Chapter 31: Art Is...
The land of earth, Iwakuin Village.
In the center of the training ground, a tall and energetic little old man stood with his hands in his hands.
Although he was not much taller than the two children in front of him, no one dared to underestimate this inconspicuous little old man.
Because this person is the third generation of the famous ninja world, the Tokage two scales Onoki, as the oldest shadow-level powerhouse in the ninja world today, he is even older than the same period of Sarutobi Hichisa and Chiyo's mother-in-law.
At this time, this Tsuchikage is educating the two children standing in front of him.
"Terracotta, Deidara, how did I master the earth escape technique I taught you before?"
Chitu and Deidara are tall and short, fat and thin, you look at me, I look at you, and no one speaks.
Onoki shook his head helplessly, and could only name one of them to try it first.
"Terracotta, you're a year older than Deidara, so come first."
Terracotta took a step forward, got down on one knee, and began to seal his hands.
Although his fingers are slightly fat, the seal is not too slow, and his hands make six seals of Chen-Wu-Shen-Hai-Wu-Si, and then pat the ground.
"Tu Dun, Tulu returns!"
With a very imposing shout, a huge square stone slab rose from the ground in front of the terracotta and stood right in front of the terracotta.
"It worked!"
Seeing the slate unbelievably taking shape and standing intact in front of him, the terracotta immediately jumped up with joy, and the baby fat on his face trembled with it.
But probably because of the loud cry of the terracotta, the huge stone slab only stood for two seconds before collapsing, and the stone slab fell to the ground and became a clump of earth.
"How can such hardness defend against enemy attacks?"
Onoki shook his head in disappointment, it took three days to master C-level ninjutsu, is it really still a little reluctant?
"Deidara, it's your turn."
Another child, named Deidara, has just turned four years old this year, but he has successfully refined chakra and can practice ninjutsu.
Deidara knelt on one knee and made a seal on both hands, but the seal was slightly different from that of terracotta.
Chen-Shen-E-巳.
"Tu Dun, Tulu returns!"
With both hands on the ground, a stone slab the size of terracotta rose from the ground and stood in front of Deidara's diminutive body.
The slate stood up, Deidara did not shout, and the slab did not fall.
Onoki walked over to the slate and put his hand on it with a slight force, and a few pieces of gravel fell from the edge of the slate, but the entire slab did not collapse and fall.
It's sturdy.
And looking at the order of Deidara's seals just now, did you omit two seals?
In three days, the two seals were omitted, and this kid's talent was good.
Could it be that our Rock Hidden Village is also going to give birth to geniuses?
Although Iwakuin Village, as one of the five major ninja villages, has a powerful force that cannot be ignored, Onoki has always been worried in his heart.
This worry is that the high-end combat power of Iwain Village is not available, especially the ninjas with shadow-level strength.
At present, among the five major ninja villages, Yunyin Village, Sand Hidden Village, and Fog Hidden Village have all been updated to the fourth generation of shadows, and only Iwayin Village and Konoha Village are still third-generation shadows.
But Konoha Village once had at least four generations of shadows, and although they were dead, as long as the three shinobi were still alive, Konoha Village would not lack new Hokage.
But Iwakuin Village really doesn't have an ideal candidate for Tokage.
The renewal of the shadow level leader of the ninja village is not good in the short term, because the change of power is more likely to cause turmoil in the ninja village.
But in the long run, the renewal of the shadow-level boss will happen sooner or later, and it is an indisputable fact that the aging of the body will cause the strength of the ninja to plummet.
And now, just a few years after the end of the Third Shinobi War, it is a good time to replace the Tsuchikage, and use the internal power of the Stable Shadow during the truce to benefit the entire Iwakuin Village.
But now the embarrassment that Onoki is facing is that there is no one to replace!
Although his son Loess is already a ninja and is proficient in all kinds of earth escape ninjutsu, he has not been able to master his unique stunt Dust Escape, and there is no blood inheritance limit, and there is still a gap from the shadow level.
There are also two other people who can be regarded as pillars of shadow-level strength.
Lao Zi, because he is not in harmony with Onogi, has been away for many years.
Han, who has a unique blood inheritance limit boiling away, but Onoki has publicly stated many times that he does not want to put Tsuchikage in the hands of an imperfect human pillar force.
In addition to worrying that the human pillar force will get out of control, there is actually the selfishness of Onoki, and what Onoki really wants to see is that his descendants inherit the position of Tsuchikage.
His son Loess is old, and it is impossible to go further in ninjutsu, and this burden can only fall on his granddaughter Heitu.
Glancing at the black soil playing in the sand in the distance, Onoki smiled.
The current Kuroto is only three years old, but Onoki is already paving the way for the Dokage Road of Kuroto.
The little fat man in front of him called Terracotta, who was born in the ninja family of Iwain Village, has excellent talent, and he refined Chakra at the age of five and is already a leader among his peers.
Although Deidara's parents are both rock carving artists in the country of the earth and are not ninjas, Deidara was only four years old and refined chakra without anyone's guidance, so he was sent to Iwakuin Village to become a ninja.
These two will be the guards of the black soil in the future, and the high-end combat power of Iwain Village, so Onoki will personally teach the two.
With the personal inheritance of three generations of Tsuchikage, who else in the ninja world today can get such an honor?
...
Pity my old bones and teach children here, granddaughter, you have to understand my good intentions!
Onoki felt a word of self-pity in his heart, and then began to explain the various points and tricks of performing the earth escape technique to Akatsu and Deidara.
As the most proficient person in the world today, this lesson is worth a thousand dollars!
Half a day passed, and Onoki's explanation finally came to an end.
At this moment, a ninja from Iwakuin Village appeared next to Onoki on one knee.
"Report to Tokage-sama, I got the latest information from the village in front of the ingot, and Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas in Konoha Village, defected from Konoha Village three days ago and became a traitor."
Onoki nodded meaningfully and sighed, "One of the three ninjas, there are two more." ”
"Do you know the reason for Orochimaru's defection?"
"I don't know, I only know that the direction in which Orochimaru fled is the country of water."
"The Land of Water..."
Ever since the Fog Hidden Village in the Land of Water became the "Blood Mist", it has rarely been possible to hear from there, and even the village of Ingot Front, which has always been proficient in intelligence exploration, has not been able to obtain any information there.
What is Orochimaru doing there?
It seems that this matter needs to be discussed with the village again.
Onoki turned around and said to Terratu and Deidara, "The two of you continue to cultivate the return of the earth, especially you, Terra. ”
"Only when you can use this technique without sealing, can I teach you the more defensive Earth Flow Wall."
Since it's a granddaughter's guard, of course, you have to learn defensive techniques first.
With that, Onoki left, leaving Terrato and Deidara behind.
Terracotta and Deidara glanced at each other, and when Onoki left, he definitely couldn't devote himself to cultivation at the first time.
And the first choice of the terracotta is to pull Deidara and find the lovely black soil to play with first.
A little black earth with beautiful short hair was sitting in the middle of the sand, and around the black soil was a castle piled out of sand.
"Brother Chitu, look! This is the castle I made. ”
Chitu nodded with a smile on his face and praised: "What a beautiful castle, Heitu sits in it like a beautiful princess!" ”
For Heitu, who is two years younger, Chitu has always spoiled her as his own sister.
Deidara next to him looked at the sandcastle with an expressionless face, but there was some disdain in his heart.
It's so far from my parents' rock carvings, and this kind of child's thing can be called beautiful?
Suddenly, Black Earth jumped out of the castle, and a pair of snow-white little feet stepped on the sand, and jumped to the side of Red Earth like a little rabbit.
"What ninjutsu did Grandpa teach you today?"
"I didn't teach a new ninjutsu, it's still the ninjutsu from a few days ago."
"Can you show me?"
Looking at the eyes of the black soil that seemed to be flashing with light, the red soil wanted to demonstrate, but in fact, the red soil is not very good at returning from the earth, and today's earth wall that fell to the ground in two seconds is actually the most successful one of the red soil in the past few days.
It's okay if you usually get embarrassed, but in front of the black soil, the red soil wants to maintain his image as a brother as much as possible.
So Chitu tugged at the sleeve of Deidara next to him and muttered, "Come on, come on." ”
Deidara pouted, but still made a seal with his hands, and then slapped the ground, and a square of earth rose in front of him.
The stone wall stood, but the eyes of the black earth were full of tears, and then he sat on the ground and cried.
Because the rising ground is the sand before, and the castle that the black soil spent half a day piling up is on that sandy land.
As the sand rose, the castle of the black earth slid down from the sand and fell in front of the black earth.
Because of the moisture in the sand, which gives it some stickiness, the castle of black soil does not completely crumble into sand, but becomes fragments like ruins.
The sandcastle looks like a city that has been hit by an explosion.
"Wow, wow, wow..."
Hei Tu's cry was very tragic, because this was a proud work that she had spent half a day on, and it actually destroyed a ninjutsu of Deidarago in an instant.
Red Earth quickly crouched down to comfort Black Earth, and then reproached Deidara.
"What are you doing? This is the castle of the black soil! ”
"Apologize quickly!"
However, Deidara ignored the red earth and the black soil that blamed him, and stared blankly at the ruined castle on the ground like the ruins left behind by the explosion.
At this moment, Deidara did not feel guilty for destroying the castle of black earth, but felt an unprecedented feeling of refreshment in his brain!
I think of my parents' discussions about art.
What is art?
Art is eternal?
Is it eternal art to carve from timeless rocks?
Wrong!
That's not art!
Art is not eternal!
Art is the destruction of an instant!
Art is...
(It's cool if you're going to sneak a foot in the night to smash someone else's hard-earned snowman.) Attention! You may be the kind of person you and Deidara are! )
