The Thousand Faces of Konoha's Weird Man

5 The poor rely on mutation, while the rich rely on technology

A peaceful life always passes quickly. During this year, Zoji has been thinking about how to survive better in the coming turmoil. In fact, there is no good choice in the world of Naruto. Just be a ninja, learn more advanced ninjutsu, stand firmly by the protagonist's side, and insist on breathing and not die. It is enough.

However, the reason why ideals are called ideals is because they are difficult to achieve.

For more than three hundred days, Sakichi had proposed to his nominal brother several times that he wanted to enter a ninja school, but he was ruthlessly rejected every time.

Having said that, although the two have lived together under the same roof for a year, there has been no progress in their relationship at all. Most of the time, you still maintain the realm of "Have you eaten?", "You're back" and "I'm leaving". If you ask a relative who you don't know well at all to pay for you to study in a ninja school, it's called love if they are willing to do so. If you don't want to, it's natural.

So Zoji has nothing to complain about. When he has time to complain, he might as well think about how to improve his life and improve his own strength within a limited scope.

Compared with the coexistence of crises and opportunities in troubled times, peacetimes are full of malice towards speculators. Under the supervision of ninjas who come and go, it is basically an impossible task to stir up trouble in Konoha. . There once was a successful guy named Orochimaru. Even if he stood at such a height, he still couldn't avoid the fate of being kicked out of the village.

"Zaoji-kun, what are you thinking about?" Seeing his "runner" getting slower and slower, the dark green figure in front turned back directly, "If you continue to maintain this speed, our 189th competition will The winner will be me again.”

The enthusiastic voice interrupted Zoji's thoughts, and the panting boy looked at the energetic Jarhead in front of him with slight envy. His physical strength is simply a bottomless pit, and the hole seems to be getting deeper and deeper.

This was also the first friend Sakichi made in this world, Rock Lee, the direct disciple of the Blue Beast of Konoha.

In the first days when he was rejected by Moonlight Hayate, the only thing Saki could do was to exercise, which was also the easiest way to improve his strength. The top level of physical skills is immeasurable. Didn't you know that Metkai almost got a big ending just by relying on his boxing and kicking skills?

Even Zoji, who has no fitness knowledge, understands that the basis of physical exercise is physical strength, and long-distance running and swimming are the best events.

That time coincided with the destruction of the Uchiha clan, and there were cat-faced masks everywhere. In order to prove that his physical exercise was not for spying on intelligence, Sakichi had to find someone with a good temper to accompany him.

So is there anyone more suitable than Metkai and Rock Lee who wander around Konoha all day?

For the simple Rock Lee, you don't even need to use euphemistic methods to get to know him. As long as you show a certain fighting spirit, he will be happy to sweat with you.

"Phew, you won today too." After a year of nutritional supplements and unremitting exercise, Zoji has evolved from a skinny and skinny boy to a strong young man. Combined with a lot of anaerobic exercise, his figure looks much stronger than Rock Lee, but he knows his own business. In terms of physical skills alone, he is not even qualified to carry Rock Lee's shoes. Not to mention the bottomless physical strength of the other party, which fully shows that the physical fitness of the two is not at the same level.

After all calculations, Saki's physical strength was only enough to support him to run around Konoha Village every morning, but Rock Lee could run until lunch, and could even compete with someone by standing on his hands with both hands. As for the beast-like Metkai, he is not a creature on the planet.

Not far away was the gate of Konoha. This morning's morning exercise could be considered a successful conclusion, and Sakichi didn't want to feel Metkai's brainwashing tricks. After seeing the white teeth that could reflect the morning sun, he decisively chose to admit defeat and leave first as a sign of respect.

"I want to go back and practice swordsmanship." Finding a very suitable reason, Zoji said goodbye to Xiao Li.

"Come on" Rock Lee gave a thumbs up and showed his signature smile, "I look forward to my Konoha Fluid Technique competing with your Konoha Style Sword Technique"

Is this what the hot-blooded idiot thinks about every day? Zoji mechanically shook his head with a bitter look on his face.

Moreover, is that Konoha-style swordsmanship that he practices? What he practices is the pure Dance of the Three Crescent Moon. This is the only knowledge legacy left to him by his ancestors in Sakichi's memory regarding survival skills.

Moonlight Hayate doesn't agree with Saki becoming a ninja, so naturally he won't teach him about ninjas.

The traditional Mikazuki Dance and the Mikazuki Dance used by Moonlight Hayate are no longer the same thing. It is a pure physical technique that relies on strong power and speed to achieve the state of cutting everything with three swords in one second.

As for Konoha-ryu's Mikazuki Dance, it has long been an improved swordsmanship from the second generation. It combines taijutsu with ninjutsu, taijutsu with illusion, and developed a systematic set of fighting techniques.

This is also the reason why Mikazuki Munechika is a short sword, while Moonlight Hayate uses a long sword. The radius of rotation of the Kodachi is small, it is more flexible, and it can cut more swords per unit time. After the improvement of the second generation, the shadow clone can be used to easily achieve the state of three swords per second that can only be achieved through hard training. The user only needs to ensure the speed of approaching the opponent quickly, a certain amount of cutting strength and the shadow clone to lure the enemy, and then the user can easily attack the enemy. Kill your opponent.

It is understandable that the ninja who performs the technique replaces the small tachi with an ordinary tachi. The attack range is larger and the damage caused is wider. This is the so-called "one inch longer, one inch stronger".

But from Sakichi's point of view, this improvement does have its merits, but it makes the one-hit killing power of the Dance of the Three Suns and Moons go from a first-line physical skill to an eighteenth-line one. The only saving grace is that the flexibility is improved, the hit rate is improved, and the difficulty of practice is reduced.

After all, in this era, the swords are no longer used to deal with armored warriors, but ninjas wearing thin clothes. Speed, flexibility and weirdness are the keys to victory in physical skills.

"It's a pity that the ending is to die at the hands of an opponent that cannot be killed."

Saki erected a wooden stake in front of Moonlight Hayate's apartment, holding a short sword on his shoulder. Running and accelerating, the sword flashed and the wooden stake passed by, a set of movements flowing smoothly. Saki appeared behind the wooden pile and sheathed his short sword, showing a hint of disappointment.

There were only two new wounds on the wooden pile. The wounds were not deep enough to cover half of the wooden pile.

After all, I still haven’t perfected my Dance of the Three Suns and Moons.

As for his cutting power, it seems that it needs to be strengthened. If he has enough sword speed and strong physical strength, even Fan Tie can cut this solid wood pile into four pieces in an instant.

This is called Iihe

The so-called Iai is a technique that relies on the friction at the moment the sword is unsheathed to increase the speed of the blade to a terrifying level, and ultimately split the opponent in two.

Ma Ji called Yu Yueguang Hayate's attack method of shadow clone drawing a knife as Iai. He was really hairless and short-sighted. The power between the two is simply different. As for the power of Iai, you should have some intuitive understanding if you think about Konoha White Fang. White Fang's sword is a few minutes shorter than the one in Sakichi's hand.

Of course, Moonlight Hayate's sword-drawing method is also the result of improvements in the second generation. The long sword on his back is difficult to unsheath, so he has to be prepared before the battle. This is why samurai's long swords are placed on their waists. In order to ensure mobility, ninjas obviously cannot wear them like this, so they can only sacrifice the speed of their strikes to ensure that they can hit people.

Legend has it that the Tai'a sword of Qin Shihuang was also a long sword, and Ying Zheng also liked to carry the sword on his back. This was the embarrassing situation when Jing Ke was unable to draw the sword. In the end, the eunuch reminded him to turn the sword upside down with the hilt facing down before pulling out the sword and killing the assassin. So in real life, the guy who can draw a long sword or a long knife from the upper part of his shoulder is definitely the reincarnation of a gibbon.

"Why do you think so much? I can't even compare to a little finger of Moonlight Hayate now. I'd better work honestly and make money." After clarifying his thoughts, the most important thing for Saki at this stage is to save money. .

Being a ninja is a money-consuming job. Supplies, ninja tools, props, and various scrolls are all inseparable from money. Although there is no way to learn ninjutsu yet, it does not prevent Saki from saving money first. What's more, the most effective ways to improve one's own strength are mutation and technological advancement. The latter is safe and effective, but has the disadvantage of burning money. Before there is no way to obtain mutations, Zoji should be prepared to advance in technology.
