It was getting late, and Yamato was walking on his way home.

It's another busy day, so I'll just find a random one for dinner on the way later.

Yamato caught a glimpse of a figure suddenly appearing in front of him, leaning against the wall.

Who is it? Looks like they're coming for me. Yamato was a little confused and wary. Konoha had only suffered a great turmoil before, and his vigilance was much higher.

When he saw the person leaning against the wall, Yamato was a little surprised and puzzled: "Jiraiya-sama?" ”

What is the matter with Jiraiya-sama coming to find him?

"Tianzo, I have something to ask you."

"Speak, please."

Jiraiya plucked out his ears: "In the class you led the team, that kid named Hayakawa Aoyagi, how is it?" Let's talk about character strength, how to practice and so on. ”

Yamato thought for a moment and spoke......

After a while, Jiraiya left, and Yamato was a little grateful: "Then it's troublesome for Jiraiya." ”

………………

At night, it was cloudy tonight, the moon was hiding behind the clouds most of the time, and the courtyard was dark.

There were three targets in front of him, and Aoyagi was about to throw them with a sword in each hand.

Click, a sudden sound came from behind him, disturbed by this sudden sound, Aoyagi's hand that was throwing out the shuriken shook slightly, and two of the shuriken that flew out missed the bull's-eye.

His body tensed, and he quickly turned around and saw an uncle with white hair and clogs standing in the shade of a tree with his hands on his chest.

"Little ghost, I'm an immortal from Miaomu Mountain. I've been asked to give you some guidance. ”

Before Aoyagi could reply, Jiraiya began to speak.

"I already know something about your situation." Jiraiya was serious and stretched out two fingers, "There are two questions." ”

"First, you've neglected the practice of the body a little bit. Your physical foundation is quite good among your peers, but it's not enough, if you want to get stronger, that's the biggest shackle. You need to do more physical training. ”

Aoyagi thinks that he has maintained a certain amount of training every day, so he should not ignore it.

Seeing that Aoyagi was a little confused, Jiraiya emphasized: "Your training intensity is not enough." Your physical potential is very good, but unfortunately you can't use it well because of the lack of training intensity. Therefore, you have to do high-intensity physical exercise to break through the limits of your body again and again, so as to stimulate the potential of your body. ”

"The body is the foundation, and if you don't have enough strength, speed, and chakra, no matter how much you learn the arts, you won't be able to become a real powerhouse."

"Of course, it's not that you have to ignore ninjutsu. It's about prioritizing and being efficient. You are now in the golden period of physical development, and the results are best when you practice your body during this period. ”

Jiraiya shook his finger: "But, you spent so much time on ninjutsu development that you wasted some of your physical training." It's not good. ”

"It's really amazing that you can develop ninjutsu on your own. Thanks to the ninjutsu you developed, your current strength is okay. Jiraiya, who had a serious face, looked very generous, and his tone was firm, "But if you don't seize this golden time to exercise as much as possible, your upper limit will be significantly affected, and it will be difficult to become a top powerhouse." ”

"It takes too much time to develop ninjutsu, and it doesn't necessarily bear fruit. Although a powerful ninjutsu can instantly boost your combat power. But that's just a part of your strength that makes up some of them. If the body can't keep up, there will still be obvious shortcomings. ”

"Strong, it should be strong in all aspects, strong with shortcomings, once you are caught in weakness, you will be easily knocked down."

Aoyagi listened to Jiraiya's analysis, combined with his own situation, and he was also secretly frightened. I don't know when, I gradually neglected the importance of the basics, indulged in the development of ninjutsu, and the most basic physical exercise slowly decreased.

Seeing Aoyagi's expression, Jiraiya understood that Aoyagi had understood, and summed it up: "You should spend more time on strengthening yourself." For ninjas, physical fitness and chakra are the foundation. ”

"Thank you for your advice! Don't know what the second question is? Aoyagi was convinced.

"Second, for you now, there are enough ninjutsu. But you probably haven't organized your ninjutsu well to form a complete system, right? Sometimes, one proper ninjutsu is better than you unleashing ten ninjutsu indiscriminately. Therefore, you have to learn to evaluate your opponents, evaluate yourself, and then choose the right ninjutsu to fight. ”

"Jiraiya-sama, you're right, sometimes it's hard for me to decide what ninjutsu to unleash during a fight. So what should I do? ”

"Ninjutsu is nothing more than attacking, defending, and supporting. Depending on the function and specific characteristics of ninjutsu, you can combine some routines in advance and use them directly in battle. Later, when you have a deeper understanding of the application of ninjutsu, you can adapt to the situation in battle, which is a higher realm. ”

"Also, you have to pay attention to ninjutsu, the more you learn, the better. Those with overlapping functions can be ignored, and those redundant ninjutsu that are not cost-effective should also be ignored. You first practice the main ninjutsu to mastery, improve their attack power and accuracy, or defense, and then consider the others after reaching the bottleneck. ”

Jiraiya shook his head: "Before, you spent a lot of time on some ninjutsu that were not necessary. Although your ability to develop ninjutsu is quite powerful, you must know that developing ninjutsu is very time-consuming. ”

Although there is a mental space that reduces the occupation of practice time by developing ninjutsu, there is no chakra in the mental space, and some steps can only be carried out in the real world, such as exploring the operation of chakra in ninjutsu, practicing new ninjutsu, etc. It did take me quite a bit of time.

"You have to remember that ninjutsu is not much more expensive. Even if you master ninjutsu more to deal with different situations, you have to reach a level of mastery in some aspects before developing others. It is difficult to master many ninjutsu in one go. ”

"I see, thank you for the pointers!" Aoyagi bowed sincerely.

Zilai also curled the corners of his mouth: "You work hard, I'll go." "After a burst of white fog, the self also disappeared.

After Jiraiya left, Aoyagi still stood in place, his thoughts churning, thinking about his future practice.

After listening to Jiraiya's guidance, Aoyagi had a clearer understanding of how the next practice should be carried out, and a clearer grasp of the general direction.

Since the use of arcane techniques to strengthen the body, there has been some neglect of primitive exercise. Let's increase our practice in this area first.

As for the development and application of ninjutsu, we have to think carefully about the future path.
