Chapter 14: Becoming a Ninja
Saying goodbye to the three generations, the two came to the Hokage Rock.
Back on the street, Kenkage saw Naruto doing the job of cleaning the Hokage Rock with a brush under the urging of a shinobi.
Kenkage looked at the red "xx" on the nose of the original Hokage, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and said to Nagata beside him in a surprised tone, "Naruto is working hard. Cleaned up the other three Hokage rocks so quickly. ”
"I'll just take you as if you're complimenting him. Wait, I guess you can come down before noon. Akimichi Nagata walked over to the stone pier and sat down, taking out a box of biscuits from somewhere.
Every time he saw his movements, Jian Ying wondered if the Autumn Dao clan had sealed the food in the scroll, or how could they never finish eating on them.
He walked in the opposite direction, jumped onto the tree, gathered the chakra to the soles of his feet, hung his body upside down on it, and tried to get the chakra to attach evenly to the surface of his body.
Stepping on trees and treading water is to use the special characteristics of chakra to allow the body to stand on vertical trees, rocks, and undulating water surfaces. Based on this principle, the sword shadow derived the idea of "flying" into the sky - through the contact between the chakra and the surrounding air, the body floats into the air.
The idea was born a few years ago, and it has not come to fruition until now.
This kind of effort lasted for so long and didn't allow him to successfully fly into the sky, but the process of cultivation has improved Jian Ying's control over Chakra, and he has been increasing his control over Chakra by apprentice Luo Shenming, who cultivates spiritual ninjutsu, and now he can use other methods to improve his control, obviously this method has its uniqueness.
"Nagata, Uncle Achina is going to give me a weapon when I graduate, and I'm going to draw the weapon I want for him to prepare for me. I heard that Uncle Akido also has a gift for you, do you know what he wants to give you? "One inch long and one inch strong, although Kenkage is suitable for assassination ninjas, he doesn't like this way of fighting, so he wants to use the long knife as a weapon. Since he was able to travel to the Hokage world, Kenkage naturally pulled some exaggerated and impractical weapons from his previous life into the list of considerations.
Needless to say, Nagata is an offensive ninja, and if he has a suitable weapon, his combat power will inevitably increase greatly after mastering it.
In fact, the so-called one inch long and one inch strong is just the point of view of the sword shadow, and there are many ways in the world of ninjas to turn this advantage into a weakness.
Nagata shook his head and said distressedly: "Dad said a long time ago that he would build a weapon for me, and the patriarch uncle would also help, but I don't know what it will give me, but it will definitely not be given to me after graduation, and the weapon will not be available until I become a shinobi." Hehe, but Sword Shadow, I can guarantee that if you get the weapon now, if you don't use illusion, I'm afraid you'll lose to me. ”
Most of his battles with Kenkage ended in a stalemate. Over the course of a few years, Nagata had been infected by the Kenkage, and had gradually developed a competitive spirit - but this competitive spirit only worked on the Kenkage, and it was difficult for him to pay attention to the rest of the school.
"Really?" Jian Ying didn't care about this, he never thought that he was the best in the world, it was normal to be defeated, the only thing to consider was whether he had a chance to rise from defeat.
After waiting for half an hour, Naruto cleaned up the Hokage Rock.
Naruto, who supervised Naruto's clarity work, didn't show disdain for Naruto like ordinary people, but only distanced himself from him in the tone of his conversation.
"That kid is done, let's go up!" Sword Shadow reminds Nagata, who is concentrating on eating.
"Huh? He's done! Then let's go up. ”
Naruto seems to have big nerves, but he is actually very sensitive. The attitude of the villagers towards him made him aggrieved, he had not felt the warmth of family since he was born, and was surrounded by cynicism, and a child under the age of ten was able to maintain an optimistic spirit in this environment.
Even though his heart was full of tears, cold and miserable, he made himself smile, because Naruto knew very well that no one would come to comfort him even if he was in tears.
"Naruto, have you figured out where to go for lunch?"
With his hands in his pockets and his head down, Naruto walked silently on the street with a depressed face, and when he heard a familiar voice, he made him smile brightly, and he looked up at the two people in front of him eagerly: "Brother Nagata!" Sword Shadow ...... Eldest brother. ”
Seeing Naruto laugh and run towards him, the corner of Kenkage's eyes jumped, ignoring his unhappiness when he shouted at himself.
"Where have you been all these days? I didn't even see you. "Naruto is a typical scumbag, and it's not uncommon for him to be absent from class, be late, and leave early, so I really want to see Kenkage and Nagata, and I can see them at any time in the school.
Jian Ying explained to him: "The other day was a wilderness survival drill, and tomorrow is the graduation exam, so these days the teacher allowed us to arrange our own training plan, and Nagata and I chose to go to the wilderness. ”
"No wonder. I wonder why your class has become smaller. Naruto looked like he had a sudden realization.
Nagata was innocent when facing his friend, and said to Naruto, "You didn't have lunch, did you?" Today, Sword Shadow has a treat, you choose for yourself, where you want to eat. ”
"Huh! Didn't you go for a barbecue? How did it become that this kid could choose whatever he wanted. "Naruto's favorite thing is Ichiraku ramen, although it is a feature of Konoha, but after all, it is a popular food, very cheap and the taste is average, the reason why the original book appears many times is because Naruto has a poor life, and the best one he has eaten since he was a child is only Ichiraku ramen.
Sure enough, Naruto swore his goal with his hands on his hips: "The best thing to eat in Konoha is, of course, Ichiraku ramen." Brother Nagata, let's go to Ichiraku Ramen. I'm going to eat three bowls. ”
Nagata also thought of Naruto's favorite, he liked to eat barbecue very much, and when he forgot about this stubble just now, a sullen breath suddenly welled up in his chest.
“…… Whew, okay, let's go to Ichiraku ramen - I don't understand why you like ramen so much. You must know that yakiniku is much better than ramen. ”
"No, it's the ramen that tastes good......"
Listening to the two people next to him arguing about whether ramen was delicious or barbecue, a smile appeared on Jian Ying's face, walking on the street, letting the sun shine, and it didn't take long for his body to feel stuffy, but at this time, his heart was full of warmth. This kind of life, quiet and peaceful, is like returning to the childhood of the previous life, without thinking about the troubles of adulthood, and not worrying about the trivialities of life.
……………………
"Delicious! Dingji, you go and get another 20 skewers of barbecue. ”
Nagata looked satisfied, opened the knife left and right, and did not forget to stuff meat into his mouth when he ordered Ding Ji.
On their way to Ichiraku Ramen, the trio bump into Dingji and Shikamaru, with Nagata being older than Naruto. As an "elder brother", it is naturally not good to quarrel too much with each other on the issue of eating. But Ding Ci is different, the two are the same age, and they are classmates. Because of the proximity of Naruto and Nagata, the relationship between Shikamaru, Dingji and Naruto is even more familiar than in the original book.
This kind of acquaintance did not make the two sides become close friends, but they were closer than classmates. However, this closeness is impossible for Ding Ci to give up the barbecue. After Naruto swears that he will be the Hokage, Tinkji uses his size and strength to tell him what whimsical is, and then, everyone's destination becomes a yakiniku restaurant.
Maybe it's because Nagata and the others come often, or maybe it's because they spend a lot of money every time, and even during busy hours, the boss can find a good place for them.
Naruto, who had quarreled with people before, arguing that ramen was the best food, buried his head in eliminating the meat skewers in his hand, and the wooden fork in front of him was no less than Nagata's.
Shikamaru ate the barbecue slowly, looking indifferent to the things around him, and Kenkage knew his character. Even if he doesn't have the memory of his previous life, he knows his laziness after all these years of contact.
"What do you think about Shikamaru. Don't be reliant every time you see you, young man, be more energetic. ”
Kenkage used the words of his previous life to teach Shikamaru a lesson, but the tone of his voice immediately reminded him of the teacher he led the team after graduation, "I hope I won't be infected by Kai-sensei", so he began to silently pray for himself in his heart.
Shikamaru moved his gaze to him and said slowly, "I just want to look at the sky and lie in a quiet place, it's too noisy here." ”
"Then to satisfy you, you can only wait for my house to build a barbecue grill. At that time, you will be able to eat barbecue while lying down. ”
"Okay, okay, then you can eat barbecue every day." Ding Ci, who came back with a dozen skewers of barbecue, looked at Jian Ying excitedly.
Naruto finished the last bite in his hand, reached out to Ding Ji, and urged, "Give me a few strings." ”
Ding Ji gave him one string, and then divided two strings between Kenkage, Nagata, and Shikamaru, and dragged the rest in his own hands. Seeing this scene, Naruto quit and ran to Dingji's side to scramble for the barbecue......
"It was a really fulfilling day."
After eating lunch and looking at the flow of people on the street, Jian Ying sighed. Tomorrow after the exam, he has to leave school and become a ninja.
After so many years of hard work, my heart finally touched, like a stuck gear that has been pulled by a needle.
Nagata walked slowly beside him, perhaps because of the locals, but as a member of the Akido clan, he didn't feel nervous. For him, he has been a ninja since he was considered by the patriarch to have great potential. In addition, the Akido clan was a group of ninjas long before Konoha existed, so they didn't have to worry about the exam, not to mention any nervousness.
The three of them still had classes in the afternoon, and even though Naruto was full of reluctance, he finally followed Iruka, who he met by chance on the road, back to school. After that, Kenkage and Nagata also separated, and went back to prepare for their own affairs.
Akimichi, Nara, and Nakayama, as a famous combination of pigs, deer and butterflies, the three of them together can enhance their combat effectiveness. Unfortunately, not everyone has this opportunity. Among those who are the same age as Nagata, there are no children from the other two races, and the only Nakayama Ino has also decided to form a new pig deer butterfly with Shikamaru and Dingji.
But when it comes to combinations, any ninja who knows the two of them thinks that the combination of Kenkage and Nagata is no less than that of the new generation of Pig Deer Butterfly. Nagata's powerful hand-to-hand combat ability will serve as a wall to block the enemy's attack and ensure the safety of his companions. In the process, the speed of the sword shadow and the powerful illusion can not only provide Nagata with beneficial support, but also act as a fatal blow to hide in the shadows, attracting the attention of opponents.
The art of multiple shadow clones!
Several clouds of white mist appeared, and more than a dozen sword shadows stood at the door.
After nearly ten years of exercise, the number of chakras has increased by many times compared with when I was a child; A few years ago, because of his acquaintance with Naruto, he obtained the technique of multiple shadow clones from the third generation Hokage.
Although the technique of multiple shadow clones is more dangerous than the technique of shadow clones, in Sword Shadow's opinion, these dangers can be overcome, especially after the equipment in his consciousness is turned on in the future, even if more chakra is consumed, no matter how much mental power is consumed, it will become less fearful.
There were ten entity clones cultivating in the courtyard, and in the room, except for one clone who specialized in writing novels, the others were holding books and reading them carefully.
Now Jian Ying can finally change from copying novels to writing novels, and with years of experience, he can write works that are not inferior to second-rate writers with just a little creativity - anyway, writing novels is to make money, and there is no need to ensure that all the works written under his hands are first-class works.
Others read books related to ninjutsu sealing and ninja history, judging the intensity of the battle through descriptions of certain ninjutsu and descriptions of battlefields.
Sword Shadow was eager to study sealing, as the way it was used and stored made it easy for Sword Shadow to think of the technology of his past life: converting energy through some kind of mediation, and then using it to master more energy than he could control.
However, the art of sealing is extremely advanced and has been lost, and a large number of documents have been lost all over the world. The current sword shadow can't even be contacted, let alone research. The only thing that has to do with sealing is the scroll that stores all kinds of substances.
This kind of scroll has a store of forbearance, a store of water, fire, thunder and lightning, and a person from a distance who summons to the location of the scroll.
The water, fire, thunder and lightning stored in the scroll and the storage ninja are two different ways, the elemental substance will have a certain purpose after leaving the scroll, and it is not like the storage scroll to throw the things stored in it to the outside world, while the human scroll is similar to spiritism, attaching the chakra stored in the person to the scroll.
Sword Shadow was more impressed by the fact that during the middle ninja exam, several candidates couldn't help but open the scroll, and then collectively passed out, this is an illusion that is cast through spells, and in his eyes, it can also be attributed to the sealing technique.
Just as the life of the previous life was being occupied by electronic products, Jian Ying felt that the development potential of the sealing technique was huge, and it could also penetrate into all aspects of people's lives like the software in the previous life.
The next day, the graduation exams began, and Kenkage came to the school early, flipping through the book in his hand, which recorded the methods of ninjutsu and illusion that he knew, mixed with some of his own speculations. The most important thing is the description of the function of the spell burned above. Although the function of the charm was only to access objects, it was the only thing he could get his hands on to now related to sealing, though the effects were very different.
The graduation exam started more than an hour later than the start of class, so Kenkage waited a long time to see the students enter the classroom.
Everyone has been together for a few years, even if Jian Ying doesn't care, it's impossible not to even know the names of their classmates. Many people in the class can be named by name, but the relationship is very shallow and they have no friendship with each other.
After an ordinary greeting, Kenkage saw his best friend, Akimichi Nagata.
"That's it, there's still half an hour to start the exam." Jian Ying said to Nagata, who was sitting next to him, that the teacher had already told them the precautions for the exam, and the next step was the real exam.
Jian Ying didn't worry about the written exam, but it was a pity that the written test score, which was more important in class, actually fell into soy sauce in the graduation exam, which made him depressed for a while.
"Anyway, don't worry, Jian Ying, you don't need to worry about your grades, why are you here so early? Still looking at these, aren't you ready to practice swordsmanship? Why have I been holding this notebook for the past few months! Nagata felt that Sword Shadow was uncertain, the two first met at that time, and practiced physical arts, and later Sword Shadow and Shinnosuke learned medical ninjutsu, and then learned illusion with Luo Shenming, and now they actually want to study sealing.
This is just like a junior high school student first learns advanced mathematics, then learns computer language, and finally starts to study genetic engineering, the most important thing at present is to enhance the strength of the current stage, and a wide range of knowledge will help in the future, but the important thing now is not the vast knowledge, but the ability to get a hand.
As with playing game points, full strength, full agility, and full intelligence are exciting, but the reality is that we will elevate one of these attributes, and the argument that everything will equal mediocrity is evident when we are weak.
Jian Ying shook his head and said to him, "I haven't relaxed in my cultivation, these are things to watch in my spare time. Don't you think we'll use too little of ninjutsu compared to the ninjutsu in this world? ”
"Of course it's less, but everyone's situation is different. Even if you only know one ninjutsu, as long as you use it well, you can also become a powerful ninja - the teacher is here. ”
"Oh! The exam has begun. ”
The speed of the exam is very fast, in fact, they have all learned and experienced the content of the graduation exam in the past few years, Jian Ying passed the test easily, and he couldn't make the slightest wave, the most important thing in his eyes is the next teacher assignment, which is the part that needs to be cautious.
From memory, I know that the leader of each group has their own personality, and it is impossible for each group to test Shinobu like Kakashi. However, when he thought of Mike Kay's character, Jian Ying had a headache, even if he knew enough about this teacher's temperament, he couldn't think of what he was about to face.
Coming to the classroom early in the morning, Kenkage, like everyone else, listened to the voice of the teacher on the podium announcing the list: "Here is the fourth class, Yagyu Kenkage, Mitsuki Aoika, Akido Nagata...... Next up is the fifth class ......"
In the Hokage Building, the ninjas gathered in front of the three generations looked at the students in the crystal ball, and each thought about how to deal with these children for a while.
