"Itachi, it's time to get up and get ready for your father's guidance."

As the sunlight streamed down the window into the room and fell on Itachi's face, he kept his eyes closed.

For as long as he can remember, for the first time, he got up late.

Since childhood, Fugaku's education for Itachi has always been carried out according to the standards of ninjas.

Things like being late and late never happened to him.

But this time, Itachi woke up a long way later than he was supposed to, so much so that Artoria next to him began to urge him to get up.

On the bed, the weasel, who was lying quietly as if he was asleep, heard the sound and quickly opened his eyes.

In fact, he slept very lightly and his face was full of exhaustion.

Compared to the previous sleep of four, Itachi actually only slept for more than an hour last night.

The heart battle before going to bed made him unable to calm down his inner sleep, so that he lay in bed for a long time.

The first battle lasted only two hours.

But two hours is a short time, but for a ferret, it's a long time.

Because in the process, he never had an effective offensive.

From the beginning to the end, the weasel was passively defensive.

Whenever she finds an opportunity to counterattack with the help of ninjutsu, Artoria will predict his attack line in advance as if she knew the future, and attack again with an unimaginable dodge.

According to her, this is a combat consciousness called "intuition".

When a person initially has this kind of combat awareness, the skills learned will be more smoothly integrated into the rhythm of battle.

There will be no sudden hesitation or pause in the middle of the battle, and the skills learned in the mind are too cumbersome to know which one to face.

However, when Artoria said the word "cumbersome", Itachi suddenly realized that the scope of knowledge he had recently encountered was so vast that he had not yet reached the level of familiarity with each of them.

His summary of his first attempt at mental warfare last night was that he had learned so many things in a short period of time that he couldn't put them to good use.

In the past year, I have been exposed to too many things in a short period of time.

Physical Tempering, Swordsmanship, Qi and Blood Stimulation, Ninjutsu, Magic, Nature Change, Magic, Form Change......

Pick up any of these and it will take months or even years for everyone else to study.

Even if you have good talents, you can't master them well and master them in just one year, and integrate them into your own combat rhythm.

Therefore, this "cumbersome" knowledge only adds to its own burden.

When the enemy is attacking, he often pauses because he thinks about how to fight.

In the face of Hui and others as opponents, this flaw has not been reflected for the time being.

Because of the actual gap between myself and them, it is good for myself to ignore this shortcoming.

And the father and Uchiha Aoto are completely tested towards themselves, and they have no idea of actually fighting.

But in the psychological battle with Artoria, Itachi suddenly realized that his performance in the battle was almost "full of mistakes".

Stupid, he summed up a night, and can only use one stupid word to describe himself.

In the battle, I made several selective mistakes,

For example, when he needed to harass and delay time with ninjutsu, he chose to use physical skills to fight with Artoria, so that he was directly defeated;

For another example, he wants to imitate the war of attrition and doppelganger confusion used by Hui and others in battle...... When waiting for tactics, it was almost the first time that Artoria saw through it.

As for why?

Artoria also saw the process of training with Hui and them, and she knew very well what she was capable of.

I don't have time to integrate the knowledge in it, so I throw this kind of hidden weapon to besiege it, use the shadow clone to set up a maze to test the enemy, and deliberately expose the flaws...... and so on, and choosing to reproduce these tactics has no effect at all.

And about this, I should have understood it in the battle with Uchiha Aomon.

At that time, he easily saw through his tactics and found his true identity from the many shadow clones, and it was obvious that this copying was flawed.

But I didn't find a way to make up for it, but used it again in a reproduction way!

It's stupid!

Artoria didn't even need to use high-level swordsmanship with magical powers, just stabbing, picking, slashing, and slashing...... This series of basic swordsmanship, coupled with the strength and speed brought by her own physical strength, crushed herself in the audience!

I've always been a little too confident!

No matter what, as long as you are careful enough, you can easily rely on your talent to "reproduce" this.

And this talent of easily copying other people's actions and abilities also makes me forget to integrate them!

When fighting against people who are weaker than him, Itachi can easily take advantage of his strength, speed, and skill.

And when it comes to actually fighting opponents who are stronger than himself, Itachi quickly catches on too many of his flaws.

Whether it's in ability or character.

"Do you think I'm a little too ...... Arrogance. ”

Itachi got up to wash, looked at himself in the mirror, and couldn't help but ask Artoria.

In the past, in order to hide his true thoughts, he got used to holding back.

But now that there is such a person who can communicate with him and confide in each other, he is not so willing to hold back.

"Arrogance?"

Artoria looked confused.

"It's about the truth that you can't chew too much."

"I'm wondering if I've been learning too much, too fast. ”

"Just like last night, in the face of an opponent like you, I have no way to turn what I have learned into an advantage, but instead turn tedious knowledge into a burden."

"Before that, I didn't even realize it, and I was confident that I was strong enough."

"Rather than constantly learning all kinds of new abilities and mastering all kinds of powerful techniques and techniques, I should probably focus more on the skills I am familiar with."

"It's not the ability itself that is powerful, it's the people who use it."

Artoria: "......"

Arrogant?

She didn't know how to explain Itachi's evaluation of herself.

She even wondered if Itachi was showing off his talent.

But of course, she agrees with this statement, and at the same time is surprised.

Itachi's age has surprised Artoria too much.

"You're not arrogant, you're just something special that makes you different."

Artoria pondered for a moment, "I agree with what you said about what you said, it's not the ability itself that is powerful, but the person who uses it. ”

However, ...... word "delving" needs to be supported by a relatively complete amount of knowledge. ”

"It's like the formation of the two energies of magic and chakra is very similar, and when the amount of knowledge you have accumulated reaches a certain stage, there are actually many techniques that are common to combat, but it is a different term, or a way of manifestation."

"The path formed by all the techniques of fighting is ultimately the result of victory. ”

Therefore, what you need now is to keep learning all kinds of things, fill your knowledge base, and when your knowledge reaches a certain stage, you will try to "delve in", and you will find that after having a complete and basic knowledge structure, the process of studying will be much easier. ”

It's like a change in nature.

When a person learns to refine chakra and directly engages in the practice of changing nature, there is no doubt that he or she is taking a path out of thin air.

However, if you have chakra, you will first try to learn the Escape Technique, and in the process of using the Basic Escape Technique, you will inadvertently understand the nature change and understand the so-called attributes, and you will unconsciously master one or two of the three stages of the nature change.

Then it will be easier to really try to start the practice of changing nature.

At the very least, the road ahead of us has an illusory step, not nothing.
