Chapter Forty-Eight: The Shadows
The dark part, in the original book, is an organization used to set off the protagonist and even the supporting roles, and it seems that only when a bag of rice invades, the dark part of Konoha is angry. Other times, in order to show the power of Yakushidou, in order to show the power of Orochimaru, in order to show the power of Uchiha Itachi, in order to show the power of Uchiha Suzui,...... Time and time again, it has refreshed everyone's perception of this mysterious organization.
But as Yichen, who has lived in the ninja world for so many years, he still knows a little about the dark department. Every member of the team started as a middle ninja, and most of them did not meet the standard of entering the dark part. In a normal team, a mid-ninja can be the captain, but in the shadows, the captain is at least a special ninja.
It is not clear how many shadows there are in Iwa Ninja Village, Yichen is not clear, and it is estimated that there are at least a few hundred combatants. There are many and heavy tasks in the dark department, and basically the time spent on missions outside the country is longer than the time spent in the village. And the members of the dark part of the village don't always show people in the costume of the dark department, but show people in the costume of a normal ninja, and only wear the costume of the dark part during the mission.
So if at a certain time, there are a hundred people in the dark part of the village, then proportionally, the total number of people in the dark part must be above three or four hundred. So are there a hundred people in the shadows at the same time? Yichen is estimated to be there.
For example, the number of people on duty at the headquarters of the dark department is at least double digits. For example, the security work of the Tsuchikage Building is at least double digits, such as the protection of the human pillar force, two human pillar forces, send two teams, it's not much. For example, normal patrol work, such a large village, even if the dark department is not the main force of the patrol, but is a dozen people really enough? Yichen felt that it was enough.
In addition, there are some special areas, such as the sealing area where Yichen lives now, and there are no less than three teams of shadows around.
Anyway, no matter how you calculate it, there must be no less than a hundred dark ninjas in the village who are on the post at the same time.
As for the dark department outside the village, a pursuit mission may take more than ten days, and how many traitors will be hunted down and killed by the dark department. In addition, it is similar to the patrol of the border line, the infiltration of enemy countries. Anyway, with such a long border, how many dark patrols do you need to dispatch?
In addition to the land abroad, there are so many big and small countries, is there a few fewer people in each country?
In addition, the dark department also has a holiday, if a dark department is on duty two-thirds of the time, does that mean that the above data has to be multiplied by 1.5?
Anyway, the number of people in the shadows is a very large number.
But the structure of the dark department is very strange, according to our normal perception, such a large organization should be divided into several levels. But in fact, there are only three layers in the entire dark department: ordinary team members, squad leaders, and captains. There should be several captains in the dark part of the village, and they belong to the earth shadow tube of Onoki, and they are relatively independent of each other. And there are many squad leaders under each captain, and this number is so large that it feels like a feeling of confusion.
In fact, it is not surprising that the dark department fights alone in small squads, and it is not a large-scale organization like an army.
The main job of the Dark Force Commander is to assign the tasks of each squad reasonably. Instead of taking the whole team together as everyone imagined before.
In other words, there are so many dark parts scattered all over the ninja world under the commander of a dark army, can it be summoned? Yichen was skeptical.
Of course, this does not mean that the shadows will always be a team out on a mission. When encountering some difficult tasks, the captain will send multiple teams to act together, and a commander will be assigned on an ad hoc basis, and sometimes the captain may lead the team himself.
Yichen was placed in the second team of the Dark Division, and the captain codenamed Xiaoxiao was an elite shinobi who wore a mask depicted with strange rock patterns. When he was in the Tuying Building, Yichen saw the true face of the other party, an uncle in his thirties, and he looked quite silly. But when you put on the mask, you only have a sense of mystery and power.
Follow the other party all the way to the dark base, and on the way, Xiao told Yichen the correct way to enter the shadows, how to avoid various traps, how to avoid warnings that cause perception enchantments, and so on.
Then he took Yichen and received a set of standard equipment for the dark part, including two identical ordinary masks, several sets of clothes, and weapons.
The dark department performs the task, and the logistics are all provided by the village, and the task pay is also higher. But the tasks are very frequent and the tasks are difficult.
After receiving the equipment, Yichen was arranged to participate in training, which was divided into two parts. One part is theoretical training, including various codes, codes of conduct, and ways of doing things. The other part is the actual battle, where the Shadow Ninja will understand the strength of each member before being grouped, and then assign teammates in a targeted manner.
In addition, the strength of the members of the dark department is required, and it cannot be a drag. So the necessary training is still necessary.
Last but not least, there is a skill to be learned by joining the Shadows. For example, swordsmanship, body arts, ninjutsu, illusions, etc., can be chosen. But the level will not be high, and there is no medicinal diet to help with cultivation.
Yichen was a little entangled, and his current path had been basically set. I asked him to choose a skill, and he didn't know what to choose.
After two years of growth, Yichen's chakra volume has increased from 53C to 120C, which is 1.2B. Since the amount of chakra has come up, Yichen's next step is to learn a B-level ninjutsu, and he is currently saving contribution points, but although he has not spent a large amount of money in the past two years, his income is also small, and he has not been able to save much.
However, the increase in the amount of chakra did not help much until Yichen was able to use B-grade ninjutsu proficiently. This amount of chakra can't even be used by the water of the previous Seichi Sect to break through the cold current.
Yichen's biggest improvement is in ninjutsu, due to the improvement of mental power and the improvement of control, Yichen has made extraordinary progress in the simplification of ninjutsu. First of all, the three body techniques have been simplified to a single seal, which is almost instantaneous.
There are 4 seals for the waterline technique, 5 seals for the earth flow wall, and 6 seals for the Tulong spear. The development of the new version of the waterline technique is also very gratifying, and now Yichen has been able to apply the principle of water attribute to this ninjutsu well.
The pressure that ninjutsu can transmit is much higher than before, but there is a distance limit for this transmission, and the limit distance of the new version of the waterline technique that Yichen has tested is 30 meters, more than 30 meters, the water pressure cannot be controlled, and ninjutsu will be deformed and will lose its power.
Due to the completion of basic development, Yichen named this ninjutsu the technique of water pressure line. It's just that although this ninjutsu originated from the waterline technique, it has now been changed by Yichen to be completely unlike.
Yichen estimates that the power of this water pressure line technique is close to B-level, and the consumption of chakra is about 25C, and the number of seals required to cast it is currently 7. It's Yichen's strongest attack right now.
In addition, Yichen's stamping speed is between 4 and 4.5 marks per second.
This data is already terrible at the level of middle ninja, if the current Yichen is on the virtuous book of the middle ninja assessment. Suffice it to say, the time it took for Kenmoto to rush from his starting position to Yichen was enough for Yichen to perform at least 3 ninjutsu.
It's enough to beat Kenmoto into a sieve, of course, the real battle situation won't be so smooth, and Kenmoto will dodge. But he will definitely not be able to get close to Yichen anymore, and he will inevitably be dragged to death by Yichen in the end.
So Yichen's battle mode has actually been finalized, that is, to snipe the opponent with ninjutsu from a distance.
Now that he suddenly learned that joining the Dark Department had the benefit of learning a skill, Yichen was a little overwhelmed. If this benefit is a B-level ninjutsu, then no, he will definitely not be entangled. Embarrassing is embarrassing, this benefit is not up or down.
After all, it takes time to practice this skill. My own practice has already been arranged, how can I add new training items.
After hesitating for a while, Yichen found the captain Xiao in the interval of training, informed the other party of his situation, and asked the other party to help him think of a way.
After listening to Yichen's description, Xiao did not hesitate at all, and said, "Choose the instantaneous technique." You are a ninjutsu ninja, and when you arrange a mission for your squad, you will not choose a mission that requires speed. But there are exceptions to everything, if you are fast enough, not only will it be convenient to carry out the mission, but it will also be easy to escape at a critical moment. ”
Yichen patted his head, yes, why didn't he think of it, Yichen's previous battle mode rehearsals were all against ninjas of the same level. It can be said that if you meet Zhongnin, then Yichen will not panic at all.
But if you meet Shangnin, don't you even have a chance to escape? Thinking of this, Yichen almost broke out in a cold sweat, he was sheltered by loess before, and his sense of crisis was much smaller, and he almost hurt himself.
After thanking Captain Xiao, Yichen returned to the training office and reported to the staff. Received a scroll of teleportation, then sat down to the side and read it carefully.
Instantaneous body technique, which netizens in the previous life called one of the advanced three-body techniques. Able to achieve fast movement over short distances, the original abort water and water gate both make it very slippery. It is a ninjutsu that can fundamentally change the combat effectiveness of a ninja when used to the extreme.
According to the description, the teleportation technique is the kind of ninjutsu that can achieve multiple bursts in a row after a seal. But it's hard to achieve that, and even if there are outbreaks in a row, it's only a few times.
In the final analysis, the teleportation technique is still used for short-distance flashing, and is not suitable for long-distance travel.
In order to realize the use of instantaneous body technique to travel long distances, two conditions must be met: first, it can be continuously performed; The second is that there are plenty of chakras.
The former has two options, either to cast the seal without a seal, or to increase the seal speed to be faster than the speed at which the teleportation can move. There are still a lot of elites in the ninja world who can take the turn of the former, and it can be said that the instantaneous body technique is the most common ninjutsu that the ninja world can perform without a seal.
But it's not because it's simple, it's because it's practical, and everyone is willing to spend time on it.
As for the latter, if you want to break through in the speed of sealing, it is a fantasy, and the instantaneous word of the instantaneous body technique shows the speed of this ninjutsu. Even if Itachi God has a speed of 6 seals per second, it is impossible to continue the instantaneous technique by continuously sealing it.
In addition, the instantaneous technique is a C-level ninjutsu, and each time it is cast, it will consume nearly 2C of chakra, which is destined not to be used for a long time. It is estimated that only ninjas like Senju and Uzumaki can use the teleportation technique to travel long distances.
But this does not mean that learning the instantaneous technique is useless, in the real war, the ninjas on both sides are entangled with each other, if you encounter an invincible ninja, use the instantaneous technique to transfer the position, and it will not take a few times to reach the side of your companions, so the instantaneous technique is a sharp weapon to save life on the battlefield.
