Volume 2: The Ninja Life Chapter 49
Chapter 49 is like this
It's still noon, and there aren't many people in the izakaya, and the place chosen by Kakashi, Asma, and Red Shinobi is very quiet, so Asma's words, although low, still clearly reach the ears of Kakashi and Sunset.
"You're confident, Asma." Sunset Red heard Asma's words, especially its tone, and couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, as a female ninja, and still a ninja, naturally has an independent personality and self-esteem, Sunset Red doesn't think that he loses to men, although he is still a newcomer to the upper ninja, but in terms of cultivating his subordinates, it may not be as good as Asma and Kakashi, so at this time, he said not very admittedly: "Although Shikamaru has always been the first in the ninja school, but now that he has graduated for so long, the lower ninjas of his class have also made a lot of progress!" ”
"The strongest shinobi, I'm afraid it's a bit worthy of the name, Asma." Kakashi's expression, which had always looked listless, was slightly retracted, and he said to Asma, who was still smiling confidently, "Sasuke and Naruto in our class have made great progress during this time, if you underestimate them, Shikamaru will also suffer!" ”
"The ninjas of the Uchiha clan, and the nine-tailed imp, I won't underestimate them." Asma took a deep puff of her cigarette and said to Kakashi, "Actually, even if I don't have this middle ninja exam, I plan to recommend Shikamaru from our class to be promoted to middle ninja." ”
When Sunset Red and Kakashi heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, with shocked faces, the middle ninja exam with the participation of many countries is actually just a microcosm and stage of competition among countries, even if it is held by the Konoha Ninja Village, one of the five major ninja villages, there is no right to say that it monopolizes the promotion path of the ninjas in each village, and each ninja village naturally has the right to promote the middle ninja by itself.
However, the lower ninjas who participate in the middle ninja exam are basically elites, so it is very difficult, and the ninjas who are promoted to the middle ninja have a higher gold content, recommended by others, or the middle ninja who is assessed within the ninja village, which is much more ordinary in comparison, but combined with Shikamaru's current ninja age, Asma's recommendation is unusual.
"I often play shogi with Shikamaru, but I never win a game, and most of them are captured within thirty hands, with very few exceptions." Sarufei Asma looked at the expressions on the faces of Kakashi and Sunset, and said seemingly unrelated words flatly: "Every time he plays chess with me, he has never been impatient and lax, he must maintain a fast and fierce tough attack, but at the same time, he can constantly lay secret hands and traps in the process, even when he has the upper hand, he never gives up, in order to prevent me from turning the tables." ”
"Step by step, that's my evaluation of Shikamaru's chess products," Sarufei Asma said about the victory or defeat of playing chess with Shikamaru, his tone was slightly unnatural, with both pride and a hint of annoyance: "That kid can't despise any enemy!" ”
"Even if you say that," Yuri Red Hidemi frowned and retorted Asma's words, "It's too hasty to affirm that he can become a shinobi just by playing shogi, right?" Although it is a refutation and questioning, there is actually a hint of concern in the tone of the sunset, recommending a teenager to become a middle ninja, no matter what the result is, his reputation also bears a responsibility, Shikamaru is too young after all, the most important thing is that the ninja age is only a year, not long after graduating from the ninja school, he was recommended, and the success rate is not high in Sunset.
"Actually, I didn't tell my three subordinates either, this exam is taken in small groups," Sarufei Asma shook his head with a smile, and he didn't know if he understood the concern in Sunset's tone, this attitude made Sunset Red secretly grit his teeth, but Asma didn't seem to care, raised his chin slightly, and motioned to Kakashi to say, "But I'm different from Kakashi, you don't need to worry about them." ”
"Because as long as Shikamaru chooses to take the exam, Ino and Ding Ji will definitely participate." Sarutobi Asma said to Kakashi Hachiki, "You guys often quarrel with each other, Naruto and Sasuke, the sworn rivals, even I've heard of it." ”
Kakashi couldn't help but feel disappointed when he heard the ridicule in Asma's tone, but he had to nod his head, because this was indeed the truth, and Asma saw this, and said to Sunset Red: "The three shinobi in your class will also quarrel!" ”
Sunset Red hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded to confirm Asma's words, Hinata has a shy personality, but Ya's personality is outgoing and slightly proud, while Shino seems to be introverted and silent, but surprisingly strong, although the two are not as awkward as Naruto and Sasuke every day, but they often quarrel and quarrel.
"The three of us in my class have never quarreled!" Asma spit out the smoke from his mouth like a sharp sword floating far away, his eyes stared at the smoke tightly, as if he felt a little complacent, and his tone was brisk: "All this is still the credit of Shikamaru, I am ashamed to say it, in fact, he is in our class, many times he speaks more effectively than me, he is simply the well-deserved leader of the team, and Shikamaru, Ino and Ding Ci are all the same age, and they are still classmates, but Ino and Ding Ci have never expressed objections and whispers about Shikamaru's status in the team!" ”
"Compared to friends, I think that the relationship between Shikamaru and Dingji and Ino is more like the relationship between seniors and juniors, superiors and subordinates." Asma continued: "He is always able to take care of the two of them in normal times, and when he is doing tasks, he can successfully encourage the confidence of the two of them, and he can also give full play to the strengths and advantages of the two of them, this kind of leadership ability is ......, and it is no longer something that Shinobi can accommodate." ”
"That's why I can say for sure that this kid Shikamaru has already been qualified for the middle ninja," Asma said with a calm face, "I'm afraid that even among all the lower ninjas who took the exam this time, his personal qualities are among the best." ”
“……。” Kakashi and Yuri Hong were silent, the two of them naturally knew what it meant that Ino and Dingji were almost obedient to Shikamaru, even if they were geniuses like Kakashi, who became Shinobi at a young age, Obito as a companion still had a deep opinion of him, Shikamaru was still Shinobi, and he was able to do it to such a point, and his leadership ability was self-evident.
However, today is destined to be a day of surprise for Sunset Red and Kakashi, and Asma Sarutobi seemed to think of something at this time, frowned, and said, "This is not the most terrifying thing about that child. ”
Terrible!? Asma actually used terrible to describe Shikamaru, and Asma's tone when he talked about Shikamaru before was mostly with pride and pride, but at this time, it was not, which made Sunset Red and Kakashi feel a little puzzled and puzzled.
"I'm afraid even Shikamaru himself didn't notice it." Asma narrowed his eyes slightly, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "He is like a monster who is always full of energy, he has the desire to learn any knowledge and skill, and he is fascinated. ”
"Shikamaru's comprehension, and amazing perseverance, allowed him to learn these new knowledge and skills very quickly." Sarufei Asma said thoughtfully, but he thought of the late stage of the original wave country mission, because of the death of Cardo, the mission was basically fine, and Shikamaru carried out the kind of cultivation method of leisure and entertainment every day except for the necessary physiological needs, especially during the period of induction, it was like being enchanted, but there was no abnormality in the personality, such as malaise, mental exhaustion and the like, Shikamaru himself regarded this as an extremely normal thing, this manifestation, It even made Asma feel a little frightened.
Asma was silent, and for some reason, she remembered the first time she saw that feminine man by her father's side many years ago, although she was always silent, she could still feel that under her calm face, there was infinite energy and ambition hidden.
It also contains an incomparable enthusiasm for ninjutsu knowledge.,It's also shrouded in the aura of genius.,And there's a terrifying perseverance and patience.。
"Shikamaru ......," Asma pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray and extinguished it, thinking to herself, "You have to be more powerful than that Orochimaru guy!" ”
…………
Unbeknownst to everyone, Shikamaru, who was thought of by Asma as a dangerous Konoha wanted criminal, had already entered the classroom with Ino and Dingji.
There were some ninjas sitting in the classroom, Shikamaru looked carefully, but he didn't notice the lower ninja of Konoha Village, and after thinking about it for a while, he knew it in his heart.
Like Gangzi Iron and Shenyue Izumo, the behavior of disguising the middle ninja as the lower ninja and secretly assessing the candidates, is actually limited to the Konoha Shinobi, the purpose is to warn and eliminate the Shinobi who are not strong enough and quality, avoid unnecessary deaths and injuries, remove the positive factors, these quality of the Shinobi who are not enough, participate in the competition, if the results are too poor, but lose the face of Konoha.
As for the lower ninja of other countries, how to be killed and injured in the exam, naturally not taken to heart by Konoha, as a competitor in the industry, as a seed of war, there are many casualties, it is a good thing!
Although Shikamaru already has some reputation in Konoha, these shinobi from other villages are naturally not familiar with this, and after the door of the classroom opened, these people only looked at the three people who entered the classroom with a little scrutiny, and after finding that Shikamaru was sitting quietly in the corner of the classroom with Ino and Dingji, they also withdrew their gaze.
After Shikamaru sat down, he also looked at the many ninjas in the classroom, and found that there were no acquaintances, but he still observed carefully.
Many times, from a person's behavior and language to observe, you can find a lot of characteristics, among which the left and right handers are the most superficial, wiping the nose, scratching the face, rubbing the palms of the ......, these behaviors are not immediately changeable, people will do it unconsciously in many times, remember everyone's behavior, not only can you easily see through the disguise after their use of transformation, but also when using transformation or illusion to confuse the enemy in the future, these seemingly unimportant small information can also improve the success rate.
