Chapter 08: Eight-wake up

What is chakra?

First, a kind of body energy must be extracted from all the cells in the human body. In layman's terms, it is talent, because there is an upper limit to the amount of physical energy that the body can produce, and the difference in talent of each person means that the upper limit of this physical energy that each person can draw from the cells is different. ; then it requires spiritual energy accumulated through numerous practices or experiences; then these two energies are extracted from the body at the same time, and then the two energies are tempered and synthesized to form chakra.

Ninjas usually store a large amount of chakra in their bodies. Once they start to release chakra and need to continuously replenish new chakra, their bodies will consume energy and physical strength to restore chakra. For all ninjas, restoring chakra is a subconscious act like breathing.

Regarding physical energy, during the period of human development, especially in adolescence, the body's energy surges most. If a ninja's talent is good enough, there will be so-called genius ninjas who become monsters between the ages of 10 and 18. Kakashi is a 12-year-old Jonin, and Itachi is a 12-year-old Mangekyo. However, the total limit of body energy is about 20 years old, when the human body is basically fully developed. If a ninja has developed his body energy to the limit at this time, but is still only a chuunin, it means that the talent is average; and only the talent is outstanding. , it is possible to become a Jonin!

But once you are over 50 years old, especially after 60 years old, physical aging is inevitable, so a powerful ninja will inevitably decline in strength at this time. As long as you keep practicing, your spiritual energy can theoretically continue to increase. In addition, laziness of will is also a major factor affecting mental energy. Therefore, Kakashi's strength did not make a qualitative leap after the Third Ninja War, which had a lot to do with his depression.

Therefore, for a ninja to be powerful, he first needs a body with outstanding talent, and secondly, he must maintain continuous practice and a tough will, so as to ensure that he has strong chakra.

Then how to release ninjutsu?

After chakra is formed in the body, it is necessary to activate this chakra energy through the action suggestion or guidance of "forming seals", and this whole process requires a certain amount of chakra control ability to achieve. The more sophisticated and accurate the chakra The more carats control skills, the more advantageous they will be in performing ninjutsu.

For example, with the same powerful fireball technique, Sasuke released a fireball the size of a basketball for the first time, while Itachi was able to release a terrifying fireball several meters in diameter for the first time. This is because Itachi has better chakra control skills than Sasuke and can use chakra faster and more efficiently. Specifically, it takes about 150 units of chakra to actually perform a C-level fireball ninjutsu. In order to successfully release this ninjutsu, Sasuke actually consumed more than 200 units of chakra. The actual effect is only the size of a basketball. Itachi, on the other hand, only needs 170 units of chakra to release a fireball of several meters in diameter.

Therefore, when different ninjas perform the same ninjutsu, there are not only differences in "consumption", but also obvious differences in "efficiency", thus resulting in vastly different effects. And "efficiency" is reflected in the speed of forming seals and the familiarity with Ninjutsu, which is the so-called level of practice.

The speed of seal formation is easy to understand. The faster the seal formation speed, the faster the release of ninjutsu; and the familiarity with ninjutsu, for example, for example, the same Muji Ninjutsu Rasengan, the fourth generation Hokage and Jiraiya can do it. To release it instantly with one hand, Kakashi needs both hands to work together as hard as milking. The speed at which the Rasengan is formed is not at the same level. This is why Kakashi has never used the Rasengan in combat even though he knows it. Naruto, on the other hand, relied on a large number of shadow clones like plug-ins to max out his skill proficiency...

Therefore, if a ninja wants to quickly release powerful ninjutsu, he first needs fine chakra control skills, and then through continuous practice,

Increase the speed of forming seals, and at the same time master the ninjutsu you are familiar with. If your own chakra attributes are consistent with the ninjutsu, you will often get twice the result with half the effort.

This is why Shimizu's water escape ninjutsu is extremely powerful: he has a "pure water constitution" (only one water attribute) and has practiced unremittingly for nearly 20 years. Of course, he has superb chakra control skills and can quickly The speed of forming seals, and the unparalleled proficiency in the Water Release Ninjutsu. Although he later developed fire escape and thunder escape chakras, fire escape was just an introduction, while thunder escape was relatively better, but he was proficient in only two ninjutsu: the recently completed A-level ninjutsu thunder escape, Chidori and C-level ninjutsu: Thunder Release and Earth Walk.

"I've never had a clue about this one-hand seal..." Qing Shui muttered. Recalling the moment of life and death a few days ago: after using the "Dance of the Three Suns and Moons" to get close to the captain of Sunagakure, Chensha, the killing move was actually blocked by the opponent, and the opponent also launched the "Wind Blade" at the same time. A-level wind escape attack ninjutsu. If he hadn't subconsciously abandoned the long sword and instead used the seal to cast the "Chidori", I'm afraid...if he could have used the seal with one hand to activate the Chidori...then the outcome would probably have been more than just cutting off one of the opponent's hands. , and he didn't have to suffer such fatal trauma.

How did Itachi do it? ! Maybe his memory of many so-called plots has been blurred, but he can't forget Kakashi's horrifying look of shock at the moment Itachi formed the seal with one hand. This skill is not just for show, but can kill enemies unexpectedly. Shimizu himself is a master of swordsmanship. He can attack with one hand and use confusion or his back. As long as there is a visual blind spot, the moment the enemy cannot see it, he can use the one-hand seal to perform ninjutsu to kill the enemy with one blow. Effect.

It's just that...our Weasel God was born just last year...

"Hey..." He sighed. He didn't have that kind of outstanding Ninjutsu talent, so independently developing Ninjutsu and one-handed seals were his weaknesses. The helpless Qingshui lying on the hospital bed was covered with bandages. After discovering this fact, for a moment, Qingshui felt that he had more bandages than Danzo...

Don’t think so, there are really many...

"Young man, why are you sighing so much? Don't you know that you are lucky to have saved your life?" The female ninja with medium-long blond hair and a hot figure said displeasedly.

This is Tsunade, one of the three ninjas!

Glancing at Tsunade, he remembered the past where he tried to learn medical ninjutsu again. "Hey..." He sighed again. It was really too complicated... If you want to learn medical ninjutsu, you must not talk about your natural talent. , to master medical ninjutsu, you must first have very precise chakra control capabilities, and secondly, you must learn a lot of professional knowledge, as well as the brains and perseverance to put it into practice.

So he later gave up on medical ninjutsu and focused on practicing swordsmanship, basic three-body jutsu, and various water escape ninjutsu. It's not that it's good or bad. He chooses his own path. He doesn't have the talent to be an all-rounder, so he can only do everything he can do...such as Konoha style swordsmanship, such as teleportation, such as Talking about various water escape ninjutsu, and the Chidori, which he has just fully mastered.

"Ah?! Didn't you hear what I said!" Tsunade gave Qing Shui a violent blow.

"It hurts, it hurts!" Qing Shui was in pain. Tsunade was not joking this time, she was really exerting her strength. "Tsunade-senpai, I am still a seriously injured patient..."

"Being able to lift you out of the intensive care unit means that you are out of danger. You can't die from an attack of this level..." Tsunade trusted her medical skills, but the next sentence still made Shimizu's face change drastically, " At most, the wound will rupture again or something, and it may become infected."

"..." Qing Shui instantly felt that it would be wiser to shut up, because he knew that Tsunade was not joking, she really meant it. The Tsunade in front of me, the princess of the Senju Clan, has a temper as fiery as her body and is extremely powerful, so don't make her unhappy casually. You must know that Jiraiya, who was also a Sannin, had several ribs broken by Princess Tsunade because of peeping in the bathhouse, and almost went to heaven... This rich man has no sense of importance, or has no scruples!

"That's right, young man, after experiencing an S-level mission, he was able to survive successfully and his limbs are sound. Isn't this enough? What do you mean by sighing all the time?"

"Tsunade-senpai, how are my team members?" Rather than reflecting on the previous battles and one-hand seals, he actually wanted to know the situation of the three of them. He just came out of the intensive care unit this afternoon and didn't wake up until the evening. So far, no one has told him what happened next.

"Eh? Didn't you ask me when you just woke up?"

"Oh! Yes! Senior has been in the intensive care unit like me..." Qingshui couldn't say he was disappointed. As a qualified ninja, he had the patience to wait for such a person to appear and tell him all the follow-up of the matter. He believed that even he could survive, and his team members even more so! Of course, what he hopes more in his heart is that Lanhu comes to visit him in person... Ahem, it doesn't mean only Lanhu, of course Gray Eagle and Starfire can also... Maybe they will hug him excitedly?

I imagined that scene in my mind and paused for a few seconds.

"Let it be Lan Hu..." He finally made a decision in his heart. If Lan Hu came to visit him, then he would be ready to take that step, at least to have a start. Who says ninjas can't fall in love? !

"I tell you, it's better to rest peacefully and recuperate. With an injury like yours, no matter how fast it is, it will take a month of recovery for the wound to fully heal. If the wound opens again during the process, I can't guarantee that it won't be infected and leave serious sequelae. You can take care of yourself." Tsunade arranged some of her clothes and prepared to get up and leave the ward. "I will let the people in the medical class help you recover as soon as possible. Remember, don't move around these days. Okay... the old man is calling. I'm dead. Just think about it and you'll know that you must be calling me again. In the middle of the night...it's really..."

"Tsunade-sama, Hokage-sama has something important to ask you." A Konoha ANBU suddenly appeared at the window of the ward.

"I know, I know, let's go." Tsunade waved her hand impatiently and left the ward.

Tsunade left, but Qingshui did not notice this, because he discovered a fact that shocked him: just at the moment when Tsunade noticed the ANBU coming, he also sensed the rapid approach of the chakra in front of him. This has never happened before. You know, in the past, his perception ability could only be considered ordinary, and his perception range was only a few meters around his body. And just now, he actually discovered a dark part at a distance of 100 meters without relying on vision.

Mutations? ! Benefits after the disaster? ! Traveling through Goldfinger? !

These are small things.

Now he urgently wants to know the limit of this range of perception. The Anbu in front of him disappeared in an instant and moved towards the Hokage's office building at an extremely fast speed... So Qingshui felt it carefully, and he had a rough idea. Within the limit of 120 meters, he could sense the existence of chakra, but only I can roughly feel the strength of chakra, but I can't tell who it is. This ability can directly improve his survivability on complex battlefields. In the past, it was because I was afraid of being attacked by GG in advance, so I practiced the teleportation technique desperately. Otherwise, who would practice the teleportation technique so diligently? !

"Ah! I forgot to say thank you to Tsunade... Forget it, let's wait until the injury is healed." Qingshui suddenly remembered that he hadn't thanked Tsunade yet. After all, it was the other party who saved his life, and he could talk to the Sannin. He is also happy for the existence of one to refresh his sense of presence. And saying thank you is the most basic etiquette.

I remember that when he first came to this world, he was a little excited when he saw those familiar names. Now he has long been immune to it, and he will not be able to substitute his own emotions because of personal preferences. Although he may understand these people, the other party does not understand him, and the two parties do not share the same sorrow, so there is no emotional basis at all. The best proof of this is that Namikaze Minato has always kept a polite distance from him.

Rasengan, if there is no accident, it will really be a lifetime regret... Itachi is only one year old now. If you think about how to have a good relationship, you must learn the one-handed seal. But Itachi used the one-handed seal that was 60 years after Konoha, and it was only Konoha 43 years ago - it was too long... He was not sure when Itachi developed the ninjutsu to develop the one-handed seal. system……

Kakashi is still reliable. This kid is obedient and a genius. If he takes good care of it, he will definitely be able to develop a whole set of Chidori series of thunder escape ninjutsu in advance. And this is due to his contribution. He can definitely learn this set of lightning escape derived ninjutsu.

This is the most practical one at the moment.

Suddenly he was stunned, and a powerful chakra broke into the range of his perception. And in just a few breaths, they had already arrived at the residential building opposite the hospital.
