said that there are few ninjutsu that are simpler than the shadow clone, otherwise Naruto would not have been able to practice it overnight.

However, the shadow clone technique has a rigid requirement for the amount of chakra, and ninjas who are scarce in chakra often dare not use this ninjutsu at will.

I don't know Huo Xuanjian's estimate, with his current chakra amount, it shouldn't be a problem to separate a shadow clone.

The reason why he was in a hurry to cultivate the shadow clone was mainly because the part-time job was too time-consuming, and even if he became more and more diligent, the part-time job would inevitably affect the effect of his cultivation.

And so far, after seven months of work, I don't know that Huo Genma will repay more than 90,000 taels of debt, and more than half of it has not been paid off, so I have to work for nearly another year.

One year!

It's a big head to think about.

As long as you can practice the shadow clone, the clone will have skills at that time, and there will naturally be a lot more time.

After carefully reading the details of the shadow clone in the notes, Shiranui Genma immediately stood up and triggered Chakra while sealing his hands.

The art of shadow clones!

"Bang!"

In the midst of the surging airflow, a figure identical to Shiranui Genma flashed out of thin air, but it lasted for less than two seconds before it dispersed with a "bang".

The first time I practiced the art of shadow clones, I failed.

Feeling the chakra that suddenly disappeared most of the body in his body, he didn't know that Huo Xuan was secretly speechless.

After just one practice, there is not much chakra left for him, and it is estimated that he will not be able to practice it for the second time this day, and the consumption of the shadow clone technique on the chakra is really not a joke.

Presumably, only a person like Naruto, who is born with a large amount of chakra and is also a nine-tailed pillar power, can use the shadow clone as he wants.

It took three days for Shiranui Genma to finally master the technique of shadow clone.

At this moment, in the room.

The two of them stood opposite each other, both looking each other up and down, and from time to time they reached out and pinched each other.

Looking at the "self" in front of him, he was amazed in his heart.

The shadow clone is different, with his current perception ability, he can't even tell the difference between his own doppelganger and the entity, no matter how it looks or touches, it is all the same as a real person, it's just copy and paste.

In addition to being physical, shadow clones also possess an independent consciousness that can act according to a plan that the ontology has conceived in advance, and can also adapt to various complex situations.

"That...... I'm a doppelganger, right? ”

At this time, the clone on the opposite side suddenly said with some hesitation.

Hearing this, I don't know that Huo Xuanma was stunned at first, and then his heart jumped suddenly.

He suddenly realized that he was not sure that he was the essence at this time.

Because the memories of the main body and the clone are exactly the same, they both remember that they just performed the shadow clone technique, and then there was an extra "self" next to them out of thin air......

Fortunately, the orientation, five senses, and remaining chakra amount of the main body and the clone are different, so the two "Ignorant Fire Genma" quickly clarified their identities.

After confirming that he was the main body, he didn't know that Huo Genma sweated slightly.

I never expected it...... There are still problems with using shadow clones.
