Konoha's Destiny Twins

Qingshui's words were actually a bit harsh, and this was a sign of a bottleneck in his strength.

Isn’t it in a state of explosive growth in strength? Why did this happen all of a sudden?

The Sandaime Hokage immediately paid attention to it. He asked with concern: "Where did you encounter difficulties in training?"

"Yes..." So Qingshui told the Sandaime Hokage the ideas derived from Shisui's conjecture.

Shisui wanted to integrate Sharingan illusion into the teleportation technique. Inspired by this, Shisui came up with the idea of ​​integrating illusion into swordsmanship to confuse the enemy.

But his illusion skills were really bad... So he thought of improving the three clones of "Dance of the Three Suns and Moon" into shadow clones with physical attack power.

In this case, "Dance of the Three Suns and Moons" is a killing move that can launch a total of 4 fatal attacks in one move.

However, wanting to cast three physical clones at the same time... is impossible for him now.

At most, he can only cast a shadow clone and a water clone nearly at the same time, but this is far from the minimum requirement to cast the Dance of the Three Suns and Moons.

Therefore, only the art of ghosting and cloning can help him solve this problem.

"Hokage-sama, do you think this conjecture is possible?"

"It's difficult..." The Sandaime Hokage pondered for a while, and then slowly said, "But it makes sense to try."

"And according to your thoughts...only the art of multiple shadow clones can meet your requirements."

And this technique happens to be in the Sealed Book... Is this a coincidence?

"Teacher Kosuke once mentioned to me that the Nidaime Hokage once listed this technique as a forbidden technique... so..."

The Sandaime Hokage nodded: "I see."

Therefore, Qing Shui will make a request to see the book of seals.

In that case...

The Sandaime Hokage thought for a while and finally made up his mind: "I can directly teach you the art of multiple shadow clones."

"Ah?" Qing Shui was stunned.

this……

But his goal is not just the art of multiple shadow clones.

If the Sandaime Hokage taught him this technique now...

Will he still have the opportunity to read the sealed book?

"But let me remind you in advance that this technique is indeed very risky...so are you sure you want to learn it?" the Sandaime Hokage asked solemnly.

Can he still say no?

I feel like I missed out on hundreds of millions...

"I am sure."

"Okay, starting tomorrow, I will start teaching you this technique."

"Thank you, Hokage-sama!" In that case, let's make use of all the resources at hand first, "I want to increase the power and attack distance of my wind escape attached to the long sword...Do you have any suggestions, Hokage-sama?"

Although Qingshui has already started to learn Wind Escape, it is still not enough...

You must know that when Asuma used Feiyan in the original work, he had an attack distance of more than half a meter.

"About this... I don't use this type of weapon, so I don't know much about it."

"But I can introduce you to someone who happens to be an expert in this field."

"Baiyun Yeshan, an elite Jonin. His best skills are swordsmanship and wind escape."

I've heard of him as a ruthless man, and his Changfeng Sword is quite famous. I remember his famous stunt is called - Vacuum Sword.

It was a sword technique that used the right hand to hold the sword behind its back and swing the sword in the hand to create a powerful wind blade, which could be used for both attack and defense.

He took a completely different development path from Asma...

You can indeed ask this senior for advice on the fusion of swordsmanship and wind escape.

"Then I will ask this senior for advice another day."

"Qingshui, do you have any other difficulties?" the Sandaime Hokage asked amiably.

"I have actually always had a conjecture about one-hand seals, but I have no clue." Regarding the one-hand seals, Qingshui was really confused and didn't know where to start.

"One-hand seal..." The Sandaime Hokage had a look of nostalgia on his face.

"I also studied this when I was young, but the results were not ideal..."

"I have fought against this type of ninja before, but without exception, they are all blood successor ninjas."

"In the end, I guess the key to this may be related to the blood inheritance limit."

"So I don't suggest you spend time on this." The Sandaime Hokage said sincerely.

"Okay, I'll pay attention." I was still a little unwilling to give up so simply.

Leave that for later.

The Sandaime Hokage asked again: "Do you have any ideas or plans for your future development?"

"What's in front of me, for a long time... I can't see it yet."

So far, Water Escape and Thunder Escape have been slowed down a bit, and the focus is on studying the integration of Earth Escape, Wind Escape and swordsmanship, and making up for the shortcomings of illusion and sealing.

It sounds simple, but it would be really difficult for an untalented ninja like Shimizu to get involved in these unknown areas.

These things alone would take him several years, maybe even longer.

As for what else he can do after this, he really can't think of it.

"It's okay, you are still young and still in the learning stage... In the eyes of many people, you are already comparable to the Sannin." Soon, the Sandaime Hokage changed the subject again, "However, learning alone cannot Let you grow into a truly strong person.”

"In my eyes, you are still a little worse than the Sannin."

Qing Shui was silent for a while, and then said: "I have self-awareness, and I still need more accumulation."

"Of course, you don't need to be discouraged. You have done a good job. As long as you persist... one day you will be able to come up with a truth that is unique to you."

"Once upon a time, I wanted to train Orochimaru to be a truly strong man... because his ninjutsu talent was the best among the ninjas I have ever seen."

"Even if you are not as good as me!"

"It's a pity...it backfired." The Sandaime Hokage sighed, feeling quite regretful.

"But I have seen Orochimaru-senpai's moves... He is really strong." Qingshui still remembers Orochimaru's unpredictable wind escape and indestructible earth escape.

If he can perform that level of Wind Escape and Earth Escape, then his methods against the enemy will be more diverse in the future.

Orochimaru's ninjutsu talent is truly something you can't envy.

"But he didn't really understand the essence of ninjutsu."

"I know that now he no longer looks down on the ordinary ninjutsu he once studied so hard..."

That's because people are studying Sharingan and Wood Release, and even immortality...

How much can the ordinary Five Elements Escape Technique achieve in this world limited by blood inheritance, in this world dominated by eyes?

Is there any future?

"Ninjutsu does not necessarily focus on killing the enemy."

"The battle between ninjas is more about the ability to obtain and analyze intelligence."

"So Ninjutsu can also be a means to disrupt the enemy's judgment, interfere with the enemy's intelligence acquisition, and even change the combat environment."

"Being flexible and using various ninjutsu alternately is what a ninja should really learn and study."

Qingshui suddenly remembered that the Sandaime Hokage in front of him had achieved the title of "The Strongest Hokage" by relying on the seemingly simple Five Elements Escape Technique.

In the previous battle to pursue Chiyo and the Yondaime Kazekage, he dared to face the enemy's army of tens of thousands by himself!

It is said that the Sandaime Hokage relied on his unparalleled fire escape and earth escape to create a large area of ​​magma, thereby breaking Rasa's magnetic escape and causing Sunagakure to suffer a big loss.

It's a pity that he didn't have the chance to witness that unprecedented battle, otherwise it would have inspired him, who also had to rely on the ordinary Five Elements Escape Technique.
