Naruto Sakaki

Chapter 21 Practice Failure
The practice of ninjutsu starts with the creation of chakra, which is the most basic introductory practice for an ordinary person who wants to become a ninja!
Chakra is the combination of body and spirit, so as to control and condense various potential energies of the body, and finally a kind of energy produced by perfect fusion.

It sounds absurd, but in fact, the difficulty of making chakra is not high.

After listening to Jiraiya's explanation, Nagato immediately sat down with his eyes closed, his hands clasped together, his body and mind were closely united, and within a minute, traces of chakra emerged in his body.

Thinking of the time it took him to condense the first ray of chakra when he first practiced chakra, Jiraiya couldn't help sighing: As expected of the owner of the eye of reincarnation, Nagato's talent is indeed unparalleled.

Xiaonan spent about half an hour, following Nagato, the second to complete the first practice of Chakra from scratch.

Compared to Yahiko and Konan, Yahiko is much worse.His eyes were closed, his small face was wrinkled, his hands clasped together, his legs were almost numb, his body was trembling slightly constantly, and he looked like a severely constipated patient who couldn't poop.

One hour... two hours... three hours... four...

Finally, Yahiko pulled out...ah no, it was a trace of Chakra that was condensed in his body.

"Oh yeah, I finally succeeded! Hey, Sakaki, are you alright?"

Yahiko cheered excitedly for this little bit of success, but was surprised to see Sakaki still sitting on the ground with eyes closed, as if he hadn't finished his practice.

It is true that Sakaki did not complete his practice. He sat on the ground and remained motionless until now. After several hours, he still couldn't condense any new chakra.

Ji Lai was also a little surprised, it was really hard to imagine that someone with such a strong talent would stay in this level for so long, just like him before.

Actually... completely different!
Sakaki refused any extension of the tail of the crane, he had already noticed that his failure had nothing to do with his cultivation ability.

The reason why the new chakra cannot be condensed is because his body structure is too far from normal people. He just maintains a human shape, and the inside is actually an empty shell. No.

In this way, the chakra cultivation methods that ordinary people can use are naturally useless to him.

"Sakaki, take your time, you will always succeed!" Misunderstood, Jiraiya patted Sakaki's shoulder with an expression of encouragement, thinking: Sakaki, who looks so weird but not simple, actually has something on his body. A place that is worse than ordinary people always feels like a sigh of relief.

Konan and Nagato also heartily encouraged Sakaki.

"Hahahaha~ Sakaki, work hard, I will definitely wait for you in the 'distance', try to catch up, I believe in you, don't be discouraged, hahaha..."

Yahiko was very happy to find a place that could surpass Sakaki a little bit, regardless of the fact that compared to Nagato and Konan, he is the one behind the crane!
Sakaki thought to himself: Since you can’t increase your Chakra by practicing, you should increase your Chakra by absorbing others in the future. Anyway, you have been doing this all the time, so let’s continue to do it. I feel that the efficiency of absorbing Chakra is more difficult than ordinary people. The efficiency of bitterness to condense chakra is much higher.

So, it doesn't matter!
at night.

Jilai was also awakened by a faint cry, opened his eyes and saw that the tatami next to him was empty, and Nagato had disappeared.

When he walked out the door, he suddenly saw a group of small figures curled up on the steps, and the sound of crying came from there.

"Nagato, what's wrong?"

Jilai also patted Nagato's shoulder, and then sat cross-legged beside Nagato, seeing the long tear stains on Nagato's cheeks, and his preoccupied appearance, he immediately comforted him warmly.

"If you have something on your mind, let the teacher listen to it."

"Teacher..." Nagato silently raised his head to look at Jiraiya, and felt that there was enough warmth from this person that he could rely on.

"Is it that thing from before?"

Nagato wiped his tears and began to tell his thoughts: "At that time, Yahiko was injured, I was very angry, so my brain went blank, and I entered a state where I couldn't feel anything. When I came back to my senses, that ninja has fallen...

After that, I felt very scared, because of the hatred, the lost self gave each other to... Teacher, I did something wrong, there should be a better way! "

Jiraiya gently stroked Nagato's back, giving him more warm comfort.

"Nagato, I can't tell if it's right for you to do this."

That's right, no matter what the reason, even the most 'legitimate' reason, it's hard to be sure that it's right to kill someone.

Jiraiya also gave the only answer he was sure was right, and gave Nagato full affirmation in this regard.

"But thanks to you, Yahiko was saved, you protected your friend, so what you did should be correct, no one will blame you..."

The confused Nagato listened to Jiraiya's words in a daze.

"Once you are hurt, you will have hatred...On the contrary, if you hurt others, you will attract resentment, and you will feel guilty in your heart. However, because you know the pain, you will know how to treat others gently. This is human beings. .”

"What does it mean?"

"It means you've grown up..."

"Growing...what does it mean?"

"It's about being able to judge for yourself."

Jiraiya's words hit Nagato's heart word by word, like a clear spring flowing through, washing away the confusion surrounding his heart.

"Yahiko, Xiaonan, and Sakaki, they all helped me when I was hungry, desperate, and dying. They treated me as family, helped me, and took care of me. I just want to be with them and protect them, no matter how I feel. What kind of pain!"

This is Nagato's heart.

"That's it..." Ji Lai also smiled warmly, with a hint of relief and appreciation.

Nagato, what a gentle and kind child. With the eyes of reincarnation, he might really be the reincarnation of the Sage of the Six Paths. If he is properly guided, maybe he will really bring order and stability to the world just like the Sage of the Six Paths.

As for Sakaki... Jiraiya also hopes that Nagato is the son of the prophecy at this time.

Day by day passed.

The basic chakra practice has come to an end, and the three of Yahiko have more or less condensed some chakra, and learned the basic chakra control method from the practice of treading water and climbing trees.

As for Sakaki, let alone practicing chakra, he can't even master the practice of treading water and climbing trees, because he simply can't do things like attach chakra to the soles of his feet.

Sakaki found that his yang attribute chakra can only maintain the chakra form around the fruit core and in his body. Once it flows out, it cannot maintain the pure chakra form, and it will immediately materialize—that is, become a rattan whip.

Reflecting on his own unique performance, Sakaki had some clues.
