Konoha's Itachi Reappearance

Chapter 375

Chapter 3 Seventy
"Even if you continue to practice like this, it won't have any effect."

This part of the knife technique has been practiced by Saii quite skillfully, and there is no room for improvement, so Itachi immediately made a sound, interrupting Saii's practice.

Sai followed the sound and looked towards the place where Itachi was hiding, and the latter came out from behind the tree.

"Mr. Itachi, why are you here?" Sai raised his eyebrows lightly, wondering.

The boy's appearance was somewhat similar to Sasuke, so when he saw the expression on his face, Itachi couldn't help but think of his younger brother who should be still on mission at this time.

Itachi walked up to Sai, and didn't explain the purpose of coming to him, but said directly: "The real essence of this set of sword techniques you use lies in the unpredictable changes, so there is no need to be too rigid about those moves."

Saii did not have a particularly long training time when he was a child, so the Anbu sword technique he learned was not perfect.

Seeing that Itachi didn't answer his own question, Sai didn't ask anymore, because he had already guessed what Itachi said from the beginning of his appearance.

"Then what should I do?"

Sai didn't hold back, after all, Itachi was now his mentor, Jonnin-sensei.

Itachi didn't answer him first, but pulled out a dagger commonly seen in the ninja world from behind, and threw it to Sai.

"Practicing the sword technique, although Kunai can barely do it, but the structure of the two sides is different, so there will still be problems in the details."

This knife was given to Itachi by Minato before he left Hokage's office.

The distribution of ninja tools is usually applied to the village by the ninja himself, but sometimes, the village will also supply some ninjas who are good at using ninja tools.

Ordinary ninja tools are actually not too high in value.

"Thank you."

Sai took the sword, looked around, raised his head and said to Itachi.

He pursed his lips slightly, obviously not quite used to this feeling.

Itachi observed the emotional ups and downs in Sai's eyes.

As far as he knows, the child's parents were originally members of Danzo's subordinates.

During a mission, both his parents died.
As an orphan and was favored by Danzo since he was a child, Sai's character is unavoidably withdrawn.

Fortunately, thanks to the efforts of Minato, Itachi, and Shisui, the roots were disbanded, and Sai was spared from continuing to be influenced by Danzo's thoughts.

The cruel training and elimination mechanism at the root will lead to distortion of human personality.

Distortion of personality will make people feel empty, which is why the root members are all used as tools, but they are still loyal to Danzo.

Because Danzo is good at grasping the weakness in people's hearts and filling that void with his own thoughts.

"Don't say thank you. Although I am your teacher, we are also Konoha's ninjas and companions."

Itachi stretched out his hand and patted the young man's thin shoulder, and said, "I didn't finish what I said just now. Although you have practiced this kind of saber technique for a long time, I don't think it is suitable for you."

The essence of Anbu's sword technique lies in the erratic and unpredictable changes, so almost all of them are gloomy tricks that kill people invisible.

Sometimes, the ninjutsu that a person practices can also represent or be able to affect his heart.

So now, Itachi's mind has changed, he doesn't want Sai to continue practicing Anbu's sword skills.

"If I don't practice this, I have nothing to practice."

Sai said slowly, according to his personality, he would not easily say such things to others, but from Itachi, he could feel a sense of identity that was not clear.

It was as if the man in front of him, who was not much older than him, had the same or even more unfortunate experience as himself.

Honestly, it’s a sense of belonging to the same kind.
"Don't worry, I'm your teacher, of course I won't watch your practice get into trouble."

Itachi smiled and said, "In addition to sword skills, you are also very good at chakra control."

"If you can control your own chakra and integrate it into a knife attack, you can greatly increase the destructive power."

No matter what kind of chakra attribute Sai has, as long as he uses it properly, he can make his sword technique even more powerful.

With Sai's current level of sword skills, although it is impossible to beat Zhong Itachi, it can be replaced by other opponents of the same level, and it is enough for a period of time.

"I understand, but if you only increase the power, this has a lot of disadvantages."

Sai quickly realized that just by improving the power of swordsmanship, if he encounters a dexterous enemy, no matter how powerful he is, it will only be a waste of effort.

If you only practice in this way, there will indeed be great disadvantages.

"Yes."

Itachi nodded happily with a smile. Although this child Saii did not have good training conditions like Naruto and Hinata, he is not bad in mind and talent.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been personally favored by Danzo early on.

As for the solution to the problem, Itachi had already thought about it.

Saii's chakra control talent, in addition to combining it with sword skills to enhance its power, is the most suitable.
"Before integrating Chakra into the practice of knife skills, I plan to start teaching you how to use illusion."

Itachi said that swordsmanship is not his best skill, but in terms of illusion, except for Shisui's kaleidoscope pupil technique, Bie Tianshen, basic illusion, in the current village, no one is better than him.

Of course, if one day Kuruma Yakumo in Izumi's class can fully utilize the abilities of the Kurama clan in her blood, she may be able to surpass Itachi.

"Illusion."

Saii had never thought about practicing illusion.

"The reasonable use of illusion in battle can improve the shortcomings of how to hit the target."

This is the idea that Itachi just had. Among the graduates of Naruto Sasuke, the two of them are not the ones with the strongest chakra control ability.

It's the girl named Haruno Sakura and Sai in Sasuke's class.

Although all three of them had full marks in their graduation grades, Sasuke had been trained by Itachi since he was a child.

Sakura came from a commoner family, and Sai had never received guidance in this regard. They had only done the most common and basic exercises in the ninja school.

This is also what Itachi can think of, it is the most suitable for him to teach, and it is also the most suitable for Sai's development direction.

Although he knew a little about Shishui's knife skills, he could use speed to make up for his offensive methods, which Saii was not suitable for.

"Then please teach me."

Sai thought for a moment, then nodded at Itachi.

"Before you start learning illusion, the first thing you need to experience is the feeling of illusion in your body"

Itachi said, slightly raised the index finger of his left hand towards Sai.

In Sai's mind, Itachi's voice was still echoing in his ears, but the scene in front of him had changed drastically in an instant.
