Chapter 63: The Owl's Suggestion
Returning from Captain Xiao, Yichen was a little worried. The suggestion that Xiao gave to Yichen just now was to let Yichen learn a set of B-level knife skills that were relatively advanced. This surprised Yichen.
Xiao gave an explanation: Since Yichen has broken through, the rapid increase in strength is inevitable. One of the changes brought about by the growth of strength is that the opponents encountered in the future will definitely be stronger, after all, the village will definitely give full consideration to the strength of the dark department when assigning tasks to the dark department.
And Yichen is now facing a stronger opponent, what he urgently needs to improve is not the attack power of ninjutsu, in the battle of the upper ninja level, it is actually based on C-level ninjutsu and B-level ninjutsu. Yichen has several C-level ninjutsu, although there are not many B-level, but there is also a water escape to break the cold current (this is a melee ninjutsu, Yichen has always felt inconsistent with his own tactical style before, so he hasn't practiced it well), and the water pressure line technique and illusion technique that are far more powerful than ordinary C-level ninjutsu - body binding technique.
Therefore, Xiao felt that there was no need for Yichen to learn in a short period of time in ninjutsu, and if he had this time to learn B-level ninjutsu, it was better to develop the technique of water pressure line in depth and increase the power to a real B-level.
Since Yichen doesn't urgently need to learn ninjutsu, the focus should be on physical arts. As a quasi-ninja, Yichen will have to lead the team alone sooner or later. When the time comes, it will be impossible for Yichen to let this big short board wait for the enemy to attack. It's like Purple Electricity, Purple Electric is an individual ninja, and there are only a few C-level ninjutsu that he has learned before. Long-range attacks are her shortcoming, so last time, with the help of the reward of the S-level mission, she learned an A-level ninjutsu and filled in the biggest shortcoming.
It's just that Zidian's practice belongs to the type of one-time meal support. Zidian hasn't learned any B-level ninjutsu, and now she has learned an A-level ninjutsu, so it can be said that if Zidian can't become a shadow level, then with this A-level ninjutsu, then in ninjutsu, she will never be dragged back. In other words, she won't have to learn ninjutsu anymore.
What Xiao means is that Yichen now spends a little more time learning a set of physical techniques that are more capable than his current level, so he won't have to spend time to make up for this shortcoming for a long time in the future.
Xiao's analysis is very reasonable, for example, Zidian learns ninjutsu, in fact, it is not to be used in battle, but to be able to target the means when facing some turtle shells, so Zidian does not need to practice reducing the time of sealing and simplifying the number of seals.
Yichen is the same, he learns swordsmanship, not to kill the enemy through swordsmanship, but to win time for himself to perform ninjutsu through swordsmanship, so Yichen doesn't need to learn swordsmanship with strong attack power, but just learn some swordsmanship with strong defense.
In addition, Xiao also mentioned a reason that made Yichen very excited, if he learned swordsmanship, he didn't need to post any tasks to ask someone for guidance, and his three teammates could guide him.
The only thing that makes Yichen entangled is that once he learns swordsmanship, he will definitely spend less time developing ninjutsu, and his physical talent is average, and his talent for learning swordsmanship has been felt before, and it is also very average. This is very different from my previous positioning of my own development direction.
Remember http://m.et for a second
Influenced by martial arts in the past, Yichen believes that as long as he plays a certain aspect to the extreme, he will definitely become a first-class master. So Yichen has been increasing the speed of ninjutsu before. Yichen believes that as long as he uses ninjutsu fast enough, he can be invincible.
But just now Xiao gave himself two problems, one is: if there is a person who is stronger than himself against him, then whether he who has obvious shortcomings is a target and will basically be killed in seconds. The second is: If you lead the team in the future, even if you can protect yourself, how can you protect your companions and subordinates?
After this analysis, Yichen is still more convinced, can he compare with an elite forbearance in terms of knowledge?
It's just that habits are difficult to change, and I've always thought of myself as a ninjutsu-type ninja hiding in the back before, but now I suddenly want to charge and practice swordsmanship, which makes Yichen a little uncomfortable.
Although it was awkward, Yichen, who had actually accepted Xiao's suggestion, decided to go to the exchange office first to see what suitable knife techniques could be exchanged.
Usually, Yichen is not qualified to watch the introduction of B-level ninjutsu, and if you must watch it, you have to pay some contribution points. But now it's different, now Yichen has a chance to redeem, so you can watch all the B-rank ninjutsu introductions for free.
This kind of good thing, where is Yichen willing to let go. It's decided, don't leave today, don't read all the B-grade ninjutsu introductions, and don't go home.
The people at the exchange office are also accustomed to Yichen's situation, and basically every ninja who can be exchanged will go through all the introductions of various B-grade ninjutsu, and for ninjas, gathering intelligence has long become instinctive. Even if you can't learn it yourself, it's good to know what your future opponent might do in ninjutsu.
There are so many B-level earth escape ninjutsu in Iwa Ninja Village that Yichen is a little surprised, but there are very few ninjutsu with other attributes. However, the staff also gave Yichen a list of B-level ninjutsu in other villages, but this list only had some descriptions from bystanders, and the order of seals remembered by those who had seen it.
Other ninjutsu introductions are easy to say, only Yin Escape Ninjutsu Yichen is the most interested, last time just from the introduction of ninjutsu, Yichen had a flash of inspiration, and learned the chakra nature change of the yin attribute. It's just that Yichen was disappointed that such a big ninja rock village didn't even have a complete B-level Yin Escape Ninjutsu.
In the village's Yin Escape Ninjutsu catalog, there are several B-class Yin Escape Ninjutsu fragments, which are memory fragments that the Intelligence Department has read from the brains of enemy ninjas. The ninjutsu that was then written after summarizing and speculating based on these fragments could not be learned at all. Although he didn't plan to learn B-level Yin Escape Ninjutsu, Yichen was still a little disappointed when he saw this situation.
There are some B-level illusions, but most of them are still supportive, and a few are attacking, and they can't be used in battle.
Sure enough, it was right that I didn't choose to take these two paths.
Because his mental talent is strong enough, he is already able to cast a C-level illusion with a B-level effect. At that time, I was still hesitant, or I would simply take the path of illusion or retreat. If he had known that the village's shortcomings in this regard were so obvious, Yichen would not have been so entangled.
Finally, there are physical and knife techniques.
To Yichen's surprise, there were a lot of B-level ninjutsu in the village, such as hardening techniques to increase one's defense, such as ninjutsu that condensed rock fists for battle, etc., which can be said to have brought the defensive advantages of Tu Dun to the extreme.
There aren't many knife skills, but there is indeed a set of knife skills that have obvious advantages in defense, and it seems that Xiao suggested learning knife skills by himself, and it was because of him. It's just that at this price, 25,000 points contribution, it's a bit expensive. The corners of Yichen's mouth twitched, he saved two S-level tasks, and only saved 10,000 points, but he didn't even have half of the contribution points.
Forget it, let's practice more of the C-level sword skills you are learning. Sharpen the knife and cut firewood. Yichen comforted himself like this.
After returning to the 18th squad, when he heard that Yichen was going to learn swordsmanship seriously, Zidian was not shocked, but gave Yichen a basic exercise manual: "If you still use the same way you practiced C-level swordsmanship before, to learn B-level swordsmanship, it is impossible to learn it." To learn the knife well, first follow the method described in this basic manual and lay the foundation for a year. ”
Yichen's eyes were about to pop out after hearing this, learning ninjutsu wasn't so time-consuming before, even if he didn't have enough chakra back then, and he had half a year, he was almost getting started. This knife technique, it takes a year to build the foundation alone?
After the crossing, except for physical exercise, it seems that there is no aspect of learning that is so strenuous. If you spend a whole year laying the groundwork, how can you have time to learn anything else?
As if guessing what Yichen thought, Zidian said: "This knife foundation is not as simple as learning knife skills, and it takes into account physical exercise in the learning process, that is to say, you can appropriately reduce some of the time for physical exercise." ”
Yichen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, that's okay.
The quality of the physique is related to the amount of chakra, Yichen will not relax his physical training no matter what, since practicing the foundation of knife skills can exercise his body by the way, then spend more time, Yichen will endure it.
Yichen flipped through the corner with the manual in his arms, and the contents of the manual were written in great detail. The main idea is that knife art is a special physical art, and it is necessary to have a certain physical fitness to exert its power. However, unlike the physical arts, the physique required to perform the sword technique is different from the physical skill required.
Many knife moves require the body to have a certain degree of coordination before they can be performed, and in order to perform them well, the strength of the various parts involved in the process must be sufficient.
For example, when a knife is swung, in addition to the strength of the arm that swings the knife, it is also necessary to have sufficient strength in the waist, shoulders and other parts that carry the knife.
The foundation of this sword technique is the training technique of strengthening the parts involved in the same way.
No wonder Zidian would say that practicing the foundation of sword skills can also strengthen the physique to a certain extent. This is indeed true, but this enhancement is relatively one-sided, and it is different from Yichen's overall improvement physique. Therefore, in addition to practicing sword skills, Yichen also has to be equipped with appropriate physical training methods to train other parts.
It's just that there is not much time at the moment, although the 18th team has completed an S-class mission this time, the original patrol mission has not been completed, and it has to set off again after two days of rest. Therefore, Yichen's main task now is not to start practicing the basics of sword art immediately, but to prepare for the next practice on border patrol.
The basic cultivation of swordsmanship requires a lot of props, and Yichen has to prepare in advance. In addition, since he promised the white cat to take the danzi back to his residence in the natural energy seal, he also had to arrange a small nest for the danzi.
Although Yichen has never raised cats and dogs in his previous life, he has never eaten pork and seen pigs run, so he simply arranged a small nest, and then prepared some climbing ladder things that let the group climb up and down to play. Although Dango is a ninja cat, it is also a cat, so you should like it.
