The Thousand Faces of Konoha's Weird Man

24 As long as you take advantage of fate and don’t pay attention, others can change you.

"This guy adapts to the role pretty quickly." After sending Sakichi out of Gen's stronghold and back to the inquiry room just now, facing Danzo who was completely motionless like a statue, Kabuto Yakushi stated plainly, "But I think He is not as honest as he seems, and the reports he submitted are all avoidance and trivial, and there is not much of value.”

"The fact that he is doing things for us is very valuable information in itself." Danzo finally put down his hands that were supporting his chin. "At least, from the current point of view, he is still doing things for us very honestly. I like to follow Deal with smart people, because they can easily understand what the gap in strength means."

"Danzo-sama, what do you mean?"

"Evaluate it. If it is indeed a talented ninja, don't waste his talent. Let him contribute his part of the strength for the prosperity of Konoha." As Danzo's words fell, from the shadows of the room, In the middle, several ANBU wearing cat-face masks walked out.

"His talent in Ninjutsu is considered average, but his learning ability is good and he can master most Ninjutsu in a short period of time. He has not yet been found to have the talent to create new Ninjutsu. Currently, we only know that he can use it skillfully. A ninjutsu of the Water Release series." Pushing up his glasses, Kabuto Yakushi expressed his opinion as someone who had many contacts with Sakichi.

"His physical skills are top-notch. Among his peers, except for the ninjas of Hinata and Metkai's line, his sword skills are truly unique." Another ANBU hidden in the shadows took over Yakushi Kabuto's words. , "And his swordsmanship system is independent of the Konoha-style swordsmanship. It has a very strong suddenness for the enemy he encounters for the first time. If the supporting ninjutsu is developed in depth, he will have a high-priority assassination attribute. In attributes From the looks of it, he is a rare taijutsu-type ninja, no matter how you look at it."

Compared to Yakushi Kabuto's report, this unknown guy's report clearly gave Danzo greater stimulation.

There were a few wrinkles on the remaining half of the face, obviously thinking about something. In conjunction with his head, Danzo's still intact arm was tapping the table rhythmically, and the people around him were also very discerning and silent.

Ninjas are actually weapons.

But there are no perfect weapons in this world. What high-ranking people need to do is to use the right weapons on the right enemies. Looking at the ninja world, even Naruto and the Second Pillar have their own shortcomings. Even if it's the Six Paths of Reincarnation, it's no big deal if you let them destroy a village. However, if you let them sneak into a place silently and kidnap an important person, it might be a bit overwhelming.

The same is true for ANBU. It doesn't take a ninja with outstanding combat ability to become a qualified ANBU.

In Danzo’s view, an excellent Anbu must have at least the following advantages:

A smart mind can accurately grasp the key points of a task, overcome difficulties, and come up with the best solution.

He has a tough character and has a mature belief in completing the task by any means necessary. Even if the task fails and his misdeeds are exposed, he can resist criticism and pressure from all aspects through his strong will.

With unrivaled physical skills, a powerful kill with one fatal blow, or the ability to escape with an unparalleled speed, even if he dies, his body must not fall into the hands of the enemy.

Strong perception, the ability to detect potential threats and track mission targets in advance, and the ability to shake off those who want to follow you, and you must not fall into the control of the other party's means.

To put it simply, ANBU is like a fighter jet in an air battle, with the longest radar detection range, the most powerful missiles, and the fastest speed.

Compared to ninjutsu, what Danzo values ​​more is that ANBU members have powerful physical skills and the ability to resist genjutsu. The key point is not the ability to release genjutsu, but the ability to resist genjutsu.

Therefore, perception is a very important attribute. It cannot be said that ninjas with strong perception will not fall into illusions, but it is undeniable that ninjas with strong perception are generally better than ordinary ninjas in resisting illusions.

As for physical skills, they are the ultimate means to kill enemies and protect yourself in the dark.

The battle of ninjas in the shadows does not have the grand momentum of fighting balls, nor does it have grand scenes comparable to war, nor does it have the opportunity for all kinds of strange summoned objects to appear. When two Anbu met, and one of them was unprepared, the winner would be decided in a matter of seconds. Just like Hatake Kakashi was able to kill nine Anbu, it was mainly because his teammates had no defense at all.

Physical skills are the most important factor that determines the outcome of such encounters. Strong enough physical skills can ensure that even if you are attacked by a sneak attack, you can make the optimal response. At the very least, you can run fast enough. A feat worth boasting about, both in pursuit and escape. Ever since Kakashi Hatake betrayed himself once, Danzo has paid more and more attention to the physical training of new members.

Therefore, Danzo was attracted by a guy with a little cleverness and huge potential in physical skills.

But it’s not time to draw a conclusion yet: “Continue”

"Hi," this was Shanfeng's voice, "Based on the last contact, I judged that his mental state is not suitable for practicing illusion. I didn't even feel decent mental energy, and his thinking was very chaotic and not suitable for weaving. The kind of dream that seems to be real. Therefore, I can only give a low rating to his illusion."

"Is that so?" Although illusion is not a compulsory course for ninjas, for Anbu, if they don't understand illusion at all, it will be difficult to survive in this dangerous world.

After all, as long as I run fast enough, eyes like Metkai's who can use the most powerful illusions can't catch up with me.

This kind of person has only been one of a kind in many generations of Konoha. Even if Saki's physical skills potential is great, there is still a big question mark as to whether he can reach the level of Metkai.

At this time, Danzo hesitated again

"I don't quite agree with Yamanaka-sama's opinion." Many times, for two people in a competitive situation, there is no need for any reason at all to oppose the other's opinion, just "because you proposed it, so I object", There will be no problem.

In Kisuke's view, as long as he can cut the opponent's face, his weight in the eyes of Elder Danzo will increase. With this simple thinking, he deserves to be out of character.

But now, it is precisely because of his idiotic behavior that he has undoubtedly changed his direction and added points to Saki, "When I recruited the children of the Hidaka family before, I was also present, and I personally performed the illusion on him. Although the situation As Mr. Yamanaka said, his thinking is chaotic. I can only see scattered memory fragments in his head. But it is undeniable that he is sensitive to illusions, even the suggestive secret arts of our Kurama clan. , with such outstanding concealment ability, it still caused great stimulation to his spirit, which shows that he is very sensitive to illusions and has an instinctive sense of confrontation. I think this may be the reason why he cannot practice illusions, and also His advantage is that he does not need to learn illusions at all, he only needs to rely on his talent and respond to illusions well."

"Oh" Regarding the specific information about this matter, Kabuto Yakushi will not write down all the details in the mission report like he writes a novel. What's more, Kabuto Yakushi doesn't know much about the Kurama family's genjutsu at all. , naturally we cannot make any unreasonable comments on the results. But the situation was a little different now. When Danzo turned to Kabuto Yakushi, the latter carefully told everything that happened that day.

"So that's it." Danzo was lost in thought and tapped the table faster. "In that case, let's start ANBU-style training for the children of the Hidaka family. If necessary, we can give him some tasks to practice his execution ability."

"So the direction"

"Field surveillance and assassination. By the way, let's strengthen our perception training."
